Seance [crossing]

Just when Yi Kan was secretly annoyed that his first confession was covered by the sound of fireworks, the third prince approached him unawares and asked, "What did you say just now? It was covered by the sound of fireworks at that time, and I never heard of it." clear."

This time, Li Kan wasted all his previous efforts, and he no longer had the courage to say it out loud, so he hesitated and said: "No, nothing, it doesn't matter if I haven't heard it..."

The third prince refused to believe it, and said to him: "Really? I saw that you looked shy, and you seemed to be serious, so you must be talking about something important..."

Yi Kan hurriedly said: "No, no, it's completely irrelevant, Your Highness doesn't need to know."

The third prince said: "Kan'er, I want to hear you say it again."

Su Kan was so embarrassed by the sound of "Kan'er", he hurriedly said, "No, let's not talk..."

Unexpectedly, when the third prince heard that Yu Kan refused, he embraced Yu Kan and said: "If you like what I say, why don't you say it again?"

Hearing this, Ji Kan knew that he had been tricked by the third prince, his eyes widened immediately, and he blurted out: "Your Highness, you obviously heard it, but you want me to tell you! You are playing tricks on me..." Thinking of his own confession, he said The expression and tone at that time clearly fell into the eyes and ears of the person in front of him, and he felt extremely ashamed, his face was hot, his face was red like blood, and he wished he could dig three feet into the ground and bury himself in it.

But the third prince said: "May I ask, is there anyone in the world who doesn't like to hear the confession of the person he likes?"

When Su Kan heard the words, he didn't dare to look directly at the third prince, just bowed his head and said nothing.

Seeing that Li Kan didn't answer, the third prince went on to say, "Since you like me this time, do you still want to come to the country of Yi to look for that beautiful lady Pingting?"

After hearing this, Yi Kan knew that he was just making a joke at that time, and it turned into a trap to frame him, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and jump down.With that barely audible voice, he murmured: "A gentleman is quick to whip a whip, and he confesses in vain. Anyway, I can't take it back. From now on, I will only follow your highness. Wherever your highness goes, I will go there..." At this point , Recalling that the third prince once said that he also likes this country, Fang was resurrected with blood, happy to divert his embarrassing confession, his voice immediately returned to its usual state, and said happily, "Your Highness, you Yidao likes this country, if you want to come in the future, I will come with you~"

The third prince heard what Li Kan said, but he didn't answer, but his expression seemed to be lost in memory.

Seeing this, Yi Kan grabbed the third prince and asked: "By the way, Your Highness, why do you like the country? It must not be because of the many beauties. Compared with you, they are all not enough... um... ...I mean you as a woman..."

The third prince came back to his senses and replied: "It's not that I like the country of Yi, but before I knew about Xun Cao, I didn't know that there was a country of Yi in the world..."

Speaking of this, the third prince couldn't help recalling a past event in his childhood.At that time, China set up a Taifu to teach the children of the royal family the knowledge of classics and scriptures. Since the time of Yun Bing, the 26th ruler of the country, the Taifu was originally a Wu Yi Kun, who was old and knowledgeable.Not long after Wu Yi took office, he hung up his crown and left on the grounds of lack of energy.Afterwards, the post of Taifu was succeeded by Wu Xianguo's predecessor, Wu Pengyu.

One day, while teaching the scriptures, the teacher asked the princes to explain their views on the current situation of the Chaos Continent and express their aspirations. The fourth prince was young, but he did his part, and took the lead in answering: "A king should conduct benevolent government, and he will be worthy of heaven and earth." Master and master, I am worthy of the people of the Li people, so that our country will be clean and the world will be safe..." After speaking, he turned to the third prince and asked: "Brother three, what do you think?"

Unexpectedly, the third prince shook his head and said to each other: "I only want to achieve peace through singing and dancing, and Haiyan and Heqing. I am satisfied; I don't have any big ambitions, but I just follow the teachings of my ancestors and cultivate myself."

After hearing what the third prince said, the fourth prince turned to the second prince and asked, "What's the second brother's opinion?"

The second prince put down the jade tube in his hand, picked up the paper written before the case, and showed it to everyone.I saw the word "Soldier" written in thick ink on the rice paper, and said: "An old saying goes: 'Soldiers, the great affairs of the country, the place of death and life, the way of survival, must be investigated.'①, and to protect the safety of the people They are the top soldiers of a country. The soldiers are strong and powerful, they will have plenty of food, and at the same time defend them with Taoism and law. This will ensure that our army is invincible and invincible, and other countries and foreign races dare not invade our territory. , our country enjoys long-term peace and stability..."

This time when the second prince finished speaking, everyone around applauded and applauded, and the third prince also echoed from the sidelines, but the eldest prince laughed loudly when he heard the words, and the laughter actually overwhelmed the applause of the crowd.Seeing this, Master Li asked, "I don't know what your majesty's respect is?"

The eldest prince stood up from his seat, held a fan and slapped it on his palm, and said: "What you say here is not high-minded, it is worthless!"

Master Yi said, "Ask me for details."

The eldest prince then pointed at the fourth prince with a fan and said: "What Liu Ting said is just an outdated theory of the predecessors, none of which has made any achievements. Everyone can say it and it can be done at any time. We can't change the status quo." Then he pointed to the second prince and said: "As for the public The theory of elegance sounds reasonable at first glance, but in fact the chest is short and small. It only covers the surface with points, takes the law and abandons the way, and is content with the status quo without benefiting the future. May I ask, when and where do you not know the importance of military skills? Why does our country only emphasize it? How is this different from ordinary people? The women's country in the south of our country and the Kuafu country in the north are both strong with military force, and our country is doing the same, so how is it different from these two countries?" After speaking, Fang paused for a while. This time, he no longer pointed at people with the handle of his fan, but squinted at the third prince who was opposite him and said: "As for Wanghe, I only know how to achieve success. This is a mediocre theory, and it is not enough to share with the nobles."

