Lian Jun

Chapter 8

It will take two days at the fastest to return to the capital from Yunzhou.And in these two days, the two brothers who reunited after a long absence naturally have a lot to say.

"Seventh brother has suffered a lot these days."

Hearing what the elder brother said, Bo En expressed his sincerity, and the two sat opposite each other with no one else around.His eldest brother is always like this, leaking inside and out.

He is not Fu Si, but the Seventh Prince Bo En.He is not Fu Yu either, but the current First Prince, Bo Yu.

"Fu" is a false surname that Father Huang used in private visits on Weifu before, and the characters that Father Emperor chose for them all have a "heart".

Bo En raised his head and looked at each other, showing just gratitude and relaxation, he was a respectable brother and friend, and he also sighed: "I escaped death, I don't want to see my eldest brother one day."

Bo Yu sighed, and said heartbroken: "The fourth child is confused, we are brothers, how could he do it! He didn't even care about brotherhood..."

"It's...fourth brother?" Bo En looked puzzled, and then said in disbelief: "How could fourth brother be like this?"

Seeing that he didn't believe it, Bo Yu continued: "The assassin who was arrested that day couldn't bear the punishment and already confessed. He is indeed the fourth brother, who lurks in the suburbs of Beijing to attack you and me."

After finishing speaking, he turned up the large sleeve robe, revealing the layers of gauze wrapped around his forearm.

"At that time, if the knife had been one inch deeper, my brother's arm would have been useless."

During the imperial mausoleum sacrifice, the three princes went out of the suburbs of Beijing together, and were robbed and killed by assassins on the way.The assassin has high martial arts skills, is well-trained, and has a clear target to hit the prince directly.The eldest prince was wounded, and his arm was almost crippled. The seventh prince was missing, but the fourth prince was safe and sound.

This was what everyone saw at the time.

Bo En recalled that day, he almost walked on Huangquan Road.

At that time, when they traveled a hundred miles to the outskirts of Beijing, assassins emerged from the forest, each attacking fiercely.However, the Imperial Forest Army around him took the initiative to disperse, pretending to be invincible, but a few personal guards of his palace fought desperately to protect him and escape into the forest.The assassin chased after him relentlessly, the guards died seven times and injured two, they were lucky enough to get one life.

At that time, he understood: the capital city, it is impossible to go back.

He thought of the Jiang family in Hongzhou, the mother's family of the former empress, and his maternal grandfather.But there were many barriers on the road, so he and the remaining two guards took the waterway to Hongzhou.Not long after the boat sailed, when night fell, they were assassinated again.His personal guard died, and he jumped into the water to escape.

Nine lives.

Later, I met Wei Chiqi and went to Feiya Villa.Wei Chiqi asked him to write a letter. His whereabouts of going to Hongzhou had already been exposed, and he didn't dare to send a letter to Jiang's family.Those two letters were just to coax Wei Chixi into randomly sending them to a merchant in the capital whose name he knew. The letters asked about some wrongly written invoices.

He wanted to wait for a while, and go to Hongzhou after the weather calmed down, and even... wanted to stay in Feiya Villa.But they still found him, the Wei family owed him a favor, and they couldn't get involved.So he left with his elder brother without delay, not daring to let the eldest prince's attention stay in Wei's house any longer.

Now the eldest brother came to pick him up in the name of elder brother, using brotherhood to find out the facts, saying that it was the fourth prince who did it, with all the witnesses and material evidence.

He doesn't believe anyone.

The assassins could be members of the fourth brother, but at that time the Imperial Forest Army guarding them was under the jurisdiction of the fourth brother.The assassins attacked, and the imperial army pretended to be defeated and dispersed, leaving him exposed to the shadow of swords and swords.

Between siblings, how can there be any so-called affection?

And Bo Yu looked at the seventh younger brother in front of him, he was gentle and thin, with the surprise and doubts he expected on his face, as if he was really ignorant and bewildered.What does it matter if it is true or not?The important thing is that it is enough for Lao Qi to understand what he said.

