Chapter 1: Killing Brother

The wine is the best "Yu Yaochun", and the dishes are the 18 imperial dishes made by the palace's first imperial chef. The forty-nine princes and grandchildren of the Dakang Kingdom sat in turn. I was in the thirteenth place on the left, which was exactly in a position that connected the upper and lower. Next to my left is the largest emperor Long Qizheng. He is thirty-nine years old this year and has a slightly grayish temple. Next to my right is my twenty-fourth emperor brother Long Yinxiang, who is eighteen years old this year and has just been named King An by the emperor of the Dakang Kingdom, that is, my father, Emperor Xinde.

Long Yinli, the king of kings, sat in the middle. He raised his wine glass and said loudly: "My brothers and nephews, today is the Lantern Festival. Under the rule of my father, my country is prosperous and peaceful, singing and dancing, and there is a peaceful scene everywhere. Let us wish our father good fortune and longevity and unification of the country as soon as possible!"

There was a cheer sound in the palace of Qinwang, and everyone seemed extremely excited. I saw hope in their eyes. This situation reminded me of last year. At that time, we were drinking at Long Yinxue, Zhongwang. King Zhongwang's voice was as heroic as Qinwang today. He finally survived the three emperors at the age of fifty-two and became the largest among the princes, but his body did not succeed until now. Last summer, he died of a sudden stroke.

If I remember correctly, King Guan is already forty-nine years old this year, which is exactly the same number as the people present today. His health has always been very good. It is easy for him to bend the bow and shoot the eagle and fight the lion with bare hands. Maybe he can really wait until the day he succeeds to the throne.

"Yinkong! Why don't you drink?" The King of War noticed me who was dazed and dazed.

Then I returned to reality: "Fifth Brother...I can't drink..."

King Mu Long Yinshang, who was sitting beside the king, laughed: "I still call him the fifth brother, we will be renamed the prince soon!" The people around him agreed in unison.

A look of pride was inevitably revealed on his face, and his lower jaw was slightly raised, and he really had the power of a prince: "Yinkong! How old are you this year?"

"Sixteen!" I replied humbly.

King Mu smiled again and said, "Sixteen years old! When I was as old as you, I could drink three liters of wine, and I could even drink five women after drinking..."

Hearing this, other princes and grandsons burst into laughter. When talking about this topic, the atmosphere between us easily became harmonious.

King An took the initiative to defend me and said, "Brothers! Yinkong is still young, and his father once said that we must not drink alcohol before we were eighteen years old, so let him drink tea!"

Everyone remembers this sentence from his father, but the original sentence should be: No drinking is allowed before he is appointed to be a king. According to the Dakang law, the prince will only have the right to be a king at the age of 18, so King An has this statement.

But I know better than anyone that it is difficult for me to be the king. My mother, Concubine Ping, was only one step away from becoming the queen, but later she was suddenly injected into the cold palace and died of depression. I remember the year when she died, I was only eight years old, and eight years passed in a blink of an eye. I didn’t know the real cause of my mother’s death, so my father would not tell me that according to common sense, she should be a victim of the struggle in the harem. After my mother’s death, I grew up in the cold palace. During the long eight years, I was the maid Yan Ping, my mother and the eunuch Yi An. I met my father three times in eight years. I was worshiping heaven and ancestors, and I didn’t have the chance to talk to him every time. Maybe he didn’t remember having a son like me.

The Lantern Festival every year is the day when I can reunite with other princes. As long as no one of us succeeds to the throne, this form will continue.

The episode just now ended soon, and everyone immediately forgot about my existence and drank one by one. Only I slowly savored the herbal tea that had already been cold.

The King of Residents gently tapped his palms, and the sound of silk and bamboo in the hall sounded leisurely. A group of nearly a hundred pretty girls with dovetail-shaped hair hanging down, wearing translucent, lightweight and thin long gowns, danced gracefully into the hall, singing and dancing, and made various graceful postures, which taught people and gods to seize them.

I couldn't help but immerse myself in this sea of ​​joy.

