Chapter Eighty-Seven: Brother! (b)

The eldest grandson, Xiangyu......

What a terrible woman that even the emperor of the dynasty dared to calculate? What audacity!

No wonder Yin Gong once revealed to others that if no one could subdue his granddaughter, who was higher than the sky, then when he died, he could only bring his granddaughter into the ground together, lest this daughter cause disaster to the world and the eldest grandson's family.

With the idea that the tiger poison does not eat children, Li Shou, the king of Anping, had many doubts about this almost rumored news, in his opinion, the eldest grandson family can produce such a genius who has not been seen in a hundred years, he should feel lucky, why did the Yin Guild say those words?

It wasn't until now, when Wang Dan, a henchman beside him, broke the deep meaning of the design of Changsun Xiangyu in a few ways, that Li Shou suddenly understood the true meaning of Yingong's words at that time.

Also, this woman even dares to design and murder the king of a country, what else in this world does she dare not do?

Thinking of this, Li Shou couldn't help but feel a burst of happiness, he was glad that his good brother Xie An had accepted this woman, and he was glad that this woman was now a member of his Li Shou camp, otherwise, the consequences would be really unimaginable.

But having said that, Li Shou really admired Xie An's courage to dare to contact this woman and finally put her in the room, after all, like a woman like the eldest grandson Xiangyu, he Li Shou was definitely forced to retreat three points.

This is also in line with the second half of the poem by the eldest grandson Xiangyu, which is not only used to mock himself, but also to express his heart to Xie An. ]

This woman is really powerful......

A few days ago, the third Li Shen was assassinated by assassins in the mansion, this matter is obviously very clear, but she can smell something wrong from it, and deduce that the murderer who assassinated hundreds of ministers in the court and the central government in those days is not the crown prince Li Wei. It was the fifth prince Li Cheng, and then it was deduced that the fifth prince Li Cheng may have the intention of ascending to the throne by framing the crown prince Li Wei, and he planned to design the two brothers of the crown prince Li Wei.

In order to eradicate the crown prince Li Wei in one go, she deliberately asked Xie An to be subject to the crown prince Li Wei, so that the eastern army would throw a mouse, and on the contrary, it would encourage the arrogance of the crown prince Li Wei, so that he would have no scruples to make the northern army rebel against the palace.

That's not all, she even wants to eradicate the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty......

I thought about it. Li Shou let out a long breath and looked at the eldest grandson Xiangyu in amazement.

As if noticing Li Shou's strange gaze, the eldest grandson Xiangyu chuckled, put on a harmless appearance, and said with a smile. "Isn't that bad? As far as the slave family knows, His Royal Highness Shou hates His Majesty deeply, and hates him for not caring about the love of father and son for more than ten years...... Isn't that so? ”

Li Shou's face was stunned when he heard this, and there was a faint look of remembrance in his eyes.

As the eldest grandson Xiangyu said, since he can remember, Li Shou has deeply hated his mother who brought him into this world, a palace maid in the palace who doesn't know who his surname is. And even if he has countless harem beauties, he must be fortunate to be the palace maid of the Great Zhou Emperor Li Ji.

According to the now deceased Fu Bo, on the day Li Shou was born, he was taken out of the palace by Fu Bo, who was still serving in the Zhan Mansion. He was named [King Anle] and settled down in the Anle Palace, Chaoyang Street, Jijing, which is said to be the meaning of his father, Li Ji, the son of heaven.

After that, for a long period of eighteen years. Except for major festivals every year, Li Shou has hardly set foot in the palace. At first, it was because the guards guarding the palace gate would not let him go, but later, he hated his biological father so much that he was unwilling to go to the luxurious place where he was ashamed and angry.

And the culprit who caused all this is the second person Li Shou hates in his heart, the prince Li Wei!

Speaking of which, even Xie An knew about this matter, long before Fu Bo was killed, Li Shou was extremely disgusted with the crown prince Li Wei in his heart, and as for the later Fu Bo was killed by the assassins of the Jinling Dangerous Building sent by the prince Li Wei to assassinate Xie An, it was just a fuse, simply put, the murder of his dear Fu Bo made Li Shou unable to bear it anymore, so he told Xie An that he wanted to be the emperor, and he wanted to let the prince Li Wei die without a place to be buried!

Although many years have passed, there is one thing that Li Shou still remembers to this day, that is, when he was six years old, the former crown prince Li Yong, who was eleven years older than him, led the army to crusade against the Wairong who had been in trouble on the border several times, and returned to Beijing in triumph.

