Xiao Changle pursed his lips and said: "That's it, my brother-in-law doesn't like power schemes, he only likes to exchange hearts for hearts, and my father has a bad idea because of his partiality with the fourth brother!" ”

You......

Li Chengqian hurriedly said: "Little sister, it's not about my father, I came up with the idea." I didn't expect good intentions to do bad things. ”

Li Er waved his hand and said, "Okay, the matter has come to this point, is it possible that I have to apologize to him in person?" has been together for many years, if it weren't for me to protect him, would he have been able to get to where he is today? What a bastard! Let's not talk about him, Changle, I haven't been back for a long time, let's go see your queen mother. ”

Xiao Changle said happily: "I also miss my father and mother, by the way, I still have to go to see my sister-in-law, maybe she won't recognize me anymore." ”

After speaking, he happily ran out of the small study and ran all the way towards the Lizheng Palace.

"Brother Huang, tell me about Lingnan."

Li Daozong pointed to the box left by Xiao Rui, "The details are written in the Hou Ye's fold, and the minister will give me a rough idea, and the minister can't tell how big the plate needs to be spread." ”

At this moment, the chamberlain Lao Gao received a report from his subordinates, and then hurriedly walked into the small study, reporting with a tangled face, "Your Majesty, Master Hou ...... him"

"What's wrong? Didn't he go back? Could it be that you're back to cause trouble again? Li Er said dissatisfied.

"No, the next person came to report that Hou Ye forcibly broke into the prison and took away Xu Datong, who was to be killed."

Oh? Taken Xu Datong?

After thinking for a while, Li Er waved his hand and said, "It's okay, Xu Datong made his own decision to attack Xiao Rui, what kind of character is Xiao Rui?" It is estimated that he couldn't find Qingque, so he took Xu Datong to vent his anger. That's fine, this kid has been silent for many years, and it seems that many people have forgotten his ruthlessness. ”

The chamberlain Lao Gao reminded: "Your Majesty, what if the Hou Ye takes Xu Datong away but doesn't kill him?" ”

Don't kill him? An enemy, don't kill and keep it for the New Year...... Wait, you mean?

Li Er's face changed a few times, and after thinking about the joint, he stomped his feet angrily, "This bastard, if he really saved Xu Datong, who was guilty, then Qingque is afraid that he will be so scared that he will never dare to return to Chang'an." ”

Although he figured out the trick, Li Er didn't dare to say that he forcibly wanted people back, and he was at a loss, so he finally appeased this evil star, just a death row prisoner, and he couldn't provoke Xiao Rui anymore because of this.

"That's it, let him go, let Qingque learn a lesson."

Afterwards, the crown prince Chengqian returned to the East Palace and told his teacher Zhao Deyan the whole story. Zhao Deyan laughed, "It is worthy of the Hou Ye, it is indeed worthy of the name, and revenge will not be overnight!" ”

"Also, don't you see? He's helping you clear the way. As long as Xu Datong lives for one day, King Wei will not dare to return to Chang'an City, and if he can't return to Chang'an City, he won't be able to make much waves. And in the whole world, among the many princes, except for King Wei, who is a fellow prince and his mother, who else is qualified to compete with you? ”

"King Wei? Hehe, he shouldn't have provoked Master Hou. Even His Majesty had to let Hou Ye, but he didn't understand, and he reaped the consequences. ”

Li Chengqian was puzzled and said: "Teacher, as far as I know, the siege and killing of my brother-in-law was really Xu Datong's own initiative, and the fourth brother really didn't know about it. ”

Zhao Deyan asked rhetorically: "What about calculating Wei Zheng?" With Xu Datong's mind, can he calculate a prime minister? How dare he calculate a prime minister? ”

"Lord Hou is selfless, but he is the most partial to his relatives, Wei Zheng is his father-in-law, and if he wants to move him, it is no different from moving Lord Hou."

"If he doesn't provoke the Hou Ye, then he forms a party for personal gain, and even unites with the Xingyang Zheng family to secretly cultivate forces, these Hou Ye will not care, and the Hou Ye never participates in the matter of seizing the heir, which is a headache for His Majesty, and it is a trouble that you, the prince, need to deal with. Compared with officialdom, Hou Ye cares more about people's livelihood, if anyone harms the people because of the struggle for power and profit, tsk......"

"That stone tablet on the Imperial Observatory is not an ornament!"

Li Chengqian nodded, he felt that the teacher's analysis was very reasonable, it turned out that Mr. Zhao was the one who knew his brother-in-law best.

"That's not right, since my brother-in-law doesn't participate in the inheritance and party struggle, then why does my brother-in-law help me wholeheartedly?"

