When Qiu Zhen was five years old, Feng Qi sent him to the upper study room and told him that he would study hard from now on.Qiu Zhen has been a conscientious and obedient baby since he was a child, he nodded obediently, and took the companions Feng Qi carefully selected for him to the study room.

In the past ten years, the masters in the study room have become accustomed to the unique learning ability of the third prince, so the teaching progress has been accelerated, which directly led to the fact that the fourth prince also studied in the study room for more than ten years, and did not listen to it. Understand a few words of what the masters said.

Fortunately, Qiu Tangzhi is not here, Xiao Xieyi and Su Yu don't have any requirements for his studies, so the masters let him go, anyway, the fourth prince is not a naughty one, although he doesn't like to attend lectures, that is, Sleep by yourself and never disturb others in class.

Qiuzhen is different. Although he has been spoiled by others since he was a child, he has a meticulous temperament. He is very serious in his work and never cheats. The masters teach too fast. If he can't keep up, he will naturally raise opinions, and then the master We learned our lesson and slowed down.

It’s just that some masters may have taught Qiu Chen for too long, and the fast speed has become a habit. Qiu Zhen shouted to slow down, and they would correct it immediately, but as they talked, they would involuntarily speed up. People reminded me that I couldn't stop at all.

Qiu Zhen was very curious, and asked someone to find out the reason. Then he realized that the third brother who looked lazy all day long and did things carelessly, was so good at reading. Better than the prince's brother.

The prince's learning content is very rich, including four books and five classics in the morning, bow horse riding and archery in the afternoon, with both civil and military skills.Perhaps the fathers were not young when they had him. Although Qiuzhen was born fat and fat, stronger than his elder brothers, but in terms of physique, he was no better than them, no matter Qiuran or Qiuchen, Man Yue In the future, I seldom get sick, and my riding and archery skills are better than the other. Qiu Zhen is not good enough. Before his first birthday, he got sick a lot. In recent years, he has gotten better, but his performance in riding and archery is far worse than that of his peers. Brothers.

Qiu Zhen went to school for more than a month, and all he heard was the heroic deeds of the third brother, more than that of the prince's elder brother, so he couldn't help but feel a little strange, is the third brother really that good.He was with his father and father before, why did he hear every day how the third brother was not serious, how disobedient, how the father wanted him to do something, but always pushed back and forth, and did not take the opportunity to ask for something Good thing, don't bother to move at all.At the beginning of the year, if the father hadn't lost his temper, the third brother would not have personally gone to Fuhai to negotiate with the Westerners.

When the third brother came back from Fuhai, he had to ask him, why didn't he help his father when he was so powerful, but tried to be lazy.The eldest brother is in the fiefdom, and there are letters coming back every month, but people will not come. The fourth brother is keen on piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and has no interest in those matters. The third brother, like him, is the brother of the prince's brother Why don't you help him a little more, it's wrong for him to be lazy, Qiu Zhen bit the pen and thought seriously, planning to ask Qiu Chen to come back.

At the end of May, Qiu Chen returned to Beijing from Fuhai and brought gifts to everyone in the palace, and Qiu Zhen also got a big box.After finishing his things, he wanted to talk to Qiu Chen, but unexpectedly Qiu Chen was not in the room, and the little maid told him that the third prince went to Changxin Palace to find the fourth prince.

Qiu Zhen thought for a while, and took his people to Changxin Palace. It was not far from Qifeng Palace anyway, and he knew the way.Su Yu was very happy to see Qiu Zhen, and asked someone to bring him a lot of snacks. When Qiu Zhen was full, he covered his round belly and asked where the third and fourth brothers were.

Su Yu told him that the gazebo in the Imperial Garden could be seen from the back door of Changxin Palace, and ordered someone to show him the way.

Arriving at the Imperial Garden, Qiuzhen saw Qiuchen and Qiutang sitting in the gazebo by the lake from a long distance away. They chatted and ate snacks, with a very happy expression on their faces. He tilted his head and thought about it, and called the people around him Don't follow, and then touched it lightly.

Qiu Chen was chatting with Qiu Tang, suddenly he raised his eyebrows and smiled, with an indescribably weird expression.

"Third Brother, did you listen to me?" Qiu Tang was talking vigorously, and found that Qiu Chen was distracted, very depressed.

"Tangtang, I'm sorry, you say it again, I didn't hear it." Qiu Chen smiled embarrassedly, he just found out that their little Fuwa sneaked over, that little thing thought he was hiding in the bushes. Can't see it, beware of being bitten by mosquitoes.

Qiutang looked at the sky speechlessly, "Third brother, I didn't say that you have been avoiding the emperor like this, and there is no way."

"I know that my father asked me to do things for my own good, but if this goes on, the relationship between me and the prince brother will become even more difficult." Qiu Chen said with a long breath, with a look of helplessness on his face, he If he doesn't do anything, the father will be unhappy at most, it's no big deal, but if he does too much, he and the prince brother may really not be able to go back.From childhood to adulthood, Qiuchen and Qiuran have the best relationship, better than Qiutang, but in the past two years, it has been a bit difficult, which makes Qiuchen very troubled.

There are two reasons for the delicate relationship between Qiuchen and Qiuran. One is that after six years of marriage, the crown prince has never had a son, and he still refuses to marry his side concubine. People's speculation has diverged from the crown princess's jealousy to other directions; It was Qiuchen who turned [-] last year. Xiao wrote that he was successful in his studies, so he asked him to join the court in advance and help him do some things.If these two things are separated, there will be no effect, but when they are combined, it will be terrible. Although Qiu Chen is usually lazy, he is very capable in handling things. Xiao Xieyi praised him several times.

