Pick all the cold branches

The next morning, Mr. Zhen did not come.

A person who always gets up earlier than chickens and goes to bed later than dogs. When it comes to diligence and self-denial, he says that no one dares to be number one. Suddenly, he is absent from work without warning. And I couldn't help but think so crookedly that I would be beheaded if I said it out loud.

In particular, His Majesty the Emperor suddenly changed his mind and wanted to take back the Taishanghuang's successor, Mrs. Zheng, to live in Shouchang Palace.

Looking at the government and the public, Mr. Zhen is probably the only one who can make the Holy One change his mind.As for how Lord Zhen did it... There are conjectures and rumors, it doesn't matter, it's nothing more than a little stuff for snickering and whispering in private.

The only person with displeasure on his face was Rong Wang Jiayu.

What made Jia Yu depressed was not how the second elder brother treated the old grievances and entanglements between the Zheng family and their mother and son, and between the brothers and the Zheng family.What is gloomy and unspeakable in his heart is that the second brother treats Zhen Xian so obediently, as long as Zhen Xian asks for anything, the second brother must be the one who compromises in the end.

Zhen Xian stayed in Qianqing Palace last night, he knew the news at that time.

Jia Yu was particularly annoyed.In particular, this indescribable sticky gloom made him feel like a woman with deep grievances in the palace, just like his mother back then... This strong sense of humiliation made his chest ache, and he could only force himself Only by holding back can I strangle the madness boiling in my blood.

He went to look for Jiafei after the court, and he kept chasing him and refused to let him go until he reached the palace of Qianqing Palace. The second elder brother refused to let him continue to follow the door, still biting his lip and refusing to leave, his eyes were dark staring.

Jiafei really couldn't laugh or cry.

"You two feel that I treat each other too favorably... It's really difficult for me."

He didn't really hide from Shiro in the first place, but the more he relied on Shiro in the past two years, the more he had nothing to hide, so he just spoke out.

Jia Yu probably didn't expect that people like Zhen Xian would have such complaints in front of the second brother, so he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then lightly said, "So the second brother decided to only favor him."

Jiafei pressed his forehead with a headache, "It's not that I'm partial to anyone. Xiaoxian has his reasons. I know you have yours too. But sometimes—"

"Second brother thinks his reasoning is more correct than mine." Before he could finish speaking, Jia Yu pouted slightly.

Jiayu is good at everything, but she likes to stick to the horns, which makes people tired of dealing with it.Jiafei even often feels that although they behave differently, Jiayu actually resembles Xiaoxian in many ways.

They are two people who are clearly opposite to each other, but they are like the reflections of twins, so alike.

Jiafei could only sigh with a wry smile, and comforted Jiayu's shoulder, "Shiro, you were wrong if I didn't say it."

Jia Yu bit her lips tightly, as if she wanted to say something, but was interrupted by a series of unsteady laughter.

A figure turned out from the door opening of the corner gate, holding his stomach and bending over, followed by an eunuch with a bitter face.

Jiafei glanced at the sound, and saw that it was the third younger brother Jiacheng, smiling so much that he almost turned into a flower and bumped into his face.

Needless to say about this situation, since he came over by himself, the eunuch didn't dare to be too forceful to stop him, and there was no time to inform him.

Jiacheng's younger brother is not much younger than him, but he doesn't have much contact with him, except for New Year's festival sacrifices. He is said to be a fun-loving master.But Jia Fei always had a vague feeling that San Lang, the younger brother, was the most shrewd and most troubled of the seven brothers.

But no matter how you say it, it is taboo to hide in the doorway and eavesdrop on the words of today's emperor.

Jiafei couldn't help frowning at Jiacheng.

Probably because His Majesty's vigilant and disgusted expression was a little dangerous, Jiacheng quickly straightened up, with an apologetic smile on his face: "I really didn't mean it. Who knew that Brother Huang and Shiro would stand at the gate and chat with the stone lion. "

It's more like a joke than an explanation.

Saburo has always been like this. Since he became the emperor, he has only been called the emperor brother, unlike Shiro who still has "second brother" long and "second brother" short.

