The reborn prince is hard to raise

Perhaps it was because of the emperor's decision, but today's national strength and military strength have given the courtiers confidence. Above the great court, the proposition of "war rather than peace" has hardly encountered any setbacks or strong opposition.

However, the most critical issue facing them today is the distribution of benefits.As a war that has been stable for a hundred years, and it is a war with a great winning rate, almost everyone wants to get a share of it.

Perhaps war is a shortcut to heaven. Countless people want to build their merits on the bones of the enemy, and countless families hope to use blood to flow into rivers to support a prosperous tomorrow.

"Report to father." The noisy court suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes subconsciously focused on the prince standing on the golden steps.He was dressed in a bright yellow prince's robe, and the golden dragon pattern clearly showed that he was below one person and above ten thousand people.At this time, Lu Chengning's hair was tied with a jade crown, and he was very dignified.

Xie Yunhong was standing in the court row, he was a little lost at first, but when he heard this familiar voice, he suddenly came back to his senses - what does he want to do?Looking at the back above the golden steps, I feel uneasy for no reason.Looking at Mu Hanjiang who was standing in the queue of generals, and seeing that his brows were also frowning, he knew that His Highness probably didn't tell anyone about this matter.

"What's the matter?" Lu Zezhang rubbed the center of his brows, his face didn't show fatigue, but he was a little impatient, facing Lu Chengning at this time, he eased his tone slightly.

"Report to father, my son, please fight." Lu Chengning's tone was usual light, he knelt down on one knee, and his bow embroidered with dark cloud patterns lightly landed on the ground, but his black eyes were straight. Looking at Lu Zezhang, his eyes were dark, not only emotional.

As soon as these words came out, the entire court was silent and one could hear needles dropping.King An stood under the main hall, with a faint smile on his lips - his brother was still the same as before, as long as it was related to that person, he couldn't help himself.It's just that I don't know how Lu Chengning feels at this moment.

It is not without precedent that the prince led the army to go to war. On the contrary, there are many examples that can be followed in the past dynasties.On the one hand, personally going to the crown prince can cultivate his trusted generals and lay the foundation for his future enthronement; on the other hand, it also has the effect of boosting morale.Of course, it is an unspoken fact that the prince will not see the flames of war if he does not go to the front line. After all, the future king is the most important thing and the foundation of the country.

Lu Zezhang paused with his hand rubbing the center of his eyebrows, his eyes darkened, "Prince, do you know what you are talking about?" His tone was difficult to distinguish between joy and anger.The ministers who wanted to make a statement all of a sudden stopped their movements——looking at the situation, I am afraid that the present is also unaware of this, and he does not quite agree with such a pleading.

"My son is willing to lead the army to fight against foreign enemies." Lu Chengning said again, this time he did not look at Lu Zezhang's expression, his eyes fell aimlessly on the jade brick in front of him, his voice was still calm, but the corners of his mouth were tightly pursed With a touch of sarcasm.

He remembered that day when Lu Zezhang summoned him in the Imperial Study Room, the phrase "Lead the troops out this time yourself" rang very clearly in his ears, and he suppressed the doubts in his heart and retreated.But now in the court, he voluntarily asked for his order, why did he show such hesitation?Who is it for, or do you want to announce something?

"Quasi-playing." The majestic and uniform voice was slightly tired, as if something had been abandoned at that moment.Sitting on the dragon chair, Lu Zezhang looked at Lu Chengning with his head slightly lowered, feeling suffocated——Jiaye, he has eyes similar to yours, but why do I no longer miss him when I see them?The hand resting on the seat subconsciously grasped the edge of the seat inlaid with jewels, a sharp tingling came, but it could not relieve the bitterness in my heart.

I am so ignorant that I have been deceived by you until now, but now that I know the truth, I am so happy.

As soon as the words fell, several ministers rushed out of the line, prostrated themselves on the ground, and kept shouting, "Think twice, Your Majesty! Think twice, Your Highness! Your Highness is my Crown Prince of Dayong, so you really shouldn't be in danger yourself! I hope your Majesty will take back your order!"

As the only prince of the Tian family, Lu Chengning is also the crown prince of Dayong. Now he is far from being comparable to the foolish childhood. Countless courtiers believe that this crown prince will definitely become a wise monarch. How can you kiss the front line?For a while, there were countless petitioning courtiers kneeling under the hall.

"Let's retreat." Ignoring the shouts of the ministers, Lu Zezhang got up and left.The long middle drum sound echoed in the imperial city, with indifference.

Maybe even if I send him to the battlefield, you won't have the slightest objection or reluctance, Kasyapa.

East Palace.

"A Ning, what on earth are you thinking? Don't tell me you want to defend the frontier! You have never had such integrity since you were a child, besides, I will guard your frontier master!" Mu Hanjiang suddenly Putting down the teacup in his hand, he even blurted out the title that he hadn't evoked for a long time.

He stood up a little anxiously, looked at Lu Chengning's calm expression, and reluctantly eased his tone, "The battlefield is not a good place to go, if you are not careful, you will lose your life..." Seeing that Lu Chengning still ignored him, he turned aside While speaking, she winked at Gu Mingheng and asked him to speak for her.