The music gradually weakened, and the hundred beauties gathered gracefully in the middle, a breathtaking sound of flute rose gently, the girls danced in long sleeves, and countless beautiful petals flew gently between the sky and the earth, and the refreshing fragrance of flowers was fascinating. The hundred beauties had blooming buds spreading around. In the sky, a beautiful girl in white appeared like a fairy, like a orchid in the valley. With her light and graceful and erratic dance posture, her wide sleeves opened and closed, further highlighting her beautiful appearance. Everyone looked at her graceful dance posture intoxicatedly, almost forgot to breathe. The girl's beautiful eyes were flowing, and everyone present was beating heartbroken, and they thought that she was looking at her.

At this time, the sound of the flute suddenly turned sharply. The girl took the toe of her right foot as the axis. She relaxed her long sleeves, and her delicate body rotated, and became faster and faster. Suddenly, she flew up from the ground. Hundreds of beauties formed a circle, waved their jade hands, and dozens of blue ribbons rose out. It seemed that blue waves appeared in the hall. The girl flew over the silk belt, with her slender feet lightly and her clothes fluttered, just like a fairy in Lingbo. The hall was applause, and the sound of surprise was endless. The singing and dancing girls left one by one with everyone's praise.

The King of Conscientious could not help but praise: "This dance is only available in heaven, and it is rare to hear it in the world!" King Mu laughed twice, and stood up with a swaying scene: "This is the scene, the emperor is a poem... the meaning is great, but I am a common man... the meaning is great... I went to pee..."

Everyone burst into laughter when they saw his stupidity. King Mu stumbled to my table, his feet suddenly became weak, his body lost balance and leaned against my table, causing the wine and food on my table to mess up. Because I couldn't dodge, my body was wet with wine and vegetable soup.

The King of Residents seemed to be drunk, and took the lead and laughed: "One of you is drunk, the other one doesn't drink, so let's go back first..."

I was just thinking about this and hurriedly got up and said goodbye.

It was snowing outside at some point, and King Mu walked staggeringly in front of me, chasing the singer and dancer in front of me. The girl in white in the lead dance seemed to have had a premonition and quickly accelerated her pace.

King Mu quickly chased after him, stepped on the girl's white long skirt, and the girl almost fell down with a cry. The other dancers were so scared that they fled one by one, no one was concerned about her at all.

King Mu laughed loudly and reached out to grab the girl's sleeve: "Little Guy! Your ancestors have accumulated virtue, I have fallen in love with you!"

The girl was so scared that she was disgraced: "Prince...please... let me go..."

King Mu grabbed her sleeve and pulled it hard into his arms. The girl broke free with all her strength. The sleeve was actually ripped off by King Mu, revealing a piece of arm that was bullied by Frost and Snow. King Mu suddenly pulled her back and couldn't help but take a few steps back, and sat down on the ground. The girl took the opportunity to escape forward.

I stepped forward and helped King Mu up: "Brother! You are drunk, why don't I send you back."

King Mu pushed me away rudely: "What are you? A bastard with an identity... unknown! He dares to care about my nostalgia!"

Blood suddenly rushed into my brain. After all, he and I were born to a father. He actually cursed me with such vicious words.

I bit my lower lip hard and watched the abominable bastard stagger forward.

The girl was not familiar with the terrain of the Prince Qin Mansion. She was frightened and was lost in the back garden. In addition, she heard King Mu laughing wildly behind her, and she became more and more frightened. She tripped under her feet, twisted her ankle, fell on the snow. She wanted to get up from the ground, and she was already in unbearable pain and could not stand up at all.

King Mu walked towards her with a lewd smile: "Little Guaiguai, it seems that you want to fight me on the snow!"

The girl struggled to move back, tears were already shining in her beautiful eyes.

King Mu suddenly pounced on the girl's delicate body, and his fat body pressed down.

The girl cried and broke free with force. King Mu teared the girl's long skirt like a beast. He was full of heads and minds, and he didn't notice that I was quietly appearing behind him.

