Chapter 308: All Parties in the Snowstorm
The eldest prince's face was gloomy, completely different from the elegant and gentle man he usually was. The steward immediately knelt down and said, "Your Highness, forgive me!"
He had been following the eldest prince for who knows how many years. The steward thought that he knew very well what the eldest prince was thinking. But at this moment, he suddenly understood that he had never seen through the eldest prince in front of him.
Thinking about it, coming from the royal family, calculations and city government are what they have been exposed to since childhood. After so many years, even the gentlest people may not be as gentle, respectful and thrifty as they see. In other words, even if He is really gentle, courteous and thrifty, but that doesn't mean that he will no longer have the word "city mansion".
At this moment, the steward felt a chill in his heart. He was a little bitter, thinking about such a simple truth. It took him so many years to figure it out. He really didn't deserve to be a steward here.
The eldest prince didn't know what he was thinking, but he was silent for a long time, and then slowly said, "Look over there, the second brother will not be able to help but take action. Even if we want to take action, we have to wait for the second brother to take action first."
The steward responded, and then the eldest prince waved his hand to let the steward out.
After the steward walked out of the study and closed the door, the eldest prince coughed twice and covered his mouth with a silk scarf. When he took it off, there was already some blood on it.
At this moment, a gentle voice sounded from behind the screen, "Your Highness needs to be careful about his current state."
A woman with a dignified face walked out. Although she could not be called beautiful, she was delicate and made people feel comfortable just by looking at her. She was the kind of woman who would make you feel at ease just by looking at her. She was the eldest prince's concubine, and she was also the princess. The young daughter of the great general in the north. The courtiers of the Liang Dynasty had always felt that it was impossible for the second prince to compete with the eldest prince for the throne. This was because the eldest prince’s concubine was the young daughter of that great general. With the great general standing on his side With the Northern Border Army behind the eldest prince, are there any variables in this battle for power?
The battle for the throne that year was also because the northern border troops sat on the sidelines, otherwise the result today might not be like this.
It's just that things have changed again now. The northern general's life is short. How long can he last? Once the general dies, the entire Northern Territory will definitely be reshuffled. What is the advantage of the eldest prince then?
The eldest prince smiled bitterly and said, "It's an old problem. It hasn't gotten better after so many years. It's not likely that he will die like this. On the contrary, my father-in-law, I'm afraid he really doesn't have many days left to live."
When the imperial concubine heard this, there was a lot of sadness on her face. Although she and her father had been separated for many years and had never met each other, the relationship between father and daughter was not weak. She said softly, "Father should support me more." At least until His Highness ascends the throne."
When the eldest prince heard the word "enthroned", his face turned ugly and angry, "What are you talking about?"
What can you say? This is such a rebellious thing that you can say? ! "
The imperial concubine was startled, looked at the medicine bowl that was knocked over on the case, and lowered her voice and said, "Didn't my father pass away in the north?"
Although she was the young daughter of the great general, ever since she married into the eldest prince's house, she had considered herself to be a member of the eldest prince's house. After that, she only thought about things on the side of the eldest prince, without thinking about them at all. Exceed the interests of the general.
In fact, most women in the world are like her, and it is not unreasonable to obey their husbands when they get married.
The eldest prince originally wanted to scold her a few words, but looking at the woman's appearance, he sighed and said softly, "There is no way for a person like my father to die at any time. He didn't know whether he was alive or dead before, but people like Shendu still can't." I will make some guesses, but now that the news has come out, I believe more and more that my father is still alive. If my father really dies, we will never receive such news. Probably only people like Lao Er will really I believe that my father has passed away."
The princess had some doubts in her eyes. She had only met her father a few times, so she couldn't say she understood her father. She just believed her husband's words unconditionally, so she whispered, "Then we don't want to do anything?"
The eldest prince shook his head, "Since a person like my father has set up a trap, if I don't step in, my father will not be happy."
The princess asked, "Do you want to write a letter to father?"
The eldest prince shook his head and said, "My younger brother is very smart. He knows that it is best not to do anything at this moment. Now I just want to do nothing."
Although the princess didn't understand many things, she was not stupid. After hearing this, she still asked, "Is that young man really the son of the former prince?"
Naturally, the eldest prince was not talking about the second prince.
The eldest prince calmly said, "When the queen died, neither I nor the second son were able to see the queen for the last time. He was the only one who went into the palace, and his father also allowed him to see the queen. If it wasn't for the queen's last wish, how could this happen?" ? Why did the mother treat a young man of unknown origin like this and summon him to the palace before he was alive? Put these things together, how could anyone expect it? "
When talking about the queen mother, the imperial concubine's face also became not so good. Regardless of the whole city, or those people outside the city who knew the queen, in fact, when the queen was mentioned, almost everyone praised her. .
