His Royal Highness the First Prince of Daliang

The whole autumn when Kang Ning was seven years old was the happiest time in his memory.

Although Qi Changfeng has to take lessons with the cavalry and archery masters of the imperial brothers, he also goes to Zhibozhai to study during the day, and every ten days, he has to go to the imperial guards to learn how to form troops with the chief cavalry commander in Kyoto, and sometimes even To be taken by the emperor who liked him more and more to do things - he still had a lot of time to be with Kang Ning every day.

Although he still thinks this kid is too attractive, he always wants to touch Kang Ning when he sees him, pull his braids, squeeze his soft hands, and see him laughing and crying. Somehow, he fulfilled his wish of being an older brother and his bad tastes—but the more he knew, the more pitiful he felt for this little prince.

Qi Changfeng couldn't imagine that he was in a situation where he couldn't play games to his heart's content, run fast, and was even locked up under the watchful eyes of his parents for years and months.The range of activities is only a square inch surrounded by pairs of worried eyes. If you do something out of the ordinary, you will face the gentle dissuasion of everyone, and a happy autumn wind will be separated by shock.

The little prince seemed to be bound by a gentle shackle that everyone, including himself, was unaware of.Over the years, the little soul becomes more and more tired, and will become weaker and weaker.

Of course he owns many of the most precious and rare creations in the world, those silks that are every inch of gold, priceless toys, and boundless attention and love.But the best things, those free things—freedom, the thrilling heartbeat of chasing a prey in the woods, the coolness of jumping into the river on a summer day that makes people feel so hot, the night sleep by the window on a thunderstorm night, He is not allowed to own even an autumn walk.

Qi Changfeng began to realize the emperor's intention of letting him stay with the little prince.

At first he told him everything.Beside the palace wall with slanting shadows, in the hole in the rockery in the imperial garden, on a certain gentle and quiet afternoon——he jumped up a tall tree with the little prince in his arms, leaving those anxious old nuns behind s face.The little prince was taken aback at first, and soon laughed in amazement—he was not at all the timid and weak child that the concubine and the palace people had imagined.

Kang Ning hugged his elder brother Changfeng's neck and looked out through the mottled, golden leaves.He is like a bird that has been locked up for a while, and suddenly finds that he could have stayed in a high place, and the high place is so interesting—he can see the golden-red West Mountain stretching at the end of the imperial city, with white, The clouds look soft and delicious. Nearby, the red palace walls and golden glazed tiles are regularly intertwined to create a dignified beauty. At this moment, a wild cat is sleeping in the sun.

"Mother, don't be in a hurry!" Kang Ning shouted at the servant who persuaded him to go down, "Brother Changfeng took me to play! I will go back after playing enough. Don't wait for me below! Don't let anyone follow us! Father They all agreed."

The emperor and the imperial concubine did agree.But Nanny Song and the others have always claimed to be loyal servants with a heart, and they can't relax themselves when their masters are wide-eyed. I can hide it in my pocket, I'm afraid that wild boy from southern Xinjiang will bump their little girl, how can I let go.

Seeing that the little prince went back down again, Qi Changfeng laughed, "It's okay! Let's get rid of them! I'll take you to a place where they can't find you, and run directly from the canopy," he coaxed the child, and took the opportunity to pinch him. With a slap on his face, "I will never throw you down, are you afraid, Your Highness?"

Kang Ning's eyes lit up when he heard this.Then he hesitated again, "Nurse Song and the others will scold you?" He was expecting Ai Ai.

He hated being nagged by the nanny all the time, sometimes accompanied by old tears and pleading pleadings, nagging so much that he just wanted to sigh and feel that everything was because of his ignorance.No good mood left.

Qi Changfeng was a little funny when he heard it, "They scolded me, would I stand there and listen? She walked so slowly. She couldn't even catch up with me, how could she scold me."

Kang Ning immediately became happy, "This idea is really good!" He said, but thought about it again, "But I can't run fast?"

Qi Changfeng was a little confused. He hadn't thought about it before, and subconsciously wanted to say, you are the prince, holding the imperial power in your hand, and supreme.Could it be impossible to take an old nanny?She was actually afraid that she would scold you.

But he swallowed the words back almost immediately, killing even the thought.

The most pure and innocent thing in Kang Ning, which the emperor and the concubine kept with good intentions, is the precious quality that makes him never be reduced to King Xi Nan. No one should change Kang Ning's equal kindness. Be gentle with all beings.

Teach him to use power, master punishment, use people as tools, use his own preferences and moods to give back care with malicious intent, and even teach him to measure the people around him by their status, and influence their closeness with bloodlines—this is not the one around him. what people want to see.

This is also the embarrassment that Emperor Liang Hui has been unable to express when choosing friends for his young son.

