Lan Xin found it, and Yuan Li's worries were gone, and he began to calculate how to rush Moyan to ask for these ten cities.

Yuan Li intends to succeed to the throne of the four princes, so he wants to exercise him many times, but this fourth prince is not something he can see if he wants to, because of various things, there is a gap between them, and he has wanted to make up for it for so many years, but he has not changed the heart of the four princes, Yuan Li heard that the four princes had returned to the imperial city, and he was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked people to summon him into the palace.

Yuan Li waited at the door of the study very early, so that the king of a country could wait, which showed what kind of position he had in Yuan Li's mind.

It is not an exaggeration to come out after a long time, as soon as the four princes arrived, Yuan Li's eyes were a little red, his fingers were a little trembling, and he tried to stabilize his emotions, waiting for the son who could not meet him with great difficulty.

"Hugh, you're back!" Yuan Li still couldn't hold back his excitement, and stepped forward and grabbed the arm of the fourth prince.

That's right, the fourth prince is Yuan Xiu, who once ran away to avoid the killing of each other, but now he is here again for a woman.

Facing Yuan Li's movedness, Yuan Xiu didn't have any expression on his face, but replied stiffly: "Father." ”

"It's good to be back! It's good to be back! Yuan Li took his arm and pulled him into the study. The two of them were like ordinary father and son, one sitting on one side of the low collapse.

"Hugh, where have you been this year? At the beginning, you didn't say goodbye, I let people look for you for a long time, and the entire Qi country was going to rummage, I was really afraid that something would happen to you, and now, seeing that you are safe and sound, I am also relieved. Yuan Li began to talk about his worries.

"Hugh, how are you doing this year? I'm really worried about you, your dormitory in the palace, I have people clean it every day, just to wait for you to come back, Hugh, you won't leave when you come back this time, right? Yuan Li stared at Yuan Xiu with those extremely eager eyes.

Yuan Xiu still felt that somewhere in his heart was sour, the man in front of him was already full of silver hair, and the corners of his eyes and mouth were engraved with traces of time, such a low tone of the fourth, who would believe that it was said by the king of a country? Yuan Xiu gradually felt a little relieved, he didn't know whether it was right or wrong in the past, but the person in front of him was really his father.

"Father, I'm fine, you don't have to worry, I won't leave this time, I'll stay with you." Yuan Xiu said.

Yuan Li was like a child who had gotten a piece of candy, he smiled happily, and kept saying good and good, this kind of heartfelt smile could only be seen in front of Yuan Xiu.

"Xiu'er, it's just the right time for you to come back this time, there is a particularly important matter, I can't find a suitable candidate, you are back, I am relieved to leave this matter to you." Yuan Li was excited.

"Father, it's enough to have all the royal brothers share the worries of my father, I was born not to like these battles in the palace, but I still like a carefree life, so if my father has anything important, I still leave it to a few royal brothers." Yuan Xiu didn't come back this time for these battles, but if I stepped in now, I am afraid that it would be difficult for me to say that I want to get out myself.

"Hugh, why do you always refuse to help me? You should know that you're the only one I've ever believed! Of course, your imperial brothers are helping me, but I don't know that they are more helping them to collect power on their own. I'm old, and I really don't want to wait for me a hundred years from now, they will fight for the throne, brothers, and fratricide, so, Hugh, you are the most suitable person. Yuan Li is now planning how to push Yuan Xiu up step by step, so this time he will never let go of his heart again, anything he is unwilling to accept, you must learn to accept it now, you are a king, you must learn to learn.

"Father......" Yuan Xiu still wanted to continue to shirk.

Yuan Li didn't give him any chance to refute, he directly took down a scroll from the desk, handed it to Yuan Li, and then explained to him in detail what Yuan Xiu was going to do later.

Yuan Li gently patted Yuan Xiu's shoulder: "Xiu'er, you remember, some wars are not something you can stay away from if you choose to stay away, when you are born in such a family, it is already doomed, you must go through these bloody storms, as for the end, it no longer matters who wins and who loses, the important thing is that you must understand that the smoke of gunpowder has never been far away from you!" ”

The news of Yuan Xiu's return soon spread to all corners, and several princes were crazy with jealousy, none of them thought that Yuan Xiu could be entrusted with a heavy task as soon as he came back, and their sons who served diligently on the side were punished for thinking about it behind closed doors.

