Xiao Jining didn't expect this to be really useful. Seeing the carriage stopped, he immediately ran to the side of the carriage, stretched out his hand to lift Jingyuan's curtain, and asked him, "Brother Jingyuan, why didn't you stop when I asked you just now?"
Jing Yuan was sitting in the carriage, with no expression on his face, but when Xiao Jining lifted the curtain, he glanced sideways at him, and the moment he raised his eyes, they met straight into the clear eyes of the young man staring at him .
Above the main hall, what he saw was this pair of eyes. He had been looking at them for several years, but he still couldn't help admiring them in his heart every time he saw them——Xiao Ji Ning was also so infatuated at that time. Looking at him intently, he saw that the young man's lips trembled, and then they were tightly pursed, with a somewhat dazed and dazed look on his face.
Inexplicably, at that moment, he didn't have time to think, but subconsciously withdrew his strength, and didn't use the sword at his waist to slit the second prince's throat.
But Jingyuan didn't know why he did that.
He has been thinking about this question all the way, and there are countless answers in his mind, for example, he does not want blood stains on those clean eyes; For example, leaving the second prince behind and forcing him to step down from that position is the best torture for him... It's not that he didn't hear Xiao Jining calling him, but Xiao Jining's voice would upset him, He didn't let the carriage stop just because he didn't want Xiao Jining to catch up and distract his thoughts.
However, Jing Yuan is also very clear that these are all excuses.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked the coachman to stop the carriage when Xiao Jining called him "Brother Jingyuan".
Today is a rare sunny day in the cold winter. The world outside the carriage is bright and warm. Xiao Jining stood under that warm light, looking at him who was not in the carriage.
At this moment, Jing Yuan suddenly realized that deep down in his heart, he himself actually knew the answer - he was just afraid, he was afraid that he would kill the second prince in front of Xiao Jining, because it would make Xiao Jining sad and make Xiao Jining feel bad for him , It may even lead their relationship into a dead end that cannot be turned back.
But this answer is too absurd, it is as absurd as he would be upset when he heard Xiao Jining's voice, and he would show mercy to the second prince's subordinates, even protecting Xiao Jining when he was young, no matter what reason he used to justify, Nothing can change the fact that he has been doing ridiculous things for so many years.
"Your Highness." Jing Yuan said, his voice a little hoarse, "What's the matter with calling Weichen?"
When Xiao Jining opened the curtain of the car and saw Jing Yuan, he found no expression on his face, he seemed to be in a bad mood and was a little worried, so he asked cautiously: "Jing... Brother Yuan hasn't eaten yet, I'll treat you to one lunch?"
Jing Yuan heard Xiao Jining call him "Brother Jingyuan" three times in a row. This was Xiao Jining's title when he was young and had to rely on his companion to survive and carefully curry favor with him. When he grew up, Xiao Jining no longer called him that, because This title is a sign of weakness.
But Xiao Jining is too cunning, obviously once he shows weakness, he can't help but soften his heart, but he still wants to call him that.
Jing Yuan closed his eyes, shook his head and sneered, opened his eyes again, raised the curtain door of the carriage, and invited Xiao Jining to get on the carriage: "Where do you want to eat, Your Highness?"
When Xiao Jining saw Jing Yuan shaking his head, he thought he was unwilling, but he didn't expect Jing Yuan to agree in the end.
So Xiao Ji Ning jumped into the carriage, walked into the carriage and sat beside Jing Yuan, and said to him: "That is Yipin Building."
At this moment, the coachman was willing to listen to Xiao Jining's words, and without waiting for Jing Yuan's orders, he drove towards Yipinlou after Xiao Jining's words fell.
When we arrived at Yipin Building, perhaps seeing Jing Yuan smiling, Xiao Jining stopped calling him Big Brother Jing Yuan, but asked him directly: "General Jing, what kind of food do you want to eat?"
