The war horses of the Seven Princes galloped all the way to the front of the imperial road before they were stopped, and two guards bowed and saluted, saying, "Your Highness." ”

The Seventh Prince laughed and said hello, said the names of the two guards, and looked natural, his eyebrows flew and he smiled: "Why, even if I go to the palace, will I be searched?" ”

The two janissaries saluted and said, "Where the duty lies, please forgive your highness." ”

"Haha, I'm kidding."

The Seven Princes turned over and dismounted, and then spread their arms, letting these people search their bodies, the Jinzhou knife was first hidden under the wrist of the left hand, when they searched the body, the fingers moved slightly, silently slid down the wide cuffs of the gorgeous clothes at this moment, and then controlled with strength, and went to the right wrist, which is a skill learned when torturing a snake scout.

He once relied on this skill to personally infiltrate the enemy camp and single-handedly dismantle an army of 3,000.

As for the evil spirit?

The soldiers are all angry.

If it is the gang of men who are fighting and rolling at the border pass, there is a high probability that they can detect that something is wrong, but these guards are just circling under the roots of the imperial city, wearing luxurious armor and boasting everywhere, but they are like puppets guarding the royal family.

The Seventh Prince passed the inspection safely, looking lazy, still riding on a horse on this royal road.

It is extremely long, with extremely high walls on both sides.

There are castle towers in front and back.

As long as the front and rear gates are closed, it is an urn city, the humane qi is suppressed, the rain of arrows falls on both sides, and the real people of the Daomen are also hated, the war horse of the Seven Princes slowed down, and the young man in fresh clothes and angry horses turned his back to the road he came, waved his hand at the two guards, and said lazily: "When I come back, I will drink with you." ”

In the past, the royal road was dismounted.

His own eunuch led him to the side hall.

Said that the saint was among them, and then went in to deliver the message, and only when he came out did he say that the saint announced that the seven princes had entered, and the seven princes pressed their hands on the gate that consumed a lot of labor and material resources, and suddenly forced, the gate was pushed open, and the hall where the emperor lived, even if it was a side hall for dealing with political affairs, was still extremely magnificent.

There are palace lamps on both sides to illuminate the square inch, the Seven Princes stand at the door, the sunlight outside is like a sharp sword to shatter the gloom in this hall, the eyes of the young man are like torches, inside the side hall, the man who is known as the saint looks no more than thirty years old, there are some simple meals on the table, and he is still dealing with the twists and turns.

The sight of the Seven Princes is sharp, and those who can open heavy bows have excellent eyesight, and they can see the content of those twists and turns.

[In the states and counties, there is a bumper harvest, and the people have surplus grain in their homes, all of which depend on the grace of heaven and the grace of the saints. 】

Annotate below with cinnabar.

[Know your heart of flattery, don't do anything, if you do something to exploit the people, I will ask you]

He also said: [In the criminal law, there is a question about how many people are beheaded, please ask the saint to decide]

The annotation says: "Those who punish the law, whether they kill or punish, should have laws, but they have the virtue of a good life, and submit the file]

There are many dossiers like this, and the sage smiled slightly: "The New Year is approaching, and there are too many of these dossiers, but when it comes to people's livelihood and criminal law, you can't fail to check it, but there is no way, so I have to eat something here, and the emperor can eat it?" ”

He sniffed it and scolded with a smile: "The wine and food of the Drunken Sky Tower, you Ah Ling, don't get too close to those Wuxun children." ”

"The families are entangled, it's like a net, if you get too close, it will inevitably be affected, even if you are a general at the border, there will be all kinds of things, and now, these martial arts children are not in power, and they can be about brothers with each other."

"He has become a marquis of each family every day, and his interests are mutually repulsive, so what should you do?"

"If you don't move, you will form a party, or a military general will form a party."

"Your father and I can still tolerate you, but your eldest brother may not be, can you remember?"

He admonished a few times, stretched out his hand to sweep the files on the table underneath, and put out many things in the food box, and said with a smile: "But whether you eat it or not, you still come to eat something with me, it just so happens that a person is annoyed to look at these files here, and it is a good thing to find someone to eat." ”

"Come on, give me a pair of dishes and chopsticks, and make some dishes."

