Cannon fodder's self-cultivation

In Qionghua Palace and Bihua Palace lived the two most favored concubines of Dongli Harem respectively, the dignified and elegant Concubine Yi and the alluring Concubine Xian.Concubine Yigui and Concubine Xian shared the love of Yulu and sisters, and it was a good story in the Dongli Harem.

In the 14th year of Zhenghe, Concubine Yigui became pregnant and gave birth to the eldest son of the emperor in March of the following year. Emperor Wuren was overjoyed and named him Jing, meaning to calm down the world and stop the war.

Four years later, Concubine Xian became pregnant. It coincided with the turmoil of the Huns in the north. The queen mother listened to politics behind the curtain.

During the national mourning period, Concubine Xian had a difficult childbirth and died after giving birth to the prince. The prince was sent to Qionghua Palace. Let’s stay by Ai’s side. Concubine Xian spread branches and leaves for the late emperor, Ai’s family thanked him for his contribution, and allowed the little prince to follow his mother’s surname. Now it’s late autumn, with maple leaves and flowers, and the autumn wind is rustling, let’s give him the name Di.”

All the people in the palace shouted that the queen mother is a thousand years old, and no one dared to question her.

The second son of the first emperor was deprived of his imperial surname and named after a humble grass. The meaning of the empress dowager has been clearly revealed.

Unlike Emperor Wu Ren who used martial arts to conquer the world, the eldest son of the emperor, Qi Jing, was born weak. He was five years older than Xiao Di, and he liked this innocent and beautiful little emperor very much. His "brother emperor" would always sit quietly at the gate of the Taiyuan Academy and wait for him when he went to class at the Taiyuan Academy, and then quickly get up and run towards him the first time he finished class.

Until many years later, Qi Jing can still clearly remember how many times he walked out of the Taiyuan Academy and saw a little boy sitting on the steps of the Taiyuan Academy with his chin resting on his back. As soon as he came out, he smiled happily and quickly looked at him. Come and call him Brother Huang.

That may be the best memory of his life.

When Xiao Di was six years old, Qi Jing begged Empress Dowager Yi to let Xiao Di go to the Imperial Academy with him to attend classes. Empress Dowager Yi agreed to Qi Jing's plea after careful consideration.Qi Jing still remembers the excitement of the little emperor when he heard the news. Every time he told Xiao Di about his experience in Taiyuan Academy, his little emperor always looked envious. This time he finally didn't have to wait at the door. He can finally sit in the Tai Academy.

It was also at that time that they met Ruan Jingjun, the son of a great general. The three of them were young men with silver saddles and white horses, and they hit it off and became friends almost immediately.Xiao Di is the youngest of the three, but he is also the smartest among the three. Although he entered the school late, he is good at calculating power, governing the country, and being an emperor. .Although Qi Jing is slightly inferior to his younger brother, he is also the best among the princes and grandchildren, showing the air of an emperor at a young age.

As the son of a military general, Ruan Jingjun naturally focused his studies on martial arts. Because Qi Jing was weak since childhood, he never participated in the school martial arts performances, and only watched from the audience.

Ruan Jingjun's riding and archery is the best, and Xiao Di, who is still young, is a little weak on the school field, frequently misses the bow and arrow in his hand, and many of them land on the ground before reaching the target, seeing him stop as discouraged, Qi Jing encouraged him off the court, "Go on, Ah Di."

The young man on the field pouted, "Brother Huang will make fun of me, you will know how heavy this bow and crossbow is when you come up and try it, it is as difficult as going to the sky if you want to hit the target!"

Ruan Jingjun on the side listened to this and said with a smile, "Ah Di has lost his temper again. If it is really difficult, then I will make one for Adi to see." With a sharp sound, it plunged into the distant archery target for more than an inch, and the feathers at the end of the arrow were still shaking violently.

Xiao Di stared at the arrow feather in the middle of the red heart with wide-eyed surprise, "Brother Ruan! How did you do it! It's amazing!"

Qi Jing below clapped his hands, "Adi, why don't you let brother Ruan teach you, and see what the trick is to hit the red heart."

"Brother Ruan, can you teach me..." Xiao Di looked at Ruan Jingjun holding a bow with expectant eyes.

Ruan Jingjun walked over with a smile and rubbed Xiao Di's head, "Master has already taught you the tricks in class, but you are still young and your arms are not strong enough, and it takes [-]% of your strength just to draw the bowstring, let alone aiming. After that, she stood behind Xiao Di and took his hand to draw the bow and arrow, Wei Wei took his body to aim, "Bang!" The bow and arrow left the string and hit the red heart.

Xiao Di was stunned, as if he couldn't believe that the arrow was shot out of his hand, he pulled Ruan Jingjun's hand, jumped up and down, and kept shouting, "I succeeded! I succeeded! Brother Huang, you See! I shot that arrow! I hit the bull's eye!  …”

Both on and off the stage seemed to be infected by the young man, showing happy smiles.

