Where there are people, there are strife, and this sentence is also applicable in the court!

The eldest prince and his army had arrived outside the capital that night, but they were still stationed outside for one night, and only at dawn did they press the prisoners into the city.

As soon as he entered the city, the eldest prince saw an elegant man in front of him, dressed in a luxurious golden suit and with several guards, waiting on the side of the road. When the man saw the eldest prince enter the city, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he folded his hands and saluted.

"Welcome my brother back to Beijing, my little brother has been waiting for a long time!"

The eldest prince and Wen Zhao were a little surprised when they looked at the visitor.

"Second Emperor.... No, it should be His Royal Highness the Prince!" Wen took care of the prince and saluted the prince in front of him, and he was not suitable to ride a horse next to him, so he dismounted and saluted the prince.

"His Royal Highness the Prince!" the eldest prince shouted indifferently, but he didn't dismount, just looked condescendingly at his brother who looked like him, "How did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince think of coming to greet him?"

The crown prince looked at the eldest prince who listened straight on the horse's back, and seemed to feel that there was a kind of momentum pressing from him without anger!

"I just miss my brother!" The essence in the prince's eyes flashed, and he smiled calmly, "The younger brother has prepared some food in the mansion, and I want to invite my brother to the mansion to catch up, I don't know if it's okay?"

"Forget it!" the eldest prince refused, "I'm tired, I'm going to go back to rest after bringing people to the criminal department, and I'll talk about it later if there is anything to do!"

The crown prince didn't smile, he raised his head and looked directly at the eldest prince, and the rising sun shone on his eyes, making him have to squint.

"The younger brother is sincerely invited, can the eldest brother give face?"

"Then you can also give me a face!" the eldest prince accentuated his tone, "Get out of the way!"

The atmosphere at the scene couldn't help but be embarrassed, Wen looked at the eldest prince who had always been gentle, but he didn't expect him to be so hard!

The prince really didn't expect that he would be slapped in the face like this, which made it difficult for his smile to maintain. He lowered his head, missing the Great Prince's gaze, and then raised his head again and resumed his modest smile.

"Since my brother is tired, then the younger brother won't bother!" The prince took the guards to get out of the way, and then looked at the eldest prince and saluted, "Tomorrow night, the father and the emperor will hold a banquet to entertain the ministers, you and I will get together again!"

The eldest prince didn't speak again, completely ignoring the prince and leaving.

“...... His Royal Highness the Prince, let's go first!" The eldest prince dared to ignore him, but Wen Zhao couldn't ignore him, so he hurriedly said goodbye to the prince, got on his horse and chased after him.

In place, the crown prince looked at the eldest prince who had walked away, the smile on his face gradually converged, his eyes became gloomy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Great Prince!" Wen Zhao rode his horse and ran two steps to catch up with the person, and couldn't help but ask, "Why did you ignore the prince and leave like this?"

The eldest prince looked ahead, and his tone was casual: "He's not qualified enough!"

This answer surprised Wen Zhao: "Then why don't you want to fight for the crown prince?"

"Since this is my father's decision, I accept it!" the eldest prince snorted coldly, "It's just that I haven't seen this brother for many years, but I didn't expect him to be so naïve!"

"Where's the naivety?"

"I just got the crown prince, and I want to show off in front of me at the first time, isn't this naïve?" The eldest prince was a little disappointed in his brother, "He doesn't want to think about it, if he has the support of his father, what is his ability to be this prince?!"

He has no strength, no background, and no power! What qualifications does he have to show off with me? He just became the crown prince and floated, if I don't beat him well, I will have to wait for him to become the emperor?

I hope that my brother can be a little more aggressive, and can work harder on the crown prince, so that I can be impressed by him!"

Wen Zhao said worriedly: "But I'm afraid the prince won't understand His Highness's kindness?"

"He's not a prince to me, why should I let him understand?" The eldest prince didn't take this prince in his eyes at all, "as long as he can learn from the pain and be himself!"

If you treat him like this, will he let you go when he ascends the throne in the future?

Wen Zhao wanted to speak and stopped, but looking at the eldest prince's indifferent expression, his worried words were not spoken after all.

After handing over Sun Lu, a rebel who defended Shankang City, to the military department, Wen Zhao said goodbye to the eldest prince and returned to Wen's mansion.

Entering the door, several subordinates saw Wen Zhao coming back, and hurriedly called out to Gongzi.

Wen Zhao asked, "Where is my father?"

"The adults haven't gotten up in the room yet!"

"Good!"

After getting the news from his father, Wen Zhao walked through the main hall and found Wen Tianyang's room.

"Dad, I'm back! I have something to talk to you about!"

Wen Zhao kept knocking on the door, knocking and shouting for the door to open inside.

Wen Tianyang also seemed to be woken up by Wen Zhao, and his dim voice was a little annoyed, and he shouted outside: "Don't knock, the door is not closed, come in by yourself!"

Wen Zhao heard this, pushed the door in, and saw that Wen Tianyang was still lying on the bed, and at this time he made a few sleepy calls.

"You didn't even take off your armor when you came back, why are you so flustered?" Wen Tianyang glanced at Wen Zhao and continued to lie on the bed, "Looking at you like that, you should know the news of the prince, right?"

