Volume 10 Chapter 3 Blood Is Thicker Than Water (I)

Jinling City used to be the capital of all dynasties, so there are many palaces in this city, Emperor Wu Sun Quan built Taichu Palace at the beginning, Jin Dynasty rebuilt Jiankang Palace on the site of Taichu Palace after crossing to the south, after the addition and repair of the past dynasties, Jiankang Palace is gorgeous and luxurious, rare in the world, comparatively speaking, the imperial palace of Luoyang is just barely repaired on the old site, but it is much inferior. In addition, the Zhaoming Palace in the southeast of Jiankang Palace and Jiankang Palace are contrasting with each other across Qinhuai, which was originally commonly known as the start of construction, and the Mochou Palace on the shore of Mochou Lake is also one of the famous palaces.

After the Duke of Yue returned to Chen, in order to show his submission, most of the Jiankang Palace was vacant as the emperor's palace, and part of the palace on the periphery of the Jiankang Palace was used as the Yamen of Yousi, and the Zhaoming Palace was transformed into the Yue Guo Mansion for living, and the Beiyuan Hualin Garden of the Jiankang Palace was independent as a place for the Tang people and Jinling magnates to play. Comparatively speaking, although the Zhaoming Palace occupies an area far less than the Jiankang Palace, the fresh and beautiful place is above the Jiankang Palace, not to mention the Hualin Garden, so the Tang family's enjoyment in Jinling is not inferior to the emperor.

During this collection of treasures, the current emperor's brother Yu Wang Yang Jun came to Jinling, with his identity, it is naturally inconvenient to live in the Mochou Palace as a pavilion, and it is not good to live in the Zhaoming Palace, so it is to live in the Xianyang Palace temporarily sorted out by the palace, although few people live in these years, but the Yueguo Mansion will build the Jiankang Palace every year, so the Xianyang Palace does not seem desolate, and the trees reveal a deep connotation, which makes people feel that the name of the ancient capital of the south of the Yangtze River is worthy of it.

The sunset is low, the palace is silent, the palace maid who is a coquettish Jiangnan woman has already been dismissed, and on the brightly lit hall, in addition to the four guards in light yellow clothes, there are only two beautiful and slender palace girls standing at the bottom of the steps, which are all people who came with King Yu. The gold bricks in the hall are paved, the carved beams are painted, the light yarn is flying, the four walls are or the brocade wall clothes, or the shelves are full of shelves, and there is a Suzhou embroidered screen of the eight views of Jinling behind the golden chair in the middle of the steps. On the gold bricks at the bottom of the stairs were laid with red felt, and two opposite pear blossom long tables were placed, on which a few plates of fresh fruits were already placed. The incense burner in the corner of the temple burns sandalwood, and the fragrance overflows, making people feel calm.

Suddenly, a middle-aged guard hurriedly walked in and said loudly to the empty chair: "Report to Your Highness, the guest has arrived, but he refuses to come in, he wants His Highness to go and greet him in person." ”

Behind the screen, there was a loud laugh and said: "Su Shouyi, this is your mistake, since it is a distinguished guest, it has already been clear that this king went to greet him, but now it is not to blame this king for being rude." The voice did not stop, has walked out of a young man dressed in the costume of Prince Ming Huang, wearing two dragons to win the pearl gold crown, this young man is handsome, big ears, eyebrows are delicate and handsome, although only slowly, but there is already a faint dragon walking tiger posture, radiant and shining, people dare not force to look.

The middle-aged guard Su Shouyi subconsciously lowered his head and said, "My subordinates are guilty." ”

The young man in yellow smiled slightly, walked to the outside of the hall with his hands in his hands, and saw that in the palace with an unobstructed view, there was already a small sedan chair of green cloth that could be seen everywhere stopped in front of the steps, and the sedan chair man knelt down on one knee, not daring to look up, and next to the sedan chair, a young man in ochre clothes stood solemnly, with faint traces of sweat on his head.

The young man in yellow walked to the sedan chair, bowed slightly and said, "Emperor, this is already the inner garden of the deep palace, there will be no outsiders present, and the virtuous brother still doesn't come out, don't you really want to apologize for your brother?"

The sedan curtain moved slightly, a post slowly floated as if someone was holding it, the young man in yellow reached out to pick up the post, but the original fluttering post became heavy as soon as it fell into his hand, and a red cloud floated on the jade face of the young man in yellow, but he didn't move, took the post, and said with a smile: "Does the virtuous brother want to give his brother a dismount?"

The sedan curtain was raised, and a young man in Tsing Yi stepped out, it was Yang Ning, but his expression at the moment was as cold as ice, a pair of condensed phoenix eyes could hardly see any waves, but his eyes were as cold as a sword, only glanced at the young man in yellow lightly, and walked into the hall as if no one was around, his eyes swept away, and he picked a case without hesitation, sat on the seat behind the case, and looked around coldly before he said coldly: " Tell me, what did you invite me to do, but don't tell me that you are just thinking about old friendships, I wouldn't have believed this lie ten years ago. ”

The young man in yellow flashed a look of remembrance between his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Brother Xian still has such a straightforward temper. After saying that, he lingered on the young man's face for a long time, sat down behind the long case opposite Yang Ning, and then waved his hand lightly, and the two palace maids shook deeply, and then walked down the hall. After a short time, the two palace maids and the palace guards took their leave, leaving only the two in the palace.

