The guards who hurried in to the door quickly approached the huge case without announcing it, knelt down on one knee without saying a word, and a drop of sweat on his face like a knife cut into stone slammed heavily on the blue brick floor from his jaw, and he was panting for a long time with heavy breathing before calming down.

The two people who were playing chess raised their heads at the same time as if they had just seen him at this time, and one of them took the fragrant tea that had cooled down and sniffed it deeply, and said with a smile: "The longer this time passes, the more fragrant the tea will be." ”

The other person didn't have such a big surname, staring closely at the person who seemed to have only one back, and couldn't wait to ask, "He went in?" ”

"Yes, the subordinates have been there for a whole day, the officials of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of War arrived first, and then there were a lot of elders, but it seems that only Lord Long and Lord Li's sons are inside, and everyone else has come down to inquire about the news, and the sons of other families don't know who else is..."

"Rice bucket!" The wide sleeves of the robe almost swept away the things on the table, countless black and white children splashed out like raindrops, and the heavy chessboard slammed down on the person's body, "I can't even find out this kind of trivial matter, what's the use of me keeping you!" ”

"The Seventh Master used his personal guards to replace all the Praetorian Guards in the palace, and I can't get in." Unlike the voice of defense, he continued to speak without ups and downs, as if he was saying something that had nothing to do with him.

"Go on!"

"The Seventh Master is the last to arrive, and there is still his henchman Xiao Rang behind him."

"Humph!" It's another disdainful voice, but it always feels a little helpless when it sounds.

"It is said," the guard paused, licked his chapped lips with his tongue lacking saliva, and continued, "The Nine Princes have also gone. ”

"That uncle who only collects money? What is he going to do? The bright yellow belt suddenly stopped in the room, "Could it be?" ”

"Didn't his son-in-law just stay with that noble concubine?"

"This..." The guard had just raised his head a little and lowered it again, "I don't know. ”

"I don't know, I don't know! You don't know what else to do but say! The man who paced briskly to a table threw a teacup to the ground.

"Okay, you go down, I don't blame you for today's incident, you did a good job, go to the account office and spend fifty taels of silver to buy wine to moisten your throat, I don't need to say anything else, you understand, right?" The man who hadn't moved since the guards entered the door smiled, and put down the cooled tea as it was.

"His Royal Highness King Xie Jin's reward, his subordinates will never dare to reveal a word about today's affairs."

The unassuming man in a long coat smiled and waved his hand, and it was obvious that he was pleased with the guard, "You go down." ”

"Fourth brother, do you think he will ······?" The man with the bright yellow belt stepped heavily on the chess pieces all over the ground and walked back, and there was no trace of anxiety on his face.

"Let me ask you, who has the most people in the military department?" King Jin had a mysterious smile on his face.

"Of course, the third brother has the most people, from the end of the Shangshu to a small scribe, he has covered the sky with one hand for so many years, that is, let's find someone to go in tomorrow and get less than half of the useful things - why are you asking this?"

"What about the officials?" King Jin is still in that unhurried tone.

"It's a lot of us," replied the young man, who seemed to remember something, but still couldn't figure out where to go.

"That's right," King Jin lightly placed a circle of white seeds on the vacated table, "We have done so many small actions underneath, and the old man will not know at all?" It's not that he doesn't care, but he's afraid that the more he manages, the more chaotic it becomes! After the military department is a few lords, some of them have fought with Emperor Taizu, and the daughters of several old guys have also been princesses, and the following relationships are intertwined, who can sort them out? The old man is also embarrassed. ”

"But," as soon as the words changed, King Jin took out another white son and knocked the one that was originally on the periphery into it, "Concubine Zhen Niangniang was originally the daughter of Lu Guogong, how powerful is Lu Guogong in the military department, hehe, I don't need to say it clearly, most of the people are his protégés, put the third brother's nephew in, even if you don't look at the third brother's face, you have to save some face for Lu Guogong." With the support of Grandpa Guo, even if we can put people in, it is just a little daughter-in-law for others. ”

"But the third brother turned the military department into his own world, at least it is not a bad thing for us at all." King Jin picked out all the white characters from a black and white mess, "The Ministry of Officials was originally managed by the third brother, but think about it, since the old man put him in charge of the Ministry of War, he also gave him face in the appointment and dismissal of the Ministry of Officials?" Last time, the Jeju prefect Hong Wenyuan, the third brother's hardcore confidant, it stands to reason that a prefect's gift of receiving 500 taels for three years is nothing, but after being participated in by someone else, the old man was locked in the prison the next day, what is this? This is a warning to the third brother! Who do you think we have been able to gain a firm foothold in the third brother's ministry for so long? If it weren't for the old man sitting behind us, we wouldn't be able to sit down steadily in those years! ”

The man with the bright yellow belt was shocked into a cold sweat, with his reckless surname, he would never have thought of such a relationship.