At that time, Li Shou had a very good impression of this brother who had taken care of him many times, and went to the palace with joy, wanting to greet Li Ji, the son of heaven, and the ministers of the court.

However, Li Wei, who was fashionable and only the second prince, made Li Shou completely chill his heart with a few words of cynicism.

[Brother?] - Hahaha, Cheng, did you hear that? This bastard born to a lowly palace maid actually called me brother? Hahaha! ]

From that day on, Li Shou suddenly felt that everything in heaven and earth seemed to have changed, and he finally understood that the people of Jijing pointed at him, not out of kindness, but simply laughing and ridiculing.

What made Li Shou even more angry was that his biological father Li Ji was next to him at the time, and he clearly heard the unbridled laughter of the two Li Wei brothers, but he didn't say anything about it.

Such a guy is by no means my father!

Li Shou, who was red-faced in a shameful smile, told himself like this in his heart.

Although the world is big, there is no place for it, and Li Shou can be said to have thoroughly understood the meaning of this sentence at that time.

Perhaps since then, Li Shou has hated his biological father Li Ji in his heart, hated Li Wei, who was not yet the prince at the time, and the officials of the DPRK and China who pointed at him behind his back, and even the people of Jijing.

And the one who alleviated Li Shou's resentment was the former prince Li Yong.

It's a pity that this brother, who took good care of him and had both civil and military skills, died of illness on the way when he returned triumphantly from the Third Northern Expedition.

Li Shou can't remember the specific things, he only remembers two things, the first thing, by the son of heaven Li Ji came forward, the court posthumously called the former prince Li Yong as the king, called [King Zhou Huai], and was buried in the imperial mausoleum; The second thing was that Li Wei, the second prince at that time, was promoted to the position of crown prince with the support of many Li clan relatives of the Great Zhou.

If Li Wei's cynicism at the beginning made Li Shou clearly realize the hot and cold state of the world, and hated his own origin and others for the first time, then the death of the former prince Li Yong fueled this hatred until he met Xie An.

Actually, there is something. Li Shou didn't even tell Xie An, because in the first few years after the death of the former crown prince Li Yong, due to the increasing arrogance and domineering of the current crown prince Li Wei, Li Shou suffered a lot, not only hated those who ridiculed him in every way, but even hated the entire Great Zhou.

I remember that he once said to Xie An, [It's good that such an ugly country is destroyed!] Although at that time, he was recalled by Xie An of the humiliation he had received. The mood was excited, but it was more than a momentary gaffe.

To put it mildly, if Li Shou has the ability to subvert this country, don't doubt it. He'll do it.

Fortunately, he got acquainted with Xie An, frolicked with Xie An all day long, sometimes went out of the city to hunt, and sometimes was deceived by Xie An to go to the Qinglou in the city, and the hatred for Da Zhou in his heart gradually faded.

Until now, Li Shou has a grudge in his heart. There are only two people, his biological father Li Ji and the crown prince Li Wei.

It is incredible, although the crown prince Li Wei had ridiculed and insulted him before, and even killed Fu Bo, who had been raised by Li Shou since childhood. But Li Shou's hatred for him was only in second place......

It's the same son, why is the gap so big, like a world of difference?

Maybe. This is the real reason why Li Shou hates his father when he is the son of heaven Li Ji.

He ...... Will you die? Looking in the direction of the palace, Li Shou asked wistfully.

The eldest grandson Xiangyu was stunned when he heard this. glanced at Li Shou with a little surprise, shook the folding fan in his hand, and said with a chuckle, "After all, blood is thicker than water?" -- Kindness is not a commendable thing in the eyes of the slaves, let alone at such a time......"

As if he heard the deep meaning of the eldest grandson Xiangyu's words, Li Shou's eyes showed a little anger, and he said inwardly, "It's not the kindness of a woman, it's just ...... Xiao Wang just regrets that he didn't kill him with his own hands! ”

Looking at Li Shou's deliberately pretended ruthlessness, the eldest grandson Xiangyu only felt funny in his heart, shook his head, and giggled, "The slave family can only regret His Highness's intentions!" - My husband Xie An is bent on putting you on the throne, and now the slave family is designing it for him, and nothing can make His Royal Highness bear the unforgivable charge of killing the monarch and killing the father! ”

Li Shou is not stupid, where can he not hear the somewhat teasing tone in Changsun Xiangyu's words, his face was slightly red when he heard this, he thought about it, and said truthfully, "Tell Miss Changsun to see and laugh...... Maybe blood is thicker than water, although Xiao Wang hates his father deeply, but now I hear about him...... Alas! -- I can't bear it, and besides, ......"

"Again?"

