lucky son

Just when Meng Hui was secretly thinking about how to guide the prince to show more aspects that he was familiar with, two tall figures appeared in the path of the imperial garden not far from the gazebo.

Noticing the visitor, Meng Hui remembered that his current main task was to help the crown prince ascend to the throne, and this time he came to the Imperial Garden to take the opportunity to "encounter" the prince.Gathering his mind, he put aside the prince's "skin-skinning plan" for the time being, and braced himself to deal with the visitor.

Although he didn't pay attention to it during the Buddhist banquet, Meng Hui had carefully studied the video of the light ball, and naturally recognized the two at a glance as the fourth prince born of the imperial concubine and the fifth prince, the son of the concubine Shu.

The two princes are equally outstanding among men, the fourth prince is gentle and elegant, with a smile on his face, while the fifth prince is a little off, his slightly raised chin looks like a proud little peacock. Looking carefully, the facial features are three different from the original body. Four points alike, worthy of being blood cousins.

Seeing Meng Hui and the crown prince in the gazebo, the two princes showed just the right amount of surprise and surprise, and both stepped forward to salute.

The prince sat still, just nodded slightly, and called out "fourth brother, fifth brother" with a light smile.And Meng Hui stood up, clasped his hands together, and bowed to the two princes.

"The two of us just came out of the concubine's palace. I didn't expect to meet Eldest Brother and Master Xuanzhen. It's really a coincidence." The fourth prince smiled and said, and stepped up to the gazebo, "Elder Brother and Master are playing chess?"

While speaking, he looked at the chess game that had not yet been closed, and just wanted to judge and praise one or two, so as to join the ranks of the two, but he never thought that he would see a chess game that was one-sided. .

Facing such an endgame, no matter how good the fourth prince is at dancing with his sleeves and his tongue, he really couldn't find a word of praise that neither side of the game would offend. Naturally, he choked on his next words.

Seeing that the fourth prince looked at the chess game and did not speak, the fifth prince was a little curious. He had no interest in the chess game at first, but now he poked his head over his head and burst out laughing with a "poof".

The prince's chess style is sharp and ruthless, and is very recognizable. The two princes can tell at a glance that the domineering Baizi must belong to the Prince's side, and the sunizi who was killed to pieces will naturally belong to Master Xuanzhen. up.

The two princes were originally worried that the prince would get too close to Master Xuanzhen. After all, at the Buddhist banquet yesterday, the prince praised Master Xuanzhen very highly.But now seeing Bai Zi who beat Hei Zi to the brim, the worries of the two of them eased a little - if the prince really wanted to please Master Xuan Zhen, he shouldn't be so merciless.

The two princes looked at each other and adjusted their thoughts one after another.

The crown prince doesn't like Buddhism and monks, this is something that the entire court and harem know about, and he has never bothered to hide it.When arranging the Buddhist banquet earlier, he praised Master Xuanzhen too much, probably with the intention of killing him. If Master Xuanzhen was not capable, he would have been criticized after the Buddhist banquet; It also took the opportunity to remind the emperor Xuanzhen of the relationship between Master Xuanzhen and Zuo Xiang, implying that the emperor would cut off their chances of collusion in the open, so that the five princes and one party missed the relationship with the master, and also made the master lose the help of Zuo Xiang.

——From this point of view, everything makes sense, and judging from the final result, apart from embarrassing the master, the prince's goal has indeed been successfully achieved.

Of course, all this is just their speculation. The prince's attitude is unclear at present, and the two dare not jump to conclusions. It's just a good thing to provoke one or two casually.

The fifth prince has a baby face, and is underage. Most of the time, he shows others with a lively, straightforward and outspoken face.At this time, he smiled and bent his eyebrows, looking at the prince, it was his younger brother's closeness and complaint to his elder brother: "Brother is too merciless! Master is compassionate, and his chess moves are mellow and tolerant, how can he stand up to you?" This sharp knife is cutting you to death?" After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Meng Hui again, and praised with a smile, "Master, in this game of chess, he really answered the sentence 'I don't go to hell, whoever goes to hell' .”

