There was a slight stagnation in the room.

Everyone either knows it with affection or moves with reason, not about face or about heart, the first thing the three princes said was interests.

Zhou Xuan sneered.

"I don't care that much about military power." He said, "Military power is a tool for me to avenge my father. ”

Speaking of this, he looked at the third prince and asked with a smile.

"Now even if I don't have the power to fight, Your Highness, is the prince's affairs all under control?"

The third prince looked at him and nodded: "It's already under control." ”

Zhou Xuan smiled: "Then what else is there to worry about, why do I need to be a son-in-law of Chenglong?" ”

In other words, there is no need to cling to the royal family anymore?

The third prince didn't get angry when he heard him say so bluntly, and smiled: "You think clearly, just know what you're doing." ”

Zhou Xuan said lazily: "Your Highness just do your own thing, now Your Highness is also considered to be famous, there is no need to associate with certain people, so as not to burden His Highness's major affairs." ”

The third prince obviously knew what Zhou Xuan said, but he didn't smile like before, and immediately nodded and said yes, silently for a moment, as if he was thinking and deciding-

"Don't bother with my business, I have my own measure." He finally smiled and said, "You should take care of your injuries, since you don't want to be a fast son-in-law to get glory and wealth, you have to rely on this body to fight for the future." ”

Zhou Xuan turned his head inward: "Yes, then please don't bother me, Your Highnesses, let me recuperate well." ”

The third prince responded well, got up and said goodbye and walked out, the second prince was waiting outside, very relieved that he didn't hear the beating and scolding - a person as gentle as jade as the third prince would not beat and scold people.

The second prince was just about to praise him, but the third prince spoke first: "Second brother, don't let others see Ah Xuan, I've already scolded him, it's only three, and if someone else comes to do this, it will backfire." ”

The second prince's expression was a little stiff, and he wanted him to stop the other brothers from coming? Wouldn't that be scolded to death by other brothers? He had always regarded himself as the second prince among his brothers, a little harsher than the prince's gentleness, and a little milder than the prince's—

The third prince looked at his face and smiled: "You and I know what kind of temper Ah Xuan has, he and his father dare to make trouble like this, and we are even more afraid of our brothers, let him really make trouble when the time comes, what is the good thing, second brother, our brothers, except for the crown prince, what is the status of other people in my father's heart, you and I know it." ”

He coughed lightly twice and patted the second prince on the shoulder.

"If my father can beat him with fifty rods, he can beat us with a hundred rods, second brother, think about it."

After he finished speaking, he covered his mouth with his sleeve and coughed lightly and walked away, leaving the second prince standing outside the door with a changing expression of thought.

But he didn't give him much time to think, and soon a eunuch ran to say that the fourth prince and the fifth prince were coming, and the second prince gritted his teeth: "Stop them and don't let them in." ”

Since it was the crown prince who asked him to take charge of the affairs here, everyone obeyed his orders, so they immediately stopped the fourth and fifth princes at the door.

The fifth prince was unbelievable, the second prince dared to stop him?

"Maybe I'm worried that we're going to make trouble." The fourth prince thought of it wisely and explained to the gatekeeper, "Go and tell the second brother that we are here to visit and bring the best medicine for the injury." ”

The second prince is a soft-eared man, so he will coax in first.

But I didn't expect the second prince to listen to nothing and see nothing, so he only let them go back.

"Whether it's a visitor or a reprimand, don't come in, my father has already punished Zhou Xuan, he needs to recuperate now, I, as your second brother, will take care of him on your behalf and teach him a lesson."

The fifth prince jumped to his feet angrily, surprised again, crazy, this second prince has no sense of existence, and no one takes him seriously, he is also bent on pleasing all his brothers, and he is a good brother praised by everyone, just like his mother and concubine, what is wrong now? Crazy? Or do you think this is an opportunity to fight for your head in front of the emperor?

The fifth prince's face was cloudy, and with the example of the third prince, the second prince was not willing to be lonely.

"There's a big brother, it's your turn to discipline us." He gritted his teeth and said, "Break through."

The fourth prince dragged him: "No, fifth brother, it was the eldest brother who asked him to take care of Zhou Xuan, wouldn't it make the eldest brother embarrassed if we made such a fuss?" ”

Also, their brothers are really making trouble, and it is the prince who is embarrassed, okay, Chu Lerong, I underestimate you, the fifth prince shook his sleeves fiercely: "Let's go!" ”

Wait and see!

.....

.....

What happened in Zhou Xuanhou's mansion, the emperor quickly got the news, knowing that Princess Jin Yao and the third prince had gone, and knowing that the second prince had stopped the fourth prince and the fifth prince at the door, he smiled when he heard this.

"Le Rong, a person with no temper, dares to do this." He said, looking at the eunuch Jinzhong standing in front of him, "You go and give him dinner for me." ”

This is in favor of the second prince's approach, and the eunuch Jinzhong hurriedly responded, and the emperor looked to the other side, where stood a tall and thin young man, although in front of the emperor, he also had two long swords tied to his back, dressed in black, silent, and seemed to merge with the curtain.

"Merlin." The emperor asked, "What did Xiu Xuan say?" ”

Mo Lin said: "The third prince persuaded Zhou Xuan not to be too careful, His Majesty did not want to deprive him of his military power. ”

As soon as these words came out, the eunuch Jinzhong immediately lowered his head and held his breath and became silent.

The emperor held the teacup with a calm expression, and then asked, "How did he answer?" ”

Mo Lin said: "Zhou Xuan said that he is not afraid that His Majesty will no longer reuse him, so there is no need to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix." ”

The emperor smiled: "He's not afraid, so he doesn't need to, in his eyes, it's a deal." After saying that, the smile dissipated with the voice.

Merlin quietly disappeared behind the curtain.

The emperor said to himself: "It turns out that he thinks so in his heart, so that Jin Yao will not become a grudge with him and be depressed all his life, so I should thank him." ”

Only then did Eunuch Jinzhong step forward and whispered: "Your Majesty, if that kid is still angry, don't take it to heart." ”

The emperor drank the tea, and his calm expression was a little stunned: "The child has grown up, and when he grows up, he has more ideas." ”

Jin Zhong silently stopped talking and gently poured tea for the emperor.

The emperor did not drink any more, but reclined down again and closed his eyes to recuperate, and the eunuch Jinzhong covered the emperor with a thin blanket, bowed his head and withdrew.

The second prince, who was given dinner, completely relieved his apprehension, and guarded the Zhou Marquis Mansion tightly in high spirits, and other officials and generals could not come to visit.

Even Zhou Xuan, except for the eunuchs and eunuchs, did not let too many people approach, so as not to disturb him and affect his recuperation.

Zhou Xuan's room was quiet.

"But it's going to be lively out there." Qingfeng said to Zhou Xuan, "The whole capital knows that Gongzi you have been severely blamed, and many people even say that you were beaten half to death - I guess it was the five princes who spread rumors." ”

Zhou Xuan lay on the bed, three days later, although the wound still looked hideous, he was already able to move his body on the bed, at this time he closed his eyes and listened to Qing Feng's words, and he seemed to be asleep and didn't seem to care, and opened his eyes when he heard this.

"The whole city knows about it?" He frowned and asked, "What about Chen Danzhu?" ”

Qing Feng was stunned: "I should also know, the Xiaowei named Zhulin next to Miss Danzhu has long ears and eyes, and he asks for news everywhere——"

Zhou Xuan interrupted his chatter: "Then why didn't she come to see me?" ”