No one would have any dissatisfaction with the queen.
Mu Yi Tian Xia is used to describe the Queen, completely
No problem, in the entire history of the Liang Dynasty, only the founding Queen Gao could compare with her.
In other words, in the history books in the future, Emperor Liang will definitely receive mixed praise and praise, but the empress will definitely receive praise.
No one would think she was bad.
The eldest prince waved his hand and said softly, "The gods are in chaos, things are complicated, and I can't figure it out."
He felt a little powerless, because when facing his father, no matter how many ideas he had, it seemed that he would be seen through by the other party. This matter has been known since the eldest prince saw his father's methods when his father started the army.
"I want to meet Mr. Wei."
The scholar in the academy is definitely not ordinary. Not only is he not ordinary, he must be a wise man.
Of course, if possible, he would rather meet the dean, not Wei Xu.
But it is obvious that the dean will not meet any of them at this moment.
In this turmoil in the capital of gods, the academy will not participate, because there is no need, because no matter who wins in the end, the academy will still be the academy, and there will be no change.
The dean is now highly respected in the Daliang Dynasty not because he has a good relationship with the current emperor, but because he is the dean of the academy.
The academy is the foundation of the dean of the academy.
The imperial concubine shook her head and said softly, "Wei Shi had spread the word that Mr. Wei would not see guests during this period."
The eldest prince coughed a few times and did not speak.
……
……
Wei Xu sat on the doorstep, flipping through the old book.
This scholar in the academy has read many books in his life, but in fact there are still many books he has not read.
There are too many books, and you can never finish reading them.
I don't know how long it took, but a sound of footsteps sounded.
Wei Xu did not look up, but just said to himself, "Didn't you say that you would not see guests today?"
The footsteps stopped, and a person stopped behind him and said softly, "It's the commander of the left guard."
Wei Xu looked up in surprise. Now in Shendu, the left guard and the right guard are both very important yamen. As the commander of one of the yamen, how could he appear here?
But soon he realized that the commander of the left guard was Chen Chao?
"Why is he here?"
Wei Xu looked at the wind and snow in the distance. Now in Shendu, many places and many people want to see the young man, but not him.
But why would that young man want to see him?
> Wei Xu was silent for a while, and suddenly said, "Let him come to see me."
Not long after, Chen Chao came here.
Wei Xu stood up and looked at the young man with some snowflakes on his body. After taking a look at him, he sighed, "You have grown up a little too fast."
Before leaving Shendu, Chen Chao was able to cross the border and defeat Song Changxi in the martial arts test. Not long after that, Chen Chao in front of him had broken through the realm and is now a warrior in the bitter sea realm.
"It's just luck."
Chen Chao looked at this Mr. Wei.
Wei Xu said, "Why did you come to see me?"
Straight to the point, that's probably it.
Chen Chao said, "I want to see what Mr. Wei chooses."
He was also very direct.
Wei Xu found it a little funny and said, "Do you think I will answer your question?"
Chen Chao didn't speak.
Wei Xu looked at the young man and continued, "You are a little strange."
Chen Chao shook his head and said softly, "Actually, I have a question, but I don't know how to ask it."
Before Chen Chao left the Zuowei Yamen, he actually thought a lot, but in the end he decided to come to Mr. Wei to ask something.
Wei Xu said, "Do you think I will answer you?"
Although Chen Chao had not yet asked the question, it seemed that Wei Xu had guessed something.
Chen Chao said, "After all, Mr. Wei should actually owe me something."
Beside the lake, Wei Xu once stopped Chen Chao. Although he just asked Chen Chao to choose carefully, he actually had his will in it.
Wei Xu said calmly, "I saved your life on the day Zhu Xia entered the Divine Capital."
The meaning is very clear, that is, it means that it has been even.
Chen Chao frowned and found that there was nothing wrong with saying this.
So he saluted, turned around and left.
Wei Xu looked at his back and was a little surprised. He didn't expect Chen Chao to come and go as he said.
This is not reasonable.
Yes, since he had the courage to come here, why would he leave immediately?
But Wei Xu did not call him, but just looked at Chen Chao's back for a long time.
…
…
Chen Chao walked out of Wei's house and walked towards a long street. At the end of the long street, there was a carriage.
There was a seal of the academy on it.
In the carriage, there was a girl reading.