On the surface, the fifth prince just commented on the chess game and teased his elder brother, but actually alluded to the fact that the prince was just like him, ruthless and ferocious, just like Shura's hell.Master Xuan Zhen played chess with the prince, just like a Buddha who went to hell to save ghosts. He had a compassionate heart, but he was scarred by ghosts who didn't know how to be grateful.

Faced with the fifth prince's suggestion that he should not be with the prince, Meng Hui looked calm, as if he didn't understand at all, but smiled and sighed: "The prince's highness is very powerful in chess, and the little monk is far behind."

The prince raised his eyebrows slightly: "Since the fifth younger brother is reluctant to let the master go to hell, why don't you give up this body and play against Gu?"

The fifth prince was not disappointed that Meng Hui was indifferent to his provocation, but when he heard the prince's invitation, he turned pale: "Brother, my younger brother is not good at chess, so I can avoid playing chess with you."

"Since you are not good at playing chess, you need to practice even more." The prince gestured to Qi Ming next to him to put away the chess pieces, then pointed to the place where Meng Hui was sitting opposite him, and ordered, "Sit."

The prince occupies the position of the crown prince, he can be regarded as half a "king", and he is also the elder brother.The rest of the princes are both younger brothers and courtiers in front of him, and they can't refute his face at will - who knows what this domineering prince will do to vent his anger on himself?

The fifth prince's mouth twitched slightly.Naturally, he could turn around and leave on the pretext that he had something to do, but he was unwilling to miss this opportunity to get along with Master Xuan Zhen, so he could only grit his teeth and sit down, holding on to Heizi as well.

As for Meng Hui and the fourth prince, they sat face to face on the other two vacant stone benches.

The Fifth Prince's chess skills were far inferior to Meng Hui's, and naturally he was no match for the Prince. When the Prince faced his younger brother, his moves were more decisive and ruthless than Meng Hui's. The step made the fifth prince clumsy, throwing away his helmet and armor.

The fifth prince naturally didn't want to lose so badly in front of Master Xuanzhen, what's more, when playing chess, the prince said something to the master half in joke and half with emotion, saying that the fifth brother was taught by a famous master since he was a child, and his chess strength is not as good as that of the master. Master Shang studied chess records by himself, really quite ineffective.

After all, the fifth prince is still young, inexperienced, and the city is not too deep. After being stimulated by the prince like this, he originally wanted to simply throw in his hand and admit defeat, but at this moment he was aroused to be competitive.

However, this time, when the prince played chess, he no longer settled the game as quickly as he did when he was playing chess with Meng Hui. Instead, he looked more like Yu Junning and began to play with his opponent.

The fifth prince's sunspots were led into a trap, and the prince chased and beat them fiercely, eating most of the sunspots. Afterwards, as if he was no match for the fifth prince's dying struggle, he finally broke through the encirclement and escaped.And when the fifth prince breathed a sigh of relief and regained some confidence, he led the other party into the next trap, and the past happened again.

Meng Hui watched silently from the side, as if he saw himself when he played chess with Yu Junning, he was full of sympathy for the fifth prince.The fourth prince, who is also outstanding in chess, also saw the tricks of the prince's cat playing with the mouse. He couldn't bear to continue to see his fifth younger brother lose face, and remembering the purpose of his visit this time, he couldn't help looking up at Meng Hui, who was staring at the chessboard on the opposite side.

As the saying goes, "a real gentleman who watches chess without speaking", even if he is not judging the chess game, it is also very rude to chat and chat when the people next to him are serious about playing chess.

If he was next to the master, he could barely communicate in a low voice.But now the two are separated by a table and a chessboard. The fourth prince, who was strictly taught by the imperial concubine since childhood, must conform to the royal demeanor in every word and deed .

——The prince's invitation simply cut off the opportunity for two people to strike up a conversation with the master at the same time. It really is a good plan to kill two birds with one stone.

