The sound of heavy footsteps came from far and near, and the leather boots stepped on the bluestone ground, each sound seemed to be trampling on the emperor's chest.

In the palace, only the guards will wear such boots, whether it is Jinyiwei or Jin Wuwei, these people are the Queen Mother's people, the Queen Mother's, not his.

It's ridiculous, he sat on that dragon chair for more than ten years, but in the end he was still a puppet.

When his father was there, he often said that he was not as good as the imperial brother who died young, and even said it in front of his younger brother and in front of the ministers. The imperial brother was cultivated as a prince from the day he was born, and he was just a substitute for the imperial brother after his death. After the death of the imperial brother, he was forcibly pulled in front of his father and the emperor, and in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, hehe, how can a person who has been neglected for many years be compared with the prince who has been carefully cultivated since childhood?

But no one thinks so, they just think that he is not as good as the crown prince. But this dynasty has a clear distinction between the young and the old, as long as he is alive, it will not be the turn of others to sit on this dragon chair.

That year, the Duke of Min Guo brought his son Zhanchen and his second son Zhanyu to the capital, at that time Zhanchen had already married, and Zhanyu came to see his father, and his father wanted to give Fangyi to Zhanyu.

He was very curious about the Zhan family brothers, and when he heard that they had all been on the battlefield, he couldn't imagine how the Duke of Min would let his teenage son go to the battlefield. And he heard from the people in the East Palace that Zhan Chen got married at the age of thirteen, and the Zhan family just wanted to hold their grandson as soon as possible and leave a blood vein for the Zhan family as soon as possible.

He was even more curious, that day his father and the emperor invited the Zhan family father and son to a banquet in Yonghe Palace, let him sit with him, Yonghe Palace raised two deer, after the banquet he saw that the Zhan brothers went to the deer garden, he quietly followed.

He heard Zhan Yu say, "I heard that Prince Xiang is a figure like Zhilan Yushu, but unfortunately I can't see it at once. The current crown prince ......"

Zhan Yu didn't continue, obviously afraid that the wall would have ears.

Prince Xiang is the heir of the emperor's brother, and his father broke the routine to give such an auspicious name to a dead man.

Although Zhan Yu didn't finish speaking, he also knew what Zhan Yu wanted to say, he had heard this kind of thing many times, those people didn't take him seriously at all, and the words spoken in his back could reach his ears.

Zhan Chen said: "The Son of Heaven has four sons-in-law, I heard that the third prince is smart and clever, and he has the style of the auspicious prince, and the Son of Heaven loves him very much." ”

At that time, Zhanyu was still naïve, he thought about it sideways, and asked curiously: "Then if the prince is also like Prince Xiang, the Son of Heaven will crown the third prince as the crown prince." ”

Speaking of this, Zhanyu grabbed his hair and continued: "No, although the prince is thin, he looks healthy and will not die early." ”

Zhan Chen patted his younger brother's head and said, "Your head is an elm pimple, do you have to be sick to die?" Have you forgotten how Zhang Dabao died? ”

Zhan Yu seemed to be startled, shrunk his neck, stuck out his tongue, and didn't dare to speak anymore.

He hid behind a small rockery and listened to the Zhan brothers, and he also wanted to know who Zhang Dabao was and how he died.

At this time, a palace man brought fodder over, and the Zhan brothers cheered to feed the deer, taking advantage of this time, he quietly slipped out of the deer room, and the attendants were looking for him, and he returned to the hall as if he was nothing, and no one knew that he had overheard the Zhan brothers talking.

After returning to the East Palace, he immediately asked someone who Zhang Dabao was.

He soon knew that Zhang Dabao was the most famous pirate in Fujian, Zhejiang, and that the Duke of Min had encircled and suppressed him for many years, but he had not been able to catch Zhang Dabao, but in the end Zhang Dabao did not fold in the hands of the Duke of Min, but was killed by his younger brother Zhang Erbao.

Zhang Dabao's younger brother Zhang Erbao poisoned Zhang Dabao, made himself a pirate leader, and exterminated all the people who supported Zhang Dabao.

When he learned of this, he slumped into his chair and sat in a daze for half an hour.

Half an hour later, he wept.

He finally understood what Zhan meant.

It's not just illness that can make a person die, if you really want him to die, you can poison him, you can assassinate him.

He was only twelve years old that year, he was very scared, his father didn't like him, his father liked the third child, would that make people poison him, and then let the third child be the prince?

There is also the third child, he once saw it with his own eyes, the third child shot an arrow to kill a golden chicken, for which his father also rewarded the third child with the bow and arrow he used when he was young.

Although the third child is only ten years old, his archery skills are very good, and the martial arts master said that he is a martial arts wizard.

Will the third child use the bow and arrow rewarded by his father to shoot him, the imperial brother, with one arrow?

He didn't know what to do, and he didn't know who to talk to. The people in the East Palace were all the people of the father and the queen mother, and if they knew that he was worried about this, they would definitely not spare him.

From that day on, he was very afraid, he was afraid that he would die early like the royal brother, he did not dare to eat, he did not dare to drink, he did not even dare to go out of his bedroom.

Soon he fell ill, and that night he heard someone chanting the scriptures, and the attendants told him that it was the queen mother and several concubines who were chanting for him.

At that moment, his heart was clear, this was a feeling he had never felt before, he was no longer afraid, he was no longer afraid, he felt that he was flying, flying to a magical place, where there was a Bodhi tree, there was the light of the Buddha shining, and his heart was as peaceful as when he was born.

He had a good night's sleep, and the next day the doctors came to see him again and found him well.

From that day on, he began to study Buddhism, and his father and mother all worshiped Buddha, for which he praised him very much, and for the first time in his life, he saw an appreciative look in his father's eyes.

But he had been to many monasteries and listened to many monks, but he no longer had the feeling of being in the East Palace that night.

He was very distressed about this, he wanted to give up for a long time, he didn't want to worship the Buddha anymore, but he didn't dare to say it, he was afraid that his father would be angry.

Fortunately, a few years later, his father's mountain collapsed, and he finally ascended to the throne.

After he ascended the throne, King Rong went to Shaanxi to take up the domain, and he asked people to send several titles, in which he saw the word "Qin".

He smiled, this title above 10,000 people under one person is very suitable for King Rong, suitable for his third brother, the third brother who is the most favored by his father, and the third prince who has the same intelligence as Prince Xiang.

Shaanxi belonged to Qin in ancient times, and it is very suitable to give this Qin character to King Rong.

With this title, the third child has become the target of public criticism, and everyone will stare at the third child to see when he will become a rebel and thief!

Why can the third child have this word, and why can he become the head of the prince?

It's not just the old Siqing King who will be angry, but even his imperial uncles will be angry.

Since the founding of this dynasty, there has only been one King of Qin, and that is his imperial grandfather, Emperor Shenzong!
