The mist was hazy, the stars were dim, and the lights in the pavilions and pavilions were gradually fading. Li Jinghuan carried a lamp and walked forward in the night.A cluster of flames danced in the lampshade, and when it came out of the lampshade, it turned into a faint halo.

As we walked, the attics on both sides became thinner, the vegetation became more lush, the path was submerged in the grass, and the lights and footsteps gradually faded away.

When he reached an uninhabited corner, Li Jinghuan stopped and raised his head to look around. At this time, the clouds in the sky had dissipated, and the moonlight fell on his face. His handsome face was clearly visible, and his black eyes A look of indifference flashed in his eyes.He looked down to find an open space and sat down on the spot.

He was so preoccupied with things during the day that he could not fall asleep in bed for a long time, so he simply lit a lamp and came out to relax. Although this place is a palace, when it was first built, because the emperor liked the natural scenery, he surrounded it for a while. There is a large grass field, and the guards usually don't come here to patrol, so Li Jinghuan is quiet when he comes alone.

He always felt that the behavior of the emperor today seemed to imply a deep meaning. Hunting is hunting. It is not a strange thing to have a lottery.After the day was over, it was no accident that the eldest prince won the first prize, and the treasured sword was naturally awarded to him.

Li Jinghuan didn't have any objection to this, he even wished for the other princes to show off a little more, the provincial emperor always focused on himself and felt uncomfortable doing something by himself.

However, he didn't like this strange atmosphere, especially the meaningful look the emperor gave him when he handed the knife to the eldest prince. He really didn't understand what it meant.There is also the fourth brother, who is usually such a prudent child, but today he got into a fight with the fifth brother because of a deer, really...

"Heh," came a low laugh suddenly, "Second brother is really in a good mood."

Li Jinghuan was startled, and when he looked back, it turned out to be Li Jingxuan!

He smiled, and said calmly: "Fifth brother is also quite elegant, why don't you go to bed so late?"

"Second brother didn't sleep either?" Li Jingxuan asked back.

What happened during the day caused Li Jingxuan to think a lot.All along, he knew that the fourth brother followed the prince faithfully and was always moody, but today's incident still made him puzzled.He has never offended the fourth brother, but the attitude of the fourth brother towards him has never been very good, and today it is considered embarrassing.

At first, he also suspected that it was the order of the prince, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was impossible. The prince has always advocated respect between brothers and brothers, and even the sixth brother who has the best relationship with him was almost poached by him. What kind of enmity did the brothers have, and how could they only target themselves now?

However, the crown prince has always been favored and has a deep mind. He is often unpredictable, so he dare not make a statement. After much deliberation, he can only test it first.

Therefore, when he saw the prince going out, he couldn't help but follow him...

Although he didn't think the prince was targeting him, Li Jingxuan still wanted to test it out.When he was young, he also obeyed his mother's orders and made friends with the prince. Although the relationship between the two is not as good as the prince and the fourth brother, they can be regarded as brothers who can talk. If he asks, the prince will definitely not hide it.

As Li Jingxuan said, he walked slowly towards Li Jinghuan with a lamp.

Li Jinghuan glanced at him indifferently, and said hello, "Fifth brother, come to sit down too?"

Li Jingyu stopped a few steps away, his eyes circled around him, and after looking at him for a long time, he hesitated: "Second brother, this is..."

Royal children are really vigilant!Li Jinghuan sighed silently in his heart.

He looked around without any trace, and saw a brook shining with silver not far away, so he slowly stood up, with a gentle smile on his usually serious face, and a little bit in his voice. The meaning of bewitching, "Fifth brother, come here..."

As he spoke, he moved quietly towards the river.

Li Jingxuan subconsciously took a few steps forward: "What's the matter..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Jinghuan suddenly yanked him vigorously and dragged him into the water. In an instant, the water splashed everywhere.

"Cough cough cough... you, cough cough..." Li Jingxuan was caught off guard for a moment, and coughed uncontrollably from being choked by the water. Fortunately, the water wasn't too deep, but only slightly below his waist.

But due to the sudden incident, Li Jingxuan was still a little flustered, fluttering in the water in a hurry, not caring about his usual aristocratic demeanor, and gritted his teeth: "Second brother, what are you doing?"

"What?" Li Jinghuan raised his eyebrows, "Unhappy?"

Li Jingxuan suppressed his anger, gritted his teeth and said, "My younger brother just doesn't understand what the second brother is doing."

To be honest, Li Jinghuan can't beat Li Jingxuan.Although Li Jingxuan's bow and horse riding and shooting are not outstanding, but Li Jinghuan usually slacks too much. He originally has eight points of strength, but only four or five points are left after a few strokes.

Although Li Jingxuan was young, in order to get the emperor's attention, he had also put in a lot of effort in boxing, riding and shooting. If he hadn't been caught off guard just now, Li Jinghuan would not have succeeded.

Li Jinghuan stretched out his hand to him, "Come up and talk."

