There is a profound meaning in these words.
The eldest prince heard clearly and understood very well. After he calmed down for a while, he just smiled and said: "My father summoned me. As my father's sons and ministers, how can you and I not share my father's worries and disobey my father's will?"
The second prince let go of his hand and said calmly: "Brother Huang is ill. As a younger brother, Gu should actually do more to share the worries of his father and brother, so that brother Huang can rest in peace and recuperate."
The eldest prince straightened up, looked at his younger brother, thought for a while, and said calmly: "Second brother, it's a good thing that you want to shoulder more of the burden, but the world belongs to the father. What does the father say? We sons
I have no choice but to do what I want, it’s useless even if I think about other things.”
The second prince smiled faintly and did not answer any more words.
The exchange of words between the two was actually very restrained and did not lead to any quarrel, but anyone could feel that the two princes were at odds with each other.
However, the third prince, who was always away from the two royal brothers, was just looking at the table of food with some boredom at the moment. After waiting for so long, he was a little hungry.
Waited for a long time.
The imperial robe finally arrived belatedly. After Emperor Liang appeared, the three princes all knelt down and said, "Kowtow to the emperor."
Emperor Liang said, "Sit down." Then he sat on the main seat and waited for his three sons to sit down.
The three princes were always trembling with fear. No one dared to look directly at their father in front of them.
In fact, there is no trace of a father-son relationship between these two people. I am afraid they are even more estranged than ordinary monarchs and ministers.
"eat."
Emperor Liang only said one word, then he picked up the chopsticks and started eating by himself. The three princes looked at each other, and finally the third prince took the lead in picking up the chopsticks and started eating, followed by the other two princes.
At a banquet, none of the three princes said a word, and Emperor Liang only said two words at the beginning. This banquet was not warm at all, but rather cold and weird. In fact, to a certain extent, the emperor
The relationship between His Majesty and his several princes.
I don't know how long it took, but Emperor Liang stood up and said, "Third brother, come with me."
The third prince was startled, then stood up and said respectfully: "My son, I obey your order."
The eldest prince and the second prince lowered their heads, not knowing what they were thinking, but they quickly got up and knelt to see their father off.
No one knows why this banquet is held, and no one knows what His Majesty the Emperor is thinking at the moment. Just like in the past countless years, they have never felt any family affection from His Majesty the Emperor. This kind of relationship has already
None of it is easy.
Li Heng came here to see off the two princes.
Emperor Liang was walking in the palace city, and the third prince was silently walking behind him holding a lantern.
The father and son did not speak for a long time.
The third prince looked at his father's back again and again, and found that he was still so majestic, and he felt a little respectful.
I don’t know how long it took, but Emperor Liang suddenly asked: “Have you heard the rumors about the capital now?”
The third prince was startled, then quickly nodded and said, "I heard about it."
Emperor Liang asked: "What do you think?"
The third prince thought for a moment and said, "I guess my brother's identity has been revealed."
Emperor Liang didn't take it seriously, "Even you know about this, so it's not surprising that his identity is known to others."
The third prince was speechless for a moment, and said in confusion: "My brother's identity is going to be used by someone with ulterior motives to make a fuss. What do you want me to do?"
】
Emperor Liang did not speak.
The third prince thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Father, I think we cannot let our brother down."
Without waiting for Emperor Daliang to speak, the third prince said to himself: "In fact, there was no right or wrong in that matter at the beginning, but now that my brother has done a lot for Daliang, Daliang cannot let him down. This truth is actually very simple.
, Father must also know."
"If I don't kill him, the country will be shaken, and then the demon tribe will go south and become rampant outside, and the world will no longer have the surname Chen. So what?" Emperor Liang looked at the bright moon hanging high in the night sky and said calmly.
The third prince was startled and murmured: "Is this possible?"
Emperor Liang turned his head and looked at his young son. There was an emotion in his eyes that was not easy to detect. Then he looked at him and asked: "If you sit in my position, if you don't kill him, the country will be overthrown.
How would you choose?"
The third prince raised his head and looked at his father, who would never say so many words to him on weekdays. He hesitated for a long time, but could not say a word.
Emperor Liang looked at him and did not press any further questions.
A father and son are at odds with each other and are speechless.
…
…
When Chen Chao woke up, it was already midnight, and there were stars in the night sky. The sweet potatoes that were left behind had already become cold, but Xie Nandu had not returned yet.
However, Chen Chao saw someone in the yard.
A scholar.
Wei Xu is the most famous scholar in the capital and even in the world, but he is not the most knowledgeable and great scholar.