Glancing back at the direction of the palace, Li Shou muttered, "Besides, Xiao Wang still has some words that have been hidden in his heart for many years and wants to ask him......"

"Heavier than the throne or?" Glancing at Li Shou, the eldest grandson Xiangyu said lightly, "According to the design of the slave family, if everything goes well, the fifth prince Li Cheng plots to rebel, he will naturally die, and the crown prince Li Wei will not end well if he helps his younger brother to abuse, if you can use the hand of the crown prince Li Wei to get rid of the ...... in the dragon court With the support of the eldest grandson's family, the Liangqiu family, and my husband Xie An, the throne is none other than His Royal Highness Shou! - Or even so, His Highness wants the one in the Dragon Court to be safe and sound? ”

After staring at the palace for a long time, Li Shou muttered, "Ah, if you can, Xiao Wang still has some words that have been hidden in his heart for many years and wants to ask him......" Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at Changsun Xiangyu and asked hesitantly, "Please tell the truth about Miss Changsun, he ...... Will you be able to get out of danger this time? ”

"......" The eldest grandson Xiangyu glanced at Li Shou when he heard this, shook the folding fan in his hand, and was silent, until Li Shou asked again, she chuckled and said indifferently, "Okay, okay, don't worry, Your Majesty has been sitting on the throne for more than 30 years, how can it be so easy to encounter accidents?" ――The slave family is just trying to use the crown prince Li Wei to remove the last obstacle for His Royal Highness Shou......"

"Miss Eldest Sun is not sure about this?" Li Shou looked at the eldest grandson Xiangyu suspiciously.

Hearing this, the eldest grandson Xiangyu showed a little displeasure in his eyes, and reprimanded lightly, "The little woman is not a ghost or god, how can everything be as expected?" ―

―It's nothing more than doing everything you can, depending on the will of God! ”

Hearing this, Wang Dan, the staff member next to Li Shou, showed a strange look, the words of the eldest grandson Xiangyu were no problem, but it was inevitable that this sentence would be a little unreasonable to put this sentence on the calculation of the emperor.

And Li Shou obviously didn't think so much, seeing the eldest grandson Xiangyu say this, his spirits perked up, and he said as if relieved, "What does Miss eldest grandson mean that this time that person may not be harmed by the crown prince Li Wei?" ”

"Hmm," snorted perfunctorily, and the eldest grandson, Xiangyu, glanced in the direction of the palace. said lightly, "The little woman wants to clear the last obstacle for His Royal Highness Shou, but most of them will not sit idly by and watch this happen......"

Glancing at Wang Dan, Li Shou asked suspiciously, "Who is it?" ”

I saw the eldest grandson Xiangyu sneer, and said lightly, "Third prince Li Shen! ”

"The third?" Li Shou was stunned when he heard this, and said in astonishment. "The third child is in the palace at the moment?"

"The third prince Li Shen is cautious, since he has been assassinated by assassins sent by the fifth prince Li Cheng, he must be more vigilant...... In this Jijing, where else is it easier to hide than the Imperial Palace? ”

"Really?" Hearing this, Wang Dan said in shock. "The third prince Li Shen is actually in the palace, that ......"

As if he had guessed what Wang Dan was thinking, the eldest grandson Xiangyu waved the fan in his hand and said lightly, "What are you panicking about?" ――With the material of the third prince Li Shen, he wants to be a fisherman in front of the slave family, and Mr. Wang can't help but look up to him too much! ”

Wang Dan was stunned when he heard this. Then he smiled with relief, "What Miss Eldest Sun said is extremely true, Miss Miss's talent is unmatched, and she has no last resort. How could this be omitted? -- It's an extra move, but it's just ...... If the third prince Li Shenruo is in the palace, will the current situation change slightly? ”

"Of course!" One sentence made Li Shou and Wang Dan's faces change slightly. The eldest grandson, Xiangyu, chuckled lightly and said slowly. Li Shen's thinking about it, it is not difficult to guess that he should know that if he seeks His Majesty's protection at such a time, it is tantamount to withdrawing from the game between princes and princes! If he is really in the palace now, it means that this person has no intention of competing for the throne now! ”

"No intention of fighting for the throne?" Li Shou looked at the eldest grandson Xiangyu in surprise, but Wang Dan beside him heard something wrong from the words of the eldest grandson Xiangyu, and asked tentatively, "Right now?" ”