Due to the prince's "deliberately releasing water", this game of chess took a lot of time. The fifth prince was exhausted physically and mentally from the prince's torture, and his struggle and resistance became weaker and weaker. Only then was the prince who had finally played enough to seal the victory.

Throwing away the chess piece in his hand, the fifth prince looked at the chess board in front of him that was even more tragic than the previous one, and he felt a little uncomfortable.After breaking away from the situation of "the fan of the authorities", he clearly felt the prince's contempt and teasing for him, and he was so angry that he was about to explode.

Taking a deep breath, the fifth prince barely resisted the urge to overturn the chessboard, and was about to say a few words to ease his embarrassment when he heard his good prince brother smile and say: "Master, it's getting late , we should go back to the East Palace for dinner."

While speaking, the prince stood up and nodded to the fourth and fifth princes, "Master Gu and Master go ahead, the fourth and fifth brothers have been busy all morning, so let's go back to eat as soon as possible. Especially the fifth brother, this time he went to hell , but you have to take a good rest and recuperate."

The fourth prince was slightly taken aback, while the fifth prince gritted his teeth even more when he heard the prince's irony towards him.

Standing up abruptly, the fifth prince didn't want to see the prince's face that seemed to be showing off his power, so he reluctantly said "brother is indeed tired" before turning his head and leaving.

The fourth prince didn't turn his head when he saw the fifth prince, and there was nothing he could do.He has a heavy burden of idols, since the crown prince has made it clear that he wants to take Master Xuanzhen back to the East Palace for dinner, and has no intention of inviting him to join him, the fourth prince can't stop being entangled, so he can only forcefully smile and send the two of them off respectfully.

Speaking of it, the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince came together this time, not because they met by accident, but because they had an early discussion and formed an alliance to "show face" in front of Master Xuan Zhen.

The fourth prince is knowledgeable and talented, and in order to please the emperor, he knows a lot about Buddhist classics, so he is fully capable of talking freely with Master Xuanzhen and winning his appreciation and favor.And the fifth prince can take advantage of his young age to be ashamed, so as not to disagree with the prince, and drag Master Xuanzhen to leave first—just like Cai Cai, if the fifth prince is not so angry that the prince turned around and left, he can completely pester him The prince went to the East Palace for dinner.As long as the prince doesn't want to tear his face and hurt the superficial harmony between the brothers, he will probably agree with his nose, and the fourth prince will naturally have an excuse to follow along.

Such a combination of movement and silence should be said to have been fully considered, but they never thought that they hadn't started the plan, but because of the fifth prince's "momentary slip of the tongue", the prince seized the opportunity, and since then they have made one wrong step and one step at a time. .

The fifth prince was tortured to death by the chess game, while the fourth prince sat beside him blankly for most of the day, not to mention showing off his Buddhist attainments, he didn't even have a word with Master Xuanzhen.

Watching the figure of the prince and the master disappear at the end of the imperial garden path, no matter how good the fourth prince is, he couldn't help but darken his face at this moment, and secretly scolded the fifth prince for not being able to live up to his expectations. .

The fourth prince and fifth prince were so upset that they doubted their lives, and Meng Hui who was with the prince also doubted his previous judgment on the mission.

Although he hadn't had much contact with the fourth and fifth princes this time, seeing how the prince easily suppressed the two with just a few words and a game of chess, Meng Hui was a little confused about why he came to this world. Well.

With the current crown prince's uncompromising posture and his knowledge of his younger brother's flaws, the rest of the princes would not be able to make any troubles in front of him, and they did not need Meng Hui's assistance at all.

So... was this a mistake in my own judgment?Isn't the suppression of world consciousness fulfilled on the rest of the princes who seized the heir?But another aspect?

Looking sideways at the handsome, handsome and noble prince, Meng Hui fell into a deep silence.

The author has something to say: Reading the comments in the last chapter, most people are still confused about the prince’s name, but there are a few people who have answered the name. It’s really gratifying. Are you really careful when you read the text~ wow~
