The sixth prince held the cup and looked at everyone, looking a little embarrassed and flustered, "Father and emperor forgive the sin, son...... Erchen has been in the palace and has never seen blood. Suddenly, I heard the third brother talk about it...... A momentary gaffe! ”

The emperor frowned slightly and waved his hand.

For this son, he doesn't like it, at most he feels a little guilty, which doesn't make him value it much......

But the eldest prince, the second prince, and the third prince were reminded that it was not just the three of them who were princes in this house, and Xiaoliu was also the son of his father.

As a prince, he has enjoyed the glory and wealth of Great Wei, so he naturally has to make some contributions to Great Wei, such as...... Go to the border army to be tortured, such as to negotiate with the steppe people!

"Father, the sixth brother has been in the north, and he must be very familiar with the border army. Why don't you let the sixth brother go to the border? The third prince was the first to propose, and he secretly wanted to give his brother a hat to make friends with the border army privately.

The eldest prince immediately followed, "Yes, father. The sixth brother has lived here for a long time, and he often goes to the grassland. There is no better person than him! ”

The second prince also attacked jointly, smiling and smiling, "The father is wise, and the sixth brother is not young, it's time to share your worries for the court!" ”

Everyone was in the court, and no one was a fool, and they all wanted to be shrewd like a fox. When they saw that the three princes had such a tacit understanding and pushed out the six princes so unanimously, they knew that they were uneasy and kind.

But in the end, the life or death of the six princes has nothing to do with them.

At this time, who is willing to risk offending the three princes to defend the six princes?

So, everyone who was interested in the same lowered their heads again, began to count the floor tiles, and pretended to be deaf and dumb!

The sixth prince was a little panicked, and hurriedly got up and saluted, and responded, "Big brother, second brother, third brother, I have been in the palace for so many years, and I have never been to the grassland, nor have I seen anyone from the border army. I...... I don't dare to take this errand, if anything goes wrong, it won't ruin the important matter of my father's meeting with the king of the steppe khan......"

The third prince was afraid that the fish would take off the hook, so he hurriedly retorted, "Oh, sixth brother, you are humble." We came here this time, and you were responsible for the repair of the palace and the laying of official roads, and you even took the imperial history to punish the officials who were greedy for ink. This is not a trivial matter, you have done so well, but just contact the grassland, you will definitely be able to do it clearly. ”

"Yes, the sixth brother can do it with confidence. Big brother is optimistic about you! The eldest prince continued to mend the knife, a younger brother is capable, and he also looks honored.

The six princes were so anxious that there were already faint traces of sweat on their foreheads, but they couldn't escape the joint attack of the three elder brothers no matter what.

In the end, an old minister couldn't stand it, got up and said, "Your Majesty, the sixth prince is indeed too young, and he has never been in contact with matters related to the grassland. Why don't you change someone? ”

When the third prince saw that someone was demolishing the stage, he was annoyed, and immediately said, "Lord Wu is right, since you feel so sorry for the sixth brother, it is better for you to accompany him on a trip." The sixth brother is young, but you are an old minister, complementing each other, isn't it a beautiful thing! ”

The eldest prince and the second prince glanced at each other and nodded.

This old minister surnamed Wu is not any important official of the Sixth Ministry, and he is the supervisor of Qin Tianjian.

If it was placed in the previous dynasty, he would also be a pivotal figure, but now the emperor does not believe in these astrological numerology, except for the sacrifice, let this person come out and pretend, and he doesn't care at all on weekdays.

Even if he went to the grassland with the sixth child, or even fell to the sixth child, it would have absolutely no impact on the competition for the next emperor!

Lord Wu was generalized, groaning, not knowing what to do.

The emperor yawned, a little impatient, waved his hand and ordered, "Then the sixth and Lord Wu will go to the grassland, and remember to let the border army send a team of men and horses to protect it." ”

The matter was settled, and no one objected, and of course it was not easy to oppose it, and they did not want to oppose it.

The Six Princes and Lord Wu got up and knelt down and kowtowed, taking the hot potato.

After a few more gossips, the emperor dispersed the banquet, and the eldest prince, the second prince, and the third prince walked away in high spirits.

The officials followed closely behind, for fear of being caught by the six princes and contaminating with right and wrong......

The sixth prince smiled bitterly and invited Lord Wu to his courtyard to discuss the matter of going to the border tomorrow.

No one knew, closing the courtyard door, Xizi and the others guarded it strictly, but the six princes and Lord Wu were depressed, and they all showed smiling faces......

The third prince consciously plucked his younger brother, and was very happy, and when he returned to his courtyard, he beckoned his entourage to set up wine.

The entourage was hiding something in his heart, and when he heard that the master was going to drink, he hurried to Zhang Luo.

Soon, the sumptuous wine and food were arranged, and the two dancing girls were called to accompany the wine.

The two of them, one is delicate and the other is beautiful, they are both rare beauties, coaxing the three princes to get half drunk.

Only then did the entourage cautiously say, "Your Highness, Mr. Zhou went to Tai'an...... Something went wrong, I'm afraid it won't work. ”

The third prince's mind was confused, and he didn't think about it for a while, so he asked, "What's the matter with Tai'an?" ”

The retinue can't, they can only make it clear.

"Your Highness, didn't Mr. Zhou go to Tai'an to open up the cashmere clothes and pants business. Who would have thought that the family who had been doing this business before couldn't withstand the oppression of those merchants in the county, and had already sold the weaving of cashmere clothes and pants at a low price.

Nowadays, almost everyone in Tai'an County knows how to weave cashmere clothes and pants, and Mr. Zhou is a step slower......"

"Idiot!" The third prince was unhappy and scolded.

He didn't necessarily have a cashmere pants business, but he thought it was profitable, and now that the business was gone, the silver was naturally gone, so he couldn't be angry and disappointed.

"Send a letter to Mr. Zhou!" The third prince snorted coldly, "Useless things, let him find out what's going on, is someone leaking the news in advance and ruining the good things of His Highness!" ”

The entourage was embarrassed, and responded more and more cautiously, "Your Highness, I'm afraid Mr. Zhou can't be on an errand." When he was in Tai'an that day, the horse was bitten on the neck by a weasel that came out of the roadside, which startled the carriage, and Mr. Zhou was thrown into the moat...... Dead! ”

After that, he was afraid that the Third Highness would be angry, so he hurriedly added a few more words, "However, the guards have already gone to check." This incident was indeed an accident, and many people present at the time saw it clearly, and it was impossible for someone to do it. Also, the cashmere business was bought and sold before Mr. Zhou left, and everything happened to be ......"

By coincidence!

The third prince angrily slammed the wine glass in his hand, "Waste, what a waste!" It's not a trivial thing to do! ”

The attendants and dancing queens, so much so that the guards at the door knelt down in fright.

Others just stopped, but the entourage couldn't help but slander in their hearts.

People say that if a soldier bears, there will be a nest of bears. When the master just ran back from the border gate and was scared to run back, they should be some slave waste!

It's really unfair that they are being scolded!

But this can only be thought of, he is beaten to death and does not dare to say it.
