My life is like walking on thin ice

Chapter 6 Trapped Beast
No one knows what the emperor's eldest son Liu Rong talked with Princess Guantao at the Tangyi Hou Mansion on this day.

However, when many people saw Liu Rong walking out of the Hou Mansion, his face was so gloomy that water could drip from his eyes, they made a rough judgment: the emperor's eldest son came to apologize, and the result might not be optimistic.

No one knew that the reason why the eldest son of the emperor, who was usually very expressive of joy and anger, walked out of the Tangyi Hou Mansion with a gloomy face was because of Liu Prostitute's 'unintentional words'.

——Liu prostitute, intending to marry his precious daughter to his biological brother: the crown prince of Liang Wang Liu Wu...

"Hey, second brother;"

"Brother, what's going on?"

Half a month later, outside the east gate of Chang'an City.

Riding on horseback with his second brother Liu De, he headed towards the twenty-mile pavilion outside the city. Looking ahead, the eldest brother Liu Rong's back always exuded a cold look. The third prince Liu Yu struggled for a long time and finally asked the doubts in his heart.

"Ever since that day when I came to apologize to Aunt Guantao, my eldest brother seems to have stopped talking?"

"Could it be that day..."

Accompanying his eldest brother out of the city to welcome King Liang who returned to Beijing for funeral, Liu De was actually thinking about this issue along the way.

——Liu De knew very well: If he just came to apologize, but did not get the forgiveness of his aunt Liu, his eldest brother would never react like this.

He went up to the sky and said with a sneer, "The gift is not valuable enough for my aunt to despise it." Then he ran to continue looking for rare things and went to please Liu whoring again.

Such a reaction now can only prove that something big happened in Tangyi Hou Mansion that day.

As for what exactly happened...

"If you want to know, wouldn't it be better to just ask my eldest brother?"

"Brothers and sisters from the same mother are not taboos, so the eldest brother should not keep silent about it..."

Liu De said this with an indifferent expression, but his eyes quietly looked at the figure holding a triple knotted yak not far in front of him.

As Liu De expected, when he heard his suggestion, his third brother Liu Yi quickly shook his head like a rattle: "If I dared, wouldn't I have gone earlier?"

"You asked my second brother what he was doing..."

"——Eh, that's not right;"

"Second brother, why don't you ask yourself?"

"You really think I'm stupid..."

Faintly hearing the conversation between his two younger brothers, Liu Rong took the lead and left his two younger brothers about ten paces behind him. He just pulled the reins without leaving a trace;

After the two younger brothers caught up with him and each came to a position diagonally behind him, he said without squinting, "I told you earlier: Uncle Liang Wang is not a good person in Chang'an this time."

"It's just that at that time, I couldn't see clearly, and I was only vaguely wary."

"Until that day at Tangyi Hou Mansion, Guantao's aunt accidentally mentioned something;"

"——My aunt intends to marry Gillian to Prince Liang."

"It was also that day that I finally understood why Uncle Liang's visit to the court for funerals made me feel uneasy..."

Successfully achieving the goal, the second child Liu De immediately had a faint smile on his face;

But after hearing his elder brother's worried words, the smile froze on his face along with the pride between Liu De's brows.

After thinking for a moment and figuring out the pros and cons, Liu De's face no longer showed any color;
Some are just faces as pale as a death, and eyes full of helplessness.

After all, the third child was younger and had not yet understood the key. He only frowned in confusion: "Isn't this a good thing?"

"My mother rejected Aunt Guantao's marriage proposal, and my aunt is very angry because of this matter;"

"I have found a new husband for Gillian, and my eldest brother is here to help me. Even if I have resentment in my heart, my aunt should calm down, right?"

As he spoke, Liu Yu's clear and stupid eyes looked at his eldest brother Liu Rong and his second brother Liu De successively;

Seeing that one of the two frowned and the other turned pale, he became even more puzzled.

"Third brother, did you just meet Aunt Guantao?"

The second brother, Liu De, murmured like a dream, and Liu Yi vaguely felt a layer of gauze, but he couldn't pierce it;

It was Liu Rong's deep words that made Liu Yi feel as if he was struck by lightning. The reins fell off his hands, and he stood on the horse in shock.

"Aunt Guantao will only let me, the crown prince of the Han family, be the son-in-law of her Tang Yihou Mansion."

"The son-in-law chosen by Aunt Guantao is not the prince, which can only mean one thing." "——This person will be the prince sooner or later."

"At least in the future, Aunt Guantao will spare no effort to make this man the crown prince."

After saying this, Liu Rong rarely turned his head and looked at his third brother Liu Yu with a solemn face.

"Now, do you understand?"

···
Being stared at so directly by his elder brother, Liu Yu could only instinctively feel: It's over, something big is going to happen!

After carefully recalling Liu Rong's words just now, his already wide eyes opened even more like bells...

"Uncle Liang Wang!"

A subconscious shout caused a commotion in the team behind the three brothers, and they all looked up into the distance.

Finding that Prince Liang and his entourage were not seen in the distance, they all cast doubtful glances on the third son of the emperor, Liu Yi, whose face was full of shock.

Then Liu Rong glanced at this silly brother with a pity, then looked forward again, clamped his legs between the horse's belly, and increased his speed again;

Behind Liu Rong, Liu Yu, the third child, struggled to control the good horse, while trying to lower his voice, he couldn't hide his shock and said: "Uncle Liang Wang, want to be the emperor?!"

Seeing that his third brother finally got the idea, Liu De only trembled his lips, nodded slowly, and shook his head slightly.

"yes;"

"Not at all."

·
"At least in Aunt Guantao's view, it is possible and something that can be fought for for Uncle Liang to become the crown prince and inherit the throne a hundred years after his father."

"Only in this way can we explain why my aunt thought of letting Gillian marry Uncle Liang's crown prince."

"——If Prince Liang is really allowed to be the crown prince of his father, then Prince Liang today will be the crown prince tomorrow..."

At this moment, Liu Yi finally understood everything, but he couldn't suppress the shock on his face;
Even speaking, he stumbled a little for no reason.

"But, but!"

"How could my father be so, so stupid?!"

"Even if Aunt Guantao has her heart, Grandma Huang will never do it!!!"

Halfway through his words, Liu Yi suddenly stopped talking, a rare moment of enlightenment.

"Yes……"

"As Uncle Wang becomes the crown prince, he no longer has to live outside the customs for a long time. Instead, he can stay in Chang'an and accompany the imperial grandmother day and night..."

"In this case..."

In an instant, Liu Yu's originally clear eyes dimmed instantly, and his face turned pale as paper.

When the King of Liang became the crown prince, he had to seize the direct lineage from a side branch, and the old Liu family changed to the direct lineage;
And after changing from the direct lineage to the concubine lineage, there is a truth that none of today's Ziqi's descendants will survive...

"Father, it shouldn't be possible..."

"But the Royal Grandmother..."

"us……"

For a moment, Liu Yi was as confused as if he were mourning his heir.

At the front of the team, Liu Rong looked into the distance with a hint of determination amid worry.

——There is no way out.

As early as the day he was born, Liu Rong came to this world as the 'eldest grandson of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty', and he already had no way out.

Or, succeed to the throne in ninety-five years and rule the world;

Or, fall into the abyss and be shattered into pieces.

The trapped beasts still fight, but the poor bandits do not pursue them.

Liu Rong, the eldest son of the emperor, is the trapped beast who was born surrounded by wolves and found in a desperate situation...