But when Yi Kan heard this, he interrupted the third prince's words angrily and said: "It's too much, didn't the eldest prince make it clear that 'except for me, everyone here is rubbish'? Your Highness, I know you It’s just pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, just to perfunctory everyone, they don’t even know the true thoughts in your heart..."

When the third prince heard what Qu Kan said, he squeezed Qu Kan's jaw with his fingers, and said with a smile, "Kan'er is really smart and sensitive, but you know me~"

Only to hear the third prince say again: "Actually, the theory of Brother Wang has indeed seen people..."

The eldest prince said: "What the Grand Tutor said just now is clearly asking about our ambitions based on the current situation of the Chaos Continent. It is a pity that no one here is discussing the current affairs. In my opinion, although the Chaos Continent has many countries and Each country is governed by itself, but China is the suzerain of the mainland, and after Huaxu has the Xiong family, the only direct descendant of the protoss in the Chaos Continent. After hundreds of years of management by our ancestors, the country is strong and culturally prosperous. None of the other countries in the mainland can compete with our country. In comparison, if our country is content with the status quo and manages itself to maintain the current situation, although there is nothing wrong with it, it will have no merits. Over time, it will be tantamount to standing still and not thinking about making progress...You can know that the rest of the mainland countries have Although the strength is inferior to ours, there are countries with more than enough self-preservation, such as the women's country, the Kuafu country, and the Yumin country, which our ancestors wanted to make them surrender but failed; moreover, such as the Sushen country and the Bolu country. When the closed-eyed, ignorant country merges with the black country, the Xiaoyang country, and other wild and remote places where the people's wisdom has not yet been developed, they all wait for the enlightenment of the holy way of our country. The current strategy should be to use offense as defense ', we must not be confined within the borders of the country, but need to broadcast culture and demonstrate the prestige of the country. Although our country is strong, it is far from being able to convince people with strength and show the prestige of our great country; it is far from being able to educate people with morals and show the wisdom of our great country .It is difficult for such a narrow-minded and short-sighted person to be a king and overlord to do long-term things..."

As soon as this remark came out, Master Lu nodded his head, and everyone around him applauded, and the third prince also echoed from the side.

After hearing this, Yi Kan pursed his lips and said: "Power politics, hegemonism, it's you!!" Then he turned to ask the third prince, "What exactly did His Highness mean at that time? I think it must be a trick! "

Unexpectedly, the third prince replied: "You overestimated me this time. At that time, I was single and weak, and I was in a difficult situation in the palace. I knew that the throne was hopeless, and I didn't have any ambitions in my heart. Although there are many countries, they have no contact with each other. If there is a paradise in the world, even if a small country has few people and does not communicate with other countries, it will be able to defend itself. Its custom is to have no competition with the world and be self-sufficient. Although there are boats and boats, there is no need to take them; Wars and wars are not good for the people in the end, but the peace of the people is the peace of the world..."

Yi Kan: "..."

The third prince continued: "Before this, I always hoped that one country and one place could fulfill their ideals. Until I came to the country of Yi this time, I knew that there is really such a paradise in the world."

After hearing this, Su Kan nodded and said: "Your Highness is benevolent, and Su Kan deeply admires it; if His Highness can rule the world, it will be very fortunate for all people and the world!"

However, the third prince shook his head and said: "This is just a naive and superficial opinion when I was young. I have traveled abroad in these years, and I have seen people and things outside the country many times. Only then did I realize that I am limited to one country and one place. I am a frog at the bottom of a well. Guess, the real way of being a king is definitely not limited to this, but..." Having said this, the third prince shook his head again and remained silent.

Half of what he said, he made Qu Kan on the side feel itchy and anxious to hear the content. Seeing that the third prince was silent, Fang urged: "Your Highness, what are you thinking now? Tell me, don't you?" To whet my appetite..."

Unexpectedly, the third prince didn't answer this question, and instead teased Yi Kan: "If you are so Kaner, let me repeat the previous confession, so that I will not be in vain for saying so much~"

When Yi Kan heard this, he paused immediately, shrank his head and neck, and said in a low voice: "This, this...Your Highness, without such additional conditions..."

Seeing this, the third prince became even more interested, and continued: "This time you only know six words, and I can't finish the six hundred words. I am a hundred times better than you. I think you are not at a loss~"

After hearing this, Yu Kan was ashamed to speak out, and blushed, unable to bear the curiosity in his heart. After holding back for a long while, Fang stammered and murmured in a voice as thin as a mosquito's feet: "Your Highness, Your Highness, I, I... like you……"

After speaking, I saw the third prince leaning over and approaching him, and Su Kan subconsciously leaned back, almost losing his center of gravity and falling down.Fortunately, the third prince put his arms around his waist in time to stop his falling body.Seeing this, the third prince showed a smile, stretched out a finger and tapped Kan's lips, and said, "Good Kan'er, I am satisfied with you now~"

After hearing the words of the third prince, Yu Kan was so ashamed, his head seemed to be in a steamer, his brain was steaming, his heart was beating like a drum, and he shouted in his heart: "Your Highness, your words are too ambiguous, hey!"

I only heard the third prince say: "These days I have traveled around the world with you, so I know..."

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words were spoken, a talisman paper kite descended from the sky, the third prince raised his hand to catch the paper kite, opened his eyes, then suppressed the smile on his face, frowned slightly, and said solemnly: "The letter from Yun Yong has been sent to you." The traces of the black-clothed alien were found in the Yumin Kingdom."
