Volume 2: Cinnabar in the Heart Chapter 250 The Covenant of Father and Son 1
"The third master can not go." Qingmo Road.
Xiao Dongli turned his head to look at him, "Others don't know why they have to go, don't you know?" ”
Hearing this, Qingmo hung his head and was silent.
It's time to go.
Fight for yourself, fight for her.
Long banquet, chess, fight for a game, win or lose at will.
—————— this seat is the dividing line where frozen pear children's shoes are about to go out——————
When Shangguan Jingyu returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Fu Hui was already waiting there, but the charm was long gone, and Xu felt that he had no face to see Shangguan Jingyu.
Protecting a weak woman can still make a fuss like this, it really deserves to be a shame in the face of the Demon Palace.
When Shangguan Jingyu went back, Fu Rui dared to tell her about the four ghosts making trouble in the General's Mansion.
Shangguan Jingyu said, don't tell anyone about this matter, otherwise the Prime Minister's Mansion will inevitably cause a lot of trouble. Fleur also knew the seriousness of the matter, but she didn't dare to say it, so she hurriedly nodded and swallowed it in her stomach.
It's just that at this time, Fu Rui didn't forget to ask about Fu Shaohong.
"He ......," Shangguan Jingyu smiled, "I'll let Zhiyuan and Mr. ask another day." ”
Fleur nodded, and what Miss said was naturally credible.
Shangguan Jingyu said, "It's late at night, don't think about it, wash and sleep!" ”
It's time to stop thinking!
It's just that there are some things that don't happen if you don't think about it. It's like a lot of things that you think will pass after all, but they still stop in your heart, and they become eternal hurdles, and you can never get over them.
It's like Xiao Dongli was really summoned to the palace by the emperor.
From the moment he learned the news, Shangguan Jingyu began to fidget. What should have happened has happened after all, and it is inevitable.
A heart, then pulled up, never let go.
If I had known, this parting would have been my life, and I would have accompanied you no matter what. At the ends of the earth, on the battlefield of life and death, I will be born and die with you.
But Heaven has never given me a second chance.
I'm going to collect your bones.
Today's sky is extraordinarily blue, as blue as the sea, so clean that there is no clutter.
Xiao Dongli walked slowly in the long palace road, changed into the heavy brocade clothes and jade clothes that a prince should have, and was led by Liu Zhong towards the Hall of Morality. Today, the early dynasty has ended, and the ministers have dispersed, only a few important ministers are still in the Daode Palace, waiting for Xiao Dongli's arrival.
Liu Zhong shook off the dust, "The three princes are overjoyed." ”
"Where does the joy come from?" Xiao Dongli asked knowingly.
Liu Zhong said with a smile, "The emperor has enabled the three princes, it is a great joy, and entrusting him with a heavy task is a different view." Isn't it a great joy that the heavy responsibility of this Dashuo is now falling on the shoulders of the three princes? ”
Xiao Dongli was not annoyed, whether Liu Zhong's words were true or false, his face was still indifferent, "Oh, is it? It's a pity that Mr. Liu is going to be disappointed. ”
"Miscellaneous families have always been inaccurate in looking at people, and it is a joke for the three princes to treat them as miscellaneous families." Liu Zhong said casually, how hot and cold there was in his words, like a person drinking water knows himself.
Xiao Dong didn't answer and walked into the Hall of Morality.
When I went in, Xiao Dongming was also there.
Seeing Xiao Dong leaving, the ministers looked at each other, not knowing why the emperor suddenly summoned the unfavored third prince. Although the three princes had meritorious service to King Qin earlier and saved the emperor, now they are talking about major events in the DPRK and China, and it is about the invasion of Beizhao.
This seems to have nothing to do with the Three Princes.
The crown prince has died, and the remaining two princes are the elders, who are orderly and orderly, and there is a difference between respect and inferiority.
The mother of the second prince is the deputy queen, and she is only one step away from the queen. Naturally, it is more noble than the mother of the third prince, Yu Zhaoyi.
