The news that the third prince Shen left the city and fled to Lancheng spread to the stable. While everyone was stunned and embarrassed, Shen Duyi was very calm and calm.

"Father, the border city is the border fortress of my country, and the third child abandoned the city and fled just because of a few mice. For my country, it is simply a great shame. ”

Above the Jinluan Hall, the eldest prince Shen Yao stood in the middle, his tone was aggressive and ridiculous. In the end, even the corners of his mouth couldn't help but start to rise.

thinks that he, the third brother, has been quite favored since he was a child. Silent and cautious. has always been a big problem for him.

The father favored the third and seventh children, if he was not the eldest son of the emperor, I am afraid that he would not be able to earn today's status. The last time he looked for the dragon vein, he was already deflated, but fortunately, in the end, the third child didn't seem to find it, so this matter was over.

This time, the father sent the third child to garrison the border city, making it clear that he would give him the opportunity to make meritorious contributions. The seventh child will not talk about it for the time being, the third child does have some ability, if they return with a big victory, how can he still have his share in the throne?

For this reason, he has played many times, hoping that his father can also let him go to the border city to help. Helplessly, the old thing is very stubborn, saying that he can't raise the morale of others to destroy his prestige, and it is enough to have two princes stationed in the border city.

Phew! It's a lie!

It's good now, God help me. Although Shen Yao was not in the border city, he paid close attention to his every move in the border city in private. The Snow Country army pressed the border, and Su Moxie personally led the army. The next night, every house in the border city was plagued by rats, and a group of rats appeared out of nowhere, causing panic in people's hearts.

The third child had no choice but to order everyone to retreat and abandon the city. He didn't see it with his own eyes, so he didn't know what was so terrible about some rats, but he knew the third child's ability, and if he could make the third child make the decision to abandon the city, the situation must indeed be more serious.

However, abandoning the city with him and Guan Laosan like this is tantamount to ruining the morale of the army and ruining the trust of his father in him. This time, he wanted to see how the old man should cover.

"Father, the border city is not big, but it is not small. The territory of my Ming country is rich land, and I want to protect General Feng with his life, at such an age, he still swears to resist to the death, that is, to defend my land of Ming from outsiders. But now, the third child just gave the border city to others for nothing, what is his intention?"

"yes. "The henchmen of the Great Prince's faction stood up at the right time and continued to instigate," Old General Feng was martyred, his heart can be learned, and the sun and the moon can be expressed. Everyone knows that the old general Feng died in the border city, and he tried his best to protect the place, so he sent it out to the third prince, thinking that the old general would be cold in the sky. ”

"Hmph. The people on the side of the third prince Shen Li naturally sneered and disdained. Help stand up and maintain.

"Your Majesty, you know the qualifications of the third prince best, to this day, he has done a thing that does not know how to measure? He respects the summer queen, cares for his brother, after returning from Xuanwu Mountain, he heard that the seventh prince went to the border city, so he immediately asked for his life and rushed over. Although the abandonment of the city is a bit hasty, it is also for the sake of the people, which shows that the three princes are kind-hearted and hard-working. Now the two princes have retreated to Lancheng, still to protect their families and defend the country. Your Majesty must not blame the three princes for this incident, and please think twice. ”

"Defend the country?"

Shen Yao sneered. "The enemy did not move, not a single soldier was wounded. A few mice were used, and the third child was frightened to give a city to others, and dismissed the people in the border city overnight and fled with their families. Dare to ask Master Li, which family is this to protect, and whose country is it defending?"

"This ......"

The eldest prince has always been imposing, and looking at the entire court, only the three princes can compete with it. And now the third prince is far away in Lancheng, and he has not reported the abandonment of the city. At this moment, the ministers who defended him did not know how to justify it, so they could only retreat to the side and pray silently in their hearts.

"Father, the emperor, the sons have the courage to ask for their lives, and the third and seventh elders will be summoned back by the holy decree. Send Erchen to garrison Lancheng, and Erchen dares to promise you with his life that he will behead those who rebel to the sword. Unless the retainers die, they will never be allowed to set foot in Lancheng for half a step!"

Shen Yao stood with his hands over, and the henchmen behind him also asked for their lives. Shen Duyi sat on the dragon chair and closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, knowing his eldest son's ambition and unwillingness. He had blocked it a few times before, but this time the third child made the matter too big, and he couldn't cover it partially, and if he didn't agree, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to say it.

"Well, since you've asked for it again and again, let's go. The third and seventh will not be held accountable for the time being, and they should be given a chance to make a difference. Both of them are your younger brothers, and when you go, you should assist them in their battles, and there must be no conflict. Do you understand?"

Shen Yao lowered his eyes, pursed his lips, and suppressed the unwillingness in his heart. It doesn't matter, as long as he can pass, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and when the time comes, he can frame him as much as he wants. The last time he lost his hand in that ghost place in Xuanwu Mountain, this time, he wouldn't let Shen Li come back alive if he said anything!

"Erchen understands!"

*

Not long after Shen Li settled down in Lancheng, he received the news that his father had sent Shen Yao to assist. He sneered in his heart, what kind of help, it would be good not to make trouble for him.

The boss is ruthless and has long regarded him as a thorn in his side. The last time I failed to get rid of him in Xuanwu Mountain, this time I finally couldn't help it, did I find an excuse to come over?

"Third brother, do you say that the father is confused with us? How can we let the eldest brother come over? When he comes like this, do you think we should deal with Su Moxie, or deal with him first?"

Shen Yan stomped his feet beside Shen Li anxiously, but Shen Li was amused by his words.

"Ayan, didn't you tell me that your own brother, why bother killing each other? Why now, thinking about helping the third brother deal with your eldest brother?"

"It's not like I didn't know his true face before!"

Shen Yan clenched his hands into fists, and his knuckles clicked. "Third brother, I haven't forgotten the time in the Xuanwu Mountain grove. He led men to besiege us, without the slightest affection. In order to save Mu Yan, you also took an arrow from him. Later, thanks to the encounter with the psychic nine-tailed fox, he was able to escape. It's a pity ......"

By the end, the tone was getting weaker and weaker. Having a name is still a pain in the hearts of the two brothers. I didn't mean to mention it, but after I said it, my thoughts drifted to the past, causing a sigh and sigh.

"Third brother, this time I won't leave, let alone escape. The border city has already been conceded, and I will not abandon anything Arashijo says. The wood is still watching me from the sky, and I have to earn a good face for myself so that she can be proud of me. So no matter who stops me this time, I won't show mercy. ”

Seeing the burning gaze in Shen Yan's eyes, Shen Li couldn't help but reach out and pat him on the shoulder, hooking his lips and smiling.

"Hmm. None of us are leaving.
