Chapter 1045: Children get beaten for speaking without restraint
“Stinky boy…” His Highness the King of Chu looked at his arrogant and calm brother. He thought for a moment and then said, “Zhi Nu, I am very touched by your kindness. But… I have my own considerations.”
"Brother, what are you thinking about?" His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin felt that this matter must not be let go so easily: "If you keep thinking like this, you will not be the only one who will suffer in the future! Look, now it is Sister Gaoyang and Brother Yiai, oh, they will soon call each other brother-in-law - in short, brother, no matter whether this matter was secretly instigated by Uncle Wuji, you can't let it go so easily. Otherwise, one day in the future, he will plot against me and Sizi, what should we do then?"
"..." When His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu heard his brother say this, he couldn't help but fall into silence.
"Brother-in-law, say something." - Seeing that his second brother didn't say anything, Zhinu turned to instigate Fang Yiai who was standing beside him.
"Uh..." It was the first time that Fang Yiai was called "brother father" by His Royal Highness Prince Jin. He couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable: "Well... His Royal Highness Prince Jin, I..."
"Alas, you still don't believe it. Third brother, come and set an example for him!" - His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin saw that Fang Yiai, his brother-in-law who had not yet married into the family, was not very motivated, so he turned around and found someone who was motivated: "Well, as long as you can help me convince my second brother, you will be treated the same as Sizi and my second brother in my place in the future!"
"Thank you..." Li Ke glared at Zhinu unhappily, then sighed and said to his second brother, "Second brother, I think what Xiaojiu said makes sense."
"What Xiaojiu said certainly makes sense." Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu patted his brother in his arms, and then said in a gentle tone: "But... Zhinu, there are some things... Second Brother cannot say to Mother..."
"Why?" Zhinu scratched his chin in confusion, "What's so difficult about this?"
"Your second brother has now reached adulthood and has a family," His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu looked at his younger brother and said in a gentle tone, "So your second brother can understand the difficulties faced by our mother."
"Brother understands mother, who can understand brother?!" Although Zhinu is young, he can always clearly feel who cares about him the most: "No, brother, I can't let you suffer this injustice. If you don't tell me, I will tell mother for you!"
"Chi Nu..." His Royal Highness the King of Chu looked at his paranoid yet adorable brother, and couldn't help but feel warm in his heart: "This is not a big deal, my second brother has a way to solve it."
"I know my second brother has a way." Li Zhi pursed his lips when he heard this: "But I am your younger brother, so I want to do something for you."
At this moment, the sincerity of His Royal Highness Prince Jin undoubtedly touched the people present.
"Zhi Nu, you are right." Li Ke, who was always mature and calm, couldn't help but say, "Third brother is also the younger brother of Second brother, so he should do something for him..."
"Xiao Ke, don't join in the fun." His Royal Highness the King of Chu raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Zhi Nu is still young, he doesn't understand many things, but you are different."
"Same..." Li Ke sighed after hearing this, and then said: "Zhi Nu, the method you mentioned earlier is useless... The reason why Duke Zhao has always been against my second brother is not because he is confused, nor because he relies on the support of his mother - the ones who really stand behind him are my father and the five surnames and seven families.
Father is now in his prime, and he will not allow my second brother to be as powerful as he was in the past - because that would be a very dangerous thing for Father and the Tang Dynasty."
"Second brother, is this really the case?" Zhinu thought about it and felt that this matter needed to be confirmed with her brother.
"Almost." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu sighed upon hearing this: "Actually... let's be fair - this uncle sometimes seems to have a little conscience, for example, he took the initiative to help your second brother speak a few fair words in front of that tyrant, or helped with other small favors - of course, this may be his way of leaving himself a way out.
But... there is one thing your third brother said that is correct, that is, if there is no tacit approval from a certain incompetent emperor, no one in the court would dare to stand up and sing against the second brother. "
"Is that so..." After hearing this shocking answer, Zhinu thought for a moment and said, "Second brother, why don't you keep me, the third brother and the fourth brother as hostages?"
"Bang!"
"Ow!"
"Thank you!" Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu slapped the other party loudly in annoyance.
"Wuwuwu... Second brother, it hurts..." The young slave was aggrieved again: "Children's words should not be restrained, second brother!"
"Since you are unwilling to hide your incompetence and just offered such a brilliant strategy to your second brother, do you still intend to let your second brother treat you as a stupid younger brother?" After teaching Zhinu a lesson, His Royal Highness the King of Chu turned to look at Li Ke and said, "Xiao Ke, don't be provoked by this brat - your identity is sensitive, and you must behave yourself when you go to your fiefdom in the future. If someone bullies you, don't get angry on the spot, but secretly remember the person and write a letter to your second brother later.
Of course, my second brother will secretly send someone to protect your safety. You have to agree to this even if you don’t agree with it. You little brat…after all, it was my second brother who drew his sword in anger to save my stupid brother. You can’t be used as a gun by others.”
"Second brother..." Li Ke looked at his second brother. He knew how difficult his current situation was, but even so, his second brother still did not forget to take care of his seemingly useless younger brother...
"Wow... Second brother..." Zhinu was moved again: "I want to cry now..."
“Aren’t you crying?” His Royal Highness the King of Chu looked at his brother in his arms and found that he had wiped his snot on his arm again: “Little bastard… It has always been your second brother who wiped his snot on others, and now he is paying back the debt he owes to you…”
"Hehe..." Zhinu laughed when he heard this: "Second brother, I have to remind you of one thing - Sizi actually knew that I left the palace. She also wanted to come at that time...but mother wouldn't let her..."
"As for Sizi, your second brother will talk to her properly." After hearing what his brother said, His Royal Highness the King of Chu couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Look at you, why are you so busy trying to stand out from the crowd at such a young age? After returning to Chang'an, continue to be a little fool for me, understand?"
"Brother, I don't understand..." Zhinu blinked her eyes when she heard this: "I am very smart, so I can help you share some of the pressure, right?"