Seeing that his own brother was finally a little scared, King Jin sighed and continued: "Do you think the old man values my son? He put me in this position in order to check and balance the third brother, the appointment and dismissal of the officials of the Ministry of War, without the nod of the Ministry of Officials, he didn't want to move around alone, he is asking us to contain each other, so that the situation will not get out of control! The reason why we were able to so smoothly say that the henchmen of the third brother of the ministry were dismissed, and they were exempted, which time was not nodded by the father himself? ”

"But the old guy surnamed Guo was not the emperor that time..." Young people still don't understand.

"Confused!" King Jin rarely picked up his brother's majesty and scolded him, looking at this younger brother who was still not enlightened, he really wanted to put his head on him, "Guo Shangshu is the third brother's person, but he is also the emperor's person!" ”

"You mean..." The young brother suddenly realized, no wonder he was reprimanded, thinking that the old man dared to put half of the power in the world in their hands, if he didn't put a voice and eyes of his own on their side, he couldn't say anything.

"I said why, when I asked my father to say goodbye last time, I just mentioned Guo Li slightly, and he scolded me..."

"Guo Shangshu, we must not move, otherwise my father will not scold you but let you go to the side to eat military rations, he is also afraid that the situation will get out of control," after a pause, King Jin frowned slightly, "Although he is not from our side, as long as we don't go too far, he will only turn a blind eye, no matter what, he also has to think about his old life, although it is not yet known who killed the deer, but it is expected that the old fox will not dare to offend us openly, hum!" ”

"Then the third brother, they..." The younger brother looked indignant,

"Third brother? I'm afraid he's even more sad than us, don't forget, the household in charge of the world's money and grain is still firmly in the hands of the old man, even if he wants to mobilize 3,000 people, he has to pass the old man's pass first, although he has the ability to fight, but the old man doesn't allocate funds, and the second doesn't produce food, what do you say he will take to fight? At the mention of the third brother, the look in King Jin's eyes was even more fierce.

"That's right," the man with the bright yellow belt smiled embarrassedly, "but the matter of Wen Ziru, the former servant of the ministry..."

"You know that little concubine of your new na! What else would you think about besides a woman? Now the wind is so tight, even I have been grounded in the house, why don't you know how to restrain until now! Do you know how big it really is this time? 100,000 elites, they are all drawn out of the forbidden army guarding the capital by the old man, and now they are defeated in a word, not to mention where the old man's face is placed, even he can't afford this loss! ”

"Why?" The person next to him who could listen subconsciously asked.

"Why?" The elder brother repeated in a cold tone, "Why do you say?" I can't say that I won't go back to see your little ladies today, and I will stay here to study with me until dawn tomorrow! ”

"It's because... Because ······" Even if he calms down and thinks about it, he may not be able to figure it out, and now that he is absent-minded, it is even more difficult for him to guess what kind of medicine is sold in his brother's gourd.

"I don't even know why?!" Seeing that this younger brother was so stupid, King Jin became angry, even if he had always boasted of being calm, he couldn't help but start scolding now: "You can't use your pig brain more!" ”

"Brother, you know, I'm just a rough person, it's okay to dance with guns and sticks, if you want to talk about using your brain... Hehe, to be honest, it's not my turn yet. "The bright yellow belt is not embarrassing at all.

"It's for the seventh brother," after taking a few deep breaths and trying to calm down his emotions, King Jin pressed the jade wrench in his hand between the black and white chess pieces, "The seventh brother has been with the army since he was a child, and his prestige in the army is unmatched, and even there are many people in the forbidden army who buy his account, and the third brother and I are different, the status in the army is completely dependent on his own hard work, and the upper and lower are ironclad, even the old man can't help him." Alas, if it weren't for that woman, the old man would not have been able to turn his face with him, and the position of the prince would have already become in his pocket, how could I still have my share with the third brother! ”

"That..." The younger brother smirked, grabbed a piece of snack from the nearby table and threw it into his mouth, "··· I still don't understand, I said brother, you don't play dumb riddles with your brother, these ways you said make me think about it for 10,000 years, I may not be able to come up with it..."

