"I'm fourteen years old, huh?"

"—If this is in an ordinary people's house, it is the age when it is time to marry a wife and have children!"

"Didn't you just say a dancing girl······

"It's so ruthless to start ······"

walked out of the Xuanshu Hall together, looked at his brother Liu Pengzu beside him, rubbed the back of his head, and said 'bad words' about his mother Mrs. Jia behind his back, Liu Sheng couldn't help but laugh.

Naturally, he stretched out his hand, patted his brother on the shoulder, and hugged him again.

"Mother, after all, is a woman;"

"And it's an elder."

"Even if my brother wants to speak, he has to carry his mother on his back?"

"How can a child talk about these things in front of his mother and his elders?"

With a helpless smile, reminding Liu Pengzu a little, Liu Sheng chuckled and withdrew his hand, put his hands behind his back, lowered his head, and walked forward with a smile.

Previously, on the way back to Guangming Hall on the way back to Guangming Palace, Liu Sheng thought a lot.

Liu Sheng thought that in the future, his eldest brother Liu Rong would enter Chang'an, and if he asked, 'Didn't you say, don't you want to be the prince?' ''How did my mother die?'' How to answer such words;

Thinking that in the future, Liu Fei, the fifth brother who has always been close to him, will become more and more alienated from himself because of his identity as the prince.

- If he is estranged, Liu Sheng will be sad;

But if he is not alienated, Liu Sheng doesn't know how to deal with himself······

There are also mothers Mrs. Jia, mother-in-law Empress Bo, and grandmother Empress Dowager Dou······

On the way back to Guangming Palace, Liu Sheng thought about almost everything: after such a earth-shaking change in identity, what kind of face should he face these people.

And what Liu Sheng thinks about the most is his half-brother - Liu Pengzu······

"Alas~"

"-If the father and the emperor let the eldest brother be the crown prince;"

"I can settle down, be a good brother to the prince, and then help the eldest brother sit in the storage position."

"It's good to pour ······ now"

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Liu Sheng still lowered his head, put his hands behind his back, and kicked the stones under his feet one by one at will.

But what Liu Sheng didn't know was that his heartfelt and subconscious actions were in Liu Pengzu's view, but they were the Son of Heaven······

"Father's ······"

"Father really said that among the nine of us brothers, I am the most like my father?"

was full of surprise, only to provoke Liu Sheng to turn his head sideways with a smile and nod slightly to Liu Pengzu.

But after Liu Sheng nodded, Liu Pengzu continued to look Liu Sheng up and down with a more eccentric look.

It's as if to say: Me?

Am I a father?

Father, did you treat you as a son?

is still the emperor, and like the emperor's grandmother, his eyes are not good???

Seeing Liu Pengzu's surprise, Liu Sheng still looked smiling;

He lowered his head again, still carrying his hands behind his back, and continued to kick the stones boringly.

It's just that in the tone, there is a little bit of confusion and confusion······

"My father said that my brother, like my father, is a ruthless and vicious person."

"-He also said that if his brother becomes the crown prince, in the future, he will definitely become an emperor like his father."

said indifferently, but Liu Pengzu was slightly stunned;

But seeing Liu Sheng, he continued to take care of himself: "Father said that when my brother comes and becomes the king of Zhao, every year, the body of a Zhao prime minister will be carried out of Handan City. ”

"—and these people must be 'guilty of deserving it, and they must die';"

"Father, I will never be able to grasp my brother's handle."

"Even if you know that this is what your brother is doing in secret, my father can't find evidence······"

As he spoke, Liu Sheng's tone gradually took on a little hesitation;

It was Liu Pengzu, who heard the latter sentence, but nodded thoughtfully.

"Secretly brutalizing the king, and making people unable to grasp the handle······"

"Hmmm······"

"It's like, it does;"

"—like I could have done it."

The words that were full of indifference made Liu Sheng raise his head in disbelief when he heard his footsteps;

The two brothers looked at each other for a moment, and after a moment, they shook their heads and smiled at the same time······

"Then Ah Sheng, will you be worried?"

