Tang Dynasty good brother

Chapter 447 Drinking
"I was born in Wollongong, and I relied on yin and yang to keep the world in check. The late emperor went to Nanyang to invite the imperial driver three times, and the Han family's career is worth three points~"

Coming out of Fang Xuanling's house, the more Qin Hao thought about it, the more clear and bright he felt in his heart. He couldn't help humming a little song, and couldn't help but start comparing himself to Zhuge Liang.

One word, beautiful.

After returning home, Cen Wenwen was still waiting here, and said with a smile, "Duke Rong is so happy, presumably the Prime Minister agreed?"

"Promise? No, he is angry with the saint. If the saint doesn't give him the steps, don't even think about inviting him back."

"Then you are..."

"Isn't it just a protector of the Xiting Dadu? I came to draft an edict. The emperor's grandson is still young, so I will be the sixth prince. As for the two places of Anxi and Andong, in fact, the world is peaceful now and there is no war. The west is for Baoguo. Duke Duan Zhixuan, the east is for Kui Kingdom Duke Liu Hongji, whoever refuses to give in can just let them come to me, that's it, and I'll deal with this matter when I receive the seal tomorrow."

Cen Wenwen was completely dumbfounded, he was playing a rascal in the morning, why did he become like this after meeting Fang?
But no matter what, the matter was settled after all. Anyway, as long as he didn't take the blame, it doesn't matter whoever ordered him.

So, Cen Wenwen left happily, and Qin Hao himself was very happy at home, until he was almost happy, then he remembered to bring a gift to meet the unhappy person.

He went straight to the East Palace and asked to see Li Chengqian. The little eunuch arranged for him to wait in the living room. The wait lasted for nearly half an hour. This was something he had never experienced before in his relationship with Li Chengqian. Tea, anyway, Li Chengqian came out before he drank his stomach full of tea.

"I'm sorry, I was negligent. I happened to have something to deal with. Zhenheng, you haven't taken the initiative to find Gu for many years, right?"

"It's okay, it's not a serious matter to find you this time, you and I haven't called myself me for many years."

Li Chengqian's expression froze, and he shook his head slowly with a little embarrassment.

As he said that, Qin Hao took out his gift and said, "This is my first group of thousands of soldiers drunk. Now this is the only altar in the world, why don't you drink with me?"

"Ha, I know you still have stock, this wine is almost ten years old."

"Yeah, it's been almost ten years. Old wine, of course, should be drunk with old friends. Your Highness won't let the imperial chef cook two good dishes?"

"Hahaha, well, it's too late to stew the bear's paws. It just so happens that the imperial dining room has recently brought in a little bit of scorpion, and it's only one meal for me. I'm not willing to eat it. It's just cheap for the glutton in your stomach. .”

"Okay, then I would like to thank Your Highness."

After a while, a court lady helped them set the table, and besides the scarlet lips, they served some other delicate side dishes. Li Chengqian said: "Is Zhenheng here this time to catch up with me?"

"Yes and no."

"Before talking about the old days, there is something I want to tell you."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"Tomorrow, I'm going to be the servant of Zhongshu, do you know about this?"

"I heard some rumors, but I wasn't sure before, so I didn't tell you that there is a definite purpose?"

"Yes."

"Then I should congratulate you."

"Fang Xiang is at home now, and Cen Wenwen and I will take care of the affairs of Zhongshu Sheng. He came to me today and discussed with me about the matter of the Chief Protector of Xiting."

"Oh? I don't know who is the draft edict in the Chinese script?"

"Sixth Prince Li Ge, I've made a foolish edict, so before drinking, I'll accompany you first."

With a bang, Li Chengqian patted the table lightly.

After taking a deep breath, Li Chengqian said: "Gu has always thought that although we have had a lot of differences over the years, at least you are definitely on Gu's side in major matters."

"Stand on the side? There used to be Li Tai, but now, His Highness's own position is already as stable as Mount Tai. I really can't figure out who His Highness is fighting with. Does Your Highness know? You say I'm not on your side, So tell me, whose side am I on?"

Li Chengqian got angry, slapped the table and said, "Stable as Mount Tai? Huh! Gu Ruo is as stable as Mount Tai, why don't you even give the orphaned child a guardianship?"

Qin Hao was also angry, and he patted the table and said, "Because you are not the master of the world! When will you understand such a simple question!"

There were too many words without speculation, and the wine hadn't been drunk yet, and the two of them could hardly continue talking.

After a long time, it was Qin Hao who breathed a sigh of relief first, poured wine for Li Chengqian, poured another glass for himself, held it up and said, "When I knew Your Highness, I just came out of the prison in Dali Temple, and I was still a noble With a jobless body, His Highness at that time was only 11 years old."

Li Chengqian sighed, and said: "Yes, at that time, you were my only friend. Over the years, there have been fewer and fewer people around me who can speak their minds. Now, even you have to abandon me. .”

The two drank it all together, and Qin Hao said: "In 13 years, I have changed from a white man to the current Duke, Deputy Prime Minister, and His Highness. There are already more speculators around me, and I am no longer missing a friend like me." Now, you listened to most of what I said back then, and now, my words are useless, but there are some things I still want to tell you."

"You speak."

"Your Highness, do you still remember that the happiest period of time when you and I were friends was when the dispute between the country and the country had not yet appeared. Later, as the king of Yue grew older, people praised his cleverness, and the saint seemed to be very fond of him. Pet, at that time, His Highness will not be very happy."

"Speaking of which, I still have to thank you for this matter."

"But Your Highness, since the King of Yue has already gone to the Tang Federal Reserve, he naturally has no threat to you. Who do you take as your opponent now? Are your brothers or a saint? The sixth prince is not a direct descendant, and the ninth prince is of a different age." Too young, in fact, in your current situation, it is in your best interest to do nothing. To say something that should not be said, when you become the emperor, you can be whatever you want your son to be Now, why the rush."

Li Chengqian sighed and said: "I always feel that my father doesn't like me now, and he treats Xiaojiu better than me. A few days ago, he also said that the sixth brother is 'heroic and martial like me'. Zhenheng, you are familiar with history books. You said that this prince If it is abolished, will there be a good end? The other brothers can leave at any time if they can't compete. They can go to be the prince of Xiaoyao, or go to the Tang Fed Reserve to spend the rest of their lives, but what about me? I can only advance, not retreat .”

Qin Hao said: "So? Are you flustered now? As a son, you want to be loved by your father, or as a prince, you are afraid that your position will be unstable? If you say you are afraid that the position of the prince will not be stable, in my opinion, there is no need, saint It doesn't really matter if you like you or not. There are still lengths in one hand and five fingers. The father of ordinary people will love the younger son more, but you are not only the eldest son, but you have also been the crown prince for 15 years. During this period, you have supervised the country three times , have been praised by the ruling and opposition parties. If he wants to shake the foundation of the country, unless he changes all these people in the court, I think, at least before the death of these founding heroes, he will not do so. If it is a son who wants to My father's favorite, then at least, don't do these things he doesn't like, why are you jumping up in such a hurry? Prove to him that you have grown up, or is he old?"
