He never doubted the power of those family lords, even in the palace, there must be many eyeliners planted by these people. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Therefore, he only said lightly to Liu Jin: "Get up, remember to take care of your mouth." Otherwise..."

Liu Jin hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the slave will be tight-lipped." ”

He kowtowed again before he dared to stand up.

Li Shimin said lightly: "You go to pass the decree, and the other three princes come to see me." ”

Liu Jin bowed down, and then retreated.

Although all the princes have reached adulthood, even the youngest of the three princes, Li Changkong, has reached the age of eighteen, and it stands to reason that they should all move out of the palace and even release the king, but Li Shimin has not established a prince for a long time, and the heirs are difficult, and there are only three princes by his side, so they all arranged accommodation for them in the harem.

Walking in the harem, Liu Jin had a feeling of being on his back.

He knew that His Majesty had already killed him. The Heavenly Family has been ruthless since ancient times, and he is just a minion, but he sees things that he shouldn't see, which is the way to die.

After a while, he came to Shufangzhai, where the eldest prince lived.

The reason why he didn't go to the queen's palace first was because the queen had no children under her knees, and Li Shimin did not have the most noble concubine, so he followed the rules of the eldest and youngest, and he came to the residence of the eldest prince first.

The two eunuchs were guarding on both sides of Shufangzhai, seeing the red man in front of the emperor, they were the eunuch ancestor-level figures coming, with a flattering look on their faces, and bowed down at the same time, one of the little eunuchs asked: "The little one has given a salute to his father-in-law, dare to ask your old man what is the important thing to come here?" ”

Liu Jin said expressionlessly: "Our family came to announce the summons, and His Majesty summoned His Royal Highness to the imperial study." ”

The little eunuch hurriedly said, "Please wait a while, and the little one will go to report to you immediately." ”

Liu Jin shook his head and said: "Our family still has to go to the other princes to pass the decree, so we won't wait here, the will will will be conveyed by you." ”

With that, he left Shufangzhai.

After conveying the same will to the second prince, he went to the residence of the last prince.

The mother of the third prince has a humble status, but she was born as a palace maid, not like the mother of the eldest prince and the second prince, who was born in a family, and there is no foreign aid outside the palace, so even the third prince has not been valued by the emperor since he was a child, and his residence is extremely remote in the harem, and the place is small, and even the eunuchs on duty are a little careless, and there is no one outside the house.

Liu Jin shook his head, and couldn't help but feel a little sorry for His Royal Highness the prince in his heart.

Although the emperor was jealous and even hated the family lords, but at the same time he had to rely on them to govern the country and control the army, so the relationship between the two was actually extremely complicated.

The door was wide open, and Liu Jin walked in, only to see two little eunuchs talking and laughing softly.

When they saw Liu Jin, they realized that they had neglected their duties, and they couldn't help but be very frightened, knelt down and kowtowed: "Ancestor, the little one is wrong, please spare the little one." ”

If the palace eunuch felt unhappy, he casually mentioned it in front of the three princes, in order to give him some face for the old man, even the three princes, who had always been good-tempered, would not let them go lightly this time.

It must be known that it is not once or twice that they have bumped into each other as the third prince of the north, but in the past, His Royal Highness the prince did not care about them and did not punish them. Over time, they really slack off.

Liu Jin said lightly: "Get up, you can't do this in the future." ”

If he had seen this situation in the past, he would have made these two little eunuchs take off a layer of skin, because as the leader of the eunuchs in the palace, he had always regarded these little eunuchs as his own disciples and grandchildren, and although they were also quite defensive, they were extremely strict in some aspects, and they would never tolerate slacking off in their duties.

As the slaves of the Son of Heaven, they cannot be made to think that they are useless.

It's just that it's different now, he bumped into His Majesty's secret, and felt that his life was in danger, and now his mind was full of thinking about how to save his life, how could he have the time to pay attention to this idle matter?

When the two little eunuchs heard that this old ancestor would not be blamed, they couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said in unison: "Thank you for the magnanimity of the old ancestor. As he spoke, the two of them kowtowed at the same time, and then they all stood up.

Liu Jin waved his hand and said: "Our family is here to pass on the decree on behalf of His Majesty, ordering the third prince to go to the imperial study to see the driver, do you want to go to the court?" ”

One of the little eunuchs nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, old ancestor, the little one will go to the court." As he spoke, he hurriedly ran to the apse to see the third prince.

Another little eunuch stood respectfully aside, not daring to say a word.

Not long after, Liu Jin heard footsteps coming from the apse.

A young man with a delicate appearance and eyes as clear as water, about seventeen or eighteen years old, stepped in from the apse, and when he saw Liu Jin, a smile appeared on his face, and his smile was like a spring breeze, very affinity, and said, "Is Father-in-law Liu here to deliver the decree for his father?" ”

When Liu Jin saw this prince, even though he was still not in a very good mood, he still showed a smile, he nodded and said, "That's true, Your Highness, please go with the minions." ”

In the palace, he has always treated His Royal Highness the Third Prince differently, not because he is optimistic about the future of His Royal Highness, but because His Royal Highness always looks at him with a respect, not flattering, but genuine respect between people.

There is a comparison to know the gap, even if the other two princes often send him a lot of rare treasures, every time they see him, they seem very respectful, but Liu Jin has been in the deep palace for decades, and has seen the darkest and filthy things in the world, how can the two princes hide their true thoughts about him? He could always see emotions such as disdain, disgust, and disgust in the depths of the eyes of the two princes, who thought they had concealed well.

These physiological people are naturally very contemptuous of eunuchs, not to mention that no matter how powerful Liu Jin is, he is actually still a slave of the Son of Heaven.

The three princes are indeed different, Liu Jin, a person who has seen too much filth in the world, has a deep wariness and suspicion of anyone, he has paid attention to and observed, this prince is not only to him, but even to the little eunuchs and palace maids around him who really have a feeling of respect, and it seems that he does not feel that he is naturally superior to them.

This is a truly benevolent gentleman, Liu Jin thinks.

Therefore, Liu Jin has always had a good impression of him.

It's just a pity that this kind of character is not a good thing to be born in the emperor's family, and even being an ordinary person can't be obtained, Liu Jin feels very sorry.

On the way, the third prince cautiously asked Liu Jindao: "I don't know if my father-in-law knows what happened to my father's summoning me?" ”

Liu Jin shook his head and said, "Your Majesty not only summoned His Highness alone, but also your two brothers. ”

Saying that, he smiled and said: "Why, the old slave doesn't know, Your Majesty suddenly summoned several His Highnesses this time." ”

If he really knew anything, he didn't hesitate to remind His Royal Highness the prince. He thought that the person who was about to die, except for His Majesty's illness, there was almost nothing he didn't dare to say, but this summons came inexplicably, and he was a little confused.

Suddenly, as if a bolt of lightning struck, a thought arose in his mind that scared him a little.

It's just that that idea is too terrifying, and he is just guessing, and if he wants to determine whether this judgment is correct, he also needs to observe the true purpose of His Majesty to find the princes this time.

He was uneasy, and his face was uncertain along the way, and he didn't take the initiative to talk to the third prince again.

The third prince also seemed to see what was on his mind, and although he was a little curious about his unforeseen heart, he didn't ask any questions.

It wasn't long before they came outside the study.

Liu Jin asked the third prince to wait outside, and he went in to inform him first.

Entering the imperial study, Liu Jin saw that Emperor Li Shimin was reviewing the recital, while the eldest prince and the second prince stood respectfully aside.