Intuition made Jiafei not want to answer this question.

Jia Yu on the side was already a little anxious, and was about to bite someone with a dark face.

Jia Fei stopped him, "You are not in good health, go back and rest."

"Second brother!" Jia Yu still refused to leave, subconsciously reached out and grabbed Jia Fei's sleeve.

Jiacheng watched from the side, squinting his eyes, and touched his chin with his slender, fair fingers, with an elegant posture.

"Silang, if you brothers have something to say, you should go first. Third brother, I am not a monster, so what can I do to the emperor?"

He actually said bluntly that he was driving Jia Yu away, right in front of the emperor.

Jiafei's eyes darkened.

Even though Jia Yu was unwilling, but the second brother refused to keep anyone, he had no choice but to leave unwillingly.

Jiafei thought that Zhen Xian was still asleep in his south study, so he didn't want to let anyone into the Qianqing Palace, but looked at Jiacheng rather repulsively.

Jiacheng didn't mean to be so ignorant.

The two changed their way and walked out of Yuehua Gate, walked slowly through the long street, and arrived at the East Pavilion of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

This can be regarded as another place where Jiafei handles political affairs and summons ministers, and important ministers who are not very close will not pass it to the Qianqing Palace.

But Jiacheng was a younger brother after all, and he was brought here after arriving at the gate of Qianqing Palace, the alienation was self-evident.

Jiacheng didn't seem to care about it, and he chatted casually all the way, "I haven't seen the emperor for a while, and the emperor has been reduced", until the two of them took their seats in the East Pavilion of the Hall of Mental Cultivation. , After using the hot tea, he suddenly let out a long sigh.

"Xiao Qi'er came to my place yesterday and told me that he wanted to leave the capital. Is Brother Huang going to let him go?"

Jiafei was taken aback suddenly.

This is really defenseless.

When Qilang was in front of him yesterday, his expression was not very good. He seemed to be frightened by the dispute between Shiro and Xiaoxian, and then he collided with Shiro again.He also sent someone to the palace to take care of him.But then he only focused on Xiaoxian, and he didn't care about Qilang anymore.

But he never thought about it, Qilang actually had such an idea.

What's more, it's nothing to just think about it, Qilang even took the initiative to come to the door to "discuss" with Saburo.

Xiao Qier is the youngest son of his father, he has been loved since he was a child, and he has a close relationship with other brothers like San Lang and Liu Lang, which Jia Fei has always known.

But no matter how close they are, are they close enough to communicate about such things?

If Shichiro has any ideas, why not come and discuss with him directly.

Could it be that he, the second elder brother, did something inattentive that made the seventh younger brother feel dissatisfied with him?

So what else should he do to be good?

"That's what Qilang told you?" Jiafei's heart suddenly sank to the bottom, and displeasure and gloom appeared on his face.

While fiddling with his fingertips, Jiacheng observed his face and chuckled, "He also advised me to leave with him and go to the fiefdom, and we should not stay in Beijing. He must have been to Liulang's too."

In a few words, it has been made clear.

Jia Fei could hardly believe his ears.

It turned out that Shichiro meant this.

It's not that I'm dissatisfied with him, but...

Qilang didn't want to leave the capital on a whim, but said that now that the world has been settled and the prince is young, they, the sons of the Supreme Emperor and the brothers of the current emperor, should not stay in the capital.

This refers to Shiro, of course.

Shichiro wanted to reassure him.More importantly, it is to drive Shiro away from him.

Qilang obviously does not agree with the actions of the fourth brother.

If Sanlang, Liulang and Qilang all left the capital and moved to Fandi, it would be difficult for him to keep only Shiro by his side.They are also brothers, so biased, it is really hard to justify it.What's more, Shiro was originally sick and weak, and the officials immediately responded, forcing him to also send Shiro to a rich land to recuperate from his illness. Jin Yiwei was not the emperor's younger brother to be in charge of things, so he still returned it to Si Li The supervisor is.

But in this way, the government structure that has just had a little new breath will quickly go back to the previous state, and if you are not careful, all the changes that have been exchanged for blood will be destroyed.

Although he can appoint trusted eunuchs and other courtiers, so what?

