The emperor's heart alone

Chapter 127 Prepare in advance

Xu Yunjin didn't look at Shi Junji's still ugly face, thought it over, and choked out a sentence: "...I didn't expect the third prince's temper to be so annoying."

Shi Junji snorted coldly: "Maybe it's because a big event is about to happen, I'm too excited, even in front of me, I can't help it."

Xu Yunjin was thoughtful, but did not answer Shi Junji's words: "It seems that the relationship between the third prince and you is not as good as that between him and the second prince?"

Shi Junji said "En": "Since childhood, the third younger brother has always been closer to the second younger brother. Maybe it's because I am the emperor and I always treat him seriously." Shi Junji sighed , "I am not the only one who knows what he did. How could the second brother not know? At first, he secretly persuaded the third brother to give up, but the third brother has been obsessed with it. Now the second brother no longer persuades him, only three years away." The younger brother is far away, lest the third younger brother get involved with him, and the second younger brother doesn't think about it, how could I allow others to slander him? Is his relationship with me the same as that of the third younger brother?"

After all, he is still his younger brother, even if his blood relationship is not as strong as that of the Second Prince, Shi Junji can't help but sigh a few times. He thinks that since he ascended the throne, he has never treated the Third Prince badly, but even so, it still cannot offset the Third Prince's ambition.

Xu Yunjin didn't speak. After a long time, Shi Junji came back from his trance, only to find that Xu Yunjin was already lying on the couch with his eyes closed. He called Xu Yunjin funny, and the two of them left Donglaiju together.

After returning to Xu's mansion, after teasing for a while, there was news from Zhao Ershao.It turned out that Zhao Er Shao had sent a letter to Su Shao before he went to the southwest, and stayed in a city closest to the southwest border. Su Shao rushed there overnight after receiving the letter, Zhao Er Shao made some adjustments and followed Su Shao. southwestern border.Su Shao's army was stationed in a small village on the southwestern border closest to the national border, and most of them were soldiers. When Zhao Ershao entered the small village, no one dared to trouble him because of Su Shao's care. He was more or less uncomfortable staying there as an outsider, so he wrote repeatedly to urge Xu Yunjin.

Xu Yunjin, who received the letter this time, did not just write a few words hastily as usual, but first took a look at Shi Junji who was seriously dealing with state affairs behind the desk, closed his eyes and thought for a while before making up his mind He opened his eyes, spread out the rice paper, and began to reply to Zhao Ershao.It wasn't to ask Second Young Master Zhao to be patient for a while longer, but to actually tell him what he wanted Second Young Master Zhao to do, and he believed that Young Master Su would definitely help him.

After writing the letter, Xu Yunjin went out of the house and asked Shi Junji's people who were guarding the door to retreat, leaving only Qingpei and Tanxiang behind.Xu Yunjin looked solemn, and in a low voice ordered Tan Xiang to investigate one person's affairs. When only Xu Yunjin and Qingpei were left in the yard, Xu Yunjin solemnly put the letter in Qingpei's hands: "The most trusted person by my side The person is you. I want you to swear on your life that this letter must be delivered to Second Young Master Zhao in person. If you are hijacked and lost halfway, even if you destroy this letter, you cannot let it fall into the other party’s hands. Pei, you won't let me down, will you?"

Qingpei knelt down on one knee: "Qingpei will definitely live up to my master's high expectations."

Xu Yunjin said again: "You are only given two months. If you can't come back for two months, the mission is a failure. I will arrange the next step when the time comes."

"Yes."

Looking at the place where Qingpei disappeared, Xu Yunjin was very worried. Shi Jun in the house saw that Xu Yunjin hadn't returned for a long time, so he went out of the house to look for Xu Yunjin. Shi Jun couldn't help but be surprised to see Xu Yunjin alone in the huge yard He just looked at Xu Yunjin's expression without asking any further questions, and brought Xu Yunjin back to the house. Seeing Xu Shi who was practicing crawling hard, Xu Yunjin finally let go of his worries for the time being.

"Where did Shi go? I haven't seen Shi for a long time!" The eldest prince hugged Xu Yunjin's thigh with his whole body, trying to ask Xu Shi's whereabouts in vain.

Seeing the expression on the eldest prince's face about to cry, Xu Yunjin couldn't laugh or cry. When he brought Xu Shi back to the Xu Mansion, he really didn't think much about the eldest prince. Now the eldest prince came to Changping Palace to look for Mr. Xu Shi over and over again. If you can't find it, it's fine if you're not there. The First Prince would never dare to make trouble with Shi Junji, but if he is also in Changping Palace, the First Prince will always be entangled in when he wants to make a decision. He was also a little overwhelmed.

Shi Junji finally couldn't bear the displeasure, threw the memorial in his hand on the table, strode up to Xu Yunjin, pulled the eldest prince off Xu Yunjin's lap with one hand, and scolded: "As my Daping Your Majesty, what do you look like now? Let me see you like this again, no wonder I want to punish you severely!"

Seeing the expression of the eldest prince who was about to cry, Xu Yunjin glared at Shi Junji, and rescued the eldest prince from Shi Junji's hands again: "It's true that he will be the emperor in the future, but he is still a child now, you don't want to see him like this?" The appearance is gone, we just go into the inner hall." After saying that, he stood up to bring the eldest prince in, and the eldest prince's expression immediately jumped up, every time he came to Changping Palace, either to meet Xu Yunjin or to see Xu Shi, He didn't want to meet Shi Junji at all, but Shi Junji was the one he saw the most.