"Yes."

The Seventh Prince's heart was slightly shaken, and then he arched his hand and said, "Minister, I have seen a saint." ”

So the smile on the emperor's face paused slightly, raised his head to look at the tall son, who had just been weak and crowned, his voice paused, put down the eating utensils, only sat on the chair, shook his head and scolded with a smile: "Titled minister, not titled, it seems that I came here today for some serious business." ”

"Tell me, what trouble have you caused again? Which noble's son did you beat? Or do you quarrel with any of the adults of the Hanlin Academy, they can't see you, and they want to refer to you in the court? Go ahead. ”

"You caused me a lot of trouble when you were young."

"But now, their dads are not as good as your dad, so even if you get into trouble, this time your dad can cover you."

"But don't hurt the people, don't do evil, don't oppress what's good."

The Seventh Prince was sitting opposite the emperor and said slowly: "The minister is studying today, and he has something to understand, thinking about the words of the sage, so he came here to ask, hoping to get an answer." ”

The emperor laughed and scolded: "You can even read? ”

"It's really unusual."

Then he leaned back in his chair and said, "Let's ask." ”

The Seventh Prince sat down and asked, "What should I do if I am a brother?" ”

The emperor couldn't help but smile and replied: "Brothers, friends, brothers, brothers, brothers ”

"This is a truth that a three-year-old child will understand."

"What? Got in trouble with your brothers? After all, you are blood relatives, like the palms of your hands, but you have to support each other, in this world, when your father and mother are gone, only your relationship is the closest, and you can spread out and talk about anything, but don't fight. ”

The Seventh Prince lowered his eyes and said, "I see. ”

"What about fathers?"

The emperor frowned slightly: "As a father, you should teach your children and grandchildren by word and deed." ”

"There are those who are not the sons of men, and there are those who are not the fathers."

The Seven Princes stepped forward, because they were sitting in the court, so they walked a few steps on their knees, and there was only a distance between the tables and the sage, and the sage frowned slightly, the Seven Princes raised their heads, their eyes were burning, and they asked hoarsely: "What should I do if I am the king?" ”

The emperor's face had lost his smile, and his eyes looked at the Seventh Emperor who was only three steps away.

The Seven Princes did not rise up, like a dormant beast, and the emperor did not immediately get up in anger, did not shout loudly, the air was like a tense bowstring, both sides were restrained, such restraint came from the blood in the heart and the last luck, the emperor replied: "The way to govern the country is to love the people." ”

"Love the people, love the people."

The Seventh Prince suddenly laughed a few times and said: "The husband is a general, protecting the country and the people, sweeping away the country's dirt, what the minister asked——"

"If a brother betrays his brother and kills his brother, can he kill him?!"

"Can you kill a man who commits great sins for a father?!"

"Whoever kills the people for the sake of glory and wealth, can he be killed!"

The Seventh Emperor stared at his father in front of him, word by word, his qi became more and more violent, and the emperor's face finally changed suddenly, and he suddenly got up and scolded: "Are you here today to go crazy?!" Shichiro, if you want to go crazy, go to the frontier, go to those demon clans to go crazy, don't come here, I have to deal with the twists and turns. ”

The Seventh Prince said: "Jinzhou." ”

The emperor's body paused slightly, and his eyes were sharp.

The Seventh Prince said: "The matter of Jinzhou, is it ...... you did it?"

The hall was quiet and terrifying, and the Seventh Prince asked in a hoarse voice:

"My son just wants an answer, Daddy."

The emperor gasped, sat down again, stared at the Seventh Prince in front of him, and said:

"Yes."

The Seven Princes' hearts finally dissipated, and the soldiers were brave, almost gritting their teeth and asking, "Why!" ”

"Why!"