Glancing at Wang Dan appreciatively, the eldest grandson Xiangyu nodded and said, "Not bad, right now!" - Former crybaby...... cough, the reason why the eighth prince Li Xian and the fourth prince Li Mao stayed in Jiangnan and Northern Xinjiang so reassuringly was precisely because the third prince Li Shen was present in Jijing, and he would not ask the prince Li Wei to cover the sky with one hand, but on the other hand, how could the third prince Li Shen be willing to be a shield for Li Mao and Li Xian? ――Does His Highness Shou still remember when I waited for the Western Expedition to quell the rebellion? At that time, Li Shen was designed by the crown prince Li Wei, and how many henchmen were planted in the military were eradicated?! - Li Shen is a smart man, he knows the current situation in Jijing, and now Jijing has the strength to win the throne, but the two brothers of the crown prince Li Wei and His Royal Highness Shou, and Li Shen, whose forces around him have been disintegrated by the crown prince Li Wei, think that he will definitely not be able to benefit from it, so he simply gave up the competition for the throne for the time being, and sold his personal favor to His Royal Highness Shou......"

"Selling personal favors to Xiao Wang?" Li Shou looked at the eldest grandson Xiangyu in confusion.

Seeing this, the eldest grandson Xiangyu shook his head and said angrily, "After all, His Highness is just a mortal, can't he even think of such obvious things?" - His Royal Highness Shou is not as good as the crown prince Li Wei, even if he has the support of my husband Xie An, the eldest grandson's family, the Liangqiu family and other parties, his foundation is unstable, and he is not as long as the prince Li Wei! - If His Royal Highness Shou gains power, Li Shen still has the day to make a comeback, on the contrary, if the crown prince Li Wei gains power, he will definitely die! For this reason, he deliberately deceived his death and hid in the palace, in order to find a way to kill the two brothers of the crown prince Li Wei at this moment, and at that time, he was a hero in the management of the chaos, if he said that he was willing to give up the throne and took the initiative to ask the court to be crowned king, then would His Highness have an excuse to kill him to get rid of the trouble? ”

"This ......" Li Shou was shocked when he heard this, nodded in agreement, and then frowned and said, "Why do you want to kill him?" ”

"If you want to kill, you must kill!" Speaking of this, the eldest grandson Xiangyu suddenly thought of his eighth prince, Li Xian, hesitated, and said, "Even if you don't kill him, you must detain him in Jijing for the rest of his life, otherwise, there will be endless troubles!" ――Shen Sheng dies when he is inside, and he is born when he is heavy on the outside, this story, His Royal Highness Shou won't have heard this story, right? ”

While Li Shou frowned and pondered, Wang Dan secretly looked at the eldest grandson Xiangyu with strange eyes, and secretly sighed in his heart.

So that's the case, and the reason why he has stood by so far is that he calculated that the third prince Li Shen would never sit idly by and watch the crown prince Li Wei succeed, and he would inevitably make an obstacle from it......

or use the hands of the crown prince Li Wei to eradicate the current majesty, and let the two brothers Li Wei bear the charge of killing the king, which can be used as an excuse in the future to let His Royal Highness ascend the throne; Or borrow the hands of the third prince Li Shen to eradicate the prince Li Wei and Li Wei's brothers, and wait for His Royal Highness to sit on the ninety-five supreme, and then cross the river and demolish the bridge to eradicate the third prince Li Shen......

It's a two-pronged approach, and it's a last resort, this woman's scheming is heavy, and the city is deep. It's really rare in the world!

I have to say that Wang Dan is also a national scholar's talent, with the eldest grandson Xiangyu's words, he figured out this woman's plan, unfortunately, more intelligent than Wang Dan's national scholar's talent, and I can't guess the eldest grandson Xiangyu's huge plan in a small calculation, a pure piece is just for her, not enough for outsiders to say about the calculation.

Counting the time, Xiao Wu should have done that, right?

Not. Her Liangqiu family has been loyal to the royal family for generations, and she will never tolerate the crown prince Li Wei leading the army to attack the Yangxin Palace, even if Xie An's bad guy is now being held hostage by the crown prince Li Wei......

Xiao Wu, don't blame the slave family, anyway, the slave family is one year older than you. It didn't hurt before, just ask your sister to please you a few times, but now you and I are both daughters-in-law of the Xie family, and I won't give you the position of this eldest wife, sister......

Anyway, you and Xie An's guy are only in danger this time, and there will never be a danger to their lives, so let my sister design it. Tell Xie An, that bad guy, to have a little mustard in his heart......

Hee-hee!

Under the puzzled gazes of Li Shou and Wang Dan, the eldest grandson Xiangyu covered half of his face with a fan, looked in the direction of the palace, and snickered happily.