Once upon a time, Chen Shiqin was also the most trusted eunuch of his father.

Only Shiro is different.

Shiro is his sword to break the game.

Maybe in the future, after a hundred years of his life, his son will do something different when he succeeds to the throne, but in his lifetime, only Shiro can help him hold back this fate.

Because the father entrusted him with the heavy responsibility of the transformation, and only if he made the transformation, could his son succeed.

But change must involve bloodshed, and it cannot be achieved without killing people.

For a moment, Jiafei suddenly felt like laughing.

When he finally stood where his father used to stand, he immediately understood all his father's forbearance and waiting, even if it was something that made him feel resentful in the past.

Shichiro finally learned to think about these things, which made him more sad than the accident.

He also had no way of knowing what Qilang was thinking in his heart, why he made such a determination after yesterday, whether he was angry with his fourth brother, or if he really thought clearly about doing such a big thing.

All he knew was that it was no wonder that Sanlang wanted to drive Shiro away first.If Shiro knew about this, he would definitely be heartbroken.

What Shiro said was not wrong, when the time came, he should really let Qilang go.

Jiafei couldn't help but look solemn, and after a long silence, he asked Jiacheng in a low voice, "What do you think?"

Jiacheng still smiled, with an indifferent look on his face, "Brother Huang knows me, I'm a lazy person, I just want to hide from the world, and don't care about anything. It's not fun to play anywhere. I don't care, but there are others, Brother Huang should be reluctant to let go, so he wants to stay by his side."

When he said this, he suddenly paused, looked at his elder brother's expression, and tried again, "Or is it that my brother is stupid and guessed wrongly what the emperor's brother is thinking. The emperor has already made a choice and decided to stay or not?"

Saburo wanted to cover his words, so that he could prepare early in accordance with his wishes.The reason why he turned around and sold Qilang to him was not mainly to remind him, but for himself.

As the third younger brother, he is shrewd and has always been slippery.But it is always a blessing to be happy to be an idle prince. After all, he is a younger brother, and he is happy to see his success.

Jiafei pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "I see." He didn't want to say a word.

Jiacheng didn't give up, and chased him closely, and asked again: "Brother Huang, have you ever thought about it. If one day, you have to make a decision, Brother Huang...how do you plan to make a decision?"

"What do you mean?" Jia Fei finally turned cold, with hints of anger.

After all, he is now the Son of Heaven. Compared to when he was a prince and prince, he has to hide his strength and bide his time. His temper is indeed much bigger. If he is unhappy, he will show it on his face to let others know.Only Zhen Xian would contradict him without any scruples, and even Jia Yu would watch him carefully, and the others would not dare to do anything wrong.

Of course Jiacheng knew the colors, so he hurriedly drew back and smiled vaguely.

"Chendi just feels that many times, if you hold on too tightly, you will still hurt yourself in the end, so it's better to just let go."

An unclear sentence seems to have infinite meaning.It seems to be talking about Shiro, but it seems to be talking about Qilang, and if you listen carefully, it seems to be talking about someone else.

Suddenly, an unknown fire flared up in his heart, and Jiafei's face became gloomy, and he suppressed his anger with a sneer: "You mean to teach me how to do things?"

"Your brother dare not." Jiacheng smiled vaguely and humbly, and quickly retreated to the door, looking as if he was going to run away at any time.

Jiafei was already bored, and didn't want to talk to him anymore, so he waved his hand and ordered: "You go back first."

Jiacheng got the decree and ran away like a rabbit.

It's basically a special trip to the door.Just relying on being a real brother, not seeking rebellion, and not rebelling, there is really no reason to use a knife, and I still can't bear it in my heart.

Jiafei was upset, and he didn't let the servants follow him. He walked up and down alone, and made a long circle before turning back to Qianqing Palace.

Entering the south study room, I saw that the person lying on the couch behind the screen was still sleeping peacefully, his beautifully shaped eyes were tightly closed into a line, and there was still a tired look on his handsome face.

Jia Fei stared blankly at Zhen Xian's sleeping face, and after a while, he felt that the surging depression in his chest gradually calmed down.
