After the emperor rested, the two princes came out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, only to see the Ninth Prince rushing in with disheveled hair, yelling for his father in a childlike and innocent tone, and then surrounded the third prince and called him brother, with an air of attachment.Several palace people followed closely behind in a panic.

"Why did he come out?" Fifth Prince asked coldly.

"Back to the lord, the Ninth Prince was playing hide and seek in the garden, but he ran out when the servants were unaware, and I ask the two lords to forgive me." The palace servant knelt and kowtowed.

The fifth prince wanted to reprimand him, but he heard a weak voice from inside, "Let Xiao Jiu in." People are always very emotional when they are seriously ill, and the old emperor is not immune.What's more, the Ninth Prince suffers from dementia, and he and he are in the same situation. Those bad things in the past, now think about it, and let go of them all.

The fifth prince sneered, and waved his hand to ask Gao He to take him away.The Ninth Prince jogged into the Hall of Mental Cultivation while calling his father happily.

"Drag these dereliction of duty slaves to this king and give them a heavy blow of [-] slaps!" The Fifth Prince pointed at several palace servants and gave an order.

The guards outside the hall immediately rushed in and took the group of people away.The two kings strolled forward, and opened their mouths slowly when they left the boundary of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"Third brother, you got your wish."

"Aren't you too?" The third prince glanced at him, and there was no trace of excitement and anticipation on his face.To him, the throne is nothing more than a possession in his pocket.

"That's right, I got what I wanted too. What I deserve, I got it all. If I destroy the barbarians again, I will really die without regrets, hahaha!" The Third Prince's eyes were as calm as water, and there was a trace of waves.

This person in front of him planned the whole marriage affair, using a small chess piece to set up a killing plan to destroy the Western Yi, Qiang, Dongyi, and Mongolian tribes.Thinking of this, the Fifth Prince immediately restrained his bright smile and changed the subject, "Even if Concubine Rong is grounded, she is not honest, and she took advantage of the old man's serious illness to get that bastard out to win sympathy. Don't say it, this trick is pretty good." It works, maybe in a few days, the mother and son will be free again. Do you still remember how you and my mother and concubine were killed? Do you remember the oath we made when we were two children? When I come back , I don’t want to see them both alive again!”

The third prince sneered, "Why must they die? I would rather let them live a life that is worse than death, and live a long, long life."

The fifth prince took a deep look at him, and said with a sneer, "Everyone says that Prince Jin is benevolent, he was really cheated miserably! If you are benevolent, am I not a Bodhisattva?" His scalp was numb from the "gentle" eyes of the third child , He immediately changed the subject again, "Hey, tell me, is that bitch really crazy or fake crazy?"

"It doesn't matter whether it's true or not, let him go." The third prince smiled very coldly.

The fifth prince touched his arm with goosebumps, and said goodbye decisively, "I still have to gather the soldiers to discuss matters concerning the Western Expedition, so I'm leaving now. I think you won't be able to see your enthronement ceremony, so I'll congratulate you here first." Clasping his hands, he strode away.

"Fifth, bring me Huan'er back with his beard and tail. If he doesn't come back, you don't have to come to see me again." The third prince warned word by word.

The fifth prince walked faster, and said in a deep voice, "If he doesn't come back, I'll turn into a handful of loess to accompany him." Suddenly feeling that this was very unlucky, he turned around angrily, and spit on the ground, " Bah! You can’t count what you said just now! Don’t fucking talk nonsense! With Huan’er’s superb martial arts skills, no one who can kill him has yet to be born in this lifetime!”

He waved his sleeves impatiently and left in a hurry.

Due to the urgency of the war, the Fifth Prince did not dare to delay, so he summoned the army to march towards the border the next day.The third prince personally came to the gate of the city to see them off.

All the soldiers looked up at the next monarch of Daqing, and listened to his loud encouragement and admonition, except for a young general beside the fifth prince, who did not look up from the beginning to the end.

"Let's go." The third prince who had nothing to say waved his sleeves.

When the army marched far away, he sighed, "Huan'er is so cruel, she never even glanced at the king before leaving, hehe..." A low and decadent smile overflowed from his throat, staining his mouth with a thick layer of blood. Strong bitterness.

Wang Ziteng originally thought that his daughter was killed by Xiyi, and the emperor had to give himself an explanation.However, in just one night, the situation in Daqing changed.The five princes marched west, the emperor took the throne, but the third prince who had vowed to help him seemed to forget his own existence, and only sent some rewards to show his sympathy, nothing else.

Only then did he panic, asking people everywhere to find a solution was useless, but within half a month he was more than ten years old.Fang's face was washed with tears all day long, and his body gradually collapsed.