The so-called deputy queen is actually not a position in the palace, but a vague concept.
But for a harem without a queen, this is undoubtedly the highest honor. can justifiably govern the six palaces, do the affairs of the six palaces, and hold the power of the queen.
"Son-in-law, see father." Xiao Dongli saluted, and he was not afraid of who was standing next to him, calm and calm, without the slightest flustery.
Xiao Sheng sat on it and said, "Get up!" ”
There were six Shangshu present, including Hairun, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, and Shangguan Feng, the prime minister of the dynasty. Of course, there are also Fu Sheng and Nian Shizhong, two military generals and important ministers.
Other than that, there aren't many people.
There are some things that the less people you know, the better. This is the so-called secret of the imperial court, and it should not be leaked too much.
"My father summoned his sons, but I don't know what to do." Xiao Dongli got up and stood aside respectfully.
Xiao Sheng said, "Now that Beizhao is in the realm, as a prince, you should share the responsibility for the imperial court." As soon as these words came out, the courtiers somewhat understood what the emperor meant.
But the prince is the prince after all, how can the prince of one dynasty go on the expedition?
Even Fu Sheng, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, was also taken aback, "What does the emperor mean, let the second prince go out with the army?" ”
Xiao Sheng said, "The second prince is now the elder, how can he go out with the army, he should study and supervise the country in the court." ”
Hearing this, everyone's eyes fell on Xiao Dongli. The three princes, who have always ignored the government and politics, even if they are strong in martial arts, they are afraid that even if they go on the expedition, they will be just talking on paper, can they lead the soldiers and fight the war?
"Your Majesty, the three princes have traveled to the people all the year round, and they don't know much about the affairs of the court, if they go on an expedition, they are afraid that they will not have enough experience." The military department still saluted.
This is indeed a key statement.
Hairun also stepped forward and saluted, "Your Majesty, there are generals in the court, why don't you send troops?" Now that the prince wants to go on the expedition, if Beizhao knows, wouldn't he laugh at me that Dashuo is useless? ”
Shangguan Feng also said, "Your Majesty, the three princes have no combat experience, and they don't know how to transfer troops. It is better to send an experienced soldier to the expedition than to let the three princes go on the expedition. ”
In this regard, Shangguan Feng's analysis is still pertinent.
Not for anything else, if Dashuo is injured, he, the prime minister, will not be much better.
He still understands the truth of both prosperity and loss.
Fu Sheng saluted, "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to lead the troops to the battle." ”
Nian Shizhong also followed, "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to meet the enemy Beizhao for the emperor." ”
Xiao Dongming's eyes turned slightly, and he knelt on the ground, "Father, the third brother has not been in the court for many years, and he is used to traveling abroad, so it is indeed difficult to take on important responsibilities. The retainers have lived in the eastern capital for a long time, and they are not well versed in the affairs of the court. But Erchen also knows that the country is in trouble, and the husband is responsible. The sons are willing to serve the dogs and horses for Dashuo, and fight for their father and the emperor for a peaceful and prosperous world. ”
How sonorous and powerful these words are, and how high-sounding.
There was silence all around, and no one spoke again.
Xiao Sheng raised his eyes and stared coldly at Xiao Dongli, who had been standing there without speaking.
Everyone is preventing Xiao Dongli from going on the expedition, but what about Xiao Dongli? No sorrow, no joy, no anger or anger, just stood there, watching everyone kneel down one after another, refusing to let him go on the expedition.
This feeling made Xiao Sheng feel unhappy.
It seems that everything has already been seen through by Xiao Dongli, as if everyone's performance has long been within his expectations. That attitude of looking down on fame and fortune and looking down on everything made Xiao Sheng feel an inexplicable embarrassment.
"Third child, don't you have anything to say?" Xiao Sheng couldn't hold back in the end.
Hearing this, Xiao Dongli seemed to have just come back to his senses, and actually smiled lightly. This smile made everyone stunned for a moment, and they couldn't understand what Xiao Dongli meant.
