Chapter 127 Chapter 127 The Long-planned Assassination
It is rare for mother and son to get together happily, but the Empress Dowager changed her face when she saw the dishes being delivered, "Who will make today's meal under the supervision of the person in charge of the imperial dining room."

The head of the imperial dining room, who was in trouble from the sky, was terrified, "The slaves are made according to the meal regulations delivered, and there is nothing wrong with it."

After all, she presented the meal booklet, but just looking at the meal booklet on the ground, the queen mother became more and more angry, "This is not the one drawn up by the Ai family at all!"

"You dog slaves are really daring, you dare to deceive the Ai family."

Everyone hurriedly knelt down and said they didn't dare, but Prince Xiaozhong beside him was kind, "Now my son is not a prince, so naturally he has to make meals according to the rules of ordinary people."

He looked down at the sixth prince with a smile on his face, "I am the emperor's uncle, but I've got Xiao Liu's favor."

"The emperor was joking."

The sixth prince showed a row of small white teeth heartily, "When I came back to the palace, I didn't know there were such rules in the meal. If I had known it earlier, I would have ordered people to follow the rules that the emperor likes."

The sixth prince added a glass of wine, and respectfully held up a glass of wine to apologize to Prince Xiaozhong, "I have long heard that the mother and concubine said that the jade liquid of the Great Wei Dynasty is the best in the world, but now it is only through the grace of the emperor that I can taste it." .”

The sixth prince approached and took a sip, but he was too hot. Mrs. Ru laughed when she saw this, and taught him how to drink alcohol correctly. The smile was charming, but it looked warm from a distance.

Prince Xiaozhong watched from a distance, with an indescribable meaning on the corner of his mouth, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp. Although the wine in the palace was too soft for a short time, it had indeed begun to show its brilliance.

"Uncle Royal."

"I've seen your uncle."

The eldest prince and the three princes came forward to toast together. The two of them, one civil and one martial, one strong and the other gentle, really stood in front of others, but they really had a sense of oppression that could compete with the sun and the moon.

His nephews have grown up.

"I have been away from Beijing for a long time, but I often hear that Bo Qian is quite wise in the court, and the civil servants are quite supportive. Huaishan has created a lot of industry in the army. I think the future crown prince should be from Choose between the two of you."

Hearing the words, the third prince raised his eyes, and squinted at the eldest prince next to him. Although the two discussed an alliance in private, they knew how fragile this alliance was.

It's not that the third prince can't hear the ins and outs of Prince Xiaozhong's insincere provocations, but the surviving prince who finally survived from a group of princes is not as simple as they imagined.

"Great Wei governs the country with literature and secures the country with martial arts. It seems that I, Great Wei, will be a leader in the limelight in the future."

Among the two, only the third prince practiced martial arts and joined the army. In this way, it was implying that the third prince was not destined for the throne.

However, the eldest prince didn't seem to hear the provocation in these words, nor did he see the secret hostility cast by the third prince.

He stood in front of the steps, without the support of his mother clan, he was like a crumbling dead leaf on a tree, completely helpless.

"Third brother Wentao Wulue, I don't know how much better than me. Although my father gave me the gift of studying and researching with the ministers in the court, he has always trained me as an assistant minister.

Thinking about it, in the heart of the father, the more important prince should be entrusted with the heavy responsibility of the Great Wei. Now, at this moment, the father has already written an edict ordering the sixth younger brother to return to Beijing, maybe the father also has a plan in his heart. "

The eldest prince played Tai Chi very well, and pushed the sixth prince forward in a few words.

These words not only set up a new target for Prince Xiaozhong, but also secretly reminded the third prince, don't let people forget the purpose of the two of them here in a few words.

Sure enough, the first prince's reminder worked, and the third prince looked at him with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a few years, and the sixth brother has grown up."

He continued, "Especially the sixth younger brother is studying in the Zhao Kingdom, and the people he has come into contact with are also the powerful ministers of the Zhao Kingdom. If you think about it, the culture and martial arts are naturally not inferior to us."

The more the third prince talked, the more wrong his expression became, because he found out that because Liu Huangzi stayed away from Wei since childhood, he didn't know anything about the past of this sixth brother.

Not to mention where he studied, even who he studied under and what status he had in Zhao State, they didn't know at all.

So far, the third prince has put the half-grown boy in front of him in his heart, "Now that the sixth younger brother has returned, he has gathered Zhao Guo, the leaders of the great Wei family, and I think he can make a career in the future."

Prince Xiaozhong didn't know what he had thought of, and nodded appreciatively, "Master Liu is not far away, and he can go to Zhaoguo to teach the scriptures for thousands of miles. It can be seen that the emperor brother has arranged it long ago. In this way, the future crown prince is Our little six is ​​now."

The sixth prince stood there, listening with a smile on his face, and it took him a while to seem to understand the conversation between several people, "Me?"

He pointed at himself and laughed, "I haven't even seen my father's face, how could I be chosen by my father to become the crown prince?"

He smiled and waved his hands, "Uncle, you two brothers, don't tease me. I finally came back to Dawei. I just want to eat something good and sleep comfortably. I’m afraid I’ve never thought about it.”

"As for the crown prince you mentioned, father is in his prime, and maybe he will add a few more siblings to us someday. What do you want to do so early?"

After these words, how many people fell silent?
That's right.

But that one is about to die now.

"Stop talking, stop talking, let's drink and eat."

The few people seemed to have returned to the way they were chatting and laughing just now, talking about the customs of Zhao Kingdom, and the livelihood of the common people in the Great Wei Dynasty.

There was that long and beautiful dancer who came up to perform dances, and the scene in the silk and bamboo orchestra was full of joy.

If not, those Le Ji who were dancing with white feathers suddenly looked at each other, and the corners of their back skirts twirled like flower petals.

Immediately afterwards, a dagger gleaming with cold light was drawn straight out from under the skirt hanging from the waist, turning into a stream of light and spreading out in different directions.

The assassins were extremely targeted, and their targets were the famous people at today's banquet.

"Empress be careful!"

The third prince has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and when he encountered this situation, it almost became a conditioned reflex to take action.

But the dancer who attacked him was very skilled, he not only needed to separate this person, but also needed to take care of the eldest prince.

After all, the first prince's martial arts can only be regarded as mediocre.

A lot of time wasted in rescuing the queen mother after coming and going.

"Uncle! Hurry up and protect the queen mother!"

In a hurry, the third prince only had time to shout this sentence.

But if possible, how could Prince Xiaozhong let his own mother have an accident.

Almost at the moment when these dancers showed their daggers, Prince Xiaozhong had already reacted.

But the assassin obviously knew that he was good at martial arts, and most of the five assassins ran after him.

No matter how brave the wolf was, it was afraid of the hyenas that were encircling and suppressing. For a moment, Prince Xiaozhong was clumsy, and the plain clothes were stained with blood at some point.

He watched helplessly as the assassin strangled towards the Queen Mother...

　Today is my birthday, I am the person who gave me a ticket from the motherland (*︶*), a good person will have a safe life (*︶*)
