However, he never thought that this man in black would be his second brother, so what kind of second brother would hide from him, these were all things that Ling Changwu needed to think about and consider.

"Actually...... It's not a big deal, it's just that I'm not good at dealing with women, not to mention, it's a woman like Nangong Yueruo, I really don't want to stay there for a quarter of an hour. The second prince said in an understated tone, and inadvertently opened his folding fan in his hand.

"Second brother, since there are only the two of us here, we are not allowed to play such twists and turns, tell me what you want to say, if I know, I will definitely tell you." Ling Changwu looked serious.

If it was, Ling Changwu would definitely not be so relaxed before, but just because Ling Huai's words just now were enough to make Ling Changwu relax his vigilance.

Ling Huai shook his head, "Seventh brother, you really think a lot, I just want to go boating on the lake with you." ”

"If that's the case, I don't know if the foolish brother can ask the second brother some simple things, and please, the second brother must tell the truth." Ling Changwu suddenly looked preoccupied.

"You stupid boy, my brother will definitely tell you. Ling Huai's face was doting, and from time to time he gently patted Ling Changwu's head with the folding fan in his hand.

"You say you're the Man in Black? What proof do you have that you are the Man in Black? Ling Changwu still had a serious and puzzled face, he wanted to believe Ling Huai, but so many years of experience in the palace told Ling Changwu that he couldn't easily trust anyone, even if this person was his brother, he was just as untrustworthy.

"I don't have any evidence to prove that I'm a man in black, but what I can tell you is, don't be so wary of me, we're all on the battlefield." The second prince still said in his plain tone.

"You guys? Why should I trust you? Ling Changwu's face was rigorous, if it was in the past, he would have been willing to gamble, but now he can't, he must take every step is right, and there is absolutely no mistake allowed, otherwise the whole army will be wiped out, and Nangong Jin'an will be involved.

"You know better than anyone else in your heart, why are you still pretending to be confused!" Ling Huai laughed, he never thought that the so-called prince of the nest in the mouth of everyone would have so many fancy intestines.

"Then why are you helping me?" Ling Changwu tried hard to recall in his memory that he didn't have any deal with the second prince, what kind of interests could make the second prince willing to take risks to save him, and even, willing to trigger the queen's bottom line willingly for himself.

As long as it is any person in the harem, no matter who it is, from the concubines in the harem to all the maids and slaves who do things, everyone knows it, and no one knows it.

At that time, Concubine Xi Guifei did not fight or favor, but she became the person who was favored, and the current queen, on the other hand, used all means to keep the eldest prince by her side, and she kept the second prince by her side.

As a result, he sent his own son, the fourth prince, to other concubines, just to show his demeanor and virtuousness.

Now, how could Ling Changwu not know that everything in front of him was no accident, how could he not understand the difficulty and sinister of this after several years in the deep palace.

"When I first came to the Queen, I was a child who didn't know anything, and I was only four years old at that time, but you don't know that at my age, I was carrying too many things that I should have at my age." Ling Huai plunged himself into memories.

"Me and the fourth prince, we exchanged mothers, all this is arranged by the queen, she just wants others to think that she is a virtuous and virtuous queen, and she never considers our feelings."

"When I used to read books, I always don't remember, it was she who let me warm books over and over again in the snow in the cold winter, but fortunately, it was your mother, she saved me." Ling Huai glanced up at Ling Changwu.

Ling Changwu looked puzzled, he had never heard his mother talk about this matter, and he had never heard his mother mention it.

"Perhaps, this matter is just a small matter for your mother, so small that it is not enough to worry about it, but that day, the bowl of ginger tea sent by Concubine Xi in the snow is the best memory in my heart."

"On the day of Concubine Xi's unexpected death, you were not the only one who was sad, but on that day, I was also sad when I hid alone in the house."

"However, I have quickly figured it out, I must use my life to protect you, after all, you are the only son of Concubine Xi in this world." The second prince, Ling Huai, said with a serious face.

