Hairpin Phoenix

   Chapter 476 Yang Conspiracy (2)

  Li Chang lived in the mansion of the Third Prince for half a year. Every day he was brought into the study by his elder brother to study, and he was very familiar with the study.

   He walked around in the study like an ant on a hot pan.

   "What are you looking for in a hurry?" Li Hao's voice sounded at the door.

  Li Chang's eyes lit up, but he didn't turn around and rushed forward: "Third brother! You should remember what you said to your father today! Which girl do you want to marry me?"

  Li Hao didn't speak in a hurry, went into the study and closed the door. Then sit down in a chair.

  Li Chang was trained as a habit, walked over honestly, and took a seat opposite Li Hao. Li Hao is a head taller than him, and he can look down at him while sitting on a chair: "You can guess first."

   In the past six months, Li Hao spent a lot of thought on training Li Chang. He taught him to read and practice martial arts, but also taught Li Chang to be a man and do things from time to time. Li Chang has made great progress. Hearing his brother's question, he thought for a moment and said, "I guess the third brother will definitely ask me to marry a general girl."

   "At first, several princes and concubines were born in the family, and their parents' families were powerful. My future princes and concubines should not be too low."

   "Secondly, the third brother will face the East Palace sooner or later. It is also necessary to win over important officials in the court through marriage."

  Li Hao flashed a smile in his eyes and praised: "Sure enough, I have grown."

  Li Chang was overjoyed and grinned: "Third brother, don't make me want to. Tell me quickly, which girl is this girl from?"

  Li Hao twitched the corners of his mouth and spit out a few words: "The five girls of the Xingyang Palace."

  Li Chang: "..."

  Li Chang's smile froze at the corner of his mouth, his small eyes suddenly widened, full of shock and disbelief: "Third brother, are you kidding me!"

   "How could I be joking about such an important matter." Li Hao said lightly: "I told my father this afternoon in the Wenhua Palace. My father said that I would consider it for a few days before making a decision."

   "How can this work!"

Li Chang was so anxious that his forehead was sweating: "Lu Mingyu is the jewel in the palm of King Xingyang, and all the secret guards that the Lu family raised were given to her. Half a year ago, the elites of the Xingyang army were taken away and sent to Lu Mingyu's farm. The Lu family will support the East Palace wholeheartedly. Even if I marry Lu Wu girl and come back, the Lu family will not turn around to support our brother."

   "Besides, Lu Mingyu killed his mother-in-law with his own hands, and we have a deadly grudge against her. How can I marry her sister! No way! Absolutely not!"

Compared with Li Chang's anger, Li Hao was calm and calm: "Why not. Who said we and the Crown Princess are deadly enemies? When you marry Lu Wu girl, we and the Lu family will become in-laws. You and Second brother is both brother and brother-in-law, how close."

   "Don't mention the mother and concubine in the future, let alone mention any death vengeance."

   "Turn battles into jade and silk, and the brothers are in harmony. This is what the father is most happy to see."

After    finished speaking, he gave Li Chang a deep look.

   That look was like ice water pouring over his head.

  Li Chang's heart fire instantly extinguished. The whole person also calmed down.

   With the current strength of their brothers, let alone revenge, it is not easy to live in peace. Without the protection of their mother, in the face of the powerful East Palace, the only one they can rely on is Emperor Yongjia.

  Li Chang thought about this over and over a few times, gritted his teeth and said cruelly: "It's okay, as long as it makes the father happy, marry it!"

   A complex light flashed in Li Hao's eyes, and he said slowly: "Anyway, it's good to know what you have in mind. It's hard to say whether this thing can be done or not. The royal father told me not to tell anyone about it."

   "Tomorrow we will go to the grave of the mother and concubine, and the royal father will also go there. You must be cautious when speaking in front of the royal father. If you don't understand, talk less."

  Li Chang always listened to his brother's words, and nodded in response.

Li Hao glanced at Li Chang, and suddenly smiled: "Didn't you always want to marry a prince concubine with a good-looking family and a rich dowry? The only weakness of Miss Lu Wu is only the righteous daughter of the King of Xingyang. The rest are all in line with The expectations in your heart. What else are you unhappy about?"

  Lu Mingyue often goes in and out of the East Palace, and Li Chang has seen her several times.

  Thinking of that pretty girl, Li Chang's heart was hot, and a red tide appeared on his fat face: "Third brother has thoughtful about me, I will listen to third brother."

   Li Hao smiled and whispered.

  Li Chang listened, nodding from time to time.

  …

   The next day, Li Hao and Li Chang appeared in the Golden Palace.

  Li Jing smiled and greeted them, and the eldest prince and the fourth prince also came over. The five brothers stood in one place, talking and laughing, in harmony.

   In this scene, in the eyes of all the ministers, all the ministers have their own calculations.

  Today is the Great Court Meeting, and all the civil servants and generals are here. King Lu Lin of Xingyang, and Marquis Puyang of Guangping stood in the forefront of the generals. On the side of Wenchen, headed by Elder Qiao Ge, the six ministers stood in sequence.

  The emperor has not yet approached the court, and the ministers are not cautious, and talk together in twos and threes.

  Tobe's noble book was ridiculed by everyone.

   "Gao Shangshu has an extra princess daughter-in-law, who will be the emperor's in-laws in the future."

   "Isn't it? We have to congratulate Gao Shangshu."

   Gao Shangshu laughed again and again: "Don't dare to be so arrogant. It is a happy event for the Gao family to be able to be the master."

  The titles of generals can be inherited. Civil servants are not so good. Once he is retired, he will immediately fall from the top circle. Not even Qiaofu can be excluded.

   Several princes and concubines, including the crown prince, were born in the door. This also made all the honorable generals leap above all the ministers.

  The Gao family had a concubine and married the Tian family. In the future, Princess Jing'an will give birth to a child named Gao, and the eldest son will also inherit the title. Such a good thing, how can it not make the civil servants envious?

   "Congratulations to the emperor to come to court!"

   Eunuch Liu's slightly sharp voice sounded.

  All the ministers immediately stood and cupped their hands: "I respectfully welcome the emperor."

  Emperor Yongjia in a dragon robe walked into the Golden Palace. After sitting on the dragon chair, he raised his voice and said, "Everyone loves to be flat."

  All the ministers thanked Long En and got up one after another.

  Emperor Yongjia's gaze swept across Li Jing and Li Hao's brothers, and soon fell on the faces of the ministers: "What is the matter of the Aiqings?"

  Qiao Ge Lao took the lead in coming out, and began to play the recent important events in the DPRK and China.

  The Great Court went on for half a day.

After the    court disbanded, Emperor Yongjia left Li Hao and Li Chang brothers behind.

  The eldest prince was full of jealousy and hatred in his heart, and said to the fourth prince: "Look, now the third brother is the father's favorite. Even the prince's holy family is not as good as the third brother."

  The fourth prince chuckled: "I used to be the eldest brother, the second brother, and now the third brother. According to this inference, it will be my turn soon."

   First Prince: "..."
