Chapter 1145 Fourth, let the second brother help you this time!
The prince smiled again: "Today is a good day for me. If you frown like this, I will be angry. I will punish you with two more drinks."
When the fourth master saw the prince's expression, he knew that he was not happy.
Because there was no smile in his eyes at all, but more like full of bitterness.
The fourth master originally wanted to ask, but in the end, he just curled his lips and said: "Okay, I won't go home until I'm drunk."
After hearing this, the prince smiled happily: "Well, today it's just you and me, no one else."
The fourth master nodded in agreement, and they went to Yuqing Palace side by side.
Seeing the two of them looking like this, the people around them opened their mouths in surprise.
I thought that before the crown prince was restored, the Fourth Master was a popular candidate for the crown prince.
After the crown prince returns to power, the two men will definitely be incompatible, and maybe the situation in the court will be reshuffled.
I just didn't expect that, looking at them like this, the relationship between the two brothers didn't seem to change at all.
For a moment, Ba Ye was so suppressed that he couldn't breathe.
While talking about the fourth master and the prince, while the servants were preparing meals, the prince took the fourth master to his study.
Mysteriously, I found a box from under the table.
The fourth master looked at her with some confusion, but the prince smiled: "These are orphan treasures. I will take them out for you to take a look at today. It is said that this is the first time you have seen these things."
After hearing this, the Fourth Master raised his eyebrows and said: "So, my brother is going to have his eyes opened today."
The prince was in a good mood and opened the box directly.
The fourth master looked carefully and saw many little figures carved out of wood. He looked at the prince in surprise: "This..."
Could his second brother's treasure be these pieces of wood? The carvings seemed a bit rough, and some were ugly.
The prince smiled heartily and said with a little show off: "This is Gu's treasure. I have learned carving in the palace these days, but I have been very careful. Look, this is Gu's first carving, and this is the last."
One, are you making rapid progress?"
After saying that, the prince handed the wooden carving to the fourth master. The fourth master stretched out his hand to take it and looked at it carefully. It was indeed a rapid progress.
In the end, although the workmanship is not particularly detailed, you can still see what it is, and the details are handled fairly well.
He immediately praised: "Second brother is smart."
"I've been enjoying wood carving lately. Look, this carving is you, doesn't it look like it?" the prince said, pointing to another wood carving.
The Fourth Master looked over attentively. He couldn't see his nose and eyes clearly, but looking at the figure, they were quite similar. However, when he praised him, the Fourth Master just felt a little speechless.
The prince smiled again: "You are still like this, you haven't changed at all. If you don't want to say it, you won't even say a word. Can't you coax your second brother and say that your voice is not good enough?"
The fourth master choked for a moment at the prince's words, then nodded and said: "Second brother is indeed very similar."
The prince shook his head and laughed, then pointed to the other little people with great interest and said: "This is me, this is the sixth brother, the third brother, the fifth brother, Yujue..."
The fourth master looked over and sculpted to the back, his technique gradually became more and more proficient.
"Second brother, you'd better keep these villains away and don't let others look at them."
The prince curled his lips with some dissatisfaction: "Why are you so unable to take action?"
The Fourth Master added: "Don't you think this carving you made looks like those puppets used to suppress nightmares?"
After hearing this, the prince was stunned for a moment, then rolled his eyes and said: "Fortunately, I have known you for many years, and I know that you are teasing me. If it were anyone else, I would be confused." Then he pointed at the wooden sculptures.
The villain said: "My skills are already very good now. I will refine them later and put them on the shelf after coloring. They will look very good."
While talking, the meal was laid out.
The two simply started eating in the study room.
After three drinks and five meals, both of them were a little tipsy, and their words became more and more careless.
At this time, the prince was seen grabbing the fourth master's arm, with a smile on his face and serious eyes: "Fourth brother, let the second brother help you this time."
After hearing this, Fourth Master slowly raised his head, with a little confusion in his eyes.
As if he was afraid that he wouldn't hear clearly, the prince came closer to him and said, "How about I ask my second brother to help you sit in that position?"
When the fourth master heard what the prince said clearly, he almost woke up from the wine in an instant. His handsome features, which were originally a bit lazy, suddenly became twisted.
Then Fourth Master stood up, cupped his fists and wanted to kneel down.
The prince stopped him before this happened, his brows furrowed.
"What are you doing? Who wants you to kneel down?"
The fourth master lowered his head: "Second brother, why did you say this? These words must not be said easily. If others hear it..."
"What can others do if they hear this? I feel that the court is so boring now that I can't even tell the truth?
Others have always doubted the relationship between you and me. They feel that Gu is too big-hearted to tolerate you, so today I want to let them take a look.
Even in this situation, you and I, brothers, are still the same as before."
The prince slapped the Fourth Master on the shoulder with a bang, a smile on his face, and looked extremely happy.
"Second brother..." The fourth master looked at him like this and felt a little sad. How many years has it been since the second brother smiled so heartily?
The prince picked up the wine glass, drank another glass in a circle, and then swayed it to the fourth master:
"Fourth brother, I only ask you one thing. When you sit in that position, can you let Gu Ye take a good look at this world?
I want to be one person and one horse, to appreciate the graceful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River, to listen to the soft words of Wu Nong that people often say, to see the frozen state of the northern country for thousands of miles, and to see the solitary smoke in the desert outside the Great Wall, and the sunset over the long river.
What does it look like?"
As he spoke, the corners of his lips curled up, he opened his arms and closed his eyes slightly, as if he was already in such a world.
The fourth master had never seen the prince like this before. He was stunned: "Second brother, you..." So this is what the second brother wished for?
Even though the fourth master knew that the prince no longer had any attachment to the throne, seeing his current situation, the fourth master still felt a sour feeling in his heart.
When his second brother opened his eyes and looked at him, his eyes were full of expectations for the future.
The fourth master suddenly tilted his head and smiled, and all his thoughts turned into just one word: "Okay."
After hearing what he said, the prince became more and more cheerful. At first, the wine glass in his hand was a little small, and he directly lifted two jars placed next to the table.
The two of them each held a jar and began to drink. Although no one spoke, the atmosphere in Yuqing Palace was exceptionally peaceful.
