Chu Tingchuan heard Chu Qingning's mocking tone, but he was not annoyed or angry, he just chuckled demonically, pulled his clothes, let the wide clothes cover his wrists, and then said, "Second Emperor Brother is sharp-eyed, can you find it here?" It seems that you really care about my fifth brother. ”

Chu Qingning heard Chu Tingchuan say this, secretly snorted coldly, glanced at Chu Tingchuan, but replied with a smile, "As an elder brother, how can I not care more about the fifth brother?" Isn't it inconvenient for brothers and friends to say this? Don't say that the second brother asks more, how can the fifth brother rise up this kind of play again? If it is known to others that the five princes are treated like this, how can they maintain the royal face? ”

Chu Tingchuan smiled loudly, as if he didn't think much of Chu Qingning's words, and then saw him shake his head lightly, and slowly replied, "This is my personal matter, why should the second emperor brother be involved in any royal face?" If the second emperor brother wants to say that the fifth brother is not of good character, then he is open and said, I don't mind anything. ”

When Chu Tingchuan said this, he felt that although he was romantic, he was also as frank as a gentleman. Since it is an existing matter, he will not admit it, but with him alone involving the royal face, this has always been Chu Qingning's forte. That's why Chu Tingchuan deliberately said such a thing.

Chu Qingning seemed to be dissatisfied, but he still replied with a kind smile, "Fifth brother, what are these words?" How could the second brother say that about you? Is this how you see your second brother? "Although Chu Qingning and Chu Tingchuan were not born to the same mother, the similarities between the brothers can still be seen between the eyebrows, but Chu Tingchuan is a demon, and this Chu Qingning is a bit heroic.

"The second emperor brother is too careful, I don't have this metaphor." Chu Tingchuan was perfunctory in his words, he was not interested in entanglement with Chu Qingning on this issue. On the surface, although they are still brothers, friends and brothers, they know better than anyone else in their hearts that the other party looks at them unpleasantly and thinks that the Fa wants to frame each other.

In fact, Chu Tingchuan didn't resist Chu Qingning so much, but Chu Qingning had been targeting him since before. He has encountered many things, and he knows who did it. If it weren't for this Chu Qingning always forcing him to resist like this, how could he have any thoughts about Chu Qingning?

"Second Emperor Brother, Fifth Emperor Brother." Chu Xuhua didn't know when he appeared behind the two of them, silently. Suddenly, such a greeting made Chu Qingning slightly startled, and Chu Tingchuan obviously knew that Chu Xuhua was behind him, so he responded with a chuckle, "It's really a coincidence today, I actually ran into the imperial brothers one after another." ”

"There's nothing wrong with this, my brothers and I may not have gone together to say hello to my father like this for a long time." After Chu Qingning came back to his senses, he still had the kind smile he pretended to have, and he bowed slightly towards Chu Xuhua. Chu Xuhua also responded with his chin in his head.

"The second emperor brother said very well, presumably my father will be in a happy mood because of this." Chu Tingchuan catered to Chu Qingning's words, that is, to keep talking. Chu Xuhua's few words are no longer rumors in the palace, so it is normal that he did not talk to him.

It's just that between Chu Xuhua and Chu Tingchuan, after their eyes are intertwined, they will each understand the meaning contained in each other's eyes. In this way, they can be regarded as real siblings. But with a single look, you can understand what the other party means. It is not an exaggeration to say that Chu Xuhua is Chu Tingchuan's confidant.

Because Chu Qingning was still there, Chu Tingchuan and Chu Xuhua didn't say much, but they still pretended to be careless and gossiped. From time to time, Chu Tingchuan would laugh loudly, but Chu Xuhua just had a shallow smile on the corner of his lips.

"The royal brothers don't know what they're talking about, but they're so happy, why don't you join me too?" Chu Changge heard Chu Tingchuan's hearty laughter from a distance, and couldn't help but walk over and smile at his imperial brothers.

I saw the person in front of him, with a bit of femininity between his eyebrows, and his eyes were gentle like water, as if he could melt the 10,000-year-old glacier. His eyebrows and eyes are picturesque, maybe he is more like his mother to be so handsome. But I still faintly see from the tips of my eyes that I am similar to several brothers. is the same father, and there will naturally be similarities.

"His Royal Highness the Prince." When the three of them saw Chu Changge, they all saluted Chu Changge, made a gesture, and called. Chu Changge's expression was always soft, he waved his hand lightly, and said, "There is no one else around, why should your brother be so polite?" ”

In this way, in the state of Chu, the four more accomplished princes met together by chance for a while. This is a rare picture in the palace. Although the faces of the four princes are similar, they are each handsome.

Prince Chu Changge is like a white peony, although it is graceful and luxurious, it is a plain white gentleness, which makes people feel close; Chu Qingning is like the moon season, although it is bright, it has spikes, which makes people awe-inspired; Chu Tingchuan is like a poppy, so enchanting that if you are deeply immersed in it, it will be difficult to extricate yourself; Chu Xuhua is like the proud plum in the cold snow, out of the dust and independent in the world.

