The rebirth of the prince and his wife

When the atmosphere was embarrassing, Chu Yue said unexpectedly quietly: "This is the martial arts palace examination, and King Wen is not a Jinshi. After competing with Mr. Lu, is it possible that Emperor Father should select the champion for King Wen? "

When he said this, everyone was shocked.

In Chang'an City, no matter whether it is the Duke's family or the sons of officials, everyone knows that the seventh prince is the most domineering, and he was the first to have a confrontation with King Wen. Today, he was able to speak for King Wen at such a moment of attention.

Everyone was surprised, even De Shengdi was also surprised.

But the remaining three princes present didn't show much expression. Chu Yu knew that Chu Yue had been flattering Prince Wen's mansion because of Jian Yu. Chu Heng was ambushed by Chu Xiao, and later Chu Heng secretly told Chu Yu that it was Chu Yue who made people stop Chu Xiao that day, if not, he would not have escaped so easily that day.

In fact, Chu Yue did it for Jianyu, but it was not to please Wenwang's mansion. He sincerely hoped that Wenwang would win in their generation's struggle for succession.

Because only if King Wen wins, Jian Yu will be safe and wealthy for the rest of his life under Gu Youning's wings. He also thought that if King Wen loses, and whoever Chu Xiao and Chu Cheng wins, he can take Jian Yu If he wants to come, I am willing to love him and pet him, but I don't say whether Chu Xiao's succession will be able to accommodate him, even if he can accommodate him, his body is not as good as before, and the Gu poison that day hurt his body. Body, if he dies, who will take care of Jianyu?

Therefore, only if King Wen wins and Prince Wen's mansion wins, can Jianyu be safe forever, and I can see him often and know that he is doing well and happily in the rest of my life, that's all.

So Chu Yue's words were a step down for everyone, including Emperor De Sheng. As soon as his voice fell, Wen Zhuo immediately came forward to echo him.

"My minister thinks what the seventh prince said is very true. The military test is to select the pillars of the court. How important it is, and King Wen is the marshal of the three armies, with a high status. It may not be appropriate to compete with the candidates at this time." Wen Zhuo After a slight pause, he glanced at the vigorous Lu An, and continued: "If Mr. Lu really admires King Wen, you can invite us to discuss in private, and Mr. Lu is in the limelight. If the emperor can appoint you to stay In the court, maybe it can be included in the three armies, and then there will be more opportunities to compete with King Wen, wouldn't it be much more elegant than now."

As soon as Wen Zhuo finished speaking, Lu An was unconvinced, while Prime Minister Right immediately sank his face. He asked his son to participate in martial arts, but compared to Gu Junxuan, he went to the Beiya Imperial Army. He is working in the Ministry of War, how can he belong to the family of King Wen of the Three Armies, not to mention that he is against King Wen, if there is a war in the future, who would be willing to send his son to the battlefield, his eldest son can't count on him, but there is only one left The son is supporting the family, and if there is something good or bad, the bastards can't count on it.

So the Prime Minister on the right lowered his eyes, pondered for a moment, then got up immediately, saluted respectfully and said: "Master Wen is absurdly praised, the child's talent is dull, young and vigorous, how can he be worthy of being a member of the three armies."

Wen Zhuo ignored him, just smiled and said nothing.

Emperor Desheng sat in the upper seat and looked at Chu Yu calmly. Chu Yu had been drinking mung bean soup all the time. The black gold court clothes were luxurious and noble, and he had a lofty and self-contained temperament. Although he didn't say a word, he was full of flair.

The emperor nodded slightly, looked at the Prime Minister on the right after a while, and said with a smile: "Aiqing is modest, your son is in full bloom, with strong martial arts skills, it is Aiqing who teaches his son well."

"I am ashamed." The right minister bowed his head, but his back was covered in cold sweat on a hot day.

Chu Cheng didn't speak all the time, just held a folding fan, opened it, opened it and closed it, and after a long while raised his eyes to look at Lu An, who was not convinced, and Chu Xiao, who was thinking secretly, and said with a smile: "Lu An Your Excellency, why should you be ashamed, Mr. Lu wants to compete with King Wen, this is a good thing for progress."

After finishing speaking, he turned to Emperor Desheng, bowed and said, "Father, although it is not suitable for King Wen and Mr. Lu to compete today, Mr. Lu's admiration is so high that I can't live up to it. Why don't I come up with a compromise idea."

"What idea?" Emperor Desheng asked.

Chu Cheng smiled and said: "After each imperial examination system, the royal father will entertain all the ministers and have fun together. Why not hold a riding and shooting competition after the imperial examination this year, and then King Wen and Mr. Lu can participate together. If you lose, there will be no penalty, but if you win, the emperor will reward you with whatever you want, wouldn't everyone be happy?"