The eldest prince was born to the queen, and he had more hope of taking over the throne in the future, so those princes who had little hope began to silently have their own plans, and early the next morning, the second prince and the third prince came to the residence of the eldest prince.

"Okay, I've heard everything about you, you're all brothers, what's there to fight for!" The eldest prince scolded the two of them, as the eldest prince, it is natural to set an example, no matter what you think in your heart, you have to make a brother, a friend and a brother outside.

"Big brother, it's not that I deliberately want to go against him, you don't know how much silver the third child has made me lose." The second prince began to be indignant.

"Second brother, I'm helping you, you've managed the post house for so many years, and how many benefits you've made from it, I'm afraid you can't count it yourself, right? Now is the time to be nervous, you are still so high-profile, if your father knows about it, can you still have your good fruit to eat? What about you? I helped you, but instead of being grateful, you affected me and made me reprimanded by my father, which was really kind to be a donkey's liver and lungs. The third prince looked extremely aggrieved.

The eldest prince looked very stable, and he was not in a hurry to refute their words, but after listening to them, he smiled lightly: "They are all brothers, and they can't fight for a few taels of silver, it's really too undeserved, don't provoke everyone to see the jokes, when the time comes, the father and the emperor will not be so simple as grounding you." ”

"Also, if you two sneak over today, if your father knows about it, you will definitely be guilty of one more degree." The eldest prince said with a smile.

The second prince and the third prince subconsciously glanced at the door, and pulled their collars upward, trying to cover their faces.

"Big brother, if it weren't for something very important, we wouldn't have come out dressed like this!" The second prince looked at the black clothes on his body, and the undisguised disgust in his eyes.

"That's it, big brother, you can guard us a little, don't let my father know." The third prince echoed.

"I know, if I don't cover for you, now you have been arrested by your father and taken back to blame." The eldest prince said.

"Tell me, what are you sneaking here for?"

"The fourth is back!" The second prince and the third prince said in unison, after speaking, the two looked at each other, and then looked at the eldest prince, and sure enough, after hearing their words, the eldest prince's eyes changed a little.

"It's a good thing that the fourth child is back, do you need to come and tell me so secretly?" The eldest prince looked calm, and then continued.

"You guys don't want to trick me, do you? I tell you, don't even think about it, I have a little money a month, but I don't have any spare money to eat and drink. ”

"Big brother!" The second prince really couldn't listen to it anymore, so he quickly interrupted him.

"Big brother! Do you really not understand, or are you pretending to be confused? The fourth child is back, don't you really know what it means? "The second prince didn't believe it, and the eldest prince couldn't see it.

"What's the point?" The eldest prince looked confused.

"Big brother, we are all smart people, don't be sloppy here, who of our brothers doesn't know, the fourth is the pearl of my father's palm, from childhood to adulthood, as long as he is there, when will we get a word of praise from our father? All the delicious and fun things will come to him first, the palace in the palace is also his most luxurious, and the mansion built outside is also his biggest and most beautiful, which of these things does not make us unhappy in our hearts? I thought he was far away, and we would be fine, but I didn't expect him to come back! Or at this juncture, what kind of intentions does he have? Hasn't the eldest brother seen it clearly? When the second prince talked about the fourth prince, the uncontrollable jealousy and hatred in his eyes could be seen clearly.

Even the third prince, a person who seems to have no quarrel with the world, can't help but taste it in his heart when he faces the fourth prince outside, he is also the son of his father, why is the difference in treatment so great? It's a question they've never been able to figure out, and it's a question they've always been afraid of.

"Big brother, we all know that the person who will inherit the great unification in the future will definitely be the big brother." The Three Princes said.

After hearing this, the eldest prince's eyes flashed slightly, although you have always thought so in your heart, but now it is too sensitive to mention this, and immediately made an angry look: "Third child! Don't talk nonsense! If these words reach the ears of my father, I'm afraid the three of us won't be able to eat and walk around! ”

"Big brother, what the third brother said is also the truth, now there are only three of us brothers in the whole house, what else can't be said? Big brother, you should know, we have been brothers for so many years, our sincerity to the big brother, presumably the big brother also knows that we are really for the sake of the big brother. The second prince began to explain non-stop.
