Prince Consort

Prince Gong is not in a good mood recently.

One, his brother came over.This younger brother has never been very good with him.Considering that something bad happened to this guy some time ago, Prince Gong decided to endure it for a while.

Second, Tan Wuqiu also considered that this guy had encountered some bad things some time ago, so he spent his free time with this guy.In this regard, Prince Gong said that he still doesn't get along well with this younger brother!

Third, this guy also brought something prepared by the eldest princess.After Tan Wuqiu saw it, he sat alone in the yard for a long time without seeing anyone.

So Prince Gong decided to toss this "brother" well.

Prince Gong smiled: "Brother Ling, your body is too weak, you need to exercise more, come on, I will accompany you to practice."

Duan Wang: "..."

Tan Wuqiu didn't seem to notice the bright waves and undercurrents of the two brothers.

Prince Gong felt particularly wronged.From childhood to adulthood, Tan Wuqiu treated them equally. Later, when he met Zhao Yingcai, he was more partial to Zhao Ying and the eldest princess.At that time, Prince Gong wished he could drive Zhao Ying back to the border, but he was much more kind to the other brothers.

This time when King Duan came over, Prince Gong was always reluctant.Now every time he looks for Tan Wuqiu, Duan Wang is there chatting and laughing with Tan Wuqiu, this guy definitely did it on purpose!

King Gong and Congren together decided to throw a troublesome matter to King Duan: "You should understand Mr. Tan's thoughts, right? Beidi relies on absorbing the vassals to stabilize its dominance on the grassland, and we can do the same. But the vassals Clan instability has always been a big problem, you are eloquent, so you should be responsible for handling this matter.”

Duan Wang originally wanted to dislike King Gong on purpose, so he smiled and said, "What's wrong with this?" Xi Xia already had experience in this matter, and if they wanted to stabilize the clan, it was nothing more than intermarriage, house building, land reclamation, and having a home. With family members, when foreign aggression comes, it is natural to pick up guys to fight against.

It is said that there is a country where there is a family. For those who have been plagued by wars on the border all the year round, it should be a family that has a country.They have never even enjoyed the feeling of having a family, and talking to them about the righteousness of the family and the country is simply playing the piano against the cow.Duan Wang had discussed with Tan Wuqiu these days, and he roughly understood what he wanted to do.

Duan Wang smiled: "It's okay to leave it to me, but I want to borrow someone from you..."

Prince Gong's face darkened: "Don't even think about it!"

Duan Wang found it very interesting, touched his nose and said, "Do you want me to finish all the work alone? Isn't it too embarrassing? I just want to borrow an assistant from you..."

Prince Gong said: "Zhao Ling, I warn you not to pretend that you don't understand. We don't need to clarify many things."

Duan Wang laughed: "Where are you thinking, I don't want to borrow Linjun."

Hearing King Duan uttered the word "Linjun", Prince Gong's expression was not very good.He said: "Then go ahead and borrow it. If the person you borrow is willing to go, I won't stop you."

King Duan knew that Prince Gong was in a panic these days, so he didn't poke Prince Gong's heart anymore, and left on his own.

Prince Gong turned around twice, and went back to the mansion to find Tan Wuqiu.Tan Wuqiu is not in good spirits recently, Mr. Yang is taking care of him, and he doesn't usually have much time to go out.As soon as Prince Gong entered, he saw Tan Wuqiu sitting in the courtyard writing a letter.He approached quietly, wanting to take a peek at what Tan Wuqiu was writing.

Such a big person walked over, how could there be no movement at all.

Noticing that there was a shadow on the ground, Tan Wuqiu paused, but did not stop, and continued to write calmly.This letter was written to Xie Ze'an, and they all briefly explained the situation in the north, and there was nothing ulterior.At the end, Tan Wuqiu added the sentence "Everything is well, don't read it" - this is the only sentence that has nothing to do with serious matters.

After Tan Wuqiu finished writing, he asked with a smile, "Have you seen enough?"

Prince Gong was very thick-skinned, and he didn't feel embarrassed when he was exposed. Instead, he said openly, "I haven't seen enough."

Tan Wuqiu turned his head and met Prince Gong's focused gaze.

These eyes have been looking at me like this since I was a child.He is worthy of many people in this life, but he is also ashamed of many people.Yu Gongwang, he owes the most.A person like him, the more he puts it in his heart, the more he will move the other party back. From the day he decided to push Zhao Ying to the throne of God, he became more and more alienated from Prince Gong.

He felt that such a young man should let go of his unrealistic thoughts when he was young and have a more normal life.Things went as he imagined, and he and Prince Gong got farther and farther away.Seeing Prince Gong hating him, Zhao Ying, and Ah Man, trying his best to compete with Zhao Ying, he didn't know whether he was relieved or tormented.

A man like him is doomed to disappoint those around him.

Tan Wuqiu rolled his eyes: "A Ling has suffered a lot, so don't get angry with him."

Hearing Tan Wuqiu's familiar tone, Prince Gong felt a little uncomfortable: "You used to be like this." He sat next to Tan Wuqiu, grabbed Tan Wuqiu's hand and played it back and forth, "When they get into a fight, you always ask me to make a fuss." Let it be far away from them."

Tan Wuqiu laughed dumbly: "It's been a long time, and you still hold grudges."

