Chapter 3396 There are no kings and ministers, only father and son
Qi Xingchen put his hand on the back of Qi Xingyun’s hand and said in a deep voice: "Second brother was originally an idle prince, raising flowers, playing with birds, and listening to music. , This suits the second brother very well.”
“In terms of ambition, the second brother is not as good as the eldest brother. In terms of ability, the second brother is not as good as you. Let’s talk about my father. "The second brother is not as happy as the other little emperor brothers who died young."
"Sixth brother, the second brother is also a person who has come back from the gate of hell. In some words, the second brother is also. I won’t hide it from you.”
“We were born in the royal family, and brotherhood is the rarest thing that can be encountered but cannot be sought.”
"Most of the princes are born to be killed. The remaining ones may not be the strongest in all aspects, but they must be the most suitable to be kings."
"In the past, the second brother himself had no What ambition to dominate, but there are always some people and forces behind the second brother who will push the second brother forward."
"Born in the royal family, you do not survive alone. You must also consider the forces that are attached to you and their families."
"Now, the second brother is disabled, but he is also free."
"That position was originally there. It’s so far away from me, and there is absolutely no hope now. The forces that are attached to me behind me should know that they will no longer force me to do things that are beyond my ability.”
"So, you don't need to go to a famous doctor to heal my leg. It's good for me to be like this and I can support you with all my strength. And you, take pity on the second brother and come over to play two games of chess with the second brother when you have time. We brothers After drinking two cups and saying a few words, the second brother will be satisfied!"
Qi Xingyun raised his eyes and looked at the second emperor brother with a vicissitudes of life in front of him, his words kept lingering in his ears! Words from the bottom of my heart.
After a long time, Qi Xingyun nodded heavily.
"Second brother, from now on, we brothers will work together to resist foreign enemies. The world of Qi will definitely continue to prosper in the hands of our brothers!" Qi Xingyun said.
Qi Xingchen also held Qi Xingyun's hand tightly, "Second brother, you gave me this life. Second brother will use this incomplete body to accompany you and protect you for the rest of his life!"
...
Soon, the two brothers entered Emperor Qi's Chengqian Palace together and paid homage to Emperor Qi.
Chengqian Palace is a little deserted tonight.
Qi Huang was sitting on the main seat, with a table full of delicacies on the table in front of him. Looking at the two remaining sons in front of him, Qi Huang couldn't help but think of the other dead sons, and The eldest prince Qi Xingming is still in prison.
Qi Huang, who was nearly fifty years old, had an old look on his face and was full of emotion.
"Tonight is the first day of the Lunar New Year, the first day of a new year. I have called you two here just to have a simple home-cooked meal with my father." Come on, there is no need to be restrained."
Qi Huang raised his hand and motioned for the two brothers to sit down.
Qi Xingyun and Qi Xingchen looked at each other. When they heard Qi Huang calling himself 'father', they both understood Qi Huang's intention. After the two thanked him, they went to Qi Huang respectively according to their age. The emperor sat down on his left and right sides.
The Emperor of Qi left two eunuchs to wait in front of him, and sent the other maids and eunuchs to wait outside the palace.
"If you think about it carefully, last night was New Year's Eve. We bid farewell to the old and welcome the new. Tonight is the real New Year."
"May the new year bring a new atmosphere. The three of us, father and son, drank this glass of wine first!"
Qi Huang picked up the wine glass, and Qi Xingyun, the two brothers, also hurriedly picked up the wine glass with both hands, and the three of them drank it down in one gulp.
After three rounds of drinking, Emperor Qi’s face was stained with the color of wine, and he coughed twice.
Qi Xingchen’s expression tightened, his eyes filled with concern.
Qi Xingyun also frowned slightly.
The little eunuch on the side said cautiously: "Your Majesty, you are still taking medicine. The imperial doctor said that spicy food and alcohol are taboo..."
Qi Huang raised his hand to stop the little eunuch's dissuasion.
"I'm happy tonight, so it doesn't hurt to have a few drinks." He said. The little eunuch chirped, bowed and stepped aside.
On the table, Emperor Qi was playing with the wine glass in his hand. The emperor's eyes swept over the two sons in front of him, showing no anger or authority.
"In the past year, too many things have happened, which my father did not want to see or mention." Qi Huang said slowly.
“But things have happened, and we have to face the reality. The dead are gone, and the living must still move forward firmly.”
“Second child, sixth child, tonight My father asked you brothers to come here to warn you,”
“This world belongs to our Qi family and was built by our Qi family’s ancestors with their blood and lives.”
"You are all descendants of the Qi family, my sons. My father is old, and his body and bones are getting worse every day."
"This Qi family's country must be protected by you." Qi Huang said .
Qi Xingchen hurriedly said: "Father, you are in your prime in the Spring and Autumn Period, but you are tired because of the cold wind a few years ago."
"Given time and careful conditioning, you will be fine. Please father Don't say such depressing words, you will definitely live long live!"
Here, Qi Xingyun also said quickly: "What the second brother said is absolutely true, I hope my father will keep his dragon body! ”
Emperor Qi smiled and said: "The so-called long live long live long live words are just a kind of beautiful hope. When others shout that, we can just listen to it, but we can't really believe it."
" Even Peng Zu only lived for eight hundred years, let alone his father?" Emperor Qi smiled and shook his head again.
Brothers Qi Xingchen and Qi Xingyun stopped talking.
Qi Huang continued: "Birth, old age, illness and death are the laws of all things and the arrangements of heaven. No one can be an exception."
"So, we only need to comply with the destiny of heaven, and there is no need to do it for Those things are unfounded.”
Qi Xingchen nodded: "My father taught me very well, but my son is stupid."
Qi Huang glanced at the thin blanket covering Qi Xingchen's knees and said: "Second brother, although your legs are disabled , but as my son, your heart cannot be broken."
"Even if you are a prince in a wheelchair, you must remember this. The country of Da Qi belongs to our Qi family."
"As long as the blood of the Qi family flows in your body, you must care about the court, share the country's worries, and fully assist your sixth brother in governing the world! "
Qi Xingchen raised his hands and said solemnly: "My son will obey the teachings of his father! "
Emperor Qi turned his attention to Qi Xingyun again.
For this sixth son, Emperor Qi had very complicated feelings.
This son is his biological mother, who used to be his most beloved concubine.
For her, he could ignore the entire harem and pamper her alone.
But she could not understand the emperor's heart. He killed her with his own hands and never gave his true heart to any woman again.
In order to erase her from his memory and forget her betrayal, he deliberately ignored the son she left behind.
Knowing that his young sixth son was suffering in the harem, he deliberately turned a blind eye.
Until the child went to the military camp...
He was like grass in the cracks of stones, growing tenaciously, and unknowingly turned into a towering tree with luxuriant branches and leaves. Blocking out the sky and the sun, he was always able to turn the tide at critical moments, making it impossible for him to ignore the child's existence anymore.