"Second brother, do you mean that you want to repay your mother's kindness to you, so you saved me again and again?" Ling Changwu asked suspiciously.

If he believed it all, Ling Changwu would not be so naïve, but if he didn't believe it at all, Ling Changwu would not be able to do it.

After all, there were a few times when the man in black almost lost his life to save himself, and Ling Changwu had seen these things with his own eyes.

However, the only thing that Ling Changwu has no way to determine now is whether the second brother in front of him is a man in black or not, he just knows that his second brother is proficient in love chess books, but he has never heard of the martial arts of the second prince Ling Huai.

"It's okay, I know that over the years, you have faced everything alone, and even leaving the palace should not be what you want, but it is also a helpless choice."

"You are in the palace, you can find out the news about Concubine Xi more quickly, but this is also a great danger to your safety."

"The reason why I choose to save you as a man in black again and again is because I don't want you to have too much burden."

"But this time, the reason why I suddenly told you all the truth of the matter is because I think the time has come, I don't want you to look at me like an enemy anymore, in fact, I also want to have a younger brother."

"It's just that my mother died very early, and I can only grow up next to the queen, and although the fourth prince has lived with my mother for a while, because of his mother's death, he has also traveled to several concubines."

"I have never returned to my biological mother, so I will be so close to him and cherish each other so much." The second prince explained with a serious face.

Ling Changwu smiled and didn't say anything, it seems that this time it was really Wang Cheng who was too careless, otherwise Wang Cheng's skills would not have been seen through by the second prince.

"Second brother, I believe in you, but soon we will have our own families, you will soon marry the second miss of Nangong Mansion, and I will also marry the eldest lady of Nangong Mansion."

"The two of us will not be destined to get along." Ling Changwu said with a serious face, after all, everyone in the entire Lingcheng City knew that the eldest lady of Nangong Mansion was treated differently in Nangong's house.

And the second lady of Nangong Mansion is obviously a concubine but enjoys the treatment of a concubine, the two of them are two incompatible people, if you have to let the two of them get along together, it can only be as wonderful as Mars hitting the earth.

"Seventh brother, I can understand what you said, but you should also know something about me, the reason why I married the second miss of Nangong Mansion is just because it is the queen's will, even if it is not the second miss of Nangong Mansion, even if it is just a casual woman, as long as the queen asks me to marry, I will marry her."

"No complaints!" Ling Huai's face was helpless, he seemed to be a puppet in the hands of the queen at his mercy, no matter what the queen asked him to do, he had to do it, otherwise it would be a big rebellion.

Sometimes, he even envied Ling Changwu, at least he could live freely outside the palace by himself, away from the high walls and red bricks, away from right and wrong.

"Second brother, I know what is going on between you and the fourth brother, I will never ask a word, and no one will want to take a word from me, but what I want to tell you is that since I can know everything between you, then other people can also know the little secrets between you, if you really want to do it without leakage, you must be extremely careful in the future."

Ling Changwu seemed to believe the words of the second prince at this moment, indeed, there was no entanglement of interests between the second prince and himself, all they wanted was a lover and a benefit.

However, just because the second prince saved his life, Ling Changwu can tell him, this is Ling Changwu's upbringing since childhood and his last tenderness between his brothers.

The second prince was full of joy, he gently patted Ling Changwu on the shoulder, and said comfortingly, "Actually, I envy you, at least you can fly freely, don't care what the people of the entire mausoleum city say about you, how can they understand the grievances in this high wall." ”

"How do they know that although we are princes, we are very envious of the lives of ordinary people, and we just want to live a simple life with our wives and children, and the happiness of having our father and mother by our side is all we look forward to." After speaking, the second prince waved the folding fan in his hand and left with a lonely face.

Ling Changwu looked at such a back, and he secretly swore in his heart that in the future, he would definitely become very powerful.

He also secretly swore in his heart that in the future, if he is the king, Nangong Jin'an will definitely be a concubine, and if he is the king, then the queen will be the only one Nangong Jin'an.
