The prince grabbed King Xin and forced him to admire the moon while talking about old things.
He talked about how he was a brother and brother in his early years, and how he repaid kindness with enmity.
King Xin sneered in his heart.
Brothers, friends, brothers? It was obviously his unilateral compliment and submission.
Repaying kindness with hatred is even more nonsense. Where does the kindness come from and where does the hatred come from? He is only fighting for what he deserves.
Everyone is a prince, so why is he, Jiang Sheng, so superior? In terms of talent and moral character, is he inferior to Jiang Sheng? When he was a child, he obviously understood it already, but because he couldn't steal Jiang Sheng's limelight, he could only pretend not to.
Understand. He can obviously handle the errands given by his father, but he has to step in for Jiang Sheng.
Why?
Over the years, he has done this and that for Jiang Sheng. When has Jiang Sheng ever given him any benefit?
Talking about favors with him now is ridiculous!
King Xin felt extremely disdainful.
"Second brother, tell me, what is wrong with you? Is it right for you to do this? Just say that the job of repairing the river was not fought for by Gu, but the result..."
It's okay that he didn't mention this, but once he mentioned it, King Xin became angry.
He twitched the corner of his mouth and said with or without a smile: "Brother, when I built the river, I almost stumbled. I was supposed to change the river course, but when I took office, I insisted on strengthening the embankment. Seeing that the flood season is approaching, no matter whether I continue to strengthen the embankment
It's still too late to change the river course. If I hadn't been lucky and the rainy season came that year, do you think I could still be standing here?"
The prince was dissatisfied: "What do you mean by this? Did Gu deliberately frame you? Everyone knows that Xiuhe is a fat errand. At that time, countless people asked Gu for favors. Don't you want it yourself?"
That said, how could King Xin admit that he had made a mistake in judgment? He wanted to take on this job, but only after he got it did he realize that it was not that simple.
He said: "My eldest brother has been following my father to manage the government. Others don't know the twists and turns. Don't you know the twists and turns? You know that this job is not easy to do, but you still encourage me to do it next. If I do it well, you will know people. If you do it,
It’s not a good result, but it’s because I’m incompetent. Brother’s calculations are really good!”
The prince was extremely angry. He really wanted to please his father at that time, but if he didn't trust him, how could he give him such an important job?
"My second brother is really trying to burn bridges. If this job hadn't been appreciated by my father, would you be where you are today?"
"That has nothing to do with you! I am the one who has the ability to settle things!"
"Haha, as expected, this is what you want. Now that I'm in the spotlight, I don't remember how I helped you all the time!"
The two brothers had a deep grudge. Although they both wanted to pretend, the bottom line was revealed after a few words, and they started to quarrel unknowingly.
It wasn't until a signal came to his ears that the prince calmed down.
By the way, he didn't come here to argue with King Xin today. He deliberately pretended to be drunk and brought King Xin here for another matter.
Thinking of this, the prince held back his temper and said, "Forget it, we are brothers after all, let's not talk about these things." He staggered and pretended to be dizzy, "Second brother, my head hurts so much..."
King Xin suspected that he was a demon, so he did not dare to approach him. He only supported him weakly and asked with concern: "What's wrong, brother? If you have a headache, please call the imperial physician immediately?"
"No, I just drank too much, so I just need to rest." The prince glanced and seemed to see a pavilion. He said happily, "Second brother, how about we go over there and have a rest?"
King Xin glanced over there warily and said: "The eldest brother is the prince, how can we ignore it? Why don't you go over there to rest, and I can call the imperial doctor for you?"
The prince said: "I told you that there is no need for an imperial doctor. Come on, let's go together." As he said this, he grabbed King Xin's hand and dragged him over there.
King Xin is 100% sure that there is something wrong here.
He has been with the prince for so many years, but he still doesn't know what he is capable of? If he has to go to that pavilion, there might be something waiting for him.
Can't go, absolutely can't go!
One of them refused to go, and the other insisted on dragging him there, and the two of them started to compete with each other.
When the prince saw that King Xin was suspicious, he immediately turned his face and shouted: "What are you waiting for?"
As soon as he finished speaking, King Xin saw a figure rushing out from nearby.
He was shocked, and then sneered: "Brother is really uneasy and kind-hearted. What's so fishy in the pavilion?"
At this point, the prince stopped acting and snorted: "Aren't you also ill-intentioned? Do you dare to say that you didn't follow Gu on purpose just now? Take him down quickly!"
Seeing the two guards rushing toward him like wolves and tigers, King Xin also shouted: "Are you all dead? Come on! Come on!"
Two figures came quickly from the other side of the path and rushed towards the two guards of the prince.
But they were two guards of King Xin.
The prince was furious: "You really don't have any trust in Gu. I asked you to go out for a walk and asked others to follow you!"
King Xin said coldly: "If I hadn't sent someone, wouldn't you have succeeded today? Facts have proved that you just don't have good intentions!"
When it comes to this, there is no need to say anything, let’s see who wins the fight!
The prince only regretted that he did not dare to use too many people for fear of alarming others.
For the same reason, King Xin was followed by only these two guards.
Two against two, the guards quickly started fighting.
The prince saw that time was passing little by little, and Concubine Pei might be arriving soon, so he was so anxious that he rolled up his sleeves.
If he cannot bring down King Xin before Concubine Pei arrives, his plan will be in vain!
By then, not only Concubine Pei will be in crisis, but King Xin will also be in trouble, and the emperor will definitely be furious. If these two people deal with him at the same time, it will be an even bigger trouble!
The prince couldn't bear such a risk and just wanted to bring down King Xin as soon as possible. He happened to touch a stone and called him over in desperation!
King Xin was almost hit by him. He turned his head and narrowly avoided it. His eyes widened in disbelief: "You, you hit me?"
"So what if I beat you? You deserve to be beaten for disrespecting your brother!" With that said, the prince pounced on him again.
King Xin was so angry that he couldn't help but fight back. He shouted at the same time: "Those courtiers should really come and see what a good brother the Crown Prince is!"
The prince twisted his hand and retorted: "I am the prince and your brother, why can't I teach you a lesson?"
"If you want to teach me a lesson, it depends on whether you have the ability!"
The more they scolded, the more angry they became. Other things were forgotten and they got into a ball regardless of their status.
Just then, footsteps came from the end of the path, and then the emperor's cold voice: "What are you doing?"
As if a basin of cold water was poured over their heads, both the prince and King Xin froze.
They unknowingly let go of each other and turned to look.
The emperor led his chamberlain and stopped not far away, looking at them coldly.
Standing next to him - Concubine Pei!
The prince was confused, and two big words flashed in his mind: It's over. (To be continued)