There was a slight smile on the corner of Jing Yuan's lips, with a calm expression, as if he had never appeared before indifferently and silently, and said, "Your Highness, just order your favorite dishes."
Xiao Jining is not particularly picky about food, so he ordered a few of Yipinlou's signature dishes upon hearing this.
Both of them are big customers of Yipinlou, and the dishes came out very quickly. Xiao Jining waited for Jing Yuan to eat something, and after seeing that he seemed to be in a good mood, he said: "... General Jing?"
Jing Yuan raised his eyebrows, but without raising his head, he just tapped on the wall of his bowl with his fingers: "This minister has already eaten His Highness's food. If His Highness wants to ask anything, just ask."
Xiao Jining actually wanted to ask Jingyuan why he didn't kill his second brother in the Golden Dragon Palace in the early dynasty, but he just talked out of his mouth. Xiao Jining felt that it was not good to ask such a straightforward question, so he changed the question: "General Jing, Jingzhong It is rumored that you killed Old General Xu at the palace banquet a few days ago, did you really kill Old General Xu?"
This question made Jing Yuan stop his chopsticks, looked up, and asked Xiao Jining instead of answering: "Why did Your Highness ask about this little minister?"
"Because I don't think you will kill Old General Xu." Xiao Jining said truthfully.
He really thought that Jing Yuan would not kill Xu Junhui, because it was completely unnecessary - once the second prince came to the throne, he would be the one who could not tolerate Xu Junhui the most, and sooner or later he would go out and Xu Junhui would.
"I didn't kill him." Jing Yuan also said, "I just knocked out the sword in his hand."
Xiao Jining frowned and asked him: "Then Second Emperor Brother...didn't you let me do it?"
Jing Yuan replied, "Give it up, but I didn't do anything."
Although he was there at the palace banquet that day, he was not the one who killed.
The second prince prepared strong wine for Xu Junhui, and added some "things" in it, so after drinking for three rounds, Xu Junhui became a little drunk.He did pick up the sword, and the tip of the sword was indeed pointed at the second prince, but he just waved it a few times to vent his dissatisfaction, and even said some disrespectful words, absolutely not intending to assassinate the new emperor.
And Jing Yuan, as a general of hussars, had to protect the safety of the emperor. Xu Junhui swung his sword in the palace, and it was his duty to knock down Xu Junhui's sword.But after the sword fell to the ground, the second prince asked the guards to detain him in the name of Xu Junhui's attempt to assassinate the emperor, and killed Xu Junhui himself.
Xu Junhui thought that he had the merits of being a dragon, and his eldest daughter was a queen. Although he had no son, at least he could preserve the prosperity of the Xu family for three generations after recruiting, but he didn't want this prosperity to disappear in an instant.
The second prince's imperial mandate was just as short-lived as Xu Junhui who he personally killed.
"Then why didn't you do it?" Xiao Jining looked at Jing Yuan, and tentatively said, "I see that Brother Er Huang trusts you so much, I thought you, General Jing... would listen to Brother Er Huang very much."
Looking into Xiao Jining's eyes, Jing Yuan suddenly pursed his lips and said with a smile: "I'm not a tyrant, and a prisoner of war doesn't have a sword in his hand, so I won't fight him again."
Xiao Jining was stunned when he heard Jingyuan mention the word "tyrant". This word is very special, because only after becoming an emperor can he be called a "tyrant" if he acts violently, but Jingyuan's current status is just a "minister". , there is no possibility of enthronement, even if he wants to talk about himself, he should call him "treacherous minister" and "sycophant". Jing Yuan compares himself to a tyrant, is he revealing to him that he has evil intentions?
But before Xiao Jining could clear his mind, Jing Yuan's next sentence made him even more stunned and didn't know how to answer——
Jing Yuan asked him: "Besides, don't I listen to your Highness the most?"
