Chang'an City, East Palace --
"big brother!"
Yuan Ji sat next to the prince Jiancheng, his fists raised high and he cried out. The prince sat at the head of the table and frowned at him. His expression was not happy, and his eyes were vaguely disgusted: "do you think you are still a child? How to pretend? Is it shameful to be so bold? "
Yuanji looked up at the prince and muttered, "if you look at other people, you will naturally disdain it. However, to your eldest brother, it's just natural. It's not shameful to do what you want. If you say shame It's about him, not about it. "
And then he bowed his head in shame.
Jiancheng gazed at him for a long time with an unpredictable look. He saw Yuanji's head drooping more and more, and his face was filled with remorse and shame. The crown prince sighed slightly and said, "well, your original intention is also for the fool's brother, so let's not mention it!"
Yuanji was immediately overjoyed and said, "thank you for your generosity. I'll take it as a warning. I'll be more careful in the future."
Jiancheng sighed again and said, "who knows Erlang has the disorder of stomach and heart!"
Yuanji was also full of regret, nodded: "that is, otherwise, it must have been a great event, he was lucky!"
Lucky?!
Jiancheng was stunned. He looked up at the top with an unpredictable expression and a hesitant tone: "Sanhu, isn't it that destiny is really protecting Erlang? Since ancient times, the only one who has been poisoned by arsenic is Erlang Why are you safe? "
Li Yuanji was stunned and said in a rude voice: "how can elder brother increase the ambition of others and destroy his own prestige? The eldest brother is the eldest son when his father is the Duke of Tang Dynasty. It is a matter of heaven and earth for the father to call the emperor the crown prince. Even if there is a destiny, it should be in the eldest brother. Erlang is the second son. What is the saying of destiny? "
As soon as he heard this, he nodded slowly: "yes, Sanhu, you are right. It's the fool who is stunned. The foolish brother is both a legitimate and a senior citizen. He lives in the east palace for the crown prince. It's natural and natural for me to be the destiny of the emperor! "
"That's it!"
The two talked happily and were as good as ever. The crown prince immediately ordered people to prepare music, dance, wine and food, drink with Yuanji, and enjoy singing and dancing.
The two brothers watched the song and dance while drinking and playing. After three rounds of drinking, Yuanji seemed to be drunk. He sat down beside the prince and said with slightly red eyes: "little brother, you are planning for the eldest brother. Unexpectedly, Erlang has a disorder of stomach and mind, which leads to the leakage of secrets and the failure. I deserve to be demoted to the rank of the younger brother. However, you are scolded by your father, younger brother A guilty heart makes a bad conscience. "
The prince patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "well, between you and my brothers, why should we say that? I am the eldest brother and you are the younger brother. The so-called elder brother is like a father, but the fool doesn't take care of you. Why should I? The past is over. Don't mention it again. "
"Big brother!"
Yuanji seemed to be very moved. His eyes were red. He immediately began to cry, holding his elder brother's leg and wailing: "since I was a child, my mother and my father did not like me. Only the eldest brother has been treating me like a brother like a father. The younger brother always thinks of giving me something back, but he has never received any reward. Originally, I wanted to solve my brother's worries. But I didn't know that I was in a bad luck! Little brother My younger brother often thinks about his own reasons, implicating the elder brother Then I'm sorry for my big brother
The prince laughed kindly and patted him on the back as if he was a child. He said in a soft voice: "OK, OK, don't cry again. Don't be a daughter at this age. It's ugly! I know you, and I don't blame you. "
Yuanji cried: "I know that my eldest brother is generous and broad-minded. But I really feel sorry for the kindness of my elder brother. These days, I have been locked in the government to reflect on myself and think again and again. The elder brother treats me leniently and treats my younger brother well. I don't want to say that my father has cut off the king. Even if I am demoted to be a common man, I should advise the elder brother one or two. "
When the prince saw that he was crying bitterly, his words were sincere. He could not help but feel warm in his heart. He pulled him up and the two brothers sat side by side. The prince asked, "what do you want to say to the foolish brother? Do you have any hesitation?"
"Here it is."
Yuan Ji answered, but he didn't pay attention to it. He lifted up his sleeve and wiped his face. His elder brother's reproachful eyes aroused him. Jiancheng immediately took out his handkerchief and wiped his face.
