Chapter Twenty-Three: The Temptation of the Devil
With a bang, the chopsticks in Fu Nuo's hand fell on the table, and Fu Heng's words came to an abrupt end.
Fu Nuo's face turned pale, and she recalled her previous life, the second prince was the future crown prince.
When the princes were studying in the academy, the second brother was naturally honored to be a companion, and once upon a time, he also said the same thing, and soon after, he became the prince's companion.
It's just that when I hear such words again today, Fu Nuo only feels that her ears are about to burst, this is much earlier, she is only seven years old this year, will everything change? So what is she going to do?
"Little Noor, what's wrong with you?"
Tears welled up in her eyes, and she struggled to lower her head, her shoulders trembling slightly.
Soon, she calmed down, bit her lip, and forced the tears back.
"Noir, what's wrong?"
Mrs. Fu saw that something was wrong with Fu Nuo and asked.
Fu Nuo raised his head, shook his head at Mrs. Fu, and then looked at Fu Heng and asked, "Second brother, why do you think so?" ”
"What?"
"Second Prince......."
"Noir, why are you so pale?"
"Why do you think that?" Fu Nuo didn't answer the second brother's question, but stared at him anyway, chasing after the question just now.
"I probably feel that the second prince has his own way of governing the country, and I admire him very much."
Fu Heng was stared at by Fu Nuo like this, but he became nervous, he said nonsense, and he didn't know what he said.
"Huh........"
Fu Nuo gently exhaled a breath of turbid air and sneered.
She originally didn't know the details of the second prince, and she might believe Fu Heng's words, but now that she knows, she only feels ironic.
She turned her head and looked at Fu Heng's embarrassed face, feeling a little guilty in her heart, and feeling like a numb heart.
The second prince is a ruthless person, and he can be regarded as the number one, and he mutilates his brothers and siblings, which is really not much better than the third prince.
And his rhetoric is just on paper, memorizing the words in the book, and then relaying them to others, pretending to be unfathomable, in fact, it is a straw bag.
He pretended to be too good, pretended to be too similar, deceived Prime Minister Fu Cheng, deceived Fu Heng, deceived the emperor, and even he himself was deceived, so addicted to it, he didn't even know where it was true and where it was fake.
It was expected that he would lose to the third prince.
Fu Nuo couldn't understand why, for so long, the emperor didn't doubt the ability of the second prince at all, not even the minister........ Everything was so calm and calm that it felt weird.......
"Noir, am I wrong?"
Fu Heng looked at Fu Nuo with a puzzled expression.
Fu Nuo woke up from the contemplation just now, and she asked very cautiously, "Second brother, do you believe in your eyes?" ”
"Of course, what's wrong? Noll ....... The second prince ........"
Fu Heng didn't say it, just looked at Fu Nuo, wondering if Fu Nuo was like this because of the second prince.
"Second brother, I believe that I am not wrong, but my eyes know it, and my heart must also know it."
Fu Nuo glanced at Fu Heng, picked up the new chopsticks prepared by the maid, and prepared to eat......
"Okay, No'er, don't eat it, the dishes are cold. Pull it down......."
Fu Nuo watched the dishes on the table being removed, and some of the dishes had not been touched, which was really a waste.
"Let's do it all over again......"
Mrs. Fu commanded, looked at Nuo'er again, and asked, "What's wrong with you today?" Noir, did someone say anything to you? Talk to your mother. ”
Mrs. Fu really didn't believe Fu Nuo's performance just now, like a seven-year-old child, so she pushed Fu Nuo's weird performance to the instigation of others.
"No, mother, I looked at the book and said, seeing is not necessarily believing, but the heart and the eye are the same, it is true....... No one taught me, it was I who saw it myself........" After speaking, he smiled at Mrs. Fu.
Madame nodded and said, "Nuo'er, don't read these strange books in the future, let Mother Li invite you a very good teacher to teach you." ”
Fu Nuo didn't promise Mrs. Fu, but his heart was restless, everyone was drunk and he woke up alone, which was really uncomfortable.
Fu Nuo didn't want the things of his previous life to happen again, but he couldn't find any way, but he told everyone to stay away from the whirlpool of power, the farther away the better, and stay away from the capital to live incognito.
It's a pity that people who have been touched by power will not give up easily at all, like moths to a fire, using their lives to sacrifice the temptation of demons, they have long been blinded, but they are just ashes.......
"Noor, why are you sullen today..... What's on your mind? ”
Fu Heng looked at Fu Nuo puzzled, he really couldn't think of it, a seven-year-old child, in a deep mansion compound, if he wanted the wind to be windy, to be rainy, what was there to be unhappy.
But he still asked like this, he didn't want his sister to be unhappy, maybe there was really something unhappy, say it, and he would help her solve it.
"No, second brother, how can I have something on my mind?"
Fu Heng smiled and said, "That's good...... It's good to take you out another day......."
"Great, second brother......."
Fu Nuo smiled, but his face was calm, not even a trace of his voice waved, Fu Heng's eyes flashed with disappointment, he thought that his fun-loving sister, hearing such a promise, would definitely jump up with joy.
She used to be like this, but now it's not, and when girls grow up, it's really hard to figure out........
Fu Heng thought about this, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
"Mother, can you still live when you die?"
"Why do you ask that, people can't live when they die."
"Really? Mother....... Is it really impossible to live? ”
A very surprised expression flashed on Mrs. Fu's face, and she asked, "Nuo'er, what kind of strange question are you, how can people live when they die, and if they die, they will die.......
"Mother, when a person dies, is there still a soul?"
"How do I know this, Xu has it, right?" Mrs. Fu asked her like this, and her face was a little displeased.
"Second brother, what do you think?"
Still immersed in the question of why Fu Nuo was not excited, Fu Heng was taken aback by Fu Nuo's sudden question, and the tea was squirted out just now when he drank it.
Fu Heng coughed a few times in embarrassment, and asked the maid to clean his face for him.
"Don't embarrass your second brother, Nuo'er, go back and let your second brother have a good meal." Mrs. Fu instructed.
"It doesn't matter, No'er, I can eat a few more bowls for dinner here."
"You're just too used to No'er, how can you get this?" Mrs. Fu said angrily.
"Hehe, it doesn't matter, mother, I'm just such a sister. No'er, the second brother doesn't know what you just asked, wait for me to ask my husband, and then answer you, okay? ”
Fu Nuo felt that he was just trying to find an excuse to confess to them, it seemed that it would not work, and if he did, he would probably think that he was crazy.
She sighed in her heart, and showed a big smile to Fu Heng, and said, "Don't worry, second brother, you promised to take me out to play, don't forget." ”
