Chapter 159 Seeing Through the Trap
When Cui Xiu heard what the fifth prince said, there was no joy on her face. She looked at the fifth prince with a faint look, and she looked at the fifth prince who looked confident and somewhat proud. His face was stunned.
Cui Xiu has never wanted the fifth prince to fight from the beginning to the end. She has always been carefree and put on a bad attitude, but the fifth prince just doesn't listen to her and wants to fight and listen to Ning Bin's nonsense. To imitate what the emperor was like when he was young.
If the emperor had it when he was young, the fifth prince may not have it. If the emperor didn't have it when he was young, the fifth prince certainly won't have it.
The fifth prince can learn from the emperor's temperament and his attitude towards dealing with things, but he cannot learn from the emperor's background when he was a prince. He does not have as prominent a mother's family as the emperor.
"Brother Yan, I have taught you since you were a child that things that are not yours should not be imagined."
"But you never listen to me."
Cui Xiu followed his previous instructions Thoughts, he poured cold water on the fifth prince indiscriminately, making the expression on his face a little unbearable. There was a cold air in his eyes and he did not speak.
Cui Xiu didn't say anything when she saw the fifth prince. She knew that the fifth prince must be angry, but he had something to ask of her, so he couldn't get angry with her yet.
The feeling of begging for help is unpleasant. Cui Xiu was so familiar with this feeling that he could not help but feel sour in his heart.
In the last life, she went to great lengths to pave the way for the fifth prince. He thought that everyone would stand in his camp easily, but it was her who put down her dignity and everything to win over her. The ministers, who were calculating their own interests, exchanged cups and cups.
The life of calculating people's hearts was really difficult. At that time, the fifth prince only knew how to use those rights, and never thought about who was behind these rights to guide everything for him.
He was filial to Concubine Ning, and she was left alone in the dark. She didn’t know anything, and she only thought about what was good for her son.
Cui Xiu will never forget how the fifth prince behaved and killed the cook after getting the advantage. Therefore, in this life, the fifth prince will never use the Cui family even a penny. Ask her to make some free "wedding clothes" for them.
Don’t even think about it.
"Ask yourself, do you have the real stuff to be the crown prince?"
"If you don't give up on your lofty ideals as soon as possible, it's better to think about something practical."
“Don’t be afraid that you won’t be able to climb up when the time comes. Instead, you will fall a big somersault and be covered in mud and bruised. You can make yourself feel better.”
Cui Xiu met the fifth prince. Without speaking, she said a few harsh words. In fact, she was just telling the truth, asking him to recognize the reality quickly and stop struggling in vain. But Cui Xiu understood that the fifth prince probably wouldn't listen.
If he could listen, he would have listened eight hundred years ago, but he is still like this and has not changed at all.
It is said that nature is easy to change but hard to change. What kind of habits and dispositions you have had since you were a child will be the same as your habits and dispositions when you grow up. Unless you encounter a particularly big change, there will only be such a slight change, and the rest will not be needed. Said, there is no chance of change.
The fifth prince could originally suppress his inner dissatisfaction and anger, but what Cui Xiu said was really heartbreaking. He knew where the fifth prince’s pain was, so he stabbed it hard. The fifth prince couldn't stand the knife.
Although Cui Xiu does not have a very clear understanding of the fifth prince, his shortcoming can be said to be that he knows everything.
Concubine Ning did not change her method of raising the fifth prince. Not only that, the Queen Mother also got involved. In this way, the shortcomings of the fifth prince can be said to be even worse. "Mother! Why do you always belittle me like this."
"Isn't it a good thing that I have the ambition to be the crown prince? How come other brothers and younger brothers can think about the position of crown prince, but I can't."
"You always let me live an ordinary life, but you can't. After all these years, I still don’t understand. I am a prince and my father’s son. How can I be ordinary in your eyes?” But if I don't fight, when the third brother becomes the crown prince, we will not have a good life in the future."
The fifth prince said, his mood became more and more excited, the expression on his face. His expression was aroused, and he especially wanted to prove to Cui Xiu that he was right.
The fifth prince took another step forward and continued: "Mother Concubine, I know that Concubine Chun and you have been at odds for many years."
"If the third brother succeeds to the throne in the future, the mother and son will definitely not give us a good life. They may have to stay away from Kyoto City and go to another country."
"You really Are you willing? "
The fifth prince thought, he only felt that his mother-in-law didn't want him to fight because his mother-in-law's life was so good and she didn't have anything she wanted to get. I only know about the present enjoyment, but don’t think about the future.
In the hearts of the fifth prince, Cui Xiu has always been a short-sighted person who is easily satisfied. She has never known what it means to "be born in sorrow and die in happiness", nor does she know that "people who have no foresight must have success." "near worry".
She only knew how to retreat and defend blindly, but she didn't know that the enemy had already clearly tested their bottom line, and they were just one chance away from having their bottom line collapse.
When Cui Xiu heard what the fifth prince said, which could be described as "speaking from the bottom of his heart," he showed a faint smile and said nothing, but he had already made up his mind. Ning Bin must have taught him these words.
Ning Bin knows that she only knows how to have fun in the palace every day, and has never had the consciousness of being a noble concubine. Maybe in their eyes, she is just a cautious and unsightly woman.
Looking at her from Ning Bin’s perspective, no matter how cautious she is, she should still have her own weight in mind to weigh the pros and cons. When she heard these words from the fifth prince, she might not be able to sit still. , I want to change my idea of "retreating".
And then use all his power to help and support the fifth prince.
As long as she chooses to start, there will be no chance of pausing. The fifth prince will take advantage of the Cui family's influence, and the person behind the scenes who likes the fifth prince will also add fuel to the fire and use them. The Cui family brought a good situation to the fifth prince.
In the eyes of the fifth prince, the Cui family is just a stepping stone for him to step on. All this is for him to ascend to the throne.
I'm sorry.
Cui Xiu has seen through their intentions. This time, she is not so stupidly fooled. When the fifth prince looked at her earnestly, her face deliberately showed a slightly thoughtful expression.
It seemed like he really listened to what the fifth prince said.
When the fifth prince standing aside saw this, the slight expression on his face showed the excitement of success from time to time. Everything was waiting for Cui Xiu to speak.