He pretended not to ask about his father's favorite younger brother before his death, and said in a gentle voice: "Since father made you his successor, do you have evidence? This time, when you go back to the court of public announcement, the fourth child will be relieved."

He said again: "It also prevents brothers from fighting, and you suffer again, seventh brother."

Full of concern and distress for the brother.

But Bo En's eyes were full of doubts, he frowned and tilted his head slightly, and looked at his elder brother unabashedly with surprised eyes: "Father...is it me?"

The two looked at each other for a while, and Bo En's eyes were only honest.Bo Yu picked up the teacup, twisted the lid and turned the lid slowly, only to realize that the tea was already cold.

I heard the seventh younger brother opposite him telling the story of that night with a sad voice. The father's perception was limited. One night, he dreamed of the beloved first and empress. After waking up, he was very sad. So he sent himself to see him.Talking about his eyebrows and eyes most like the queen, and talking about many old things in the past, the more sad he said in the end.Bo En was afraid that his father would be sad, and couldn't bear to recount the past, so he comforted him for a while, served the decoction, and then withdrew back to the palace.

But he didn't want to hear the sad news of his death at dawn, and it was the last time he saw him that night.

When Bo En said this, he felt so sad that his eyes were red and tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.Bo Yu couldn't ask any more questions, so he told him to rest well, and he would be at ease when he returned to Beijing soon.

After Bo Yu left, Bo En let go of the hands tightly clenched in his sleeves, his palms were covered with sweat.The grief he had just now was condensed on his face, as if poured out of copper juice, he was motionless and lifeless.

He rolled up his sleeves to wipe away his tears, and the bracelet that often slipped out of his wrist had already been put on his arm to prevent it from being exposed again.

Bo Yu came out and chuckled: Sure enough, Lao Qi has grown up after going through some storms.

He knew early on that the fourth brother couldn't bear his temper and wanted to use tricks, and wanted to use tricks. He could not only be charged with crimes, but also force the seventh child to submit, killing two birds with one stone.I don't want Lao Qi to be surrounded by guards. He has never been able to ride a horse in front of others, and he needs someone to lead him when he gets on a horse, but he was running fast on that sweaty horse that day.

Only then did he know that this little brother favored by his father is not useless, seeing that he has never been a leader and has no talents, if he is wise and protects himself, he is not afraid, but he is afraid of dormancy and forbearance, in order to hide his strength and bide his time...

After the whereabouts of Lao Qi disappeared, the group of old things in the court hall became more violent.

The veterans believed that even if the seventh prince who was the last to meet the late emperor did not have a secret edict, he must know the inside story.The Seventh Prince was the late emperor's favorite during his lifetime, and he was also born in the first line of the Yuan Dynasty. If it is said to inherit the great unification, it is also very possible.On the other hand, the eldest prince and the fourth prince, the late emperor never mentioned the intention of establishing these two when he was in power.Now that the Seventh Prince was assassinated and then disappeared, there are many doubts.The top priority is to find the Seventh Prince first and ask about the details of that night.The position of the new emperor doesn't matter what the princes say, and it doesn't matter what they say. Only following the emperor's will can be justified.

"The name is right..." Bo Yu turned the jade wrench finger in his hand, repeating these four words lightly over and over again.

The name is upright, the world obeys, the words are obedient, and the courtiers obey.

But names are made by people, and words can be tampered with by people.And if people want something, they must do something.Coincidentally, he suddenly remembered what his seventh younger brother, who seemed to be taciturn and desireless, cared about.

On the ship, under the bright moon, the river waves are sparkling, and the river wind rolls your sleeves.Bo Yu looked back at one place from a distance, where the lights faded as the boat sailed away, and there was a longing gaze that Bo En didn't hide.

Yunzhou, Feiya Villa.