"The holy decree of 800 li was sent to the eldest prince urgently, how could I not know! And as soon as he entered the city this morning, the crown prince blocked the gate of the city!" Wen Zhao hurriedly asked, "What happened to the court? Why did I make the crown prince after going out with the eldest prince for a few days?"

"The eldest prince has helped the emperor to run the government for several years, but the emperor has not appointed him as the crown prince for a long time, and I was a little uneasy at that time. Wen Tianyang said slowly, "Sure enough, the emperor has another choice in his heart!"

Wen Zhao said anxiously: "Then Dad, why are you not in a hurry at all? Aren't you afraid that the crown prince will ascend the throne and liquidate us in the future? Or do you have a backhand?"

"What's the use of being anxious, I've seen it!" Wen Tianyang sat up indifferently and asked Wen Zhao to pour him a cup of tea, so Wen Zhao went to get the teapot and cup.

After drinking tea, Wen Tianyang continued, "Sitting in my position, there are people watching every move, even if you want to escape, you can't escape! Besides, the eldest prince is so powerful now, it is still unknown whether the crown prince can successfully ascend the throne! Maybe we can't wait for the worst!"

Wen Zhao sighed: "I'm afraid I won't have that chance!"

"Why?"

"When I came back, I tested the attitude of the eldest prince, who knew that he had no resentment towards the emperor at all, and was even willing to give way!" Wen Zhao grabbed the teapot in his hand so that his whole hand turned white!

"But when I entered the city this morning, the eldest prince didn't give the prince face at all, I'm afraid that the prince will be resentful because of this, and he wants to eradicate the eldest prince!"

Wen Tianyang didn't care: "The eldest prince has a heavy army, and the crown prince will rely on him even if he ascends the throne! Besides, where does the prince have the strength to eradicate the eldest prince?"

"Already!"

Wen Zhao sighed and took out a holy decree from his arms: "The first holy decree is to inform the prince of the candidate, this is the second one. The eldest prince was not here at that time, so I made the decision to hide it myself, Dad, take a look!"

"Nonsense! Why do you have to carry the holy decree of the Great Prince?"

Wen Tianyang frowned, now that their family is all dependent on the eldest prince, his son's behavior will be bad if the eldest prince is dissatisfied.

However, after he read the holy decree, the expression on his face became extremely ugly, and he muttered: "How is this possible?!Why is the emperor so kind to our Wen family!"

Wen looked at Wen Tianyang and said with a wry smile: "According to the holy decree, the emperor wants the eldest prince to divide the tiger talisman into two, and this half will be handed over to me!"

Dad, you can't be unclear, this tiger talisman looks good, but it is a chopping knife for our Wen family!

took this half of the tiger talisman, which seemed to clamp down on the eldest prince and separate his forces. But on the other hand, it is for us to have a gap with the Great Prince, and to bring out our Wen family! This tiger talisman looks beautiful, but among the 800,000 forbidden troops, all the prestige is the Great Prince, where can we command?!

When the crown prince ascends the throne, without the support of the eldest prince, we will not be able to escape death!"

“...... Don't say it!" Wen Tianyang closed his eyes in despair, and threw the holy decree in his hand to Wen Zhao, "Don't you want to take this half of the tiger talisman and go to the prince?"

Wen Zhao nodded: "Dad still understands me! As long as we take this half of the tiger talisman and hand it to the prince, there is no way to live!"

"Don't think about it, it's also a dead end!" Wen Tianyang didn't think about it, and waved his hand to let Wen Zhao die.

"Why?"

"With a history of betraying the eldest prince, do you think the crown prince will not worry about us betraying him?" Wen Tianyang lay back on the bed in despair, "Most of the ministers in the court and the central government are falling to the eldest prince, so the first thing the prince must do when he ascends the throne must be to purge the Qing dynasty and cultivate a team that he can trust!

In this game, both horizontal and vertical are mortal!"

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, then there's only one way!" Wen Zhao reopened the holy decree, looked at the tiger talisman on it, and his eyes revealed a fierce light, "Rebel!"

"Nonsense!"

Wen Tianyang jumped up, pointed at Wen Zhao's nose and scolded: "My Wen family has been dedicated to the emperor for decades, loyal and loyal to my duties! Even if I die, I will not think of rebellion! You are also dead this heart, I don't want to hear these words a second time!"

"But ......"

"Get out!" Wen Tianyang said angrily, "Go back to the house and reflect on yourself, you are embarrassed to say such a big rebellion!"

“...... Retire the child!"

Wen Zhao was helpless, and in the face of Wen Tianyang, who couldn't listen to his words, he could only retire first, so that this loyal minister could think about it.

The door was re-closed by Wen Zhao from the outside, leaving Wen Tianyang alone in the room. He lay down on the bed again, covering his eyes with his hands, but the tears kept flowing......

"It's the most ruthless emperor's family!"

Wen Tian raised his head to the sky in tears: "Your Majesty, don't you really leave a way for our Wen family to live?!"

No one heard the old man's grief and indignation, and the room was so cold that it chilled his heart......