But hearing Xiao Dong's departure, "My father is the king, and the king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die." The sons are willing to be the vanguard, and the horses are the experience in front of the army. The father only appoints a trusted person as a general, and the son is willing to be a deputy with the person, and does not seek the power of the three armies, you can be regarded as assured. ”
Xiao Sheng frowned.
His son's eyes are too poisonous.
Everyone thought that they were pretending to be very good, and what could not be done by the prince, except for Hairun, one or two said that the military power could not be handed over to the third prince. The emperor knew, and so did the ministers.
I thought it was said vaguely, what a high-sounding excuse!
However, no one could escape Xiao Dongli's eyes.
In a word, everyone was shut up.
"Let's all go down, I have something to say to the third child." Xiao Sheng got up and went out with his sleeves brushed up.
Xiao Dongli just lowered his eyes for a moment, and then slowly raised them, he turned his head to glance at Xiao Dongming, who was also looking at each other, without any expression on his face.
Xiao Dongming tried to find the joy, anger and sorrow on his face, but unfortunately he was disappointed.
On Xiao Dongli's face, there will always be indifference and alienation, except for the sincere smile when he met her, there is no true affection to be revealed.
Reincarnated in this desolate family, how could he have had half a bit of warmth.
There is no one to warm him, why should he warm others with his heart in vain, it is better to keep it - leave it to her to warm alone! Warm the snow of winter, warm the blood in your bones.
In the pavilion in the sun, the wind blew through the surrounding curtains, making a clear sound.
Liu Zhong knowingly led the people around him and guarded the periphery of the pavilion, not letting people approach casually.
Xiao Sheng turned to look at his son in front of him, this son who had never been raised by his side, familiar and unfamiliar, "I don't want to make it difficult for others, I said, you can choose." ”
"The father said that it was either with relatives or on the march. Erchen, do you have a choice? Xiao Dongli looked up.
Hearing this, Xiao Sheng twisted his eyebrows slightly behind his hands, "As long as you are willing, you have a choice." ”
Xiao Dongli chuckled twice, "If you are willing, you won't enter the palace." ”
Xiao Sheng let out a long breath, "All the things in this world, if you want to get them, you have to pay." ”
"I hope my father will keep his promise." Xiao Dongli didn't say much, just half-hung his eyebrows, looking at the frost moon flower placed in the pavilion. Soon, the spring flowers in the imperial garden will bloom, but unfortunately he can't accompany her to see the spring flowers bloom.
Really, it's a pity.
"This time, I will let Fu Sheng go on the expedition, he is a veteran of the DPRK and China, and he will definitely protect you. When the time comes, I will welcome you back in the Eastern Capital with a great victory. Xiao Sheng let out a long breath.
Xiao Dongli leaned over and saluted, "Thank you to your father for your success." ”
Xiao Sheng passed by him, didn't take two steps but paused, "Actually, you have another choice, I really don't have a daughter to use to get married, but there is another person who can give it a try regardless of age or appearance." As long as you can find it! ”
"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Xiao Dongli opened his mouth lightly.
Hearing this, Xiao Sheng snorted coldly and walked away.
Those who are gone are not in the calculation.
This damn darkness, if you can get out of it, count it as one.
In this cool place, one can survive one count.
Turning around, looking at Xiao Sheng's distant back, Xiao Dongli slowly walked out of the pavilion and stood outside the pavilion for a long time, his expression was light and calm. With a sigh of relief, Xiao Dongli sat down, took out the Xun in his sleeve and blew it leisurely.
The sound of Xun is melodious, faintly stained with wounds.
Parting, parting, who is with a long song?
Who said that parting is bitter, since ancient times, lovesickness breaks people's intestines.
Sauvignon Blanc, thousands of miles away; Sigh tonight, when is the time to return?
