Volume 1 The First Entry into the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 49 The Four Princes

Grandpa Sun took his talent in and out of countless courtyards in the palace, turning east and west, and walked for an hour!

Finally, Grandpa Sun brought his talent to the dormitory of the Four Princes, and Grandpa Sun bowed to the dormitory in a sharp voice and said, "Four Princes, the old slave has brought your companion reading boy." ”

I heard the voice of my grandfather Sun There was no echo in the palace, but the sound of men and women playing and flirting.

"Hehe, don't run away! Let His Highness come down and take care of you!"

"Oh, the fourth prince, there are still people out here, you go out and have a look first, and then serve His Highness after the slaves and maids bathe and spray incense!"

"No, I'm going to hurt you first before I do anything!"

Immediately after a burst of laughter and frolic in the room, Grandpa Sun frowned, and said again: "Four princes!

Hearing Grandpa Sun's voice, the house suddenly quieted down, the door opened, and a palace maid ran out in shame while sorting out her clothes, and then the male voice in the house said: "It's Grandpa Sun, come in!"

Grandpa Sun took the talent into the house, and the decoration in this room is nothing that can be described by magnificence! The entire ground is covered with deerskin, and there is no empty space! The tables and chairs in the house are all made of sandalwood and rosewood, which is elegant and quiet! As soon as you enter the house, you can smell a faint fragrance, and the light smoke emitted from the delicate small furnace is the long-cherished Longyanxiang! The aroma of this Longyanxiang can make people feel calm and calm when inhaled into the body, and it is a top-notch spice! There are also countless porcelain and jade things on the table, just one piece is enough for ordinary people to worry about for a few lifetimes!

Gonggong Sun bent slightly to the young man in front of him, and said respectfully: "Fourth prince, this child is the companion reading boy that Your Majesty found for you." ”

The fourth prince looked at Li Tian, who had been lowering his head, and said lightly: "Is it? Raise your head and let His Highness take a look." ”

Li Tiantian raised his head and looked at the four princes in front of him, and found that these four princes were not very old, they were only about a year or two older than themselves, and they were obsessed with beauty at such an age?

The fourth prince looked at Li Tian, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and said to him: "It's average, but since it is the will of your father, then you will follow His Highness in the future, there is no need to read with him, His Highness doesn't like that!"

No one could see what the expression on Grandpa Sun's face was when he lowered his head, and Grandpa Sun suddenly said: "Fourth prince, the old slave will retire first!" After speaking, the fourth prince agreed or disagreed, turned around and walked out of the room. The fourth prince was not at all annoyed by Gonggong Sun's disrespect, and said to a palace maid beside him: "You go and find him a place to live, and let the queen call me back from the palace maid just now.

The palace maid made a blessing ceremony, walked to Li Tiantian's side with small steps, and whispered, "Come with me." ”

Li Tiantian glanced at the four princes deeply, turned around and walked out with the palace maid.

The palace maid brought Li Tiantian to the door of a house, and said softly: "You will live here in the future, there are many rules in the palace, don't hang out if you have nothing to do, be careful of offending some people who can't afford to offend, we will walk on thin ice when we live in this palace." You are the companion of the Four Princes, rest as soon as possible today, and you must get up to read tomorrow!"

Li Tiantian smiled and nodded, "Thank you, sister." After the palace maid left, Li Tiantian pushed the door into his room, as soon as he entered the room, Li Tiantian looked around, and nodded with satisfaction, even if it was just a room with a reading boy, it was much stronger than in Confucianism.

Li Tian lay comfortably on the bed, and it didn't take long for the sound of sound of sleep to sound.

There was nothing to say all night, the second day, the sun hung high, just look at the height of the sun, at this time the lowest is also the time, yesterday the palace maid let the calendar talent get up and read, this has been two hours, the talent is still immersed in sleep, there is no awakening posture.

"Bang bang bang!" remembered a quick knock on the door, Li Tian sat up lazily and rubbed his eyes, muttering "Who knocked on the door so early!" After opening the door, he saw that the person who knocked on the door was the palace maid who led the way for him yesterday.

Li Tiantian was just about to say hello, but the palace maid took the first step and said, "Why are you still sleeping! Have you forgotten that I told you yesterday that you must get up and go to read to the four princes!"

"Oh, this thing, remember, what's wrong?" said Li Tiantian lightly.

"What's the matter?!Look at the sun, it's already time! The fourth prince learned that you were not studying, so he was furious and threatened to punish you! Alas, there is nothing I can do, come with me, maybe the fourth prince will spare you when his anger is gone. The palace maid said with a worried face.