"I will worry that in the future, I will become a ruthless and vicious person as my father said;"

"—Even every year, can you kill a person who is a king, but people can't grasp the handle?"

The two brothers continued to walk forward, and before they knew it, they had turned into two trumpets of Tianzi Qi, walking towards the palace gate with the same rhythm, the same posture, and the same pace.

But neither brother noticed this.

Hearing that his elder brother Liu Pengzu asked easily, Liu Sheng thought for a moment, then shook his head with a smile.

"It's not worrying."

"Because I know that no matter what kind of person my brother becomes, he will still be my brother."

"I will still be my brother's most beloved and dearest, and my only brother."

"Even if my brother really becomes a heinous and vicious person in the future, I will never worry about my brother and it will be bad for me."

"Hey ······"

"—I don't even believe that my brother forgets to give me a piece of ······ when he eats meat."

laughed and ridiculed, which also provoked Liu Pengzu to bow his head and laugh, and his face was only a little more relaxed.

Liu Sheng also laughed and exhaled a long breath, then turned his head slightly, and said with a slight self-deprecation as he continued to walk forward: "It's just ······"

"Hmm~~~"

"It's just that I really don't want to believe that my brother will become like that in the future."

"-I can't imagine that my brother, who grew up with me since childhood, would become such a ······"

"Uh······"

"Strange, unfamiliar?"

Hearing this, Liu Pengzu finally understood what his stupid brother was thinking.

He shook his head nonchalantly, raised his hand again, put his arm around Liu Sheng, smiled, and continued to walk forward.

"I don't believe I'm going to be like that."

"But Ah Sheng is right;

"——What kind of person I have become, I will still be Ah Sheng's brother after all."

"As an elder brother, there is no reason to cause trouble and trouble for younger brother."

"Don't worry!"

"As an elder brother, no matter how unbearable I am, I will never embarrass my younger brother."

"Even if you can't help Ah Sheng, at least, you have to give Ah Sheng less trouble;"

"Lest outsiders say: The brother of the prince is a drag oil bottle like Li Ji?"

Hearing Liu Pengzu's words, Liu Sheng finally smiled and nodded, throwing aside all the awkwardness and hesitation in his heart.

He also raised his hand and put his arm on his brother's shoulder, and the two brothers laughed and played, hooked their shoulders and walked in the direction of the palace gate.

In the Weiyang Palace, the hearty laughter of the two brothers and the ridiculous 'whispering' sounded from time to time······

"Eh, Ah Sheng;"

"Father, do you really say that I am like a father?"

"—yes;"

"—I say it looks like it!"

"Uh·····"

"—How?"

"Father, even if it's a curse······"

"You can't scold it so badly, can you?"

"-Hi~"

"-Who's to say it's not~"

···

···

"Eh, what about the dancing girl?"

"-This~ Where can I find you?"

"Hi~"

"Aunt Guantao, aren't there a lot of them······"

"-You're crazy and spicy?!"

"—That's all my father'······"

"Okay, okay, I don't want it~"

"Don't you want it······"

···

···

······

A moment later, Changle Palace.

Almost a second ago, Liu Sheng was still bowing to the Empress Dowager Dou;

In the next second, Liu Sheng was like a civet cat, pillowing the legs of the Empress Dowager Dou, with his back to the Empress Dowager Dou, and lying down beside the Empress Dowager Dou.

And the Empress Dowager Dou also lowered her head with pity, gently stroking Liu Sheng's head;

- It's as if lying on his lap is not a favorite grandson, but a real tanuki slave······

"Xiao Jiu, are you scared?"

"-Yesterday, I still want to be the king of Zhongshan;"

"Today, I learned that I am going to become the crown prince······"

"Whoever you are, you'll be scared to sleep······"

The gentle and kind tone of his grandmother's gentle, kind, and magical voice sounded in his ears, so that Liu Sheng was reluctant to open his eyes;

just lay quietly on the lap of the Empress Dowager Dou, enjoying this rare quiet.

I didn't forget to answer.

"I can't say I'm scared;

"It's just a little ······"

"Hmmm······"

"Confused?"

After a lazy word, he saw Liu Sheng raise his head slightly, change to a more comfortable position, and lie down again.

