The third prince Xuan Le looked at Zhu Tianjiang in shock. Is this guy planning to rebel? Otherwise, how could he dare to say such treasonous words in front of him?
"Bold Zhu Tianjiang, if you say this, you know that you are committing a serious crime of being executed. If Xuan Le tells this to my father, you will be cut into pieces." The third prince Xuan Le stood up and said,
He looked at Zhu Tianjiang with anger on his face.
Zhu Tianjiang smiled nonchalantly and looked at the two guards brought by Xuan Le. As soon as they drew their swords, Zhu Yi and Xia Qing stepped forward and took a small half step. Don't look at this small half step.
But one on the left and one on the right protected Zhu Tianjiang in the middle.
"Your Highness Xuan Le, haha, you have no sense of humor at all. What did I just say? Look, I scared you. Don't just raid your home and make yourself look like a gangster." Zhu Tianjiang picked up the wine glass with a smile.
"Hmph! You just tempted me to overthrow my father, do you still want to make excuses?" The third prince glared at Zhu Tianjiang.
Zhu Tianjiang looked at the third prince in surprise, "Did I say that just now? Why don't I remember it? Zhu Yi Xia Qing, did I say that just now?"
Zhu Yi and Xia Qing shook their heads like rattles, saying that compared with their usual words, Zhu Daguan was simply praising the emperor just now. You must know that when Zhu Tianjiang is usually angry, even women from the eighth generation of the royal family dare to greet him.
aside.
"Sir, I seem to have heard you read a poem just now." Zhu Yi said without shame.
"Yes, it is still a poem praising love." Xia Qing also said.
The three of them sang in harmony, especially Zhu Tianjiang's scoundrel expression, which made the third prince Xuan Le go crazy.
"You~! You Zhu Tianjiang, do you just want to amuse me today?" The third prince Xuan Le slapped the table angrily.
"Hey, I don't dare to amuse your dignified Third Highness. Xuan Le, I think it's better for the four of them to step down and let us have a good talk. What do you think?"
"Hmph! Different ways of doing things don't work together. Let's take our leave!" After the third prince finished speaking, he withdrew and was about to leave.
"Hey~ Don't bother~! If you leave, the second prince Xuan Can will go crazy with joy. I mean, third prince, aren't you afraid of me?" Zhu Tianjiang grabbed the third prince's sleeve and shamelessly said
He grabbed the third prince by force.
The third prince Xuan Le did not have the martial arts foundation of the eldest prince Xuan Ming. He was pulled by Zhu Tianjiang and could not get away even if he tried. The two guards were keeping a close eye on the third prince and would take action as soon as they got a hint.
However, after the third prince heard Zhu Tianjiang's words, his heart moved and he wanted to see what he wanted to do. Xuan Le winked at the two guards and asked them to put away their knives.
"Zhu Tianjiang, I, Xuan Le, am an upright person, so why should I be afraid? I, the prince, will attend your invitation tonight. If something happens, you will not be able to escape responsibility." Xuan Le snorted coldly and sat down again.
Zhu Tianjiang laughed twice, turned around and looked at Zhu Yi and said, "What, you two take these two brothers to the bridge and wait. If you feel bored, the four brothers at the bridge are just two
Mahjong table.”
"Yes!" Zhu Yi agreed, reaching out to grab the third prince's guard, "Brother, please!"
How could the guard let Zhu Yi grab his wrist? He flipped his palm, snorted and cut towards Zhu Yi's wrist. Zhu Yi moved his arm laterally and pointed downwards with both fingers towards the Neiguan point on the opponent's wrist. Neither did the guard.
Suddenly, his other hand grabbed Zhu Yi's forearm like an eagle's claw. He moved both hands, and Zhu Yi's other hand also moved. The four arms intertwined and clicked together.
Zhu Yi walked downstairs with his legs slightly bent, and his body suddenly shook. The opponent stepped back two steps, stepped suddenly with his right foot, and his official boots sank slightly into the ground, forcing his body to stop.
The two guards looked at Zhu Yi in surprise. In this brief exchange, the guard was obviously weaker than Zhu Yi. The other guard did not make a move because Xia Qing held four money darts in his hand and kept looking at him.
Stare at him.
The third prince Xuan Le's face turned a little blue, and he had lost the cool and calm attitude just now. Xuan Le glared at Zhu Tianjiang and gritted his teeth. It seemed that the other party really wanted to keep him. In this case, then look at you Zhu Tianjiang.
What exactly does Tianxiang want to do?
"Go and wait at the bridge!" the third prince ordered coldly. He did not believe that Zhu Tianjiang dared to do anything to him.
The two guards glanced at Zhu Tianjiang, put one hand on the handle of the knife, and carefully followed Zhu Yixiaqing out of Wangbo Pavilion in the middle of the lake.
As soon as the two guards left, the third prince Xuan Le calmed down a lot. The two sat facing each other, Xuan Le looked at Zhu Tianjiang calmly, wondering what this kid wanted to do tonight.
Zhu Tianjiang put away his playful smile, as if he suddenly changed into a different person, and said seriously, "Third brother, to be honest, among you four royal brothers, you are the only one who is worthy of being the emperor."
Xuan Le's heart moved, "Oh? So, my fourth brother Xuan Zhu is not a suitable candidate in your mind?"