"This is your father's order." Lu Chengning, who hadn't spoken for a long time, said suddenly, seeing that the three of them couldn't believe it, he repeated, "This is my father's order, he told me himself."

"What do you mean?" Xie Yunhong looked at Lu Chengning suddenly, and asked in a loud voice, Mu Hanjiang also froze in place, his lips moved but he didn't know what to say.

"Father's hesitation and hesitation in the court are all illusions." Lu Chengning calmly put down the teacup in his hand, looked at the three of them and said, "When he showed me the report, he ordered me to lead the army. "

For a moment, time seemed to stand still here.The fallen leaves fluttered outside the window, and ripples appeared on the surface of the water, and I don't know what alarmed them.

"Why do you want to do this today?" Xie Yunhong asked the doubts in his heart even though his usual calmness could not conceal the confusion under his words.He frowned slightly, and seemed very puzzled—why did such a play be staged in the court, or why did he order the current prince to lead the army?

King An has nothing to rely on in the army, but the Gu family and the Bai family, who have always held military power, have long been attached to the East Palace, and the Sangong family has already been defeated.So far, Lu Chengning has been expected by everyone. On his way to the throne, almost all stumbling blocks have been cleared away -- then, why is it necessary for the prince to go to the front line at this moment?

Gu Mingheng's hand holding the teacup trembled, and memories suddenly flooded out - Lu Chengning was deposed as the crown prince in his previous life, and the secret that the empress told before she died...

"Could it be King An?" Xie Yunhong subconsciously stroked the jade fan bone, feeling warm and cool to the touch.If anything happened to the crown prince on the battlefield, it must be King An who benefited the most—except for Lu Chengning, King An was the only candidate for the crown prince.

Besides, in Shanglin Garden, King An had already revealed his unknown thoughts.

"But if he suggests ordering His Highness to lead the army to go out, it is very likely to be suspected by the present." Gu Mingheng said lightly.This is also something that he is not very clear about in this world.King An's spying on the throne must not be shown in front of Lu Zezhang's eyes. Then, how did he become the emperor's younger brother in the previous life, and at this time, under the circumstances that are beneficial to Lu Chengning, Ling Jin made such a move? Such a choice?

Whenever he thinks of this, Gu Mingheng will subconsciously avoid it, always feeling the truth hidden behind everything, with a bone-chilling chill.

For a while, several people fell silent, and the atmosphere was a little stagnant.

After nightfall, the entire East Palace gradually quieted down, and the palace lanterns were gradually lit up one after another, revealing a faint outline of the majestic palace in the darkness.There was a more drumming sound in the distance, but it seemed a little ethereal in the whimpering wind.

Gu Mingheng sat in front of the bronze mirror and took off the jade crown, letting his long black hair hang down his back, reflecting a faint dim light under the lamplight.

Lu Chengning bent down and picked up the white jade comb and combed it gently. Holding the fine hair in the palm of his hand, he could clearly feel the coolness spontaneously spreading to the palm of his hand, and slowly smearing along the lines of his skin.

The two of them didn't speak for a while, as if they were worried that if they spoke, they would break the silence and tranquility at this time.

"A'Ning." Gu Mingheng spoke suddenly.He slowly raised his hand, and lightly pressed Lu Chengning's hand on his shoulder, as if he was considering how to speak.Lu Chengning didn't urge him either, but stopped combing his hair and looked at Gu Mingheng through the slightly blurred mirror.

It seemed that there were countless sharp needles gathered in the throat, making the voice extremely dry, "Perhaps, you are not Lu Zezhang's parent and child." After he said it, he realized that it was not that difficult.Gu Mingheng took a light breath, his face was trembling, and his eyes felt astringent when he didn't realize it.

Silence spread again, wrapping the two of them tightly.

Lu Chengning, who had not moved all this time, suddenly bent down, pressed his chin tightly against Gu Mingheng's warm neck, and wrapped his hands behind him, as if protecting the last trace of warmth in the snowy sky.

"En." Lu Chengning responded softly, didn't speak any more, just maintained this posture motionless, as if falling asleep.

Gu Mingheng looked at the blurred shadow in the mirror, and gradually dissipated the pent-up emotions in his heart—in fact, this may be the best reason to explain Lu Zezhang's behavior, but he kept ignoring and avoiding it, just because he didn't want to admit.

The present prince, Dayong's only prince, his Aning, is not Lu Zezhang's son.

The lights made a slight "crackling" sound, which was harsh in the extreme silence.

"Heng, don't be sad." Lu Chengning's voice sounded in his ear, a little low, as if he was holding back something.The hot air he exhaled fell on his neck, with a gentle meaning, only to hear him continue, "As long as I have A-Heng, from before to now, and even in the future, as long as I have A-Heng, I will not Greed, not at all."

As he said that, Gu Mingheng felt his slightly cool nose gently rubbing against his ear, as well as light pecking kisses.
