Chapter 52: the Heartbroken Brother

Since the founding of the Great Xia Dynasty, the Guo family has been the three major families of the Great Xia Dynasty together with the Du family and the Yang family, and these three families can produce many people, but among them, only the Guo family has been a military general for generations, and it is also the most restless of the three families.

Fifteen years ago, in the war, the official family and the young prince fled from Xiangyang City in a hurry, and there was no news for a while, just when everyone thought that the official family and the prince had encountered an accident, they rushed to Jianzhou as a base camp for resisting the enemy at that time, and everyone learned that the official family and the prince did almost not come back, thanks to the current Nanping waiting to rescue.

After the original Guo commander returned from the official family, he kept silent about letting King Teng succeed to the throne, and took his generals to bow three times and knock nine times to welcome the official family back to the court, and immediately married a concubine of the Guo family to Nanping Hou, who had just died at that time, to fill the house, looking grateful to him.

Three years ago, Commander Guo accidentally fell off his horse and was injured, and the official family immediately took advantage of the time when he was recuperating from his injuries at home, and on the grounds that Commander Guo was too old to work excessively, he was removed from his post as the commander of the Ma Military Division and transferred him to the position of Prime Minister Zuo.

On the surface, he gave this old minister enough face, but who doesn't know that the left and right prime ministers in the court, the right is the main one, the left is the deputy, and more importantly, the prime minister no longer has the right to command the army.

However, Prime Minister Guo Zuo has served as the commander of the Ma Military Division for so many years, and his influence in the army is still not to be underestimated, and he took advantage of the war to promote many generals and cronies, until now, no one knows how much power he still has in his hands, and even the official family has never dared to underestimate this courtier who seems to be loyal to him.

Thinking of this, Xiao Chuhan's face sank a little, and he took a deep breath and said: "In addition to Prime Minister Guo Zuo, there is also Pang Deli, the prince of Pingjin County, who is now in charge of the infantry military division, in order to balance the Guo family, the official family let Pang Guifei give birth to the eighth prince, although the eighth prince is only eight years old now, but with the prince in hand, how dare you say that the Pang family has no idea about that position?"

The year before last, the crown prince was attacked at the birthday banquet, and the weapon in the assassin's hand came from the Divine Guard Army under the command of the Infantry Military Division, although after the incident, the Pingjin County Duke immediately disposed of the commander in charge of the battalion in charge of the lost weapon, and there is no evidence to prove that this matter is related to the Pingjin County Prince, but who knows the hidden mystery behind this matter?

Chu Rui, it's too dangerous to be the commander of this prince's guards, you are still too young, I don't agree with this matter! When my father and mother found out, they would have objected!

If you really want to support the crown prince, the same is true for entering the palace. ”

After all, the crown prince is the future official family, and the palace front division exists for the official family.

Xiao Churui has been listening patiently, and at this time, he supported his jaw with one hand, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly: "What the eldest brother said, the younger brother knows, this matter was discussed between me and His Royal Highness the Prince, and the eldest brother doesn't have to worry too much." ”

Xiao Chuhan was angry and anxious, glaring at his younger brother and saying, "Chu Rui, do you really not know the danger or are you pretending to be stupid?" Besides, even if the prince plays it himself, the official family may not agree to this matter! ”

Xiao Churui shook his head, "The official family will agree." ”

said, with a faint smile, "Behind me, aren't there still you and my father?" ”

Xiao Chuhan was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood, his father is now the commander of the front division of the palace, and he also serves as the deputy commander of the Japanese army under the command of the front division of the palace, the prince is the only prince under the queen's knees, and he is the successor chosen by the official family.

And this decision was made by the official family, and their Xiao family, except for Chu Rui, was passively involved in this matter, so the information revealed in it was actually the official family's personal meaning.

If the official agrees to this matter, it means that he is beginning to stand up for the prince!

As soon as he figured this out, Xiao Chuhan suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, not that he had any opinions on the official family's approach, but in this way, Chu Rui's situation would only be more dangerous!

He was so anxious that he bent over, propped his hands on the couch, looked at Xiao Churui fixedly, and said: "No, Chu Rui, even if the official family agrees, you must also refuse this matter, this is not a responsibility you can bear at present, you ......"

Xiao Churui sighed secretly and interrupted Xiao Chuhan: "Big brother, are you too unconfident in your younger brother?" ”

Xiao Chuhan simply wanted to stuff this younger brother who looked at Jiao'er Langdang back into his mother's belly and regenerate it!

No matter how much he believed him, he couldn't have thought that he was only twenty-one years old and had no foundation in the imperial court to be qualified for this position!

Xiao Churui didn't say anything, only took out a palm-sized jade from his sleeve pocket, the jade was snow-white, the edges were carved into auspicious cloud patterns, and in the middle was a swallow with wings spread and flying high.

Xiao Chuhan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously took this piece of jade, only to feel that the tentacles were warm, there was no doubt that it was a piece of high-grade jade, but what did Chu Rui mean by suddenly giving him such a piece of jade?

Suddenly, his eyes widened, and the looming words on the token gave him an incredible idea, and he quickly held the token up to the candlelight to take a look, only to see that the vivid swallow on the token slowly changed, and finally, it evolved into the three words "Feiyan Pavilion".

His hand trembled slightly, and he almost couldn't grasp the token in his hand.

Feiyan Pavilion is a mysterious force that has emerged in the rivers and lakes in recent years, with a strong intelligence network, specializing in selling intelligence for a living, and occasionally taking assassination missions, it is said that the people targeted by Feiyan Pavilion will not escape death no matter how strong their martial arts are, how tightly defended they are.

Because, Feiyan Pavilion also has the most powerful secret guard in the world, no one can say clearly how many people there are in this organization, and who is the one who established Feiyan Pavilion.

The ancestor is above, could it be that this bastard brother of his family has been messing around every day all these years, and in the end, he actually made a Feiyan Pavilion?!

He looked at Xiao Churui in disbelief, "Chu Rui, this ......"

Xiao Churui propped his cheeks with one hand and raised his lips and smiled, "Although Feiyan Pavilion has just started and is not yet in the climate, it is always possible to save my brother's life, so I should rest assured that my eldest brother should be relieved now?" ”

Xiao Chuhan: "......"

Your so-called unsuccessful climate is already the No. 1 intelligence organization in the rivers and lakes, and it is rumored that it has the world's No. 1 secret guard? This stinky boy said this, did he want to make other people in the rivers and lakes ashamed of himself?

However, the rivers and lakes have not been able to confront the imperial court since ancient times, and no matter how big the forces in the rivers and lakes are placed before the court's deceit and thousands of troops, it is indeed unsuccessful.

Xiao Chuhan took a deep breath, only feeling that he had never really understood this younger brother, and he was shocked by the way he thought clearly.

He closed his eyes, suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his heart, sat back on the couch, returned the jade pendant to him, half a sound, and sighed: "Chu Rui, do you know that you are really willful sometimes?" ”

The corners of Xiao Churui's eyebrows jumped.

Here it is again, the worst thing about his eldest brother is probably that he is an overly responsible brother.