Because Daqing was being harassed by war, Princess Anlin was persecuted to death by Xiyi, and the emperor was seriously ill in bed. The third prince insisted on simplifying the succession ceremony. Kai Enke, amnesty to the world, this will be broken up.

Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng, who were imprisoned, were also included in the amnesty. When they came out, they saw the aging mother Jia, and immediately knelt down and kowtowed to her. Tears washed out two grooves on their dark faces.

The two happily got out of the carriage, only to find that what stood in front of them was not the magnificent Jia Mansion, but a dilapidated small courtyard. There were no carved beams and painted buildings, no servants, no hot soup for bathing, no exquisite meals, only moss-covered houses. The muddy ground and the ear room full of musty smell, the huge psychological gap made them lose their composure on the spot.

"Old ancestor, how can we live in such a place?" Mrs. Wang asked sharply.

Tan Chunmu helped Jia Mu to sit down with a stern face, and said in a low voice, "Rongguo Mansion has been sealed up. Because of my wife's theft and sale of sacrificial land, Ningguo Mansion and the clan are not willing to take it in, let alone pay for the property. If you don't live here, what else can you do?" where do you live?"

"Where's the big house? Jia Amnesty can't just ignore death, can he?" Mrs. Wang's voice was even higher.

"Dafang's family went to the south of the Yangtze River to join Jia Lian, and they didn't come back for three to five years. Even if they came back, they might not pay attention to us." Mother Jia wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and sent a letter to Wang Xifeng, who was shivering. Throw it away, "This is the letter of divorce Jia Lian sent you, take it and go back to your royal family!"

Wang Xifeng stared at the letter of divorce falling to the ground, but refused to go forward to pick it up, and just knelt down and kowtowed, weeping silently.With her reputation so bad, how could her parents tolerate her?Even if her parents tolerated her, how could her unmarried sisters tolerate her?The world is so big that there is no place for her to stand.

Mrs. Wang was woken up, she shook her head and said, "How can I live in this kind of place! My brother is a first-class loyal and brave Prince Teng, I have to go back to Wang's house..."

Jia Mu sneered before she finished speaking, "First-class loyal and brave man? It's just a good name, and the real power in his hands has been plundered! Third prince, no, when Zheng Shengdi ascended the throne, he received all the important officials. The only one who refuses to meet Wang Ziteng. Among today's nobles, who doesn't know that Wang Ziteng is about to lose power! I don't even think about what a glorious and virtuous person Zheng Shengdi was before, how can he tolerate such a bad family reputation? An official of yours will enter the court? Maybe at some point, even his title will be taken away. Also, thanks to you, your niece was not only unable to become a queen, but was also sent to Xiyi to get married. Assassinated by a barbarian, his stomach was ripped apart, blood flowed all over the ground, and his death was extremely miserable. Your good brother and good sister-in-law must be very happy to see you now. They are so happy that they wish they could eat your flesh and your bones. !"

"Why, how?" Mrs. Wang collapsed on the ground after hearing these words, she seemed to think of something and hurriedly said, "The third prince has ascended the throne, what about Yuan Chun? Yuan Chun is now the imperial concubine, right? We can go beg her!"

Speaking of Yuanchun, Mother Jia finally couldn't hold back her anger, raised her crutches and beat Mrs. Wang fiercely, "You still have the face to talk about Yuanchun! Yuanchun's bright future was completely ruined by you! She is an old man in the palace and a side concubine. According to the usual practice, at least one concubine can be obtained, but you have affected your reputation and become the one with the lowest rank! Promise, her dignified side concubine of the palace only got the promised position, and now moves to the man-eating deep palace , I don’t know if I can live! You loser! Poisonous woman! You give back my granddaughter, give back my grandson..."

Mrs. Wang kept dodging, only to realize that Baoyu was nowhere to be seen in the room, and asked in horror, "Where is Baoyu? What happened to my Baoyu?"

"He's in there, already crazy, go and see for yourself!" After all, Mrs. Wang is Baoyu's mother, so maybe she can wake him up.Thinking of this, Mother Jia barely suppressed her desire to kill the other party.

Mrs. Wang burst into tears and stumbled into it.

Because the prison environment for male prisoners was very messy, it was inconvenient for several women to show up, so Zhou Rui was sent to pick up Jia Zheng.Seeing the dilapidated small courtyard, Jia Zheng felt his heart tighten. He stood outside the door and listened to Jia's mother's many words. Only then did he realize that not only Jia's family was in decline, but even his brother-in-law who had a hand and eye had also lost power. How should I live?

With a flash of inspiration in his mind, he rushed into the house and shouted, "Mother, where is Brother Huan? Brother Huan has a deep friendship with the two princes, so he will not be in despair, right? Helping Aunt Zhao to be the official wife will always dispel his anger, and she will be used by my Jia family again. You know that Aunt Zhao, who has spent half her life trying to get the position of the official wife and the title of the first son? Now give it to her, she You should be satisfied!"

