Chapter 295 Good idea

In the night wind, the Yan brothers waited side by side at the gate of the palace.

Because of this accident, the Qixi Festival ended early, and the families were queuing up to leave the palace.

Prince Fu's Mansion went first, followed by Princess Jincheng and other royal relatives.The two of them are both foreign ministers and juniors, so they are ranked behind.

Seen from here, the lights were faint, casting shadows on the faces of the two of them.

Yan Cheng was out of his mind for a while, and suddenly asked: "You hate big brother so much?"

Yan Ling looked at the cars outside, and replied absent-mindedly: "No! What are you talking about, big brother?"

"You know what I'm talking about." Yan Cheng said coldly, "It is the crown prince who is in trouble today, so he can get away intact. If it were me, I would not be able to get away with the charge of assaulting a nobleman. At that time, I'm afraid I I will stay in the capital for you."

Yanling laughed: "Brother, you are thinking too seriously. Concubine Li's appearance was an accident. I just wanted to tease you. I didn't expect things to turn out like this."

"There is no concubine Li, but there is also a princess." Yan Cheng's voice did not have a trace of warmth, "You and the prince are as good as one person. The court can come and go at will, so it must not be difficult to bribe some people. I am not you, and I don't have strong martial arts , if you really go to Qiqiaolou, who knows what is waiting there? I'm afraid I can't tell clearly with my mouth all over my body."

Faced with his elder brother's accusation, Yan Ling acted a little casually: "Brother, you think too much, even if you are really caught, as long as you tell the whole story clearly, we and the prince will testify for you, and His Majesty will naturally forgive you. "

He also smiled: "Look, didn't I come out and plead guilty? You won't be implicated in custody."

"Are you afraid of offending the crown prince?" Yan Cheng sneered, "The crown prince was punished because of you, but he doesn't care about it right now, who knows if the old account will be brought up in the future."

"Brother!" After explaining several times to no avail, Yan Ling became unhappy, "Can't you trust me a little bit? From childhood to adulthood, good things come first, and I never say anything. But I want to play tricks on you once , it's worth it when you're so angry."

Yan Cheng smiled instead of anger: "Is this what you have in mind?"

"what?"

"I will do good things first, and it will be your turn to do bad things. Are you resentful that you can't go home?"

Yanling was silent for a while, then said: "I don't complain, but brother, you know why I can't go home. I don't ask you to be grateful, but at least think about it for me. Why can't you help me fight for it?" What? Maybe His Majesty agrees?"

"Is it because I won't fight for you? There is no chance!" Yan Cheng's tone was cold, "Father was reprimanded earlier, because of this he couldn't sleep well, and he didn't dare to keep a single piece of capture after defeating Xirong. Ask me to send them all to the capital. Do you know how much we sacrificed? After fighting for more than half a year, there is no supply, and Guanzhong is now living on free food. How dare we take the risk of angering His Majesty? Besides, this is also for you, Your Majesty accepts it. How can I treat you better after the ceremony, you don't appreciate this painstaking effort!"

"You're talking nonsense!" Yan Ling showed anger, "Father can't leave me here, no matter how hard life is, he will try to take me back! Otherwise, he wouldn't have given the excuse of being seriously injured last time to play for His Majesty." !"

"Yeah, so father tried it, what else can you complain about?" Yan Cheng said displeased, "Do you think I'm lying? Father's old injury relapsed, and he just saved his life when he was lying in bed. I still miss you! But you have also seen that not only did you fail to go home, you also got your father to be reprimanded, and you became guilty for your meritorious deeds. A Ling, you need to be more sensible. This is not for me, but for our Yan Family!"

Yan Ling curled her lips: "Anyway, it's okay for me to admit that I'm unlucky? Who made me the second child? Good things don't come your way, and you have to stand up if you need to sacrifice. I understand, you are the hope of the Yan family. As for me, just bet on me." Take your own life!"

"You..." Yan Cheng was furious, and he still had the same attitude after talking so much.

Yan Ling had already turned her head away, and said lightly, "Okay, it's our turn soon, let's talk when we go back."

Only then did Yan Cheng stop, the two brothers clearly stood together, but they didn't look at each other.

Not long after, the guard came to greet him.Yan Cheng's complexion eased, he was still as gentle and refined as usual, thanked them, and led his younger brother out of the palace.

After they left, a figure emerged from the shadow of the palace wall.

"General Liao!" The guard hurriedly saluted.

Liao Ying asked them to be on duty as usual, and strode to the Mingguang Hall by himself.

The emperor was resting with his eyes closed, and Concubine Li was waiting on him.After hearing the report, she immediately went to the side hall to watch tea with interest.

"Your Majesty." Liao Ying came in.

"How about it?"

Liao Ying lowered her voice and repeated the brother's conversation that she just heard.

The emperor opened his eyes and laughed: "The one who doesn't want Yan Er to go back is indeed Yan Da! His words are well-organized, but after all, isn't it just to let Yan Er stay at ease?"

Liao Ying hesitated for a moment, then replied: "Your Majesty heard what Prince Yan said is also reasonable. Last time Duke Zhao angered His Majesty, maybe this time he dare not mention it again."

The emperor waved his hand: "You don't know Yan Shu. He was a hostage in Beijing when he was young. I knew him when he was young. He is a bit noble. If he is willing to make such efforts to please me, he must also hope to take Yan Er back. Maybe he confessed The eldest son, take him back if he can, and don't force him if he can't. But Yanda doesn't want his younger brother to go back, so he obediently obediently and secretly disobeyed."

Liao Ying cupped his hands: "Your Majesty's analysis is reasonable, and I am taught."

The emperor continued: "It's no wonder that Yan Er is resentful. The Yan family passed on martial arts to the family, but Yan's great martial arts skills were not shown, and all the talents for fighting were given to Yan Er. When Yan Shu passes away, it is probably possible to inherit his mantle and lead the army. It's Yan Er. This kid is not afraid of anything, and dared to surprise Baersi with 3000 people, so how could he be willing to be inferior to his elder brother? It's only reasonable to be angry!"

Liao Ying bowed her head and said: "Just now when Shizi Yan said that he does not have strong martial arts, his tone was quite unwilling, and he was also quite jealous of his younger brother."

The emperor nodded and said in a firm tone, "So he is afraid, afraid that Yan Er will rob him of his position as the eldest son when he goes back!"

"Yes."

After speaking, the emperor closed his eyes and meditated.

After such a thing happened, Yan Er could no longer stay with the prince.In this way, he can only be imprisoned in the mansion.The emperor was not sure before, if he really did this, would Duke Zhao lose his mind if he was dissatisfied?The case of King Duan's rebellion was only dealt with before. The general Yu Chong died not long ago, and he needs time to clean up the mess.It is more beneficial to the situation to relax the relationship with Duke Zhao.

Now after listening to Liao Ying's report, a thought that was directly excluded before floated up in the emperor's mind.

Let Yan Er go back!Duke Zhao's old injury has relapsed, and he will definitely transfer the power in his hands to his son bit by bit. By then, the two sons will fight each other, and the capital will be able to sleep peacefully!

Furthermore, the prince did not hesitate to excuse him, Yan Er must be grateful.The so-called distant fragrance and near stink, leaving now, this gratitude is buried in his heart.

This is really a good idea to kill two birds with one stone.The emperor applauded himself in his heart, stood up and brushed his sleeves vigorously.

"Serving the pen and ink, I will personally draw up the decree!"
