The Prince and the Demon Monk [Rebirth]

Because the sixth prince enlisted the support of the fourth prince, the story of Liang Ji and the eighth prince snatching crickets quickly spread in the harem, and immediately there were complaints about the ninth prince's unfriendliness and bad temper.

As soon as Liang Ji returned to Fenghe Palace that day, he was called to him by Empress Li. Empress Li didn't mention his behavior of bullying his brother, but said that he acted recklessly and was caught.

"The queen mother asks you, if you do it all over again, what should you do?"

Liang Cheng knelt in front of Empress Li, his palms had just been touched by the ruler, and he felt a burst of pain. He covered his hands in the wide sleeves, his back was straight, his eyes were slightly drooping, his voice was soft and waxy like a child's, but his tone was very calm. : "After returning to my mother, if I do it all over again, Huang'er will ask Brother Bahuang to lend me a game for two days. If Brother Bahuang refuses, Huanger will personally give Brother Bahuang a better worm jar when he turns around."

Li Hou then praised lightly: "That's right, since he is so rare about a bug, let's let people know that the eighth prince is not only playful, but also doesn't know his brothers, while the ninth prince respects and loves his elder brother at a young age, and has a broad mind. Don’t take what’s good for you.”

Although Liang Ji's answer satisfied Empress Li, Empress Li punished him to copy the historical records in order to make him remember his words and deeds carefully.

Thinking of what happened in the morning, Liang Ji held his breath in his heart. When he saw the prince coming, he didn't get up to greet him, but with a chubby face, he was struggling to copy the book.

Liang Cheng also heard about the fight between the eighth prince and the ninth prince because of a cricket. In his heart, he didn't agree with the way that the ninth prince could not win someone's love, and then became angry and destroyed the other's beloved thing. However, considering that the ninth prince was still young , Empress Li punished him for copying books again, so she stopped blaming him and brought a gadget over.

As a result, as soon as he entered the room, he found that the child seemed to be sullen, so he pretended not to know that Empress Li punished him for copying books, and asked in surprise, "Ji'er started reading historical records at such a young age?"

After all, Liang Ji was only educated, so how could he understand historical records? Empress Li didn't expect him to be able to read them thoroughly now, but it was just a trick.But even though Liang Ji couldn't understand it, he didn't want to lose face in front of Liang Cheng, so he kept his eyes on him and said, "Of course I can understand it."

The Hongwen Museum was set up in the palace, where the princes studied. After four passages, the princes began to read historical records. Liang Cheng knew that Liang Ji was talking big, but he didn't point it out. Instead, he praised: "Ji'er is really amazing, but A tall building is thousands of feet long, without a solid foundation, Ji'er can't miss the classwork of the Taifu."

Liang Ji pursed his lips and answered silently, he only lowered his head to copy the book, Liang Cheng was not very familiar with his younger brother at this time, so he said a few words of encouragement that were commonplace, and then took out the clever tools he had prepared in advance Er, said: "Ji Er, Gu just got an imported Western clock, do you want to see it?"

After hearing this, Liang Ji's ears moved, he put down his brush, looked at Liang Cheng, and said solemnly, "Of course my younger brother is willing to read what the emperor sent you."

He said it as if he wasn't interested at all, and just reluctantly took a look at you because you are my brother.

Liang Cheng didn't think it was disobedient, and smiled broadly, and put the Western clock in his hand on the table in front of Liang Ji.

It was a lacquered square low-round plant, the base was carved into the shape of a farmhouse, a persimmon tree with a crooked neck, a thatched hut, a water wheel with a clock face on it, and three birds in a small pond. Fat Duck, a yellow dog and two roosters in the yard, are carved lifelike.

Liang Ji glanced at it: "It's just a clock, what's so novel?"

Liang Cheng smiled and turned the water wheel a few times. Suddenly, the thing made music, and the animals on it moved accordingly. Three ducks swam back and forth in the pond, and the yellow dog wagged its tail and barked at the fence. The most peculiar thing was that the door of the hut opened by itself, and a young woman slid out from inside, with her right hand retracted and raised, she was just throwing rice bran to two roosters.

"Ah!" Liang Ji saw such an ingenious tool for the first time, and couldn't help but stare at it until the water wheel stopped turning, then he looked away with still insatiable interest.

Liang Cheng explained from the side: "There are traps inside, and it's the first time I've seen it. It was dedicated to the imperial court by a missionary from Franz. I was begged by Gu. Ji'er wants to try it out for himself?"

"Okay, then I'll try."

Liang Ji's eyes were already glowing at this time, how could he remember the cricket of the Eighth Prince, he stretched out his hand, and just about to turn it, he couldn't help crying out in pain, "Ah, it hurts so much!"

"What's the matter?" Liang Cheng took Liang Ji's hand, and only then noticed that there were a few red marks on the other's palm, which looked like they had been punched out by a ruler. The child's hand was already tender, but Liang Ji's palm was bruised again. The beating was swollen, and the corners of the water wheel were a bit sharp. Liang Ji was impatient, so he exerted great force, and his palm was hurt by the corners of the water wheel.

"This hand..." Liang Cheng was about to ask, but he thought that it might be caused by Empress Li, so he immediately stopped talking, blew gently on Liang Ji's palm, and said, "Why don't you use some ointment, your hand is injured?" Are you still copying books?"