Li Tiantian nodded with a smile, nodded unhurriedly and said to the palace maid: "Sister Lao leads the way." ”

Seeing this, the palace maid had to sigh, and secretly sighed in her heart that the young man had died, and walked towards the bedroom of the four princes with her talents. The two walked to the dormitory, the four princes were eating at this time, and the palace maid lowered her head and whispered: "The four princes, bring the talent." ”

As soon as the fourth prince used an ivory spoon to hold a spoonful of bird's nest, he saw the figure of Li Tiantian, his face was full of anger, and he threw the ivory spoon towards Li Tiantian. Li Tian tilted his head to dodge, and the ivory spoon shattered against the wall behind him. The fourth prince was even more annoyed, and shouted: "You are so daring! As the companion of His Royal Highness, you actually got up later than His Royal Highness! Your Highness punished you slightly, and you even dared to hide! But you are the person chosen by your father, I can't kill you! Come on, drag me down the talent, hit sixty boards, and beat you until you are disabled!"

Li Tiantian naturally did not sit still, and said loudly: "Fourth prince, do you know why Your Majesty asked me to be a companion for His Royal Highness. ”

"Oh, what's the point?" the fourth prince asked lightly.

Li Tiantian smiled indifferently, "Your Highness, forgive the ministers for being rude, although Your Highness's acting skills yesterday were exquisite, they are still full of loopholes, even I can't hide it, how can I hide that grandfather-in-law?"

The fourth prince's eyes froze, and he said coldly: "What are you talking about?" His Royal Highness doesn't understand. ”

Li Tiantian turned his head to look around, and the fourth prince said loudly: "You all go down, no one is allowed to trespass without my words!"

A group of palace maids and eunuchs walked out of the dormitory of the four princes with their heads down, and at this time, there were only two people left in the dormitory, Li Tian and the four princes.

Li Tiantian said lightly: "Your Highness, you are not the prodigal person, why do you want to pretend to be like this?"

The fourth prince did not answer Li Tian's question, but asked rhetorically, "Who are you, and what is the purpose of coming to me?"

Li's lazy intention disappeared in an instant, replaced by a kind of resolute and ruthless, he stared at the four princes tightly and asked, "Four princes, I only ask you one word, do you have the heart to fight for the king?"

My father has nine sons, the third sister and the eighth sister don't mention it, the fifth brother has the same father and mother as me, and he obeys my brother's words, plus he is obsessed with martial arts and has no intention of governing the country. The eldest brother, the second brother, and the sixth brother all have the heart to compete for the king, and among them, I am the least capable, if I hadn't pretended to be a gentleman all these years, I would have joined forces to get rid of me. The fourth prince said with a lonely face.

"There is no family affection in the emperor's family, this is really true, I don't know until now what His Majesty means by asking me to be your companion and a reading boy. Li Tiantian sighed.

"What do you mean?" the Fourth Prince asked.

"Your Majesty sees that you have the intention of competing for the throne, and Your Majesty does want to choose one of you to be the prince, but this candidate has not yet been determined, if no one helps you, I am afraid that you will have to live as a gentleman all the time, a prince of the prince and other princes compete for the throne, and it is ridiculous in the world! So let me help you, not to mention help you win the throne, at least let you have the capital to compete with other princes!"

"Hmph, do you have the ability to do this! Tell me how you saw yesterday that I was pretending to be a gentleman, and your Highness has been pretending to be unseen for so many years, and you can see it in one day?" the fourth prince asked loudly.

Li Tiantian tilted his head and looked at the meal in front of the four princes, swallowed his saliva and said, "Your Highness, can you let me talk while eating, I didn't eat much last night." ”

The four princes looked helpless, beckoned to Li Tiantian, Li Tiantian was full of joy, strode forward, and regardless of etiquette, he reached out and picked up a piece of pastry unique to Ercheng and Erzhou, and ate it in a big gulp, and when he choked, he picked up half of the bird's nest that the four princes drank as water. Li Tiantian said while eating: "When I first came with Grandpa Sun yesterday, there was no sound in His Highness's room, but when Grandpa Sun asked to see His Highness, there was a sudden laughter between His Highness and the palace maid in the dormitory, and what the palace maid said was obviously not the slightest defense, which can only prove that His Highness was doing other things when we didn't come, and when he heard Grandpa Sun's voice, His Highness instantly became a gentleman, so I guess His Highness is making a show for Grandpa Sun." As for what His Highness said, no one has seen through it all these years, maybe the other princes have not seen through it, but I'm sure Grandpa Sun has already seen through it, and he has just been cooperating with His Highness. ”

Hearing what Li Tian said, the fourth prince frowned, "Can you really help me build up the capital to compete for the throne with other princes?"

Li Tiantian was silent for a moment, "If there is no one to help other princes, I am ten percent sure; if Ye Taifu and Zhao Guogong help a certain prince, I am only fifty percent sure; if Sun Gonggong helps a certain prince, I.... At most, I am only 20% sure!"

"Gonggong Sun, he does have a lot of influence in the harem, but if you talk about the influence of the imperial court alone, how can he be stronger than Ye Taifu and Zhao Guogong?" the fourth prince was puzzled.
