Phoenix Hairpin Chapter 25: Brother

In the Yihua Palace, intermittent low-pitched sobbing could be heard.

"Ahao, you saw it today... In this palace, no one looks down on me. Your father, the emperor, respects the queen, pampers the concubine, and pitys the concubine Qin. It's my turn to make a toast. are not eligible."

"In front of everyone, you will be ashamed of me. One by one, they are all watching me laugh."

"I'm ashamed today, I can't wait to dig into the cracks in the ground."

Su Zhaorong cried bitterly and sadly, tears falling down one by one.

Li Hao is both distressed and a little helpless: "Mother don't cry. You have endured all these years, let's endure it again!"

What can I do if I can't bear it?

Su Zhaorong wiped her tears with a veil, and whispered with red eyes: "Ahao, your father doesn't have me in his heart at all. If he is willing to lift me up and seal my concubine, my life will not be so difficult. "

"In those days, it was also my belly that was so proud of myself. I gave birth to you in one fell swoop, and then I got the status of a concubine. Otherwise, your royal father would have left me behind."

"In the second half of my life, I will have to count on you. Mothers are more valuable than children. One day, when you become a prince, no one will dare to bully our mother and son again."

Li Hao: "..."

As a prince, it would be a lie to say that he never thought about being a prince.

However, he is very clear in his heart that he has no advantage in the princes at all.

In terms of origin, it is not as good as the second prince. In terms of favor, it is not as good as the favored eldest prince. Even the fourth prince, relying on the support of the Queen Mother Zhao, is also more favored than him.

Want to compete for storage, easier said than done?

Mother and son never said this before. At this moment, it was abruptly said, and in addition to the excitement, there was a hint of embarrassment that was indescribable.

At this time, he was still studying in the study room, and he had neither entered the military camp nor attended the court. The civil and military officials knew a lot. The civil officials supported the second prince, and many generals supported the first prince. The noble clans are closer to the fourth prince.

He is the third prince who is not a high-born and not a favored prince. Xiao wants to be the heir of the king, which is almost like a fool's dream.

"Mother," Li Hao took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Don't say such things again in the future. The eldest brother is the eldest son, and the second brother is the direct descendant. Li Chu is nothing more than establishing the direct line and the chief, and it can't be turned around. to me."

Su Zhaorong stretched out her hand to grab her son's arm, her eyes sparkling with astonishing light: "Why can't it be your turn? Swords have no eyes on the battlefield, life and death are impermanent. Maybe both of them died on the battlefield, your father The emperor can only make you the heir..."

"Shut up!"

Li Hao's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't tell whether it was shock or anger, or the guilt and shame that the most secret thoughts in his heart were told.

The blood suddenly rises, and the heart is surging.

"Mother must never talk nonsense again!"

"We are brothers, how can we have such a rebellious mind." Li Hao suddenly stood up and said sharply: "If I think so, I don't deserve to be human!"

Su Zhaorong was also startled by Li Hao's anger, and was about to open her mouth to explain, but Li Hao walked away with a cold face.

Li Hao strode out of Yihua Palace.

The cool breeze of the spring night blows towards his face, but it fails to extinguish the indescribable flame in his heart.

All kinds of chaotic thoughts rushed through my mind.

In the bottom of his heart, a dark and ferocious beast seemed to be locked up. Today, the beast almost broke through the cage.

Why can't it be your turn? Swords have no eyes on the battlefield, life and death are impermanent. Maybe, both of them died on the battlefield, your father and emperor can only make you the heir...

The corners of Li Hao's mouth pursed extremely tightly, and his pace was getting faster and faster.

The inner servant Xiao Nian trotted all the way, barely keeping up.

Li Hao hurried back to the bedroom all the way, threw a sentence: "No need to wait, step back!" and closed the door.

His nose was almost flattened by the door panel, which was sore and painful, and tears welled up in his eyes. Xiao Nian covered his nose, bared his teeth silently for a moment, wiped his tears, and backed away.

…

This night, I don't know how many people tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

In the early morning of the next day, Li Hao, who appeared outside the Jiaofang Hall, had a dark face and bloodshot eyes.

The eldest prince is not going anywhere. The eyes are full of blue shadows, and he yawns from time to time. At first glance, he has not slept all night... The eldest prince and concubine beside him is also a little tired, and his complexion is very delicate.

"Big brother, big sister-in-law." Li Hao cupped his hands.

The First Prince returned a gift.

The eldest prince smiled and patted Li Hao on the shoulder, with a very affectionate tone: "Third brother, last night I didn't enjoy drinking well. Today I am hosting a banquet in the mansion, and our brothers got together alone and had a good drink. A few cups."

Once the princes get married, they will leave the palace and live in the prince's mansion.

Li Hao responded with a calm smile.

"Big brother and sister-in-law, third brother, you came early." The fourth prince, Li Xianren, did not arrive, and the voice arrived first.

The fourth prince is fourteen years old this year. He was born fair and beautiful, with a natural smile, and even when he wasn't smiling, he also had a bit of a smile.

After a while, the fifth prince Li Chang came.

Li Chang is not tall, and he is fat. He walks slowly, always looking a little stupid.

The eldest prince swept his eyes and laughed dumbly: "I haven't seen each other for a few months, the fifth brother has not grown up, but he has gained a lot of weight. In the future, he must practice martial arts well, and he can't get fat again. Otherwise, I am afraid that I will be even my wife in the future. I can't even marry~IndoMTL.com~ The fourth prince also found it funny and laughed together.

Li Chang didn't say a word, letting his brothers make fun of him.

Li Hao's brows were slightly wrinkled, and he opened the topic: "Why hasn't the second brother come yet? Would you like to wait for the second brother to come in together?"

"No need." The eldest prince's tone was domineering and taken for granted: "His injury hasn't healed yet, and I'm afraid he won't come today. Our brothers will go to the father and mother first, and then ask for peace." /

As soon as the voice fell, a familiar figure appeared in front of everyone.

The young man is tall and slender, neither hurried nor slow, and has a graceful demeanor.

In the bright morning light, the young man's face is clearly reflected in everyone's eyes from far to near.

Beneath the long eyebrows are a pair of bright eyes. The bridge of the nose is straight and the lips are neither thick nor thin, forming an extremely handsome face.

Everything is just right, can't add a point, can't take a point.

This young man is Li Jing, the second prince.

The second prince glanced at the eldest prince: "I heard the elder brother mention me from afar, I don't know what the elder brother said?"

The eldest prince was a little embarrassed and coughed: "You didn't show up at the palace banquet last night. I thought you were going to rest for a few days. It's just right for you to come now. Let's go to the palace together to greet you."

The second prince smiled lightly: "Everyone knows that I was injured, so I don't need to emphasize it again and again."

The First Prince: "..."

The Taoist behind it was right and wrong, but he was caught.

The eldest prince is a little embarrassed.

The fourth prince immediately opened his mouth to smooth things out: "It's getting late, let's go ahead and say goodbye!"

Li Hao echoed with a smile: "Please go ahead."

The second prince glanced over and looked over.

Li Hao and the second prince looked at each other and froze in their hearts.