Children are like this, if they fall down and someone comes to comfort them, they will get up by themselves, but if someone comes to help them, they will feel that they have been greatly wronged, howling non-stop, and adults have to coax them for a long time to stop.

This is how Liang Ji is now. Later generations of Li treat him with all kinds of pampering, as if they are afraid that she will raise him and make him useless, but once the door is closed, she is the strictest mother in the world, no matter how young Liang Ji is. , If he couldn't understand, he began to teach him intrigue, power-seeking, and even military strategy.

The Li family comes from a family of military generals, women also practice martial arts and study, no matter what formations and tactics, how to govern the country, there was once a female general, if Empress Li hadn't entered the palace, I'm afraid she could go to battle and kill the enemy.

Under Liang Ji's ear and eyes, although he didn't understand it, he was much more intelligent than ordinary children. At a young age, he already knew how to put on a show. Once.

Just now, Empress Li was a thug, a tester, and a punishment for copying books. On the contrary, Liang Ji was able to keep his face intact. In his bright eyes, concern for him seemed to be overflowing. For some reason, Liang Ji thought of the sixth prince carefully holding the eighth prince in his arms, kissing and touching him at the same time, so he felt sorry for him. , as if holding some fragile treasure, it hurt his eyes.

Now, this pretty brother who doesn't talk much to him also shows such a precious and precious look to him, Liang Ji felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart, wishing to run to the Eighth Prince right away, look, how much my brother hurts Me, he is still the prince!

Liang Ji was very proud of himself, but his fat face was wrinkled, and mist appeared in his eyes, and he pursed his mouth and said: "The queen mother said that this is for me to have a long memory, brother, brother, Ji'er's hands hurt so much. , My mother also asked me to copy books."

Hearing this, Liang Cheng was a little surprised. He knew that his mother always loved Ji'er the most. He never thought that after Ji'er made a mistake, he would be ruthless to teach him a lesson. Ji'er, don't be sad, Gu will help you apply the medicine."

Standing behind Liang Ji was the maid arranged for him by Empress Li. Hearing this, she brought the ointment and handed it to Liang Cheng. Controlling the strength is neither light nor heavy, and blowing air gently while kneading.

"Bada", a bean-sized tear dripped onto the back of Liang Cheng's hand. Liang Cheng was startled, and when he looked up, he saw Liang Ji crying with tears all over his face, his shoulders twitching, and a small transparent snot hanging from his nostrils.

Seeing the Ninth Prince like this, Liang Cheng's heart softened. It was the first time he saw Liang Ji's childish appearance. After all, when the two met in the past, one would greet them politely, and the other would return the greeting. If not, sometimes he would bring some gadgets with him, but he had never seen Liang Ji take them for fun. On the contrary, Empress Li once told him that the Ninth Prince is very playful, so it is better not to bring these gadgets, so as not to call him left. sex.

Liang Cheng actually didn't think that the Ninth Prince was very playful, but rather old-fashioned, but since Empress Li said so, he couldn't take it with him anymore, so he only gave some books, pens and ink, etc. This time, he heard about it twice. The fight between the two little princes brought a novelty, so that Liang Ji would stop snatching other people's things.

Seeing Liang Cheng smiling and looking at him silently, Liang Ji felt even more aggrieved. He didn't intend to cry at first, but when he saw his pretty brother treat him like this, tears ran out by himself. Liang Ji felt a little ashamed, so he raised his hand and He wanted to wipe it, but was stopped by Liang Cheng.

"Don't move, there are ointments on your hands, don't rub them into your eyes." Liang Cheng took out a silk handkerchief from his body, wiped away the tears on Liang Ji's face, and finally pinched the tip of Liang Ji's nose lightly, saying : "Ji'er, blow your nose."

Liang Ji felt a little embarrassed, tilted his head back, and refused to make an indecent sound in front of his beautiful brother. Seeing Liang Cheng looking at him softly, he blushed and exhaled lightly, blowing all the transparent water from his nose into his handkerchief .

Liang Cheng didn't think it was dirty either, so he folded the handkerchief and handed it to the maid behind Liang Ji, saying: "Okay, don't be sad, brother will come here often in the future."

Then he leaned into Liang Ji's ear and whispered, "I'll bring you something fun, so you don't have to ask others, but keep it a secret from your mother."

Liang Cheng's voice was very low, almost a breathy sound, and the maid on the side couldn't hear anything, and she couldn't help frowning.

Liang Ji felt that he had a little secret with his pretty brother, so he nodded with a smile, like a sneaky little milk cat, which made Liang Cheng couldn't help but pat his head.

After Liang Cheng went back, Liang Ji was still full of joy, but when he turned around and saw the maid behind him, his aura suddenly changed, his face was as heavy as iron, "I know that you will report the king's daily life to the queen mother, what should I say in the future?" , What should not be said, you have to weigh it yourself."

The palace lady was originally a confidant of Empress Li, a trace of hesitation flashed across her face when she heard this, after all, the Ninth Prince is still a child, what can he understand?

I don't want to, but Liang Ji saw her thoughts, and said with a sneer: "You said, if I tell my mother that you have neglected your duty, what will my mother do?"

The maid's face turned pale, she knelt down in panic, and kowtowed deeply: "Your servant knows what to say."

"Get up, this king will always grow up, and you can decide for yourself whether you will be loyal to your mother or this king."

After Liang Ji finished speaking, he picked up the western clock on the table and stroked the little yellow dog on it carefully.