The emperor believes that there are some truly precious things in this world, such as freedom, such as the generosity and loyalty to die for a confidant, such as bravery and fearlessness.Corning's innocence is also one of them.That's the part of him that he wants to protect very, very much.

And those children who were born in the rich, they didn't even do it intentionally - but the kind of innate shrewdness that was raised for them because of their superior status, the natural recognition of their own noble status and their indifference and oppression of the lives of the bottom people, The emperor didn't think there was anything wrong with them—but he didn't want Kangning to be assimilated into the imperial city, the capital, and everyone in the world too early.

Kang Ning was raised by the emperor in the deep palace, the last crystal snowflake in the world.Obscure and ignorant, noble and pure.His father would not let him drop to the ground.

Unexpectedly, Qi Changfeng understood this in just a few months, and he also realized why the emperor liked him more and more these days—both him and Kang Ning were entrusted with some idealized things by the emperor.

He felt some sour and tender love and pity in his heart.He felt that he was now a mature brother, holding a sweet responsibility.

"If you can't run fast by yourself, I will run with you in my arms." He jumped up high with the help of the main branch with the little thing in his arms, and then climbed up to the next tree nimbly like a monkey. In this way, light and fast, throw them and everything that chases you far away!"

Their figures disappeared from the sight of Nanny Song and the others.Only a series of screams and laughter from the little prince remained in the canopy, and the hidden guards who were hidden around and arranged by Emperor Hui for the youngest son broke out in cold sweat.

Emperor Hui must not be able to really rest assured that his youngest son followed another half-grown boy all over the palace, but he also realized that as long as he and the imperial concubine interfered, they would often overprotect Kang Ning and make his son unhappy, so he gave the secret guard The absolute order is to protect the safety of the little prince.Others are not allowed to interfere and do not have to report to him.

——Is this really safe now, Your Highness?

Is it reliable for His Majesty to find this extremely satisfying friend for His Royal Highness?

Facts have proved that Qi Changfeng is indeed a very reliable person.He would not take such a risk with a small child without certainty. With 14 years of growth experience, he can almost know the bouncing of branches, the distance of jumping, the weight balance of his arms, and the blowing of the wind-he is a child born in the wild wind.And now he holds Kang Ning in his arms, so Kang Ning is also in a gust of freedom.

"I really want to be with Brother Changfeng forever!" The little prince blankly held his heart, which was beating violently and crazily at the moment, bringing him a feeling he had never felt before.

It was as if some of the long-standing bitterness that he was ignorant of, the desolation on the edge of life and death, the overly heavy love, and the anxiety and pain that his parents tried to cover up that still existed, all silently melted away at this moment under the violent impact of his heart .The child won't say it, he only feels the boundless ease and happiness at this moment.He really wanted to keep the happiness of the moment forever.

He confessed his sincere and hot heart to his big partner with all gestures: "I like Brother Changfeng so much! I almost like Brother Changfeng the most! I am so happy and happy to be with Brother Changfeng! We are happy together, before going to bed every day, I think about being with Brother Changfeng today, and I feel very happy. When I wake up in the morning, I think I can see Brother Changfeng again today, and I feel very happy."

"Brother Changfeng, what about you? Do you like me? Are you happy with me? Are we going to be together forever? Forever and ever!"

Brother Changfeng certainly likes it.Brother Changfeng is about to fly.He thought, having a younger brother was like this——

The feeling of holding a cloud in my heart; the light and heavy feeling; this sweet, happy feeling, which is obviously listening to a child, but still wants to seriously promise him and practice it seriously.

"I also like Your Highness very much." Qi Changfeng kept smiling, he didn't know that there was a long-lost, complete relief and relaxation between his brows, "I have something I have to do. But when I finish, I will come back to look for Your Highness. At that time, you will grow up. At that time, I must take you to see the southern border, to flow the Baihe River in my hometown, to ride our long-haired cattle, to taste Taste the taste of iron-headed snakes in southern Xinjiang. We also want to travel to the south of the Yangtze River, to see the qin and sword of the Fourteenth Niang, to see the plum blossom snow in Dengfeng Mountain Villa, and to introduce you to those most interesting friends in the rivers and lakes."

For some reason, Kang Ning felt that tears were about to come out of his eyes.Strange, obviously he is so happy at this moment.

Right now, he doesn't want to doubt whether he can really live to grow up as brother Changfeng said.He has unconditionally believed in everything the young man promised.It made him feel a kind of happy contentment.

Kang Ning didn't want to talk anymore.He hugged the neck of his partner in front of him relyingly, and quietly leaned against the young man's not-so-strong chest.At this moment, the sun is shining brightly, the wind is gentle, and the golden and dense leaves rub against each other to make a low sound, weaving a warm tune.
