Chapter 1 Dawu Waste
Early in the morning, the Dawu Empire, the capital: Luoqi.
Imperial Palace, Jiwu Palace.
"Your Majesty has a will, declare! The sixth prince Dongfang Yu entered the palace. ”
Dongfang Yu, the sixth prince, kneeling on his knees, had been waiting outside the Jiwu Hall for a long time; I saw a little eunuch, walking in small steps, reading the will.
Dongfang Yu slowly raised his head, his expression was complicated, his eyes were empty, and even! With some horror. He got up hurriedly, not daring to hesitate for fear of offending the holy will and slapping the tongue.
Dongfang Yu was stepping up to the hall, his head lowered, not daring to look at anyone; The forbidden soldiers on duty around him, he seemed to be able to feel the irrepressible ridicule and sarcasm on their faces. Oh, yes! The six princes who seem to be noble are not high-minded, he is a well-known waste son of Dawu, a prince who can be mocked by any noble, soldier, and even palace maid and eunuch.
All cause and effect are because of his mother. His mother, Luo, had a lowly status and was a concubine, but she was beautiful, generous and benevolent, and was favored by the emperor, accepted as a concubine, and gave birth to him.
You know, how lucky is a concubine who is favored by the emperor and accepted as a concubine? But this is not the prelude to the advent of happiness, there is no power behind him, and in a place like the harem, after all, he can't escape the scourge of the queen and other concubines...... His mother, Luo, finally couldn't stand such a torturous place, so she took the initiative to move out of the harem courtyard and live comfortably in a small dilapidated courtyard.
In the Jiwu Palace, the ministers stood together, according to the size of their official positions, standing in turn from front to back. In ancient times, when ministers went to the court, the size of their official positions was naturally left and then right, and the priorities were clear.
On the top of the main hall, sitting upright, with a solemn face, wearing a yellow robe of nine dragons, wearing a crown, faintly embarking a chilling king's atmosphere, this person is the Emperor of Dawu - Emperor Xuanwu, and also Dongfang Yu's father.
And on the small golden dragon chair in the lower left, sitting is naturally the prince, who is also his eldest brother.
Dongfang Yu rarely went to court, and when he saw many imperial ministers, his cowardice was particularly prominent. Of course! It is a fact that the six princes are wastes, and everyone knows it. These ministers, looking at Dongfang Yu, all had a shallow smile on their faces.
"Son-in-law Dongfang Yu, meet your father, long live your father, long live your father." Dongfang Yu knelt down awkwardly, and his voice was extremely weak, which made it easier to be despised by others.
"Hmmm! Flatten! Dongfang Shuo nodded helplessly, seeing Dongfang Yu's delicate appearance, he was a little unhappy.
As the emperor of Dawu, Dongfang Shuo's own martial arts are not low, and other princes have been practicing martial arts since childhood, and their martial arts are also extraordinary; Dongfang Yu's soft appearance is in the middle of Dongfang Shuo's heart attack.
"Thank you, Father!" Dongfang Yu thanked him and got up.
He tried to step aside, but found that there was no one around him to leave a place for him. The dignified Six Princes of Dawu fell into such an embarrassing and embarrassing situation, even Dongfang Yu himself was suddenly at a loss. Popularity! Is this the human heart? If the guess is correct, above the court, almost half of the ministers' hearts have already served the prince.
Now! The prince was very proud, and the smile on his face was extremely conspicuous.
"Sixth Prince, come here!"
Just when Dongfang Yu thought he was going to lose face, behind him, a low and cool voice sounded.
Is it the general Liu Wenlong? This god of war who guards the Dawu Empire? actually gave him the most advanced position. Dongfang Yu couldn't believe it. But he bowed down and cast a grateful look. And then into the ranks.
"Humph! Damn, you're in luck. ”
The prince's face was cold, and he was extremely angry. But he didn't dare to be outstanding, he offended the god of war, and his crown prince was probably over.
Liu Wenlong's deterrent power is probably more useful than that of the emperor.
"Everyone, discuss this morning, only one thing, the age of the six princes is over sixteen years old, it's time to be fiefdom and crowned king, let's see, where should the six princes be arranged." Dongfang Shuo's gaze swept over the ministers coldly, as if to say, this is my son, no matter how bad it is, don't do too much about the fiefdom.
The ministers glanced at each other, but they couldn't make a sound. Fiefdom and kingship are a matter of the royal family's own family, ministers, just to say some suggestions!
It's okay if you change to other princes, but the six princes in front of you, the fief and the king, it is really difficult to choose, the seal is heavy, and there is no talent, I am afraid of offending the prince and other princes; If you offend the emperor, you will have a hard time in the future. This kind of thing, I'm afraid that only the three ministers and other ministers advised.
"In the opinion of the ministers, the six princes have a good place to go." Just when everyone was in trouble, the imperial historian Cai Zhong came out to admonish.
"Oh! Cai Qing's family might as well talk about it. Dongfang Shuo said suddenly. Cai Zhong is ranked as the third duke, and he is the emperor, so he has to give some face.
"Liangzhou, Qindi, this is a good place to go. Although Qindi is located in the border pass, it belongs to Yongliang, and! This place is only seventy miles away from the border, if the six princes can be sealed here, one can restore the people's plan, and the other can inspire the soldiers to resist foreign races, so far! Wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone? Cai Zhong said.
"Father, I think what Dr. Cai said is right, since the sixth brother is crowned king, this place is the most suitable." The prince also came to echo him.
But who doesn't know that the Liangzhou area, approaching the border pass, especially Qindi, is almost a barrier in Liangzhou, often baptized by war, and the population loss is serious, which also makes the people of Qindi fierce and abnormal, almost like mountain bandits. Even if he goes, Dongfang Yu may not be able to suppress it.
What a proper ploy!
And at the moment! Dongfang Yu, who didn't say much, took a step forward and said pleadingly: "Father, let's go to Qindi!" ”
A waste son is a waste son, and he actually took the initiative to agree to go to Qindi, but he catered to the prince and became a "good person".
Everyone thought Dongfang Yu was stupid, but Liu Wenlong was the only one, but his eyelids jumped, and he couldn't help but show deep eyes. The land of Liangzhou, barren is synonymous with this place, but they don't know that Liangzhou Iron Riding is the first in the world. Liangzhou? It's just that a truly talented guide is missing.
"In that case! The six princes obey the order! ”
"Dongfang Yu, the sixth prince, is the king of Qin, and the fief is Qindi. Three days later, let's go! ”
"Thank you, Father."
Dongfang Yu knelt down and immediately raised his head. And the weakness in the eyes before has long dissipated without a trace, in exchange for a kind of stubbornness and relief, but also sharpness.
The wood has become a boat, the will, the king has become a fact, and more than ten years of humiliation will disappear without a trace the moment he enters the Qin land.
And all these changes were only noticed by the great general Liu Wenlong.
