"Your Majesty."

Around noon the next day, Liu Wu, the king of Liang, who woke up from a hangover, appeared in the main hall of the Xuan Room of Weiyang Palace as agreed;

said a bow in a calm tone, but only provoked the Son of Heaven Liu Qihe to stand up with a smile, take Liu Wu's arm, and walk towards the outside of the hall.

Walking on the palace road between the Xuan Room, the Greenhouse, and the Qingliang Palace, on the face of Liu Wu, the King of Liang, he couldn't help but bring a little thoughtfulness;

After a long time, when Liu Qi took the lead in stopping in front of a guardrail, Liu Wucai stepped forward with a slight hesitation and bowed his hand to Liu Qi.

"The younger brother entered the city yesterday, His Majesty did not hesitate to be the Son of Heaven, and went out of the city for twenty miles to welcome him.

"But Your Majesty shouldn't let your courtiers take the royal chariot, and you shouldn't risk a car crash to personally take the royal chariot for your courtiers~"

"Brother Chen, how can He De ······?"

"Eh~"

Without waiting for Liu Wu's voice to fall, he saw Liu Qi sighing with embarrassment, stepped forward with a chuckle, pulled Liu Wu's hand between his hands, and patted it gently.

"Between our brothers, don't talk about this;"

"What imperial chariots, what heavenly sons, monarchs and ministers, they are all false."

"Only the friendship between you and my brother is real."

"But ······"

"That's it."

As soon as Liu Wu was about to refute, he saw Liu Qi immediately interrupt, squeezed Liu Wu's hand lightly, and handed Liu Wu a sly gaze that only the two brothers could understand.

"Don't tell the queen mother about yesterday."

"As long as the two of us know it in our hearts, huh?"

Hearing this, Liu Wu's first reaction was to speak;

But when he saw Liu Qi's gaze looking at him and the undisguised intimacy in his tone, the last trace of reason left in Liu Wu's heart was finally replaced by a tacit understanding that belonged to the two brothers alone.

"Brother, I understand······

Feeling the ups and downs of Liu Wu's emotions and the mood that gradually relaxed, Liu Qi finally smiled and nodded;

Turning around, he looked at the palace rooms in Weiyang Palace with embarrassment, and the gaze of Liu Qi, the son of heaven, finally stayed in the north of the Xuanshu Palace.

"That place, do you remember the third child?"

While speaking, Liu Qi raised his hand slightly and pointed at the Jiaofang Hall not far away, but it also made Liu Wu's face tighten slightly.

"Brother remembers."

"Back then, the eldest brother was outside the Jiaofang Palace, and he had a dispute with the prince of Wu······"

gave a tactful reply, Liu Wu's face became a little restrained again, and without spitting out a word, Liu Wu did not forget to carefully look at Liu Qi's complexion change, for fear of annoying the emperor's brother;

Liu Qi didn't seem to notice the change in Liu Wu's expression, only let out another sigh leisurely, and a wry smile full of self-deprecation immediately hung on the corner of his mouth.

"Over the years, I've always been very taboo about people bringing it up;"

"But privately, I often reflect on my mistakes."

"——What I did back then, it was a little too ridiculous."

"Even if I was only a teenager at the time, I was still the crown prince;"

"Just for a game of chess, I picked up the chessboard and stoned the crown prince to death, which really disappointed my father's expectations······"

Hearing the self-blame in Liu Qi's tone, the worry on Liu Wu's face suddenly disappeared;

Almost without thinking, he hurriedly stepped forward and walked to Liu Qi's side.

"If you want me to say, the eldest brother doesn't have to blame himself too much."

"——The incident back then, it was clear that the prince of Wu was too arrogant, not to mention that he couldn't play chess, and he couldn't afford to lose!"

"Just the few pickled words he scolded the eldest brother, even if the eldest brother doesn't kill him, the younger brother will definitely draw his sword and pick him!"

But when he saw Liu Qi hearing this, there was still a wry smile full of guilt on his face, and he only looked deep, a little deeper, and there was a touch of imperceptible peace of mind.

Shaking his head and smiling bitterly for a moment, Liu Qizhong still turned sideways and looked around without a trace;

After making sure that there were no janitories and palace people who were too close around, and Liu Wu also saw his move of 'confirming the surroundings', Liu Qicai bowed down with a smile and put his head on the side of Liu Wu's ear.

"I didn't do it right back then;"

"But this incident is enough to show that those clan princes in the Kanto region, and you and my brothers, have never been of the same mind!"

"It's not a family after all;"

"No matter how gentle I am and how much I retreat, my heart is colder than ice, I can't cover it······"

Seeing Liu Qi say this sentence with a sad face, Liu Wu's brows only swelled with deep approval.

After a while, when Liu Qi pointed out the root cause of this situation, Liu Wu's face was only full of approval.

"I think that back then, Emperor Xiaohui was the heir, and Zhu Lu's relatives took advantage of the death of the Empress Dowager Lu and took the opportunity to seek to seize Sheji;"

"Fortunately, the minister is still loyal to Emperor Taizu Gao, so he didn't let the Lu family sit on my Han family."

"But the princes and ministers jointly punished Zhu Lu, and Liu Xiang, the king of Qi mourning, made great efforts."

"——After the rebellion was quelled, King Mourning failed to succeed to the unification, but his father was set up by hundreds of officials and ministers, and King Qi's family still holds a grudge against our family."

"King Qi's family is like this, and most of the other families are not very convinced by their father's succession."

After a few words, Liu Qi's face became a little serious, and his gaze at Liu Wu was even more solemn.

"In addition, back then, I was confused for a while, and I didn't kill the prince of Wu;"

"—And the old thief of King Wu took advantage of this incident to call himself sick and never made the pilgrimage to Chang'an again!"

"The first emperor did not criticize King Wu too harshly because of his losses, but gave King Wu a dove rod and issued an edict to amnesty King Wu so that he could not go to Chang'an."

"So far, Liu Bi, the king of Wu, has not come to Chang'an to see the Son of Heaven for more than ten years······"

In the end, the sigh on Liu Qi's face was long gone, and in its place, there was a daunting gloom.

"The third child should know what it means that Liu Bi is not in Chang'an······

Listening to Liu Qi's words, Liu Wu only nodded thoughtfully;

When he saw the gloom on Liu Qi's face, Liu Wu was even more empathetic, putting on an indignant look.

"Big brother don't have to worry."

"My brother has already heard about "Cutting Domains"!"

"As long as the eldest brother gives an order, let alone the 60,000 elite soldiers of the Liang Kingdom, even the younger brother will inevitably take the lead and cut off Liu Bi's head for the eldest brother!"

Liu Wu's undescriptive statement made Liu Qi's face immediately warm, and he nodded with a smile full of relief.

But after hearing the words "Cutting the Domain", Liu Qi's face was slightly stagnant, and then he pretended to shake his head casually and smiled, and turned his head to the side again.

"The third child has just arrived in Chang'an, and he is not in a hurry to talk about this;"

"In recent days, the third child has been accompanying his mother well, and then he will have a good time playing in Chang'an."

"As for King Wu's business······

"Hey!"

"We two brothers, there is a chance to talk in detail."
