Chapter 357: Intercession (2)
Li Ling thought for a while, and then said: "But Uncle Deng, why do you want to intercede for the prince, he has never had anything to live with his nephew, thinking that this old prince is imprisoned in this cave every day, even if he has the heart to do something to me, there is no chance!" ”
Deng Yucheng saw that Li Ling was right, and couldn't help but be relieved and happy, happy that His Royal Highness handed Li Ling over to him, and now he finally saw that he had grown up, and he was so sensible, and he was happy that Li Ling was able to analyze things so thoroughly! He nodded in agreement and said, "Childe, you're right, this prince didn't offend you, I asked you like this, you will naturally feel a little confused." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Actually, he has been imprisoned in this cave for so many years, and almost all of them have been wronged, but it was His Highness's order, and the old man couldn't help but obey, no matter who that person was, as long as it was possible to be unfavorable to His Highness, the old man would fight with whom! ”
Seeing that he said solemnly, Li Ling couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration, so he clasped his fists and said, "Uncle Deng, nephew Uncle Xie Deng has worked hard for our father and son for so many years. ”
Deng Yucheng was taken aback when he saw Li Ling like this, shook his head hurriedly, and said, "Son, this is what Yucheng should do, you must not be like this!" ”
"Speaking of this matter, I still have to mention the conversation between the two of us that you just heard, you should also hear it, the relationship between the two of us is very close, in fact, the two of us met earlier than my acquaintance with His Royal Highness, and the two of us hit it off at first sight, so we became brothers." When Deng Yucheng said this, he looked at Li Ling again, and saw that Li Ling's expression did not mean impatience, so he continued: "Don't look at the old bones now, almost can't move, in fact, when I was young, I was not afraid of heaven and earth, although I felt that he had an indescribable nobility, but I didn't take it too seriously, until later, I learned by chance that he was the prince at that time!" ”
"Then this old prince is really discerning and talented, and your fate is really not shallow." Li Ling said this, but he thought in his heart: "Who knows if he fell in love with your relationship with Your Highness at that time, so he deliberately approached you and let you know the details of Your Highness." It's just that maybe he still underestimated your loyalty, but he didn't expect that you really took His Highness's affairs as the first thing. Thinking of this, Li Ling couldn't help but feel that this Uncle Deng was really respectable!
Deng Yucheng heard Li Ling say this, not only praised the old prince, but also praised himself, he couldn't help but bow slightly, and said: "It's really strange, although the old man doesn't care about national affairs, but he is not interested in the princes' dispute at all, although I know that my sworn brother is the prince and is very likely to inherit the throne, I still don't want to get involved, he has also suggested many times that I go to find an official and a half-job, but I am a person who is used to idleness, where can I stand the constraints of the government?" Alas, probably as fate should have been, once I was in danger due to ignorance, and I met a noble man who rescued me, and this noble man was your father, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at that time. Since His Royal Highness has a life-saving grace for me, the old man naturally wants to help him well, so he followed His Highness. ”
After Li Ling heard his words, he sighed and said, "I never thought that Uncle Deng and my father still have this relationship!" It seems that even if Uncle Deng has no intention of assisting his father, sooner or later he will be involved. Deng Yucheng, who was in such a dilemma, made Li Ling feel more respectable.
Deng Yucheng said with a wry smile: "Yes, you can think of it, on the one hand, he is his sworn brother, and on the other hand, he is his savior, if there is really anything between them, I will feel guilty no matter what I do!" This is also the real situation of the old decay at that time! ”
"Uncle Deng, it's really hard for you." Li Ling said seriously.
Deng Yucheng just shook his head lightly and said: "Actually, there was nothing at first, but later, there were more and more things, although both of them would have a little scruple because of me, but after all, it was a battle for the throne!" How could there be less bloodshed? Therefore, when I heard that someone wanted me to go outside to lead the troops, I went straight without saying a word, without even asking who it was or what the reason was, and it was precisely because I was not by His Highness's side that I couldn't protect him! I've been very sorry for all these years! If I can't be full of brotherhood, I shouldn't worship the eldest prince, and if I can't fully appreciate it, I also conclude that I shouldn't follow the prince, so that he has many concerns when acting. Alas, speaking of which, this is wrong, in the final analysis, I am the most wrong! ”
Li Ling comforted: "Uncle Deng, you don't have to blame yourself so much, I believe they will all understand you." These words sounded pale and weak, but other than that, Li Ling really didn't know what else he should say.
"Childe, you haven't experienced these things, you don't know the discomfort and self-blame in the heart of the old man. At that time, His Royal Highness had already been falsely accused, and I fled in a hurry with you, and later I heard that His Royal Highness had arrested the eldest prince, so I contacted the old man and learned that the eldest prince had been imprisoned in one place! I could have heard what he had to say if I wanted to, but I didn't. Because I feel that His Highness's death has something to do with him more or less, and I can't forgive him in my heart! So, I had him imprisoned in this cave and never see the light of day! And by his side, there will be me. Because I know very well that if it wasn't my choice, how could there be anything later, and the biggest mistake in this is not him, but me! The more Deng Yucheng spoke, the more excited he became, as if he had seen the scene at that time.
"And he, knowing that I am fine, but he has not even seen him once for so many years, probably understands my thoughts, and never mentions anything to go out. I naturally knew that if I wanted to, I would have let him go a long time ago, after all, His Highness was long gone, and no one would care about him at all. However, even though my heart has softened sometimes, I still can't just do that. Because, I know very well that in this world, the only person who could have decided to let him go or stay was His Royal Highness the Prince, and now that His Royal Highness is gone, then the only one who can decide this matter is Gongzi, Yucheng is brave, please forgive him instead of His Highness, and give him freedom!