And at the same time. In the palace Yangxin Palace, the crown prince Li Wei asked Wen Qin to kidnap Xie An, and his younger brother Li Cheng, the fifth prince, led countless northern soldiers into the Yangxin Palace, and killed the eunuchs who came to escort them when they learned of this. Then he moved to the inner hall where his father, Li Ji, the son of the Great Zhou Dynasty, lived.

Looking at his father Li Ji who was lying on the dragon couch without panic, the crown prince Li Wei glanced at his younger brother Li Cheng beside him. Seeing that he was retreating, he shook his head secretly, and said in a deep voice, "Father, my son has come to ask my father!" ”

Glancing at the many northern soldiers behind the crown prince Li Wei, the son of heaven Li Ji laughed and said lightly, "If you are asking for peace, why do you want to bring many northern troops?" ”

"Well," with a chuckle, Prince Li Wei licked his lips, his face changed, and he said in a deep voice, "Erchen just thinks that my father has been the emperor for thirty years, and it's long enough, it's time to hand over the throne!" ”

Li Ji, the Son of Heaven, sneered when he heard this, and said lightly, "Are you so impatient to sit in my position?" Wei'er? ”

The crown prince Li Wei was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile, "No, the son is ready to give up the throne to Cheng!" ”

"Give it to the fifth?" Hearing this, Li Ji, the Son of Heaven, glanced at the Fifth Prince Li Cheng, and when he saw that his face was uneasy, he secretly shook his head, frowned, and said, "I don't think he has the courage to kill the king and the father!" ”

Turning his head and glancing at his younger brother Li Cheng, the crown prince Li Wei patted him on the shoulder, signaling him to calm down, and then looked back at Li Ji, the son of heaven, and said, "Even if Cheng doesn't have the guts, Erchen does!" -- Bothering his father and the emperor to hand over his personal imperial seal and make a will, it is always a father and son, and the sons do not want their father to suffer a lot of torture before his death! ”

Li Ji, the Son of Heaven, opened his eyes when he heard this, and reprimanded angrily, "Are you threatening me? - What a bold man! - When I conquered the world, you didn't know where you dared to speak to me like this?! ”

I have to say that Li Ji is always the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty for 30 years, don't look at the old man who seems to be ignorant on weekdays, but now he is angry, and his courage is really amazing, and the northern soldiers behind the two brothers of the prince Li Wei retreated again and again, and even the eyes of the fifth prince Li Cheng showed a little horror.

In the entire inner hall, only the crown prince Li Wei's face remained unchanged, his eyes looked at his father Li Ji levelly, spread his arms, and said with a chuckle, "Since ancient times, the royal family has had the most cannibalism...... I heard that my father and emperor originally forced their father and killed their brother, so that they were able to sit on the throne, in this case, what is the fault of the sons and ministers to follow suit? ”

When the Son of Heaven Li Ji heard this, he looked at the crown prince Li Wei deeply, and when he saw that his face did not change from beginning to end, he suddenly laughed, stroked his palms and praised, "Okay, so courageous, worthy of being my Li Ji's son!" - Among all the princes, you are the only one who is the most like me! ”

The crown prince Li Wei was stunned when he heard this, frowned and said, "At this time, I am soft, but I am not as ...... as my father."

"Soft? I? The laughter of the Son of Heaven Li Ji stopped abruptly, looked at the crown prince Li Wei, and said lightly, "I just give you the evaluation you deserve......" Speaking of this, he shook his head and sighed and said, "If you are given a few more years, even if you are the fourth, I am afraid that it will not be your opponent, but unfortunately, it is a pity that ......"

"Pity? What a pity? Prince Li Wei asked in surprise.

At this moment, a sneer came from under the dragon couch of the Son of Heaven Li Ji, and then, the third prince Li Shen climbed down from under the dragon couch, straightened his clothes, and sneered at the two brothers of the crown prince Li Wei who were stunned, "It's a pity that you are going to die here today!" ――What are you waiting for? ”

As soon as the words fell, the dry wardrobe on the side of the inner hall suddenly opened, and dozens of crossbowmen jumped out, aimed the crossbow arrows in their hands at the two princes Li Wei and the brothers, and pulled the trigger.

Even the crown prince Li Wei didn't expect that the third prince Li Shen would set up an ambush in the wardrobe in the palace, seeing that those crossbowmen had pulled the trigger, he didn't think about it, and turned around to block in front of the fifth prince Li Cheng.

"Sudden ......"

The sound of sharp arrows shooting into the human body saw that the crown prince Li Wei was shocked, and more than ten arrows were in his back, piercing his body, and his four-clawed black dragon imperial robe was suddenly stained red with blood.
