In the small courtyard, Li Qing settled the donkey, moved the little Mazha, and chatted with it......

Zhu Qizhen didn't know what to talk about with a donkey, but he didn't dare to bother.

It wasn't until it was dark and the donkey was asleep that he stepped forward and asked, "Sir, is he ...... How so? ”

"Who?"

“…… Emperor. ”

Li Qing sighed and said, "He will come to see you tomorrow." ”

"Okay," Zhu Qizhen breathed a sigh of relief and asked again, "He... What is the situation of the emperor? ”

"It's not good," Li Qing sighed, "and cherish it." ”

After speaking, he walked to the wing room without looking back, leaving Zhu Qizhen alone in a daze.

The night sky was bright, and he looked up, looking at the most shining ones, bitter and ashamed, gloomy and sad......

The next day, early in the morning.

Li Qing pushed the door and walked out of the room, on the stone table in the small courtyard, there were all kinds of breakfast, steamed buns, and small pickles; Eggs, rice porridge, fried juniper...... Not abundant, but abundant.

Zhu Wanqing tilted his head and smiled: "Just wait for Uncle Li, my eldest brother and I will get up before dawn ......"

Seeing that her father's old face was as black as the bottom of a pot, she blushed and explained: "Daddy, it's the big brother next door who got up and shouted first, not ......"

"Alright, alright." Zhu Qi said angrily: "Shut up, how afraid are you that you won't be able to get married, and your daughter's family is still in a hurry, are you ashamed?" ”

"Ahem...... Uncle Zhu, Sister Wanqing is also to let my godfather eat better, don't talk about her like that. Li Hong couldn't see it, and explained for the little girl.

Zhu Qizhen: "I taught my daughter, what does it have to do with you, how old are you?" ”

If it weren't for Li Qing's home field, he would have wanted to roll up his sleeves, the hard-earned flowers have not bloomed yet, but they have been remembered all day long, and no one is comfortable.

Especially Zhu Qizhen, an old father who dotes on his daughter, has the heart to stab Li Hong to death.

"Lao Tzu warns you, you kid had better obey the rules, if you dare to do something wrong, I don't mind helping you find an errand in the palace." Zhu Qizhen's eyes breathed fire. gòйЪ.ōΓg

Li Hong smiled bitterly: "Uncle Zhu, it's been so many years, you still can't see through the virtuous nephew, I'm even crowned, and I haven't married a wife yet......"

"Who didn't let you marry." Zhu Qizhen sneered, "Also, the virtuous nephew is called by the elders to the juniors, but isn't it a self-proclaimed name, have you read a book?" Let's make a face! ”

“…… You just don't like me. ”

"yes, I just don't like you." Zhu Qizhen snorted coldly, "What do you want to do with me?" ”

Li Hong: "......"

"Daddy......"

"Shut up!" Zhu Qizhen hated it, "You are only thirteen years old, at your age, how can you ...... How much do you hate to marry? ”

"The poor people are married at the age of thirteen or fourteen." The little girl muttered.

She wasn't afraid at all, of course, this was all favored by Zhu Qizhen, and she couldn't blame others.

Zhu Qizhen was stunned, and then his body trembled with anger: "Okay, good, you have really grown up, your wings are stiff, you are sure that Lao Tzu will not have a second child, right?" ”

"Uh...... Daddy is not angry, his daughter is not in a hurry to get married," Zhu Wanqing blushed and snorted: "It's just ...... Let me explain it to you. ”

Zhu Qizhen slapped the table and got up: "Don't eat it!" ”

"Uncle Zhu, look at your ......"

Zhu Qizhen turned his head suddenly, his black and red face was really terrifying, and Li Hong was so frightened that he swallowed the second half of his sentence.

"You'd better not close your eyes when you sleep." Zhu Qizhen gritted his teeth and said.

With that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

Li Hong swallowed his saliva and asked for help from Li Qing, who came after washing, "Godfather, you have to look at Uncle Zhu a little." ”

"Look at your guts." Li Qing rolled his eyes, stepped forward and sat down, "He doesn't eat, and he just saves it." ”

Zhu Wanqing stood up, picked up a small bowl and pulled a little, and sneered: "Uncle Li, you and your eldest brother eat, don't worry about me." ”

She still loves her daddy......

"Don't look, eat." Li Qing picked up the bun and took a bite, "He said that he wouldn't do anything to you, at most he would beat you." ”

"Uh-he-he-he......" Li Hong smiled dryly, "By the way, godfather, I bought forage, and I was afraid that it would not be hungry to support it, so I put it at the mouth of the donkey shed." ”

"Well, I'll feed it in a moment."

At the end of the hour, when Li Qing was giving the donkey a small half a bundle of hay, Zhu Qiyu came.

Li Qing and Zhu Qiyu chatted in the small courtyard for a while, and after emptying the Xiao Hengzi and Jinyi Wei Qianhu who followed up, they walked into the guest hall.

Zhu Qizhen, who was sitting anxiously waiting in the guest hall, saw the two of them come in and stood up quickly, looking at Zhu Qiyu who was like a withered body, his lips opened and closed for a long time, and he didn't say a word.

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said, "After more than ten years, don't come unharmed, big brother!" ”

is indeed unharmed, Zhu Qizhen, who is middle-aged, is full of red face, and is still a little rich, and his life has been very moist.

It's Zhu Qiyu, his hair is half white, and the whole person looks like a hundred pounds, thin and dry, the two stand together, they are not people of the same age, and they are not even of the same generation.

The difference is too great.

Zhu Qizhen was stunned for a while, and then he was sure that the person in front of him was his younger brother.