On Chunri Hunting, the three rode their horses galloping, Xiao Di waved the whip, leaving the two of them far behind, and shouted while riding, "Let's compete and see who can shoot the most prey!"

Qi Jing drove the horse and followed behind the two, "You are smart, I am sure to lose in such a match!"

Xiao Di laughed loudly from the front, "So what! Even if it's not as good as riding and shooting, Brother Huang still lost to me at the lantern riddle meeting in the Lantern Festival! Hahaha..."

While protecting Qi Jing, Ruan Jingjun chased Xiao Di, "Adi, slow down! The prey is scaring you away!"

Qi Jing looked at the youthful figure on the horse. His imperial brother was better than him since he was a child. This is something he has always known, but he doesn't know where the faint unhappiness in his heart comes from.

The boy in front had already seen his prey, "White fox! Watch me catch it to make a scarf for the emperor and the queen!"

Qi Jing was stunned for a moment, what was he thinking, that was his imperial brother!

Teenagers don't know how to feel sad, and the days are like running water, flowing happily through the fingertips. Unknowingly, the three of them are growing up slowly.

In the 31st year of Zhenghe, Qi Jing was 17 years old, Xiao Di was 12 years old, and Ruan Jingjun was.At that time, Empress Dowager Yi had been listening to the government behind the curtain for more than 12 years, and her health was deteriorating, like a candle in the wind, in danger.In August, the Empress Dowager announced her withdrawal from the imperial court and returned to her Majesty, and the enthronement ceremony was officially held on August [-]th.

In Qionghua Palace, Xiao Di stood by Empress Dowager Yi's bed to wait on her illness. After feeding the decoction, Empress Dowager Yi retreated from the crowd and held Xiao Di's hand with one hand, "Di'er."

"Mother's queen." Xiao Di called out obediently.

"Your mother and Aijia are sisters, and you and Jing'er are brothers. Now that Aijia is about to die, you tell Aijia, have you ever thought about becoming an emperor?"

The boy shook his head seriously, "I don't want to be the emperor."

"You are still young and don't understand anything. Jing'er is weak, and you are so good... Di'er, I'm sorry, I have to do this for Jing'er, I hope you don't hate me..." Queen Mother Yi looked at it apologetically Teenager before implantation.

"Mother?" The young man wondered.

The woman on the bed closed her eyes and refused to look at him.

Suddenly, a figure appeared behind the young man, stabbed the young man in front of the bed unconscious with a knife in his hand, and picked up the unconscious young man, "Queen Mother, everything is ready."

Empress Dowager Yi waved her hand wearily.

From that day on, the innocent young man in fresh clothes and angry horse disappeared.

A few days after the young emperor got the news, the emperor, who was preparing for the enthronement ceremony, rushed to the boy's dormitory, "Adi! How are you? I'm sorry, I didn't know that the empress would do this to you..."

What's the use of saying sorry now.

Everything is too late.

There was no lamp in the boy's bedroom, he curled up under the thick quilt, and a hoarse voice came from under the quilt, "I'm fine, thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern."

Qi Jing didn't know what kind of despair the young man had experienced, how he had roared to make his clear voice so hoarse.

He stretched out his hand to touch the boy, but as soon as his hand touched the quilt, he felt a tremor under the quilt, and he sighed muffledly, "I'm sorry, Adi."

The boy didn't give him any response.

He thought he was such a despicable brother. When he learned that his dearest brother had been castrated, his first reaction was to breathe a sigh of relief.

On the day of his official ascension to the throne, as if to compensate his younger brother, he decreed that the little prince should be crowned as a lord, bestowed the title of Gongxian, and he is the youngest lord in Dongli.

The pale young man knelt on the cold ground of Qionghua Palace, took the imperial decree from the eunuch, lowered his head and smiled self-deprecatingly, "Gongxian?"

The young prince moved out of the palace soon, and the new palace was built in the southern part of the capital farthest to the east from the Forbidden City. He was no longer the kid who followed him and called him emperor brother in a soft voice, and neither did he. Then there is the emperor brother who only wants to protect him wholeheartedly.

Youji young man was dressed in white clothes, with a silver saddle on his crotch and a white horse riding all over Nandu Luohua, with a long sword in his hand pointing straight at Dongli River and Mountain like a rainbow. He turned his head and looked at him with a bright and dazzling smile. He said to him, Brother Huang, in the future you To be the emperor, I will be the prince. I will be the first god of war prince in Dongli. I will take down all the countries in Xiliang, Nanyue and give them to the emperor. I will let the emperor be the only emperor in the world!

However, as time went by, that proud young man in fresh clothes and furious horse who saw all the beauty of Nandu's spring had been completely killed by him, by his mother, and by this ruthless imperial power.

He and him will never go back.
