Chapter 035: With Uncle Cousin here, everything is as it was

Hearing Liu Sheng's insincere words, "Why don't you forget it?" Dou Ying and Liu Pengzu on the side also showed a playful smile.

Especially Dou Ying, looking at Liu Sheng, his eyes were full of banter.

"——Gongzi Sheng, who is unparalleled in benevolence and filial piety, when did he care about the life and death of others?"

"Especially in matters related to Jia Ji, there is no one you kid dare not provoke, no one dares to commit!"

"Hey!"

"Say no, but the little hands are really tight······"

Teasing with a smile, Dou Ying couldn't help lowering his head, looked at the sleeves that were clenched by Liu Sheng, and raised his eyebrows slightly;

Liu Sheng smiled awkwardly, and moved his body forward without changing his face, and the corners of his clothes were tightened.

"Nephew, isn't it, there's really no way······

"If my cousin really doesn't want to help, then my nephew won't dare to force ·········."

Listening to Liu Sheng's tea-filled words, but his hands were still tightly clutching his sleeves, Dou Ying smiled and shook his head.

"You kid······"

The uncle and nephew joked and laughed for a while, and when Liu Sheng let go of his hand with a hippie smile, Dou Ying finally turned pale again.

"Xiao Jiu;"

"Uncle asks you."

"-Apprentice Prime Minister, is it Xiao Jiu's idea?"

"Xiao Jiu, do you have the intention to win the heir?!"

A question without warning suddenly made the atmosphere in the pavilion cold, and Liu Pengzu on the side pursed his lips and took a deep breath.

In front of Dou Ying, Liu Sheng also smiled back on his face, thought about it seriously, and then looked at Dou Ying sincerely.

"Uncle Cousin."

"The imperial grandmother and cousin watched me grow up little by little in the palace; What kind of person I am, my grandmother and cousin, should be the people who know best in the world. ”

"If others have such doubts, then I can still understand human nature;"

"But if even my cousin thinks that I want to worship the prime minister as a teacher, and even has thoughts that I shouldn't have, then even if I jump into Weishui, I'm afraid I won't be able to wash away the infamy of 'seizing the heir'······"

Full of sincerity to express his thoughts, Liu Sheng looked into the depths of Dou Ying's gaze, his expression full of calmness.

For that position, Liu Sheng didn't dare to say that he was not interested;

But Liu Sheng knows what to fight for and what not to fight.

I also know that position, who can fight for it and who can't.

And as time goes by, as Liu Sheng gets older and his understanding of the Son of Heaven Liu Qi becomes more and more comprehensive, the instinctive desire for that position in Liu Sheng's heart is also disappearing visibly with the naked eye.

- Liu Sheng, I don't want to be like my father Liu Qi.

So when answering Dou Ying's question, Liu Sheng was only unspeakably frank for a while;

And this frank gaze, which was not mixed with the slightest hypocrisy, finally dispelled Dou Ying's previous doubts.

"So~"

"Are the rumors inside and outside the government and the opposition true?"

Leng Buding asked again, which made Liu Sheng stunned for a moment, but when he saw his brother Liu Pengzu on the side, he said 'um' to Dou Ying at the right time.

Looking at the eye contact between Liu Pengzu and Dou Ying, Liu Sheng would also be relieved, and immediately nodded with a fire on his face.

"At first, we thought it was the Zhidu incident that upset my father;"

"Later, I found out that it was because of "Cutting the Domain" that my father threw me to this old Anhou Mansion so that the prime minister could be busy."

"It's a pity that Cheng's attitude towards "Cutting Domains" is still very resolute."

"Father's abacus failed, not to mention, our two brothers worshiped the prime minister as a teacher, and they were hated by Li Ji again······"

Looking at the indescribable fire on Liu Sheng's face, as well as the visible anger with the naked eye, Dou Ying finally stopped hesitating.

"I see."

"On the contrary, His Majesty is worried about "Cutting the Domain", and Xiao Jiu bumped into His Majesty's gun because of the matter of General Zhonglang;"

"Your Majesty ordered Xiao Jiu to apprentice, and Jia Ji was worried that this matter would be misunderstood by Li Ji, so he asked Xiao Qi to also apprentice with him."

"But even so, Li Ji still misunderstood this matter and held a grudge against your mother and son?"

Hearing this, Liu Pengzu and Liu Sheng looked at each other for a moment, and then nodded to Dou Yingshen.

"We are worried that in the future, after our two brothers become kings, the mother who stays in the palace will be bullied by Li Ji."

"But because of her eldest brother, Li Ji is really a little 'in the limelight'."

"That's why I asked the prime minister to help my two brothers come up with advice and resolve the resentment in Kurihime's heart;"

"It's just that I didn't expect the prime minister to invite it, but it was actually my cousin······"

Hearing this, Dou Ying only nodded again, lowered his head and thought for a moment, then stood up with a relaxed smile.

"Since that's the case, there's not much to say."

"From now on, you two brothers, as if this incident never happened;"

"What was in the past, what will happen in the future, it's just business as usual."

Hearing this, the two brothers were only stunned together, and when they saw Dou Ying get up from their seats, they couldn't help but be anxious!

"Uncle Cousin!"

Hurriedly stood up, taking advantage of Dou Ying's strength before he could stand firmly, he grabbed Dou Ying's sleeve tightly again, Liu Sheng looked at Dou Ying's gaze, and was full of shock.

"Uncle Cousin, this is, don't help us?!"

saw Dou Ying smiling bitterly and shaking his head, and looked down at the sleeves that were grabbed by Liu Sheng again;

Seeing that Liu Sheng didn't mean to let go at all, Dou Ying sighed.

"Before inviting me to come, did the prime minister say: The only thing that Li Ji doesn't dare to be sloppy is the throne of the emperor's eldest son?"

When the two brothers nodded their heads in unison, Dou Ying smiled again, shook his arms lightly, and shook his sleeves out of Liu Sheng's hands.

"So, you just need to know: Uncle Cousin, I can remind Li Ji 'don't joke about the throne of the emperor's eldest son', and that's it."

"You don't need to know much about anything else."

"Moreover, now that the Empress Dowager is still alive, Empress Bo will also have to 'live' in Jiaofang Hall for a while."

"At this juncture, the two of you can't be too close to Li Ji, otherwise you will be slapping the Queen Mother and Queen Bo in the face."

With a relaxed expression, Dou Ying finally smiled again: "Listen to my cousin." ”

"Just as if none of this happened, study under the prime minister's door in a down-to-earth manner;"

"When all the dust settles, according to Your Majesty's will, peace of mind will be."

"Li Ji's side, there is a cousin here, and there is no way to make a mistake."

Dropping such a sentence, Dou Ying turned around with a smile, confidently put his hands behind his back, and walked in the direction of the gate of the Hou Mansion.

After Dou Ying left, Liu Sheng turned his head a little puzzled, but saw his brother Liu Pengzu smiling and looking meaningfully in the direction of Dou Ying's departure.

"So ······ it"

"The Prince·········