I raised a branch as thick as a wrist with both hands and slapped it hard behind King Mu's head. King Mu's body twitched, and then fell weakly on the girl.

With my help, the girl pushed away King Mu's fat body. Her long skirt was torn apart, revealing her crystal clear and flawless skin. I took off my long cloak and draped it on her body.

The garden was quiet and there was no one else, so I felt a little relieved.

I hugged King Mu's upper body and dragged it to the well in the southeast corner. The girl looked at me in confusion.

I whispered, "Hurry up and help me, or we both will die!"

The girl bit her lower lip hard and finally made a decision. She helped me drag King Mu's body next to the well. It was obvious that she was very scared and her delicate body was trembling.

I picked up King Mu's body with all my strength and stuffed his body into the well. When I heard the sound of water splashing, I breathed a sigh of relief. It was strange that after I killed King Mu, I didn't feel any fear.

The girl's pretty face turned bloodless and she might faint at any time. I hugged her delicate body and gave her invisible support: "Remember! Nothing happened!" My voice was extremely cold, and the girl nodded tremblingly, and I gently patted her shoulder: "Go back!"

"But... everyone else knows... King Mu is chasing me..." the girl reminded me.

I nodded: "I'll take you away!"

"Who?" someone shouted loudly in the direction of the garden gate, and our bodies were shocked at the same time.

A servant carrying a lantern walked towards us, Zhongfu, the general manager of the king.

When he saw that it was me and she hugged her, he couldn't help but smile. He must have thought that the youngest prince had actually started stealing fragrance and jade with his brothers on his back.

"Your Highness, have you seen King Mu?" Zhongfu came to find King Mu specifically, so I quickly calmed down: "He went to the toilet."

"It's strange! I didn't find him there!" Zhongfu turned around and was about to leave.

I suddenly covered my stomach: "Ouch! It hurts so much!"

Zhongfu hurriedly came to me: "Prince, what's wrong with you? I'll go and invite a doctor!"

"Forget it! You'll carry me over..." I pretended to be extremely painful.

Zhongfu turned around and squatted down. I punched him hard on the side of the neck. Zhongfu fainted in the snow without saying a word. It was much easier to pick up Zhongfu than King Mu. I asked the girl to take off Zhongfu's shoes and coat, and then threw him into the well.

The girl witnessed me killing two people, and even her teeth were trembling.

I was sure that no one appeared around me again. I calmly asked the girl to put on Zhongfu's clothes and shoes, and took her out of the garden, carefully erasing our footprints as we walked.

When I arrived at the corner corridor outside the garden, the crowd gradually increased. The girl deliberately bent down and hid beside me. Fortunately, no one paid attention to her appearance in the darkness.

When I arrived at the horse gallery, I saw the group of singing and dancing girls boarding the carriage. They belonged to the Palace Music Floor. This time, the King of Residents specially invited us to entertain us.

When they left one by one, I brought the girl to my carriage. This carriage was the shabby one of all the cars. The paint outside had peeled off many places, revealing the old wooden shafts, and the curtains on the carriage also changed from the original bright yellow to a dull gray-brown.

Yi An was sitting in the front of the car with his hands in his cotton jacket and was dozing. I coughed gently, and he hurriedly opened his eyes: "Your Highness, Prince..." He immediately noticed the girl beside me, his eyes full of surprise.

"Get out of here right now!" I took the girl's cold little hand and came to the car.

Yi An raised a whip in the air, and two old horses were driving on the snow with their old cars. No one would have thought that the youngest son of Emperor Xinde was sitting in this car. This was the highest treatment I could enjoy. The car was left by my mother back then. Although the years passed, the prosperity of the year could still be seen from the interior. This car was originally a four-horse, but the only one assigned by the main manager to Yi An was these two old horses. It was naturally much harder to pull the four-horse car with the power of the old horse.

The girl obviously hadn't fully recovered from the horror just now, so I gave her a kind smile: "I don't know what your name is yet?"

When she met my eyes, she hurriedly lowered her head: "I Caixue, thank you for the prince's rescue..."