The sound of footsteps was gradually approaching, and the sound of Xun stopped abruptly, Xiao Dongli got up, raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Dongming who was sitting in front of him, "Why is the second brother here?" ”
"You Xun seems to have seen it somewhere." Xiao Dongming said, "Why didn't I know you would blow Xun?" What is this blowing? It's a great sound. ”
"The second brother naturally never heard the music I composed myself." Xiao Dongli put Xun into his sleeve, "Is there something wrong with the second brother?" ”
"Does Father really want you to go on the expedition?" Xiao Dongming asked.
He smiled faintly, "Shouldn't the second brother have known about this early in the morning?" Why do you need to ask? I'm not a golden mouth, and it's useless to say it. ”
Xiao Dongming smiled slightly embarrassed, "That's what I said." This major event in the court is not up to the emperor. ”
"If the second brother has nothing else to do, I will leave first." Xiao Dongli got up to leave.
Xiao Dongming said, "If you leave, I'm afraid you won't be able to drink my wedding wine, do you want us to get drunk tonight?" ”
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Dongli immediately laughed lightly, "Why is the second brother in such a hurry?" Let's wait for the decree to come down before making a final decision! ”
"Xiao Dongli!" Xiao Dongming suddenly shouted, stopping his footsteps, "I will definitely marry her." ”
Xiao Dongli turned around, straightened his body and stared at Xiao Dongming, the smile on his lips was a little cold, and the light in his eyes was even more profound.
That kind of eyes, like a cold wind from hell, can feel pain when it cuts across the cheeks.
"In this life, I'm afraid I can't." He said it so clearly, "Unless, of course, she nods." ”
Xiao Dongming was stunned, "What do you mean by this?" ”
"I won't go against her will, but no one will be able to force her." Xiao Dongli's words made Xiao Dongming in front of him more and more incomprehensible, "She can make her own decisions, but no one will be her master." ”
"We are an unmarried couple." Xiao Dongming gritted his teeth.
Xiao Dongli said lightly, "Then it's not a husband and wife." Second brother, you have to be forgiving and forgiving, and letting go of others is also letting go of yourself. ”
"None of us was at fault for that night, if the second brother doesn't mind, I, as a younger brother, don't mind stabbing it out. I am not welcome to see both horizontally and vertically, and the so-called splendid future is not important. ”
"It's just that the reputation of the Second Prince's Mansion that the second brother has painstakingly built up is afraid that it will be ruined in one fell swoop. Anyway, I, a prodigal son of the rivers and lakes, am used to wandering, so I don't care about walking around and seeing, and then walking around Dashuo a few times. ”
"Second brother doesn't know how far he can go, can he go to Beizhao and come back? I'm afraid that the concubine is reluctant! ”
After speaking, Xiao Dongli turned around indifferently and walked away.
It is useless to say a lot of things, but a lot of things must also be said, if you don't wake up for a long time, some people are afraid that they will forget what they did in the first place.
Xiao Dongli felt that there were too many things to see in his life, so he didn't care about them.
But Xiao Dongming is now the candidate with the best chance of winning, and his reputation is much more valuable than Xiao Dongli's everything. Not allowing for mistakes is Xiao Dongming's biggest mistake today.
A piece of holy edict, Qin Tianjian selected a good day and an auspicious day, ordered 300,000 troops, and Fu Sheng was the commander of the three armies, leading the troops to the battle, and the third prince Xiao Dongli was the vanguard general.
As soon as this edict came out, it instantly caused an uproar in the eastern capital.
Fu Sheng knelt in the courtyard of the Zhenguo General's Mansion to receive the order, and after sending Liu Zhong away, he looked at the holy decree in his hand thoughtfully. That expression, as if the holy decree in his hand was extraordinarily heavy, made his expression very solemn.
"It's not a day or two to fight with Beizhao, why are you ...... this time" Old Madam Fu was puzzled, thought about it and said, "Is it because of the third prince?" ”
Fu Sheng sighed lightly and didn't say anything.
In the locked room not far away, there was a fierce sound of hands slapping on the door, "Dad, Dad, let me out!" Daddy—"