After Yuanji wiped away the tears on his face, he looked at his elder brother in spite of his crimson eyes, and asked in a low voice, "elder brother, have you heard the most popular rumor in Beijing recently?"
Not satisfied with the completion of the project, he immediately said: "within the capital, rumors change very quickly, so there is no need to take it seriously."
Yuanji said in a hurry: "what if there is a rumor about soldiers suffering? You don't have to take it seriously? "
The prince understood: "Sanhu, are you saying that the Turks will attack Chang'an this summer?"
Li Yuanji immediately nodded and said, "this is what I said!"
Prince Jiancheng said calmly: "nothing. Every summer solstice, Turks will invade the south. It's not strange to come back this year. If you don't come, it's weird. There is no need to worry about it. It is hateful that the proposal to move the capital on that day was blocked by Erlang and Xue lang. otherwise, my father had already moved. If we could move the capital, why should we have the trouble today? The court will be able to free up energy and materials, and slowly plan to annihilate the Turks. "Li Yuanji, seeing that his elder brother has not yet responded, is still talking about the matter of moving the capital. He even says, "elder brother, let's not mention the past. Don't you think this rumor is strange?"
Jiancheng frowned, and he was not really a pustule. Yuanji had already reminded him that he finally reacted and asked hesitantly, "Yuanji, do you mean Erlang? "
Li Yuanji nodded heavily and said, "if there are Turks invading the south, who is the commander?"
The prince was silent. Yuanji asked himself, "Erlang is also!"
The prince nodded. Li Yuanji continued: "every year the Turks have come, Erlang has been in charge of Hufu every year, commanding the heavy troops to resist the Turks' southward March. Let alone anything else, Erlang can't shirk the suspicion of self-respect of the bandits!"
The prince nodded again, much heavier than the strength just now. His eyes twinkled and his expression was unpredictable. Yuanji then said, "among our brothers, the eldest brother lives in the first place, and he is also the crown prince. His father relies on him for his virtue and conduct. However, due to the Turks, they had to use Erlang again and again, so that they were in a high position to raise tigers. My elder brother and I are sons of man. We should share our father's worries. My younger brother thought of a bowl of arsenic wine to relieve the worries of my father and my elder brother, but I failed. Hum, the rumors of Turkic invasion, but only after Erlang detoxification, so Don't you have any idea? "
The prince's body sat upright and his expression was dignified. Seeing this, Li Yuanji urged again and again: "Sanhu, do you mean Rumor or is it that Erlang ordered people to spread, and want to claim military power? "
Li Yuanji snorted and said, "was it spread by Erlang The younger brother has no evidence, so it's hard to say. However, Erlang wants military power and plans for the elder brother, but he can't achieve it. "
The crown prince pondered for a while and said: "if you want to seize Erlang's military power, there is no better way to choose another general as commander-in-chief. However, when facing Turks both inside and outside the government, Erlang is really the winner."
Li Yuanji is a hum again, disobedient way: "elder brother has been long Erlang ambition, destroy his own prestige! My younger brother thinks that the reason why Erlang can win again and again against Turks is not Erlang's merit, but the reason why Erlang's powerful generals are like clouds. "
The prince's eyes were fixed on his thoughts. Li Yuanji said: "big brother, let's count them. Are Yuchi Gong and Qin Qiong under Erlang the world's most powerful generals?"
The prince nodded slowly: "Wei Chi Jingde and Qin Shubao Indeed, they were heroes and heroes at that time
Li Yuanji immediately said: "so, if the eldest brother suggests to his father, he should choose another general as commander-in-chief, and assign Wei Chi and Qin Qiong as vice generals to resist the Turks' southward expedition Or is it difficult? Is it more difficult than to keep raising Erlang? "
The prince nodded slowly and heavily: "three nonsense is reasonable! Thank you so much for planning for me. You know what you mean
Li Yuanji immediately laughed and arched his hand and said, "I dare not bear the thanks of my eldest brother. I have shown kindness to me. What I have done is not enough to repay one or two of my elder brother's kindness. It is a matter of duty."
Jiancheng clapped him on the shoulder and said, "thank you. You've been planning for me all the time. I know it in my heart, and I can rest assured that you will live up to you today, and you will certainly not do so in the future."
Li Yuanji said: "I help the elder brother not for these."
Jiancheng smiles: "I know."