Prince Gong tightened his palms: "Some things will never be forgotten no matter how long it takes." He fixedly looked at Tan Wuqiu's face, it was not the one he had watched since he was a child, but when he smiled, it was the same as before.He slandered King Duan unceremoniously, "He suffers because he doesn't know people clearly. If he had a better vision, he wouldn't be able to fall in love with such a guy."

Tan Wuqiu said: "Sometimes I am pushed to the extreme, and I will hold on to anyone I meet. At that time, A Ling also thought that he was desperately grabbing a life-saving straw. I boasted that I saw you as my younger brothers. When I really need my help, I have been standing by..." He persuaded, "Many of your brothers have passed away, and few of you are alive. You should get along with him."

Prince Gong laughed angrily: "Do you think he wants to get along well with me? As soon as he came, he bullied you, and the demonstration was so obvious!"

Tan Wuqiu paused, and met Shang Gong Wang's aggrieved gaze.Obviously both of them are not young anymore, but Prince Gong's temper has not changed at all.If you let him bear it, he will endure it, and then look at him with aggrieved eyes when he turns around, like a bullied dog.Tan Wuqiu turned his head away, but gently withdrew his palm, and took back the hand that Prince Gong had been holding onto him all along.

Prince Gong was stunned, and then became ecstatic.

Tan Wuqiu has always been passive, passively accepting his overtures, passively answering his inquiries, and passively living in his mansion. It is obvious that the closeness between them has fallen into everyone's eyes, but it has not made Prince Gong feel the slightest bit. A sense of practicality.Because in any relationship, if one party is always "passive" and does not respond, it will never last too long.

This is also the reason why Prince Gong is like an enemy when anyone comes.

Even if he waited for Tan Wuqiu for many years, what's the use?If Tan Wuqiu didn't have him in his heart, it would be his own business for him to guard him for many years. At most, Tan Wuqiu was a little moved because he reluctantly stayed by his side and talked about his wish because of guilt.

Wishful thinking, never expect to get a response.After all, what you give may not necessarily be needed—what you give may not be meaningful.What do you want to do yourself, what does it matter to others?

That's why Prince Gong never dared to ask questions like "Do you like me" or "Do you like me a little bit".

When Tan Wuqiu shook hands like this, the joy in Prince Gong's heart was completely incomprehensible to others.He hugged Tan Wuqiu into his arms with every inch, and kissed Tan Wuqiu's neck that was sideways to him.

Tan Wuqiu said, "Don't make trouble."

Prince Gong said: "I didn't make trouble." He kissed back and forth for a while, and hugged Tan Wuqiu tightly, "Linjun, I thought of turning against Zhao Ying several times before, and I wanted to step him down to prove that you misjudged the person. ..."

Tan Wuqiu calmed down.

How could he not know this.Prince Gong's thoughts became more obvious after he and Ah Man's marriage was finalized. On the day of his marriage, Prince Gong did not come, so Prince Gong rode out of the city alone and went straight to the border.Zhao Ying used to guard the border and could not return, Prince Gong was favored in Beijing, everything changed overnight.No one knows what kind of mood the sixth prince, who lived a flamboyant life, faced the bitter cold of the northern border, the eyeless sword, and the vicious foreign enemies...

But he chose Zhao Ying's side and never looked back.Zhao Ying is afraid of Prince Gong, and he has been helping Zhao Ying analyze Prince Gong's every move, helping Zhao Ying find out how to handle Prince Gong...

Even though he was about to go to a dead end, he still sent someone to deliver a letter to Prince Gong, entrusting him to guard the border.He was well aware of Prince Gong's feelings for him, even before he died, he did not forget to calculate like that.

A person like him is not worth waiting for so many years for Prince Gong.

It's just that life is alive, not everything has to be said to be worthwhile or not.There is only such a person in this world who can not only make him think about it until the end again and again, but also make him think of it again and again at the most critical moment.

Tan Wuqiu said, "I owed you a lot before."

Prince Gong's expression changed. The word "owed" was the last thing he wanted to hear from Tan Wuqiu. Not to mention that everything he did before was voluntary, even if he was unwilling or unwilling, he didn't want Tan Wuqiu to respond to him because of "owing". .

Prince Gong clasped his fingers tightly, interrupting Tan Wuqiu's words: "There is nothing owed or owed, the past—"

Tan Wuqiu said: "Let the past go." He turned his head to meet Prince Gong's gaze, "So I'm not going to pay it back."

Tan Wuqiu's eyes were full of smiles, and Prince Gong was dumbfounded.

It took a while for Prince Gong to come back to his senses.He understood Tan Wuqiu's meaning, and when he was pleasantly surprised, he immediately threw away his shame, and said shamelessly: "That's not okay, I still have to pay it back! Linjun, I told you that you are not allowed to favor Zhao in the future." That guy Ling..."

Prince Gong begged Tan Wuqiu to sign a series of "unequal treaties" with him, such as "the bias can only favor me", "I must drive Zhao Ling away when I come back", etc. Tan Wuqiu listened and laughed, and went back to A word or two.

The two of them clasped their hands, and although they were in the closest place to the battlefield, their hearts were more peaceful than ever.

A well-trained flying slave flew into the sky and brought back the good news of "the border is safe" to the capital.