Xiao Jining was stunned for a long while before he came back to his senses, and then immediately changed the subject, and asked the question he really wanted to ask when he stopped Jing Yuan today: "Then General Jing, you didn't want to fight the second emperor's brother because you knocked down the sword of the second emperor." ?"
Jing Yuan lowered his eyes and remained silent for a moment, stinging out a word: "No."
Because maybe he himself is a prisoner of war, and how can a prisoner kill someone without a sword in his hand?
But if Jing Yuan didn't say these words, Xiao Jining couldn't figure out his thoughts at all.
Xiao Jining waited for a long time but didn't get any more explanation from Jingyuan. He still wanted to ask again, but Jingyuan stopped his chopsticks, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I'm full, Your Highness hasn't moved chopsticks for a long time, is it okay?" I am full?"
Xiao Jining wasn't very hungry in the first place, he got up late in the first place, and Jing Yuan stuffed him with a lot of lantern cakes, how could he eat too much lunch?
And when Jing Yuan said that, Xiao Ji Ning understood that he could no longer ask anything out of Jing Yuan's mouth, and could only pay for Jing Yuan's carriage to return to Shun Palace.
It's just that Xiao Jining didn't see Jing Yuan, who was still sitting on the carriage and looking at his back after he got off the carriage, with hard-to-find eyes.
The coachman didn't wait for Jing Yuan's order for a long time, so he asked cautiously, "Young general?"
Jing Yuan put down the curtains of the car, and said softly, "Go back to the house."
After Jing Yuan returned to his major general's mansion, he didn't go back to the bedroom immediately, but went to the hall.
After a cup of tea, Jingyue appeared in the hall.
Jing Yuan didn't look at him, and drank tea on his own, and said, "I don't have any extra chairs in my bedroom, and it's not polite to entertain guests like that, so I came to the hall."
Jing Yue ignored Jing Yuan's insinuation, and asked straight to the point: "Why didn't you kill Xiao Jiye?"
Xiao Jiye is the name of the second prince. After he ascended the throne, it is a taboo to call the emperor by his name. This shows how disrespectful Jingyue is to the second prince.
Jing Yuan said, "I'm waiting for you to do it."
Jing Yue smiled instead of anger, and said coldly: "I hope it is so."
After saying this, Jing Yue flung his sleeves and left.
As for Jing Yuan in the room, the indifference on his face was gone, his brows were furrowed, and his fingers holding the tea cup tightened slightly.
In the early morning of the next day, all the officials waiting in the Golden Dragon Palace did not wait for the second prince to appear, but they waited for the news of his death - the second prince died, and was killed by Xu Junhui's prostitute daughter, Empress Xu.
She didn't just kill the second prince alone, she also killed the second prince's only son, the prince born to the daughter of the imperial doctor Jiang, and then drew her sword in the queen's palace and committed suicide, splashing blood on Changle Palace.
The ministers in the Golden Dragon Hall were astonished after hearing the news.
After the morning court yesterday, although all the officials knew that the second prince's abdication and a new emperor would be inevitable, they did not expect this day to come so soon.
But who would have expected such a situation?
The second prince of the new emperor passed away only a few days after ascending the throne. The Zi Palace of the first emperor over there has not yet entered the imperial mausoleum, and the coffin of the new emperor must be placed in the coffin soon. The person who killed the new emperor was still the empress. This history and the situation of the first emperor There are some similarities.
The civil servant Prime Minister Xie thought that nothing could move him after experiencing the pain of losing his daughter, but he still couldn't help it, and said with a complicated expression: "The emperor died, the prince died young, this..."
The next moment, Jing Yue answered, "Since the emperor has no princes to succeed him, the new emperor can only be chosen from a few princes."
The author has something to say: Today I have to catch the high-speed train to go home, don’t be embarrassed if it is a little later, draw 50 red envelopes to compensate everyone =3=
Second Prince: History is always surprisingly similar.
Fourth Prince and Fifth Prince: We will try our best to live longer than you.
