In his memory, King An never called him "brother" seriously. One of them was the crown prince and the other was the sixth prince. When they were young, they didn't know much about the world, although the sixth prince's mother often warned him not to go with the prince.
Too close, but the sixth prince actually liked this quiet and aloof brother of the prince.
The prince is different from other princes. He always stays alone in his palace. The sixth prince once went to his palace. It was a quiet and lonely palace. Later, the prince went to Queen Mother Yang and was arranged to live there.
In a side palace that was equally quiet and elegant, they rarely played together anymore because the relationship between the sixth prince's mother, Ji Shi, and Empress Dowager Yang, who was then Concubine Yang, was very tense.
The sixth prince had been smart and smart since he was a child, and was quite popular with the late emperor. Even the Taifu praised the sixth prince that he would become a great person in the future. However, at that time, the prince always sat silently in his seat, watching others flattering the sixth prince.
That was the first time that His Highness the Crown Prince felt the difference between himself and the Sixth Prince, or it should be said that it was the first time that he felt whether there was a mother-in-law, the power of the mother-in-law's family, and whether the mother-in-law valued his relationship.
After a long time, the sixth prince suddenly discovered something. The prince often read alone in the library, and the uncle he was reading had a wide range of knowledge, from historical records and military art, to folk history, from criminal law regulations, to poetry and songs, that is, from
From that moment on, the sixth prince suddenly felt that he was not the only outstanding prince, but that his brother, the prince, was actually a truly powerful person who was hiding deep.
The sixth prince, Qi An, has always been a competitive person. Because of the example of the prince Qi Han, the more he studied seriously, others thought he was doing it because he wanted to be praised by the emperor. Only he knew that what he wanted was the prince.
Praise from my brother.
In every young man's heart, there is an object of worship. In Qi'an's heart, his prince brother is the object of his worship. For the prince brother who is only two years older than him but has read many books, he is
Respected from the bottom of my heart.
So later, when Ji Mengxian, who was born in a noble family in the capital, got together with his prince brother, Qi An was happy because he also liked Ji Mengxian, but he believed that only his prince brother was worthy of Ji Mengxian. They were just like each other together.
A match made in heaven.
But what happened next shocked him and made him heartbroken.
He was heartbroken, not only because his beloved woman was sacrificed and married away, but what he was even more heartbroken about was that his upright and calm prince brother actually chose to become a ruthless person. He hurt not only Ji Mengxian, but also the person he had always admired.
With his royal brother.
Qi An has always been a person with a clear distinction between love and hatred. From then on, he hated Qi Han extremely. Even though he later ascended the throne, the hatred in Qi An's heart did not subside. On the contrary, the hatred deepened
Buried deep in his heart, it became the driving force that made him strong.
In fact, Qi An always believed that the matter between Qi Han and Ji Mengxian was a compromise made by Qi Han to the late emperor in order to prevent the Ji family from continuing to expand its power. Until he got this letter a year ago, he
Then he suddenly realized that Qi Han was willing to sacrifice Mengxian, and the more important reason was that she held such an important thing in her hands. He believed that this was Qi Han's fearful and heartless decision, but he did not expect that he had been kept in the dark all this time.
The person inside is not just him.
I don't know why, seeing Qi Han in such pain, after the joy in Qi's heart passed, he felt heartache again. This kind of pain penetrated into the bone marrow, making him more and more crazy.
"Who told you about Lu Ming?" It is no exaggeration to say that Qi Han's eyes are full of murderous intent now, a strong and cruel murderous intent, as if he wants to kill Prince An.
"Do you think you are the only one who has grown up in these years?" King An stretched out his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, "I have seen him, and his facial features are very similar to those of the emperor when he was young. The emperor thought that I, King An, was really a fool.
What?"
Of course, what's more important is the emperor's attitude towards Lu Ming. A mere doctor can come in and out of the palace at will, and even when he goes to the north to treat the plague, he can come in and out of the military camp at will. Even if he is Dongfang Ye's friend, he can't be so casual. He asked
, what Lu Ming is holding was given to him by King Ling, but this token representing the emperor is not something that King Ling can get. This is clearly the emperor's private instruction.
Furthermore, Lu Ming's reputation among the people over the years had not been deliberately created by someone. Even though he was highly skilled in medicine, he was still young. How could he have such prestige? King An naturally followed the clues and found the emperor.
How could he, the majestic emperor of the Daying Kingdom, manage such a reputation for a small doctor? Isn't this the biggest doubt?
Once there was something suspicious, King An sent many people to inquire around, and naturally he knew Lu Ming's origin. After careful consideration, he came to a conclusion that was very likely. Of course, he finally confirmed his guess.
However, Qi Han's reaction now is that he did not expect that the person he wanted to support to become the crown prince turned out to be a son raised privately. No wonder he has never participated in the fights between several princes in these years.
He was even optimistic about the outcome of their fight. It turned out that he had already chosen who would be the crown prince, and now the fight between the princes was just a pawn in his hand.
"I'm afraid you are the only one who can use your sons as chess pieces, right?" King An was not proficient in the art of emperors, but he had been in official circles for many years, so he was naturally familiar with such things.
"Qi'an, you think your life is too long, right?" Such words were not something the Ling Emperor would normally say, but at this time he said such impulsive words.
"After fighting for so many years, I am tired." King An stood up unsteadily. Their brothers had been fighting for so many years. He was indeed tired. Whether it was life or death, on this day, he came to a conclusion.
Bar.
"Do you think I will sit back and wait for you to take action?" Emperor Ling's loss of composure only lasted a moment. At this time, he had already re-armed himself under the mask of calmness. He looked at Prince An coldly,
"Over the years, your growth has indeed been objective, but it's a pity..."
This was the compliment that King An had been looking forward to for so many years, but he cared more about the emperor's words of 'a pity'.
"What's a pity?" King An narrowed his eyes and asked hastily.
"It's a pity that you are a loser after all." Ling Emperor walked up to him in a few steps and looked at him condescendingly, "You lost before, but now you are still a loser."
Unexpectedly, King An suddenly smiled lightly, turned his eyes to the back, and said with a touch of excitement in his tone: "That's not necessarily the case."
The person who walked out from behind the pillar outside the door was Mu Liuyun dressed in white.
