It's night.

In general, in this day and age, there is a curfew at night, but this rule is also for other people, for those who have reached a certain height......

Just listen to it.

The Temple of Grace.

On the grave at night, Zhu Zhan Yan is estimated to be the first one, although it is an imperial mausoleum, but in the final analysis, it is still a cemetery, and it can't be said to be a grave just because it is the place where the dead emperor lived, right?

Zhu Zhanyan looked at his father kneeling in front of the spiritual throne and didn't know what to say.

The most difficult thing to face in this world may be this situation where you are obviously relatives, friends or even close siblings, but in the end you go to the opposite side.

Originally, Zhu Zhanyan didn't want his father to see his third uncle, because he knew that his father was fighting for the throne with the support of this third uncle at the earliest.

To put it mildly, my father's brain is not very good, and it goes without saying that he can't drift, and it is a bit difficult to turn.

Zhu Zhanyan was worried that his father would be confused again.

What's more, although his third uncle didn't have a good heart from the beginning, after all, he is a close sibling, and this kind of situation that should not be faced hurts a person's feelings and even spirit.

However, his father insisted on meeting his younger brother, who once supported him, but now has gone to the opposite side.

After all, he was his youngest brother, and he used to protect him desperately, just like the boss.

Sighing softly, Zhu Zhanyan turned around and took out a scroll of holy decrees from his sleeve pocket.

"I'll leave this to you."

Looking at his father standing at the door, Zhu Zhanyan could be said to be in turmoil.

"You are no longer the Han King you used to be, you should know that in fact, as long as you want to, that son can give you that position, even if you will be scolded by everyone in the world."

"Although I know that you know, as a son, I still want to remind you."

"You may not want to hurt others, but you should at least have the ability to hurt others, so that your kindness will be a choice, not a weak and helpless act."

"I know." Listening to his son's broken thoughts, Zhu Gaoxu nodded very flatly.

The world has never been fair, but in a way, the world is.

Because, when you get something, you usually lose something.

Looking at his father, Zhu Zhanyan sighed lightly and opened his mouth to speak, but he didn't say anything until the end, he could only watch his father bypass him and enter the Qi'en Palace.

Originally, multiple-choice questions were easy to do in No. 1 because he had already given you the options, and you would always have a choice whether it was right or wrong.

But Zhu found that most of the questions he encountered were not multiple-choice questions, but short-answer questions.

Not only are there no answers, but sometimes they don't even know the meaning of the question.

Looking up at the sky, Zhu Zhanyan walked down the steps and sat down under the Qi'en Gate.

Glancing back at the brightly lit Qi'en Palace, Zhu Zhanyan closed his eyes slightly.

"Would you like a drink?"

A voice suddenly sounded, Zhu Zhanyan didn't have any flustered emotions, and opened his eyes lightly.

"Your body, you can't drink."

"I can't drink it, but you can drink it, big brother." Zhu Zhantan sat down and put a pot of wine in front of his eldest brother.

"Big brother, you say, how will Dad choose?"

"There's nothing to say about this." Zhu Zhanyan shook his head slightly, picked up the wine jug and flicked the cork, and took a shallow sip.

"Dad's choice is Dad's choice, even if he wants to let go of the third uncle, it doesn't matter, but my choice is my choice."

"Tut-tut......" Zhu Zhantan looked up at the sky, but the sky was dark today.

You can't see the moon, you can't see the stars.

"How many brothers are we, only the eldest brother dares to treat your father like this, if it is replaced by me and Zhan Qi, even if it is Brother Zhan Qi, it will not work."

"Don't overthink it." Zhu Zhanyan took another sip of wine and patted his younger brother on the shoulder.

"Actually, my father is also a sensible person, just like me at the beginning, I knew that letting my cousin 'die of a violent illness' was the best ending, but I kept him."

"It's not just because I need time and manpower to get my cousin to 'die of a violent illness,' but also because I don't want to do that in my heart."

"Why?" Zhu Zhantan was stunned for a moment.

"It's not my brother I'm cruel, but eldest brother, you also know that things have come to this situation, and it is impossible to reconcile, we are in the same vein as our cousin, after all, there is a ...... in one side"

Zhu Zhantan's lips moved, but in the end, he still didn't speak.

People, it's so hypocritical, they know it, they understand it's inevitable, but they keep it secret.

"People, ......" Zhu Zhanyan raised his head and looked at the dark sky.

"There is a good saying that people will eventually be trapped in their lives for things that they could not get when they were young, I thought it was a joke, but I didn't expect it......"

"I ...... Stuck ...... too."

After speaking, Zhu Zhanyan stood up, looked up at the dark sky, in the sky where he couldn't see anything but darkness, he seemed to see a familiar face, and also thought of the night before he left Shuntian.

Zhu Zhanyan still remembered that before leaving Suncheon, the old man who was about to die held his hand stiffly, half ordering and half praying that he would not be stained with the blood of the Zhu family in the future.

He's done it, at least so far.

When he entered Shuntian, Zhu Zhanyan should have disposed of his cousin, because his name was not right, and it was the best choice to dispose of it directly.

It's the same with people, when you don't have a choice, even if it's the one you hated the most, you have to pinch your nose and accept it.

Like the old man at the beginning, everyone knows that his superficial Fengtian Jingjing is actually a rebellion, but when he sees and hears nowhere to be found, and the old man ascends the throne and becomes the emperor, people can only accept it.

There are some things that are difficult to say, but easy to say...... It is simple, too.

If a tree does not have bark, it will surely die, and people will be shameless, and the world will be invincible.

When you're shameless, all problems aren't a problem.

Zhu Zhantan looked at his eldest brother's back, frowning, full of doubts.

He is still young, and he has not experienced many things, and his health has not been good since he was a child, plus Zhu Zhanyan used to fight for King Wu's lineage and work hard for King Wu's lineage.

Although he knew that his eldest brother was likely to eventually sit in the position that their father longed for, Zhu Zhantan did not think about fighting or grabbing it.

Because he knows that without his eldest brother, there would be no home of his own.

Therefore, he doesn't know what his eldest brother has experienced and what he is worried about.