"Jia Huan has gone on an expedition, and everything will be discussed when he comes back alive. But you and Tanchun often visit Aunt Zhao's place, and Mozhi is no longer a stranger!" Mother Jia sighed while holding her forehead.Unexpectedly, in the end, the mother and son became the only straws for Jia's family.

When Mrs. Wang heard the heartless conversation between the two, she left Baoyu and rushed out, beating things and tearing Jia Zheng.The already cramped room suddenly became a mess.

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Emperor Zhengsheng, who was sitting on the dragon chair, spread out a memorial and read it for less than half an hour without replying.Cao Yongli, who has become the head of the palace, sent someone to bring a pot of hot tea and said, "Your Majesty, can you take a sip of hot tea and rest for a while? You haven't closed your eyes for two consecutive nights."

Emperor Zhengsheng picked up the teacup but didn't drink it, instead he showed a dazed expression and murmured, "I don't know what Huan'er is doing now, but I'm still used to the life in the frontier."

"The third master is extremely capable, and he can live well wherever he goes, so don't worry." Cao Yongli replied softly.

"Yes." Emperor Zhengsheng shook his head and smiled wryly.Because of Huan'er's toughness, fearlessness, and independence, even if he becomes the emperor, he can still dismiss him.There is such a person in the world, no matter how high you stand and how powerful you are, he still treats you like an ordinary person. It feels a little weird, but it is wonderful.

Thinking of this, the wry smile on the young man's face was replaced by joy again.

----

The Fifth Prince almost wiped out Xiyi five years ago, and the people of Xiyi hated him deeply, and at the same time were extremely jealous.Hearing that the army led by him was approaching Yumen Pass, he immediately retreated a hundred miles to avoid its edge.

After seeing all the soldiers and inquiring about the battle situation in detail, he took Jia Huan back to the commander's camp, saw two soft couches lined up side by side, and his face froze.

Ji Yan, who had always felt that he had forgotten something, finally came to his senses——My lord, it seems that there is a lover at the border?He glanced at Third Master Huan calmly, then turned his head silently.

Jia Huan thought that another soft couch was deliberately prepared for him, and threw the dusty package on it.

The fifth prince was secretly giving Ji Yan a wink, telling him to wipe the matter away immediately, but unexpectedly, a tall Confucian general with fair complexion, delicate features, opened the door curtain and came in, cupped his hands and said with a smile, "The prince is back! A farewell Over the years, Wen Qing has missed the prince very much."

Wen Qing is a man with strong martial arts skills, handsome appearance, and is particularly good at arranging troops. He is a rare talent, but unfortunately, he was born in a humble family and has never been able to find a chance for promotion.

He is very deep in the city and unscrupulous, knowing that the fifth prince likes men, he often dangles in front of him, trying his best to show his strengths.After being transferred to the side of the fifth prince as he wished, he pretended to be ignorant, and kept his appetite to prevent him from succeeding. Then, relying on the shadow of the fifth prince, he became a corporal in the army and won people's hearts. In just a few years, he was promoted to the captain of the cavalry.After the fifth prince returned to Beijing, as his most trusted confidant, he was promoted to General Yunhui, who commanded the army on his behalf.

At first, the fifth prince transferred him to his side in the name of his personal bodyguard, and they slept together every night.After the fifth prince left, he didn't know whether to show his loyalty or to suppress the lieutenants, he never moved out of the commander's tent, and lived there for five years.

The fifth prince's scalp was numb, and he secretly glanced at Huan'er who hadn't reacted yet, and said forcefully, "This king misses you very much too. This king is not here, thanks to you leading the army to resist foreign enemies. After returning to the court after victory, this king will show up to you." Emperor Zhengsheng, I will do you a great service. Alright, this king is going to rest, so you can step back if you have nothing to do."

Wen Qing was really surprised that the Fifth Prince's attitude was so indifferent, and he made a clear distinction between the two.Seeing the young man who was sitting on his couch and packing his luggage, only showing a side face, he was fascinated, he understood it, and immediately retreated obediently.

"These clothes, armor, bows and arrows have been stored for five years. How can they be used? Throw them away, throw them all away and replace them with new ones!" Wen Qing picked out the things and asked Ji Yan to dispose of them quickly.

He has seen a lot of Pai Jiahuan in this ugly look, so he didn't think much about it.

Ji Yan hurriedly rolled the things into a ball, and sent someone to quietly deliver it to General Yunhui.Not long after, rumors spread in the camp that the prince brought a delicate rabbit master with him when he returned to the border this time!