Li Jingxuan glared at him, ignored his outstretched hand, raised his leg, and struggled to crawl out of the creek, but at this time he was already soaked through.

Li Jinghuan wanted to take off his drenched outer robe for him, but he avoided him before he stretched out his hand, so he had no choice but to tell him: "The clothes are wet, be careful of typhoid fever."

Li Jingxuan said coldly: "Don't worry about it, second brother."

Seeing that the other party didn't get in, Li Jinghuan also gave up the idea of ​​having a normal conversation with him, "I ask you, why do you fight with your fourth brother for that deer during the day?"

Li Jingxuan withdrew his cold expression, was silent for a long while and said, "That's what I shot."

"You shot it?" Li Jinghuan narrowed his eyes slightly, "Third brother clearly said that you two shot it together, why did you shoot it when it came into your mouth?"

Li Jingxuan immediately became furious when he heard the words, "You have a good relationship with fourth brother, so naturally you are speaking for fourth brother, but I saw that deer first, and fourth brother went up to snatch it after seeing me draw the bow!"

"He robbed you?" Li Jinghuan gave him a suspicious look.

"He stole it!" Li Jingxuan was indignant, "The fourth brother is clearly targeting me!"

"But, fourth brother..."

Before Li Jinghuan finished speaking, there was a faint sound of footsteps in the distance.

"The servant is meeting His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and joining the Fifth Prince." It turned out that a group of patrolling guards had arrived, and it seemed that the two of them had made too much noise just now.

In the end, this matter was brought up to the emperor.

"What's the matter with you two? The majestic prince, running around with disheveled clothes, how decent is he?"

In fact, the descriptions of the two of them are really not embarrassing. At least Li Jinghuan's clothes are clean and tidy. As for Li Jingxuan, although his body is soaked, he also cleaned it up before coming to see the emperor. Now The appearance is also considered neat.

"Please forgive me, my father, I know my mistake." Li Jingxuan bowed his head and said respectfully.

Li Jinghuan also explained: "Returning to my father, my son was not able to win the hunt today, and I felt guilty, so I went out to relax at night, and happened to meet my fifth brother, so I made an appointment with him. It's just that the two of us chatted too happily. , I didn't pay attention to my feet for a while, so the fifth brother accidentally slipped and slipped into the water."

Li Jingxuan lowered his head and listened to his words, gritted his teeth with hatred in his heart, he was clearly the one who dragged himself into the water, but now he speaks empty teeth, saying that he slipped and fell into it, which is simply nonsense.

"Can you fall into the water even if you walk?" The emperor snorted coldly, and turned his gaze to Li Jingxuan, "Is what the prince said true?"

"As the second brother said, Erchen was also bored, so he went out to relax, but unexpectedly met the second brother, so we left together."

Li Jingxuan was not good at refuting the prince's face in front of the emperor, so he had to follow his words.

The emperor didn't speak, and looked up and down at the two princes in front of him who would never get together on weekdays.Although the two seemed to speak the same words, the emperor had such good eyesight that he could tell at a glance that the two were lying, especially Li Jingxuan, with his unhappy expression, there must be something inside.

But seeing the prince's expressionless face, the emperor also knew that he couldn't ask anything, so he said indifferently: "As a prince, every word and deed represents the face of the royal family, and we must guard against arrogance and impetuosity in doing things. What happened tonight I won't care about you, I have to reflect on it when I go back, kneel down."

The two nodded in agreement and said goodbye.

The residences of the princes were not far apart. Li Jinghuan and Li Jingxuan walked one after the other. Under the firelight of the lantern, two shadows overlapped vaguely, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.

When they reached the fork where they were about to part, Li Jingxuan stopped abruptly and sneered, "If the second brother wants to vent his anger on the fourth brother, you can just say it, there is no need to teach me like this."

Li Jinghuan avoided his fire-breathing gaze, and said calmly: "Gu is not trying to vent his anger on anyone, but just wants you to know that you must treat your elder brother with the same attitude as you treat your elder brother. As for the fourth brother, if he really wants to steal Gu Ye will never cover up your prey."

After speaking, Li Jinghuan strode away.

Li Jingxuan watched his back gradually go away, and walked back with a cold face.

He has always had a gentle and refined style, even if his heart is overwhelmed, he can always maintain a smile like a spring breeze on his face.But at this moment, he couldn't maintain his demeanor at all, and his heart was extremely depressed and irritable.

Prince, what does he mean?This is to protect the fourth brother?Or are you planning to offend no one?

When Li Jingxuan returned to his residence, the servants were all trembling, for fear that something would offend him and he would suffer disaster.

Especially his personal eunuch, seeing his master's ugly face, his heart was almost in his throat, for fear that his master would annoy him.

He took a careful look at Li Jingxuan, and didn't dare to talk too much, so he could only offer a cup of tea respectfully: "Your Highness, drink some hot tea first to get rid of the cold, and I will provide you with some hot water for bathing."

Li Jingxuan took the tea, his eyes were cold, he dropped the teacup on the ground, the tea splashed everywhere, "Li Jinghuan!"