In this way, it is inevitable that imaginative people will make up their minds, whether the emperor has the idea of ​​​​changing the prince, and some people, out of their own ulterior motives, start to make fun of it, trying to lead the court to The direction of confusion so that you can profit from it yourself.

"Third Brother, have you ever thought about what you would do if the Crown Prince really had no son?" Outsiders may not know, but Qiu Tang and the others know that besides the Crown Princess, there are two other concubines in the Eastern Palace. They can be childless for six years, let alone in the future.

"I've thought about it, but I'm determined not to join in." Qiu Tang thought that Qiu Chen would hesitate, but he said immediately without hesitation: "It's just that the prince's brother really has no children, and Fuwa, he is 17 years younger than the prince's brother Years old, brothers and sisters are also acceptable."

Qiutang was a little surprised by this answer. He didn't expect that Qiuchen would skip the step of adopting a stepchild, but he still said: "Third brother, it's easy for you to say now, but you have to have a son before the prince." Son, I'm afraid that someone in the court will have trouble."

Qiu Chen curled his lips disapprovingly, and said with a sneer, "I won't give them such a chance." Wanting to use his son to trouble the prince's elder brother, some people are too courageous, but he dared Guaranteed, none of them have such a chance.

"But third brother, you can't keep getting married, not to mention other people, even the emperor will not allow it." Qiu Tang thought that Qiu Chen's plan was to delay his own marriage. He has no son, so the topic of adoptiveness, It will never be brought to the table.

"Who says I'm not married, then Long Ji will cry to death." Qiu Chen shook his head vigorously, like a rattle.

With a flash of inspiration, Qiutang's eyes lit up, and she suddenly said, "Third brother, don't you think you want to make yourself..."

Qiu Chen interrupted him with a smile, "That's right, Tang Tang, that's what you thought, thank you very much, Third Brother." Qiu Tang hugged him violently, not knowing what to say excitedly. If Chen can marry Longji, he will definitely be able to marry himself.

Afterwards, Qiu Chen waved in the direction of the grass, "Fuwa, is it enough to feed the mosquitoes?"

Qiuzhen hid in the grass and was bitten by mosquitoes for several red envelopes, which was very uncomfortable. At this time, when he heard Qiuchen calling him, he didn't care about the eavesdropping being discovered by them, so he ran to the gazebo and grabbed the After taking several sips of cold water on the table, I felt alive again.

He raised his head and asked Qiu Chen seriously, "Third brother, is it because of the prince brother that you did this?"

Qiu Chen shook his head lightly, "I'm for myself, Long Ji can't marry me, no matter how much I like him, I won't." Qiu Chen didn't tell the truth, if that person wasn't Qiu Ran, or his favorite since childhood Brother, he wouldn't show his withdrawal in such a way.

Qiu Zhen nodded his head half-understood, but he felt that what the masters said was right, the third brother is really a very powerful person.If he's not powerful enough, he doesn't have to avoid it. His very existence is a threat to the prince's brother, even if he doesn't think about what to do.

A few days later, Qiu Chen found Xiao Xieyi and asked him to marry him and Long Ji, which frightened Xiao Xieyi into a fool.

After a long time, Xiao Xieyi came to his senses, scolded Qiu Chen severely, and then drove him out.No mistake, how could his son marry someone else, not even his childhood sweetheart cousin, if Qiu Chen dared to bring up this matter again, he would send Long Ji into exile.

Qiu Chen was not discouraged, Xiao Xieyi's way was blocked, so he went to beg Feng Qi, anyway, in their family, father has the final say.

In the end, Xiao Xieyi made the will of bestowing marriage. He understood that this was the best way at the moment.

After hearing the news, Qiu Ran couldn't accept it. He found Qiu Chen and asked him why he did this, and whether it was for himself.

Qiu Chen still refused to tell the truth, "Brother Prince, don't overestimate yourself, okay, if I don't like Long Ji, how can I marry him." Qiu Chen is not someone who will force himself, anyone other than Long Ji No one would let him think like this.

"Chen Chen, the second brother is so sad, so in your heart, the second brother is not as important as the cousin." Qiu Ran hugged Qiu Chen from behind, although he used a joking tone, but what he said was not a joke, He had a feeling that his Chenchen was going to leave him completely this time.

"Brother Prince is very important, just as important as cousin." Qiu Chen finally told the truth, just like Zhuo Zhou 15 years ago, he grabbed Qiu Ran with one hand and Long Ji with the other. The weight of two people in his life is irreplaceable.

Xiao Xieyi and Feng Qi learned the content of the two sons' conversation from the shadow guards, and they were silent for a long time.

"Qiu Chen is a good boy, I made him difficult." Xiao Xieyi sighed softly. He didn't want to see Qiu Chen's talents go to waste, so he was allowed to work in the court. He didn't want Qiu Chen's appearance itself to make people feel so Too much reverie may even endanger their brotherhood.

But Feng Qi smiled, "The choice is made by Qiu Chen himself, as long as he doesn't regret it, why should we say more."

In the 38th year of Wanchang, Jinyang King Xiao Qiuchen descended from the Second Young Master Longji of the Duke of Wei's Mansion and became the first prince to marry since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty; the next year, Qingyang King Xiao Qiutang followed his elder brother's footsteps and married himself. , the son-in-law is the new top scholar Yin Mingying.

In the 40th year of Wanchang, the prince and his wife, who had been married for ten years, finally had their son. The emperor was overjoyed and ordered the world to be amnesty. The emperor announced his abdication, and passed on the throne to the prince Qiuran, who was changed to Yuan Jinghe the following year.