"My father said that he wanted me to be the crown prince, but I didn't know what to say;"

"When I saw my mother, I didn't know what I should say or do."

"-I don't know if I should be happy because my mother is going to be a queen?"

"You should still comfort your mother and not be frightened by today's sudden changes······"

In the end, Liu Sheng's tone couldn't help but feel a little lonely.

After being silent for a while, he turned over slightly and lay down on the lap of the Empress Dowager Dou.

"And the elder brother;"

"Obviously older than me, the one who wants to be the prince is my young brother."

"——In order to make me the crown prince as the 'eldest son', my brother even has to pass under the queen's knees, and even, I can no longer be a mother's child······"

···

"And big brother;"

"I promised my eldest brother a long time ago that I would not think about what I shouldn't have, and I would try my best to help my eldest brother and sit on the throne of the prince."

"The eldest brother also promised: After my brother and I become kings, the eldest brother will take care of our mother for us and prevent Li Ji from bullying her mother."

"-As a result, now, the eldest brother has become the king of Linjiang, the grandson, but he is about to become the prince of the prince······"

"I didn't keep my promise to my eldest brother, I didn't have the face to see my eldest brother, but I couldn't save Kurihime's life······"

···

"And the fifth brother;"

"In the past, Fifth Brother and I were the best siblings."

"In the future, there will be an extra layer of 'monarch and minister' relationship······"

···

"And the teacher;"

"When the teacher was still there, he taught me and my brother that we must ······"

···

"And ······"

···

"And ······"

···

······

just sat quietly on the edge of the couch, smiled and lowered his head, looked at the tanuki lying on his lap, and expressed all his confusion;

Until the end, Empress Dowager Dou's dim and dilated eyes did not reveal even a trace of impatience.

It wasn't until Liu Sheng finished saying the last 'and' that Empress Dowager Dou gently stretched out her hand and covered Liu Sheng's brows, which had already been involuntarily twisted together;

Gently and slowly rubbing Liu Sheng's frowning brows, Empress Dowager Dou did not forget to show a relieved smile to Liu Sheng lying on her lap.

"Since childhood, Xiao Jiu is the most important friendship among your brothers;"

"What I value is also Xiao Jiuzhong's affection, careful thinking, and knowing filial piety to my mother and respect for my elders."

"Alas~~~"

"-If I change someone else, I want to be made the crown prince by the emperor, I, a blind old woman, I am afraid, and it is not so easy to agree."

"But when I learned that it was Xiao Jiu, no matter how much I did, I really couldn't have the idea of objecting······"

The more and more gentle tone also made Liu Sheng completely relaxed;

Hearing this, he raised his hand slightly, and gently pulled his grandmother's hand on his forehead to his chest.

"Grandmother Huang, don't you want to be Uncle Liang?"

asked softly, but the Empress Dowager Dou shook her head with sighs;

He froze for a moment, then raised his head and let out a long sigh.

"The third ······"

"The Third ······"

"I thought that they were all sons born to me, no matter how bad they were, they couldn't be any worse;"

"—Even if it's worse than the Emperor, at least, it's not worse than Rong."

"But now that I think about it, I was so stupid······"

Sighing, Empress Dowager Dou lowered her head again and smiled at the little raccoon slave on her lap.

"Tell me the truth."

"I'm confused, when I have to establish the king of Liang, you little raccoon slave, do you also want to persuade me to come?"

"In the end, why didn't you persuade you?"

was playing with the hand of the Empress Dowager Dou easily, and suddenly heard this question, Liu Sheng couldn't help but be stunned for a moment;

After a while, he smiled a little embarrassedly, raised the Empress Dowager Dou's hand slightly, and threw it on his face.

"Grandson, this is not, I'm afraid that the imperial grandmother will be angry······"

"If you persuade her, the imperial grandmother will not listen, and she will be angry again;"

"If you let the imperial grandmother again, I will no longer love my grandson~"

"-That grandson, isn't it worth the loss······"

was a little weak-hearted, mixed with a few laughing explanations, which only caused the Empress Dowager Dou to shake her head and laugh;

Gently raised his hand from Liu Sheng's face, pinched an orchid finger, and took a breath at the pinched middle finger······

Kiss!