Zhu Tianjiang smiled and shook his head, "If the fourth child becomes the emperor, it may be beneficial to the people because he has a good heart. However, I am afraid it will be detrimental to the country and the country, and he may be able to destroy the country. You are different, because you
You have scheming and means. If you become the emperor, you may be a wise king or a tyrant. So, I feel very embarrassed."
Xuan Le was stunned. He was a little confused by Zhu Tianjiang's words, "Zhu Tianjiang, what do you mean by this?"
From Xuan Le's eyes, Zhu Tianjiang saw a trace of expectation. Zhu Tianjiang secretly sneered in his heart. From the beginning, he used a rogue method to disrupt Xuan Le's normal rhythm. If he didn't do this,
Xuan Le is quick-thinking and calm, and Zhu Tianjiang may not be his opponent in a head-to-head confrontation. But now, the initiative has completely fallen into Zhu Tianjiang's hands.
"Your Highness, let's speak frankly. If you don't come to deal with me, you are 50% sure that you will be able to sit on the throne in the future. But if you continue to deal with me, I am afraid you are not even 10% sure."
Xuan Le's heart tightened, but he asked calmly on the surface, "Zhu Tianjiang, I don't understand what you mean, but your words make me feel like you are threatening. Don't look at me.
Fighting for fame and fortune, but never being threatened by others."
"Haha, third child, you are not real, this is bad, very bad." Zhu Tianjiang shook his head and looked at the calm lake, reaching out to move a palace lantern behind him.
"Zhu Tianjiang, there is no need to play charades with this prince. If you have any questions, just say it directly. But this prince also tells you that no matter whether you support the fourth child or not, he is not qualified to compete with me for the throne." Xuan Le said with a sneer.
, gently open the folding fan in your hand.
Zhu Tianjiang nodded, "You are right. If I didn't support Xuanzhu, I'm afraid he would have no hope at all. But if you continue to fight against me, the future emperor will definitely not be you, nor the fourth child, only the fourth child."
Can be ###Xuancan."
When the third prince was about to speak, Zhu Tianjiang raised his hand to stop him and said, "Third Highness, don't worry, please listen to what I have to say. When the old queen mother was still alive, there were rumors that she would make the second prince Xuan Can the emperor and succeed him as Emperor Wu.
After the Zhou family was defeated, Emperor Chengwu did not relegate ### to the cold palace. Instead, he received the same reward as the rest of you. Do you know why? Because in the heart of your father, Emperor Chengwu, ##
# He has the qualifications to sit on the throne, but not now. Emperor Chengwu first excluded the eldest brother Xuan Ming from being eligible to succeed, but let him hold military power in order to ensure that the future emperor would ascend the throne. The second prince Xuan Can's biological mother is the queen,
He is in charge of the harem. He has also brought the eldest prince under his command. It can be said that he has far surpassed you and the fourth son on the road to imperial power. As long as I am here, Xuan Ming and Xuan Can’s targets are me, Zhu Tianjiang and the fourth son Xuanzhu.
.Once I fall, I dare say they can slap you to death with just a flip of their hands. Your Highness, Third Prince, think about it carefully. With your intelligence, you shouldn't do this."
After Zhu Tianjiang finished speaking, he picked up his chopsticks with a slight smile, picked up his favorite side dishes from the plate and put them into his mouth. He wanted to give Xuan Le some time to think about it. If he said this to the eldest prince, it would be totally unacceptable.
Playing the harp to an ox. But Zhu Tianjiang felt that the third prince's intelligence should be able to see through the powerful relationship.
Xuan Le completely lost his calmness just now. Zhu Tianjiang's words were like bells, echoing in his ears. Just as Zhu Tianjiang said just now, ### Xuan Can did have a great advantage. Xuan Le looked at Zhu Tianjiang
Tianjiang, he was wondering whether Zhu Tianjiang was threatening him or if he had other intentions.
"Brother Tianjiang, what you said makes sense, but there is one thing you are wrong about. I, Xuan Le, am an upright person and an upright person, so how can I deal with your opinions?" Xuan Le shook his folding fan lightly, with approval in his eyes.
. He regretted that he did not use some means to get Zhu Tianjiang under his command. If such a talent came to help him, why not worry about achieving a great cause.
Zhu Tianjiang looked at Xuan Le and said in his heart that you are so paralyzed, why are you pretending to be one-headed? If I don't tear off your fake face, it seems that you won't make this deal with me sincerely.
"Third brother, the moonlight is beautiful tonight. We two brothers are drinking and chatting here. Shouldn't there be a singer?" Zhu Tianjiang said with a slight smile.
The third prince Xuan Le looked at Zhu Tianjiang strangely. He felt that this man was not only shrewd, but also a little crazy. He talked incoherently, and when he got to the main topic, how could he come up with a topic for singing a ditty.
"Look, whatever you say is coming, here comes the ditty singer." Zhu Tianjiang said, stretching out his hand.
The third prince Xuan Le turned around in confusion. On the lake not far away, a small boat came over. An old man wearing a bamboo hat sat on the bow of the boat. There were four chairs in the cabin, and four people were sitting on them. On the boat
A row of lanterns was hung, illuminating the faces of the four people clearly.
When Xuan Le saw the faces of the four people clearly, his face suddenly turned pale. Xuan Le was shaken and the folding fan in his hand fell to the ground.