Yang Ning didn't look at the table full of wine and food, but said coldly: "Third brother, there is no one now, there is one less person everywhere, if you didn't write this code sentence on the post, I wouldn't have come to see you at all, but I'm afraid that if I don't come, everyone will know my identity tomorrow, I already have a lot of trouble now, but I don't want to cause more trouble." ”

The young man in yellow smiled bitterly: "It's not that my brother doesn't want to admit the identity of the ninth brother, but it's a pity that as long as I say a few words, my henchmen and guards don't want to save their lives, since the ninth brother left Luoyang that day, he didn't even show up at the funeral of his father and the emperor's concubine, that is, he was already ruthless, if he was not allowed, how could he dare to reveal the identity and whereabouts of the ninth brother." Inviting the ninth brother to come today, one is to recount the brotherhood, and the other is to have a word of persuasion, the ninth brother said that I am hypocritical, or that I am too much to do, there are some things, for the brother really can't sit idly by. ”

Yang Ning was silent, as if he hadn't heard it, the young man in yellow sighed: "Ninth brother, what a noble background you are, there is no second person in this world who can compare with you, even if you can't inherit the unification, as long as you save three points of thought, you are the future optimus pillar of my royal family, how arrogant is the sixth uncle, and once said that the ninth brother, your future achievements will definitely surpass him, ninth brother, as long as you are willing, the future position of the great sect is yours, under one person, above ten thousand, is this kind of glory really not tempted?"

Yang Ning was cold, a look of ridicule flashed in his eyes, and said: "The third brother said that he laughed, although I didn't leave Qifeng Palace back then, but I had also heard some things, my father was quite indifferent to other princes and princesses on weekdays, but he was very important to the third brother, although his uncle was obsessed with swordsmanship, he had long been dedicated to the Buddha, if it wasn't for the third brother's repeated invitations, he would not have come to Qifeng Palace to compete with the master." My mother once said to my master in the past, among the princes, only the third brother has the posture of the emperor, but the time has not come, only to hibernate can't afford it, once the wind and clouds change, it will definitely break the ground, although I didn't understand it at the time, but now I understand, what is the posture of the emperor, as soon as we meet, the third brother will be tempted by wealth and nobility, is this the emperor's mind?"

A cold light flashed in the eyes of the young man in yellow, but he said: "Don't be surprised by the ninth brother, because the brother knows that the virtuous brother does not attach importance to glory and wealth, if you really want these, the ninth brother can get the wealth as long as he raises his arms to Youji, but he can't rest assured that the ninth brother doesn't love wealth and wealth, doesn't he love fame? Although the position of the Demon Emperor is respected, it is after all pointed out by Qianfu, Miss Qingping, the sword is Lan Xinhui, and now she is also blinded by a murderous name, as a prince, why should he be so aggrieved, it is better to justifiably dominate the world, even if he behaves rebelliously, no one dares to ask, and please consider the ninth brother again, don't mislead others and yourself. After that, he raised his glass and said: "For my brother, I will do it first for respect, if the ninth brother is willing to agree to be my brother's proposal, please drink this cup to the fullest." ”

Yang Ning looked coldly at the young man in yellow and drank the wine in the cup, the cold light in his eyes became more and more fierce, and he said lightly: "The third brother may not have said it all, if I accept the advice of the third brother, it is best to listen to the words of the third brother, and persuade the grandfather and the righteous brother to give up revenge, if the righteous brother refuses, you might as well fight back to Fan Yang with the support of the third brother, isn't it?"

The young man in yellow smiled slightly, and said: "So I don't dare to ask for it, but this point can naturally be discussed in the long run, some stubborn diseases are better to eradicate than to forbear, Luo Chengyu, the son of King Yan, with the old kindness and righteousness of the imperial concubine, not only took away the status and glory of the ninth brother, but also ambitious, seeking a big position, can be described as Sima Zhao's heart, passers-by know. Even if the ninth brother doesn't like to be a brother, he should know the truth that blood is thicker than water, once Luo Chengyu gets his wish, not to mention that my Yang family is gone, and the temple is not guaranteed, even the mother and grandfather of the ninth brother may not have a good end. In any case, Luo Chengyu is surnamed Luo, and what he wants to worship is his biological parents and Luo's ancestors, not the Xu family and Lingtang who are not related by blood, is this the truth that the ninth brother said?"

Yang Ning was silent, the words of the young man in yellow were quite shallow, he could hear it clearly, and every sentence was full of truth, the difference between intimacy and alienation, blood was thicker than water, although he was ignorant in the past, but he had already felt it before seeing this young man in yellow, although he only felt indifferent and ruthless when he thought of this person, but somehow, it was still because of that hidden language that was not actually a threat and persuasion, just because that sentence was chanted to himself when he first met the third brother in the past, and that's it。 It's just that it doesn't convince him to go along with it. After thinking about it, Yang Ning shook his head coldly and said: "I don't care about your competition for hegemony, and you don't have to worry about my reputation, as long as you don't tell people that Xu Zijing is Yang Ning, anyway, except for you, no one else may remember me." If nothing else, I'm leaving. ”

As soon as the words fell, Yang Ning suddenly felt a feeling of exhaustion surging from the bottom of his heart, and he actually felt drowsy, he was shocked, his hands were on the pear blossom case, and he wanted to get up, but after a slight movement, he felt that his knees were weak, and he couldn't help but say coldly: "Third brother, you actually poisoned me, isn't this your so-called blood thicker than water?"

Personally, I highly recommend the book that goes with the flow)