A crisp brain fell on his head, but Liu Sheng smirked, and he couldn't see the slightest reaction to being beaten at all.

"You're clever~"

"-Little Slippery!"

Empress Dowager Dou pretended to be annoyed, and with a full of doting words, she provoked Liu Sheng to smirk again;

But he was gently patted on the stomach by the Empress Dowager Dou, and then got up with some doubts.

When Liu Sheng sat up, he saw that the Empress Dowager Dou would hold the leg hanging under the bed with one hand, and then turn around;

Just crossed his legs, sat opposite Liu Sheng, and between his eyebrows, he couldn't help but be a little serious.

"Grandmother asks you."

"-If the imperial grandmother asks you to marry Aunt Guantao's daughter: Gillian;"

"Would you like to?"

Seeing Empress Dowager Dou's rather solemn posture, Liu Sheng couldn't help but sit up straight.

Hearing this question, he couldn't help frowning slightly.

"How?"

"You, don't you want to marry Gillian?"

Seeing that Liu Sheng was slow to answer, Empress Dowager Dou couldn't help but be a little anxious;

saw Liu Sheng shaking his head suspiciously, and shrugged his shoulders a little irritably.

"It's not that I don't want to;"

"They all say that this is the life of the parents, and the words of the matchmaker."

"If the imperial grandmother wants to be the master of the grandson, and the imperial grandmother asks the grandson to marry, then the grandson should marry whomever the grandson wants."

"Just ······"

"-Just what?"

Before Liu Sheng's words fell, and before he even had time to take the initiative to stop talking, he saw that the Empress Dowager Dou suddenly moved and leaned her upper body forward slightly!

Seeing Empress Dowager Dou's posture, Liu Sheng had no choice but to sigh helplessly, and then said without concealment: "People in the palace say that my aunt's daughter, Gillian, is a little girl······

"My grandson is worried that if he really marries Gillian, in the future, he won't even be able to beat his wife, and he will make outsiders laugh again······"

was full of calm words, which only caused Empress Dowager Dou's body to stiffen.

I was stunned for twenty or thirty breaths, and then I leaned back and laughed on the couch as if I had heard some joke.

"Poof~~Ha~Ha~Ha~"

···

After a long time, Empress Dowager Dou stopped laughing, but she also covered her stomach with one hand, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with the other, and shook her head with a smile.

"Uh~"

"Coke ~ Kill me ~"

"I can't beat my wife·······"

"Puff~~Ha~Ha······"

Seeing that his grandmother was in a posture of 'I want to continue laughing', Liu Sheng couldn't help but darken his face a little;

Seeing that Empress Dowager Dou seemed to have surrendered, she hurriedly waved her hand and forced herself to calm down.

Straighten up, take a deep breath, and slowly exhale it.

Finally suppressed the burst of laughter, Empress Dowager Dou couldn't help but raise her head with a smile, and then leaned forward slightly.

"Gillian, I'm only five years old now~"

"-Five-year-old girl, what can you see?"

"At the age of five, she is a 'little woman', so when she grows up, won't she become a brute?"

"How can your aunt be able to give birth to such a little brute beast?"

Hearing this, Liu Sheng couldn't help frowning slightly, secretly thinking about it, and nodded thoughtfully.

"yes······"

"Five-year-old girl, no matter how rude, how can you be rude······"

When Liu Sheng was talking to himself, Empress Dowager Dou covered her mouth and snickered again, and finally calmed down her smile.

After a while, Wen Liu Sheng asked again, but the Empress Dowager Dou rewarded Liu Sheng with another brain meltdown.

"Hey!"

"Silly boy!"

"—Who told you to marry now?"

"Let's settle the family affairs first~"

"Wouldn't it be better to marry into your womb when you are old?"

···

"Good~"

"-I'll keep you by your side~"

"——Raise you a obedient ~ virtuous and gentle princess~"

"Then you little raccoon slave, how can you thank me?"

"Huh?"

···

···

······

Had dinner and was a little late~

Three hours later in the next chapter~