"This idea is so novel, but it has never been thought of before." Emperor De Sheng couldn't see any expression, turned his head to look at Chu Yu and said, "How does Chu Yu feel?"

Chu Yu hooked the corners of his lips, put down the soup bowl in his hand, stood up and saluted lazily, and said, "Father is the master, and I have no objection."

"Okay!!!!" Emperor De Sheng nodded: "Then follow what the third prince said, and the Ministry of Rites will set a date."

After the words fell, the officials thanked each other and shouted long live three times.

Chu Cheng lowered his eyes and couldn't see any expression, but Lu An looked excited, as if he could win King Wen soon and become the number one general of Dazhao.

All the civil and military officials in the court laughed at Lu An's overreaching, riding and shooting, King Wen didn't need a bow and arrow, and could beat Lu An, a fluffy kid, by throwing stones with one hand! ! !

On the day of the eagle banquet, the emperor hand-picked the top three champions, nine of them stayed in the court, and the rest were released.

After all, Lu An was not as good as Fan Xiuyuan and was named second.

As for what position will be given, Emperor De Sheng only said that it will be discussed later.

After the Ying Yang Banquet was over, the emperor left a few princes to stay overnight in the palace. Chu Yu was thinking about Gu Youning, so naturally he didn't want to, so he immediately begged to go back to the palace.

Emperor Desheng knew that this son would not be able to leave the princess for a while, so he agreed without saying anything, and the remaining three were left in the palace.

In the evening, Chu Xiao went to the Queen's Palace to pay his respects, while Chu Yue and Chu Cheng sat drinking together.

Chu Yue was a little bit cautious, saying that he had the best relationship with the princes and Chu Cheng, and they didn't treat each other as outsiders, but today he spoke for Chu Yu, with a wry smile in his heart, feeling that he was about to be separated.

Chu Cheng didn't say anything, raised his hand to pour him a glass of wine, and laughed at himself, "I never thought that one day you would speak for him."

"...I..." Chu Yue was a little speechless and opened his mouth, but he still didn't speak after all, and raised his head to drink.

"I know." Chu Cheng nodded: "You still can't let go of that child?"

Chu Yue still didn't speak, he lowered his head and stroked the wine glass, raised his head for a while and said with red eyes: "Third Brother, can we not fight against Prince Wen's Mansion?"

Chu Yue was young after all, staring at Chu Cheng for a long time speechless, on the one hand was the elder brother whom he had respected for many years, and on the other hand was the love of his life that he owed the most, he couldn't help it.

"Regret?" Chu Yue smiled lightly: "I told you back then, but you didn't listen, how are you doing now?"

"It's too late to say anything." Chu Yue sighed in a daze, and asked, "What's wrong with the third brother? Why is his mood not as calm as before after staying in the imperial mausoleum for several months?"

"People are subject to change." Chu Cheng said calmly: "Actually...you don't have to please Prince Wen's Mansion so much. If I succeed in the future, Jianyu must be yours."

"I'm not trying to please Prince Wen's mansion, I'm just thinking about Jian Yu." Chu Yue drank a few more glasses, and seemed a little drunk: "So what if Jian Yu is mine, I'm so much older than him, after a few trials. I'm afraid my bones won't last long, if I die, what will happen to Jian Yu."

These words made Chu Cheng's heart ache. He knew that the Gu poison in Chu Yue had hurt his body that day, and it was because of his own carelessness that Gu Youning and Mu Yunhan took advantage of the loophole.

Chu Yue saw his guilt, stood up and poured him a glass of wine respectfully, and then said: "Third brother treats me well, I know that even if I want to take care of everything, please remember, Chu Yue The less you will be an enemy of the third brother, you will never..."

After speaking, he got up and staggered away while drinking from the wine jar, leaving Chu Cheng speechless for a long time.

He once thought that the four of them would all end up killing each other because of the throne, and he also thought about what would happen if Chu Xiao won, what would happen if Chu Yu won, what would happen if he won, and even the least likely to succeed What will happen if Chu Yue succeeds to the throne, and what will happen to Chu Heng if he escapes halfway.

But he really didn't expect that they would be burdened by love, which would make it difficult for them.

It can be seen that the world is unpredictable, and it is by no means empty talk.

……

Gu Youning sat in the Bishuiju in a daze all day, and no one passed on the dinner, waiting for Chu Yu to come back and the two of them went out to eat, but after waiting and waiting, no one came back, feeling a little anxious, got up and opened the door to go out and stand Waiting at the door, who knows that as soon as he opened the door, he saw his prince striding towards him.

Gu Youning was stunned for a moment, before he could speak, he was picked up by the waist and kissed hard on the cheek.