"Since he fell out with the seventh brother, the old man has always been afraid that the seventh brother will force the palace to let him abdicate, although he has a good eye for our princes, but he never thought of giving up his position to be the emperor himself! What do you think my third brother and I are in his eyes? It's just a few chess pieces to deal with the old seven! He had already seen that we had ambitions for the throne, and he also saw that we would faithfully monitor the seventh brother for him for the sake of the throne, and he knew that with the skills of me and the third brother, the sum was less than half of the seventh brother. If we let Lao Qi continue to fight like this, this world will become Lao Qi sooner or later, so he will ignore what I and the third brother did, let us fight, and he will sit on the mountain next to him and watch the tiger fight! King Jin's words were amazing.

"No wonder..." The young man was dumbfounded, "The feeling is that the old man coaxes a few of us to play!" I said why did he recruit you into the palace every day a few days ago to talk, and when the news of the defeat came back, he immediately turned his face and didn't recognize anyone! ”

"Do you know what you're talking about?" King Jin made a tiger face, "This is a big rebellion!" Don't even say it to me in the future! ”

"Got it, brother." The younger brother secretly stifled a smile and lowered his head deeply.

"Alas," King Jin sighed, "the third brother's mother is more precious than the son, and the son is the mother, and even the father and the emperor have to be afraid of him, if our brothers don't work together······ After that, it was sad. King Jin's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally it was almost inaudible. Looking at his younger brother, who didn't care about anything, he suddenly felt a sense of weakness in his heart.

"Seventh Master," there was originally no one at the entrance of the inner hall, and suddenly several people with a sturdy body burst out from under the shade of the tree, "You are here," he was used to staying in the guards, and he couldn't change his mouth even in front of people, and the guard who was the first to put away the knife in his hand and smiled embarrassedly.

"How's that going?" The Seventh Prince walked through the long corridor without stopping, and he didn't want to come here if it weren't for the silk brocade he didn't want to see again.

"Back to the seventh master's words, except for a big man calling Tian Cai, the others have not moved, I have asked a few bows and arrows to monitor them, as long as they find the slightest sign of suicide in fear of sin, shoot their shoulder blades through, and then pick off their tendons and tendons, tie them into a zongzi, and feed them chili water like turtles, hehe, don't worry about them not opening their mouths..."

"Phew!" The folding fan hit him on the head hard, and the big man stopped in shock, and the expression on his face suddenly became pitiful: "Seventh Master..."

"They're not prisoners, so what are you doing with torture? Besides, even if you pry their mouths open, what do you ask them to say? Which of them is a fuel-efficient lamp, maybe if you touch them a little, someone will accuse you of torture tomorrow morning! The prince's footsteps did not stop, and the guards with broad shoulders and round waists hurriedly followed.

"Then I'll watch them myself, if they hit the wall, I'll block them with my belly, and if they hang myself, I'll carry them on my shoulder!" Speaking of which, the guards have no words, his grandmother's, is this still a criminal minister, they have all caught up with the dignity of the mother.

"Don't worry," the embarrassed Seven Princes smiled faintly, "They won't kill themselves—they don't have the guts yet, but you have to take care of them for me, and if you let someone go, I'll be the only one to ask!" The tone of the Seventh Prince suddenly revealed a murderous intent.

"Don't worry," replied the chief of the guard, "if one of them runs out, I'll screw off my head and bring it to you." ”

"What else?" Seeing that he was about to reach the door, the Seventh Prince finally stopped, "Li Dazhuang, do you have anything else to say?" ”

"Hehe, Your Highness, you are really a god, I just want to... I just want to ······" Obviously, the opportunity was already in front of him, but the guard couldn't say it.

"You..." Rao was also suffocated by the city of the Seventh Prince, and after looking the guard up and down, he sighed, "Do you want to go back to the army and continue to be your captain?"

"Your Highness agreed?" Li Dazhuang's eyes suddenly lit up.

"No," the Seventh Prince flatly refused, glancing at the guard's limping leg by the way, "you just stay here for me honestly—wait until you heal your leg injury!" ”

"Your Highness!" The guard couldn't help but wail, "But I..."

"No, but." For this subordinate who has followed him for many years, he doesn't have to leave half a face.
