Chapter 368

Today, Emperor Jianwu, who is very happy with the dragon's heart, stroked his beard. Xiao Tongqing, the prince of Tong'an, said with a smile: "Lao Jiu, it's better for you to set up a family banquet to gather all the people of Xiao's family together

"When my younger brother was in the northeast, he often thought of the days when he was a child playing around with his fourth brother and his fourth sister-in-law," Xiao Tongqing said with a smile. "At that time, he thought that as long as he was with his fourth brother and his fourth sister-in-law, I would have nothing to fear."

"Well? What do you mean by that now seems to scare you? " Looking at his younger brother, who was brought up by his own hands like a son, Jianwu emperor was more tolerant to him than others. In front of him, it was not the majesty of the emperor but the majesty of his elder brother.

"I used to be ignorant, so I'm not afraid of anything," said Xiao Tongqing, with a young face, laughing with emperor Jianwu. "Now I'm staying in the northeast, and I know more and more that it's not easy for my fourth brother to govern the world, so I'm starting to camp, for fear that my reason will drag down my fourth brother..."

Listening to Xiao Tongqing's cry of "four brothers", Emperor Jianwu not only didn't feel disgusted, but felt that it was especially useful.

He also looked at Xiao Tongqing with a happy face and said, "my old nine has really grown up."

Xiao Tongqing laughed and showed his big white teeth as a child: "it's just that the older I get, the more I miss the time when my family used to be together. I dare to have this proposal."

When Emperor Jianwu listened to his "heart to heart" speech, he was even more in a good mood, and his whole face was red and full of spirit.

Just at this time, Xiao Ruixuan went to pick up Jiang Wan's Jianyu and went to Yonghe palace. He was very eager to meet her. He took Jiang Wan's hand and helped her down.

Emperor Jianwu and Xiao Tongqing looked at each other and laughed when they saw this scene through the glazed windows.

"There's something interesting about this kid of five brothers." Xiao Tongqing stood at the windowsill, looking at Xiao Ruixuan and Jiang Wan, who came hand in hand, and said with a smile, "I heard rumors about his wife before, but I thought he would be lonely for life

What about that

"No," emperor Jianwu looked at Xiao Ruixuan and Jiang Wan like an ordinary elder. "Later, Princess Cui told me that those people were not lucky enough to be our royal daughter-in-law. Now it seems that she is right."

"Did your wife say such a thing?" Xiao Tongqing said with a surprised smile, "then I'm going to meet this blessed niece and daughter-in-law for a while."

With that, he retired from Jianwu emperor and walked out of Yonghe hall with a smile.

Xiao Ruixuan took Jiang Wan by the hand, lowered her head and quietly told her to be careful of the stone slabs under her feet. Then she asked about the celebration in Kunning Palace today.

"It was OK before, but later I knelt down and worshiped a little more, so I felt a little uncomfortable. Fortunately, xiaoluzi came with Jianyu..." Jiang Wan held Xiao Ruixuan's hand and walked all the way. After resting on Jianyu for a period of time, the feeling of abdominal depression had disappeared.

The couple bowed their heads and said their own words, walking forward, right in the middle of the road

When I wanted to go up the stone steps in front of the hall, I heard someone say with a smile: "what a pair of golden children and beautiful girls. Even if I look at them, I feel envious."

As soon as Jiang Wan heard the voice, she tightened her face. She couldn't help but increase her strength and hold Xiao Ruixuan's hand.

Xiao Ruixuan quietly took her hand, indicating that she didn't have to be nervous, then raised her head and said with a smile, "Uncle Jiuhuang, you are not so scary."

Xiao Tongqing also stood on the stone steps, put on a posture that had nothing to do with me, and said with a smile, "I've been standing here all the time. It's you two who kiss me. I didn't see it." Compared with Princess Anqin, whom she had never met before, Jiang Wan did not give her little greetings.

It was with the support of the ninth emperor's uncle that Jiang Yi helped Xiao Rong to the throne of God and became the queen Regent.

The ninth emperor's uncle naturally became the Regent. He often went in and out of the Imperial Palace, and made a fuss with Jiang Yi.

Moreover, when he was in power with Jiang Yi, he was more powerful than today

The emperor is also vicious and cruel, which is not as easy to get along with as he shows now.

Xiao Tongqing has been operating in Northeast China for many years, but his experience can't tell Jiang Wan's resistance.

Xiao Ruixuan, who was born again like Jiang Wan, naturally knows the true face of the Nine Emperor uncle. Therefore, he will spare no effort to investigate the matters related to Prince an these days, and even secretly target Prince an, rob his mine and move his people.

"Uncle Jiuhuang, my wife has always been timid and has never seen much of the world." Xiao Ruixuan also found an excuse to excuse Jiang Wan. "When the emperor summoned her, she would be so nervous that she didn't know what to do, and asked Uncle Jiuhuang not to blame."

Before Xiao Tongqing was in Northeast China, he heard that the emperor pointed out an unreliable marriage for his nephew who had been ill in the capital since he was a child. At that time, when he received the news, he still wondered how worried the fourth brother was about the fifth brother? He not only brought his son to the capital to support him, but also pointed out a small family's concubine as his wife.

He also sighed in the heart, so many years, four brothers to five brothers

I'm still not at ease.

It is said that a good woman can thrive for three generations.

But in front of her, the woman who looked timid didn't look like three generations.

He was even more glad that he was only the youngest son of emperor Wenzong and that his fourth brother was unprepared for him.

But at the thought of his life experience, Xiao Tongqing's face changed. His hand in his sleeve also clenched into a fist.

He is the youngest son of emperor Wenzong.

When he was born, almost all of his brothers had grown up. When he was under one year old, Emperor Wenzong died. His mother and concubine could not bear the lonely life in the palace and twisted their necks with bowstring to follow his father.

And after the fourth brother succeeded to the throne, he was raised by his side like a son.

Like a prince, he grew up carefree in the palace walls until he went to the northeast to become a vassal. He also knew nothing about what had happened in the palace before.

But later, a man who claimed to be an old palace man went all the way to find his vassal area. When he saw him, he knocked his head full of blood and told him the truth that he had been buried in the palace for many years.

It turns out that his mother's wife did not hang herself at all, but was killed by the empress Guo with a bow string.

As for why empress Guo wanted to kill his mother's concubine, it was all because the fourth elder brother saw that his mother's concubine was young and beautiful, and took possession of it during the period of national filial piety.

Empress Guo was worried that "the son occupied his father's concubine" would damage the reputation of emperor Jianwu, so she ordered people to hang his mother and concubine with bowstring, and claimed that his mother and concubine died for his father.

The emperor Jianwu, who was informed of this, was naturally angry. However, in the face of empress Guo's righteous words, he could not be refuted, so he had to be brought up by the imperial concubine Tong, who was still in her infancy.
