Chapter 189 Brothers
The next day, Huilan dressed up in a fairy-like and noble Tsinghua University and accompanied Li Chengze to attend the banquet at the prince's mansion.
After riding the carriage all the way to the Grand Prince's mansion, Li Chengze jumped out of the car first and helped Huilan get out of the car. The butler had already received him personally at the door.
The eldest prince came quickly from the second door, hugged Li Chengze and patted him on the back, laughing heartily, "It's rare to invite our prince. Today, brother has a good wine, so you have to accompany me."
have a drink."
The prince's appearance is handsome and masculine, with clear eyes and an upright demeanor. He is a person who makes people very fond of him at first glance.
"That's natural. I heard that my eldest brother was recently transferred to the Ministry of Finance. Congratulations to my eldest brother."
The relationship between Li Chengze and the boss, Lao San, has always been good, and they always fight for each other. However, the boss, Lao San, is more open-minded and disdains the use of underhanded tactics, which he still agrees with.
"Hi! You don't know my wish, but it's a pity..."
The eldest prince is determined to fight, and in this regard he is also at least five or six levels of skill and ability.
"Brother, I know that the northwest border is not peaceful. You can try your best in this regard. We brothers have always been close over the years, and eldest brother treats me kindly. In my heart, I prefer eldest brother's talents, but it's a pity that you also know my own master.
Nothing can be done.
I went to Jiangnan and almost escaped death, so you should be more careful."
The eldest prince patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's hard for you. Brother knows it well."
After they finished speaking, Huilan took a step forward and said, "My concubine, Ding, asks the great prince about his makeup."
"Brothers and sisters are polite. They call me eldest brother. Please come to the house and have a glass of wine with your sister-in-law."
"Thank you for the hospitality, brother. I'll go in first."
Huilan didn't refuse and responded gracefully. After speaking, she looked at Li Chengze.
"You go talk to the sisters-in-law and the others, and we men will go to the outer courtyard to talk about something."
"Yes, I'll go in first, excuse me."
Huilan was blessed again and followed the maid to the inner courtyard.
"Is this your favorite Ding?"
Almost all the princes knew about this matter, and even the famous ladies in the noble circle knew about it.
Li Chengze's ears turned red in embarrassment, and he lowered his head slightly and smiled, "Lan'er... is very good. I am satisfied to have her by my side."
When the prince saw the sweet and affectionate look in his eyes, he understood that he really liked him.
"Congratulations on having a confidant to accompany you, but you still have to be careful. I'm worried that if my father knows your thoughts, she won't survive tomorrow."
"Well, I know, otherwise I wouldn't be able to have so many sons in the first place."
Li Chengze smiled bitterly.
"Didn't you say that the Crown Princess also contributed?"
Talk to him as you walk.
Li Chengze sighed helplessly and shook his head, "She has such a bad temper. She only cares about power and status. She doesn't share the same heart with me, but she always uses the excuse of my preference for my concubine. But I have given her so many opportunities, and she
There is no me in his eyes, all he has is the identity and power of the prince."
The eldest prince nodded in understanding. Princes and grandsons like them had a noble status and had many things since they were born, but only sincerity and true love are hard to find.
Women say that I love you dearly, so they cannot tolerate other women. In fact, it is just for the sake of power and status. If these were really gone, would they still love themselves like this?
"Were you injured in this assassination? It's hard to ask too many questions in the palace."
"It was Lan'er who blocked the knife for me. I was not injured. It's a pity that I can't even get justice."
Li Chengze sighed helplessly.
The eldest prince also sighed, "Hey! It's hard for you. The third child and I were talking about it before. I don't know since when, that guy has become more and more gloomy, and it is difficult for people to get close. You said we
There is no need to risk one's life when brothers are fighting over each other. We were both punished together when we were young, hey! Forget it, why am I talking about this?"
Halfway through, I felt ridiculous again, shook my head and shut up.
"Why don't I feel uncomfortable in my heart? When I was young, I was looked down upon and bullied by the palace officials, and he helped me stand up. Why did our brothers break up just because we were walking around?"
Li Chengze raised his head, with a glistening look in his eyes. I am also a human being. I also have feelings and flesh and blood, and I also feel pain.
The eldest prince let out a long sigh and patted his shoulder. In fact, he understood his pain very well. It seemed that his father gave him the most attention and favor, but in fact he also suffered more.
Just like my eldest son, he has endured a lot of expectations and ideals that are not his own, and he can't help it, or run away halfway. It is obvious that their mother-in-law doesn't have this intention, but she can't help it.
"Brother, when can we live like ourselves, work hard according to our own ideas, and fulfill our dreams?"
"It may take a long time. My son likes musical instruments, but I still have to force him to study. He can't help himself."
The eldest prince shrugged his shoulders and smiled bitterly.
"Brother, I want to go to Yunnan, and I also want to get away from these disputes and take a breather. If you are willing to help me this time, I will do my best to help you go to the northwest, but the time may have to wait."
"Let me think about it. Sixth brother, you know my character. Jiangnan's affairs have nothing to do with Lao San and I. I swear on the lives of my mother, my concubine, and my son that if I say anything false, our family will die."
.”
This matter has nothing to do with their brothers, mother and concubines.
Li Chengze smiled and looked at the boss and smiled sincerely, "Brother, there's no need to be like this. I believe you and Third Brother. Concubine Hui always only loves books and ignores worldly affairs. If I didn't believe it, I wouldn't have come.
"Whether you believe it or not, I care about the friendship between brothers very much, and I will try my best to preserve the brotherhood. I am also a human being, and I will also feel pain and sadness."
He lowered his head and looked lonely. Since he became the prince, his brothers have gradually distanced themselves from him, and his words have become more polite and honorific. It's not that he doesn't understand, but that he feels aches and pains in his heart.
The eldest prince sighed, "I promise you this deal. I really want to go to the northwest. I will try my best to deal with the Yunnan matter for you. There is no guarantee that I will succeed. You also know that there are some things that I can't help myself."
"Okay, thank you brother anyway. I brought you some things, which may be able to heal your old injuries. This will give you extra protection when you go to the northwest. You can let the imperial doctor take a look at it before deciding whether to take it or not."
Li Chengze thought for a long time and decided to get close to the eldest brother and the third son. These two were the brothers he had been closest to since he was a child. The eldest brother wanted to be a general and was an honest and honest man, but was not interested in succession. The third son and Concubine Hui had the same temperament.
I just love studying books.
"Thank you, brother." The eldest prince also took a deep breath, with some water in his eyes.
Chang Ji will personally hand over the things to the great prince's confidants, and there is no need to hand them over himself.
