Phoenix Hairpin Chapter 477: Yang Mo (3)
Looking at the smiling face of the fourth prince, the eldest prince was so tired, resisted the urge to take a sip, and said without a smile: "Listening to you, it makes sense. I'll wait for that day. ."
The fourth prince smiled and said, "Don't worry, big brother. One day, as the fourth brother, I will never forget to help the big brother."
The First Prince: "..."
How can there be such a brazen person in the world!
The eldest prince twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Then I will thank the fourth brother first."
The fourth prince successfully greeted the eldest prince, grinning and smiling very happily: "We are brothers, we should support each other and take care of each other. If the eldest brother has any use for me, just say hello. I Likewise, I will never be polite to my elder brother.”
The eldest prince looked stiff and made a random excuse to leave first.
After the first prince left, the fourth prince quickened his pace and caught up with Li Jing: "Second brother, wait for me."
Li Jing slowed down and walked side by side with the Fourth Prince.
The fourth prince glanced at Li Jing from the corner of his eyes.
Li Jing smiled casually: "Why are you looking at me like this?"
The fourth prince coughed and laughed: "The father only left the third brother and the fifth brother to have lunch together. I have nowhere to go today, so I will go to the East Palace for a lunch."
Li Jing paused and turned his head.
The two brothers looked at each other and neither spoke.
Then, with a tacit understanding, he continued to move forward.
After entering the East Palace, a group of officials from the East Palace came to visit. Li Jing smiled and said, "Fourth brother came over today. I ordered the imperial kitchen to prepare a good meal, and you will also stay for dinner."
There are four resident officials in the East Palace, Fang Zi Zhan Zhouli Zhao Rui and Li Yan, who are either the prince's in-laws or the royal family. They are all young people, and they are familiar with the fourth prince.
Li Jing opened his mouth to invite each other, but everyone was polite, and each responded with a smile. Because I have to work on errands in the afternoon, I cannot drink alcohol for lunch. Fortunately, the dishes were rich and delicious, and everyone was talking and laughing, but it was also lively.
After lunch, the two Li Jing brothers went to the study to talk.
The fourth prince told Li Jingting the episode after the disbanding of the dynasty as a joke: "...the big brother is naturally careful, the father and the emperor left the third brother and the fifth brother for lunch, and he felt hot when he looked at it. Fortunately, he had the nerve to say, A few years ago, when he was by his father’s side every day, we never felt so bad for him.”
Li Jing's eyes flashed and he smiled faintly: "Big brother has always been this temper. Don't take it to heart."
The fourth prince smiled meaningfully: "It's okay for me. It's the second brother, who doesn't mind at all. It shows that he has a broad mind. It is admirable!"
Emperor Yongjia also thought that after half a year, Li Hao would forget about the revenge of killing his mother, and Li Jing and Li Hao would be able to become good brothers without any doubts.
It's just a show for Emperor Yongjia to watch.
Li Jing smiled and said nothing.
He and the Fourth Prince are indeed very close. However, that doesn't mean he'll take it to heart. Being in the heavenly family, the sibling relationship is mixed with the struggle for imperial power and family members, and it is also doomed that the brotherhood cannot be pure.
The fourth prince tried for a while, but when he saw that Li Jing was reluctant to say more, he added: "I heard that this afternoon, the third brother and the fifth brother are going to visit Concubine Su's grave. The royal father will also go there."
Li Jing nodded slightly: "Although Concubine Su made a big mistake, she has already paid for it with her life. That day, the mother ordered her to be buried in the imperial tomb, and it is convenient to go to worship."
The fourth prince touched two soft nails one after another, and he was quite interesting, and quickly pulled the topic away.
……
The so-called imperial mausoleum is actually where Li's ancestral tomb is located.
The Li family has been inherited for two hundred years. The ancestral tomb occupies a hill, and there is a large open space at the foot of the hill, all of which are enclosed. Starting from the generation of Emperor Yongjia Li Yuan, the imperial mausoleum was officially built and left for the emperor to be buried a hundred years later.
Prince Li Jing took over the task of repairing the imperial mausoleum, and he was very dedicated and often came to supervise the work. The Emperor's Mausoleum has already taken shape, and it will take about three or four years to complete the construction.
Emperor Yongjia personally rode his horse to the outside of the imperial tomb, dismounted and walked in. He was quite satisfied to see the artisans working in an orderly manner.
Li Hao and Li Chang, two brothers, silently followed behind Emperor Yongjia.
Concubine Su was just a concubine who made a mistake and was executed, and was buried in the most remote corner. A small tomb bag with the words "Su's Tomb" engraved on a simple tombstone. The grass on the tomb was sparse and sparsely blown by the wind.
Li Chang's eyes turned red, and he knelt down and cried.
Li Hao's eyes were also red, he knelt down straightly, and kowtowed three times. Xiao Nian, the servant beside him, silently offered the prepared incense, candles, paper, money, etc., and lit them one by one. Soon, smoke and fire erupted from the grave.
As the emperor, Emperor Yongjia would never kneel down and burn a few pieces of paper money himself, that's all.
Suddenly, footsteps sounded behind him, mixed with crying, and entered his ears.
Emperor Yongjia's brows moved, and when he turned around, he saw that it was the Su family.
The old and the young add up to more than 20 mouthfuls.
When Concubine Su was a palace concubine during her lifetime, the Su family followed suit, became a landlord, and lived a good life without worry about food and clothing. However, there is no official in the Su family, and they are not qualified to enter the palace to ask for peace on weekdays. Li Hao goes back to Su's house two or three times a year to send some gold, silver and jade items that are delicious and easy to use in the past.
Li Hao has been recuperating in the mansion for half a year. The Su family has visited the door several times, but they have not been able to see Li Hao's people.
Today, Li Hao sent someone to pick up the Su family early in the morning. At this time, the family dressed in filial piety clothes, each with tears in their eyes, knelt before Concubine Su's grave.
"My poor girl, why did you leave so early..." Master Su was the saddest, crying so hard that he almost fainted.
In the originally quiet imperial mausoleum, there were cries.
Emperor Yongjia frowned invisibly.
Li Hao said in a hoarse voice: "Father, the Su family has always wanted to come to the tomb. However, with their identities, they cannot enter the tomb at all. They are the relatives of the mother and concubine, I think ~IndoMTL.com~ let They came back and forth and kowtowed a few times to the mother and concubine. It also considered the whole relationship between the mother and the family."
Emperor Yongjia looked at Li Hao with red eyes, his heart softened like a stone, and he sighed: "Forget it, I won't take small things to heart."
Li Hao looked grateful: "Thank you, father and emperor."
Emperor Yongjia stayed for a while, then drove away first.
That's it, it's a great honor for the Son of Heaven to come to worship in person.
However, his mother is dead. What's the use of these decent sights?
Since he was a child, he was used to his mother's humiliation and humiliation in the house. Looking back now, it feels like a lifetime.
Li Hao knelt in silence, his handsome profile silhouetted against the firelight, like a sculpture carved by a knife.
All grief and resentment are tightly wrapped by a hard exterior. Waiting quietly for the moment when it burst out.