I nodded lightly: "I don't remember saving you!"

She immediately heard the implicit sound of my strings, and her pale lips trembled because of fear, which made her look even more attractive and made people feel caring and loving.

I lifted up the curtain of the car. The night was deep, the auspicious snow was filled with windless jade. There were crowds of people walking on night, mixed with the hawking of various vendors. It was really lively. The whole capital was filled with a peaceful scene. I, who was living in the deep palace, hadn't seen such a scene for a long time.

There was a crowd in front of me and the carriage could no longer move forward. Yi An said in front of the car: "Your Highness, do you want to walk around Fusheng Lane?"

I shook my head: "Yi'an, you drive around Fusheng Lane and wait for me at the end of the street. I'll take the opportunity to take a look at the lantern market!"

Yi An agreed to hold the reins of the horse, and I held Caixue's little hand and walked out of the car one after another.

Passers-by walked on the snow with lights, and from a distance, the whole street looked like a flowing Milky Way. Caixue and I walked side by side. Perhaps the peaceful atmosphere around us infected Caixue, and her mood slowly relaxed.

The lanterns on the side of the road were filled with various riddles. I stopped and looked at it with interest, but saw a lotus lantern with a 'Sorrowful thoughts and thoughts as a sacred' guess. Two young men on the side were thinking hard. I smiled indifferently and said, "It seems to tell you that you have not been successful in your life!" An old man in yellow clothes suddenly turned around under the lamp.

He stared at me and said, "Why did the young master think of Xiangshan lay Buddhists' Pipa to solve this mystery?"

I said loudly: "There are words from the predecessors, but they are the correct way of the riddle. This riddle is obviously taken from the biography of "Records of the Grand Historian", referring to the Chu State's official Qu Yuan, who was defeated by the Chu State many times. King Huai's pro-Qin faction was unstable. His pro-Qin faction in Chu State rose up, and his anti-Qin stance was not adopted. When he saw King Huai, he sighed, "He was sad and thoughtful and became a sacred person!" The "Pipa Xing" by the lay Buddhist Xiangshan said that the pipa girl told her unsuccessful life experience through the music of "strings and strings covering the sound of the sounds and thoughts", which was somewhat similar to Qu Ping's situation back then."

The old man praised, "Young Master is indeed extraordinary!" He took the lotus lantern and sent it to Caixue's hand, and smiled and said, "It is also a matter of elegance to give the lantern to the beauty." The old man had extraordinary eyes and had already seen that Caixue was dressed as a man.

Caixue's pretty face turned slightly red, making her look even more beautiful and indifferent.

The old man said: "The young master is so outstanding in solving the topic. I wonder if he is interested in couplets?"

I smiled and said, "Sir, please speak!"

The old man said: "On the first day of this year, I accidentally got a first couplet. I thought about it for a long time and had not been able to get the right match. I would like to ask my son to give me some advice."

The old man straightened his back and chanted loudly: "Five hundred miles of Tianchi, rushing to his eyes. He covered his collars and shores, and was happy that the vast and vast space is vast. Look: the east is soaring, the west is soaring, the west is soaring, winding, and winding, and the south is soaring. Why not choose the winner to climb. Taking advantage of the crab island, Luozhou, combing the Xiang Xiang and the hair is misty. More frequently, the sky and reeds are dotted with some green feathers and danqi. Don't bear it alone: ​​the fragrant rice around; thousands of acres of clear sand; the hibiscus in the nine summers; the willows in the three springs."

My sword eyebrows were slightly frowned, but I didn't expect that the creeping tiger and hidden dragon in the downtown area, the seemingly ordinary old man had such talent and talent. I stomped back and forth a few steps. The upper couplet was ninety words long, with a grand momentum and a huge hero. How could the confrontation be so neat for a moment?

Caixue said softly: "The old man is indeed a good learner. My young master once taught me some ways to fight against each other. Can the young lady give me a try for you?"

The old man smiled and said, "You are a man who is not as good as a man, but it's okay to try!"