Shi Jun stopped Xu Yunjin helplessly: "You know I didn't mean that." Then he said, "Why don't you take him to Xu's residence."

Xu Yunjin was taken aback: "From where?"

"Secret way." Shi Junji glanced at the bewildered eldest prince, "He is the future emperor, so he always knows, and it doesn't matter if he knows earlier now."

But Xu Yunjin felt that something was wrong, the eldest prince is still young and his temperament is uncertain, it would be fine if he is a filial and forbearing person, but if he is impatient and greedy, if the third prince intends to kill his brother today, will the eldest prince seize power and kill his father in the future?Xu Yunjin couldn't help worrying, if it was really such a person, wouldn't telling him about the secret way lead the wolf into the house?Shi Junji seemed to have seen through Xu Yunjin's thoughts, and comforted him: "Don't worry, if that day comes, I will definitely kill his head."

How did the eldest prince who was still ignorant know that in just a few minutes, Xu Yunjin doubted his character, and Shi Junji would personally kill him if he objected in the future?Fortunately, the future eldest prince grows up smoothly and succeeds to the throne. He never did anything stupid, and then suddenly woke up in the middle of the night, remembering that when he was young, Xu Yunjin and Shi Junji spoke without hesitation in front of him. In this way, it was only then that he realized what Shi Junji's words meant back then.

At that time, the imperial mausoleum was cold, dead silent and empty, and he was the only one guarding the whole world. He was already familiar with Shi Junji's indifference. In an extremely fearful mood, he didn't feel surprised that Shi Junji could say such words, but every time he thought of Xu Yunjin's distrust of him, the First Prince's heart ached beyond measure.

Let's say that Xu Yunjin agreed at the moment, so he said to the First Prince: "I'll take you to find Xu Shi, okay?"

The eldest prince nodded repeatedly, took Xu Yunjin's hand spontaneously, and looked up at Xu Yunjin: "Okay, let's go."

So Xu Yunjin and the eldest prince left Shi Junji who was still struggling to review the memorials, and went straight to Xu Yunjin's room through the secret passage.

Only then did the eldest prince know that there was such a secret way in the palace, and at the same time he understood why Xu Yunjin would suddenly appear in Changping Palace. When he arrived at the house, the eldest prince was not in a hurry to find Xu Shi, but asked Xu Yunjin: "Can I still come to you from the secret path in the future? I swear I won't let others find out!"

"If your father agrees." Xu Yunjin replied.

The eldest prince let out a sullen "Oh", and he has seen it for a long time. He doesn't say anything to Xu Shi when he plays with his father, but as long as he gets close to Xu Yunjin or pesters Xu Yunjin, his father will be unhappy. This secret way is in the imperial father's bedroom, if he came by himself, he must go through the Changping Palace, but after thinking about it, he knew that the imperial father would not let him come.

"Then can I go out of the palace and come to you again?" The eldest prince continued to ask, "Don't go through the secret path."

Xu Yunjin shook his head: "No, you can't leave the palace alone now, but if your father brings you out one day, you can follow your father to find me."

The eldest prince continued to be unhappy, thinking that his father would definitely not bring him out!At this moment, the eldest prince hoped that he could grow up quickly, so that he would not have to be brought out of the palace by his father!

Xu Yunjin ignored the Eldest Prince's little thoughts, and took the Eldest Prince directly to Xu Shi's side. Xu Shi now sleeps much less than before, and spends more time looking at the world curiously. More often, when he is capable of turning over and crawling, the people who serve him are always very busy, lest Xu Shi fall out of bed if he fails to take care of him for a while.

Seeing Xu Yunjin came to see him, Xu Shi seemed very excited, waving his arms towards Xu Yunjin, with a smirk on his face, and when Xu Yunjin was sitting on the edge of the bed, he jumped on him, babbling without knowing what he was talking about, Xu Yunjin put Xu Shi settled on his lap: "Little Xu Shi, do you still recognize who this person is?"

After all, I was still a child. Even though I had fun with the First Prince a few days ago, Xu Shi didn't recognize the First Prince after such a long time. The First Prince complained immediately. Fortunately, Xu Shi finally remembered it. Who is this person? Excitedly, he opened his arms to be hugged by the First Prince. The First Prince immediately became happy, took off his shoes and went to bed, having fun with Xu Shi.Xu Yunjin looked at the two of them from the side, and played with them from time to time at their request.

When Shi Junji rushed here in a hurry, the target was the three people who had already fallen asleep on the bed. Xu Yunjin couldn't sleep soundly. As soon as Shi Junji entered the room, Xu Yunjin woke up, frowned and rubbed his forehead .

"What's wrong?" Shi Junji asked softly.

Xu Yunjin shook his head, signaling Shi Junji not to disturb the eldest prince and Xu Shi, then got out of bed and went out the door, Shi Junji followed closely, and when he got out of the room, Shi Junji asked again: "What's wrong?"

"I have a headache, maybe I didn't sleep well just now." Xu Yunjin frowned and yawned again.

Shi Junji also frowned: "Didn't the abbot say that you would never be in danger again? Why is your head hurting again?"

"The abbot only said that I will be fine, but he didn't say that I will not get sick, okay?" Xu Yunjin walked into his room, "My health has improved a lot, but as long as I am alone, I will never get sick. A headache is nothing."
