Drunk Bamboo

After Hua Qinfeng left the hall, he walked out with a stern face.

Not only did he not get what he wanted, he also inexplicably took on a job as the commander of the imperial guards.

Originally, I had to study with Master Zhang and manage Changfeng Tower, so I didn't have time to spend with Xie Yuzhu. Now I have even less time!

He regretted getting involved in the prince's affair. Perhaps if he had not gotten involved, the prince and the emperor could still have reconciled.

Just like Zhang Die, who seemed to be Han Jian's man, but in the end was the prince's man. No wonder the prince looked calm and composed, the evidence Han Jian forged to frame the prince turned out to be the ironclad evidence that pushed him into prison.

Han Jian certainly couldn't have thought of it, and neither did Hua Qinfeng.

It is indeed a powerful strategy to use the opponent's trick against him.

But he should know that the prince has been the most hardworking and the most outstanding among them since he was a child.

How could the prince just sit there and wait for death?

He had never fought with King Wen before, but now the war has really started.

At this moment, Hua Qinfeng happened to get the position of commander of the imperial guards, which was simply the most troublesome job.

The emperor was not being kind to him at all; he was clearly pushing him into the fire!

Just as I was worrying, Hua Qinyu chased out:

"Third brother, where are you going?"

"Leave the palace." He said lightly.

Seeing that he looked unhappy, Hua Qinyu explained:

"I tried to stop you several times in the palace just now. It was not to target you, nor was it to force you to stay in Zhongdu to help me."

Hua Qinfeng looked up, with some confusion in his eyes.

He didn't think so much. Even if he stayed in Zhongdu, no one could restrain him, and he would not stand on the side of either the Crown Prince or King Wen.

Hua Qinyu breathed a sigh of relief, smiled slightly, and patted his shoulder, like an older brother teaching a younger one, very attentively.

"Third brother is not the same as before. I know that you are not the same as before. I don't need to say more. Third brother also understands. Father doesn't want you to return to the West Frontier. Maybe it's because of years of guilt, or maybe it's because he doesn't want you to get so close to General Xiao. After all, you are a member of the royal family, not a disciple of the Xilin Xiao family."

"He didn't recruit you back for so many years, why did he suddenly use the marriage proposal to transfer you back from the western frontier?"

Hua Qinyu looked at him.

Hua Qinfeng said: "He is worried that I hold military power and have the support of the Xiao family. Just like he is afraid of Your Highness, he is also afraid that I will rebel."

Both brothers smiled bitterly.

Hua Qinyu said: "It's good enough if you understand these words clearly, Third Brother."

I used to admire this younger brother, but now I feel sorry for him.

The queen has only one child, Hua Qinyu. Now, apart from the poor eighth princess, there are only Hua Qinfeng and Hua Qinming.

Hua Qinyu really treated him as his own brother.

"Ah..." Hua Qinfeng's expression became even sadder. "But I promised Yuzhu that I would take her to Xilin to eat barbecue and to the western border to watch the stars."

Hua Qinyu suddenly laughed out loud.

My third brother hasn't changed at all.

very nice.

Seeing him laughing, Hua Qinfeng said angrily: "Don't laugh. What I promised Yuzhu is very important. If I don't do it, it will be a breach of trust. Yuzhu will not trust me anymore."

"Okay, I won't laugh. I won't laugh." Hua Qinyu had been upset for a long time, and now he felt much more open-minded.

He stopped smiling, and the next second he regained his dignified appearance, "Third brother, please be patient. From now on, you and your wife can go wherever you want, and no one dares to stop you. Please be patient for a while."

Hua Qinfeng frowned after hearing this, but before he could ask, Hua Qinming appeared.

"Times have changed. Now, my third brother has become the pride of everyone and the favorite of our father. He has been appointed as the commander of the imperial guards and has 20,000 imperial guards under his command. In the future, those who curry favor with him will probably have to step into the doorstep of the Feng Palace."

Hua Qinming lowered his eyebrows and smiled faintly, making it difficult to understand.

"My father favors you. I have a hard life, leading troops to guard the borders and the capital in Zhongdu. Unlike King Wen, he has never left Zhongdu since he was a child. He grew up under the care of my father."

Hua Qinfeng did not treat him well. After knowing what he had done secretly, there was no brotherhood between them anymore.

It was King Wen who sent people to assassinate him first, so Hua Qinfeng cannot be blamed for being ruthless.

Han Jian became a scapegoat.

He can still laugh at this moment, how inhumane.

Hua Qinfeng waved his hand, unwilling to stay any longer.

"Although you have had poor health since childhood, God has blessed you. Your parents love you so much, you should be content. Don't try to snatch what is not yours, and protect what is yours. Greed will only leave you with nothing."

Hua Qinming's face was stiff. "Third brother used to call me Fifth Brother, but now he has changed his name and said such hurtful words. Are you going to alienate me?"

"Everyone knows it well, so don't pretend. I'm tired of it. If you don't like me, just attack me directly, or complain to my father. Don't do anything shameful in private. I know it, and I will never let it go. I will definitely get to the bottom of it."

Hua Qinfeng said everything that was in his heart. Hua Qinming's face turned pale and his eyes were cold.

Hua Qinyu listened quietly and did not stop Hua Qinfeng.

Since King Wen has openly threatened to kill them, let them fight.

"How many Han Jians are there around you who can take the blame for you? How many times can your father tolerate you?"

Hua Qinfeng uttered a few harsh words and left without looking back.

"When you were young, you were weak and couldn't play with other children your age. You couldn't jump or run. He saw you were lonely, so he carried you around the palace. At that time, the smile on your face was genuinely happy. Even though he was punished by our father in the end, he never complained and always secretly carried you on his back to make you happy."

"Hua Qinming, do you still remember all this? I remember it all, how could you forget it?" Hua Qinyu's eyes were deep, "You want my position, you want me to disappear, I can understand. But you shouldn't send someone to assassinate him, he doesn't fight for fame or power, he poses no threat to you. More importantly, he recognizes you as his brother, he has always called you fifth brother."

"You asked him why he didn't call you. Wasn't it because you hurt him?"

Hua Qinming's shallow eyes flashed a touch of touch, and then he smiled coldly.

He raised his cold eyes and looked at the prince, "Your Highness is saying this now only because your father trusts my third brother. He holds the position of commander of the imperial guards and has 20,000 imperial guards at his command. If my third brother is still in the west, will your Highness still support him like this?"

Hua Qinyu shook his head in disappointment, "Third brother is right, you are just too greedy."

Hua Qinming lowered his eyebrows and smiled again, "Greed? What is greed? Is striving hard greedy? Then everyone in the world will just lie down and die."

After saying that, he walked in the direction Hua Qinfeng had just gone.

After Hua Qinming left, a plainclothes guard immediately appeared with a stern face and a long sword at his waist.

No one in the palace except the guards is allowed to carry swords.

This is the prince's personal bodyguard, who follows him at all times and can wear plain clothes in the palace.

"Wuying, from now on you will step out of the darkness and protect me."

"Subordinates obey orders."

"The people sent to the Imperial Concubine and Prince Wen don't need to be too smart, otherwise they will reveal their flaws."

"Yes. Your Highness, is there anything else you want to ask?"

"Those who are indecisive are not suitable. Zhang Die cannot be kept alive." Hua Qinyu's face was gloomy. "Find someone to take good care of his wife and children."

"Yes."

Hua Qinyu flicked his sleeves and turned to walk towards the East Palace.