The emperor said, "What why?!" ”

The Seventh Prince slammed his head on the table and got up, the soldiers had been brave since ancient times, and he did not back down from the desperate pain of his father in front of him, and said angrily:

"That's millions of people, how can you do such a thing! Why! ”

The emperor swept his robe, knocked all the food on the table to the ground, stained the dossier, his eyes were as bright as knives, he did not back down, and said angrily: "What should you choose?!" ”

"What is it? Is it something you can think about over and over again?! ”

"That's a once-in-a-lifetime fighter!"

"Opportunities are gone in a blink of an eye!"

"There is only a moment when you make a decision, do you know in a moment, you are also a human being, I am also a human being, everyone knows, when emotions come up, there is no way to control yourself, the decision when making a decision is very good, who has not regretted it afterwards?!"

The emperor pulled his son by the collar, pointed directly at the files that had fallen to the ground, and said:

"Look at these twists and turns!"

"Look at the world again!"

"The hall is full of purple doctors, the world is full of Wen family clothes, and the people are all over the world!"

"A daughter can turn friends against each other, a small family's inheritance, a few houses can make blood brothers die and die, and the position of a county official can make those who have read sage books for more than ten years or decades rob the dog's brains, what do you think will happen to them in my position?"

"And what I faced back then, but the biggest position in the world, is in front of you, as long as you nod, it will be yours."

"Ask yourself, who can stand it?"

"Even saints have times when they have thoughts, and when they are dizzy, they make decisions that have no chance of regretting them at all."

"It's the fastest way to pass it out, and when I want to twist it, it's late, you know?! That step is wrong, that is, there is no return, at that time 600,000 iron cavalry has not moved, if I dare to turn back at that time, I can only die to thank the world! ”

The emperor stared at his son.

The Seventh Prince said: "That's millions of people......"

"Millions, yes."

"But for anyone, who can exchange their own lives for the lives of others?"

The emperor let go of his hand, and said in a gentle tone: "Rather teach the world to die and I live alone, the emperor is called a lonely widow, and he is the biggest lone husband in the world, if he doesn't have such an awareness, what else will he be an emperor?" ”

"Those who read said that the gentleman cooks far away because he can't bear to see his death, saying that this is benevolence, hahaha, what a joke, aren't they also eating meat? If I don't see the appearance of cooking sheep and slaughtering cows, and eating meat is said to be benevolence, then I have never seen those three million people, and eating their flesh and blood is not also [great benevolence]! ”

"In this way, we can know that in this world, millions of scholars are just high-sounding beasts."

"Blame me only because they are not the ones who eat meat."

The emperor replied: "If those people in Jinzhou were in front of me back then, I would definitely make the same choice as my eldest brother; If I make the decision at this moment again, I will let the iron rider enter Jinzhou, because I know that the iron rider will inevitably suffer huge losses, and I don't have to spend so many lives here to drag down the eldest brother, but no. ”

"But no, all that was in front of me at that time was the supreme position of power and a number."

"At that time, I didn't have the experience and bearing I have now."

The Seventh Prince said: "Numbers? ”

"Yes, numbers, in exchange for supremacy."

"Even if there are more than three million white bones under your feet?"

The emperor shouted: "My son is stupid! ”

He spoke arrogantly: "Since ancient times, what hero has not been covered with white bones under his feet? ”

"Only by standing here can I realize my ambition."

"They should die for this, and they should have no regrets."

"No more regrets? Lots of bones? ”

"Heroes?"

The Seven Princes muttered several times, suddenly laughed a few times, and were furious, military strategists, judging the situation, knowing how to advance and retreat, and knowing how to forbear; But the soldier situation, like the edge of the soldier, can not be broken, the only blood brave, angry to the crown, raised his hand and slammed the table, only three steps away, but one step has been crossed, the anger in the heart, despair and pain, gathered like a furnace, after all, turned into an angry roar:

"Traitor !!!"

Behind the luck suddenly roared, turned into a tiger, the tiger roared and roared, faintly becoming more and more real.

"Dead !!"

The blood of the soldiers suddenly exploded.

Cut off the grace of father and son, and cut off the love of flesh and blood.

In an instant, with the sound of the blade rushing into the body, blood spilled on the file.

Blinding red.