Zhao Deyan shook his head and said: "I don't know how much selfishness there is, but the most important thing is that His Majesty wants him to help you." Because you are the crown prince, it is not a party dispute to help you. As long as you don't make mistakes, you are the first in line to the throne, and no one can defeat you. ”

"Remember, you can do nothing, but you can't make mistakes. Not even if it's a moment of confusion! ”

Li Chengqian nodded heavily: "Yes, the student wrote it down." Thank you for your advice. ”

Zhao Deyan smiled and comforted: "Hehe, in terms of protecting King Wei, although your idea is a little dim, but your heart is good, Your Majesty will not blame you, but will appreciate your sincere brotherhood." So you don't have to be burdened. ”

"If it is really as King Jiangxia suggested, it can really help King Wei solve the problem, and even turn bad things into good things, but if King Wei takes the opportunity to become a student of Lord Hou, it will not be a good thing for you."

Li Chengqian was a little worried: "Teacher, the fourth brother is young, he looks elegant on the outside, but he is deep inside, what if he is radical and goes the wrong way?" In fact, if I can help the fourth brother change his temperament, it is nothing to let my brother-in-law teach him, after all, we are brothers, and I don't want to be alienated from him. Do you have any good ideas? ”

Zhao Deyan was silent, he knew Li Chengqian, this was true, this prince was kind-hearted. But because of this, he couldn't help with it.

So he shook his head and said: "There are too few famous teachers in the world, and only Hou Ye can teach King Wei." Look at it, Your Majesty will send a teacher to King Wei, but the Manchu Dynasty has changed its civil and military affairs all over again, and King Wei can't learn to be truly humble and polite. For some people, unruliness is the bloodline inheritance in their bones. ”

But......

Li Chengqian wanted to ask Zhao Deyan, but was stopped by waving his hand, "I really can't help it, you have had an experience, and you and I met by fate, so you are willing to listen to me." But King Wei is different, or follow your example and banish him to the mountains and wilderness? ”

"In short, it is impossible to make Hou Ye change his words, King Wei has already offended Hou Ye to death. Don't say that you persuade you, even Princess Xiangcheng can't persuade you. ”

Li Chengqian was silent, yes, the fourth brother has been clothed and fed since he was a child, his body is fat, and he is out of breath when he walks, let him go out to travel? It is estimated that he will starve to death in less than three days. Alas...... I hope he can figure it out.

In Xiaojiazhuang, after catching up with his wife and children, Xiao Rui interrogated Xu Datong, who was really hard-mouthed, insisting that it was all done by himself and had nothing to do with others.

But who is Xiao Rui? Xiao Rui personally instructed the torture in the prison, and in less than half an hour, Xu Datong was completely abandoned.

After listening to the cause and effect, Xiao Rui was really angry, Li Tai, he didn't study well at a young age, he was really ruthless!

"Okay, Ben Hou won't kill you. And stay here, and when the navy is completed, I will find you a new errand, and then I will give Ben Hou his life. If I hadn't snatched you out of death row in time, you would have been cold in the wake of an hour later. ”

Xu Datong was stunned throughout the whole process, but after explaining, he realized that he almost became the substitute ghost of King Wei.

It's nonsense to say that you don't complain, you are loyal to protect the four princes, but you are not afraid of death, but you are good, take all the benefits, and push me out to blame if something happens? Do you want to raze the three tribes? Why?

After figuring it out, I couldn't help but kneel and kowtow, thanking Master Hou for saving his life. But why? Xu Datong doesn't understand, he is going to kill the champion Hou, he has no reason to save me?

Xiao Rui smiled: "It's very simple, I want you to live well and tell the world to live." As long as you are here, the fourth prince Li Tai will never dare to return to Chang'an. ”

Hiss...... Master Hou, do you want to be a dead soldier and kill the four princes?

Xiao Rui waved his hand and said, "I didn't say, don't look for death by yourself, you will survive hard." It's just to scare him, and it doesn't make you really die. How can he say that he is also my brother-in-law, and if he really killed him, how can I explain it to my wife? But I, Xiao Rui, never suffer losses, capital crimes can be avoided and living crimes cannot be escaped, can I not teach him a lesson? ”

"So you give Ben Hou a life, live a good life, without Ben Hou's order, you are not allowed to die!"

Ahem...... That's good, that's good! The last will be ordered! Without the order of the Hou Ye, he would never dare to die.

A shout came from outside the door, "Master Hou, student Xia Huairen asks to see you!" ”

Xiao Rui: Scared people? What the heck? What the hell is this name?
