After rebirth and marriage, the sick prince is fine again

Chapter 104 The Princes' Appearance

Minister Lin's steps became increasingly steady and powerful, his official uniform was neat and dignified, and the gold-embroidered cloud patterns sparkled in the morning sun.

It was just a pair of eyes looking around vaguely.

"Minister Lin, my friend and I are attending court for the first time today, so we are inevitably a little nervous. Please forgive us if we do anything inappropriate," said Gu Yan'an.

"How can I laugh at you? Just be calm and quiet when you go in. If it is not necessary to ask for permission, you must think twice before speaking."

After saying this, Minister Lin touched the jade belt around his waist, which swayed slightly with his steps, making a clear and pleasant sound.

Gu Yan'an lowered his eyes and showed humility.

"Yes."

"Gu Shizi, I also watched you grow up, so I'll just call you Shizi in private."

Gu Yan'an nodded, and when the officials in the court saw Minister Lin coming, they all took the initiative to make way.

There was a hint of respect in every pair of eyes, and some people even bowed and saluted.

Minister Lin responded one by one, nodded with a smile and sighed: "Sir, most of the people in the court now are the followers of the Second Prince, the Third Prince and the Crown Prince.

Crown Prince Zhao Jinyu is a suspicious person and is now the heir to the throne.

The current emperor has six princes, and the others knew they had no chance, so they all left.

The ones who fought the most fiercely were the second prince and the third prince, who followed closely behind the crown prince.

As long as the prince doesn't sit on that position, they still have a chance.

The second prince Zhao Wenmo and the third prince Zhao Moxuan have been fighting openly and secretly in their respective territories for many years and neither of them would give in.

Not only did he compete among the literati and court officials, he also tried to intervene in the field of military generals in an attempt to get a share of the distribution of military power.

The prince was not a blind bystander. He was naturally well aware of the fight between the two brothers, but he chose to wait and see, allowing this power game to continue under his nose.

The three factions were fighting fiercely behind the scenes.

The princes had to pretend to be friendly and respectful brothers on the surface.

His Majesty would be happy to see this. Under his nose, they would naturally pretend to be filial and harmonious, and would even be able to eat shit with a smile on their faces.

These things are all out in the open and clear.

"I heard that the Third Prince Zhao Moxuan is recruiting students and planning things recently. I'm afraid there will be trouble."

Minister Lin whispered that Minister Lin had never paid much attention to the various factions and belonged to the neutral faction.

However, being in the court, one naturally has to keep an eye on all directions and listen to all directions, and pay attention to any news and any disturbance.

After hearing this, Gu Yanan smiled slightly and said nothing.

“This year’s candidates are extremely talented, so naturally they attracted a lot of recruitment.”

"Yes, the various factions in the court are secretly vying for the dozen or so people on the list."

"Although the Third Prince is recruiting many students and advisers, many people will come here to admire his reputation, but whether they can get in is another matter."

"If you really have many wise men under your wing, you must be careful when speaking to the Third Prince. You must not just speak your mind for the moment."

Gu Yan'an nodded. It seemed that the current situation was really complicated. He turned his head slightly and glanced at Liu Dashan.

Liu Dashan responded with his eyes, indicating that he knew the limits.

They walked and talked along the way, and from time to time someone would strike up a conversation, and from time to time someone's eyes would fall on Gu Yanan.

Gu Yan'an took it calmly, and if someone greeted him, he would just nod in response.

Entering the main hall, Minister Lin walked to his seat and stood still. He looked around, his eyes habitually sweeping across the faces of every official.

The court was in complete silence at this time.

There were still a few empty seats in the main hall. Within half a cup of tea, several princes arrived one after another.

Crown Prince Zhao Jinyu walked in, and his every move revealed the dignity and honor of a royal child.

He was dressed in a bright red civil servant uniform, which made him look handsome. His face was like jade, with sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, and clear lip lines, just like a finely carved jade article.

Her black hair was tied up high in a bun, fixed with a gold crown inlaid with gemstones, which added a bit of nobility. Her brows were tightly knitted, and her face was full of coldness and murderousness.

He walked into the main hall with his hands behind his back. Everyone turned around, bowed, and greeted the prince in unison.

"No need to be so polite, everyone. Stand up quickly."

As soon as the prince opened his mouth, his tone was somewhat friendly, instantly diluting the solemn and murderous feeling.

"Brother, you're here really early."

Another voice came from behind, and the Third Prince Zhao Moxuan came over with his arms folded. Despite such an elegant name, he had a very gloomy face.

His eyes were long and narrow, as if they could see into people's hearts. Whenever he looked at people, one would feel as if being stared at by a poisonous snake, which was chilling.

Gu Yan'an had little contact with the princes. Even though he had met them when he was a child, it was only a few times and the impact on them was very slight.

But with just one glance today, he remembered the Third Prince deeply in his mind.

I secretly thought that it would be better to avoid this person in the future. Just the feeling makes me uncomfortable.

"Third brother, you are a little late today."

"I'm really sorry. I was a little late reviewing last night. I hope you won't blame me, big brother."

"My second brother has always liked reading poetry and books, so it's not surprising that he reads late, but he still needs to take care of his health."

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked up and saw a tall and imposing man walking in.

He was wearing a military officer's uniform embroidered with delicate cloud patterns, and a golden belt around his waist, highlighting his extraordinary status.

That person was the second prince Zhao Wenxuan.

He has distinct facial features, sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, and tightly-closed lips, exuding a heroic aura.

His hair was neatly tied up and fixed with a jade hairpin, which made him look more handsome.

When Gu Yanan saw Zhao Wenxuan coming, a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes.

Compared to the Crown Prince's inadvertently easy-going attitude, the Third Prince exudes gloominess from time to time.

Zhao Wenxuan seemed to be full of righteousness, but what surprised Gu Yan'an was that the second prince was actually a military general.

This is interesting. It seems that the second prince is clearly better in the fight for military power.

The three princes can act out a drama together, but it is a drama of brotherly love and respect, so they will not reveal their true colors in front of everyone.

The three of them exchanged greetings for a while, and their eyes naturally fell on Gu Yanan sitting on the wooden wheel.

The three of them walked towards him together, although there was no clue in their expressions.

But the probing and scrutinizing gaze could still be detected.

"The young general is famous in the capital. After meeting him today, I can see that he is indeed extraordinary." The prince said first.

"Your Highness, you are too kind. This is just an unintentional fame. If it were someone else, he would still be famous in the capital." Gu Yan'an bowed.

"Don't be so modest. You secretly joined the army and yet you still received such an honor. It shows that you are not an ordinary person." The third prince said, but there was a hint of sarcasm in his words.