The most knowledgeable scholar is naturally the dean of the academy, and he can only be the dean of the academy.
If Chen Chao remembered correctly, this should be the second time he spent time alone with the dean of the academy.
It's been a long time since the last time.
This meeting seemed very unexpected, because Chen Chao had not expected such a thing, but it did not seem so sudden, because the dean took the initiative to appear here.
Chen Chao stood up and subconsciously touched the handle of the knife, not caring what the dean would think.
The dean said: "You are not a good guest. You must know that this is an academy. How can anyone go to someone else's house and still want to draw a sword?"
Chen Chao smiled slightly, but still did not release his hand from the handle of the knife. He just said: "The dean is in a superb state and appears again at this moment. I am just a little scared."
"What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that I will kill you? If this is really the case, can you still wake up?" The dean did not take it seriously and said to himself: "If I really kill you, will this girl still recognize me as her husband?
?”
Chen Chao frowned and said, "The dean may not really care about this kind of thing."
"Then what do you think I care about? This world? What is there to care about this kind of thing? It's all you people named Chen, so what difference does it make who sits on the throne?" The dean laughed at himself, looking like
I really don't care much about this.
Chen Chao shook his head and said calmly: "If this is really the case, why did the dean appear here and why did he say these things?"
After hearing this, the dean frowned slightly, and then said with some emotion: "It seems that you are much more mature than before. Well, your level has also improved a lot. But now, even though you are holding the handle of the knife, the knife is still there.
It's really funny in other people's hands." Chen Chao remained silent.
"That girl has been gone for a long time and hasn't come back yet. I think she was talking about something very important. You can guess some of it if you think about it." The dean looked at Chen Chao and said straight to the point: "You know, there are countless pairs of eyes watching now.
You, waiting for you to make your choice."
Ever since the rumors spread, ever since Chen Chao returned to the Divine Capital, everything started.
This is a story that involves many people, but what is really important in the story is actually the choice of two people.
Two people named Chen may determine the future direction of this world because of their choices.
Chen Chao said: "Sometimes I actually don't know what she will do."
The dean smiled and said: "What she will do will probably be based on what you do. If you are hesitant at the moment, she will naturally not do anything. But you have to know that time waits for no one. Many times,
Once you hesitate, you will miss many good opportunities and may not have good results.”
Chen Chao frowned slightly, but did not speak. Behind Xie Nandu, there is the Xie family and the academy. The Xie family is one of the largest aristocratic families in Daliang, and the academy is an extremely important existence in Daliang. If both parties choose to stand behind Xie Nandu, and Xie Nandu
Choose to stand behind Chen Chao.
So it is not impossible to subvert this world.
What's more, there are still so many old ministers secretly.
Chen Chao asked curiously: "Isn't the dean a friend of His Majesty?"
The dean of the academy looked at Chen Chao, hesitated for a long time, and finally said: "But your father and I are also very good friends. We met him earlier than we met His Majesty."
Very few people know about this relationship, and most of those who know about it have become the dust of history.
"Your father is actually a very good scholar. If he were still alive, he would be the most knowledgeable scholar in the world. Many times, when I have many questions that I don't understand, I would ask him, and he would always be able to figure it out.
Once we get the answer, we will naturally become friends.”
The dean was somewhat nostalgic. Most of his old friends from those days are no longer here.
Chen Chao said: "In this case, when His Majesty raised troops, you didn't seem to have done anything."
The dean said: "The nephew wanted to kill the uncle, and the uncle killed the nephew in return. Even I didn't know how to do this kind of thing, not to mention they are all my friends, so I had no choice but to do nothing and just stand aside.
Watch."
Many times, it is difficult to make a choice, but Chen Chao has experienced it many times, so he has deep feelings about it.
Chen Chao asked again: "In this case, why do you have to stand up now?"
The dean looked at Chen Chao and said, "Because I heard some news recently."
Chen Chao already knew what the dean was talking about.
"If one of my friends kills another friend, then as his friend, I will naturally help him avenge himself."
There was some confusion in the dean's eyes, "But I can't understand it and can't judge whether it is true or false, so I want to ask you."
Chen Chao smiled bitterly and said: "How long can this junior have lived? How can I see things more clearly than you?"
The dean shook his head and said: "Sometimes after living for a long time, you will fall into the quagmire, and you will be blinded by a leaf, but you can't see clearly. You are still young, and maybe your thoughts based on your heart are very correct."
Chen Chao asked: "Will you believe my answer?"
The dean nodded and said, "I think so."