To say that these four brothers stand together, it is like a beautiful painting, and people are reluctant to take their eyes off it, just want to be so deeply engraved in their minds. Even how sunny the day is, it can't be compared.

"Today is just in time, and I was able to meet a few younger brothers." Chu Changge spoke softly, with a soft smile on the corner of his lips, and said. Chu Tingchuan also smiled and replied, "Maybe today is a good day and an auspicious day to have such a coincidence." ”

"That's true." Chu Changge replied slowly, and then asked suspiciously, "What are the younger brothers talking about, and they are so happy?" "It's nothing, it's just a little bit of an interesting thing I heard from outside." Chu Qingning replied in a slightly respectful tone to Chu Changge's question.

When Chu Changge heard this, he replied, "I see, but as the crown prince, he is not as free and unfettered as his younger brothers." ”

For a while, Chu Qingning and Chu Tingchuan didn't answer. Chu Xuhua, who was originally silent, picked up at this time, which could be regarded as appeasing Chu Changge, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is learning how to govern the world in the East Palace for the sake of the common people, such idle things, the seventh brother thinks, it is okay not to know." It's a vulgar thing, and it's just a momentary pleasure. ”

Chu Changge pursed his lips and smiled, still as gentle as water, as if he didn't realize that what he said touched the extremely uncomfortable bottom line in the hearts of others. I just heard him say, "What the Seventh Emperor Brother said is not unreasonable. ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't have to think about it too much, if his father listens to it, I'm afraid he will be blamed for being inattentive." The corners of Chu Tingchuan's lips hooked up a bewitching smile, and he said slowly. Chu Xuhua glanced at Chu Tingchuan indifferently, and Chu Tingchuan also understood.

"According to the rules, His Royal Highness should go to his father to greet the emperor first, and the ministers and brothers will wait outside first." Chu Tingchuan waved towards Chu Changge and said. After Chu Tingchuan's reminder, Chu Changge reacted, and he didn't know when he had arrived at his father's bedroom. Moreover, according to the rules, it is indeed the prince who should go to ask for peace first.

After chatting with them for a few more words, Chu Changge turned around and walked towards the emperor's bedroom.

The remaining three waited outside the dormitory, waiting for Chu Changge to say goodbye before they went in together to greet the emperor.

After greeting each other, they went back to their own houses. It's just that Chu Xuhua turned back on the way and went to Chu Tingchuan's mansion. Although Chu Tingchuan and Chu Xuhua have a particularly good relationship, they don't plan to make this kind of close friendship too obvious. Often with a glance, they know what to do next.

Chu Tingchuan was walking casually with Chu Xuhua in the mansion, and there was no special destination, as if he was simply distracted. It's just a conversation between the two of them, only the two of them know.

"Seventh brother, what eyebrows can you find?" Chu Tingchuan asked Chu Xuhua directly. I saw Chu Xuhua shaking his head slightly, and said, "That father of Mo Liang is not too outstanding in the court, and he is also timid and afraid, and he has not found any clues. Moreover, there is no very close relationship between him and those people in the court. ”

"So." Chu Tingchuan responded, only to hear Chu Xuhua continue, "Even so, the imperial brother can't take Mo Liang lightly. Please allow me to go back and examine it again, and I may see what is missing. ”

"Last time, I said that you were too worried, are you a fool who makes you so uneasy?" A bewitching smile appeared on Chu Tingchuan's lips and said slowly. Chu Xuhua was speechless by him again, and he didn't know how to answer.

"It's not unreasonable for the seventh brother to be worried." Chu Xuhua sorted out his thoughts and said slowly. Chu Tingchuan raised his eyebrows lightly, and asked, "How do you say this?" "If Mo Liang is really sent by others, then this person must have figured out the character of the imperial brother." Chu Xuhua looked serious and replied.

"Seventh Brother wants to say that Mo Liang is mediocre, and for anyone, I won't choose her. But I just chose her. If all this is not accidental, then it is a very well-thought-out game? When Chu Tingchuan heard Chu Xuhua's words, his first reaction was this. If this is assumed, then Mo Liang is extremely dangerous.

"Exactly. Therefore, the seventh brother's worries are not groundless. It's better for the royal brother to be cautious, even if the imperial brother doesn't have any thoughts, it doesn't mean that others will think so. Chu Xuhua said slowly. To say that among the many brothers, he is the closest to Chu Tingchuan, and at the same time, he is also the most trusted person by Chu Tingchuan.

"It's okay, don't worry too much about the seventh brother, I have my own measure. If I had fallen into the trap so easily, I wouldn't have survived so far. Chu Tingchuan still had a casual and lazy face, but his eyes were deep and bottomless.