For a while, Zhu Qizhen didn't know what to say, and was stunned for a while before he said ashamedly: "Second brother, I'm sorry for you." ”

"It's all gone." Zhu Qiyu smiled, walked to the side and sat down, "My life is short, can the eldest brother intend to take over the throne?" ”

Zhu Qizhen shook his head slightly: "I'm not suitable to be the emperor, let's pass the throne to the crown prince." ”

Zhu Qiyu nodded lightly and sighed: "Jianshen is a good boy and very good, I believe he will be better than me." ”

"Deep?" Zhu Qizhen was shocked: "The prince is deep? ”

He looked at Li Qing in surprise and asked him for confirmation.

"It's him." Li Qingdao.

Zhu Qizhen was stunned, the guilt in his heart was even worse, and he was embarrassed.

Zhu Wanqing added on the side: "Daddy, Uncle Li didn't let me tell you, I'm afraid you will think too much." ”

"You know that, too?"

"Well, that old demon... The Queen Mother drips blood to recognize her relatives, I guessed it. Zhu Wanqing said.

Zhu Qizhen sighed and said with a wry smile: "Second brother, you can completely change the crown prince, maybe not at first, but later...... You have a chance, you don't have to. ”

"At first, I had that thought, too." Zhu Qiyu said with a smile, "But seeing Shen as the prince is more convincing to the public, and it is also more conducive to the court situation." ”

"Later, I also figured it out, everyone should be the same when they see Ji and Shen, they are all members of the Zhu family, why do they matter?" Zhu Qiyu smiled and asked, "Isn't it?" ”

Zhu Qizhen looked at him in a daze, with tears in his eyes, distressed and self-blamed: "If there is no such battle, how good it would be!" ”

"yes, it's a pity...... There are no ifs. Zhu Qiyu said bitterly.

"Second brother."

"Hmm..."

"I'm sorry, it's the big brother who hurt you."

"I didn't come here to listen to my eldest brother's apology," Zhu Qiyu shook his head lightly, "I am the Zhu family, I just shoulder the responsibility that should be shouldered, this is how it should be." ”

Zhu Qizhen shook his head and said: "You don't need to be like this, it's my fault that has allowed you to get to where you are today. ”

"Hey~ It's all over." Zhu Qiyu said, "At first, I complained, and later, I also rejoiced, but in the end, I realized that it is not important whether it is complaining or rejoicing, the important thing is that people in this position cannot be mediocre." ”

"I'm a useless person." Zhu Qizhen said with a wry smile.

"The eldest brother also wants to make a career, I always believe that if the eldest brother is not a little more careful, he will definitely become a generation of Mingjun." Zhu Qiyu always retained a trace of respect for his eldest brother, "Fortunately, thanks to Mr. and Yu Qian in that battle, the loss of our Ming Dynasty was not very large, and the Tatars did not fall well, and they also promoted the strategy of subduing the grassland." ”

Zhu Qiyu comforted: "The ending is always good. ”

"I ......" Zhu Qizhen was dumbfounded and burst into tears.

Seeing this, Zhu Wanqing hurriedly withdrew from the guest hall and went to find her eldest brother to save face for her father.

Li Qing looked at this picture of brotherhood, and felt a trace of comfort in his heart, the two no longer loved and killed each other as they did in history, and now the situation is not in vain for his hard work.

"You talk, I'll go out for a walk."

…

Li Qing walked around the courtyard for a while, and then moved to Xiaomazha to chat with Brother Donkey.

Time passed minute by minute, and soon it was noon, but the two of them seemed to have endless words, Xiao Hengzi came to urge him several times, but he was blocked by Li Qing.

It wasn't until more than half of noon that Zhu Qiyu walked out of the guest hall.

Li Qing put down the forage in his hand and stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, you can always decide now, right?" ”

"Well, according to what Mr. said, I will be succeeded by the crown prince after my death." Zhu Qiyu said softly, "The succession of the crown prince is more conducive to the court situation, and the eldest brother does not want to be the emperor, so there is no need for me to force anything." ”

Li Qing relaxed and nodded, "The emperor is shengming." ”

"It's not my sage, but my husband's wisdom." Zhu Qiyu smiled and said sincerely: "Sir, don't be in a hurry to leave, and assist in seeing the depth for a while, I know that this strong man is difficult, but ...... Daming still needs you. ”

"yes, okay." Li Qing agreed.

Zhu Qiyu smiled even more and said, "Let the eldest brother stay here for a little longer, my time is short, I want someone to talk to." ”

"Okay." Li Qing still agreed.

Looking at the distant dragon chariot, Li Qing sighed lightly, turned around and closed the door.

Zhu Qizhen stepped forward and asked, "Sir, you should have a way to let him stay a little longer, right?" ”

"Yes, but not for long." Li Qing sighed, "Anyway, I will work hard." ”

"So... Thank you very much. Zhu Qizhen said, "I want to stay here and accompany him on his last journey." ”

Li Qing said: "Stay in the small courtyard, don't run blindly." ”

“…… Know. Zhu Qizhen didn't dare to have a temper.

Turning around, he saw Li Hong looking at him, his face was different, and Zhu Qizhen's anger rushed upward, "Little cub, your skin is itchy, right?" ”

"What's wrong with me?"

"What are you looking at?"

"......" Li Hong was speechless, "It's not... You're too domineering, won't I just take a look at you? ”

"Less nonsense, let's duel!" Zhu Qizhen held a breath of depression in his chest, eager to release.

He didn't care whether Li Hong agreed or not, rolled up his sleeves, and came up to be ruthless.

Who did I recruit and provoke...... Li Hong couldn't do it with grief and indignation.

"Hmm~ah~" The donkey was full of interest, tilting his head to watch the play, and he didn't know who he was cheering for......
