The Royal Palace, the Imperial Study.

Yu Wenduan reviewed the folds while looking up in the direction of the door from time to time.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Xi has arrived."

"Brother Huang, I'm here!" No one has seen it, but it has heard it.

Yu Wenxuan was wearing a water-blue robe today, and his long hair was tied up with a dark blue hairband and draped behind him. Holding a folding fan in his hand, the fan was still unfolded before entering the door.

"Brother courtier, visit the royal brother." Yu Wenxuan closed the fan and bowed respectfully.

"Is it that hot?" Yuwen Duan smiled angrily, "Sit down, there is fruit on the table." ”

True feelings are often reflected in small places, between Yuwenduan and Yuwenxuan, although they are first monarchs and ministers, and then brothers. But even though the courtesy of the monarch and the minister is greater than the sky, the warmth of blood thicker than water contained in brotherly love is unmatched by any other relationship.

After Yu Wenxuan sat down, Yu Wenduan put down the fold in his hand: "Where did you go crazy yesterday?" ”

"Yesterday......" Yu Wenxuan smiled embarrassedly, "I took Yue'er to eat snacks." Then I went to Shaohua again. ”

"You kid, it looks like you're getting along well with Yue'er these days, huh?"

"Brother Huang, in fact, I have been thinking about it since I came back from Liangzhou. Since ancient times, marriage events have been the words of the parents. The marriage of the younger brother is not only the last wish of the father and the queen mother, but also the care of the royal brother's sacred heart. If Xuan'er shouldn't, wouldn't it be disloyal and unfilial. Besides, that girl is Yue'er and not someone else, I originally thought that I would have no chance in this life, but when I saw her again, I decided not to let go. ”

Yu Wenxuan glanced at Yu Wenduan, the two brothers happened to look at each other, smiled slightly, and then said: "I am your younger brother, the Prince Xi of the Great Zhou, and the one who wants to protect this vast territory and thousands of people for the imperial brother. Isn't the family country, the country, the so-called country, just made up of countless small families? I used to feel that the battlefield was changing rapidly, and if I couldn't come back, I was afraid that I would delay other girls. But now I don't think like that, the eldest husband has something to do and something not to do, if even my loved ones can't protect well, what qualifications do I have to defend this territory for the imperial brother. ”

Yu Wenxuan's words made Yu Wenduan feel emotional. In his impression, this was the first time Yu Wenxuan had said these words so seriously since he was a child.

Yuwenduan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Grown up." ”

Yu Wenxuan was stunned for a moment, stared at his brother and blinked, scratching his head embarrassedly.

Growing up is often a matter of an instant, just like the righteousness you used to pretend to be awe-inspiring, no matter how much you like it in your heart, you also say that this king is dedicated to the people, in order not to delay the girl's life in case of accidents. I thought I was so kind and tragic.

But how can there be so many freewheels in life, and more of them are involuntarily.

So one day you suddenly figured it out, patted your chest and said confidently that the husband should stand up to the sky, I will guard the family and country, and I will protect the beauty!

"Anyway, why did the imperial brother call me here today?" Yu Wenxuan diverted the topic.

"How's the matter going with your investigation?"

Speaking of this, Yu Wenxuan's expression couldn't help but become serious. Although the suspicion was on the head of Wang Yuwengong of Rongjun, there was no substantial evidence, so he still did not dare to make inferences. It's just a matter of discussing this kind of thing with Zhang Shaohua, but Yuwenduan is the king of a country after all, and it is inappropriate to say it before the matter is clarified.

"It's a bit of an eyebrow, but there's no conclusive evidence yet. So for the time being, I can't say my guess in front of the imperial brother. ”

"Oh?" From Yu Wenxuan's words, Yu Wenduan heard some clues. I am vaguely aware that there is not a simple thing behind this matter.

"It's okay, you go and find out as soon as possible, we have to give someone an explanation as soon as possible."

"By the way, there's one more thing." Yuwen Duan said again.

"Brother Huang, please speak."

Yuwenduan looked at Yuwenxuan with a smile: "Yue'er just came to Chang'an, and I took her out more in my spare time." Your wedding is tentatively next year, take advantage of this time to cultivate and cultivate your relationship. ”

"Good...... Good. Yu Wenxuan's tone was a little shy.

On the road from the imperial study to the palace gate, Yu Wenxuan is so old that he doesn't know how many times he has walked.

"Xuan'er."

Queen mother! In a trance, Yu Wenxuan heard a call, he raised his head suddenly, and then suddenly thought that the queen mother had already left him for a long time.

A faint smile appeared on his face, and the queen mother was probably happy for the decision she had made. Raising his head and looking at the sky, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he seemed to walk more briskly.

Who can say for sure what the future holds? Follow your own heart, if you think too much, it will be a mediocrity. Some decisions may not be regretted in the future, but if you don't do them, you will definitely regret them.

……

Bohai City, the capital of Bohai State.

"Father."

"You're back."

The young man standing in the hall was handsome, with a shallow stubble on his cheeks, and bloodshot eyes. If Yu Wenxuan saw it, he would definitely recognize that this person was the man he met in the tavern that day who claimed to have come to Chang'an to see a doctor for his father.

"Sit down, how about going for so long this time?"

Shi Guangtong sat down and said slowly: "The Great Zhou Emperor died, the crown prince Yuwenduan ascended the throne, and the tenth son of the emperor, Yuwenxuan, recovered the southwest, and was named Prince Xi after returning to the dynasty. I believe my father already knew about it. In addition, I sent my subordinates to contact that person, and I could feel that he was very unconvinced by his third brother who had ascended the throne, and the child felt that this person could be used by us. ”

"What about Yu Wenxuan?"

Indeed, as the rumors say, Yuwenduan is extremely fond of him. This person is young, not only has a heavy army, but his own martial arts are also extremely high, and Zhang Shaohua and Tian Shaotu next to him are by no means idle. I had a brief contact with him, but it gave me a feeling that I couldn't see through. Shi Guangtong recalled the conversation with Yu Wenxuan and the others that day.

"I don't know if he's really so naïve or pretending." Shi Guangtong smiled helplessly and added, "It's not like a royal person at all, but more of a Jianghu atmosphere." ”

Shi Mu looked at his son for a long time, and then sighed and said: "The world only knows that the Great Zhou has Yu Wenxuan, but they don't know that my son Wen Taowu is not under him. Child, the king intends to oppose Zhou, you and I are ministers, and we should do our best to assist the king to complete the grand cause. This world has been peaceful enough for a long time, and it's time to change the world. ”

Shi Guangtong's eyes were hot, and he put his hands on his laps and wiped the beads of sweat from his palms.

The Bohai State is a corner of peace, and has been attached to the Great Zhou Dynasty for a hundred years, and has been providing the dynasty every year. But in this generation, the King of Bohai was ambitious, unwilling to become a vassal of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and worked hard for more than ten years, selecting talents and talents, and making the originally weak Bohai Kingdom gradually become stronger, swallowing Boliao and Goryeo, and expanding its territory more than twice.
