Chapter 1000 Chapter 1000(3/3)
At a time when courtiers were proposing to establish a heir apparent, it was unwise for the eldest prince to stand up to defend Han Siyuan and Tongtong. But it was precisely because of this defense that the bond of loyalty was solidified.
When the eldest prince came out, he saw Tongtong and Han Siyuan standing outside. He pulled them to the side and said, "This is wrong! Impeachment by the censor is not wrong, but it makes you suffer injustice..."
"Brother!" Han Siyuan looked at the eldest prince with a complicated look, "Brother, let's go to Yuntai tomorrow!"
Yuntai is not far from the capital, only two hours away. It is the place where Taizu and the two princes Han and Lin had a bloody sworn alliance.
Yuntai is located halfway up the mountain. There is a platform here, and later Taizu planted peach blossoms here.
At this time of year, the peach blossoms have buds, and they are as pink as the clouds.
Han Siyuan looked at the eldest prince and said all the speculations that the fourth master said yesterday: "...My sister-in-law and I will continue to make trouble, and we will have to be impeached by the censor..."
The eldest prince was stunned for a moment, and his expression gradually turned serious. He felt that what Shiro guessed was 80% accurate.
Han Siyuan was silent for a long time before saying: "At this moment, we are making such a fuss. If you don't protect us, you are unjust! If you protect us, the courtiers will think that you are too selfish and unworthy of being the crown prince! How should you choose, brother?
You have to think clearly."
The eldest prince was relieved, "So this is what you are worried about?" He walked over slowly, picked up the dagger, cut his palm open, and dripped blood into the row of drinks, then slowly knelt down, quietly
Wait quietly.
Han Siyuan glanced at Tongtong, then walked over, picked up another dagger, cut his left hand, and let the blood fall into the wine bowl. He watched the two people's blood fuse together, unable to distinguish each other.
Then he stepped back and knelt on the left rear of the eldest prince, looking ahead without squinting.
But Tongtong's eyes were full of flowers at the moment. She seemed to see three people, under the watchful eyes of everyone, becoming brothers and vowing not to be born in the same year, the same month and the same day, but to die in the same year, the same month and the same day.
She couldn't see the faces of these people clearly, but something else seemed to come to her mind, and for a moment she couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality.
She pressed hard, then stepped over step by step, picked up the last dagger, rubbed it, and scratched it on her left hand. The pain freed her from the dream-like feeling, and she slowly lifted the dagger in her palm.
Blood dripped into the wine bowl, and then he slowly knelt down to the other side of the eldest prince.
Eunuch Qiu brought a bowl of wine to each of the three of them with a serious face, and the three of them bowed to the sky:
"Heaven above, I, Jin Sirong..."
"I, Han Siyuan..."
"I, Lin Chuheng..."
"I appeal to heaven that the three of us voluntarily become brothers with different surnames. We will never leave each other in this life, share weal and woe, and stay with each other in life and death!"
After saying that, he kowtowed three times, raised the wine bowl in his hand above his head, and then slowly sprinkled it on the ground.
He turned around, took the second bowl of wine, and offered another toast:
"The soil is thick, I, Jin Sirong..."
"I, Han Siyuan..."
"I, Lin Chuheng..."
"I am informing Houtu that the three of us have voluntarily become brothers with different surnames. We will never leave each other in this life, sharing weal and woe, and accompanying each other in life and death!"
He toasted the bowl of wine to Houtu, then stood up. The three of them knelt face to face, each with a bowl of wine, toasting each other, and then drank it all!
After getting up, Jin Sirong stood at the top, Tongtong and Han Siyuan stood at the bottom, knelt down and kowtowed three times to pay homage to the eldest brother.
Then Jin Siyuan stood up, Tongtong stood up and bowed again, kneeling once and kowtowing three times to pay homage to his second brother.
The two of them bowed in return, and then the ceremony was completed!
From this day on, we are brothers. In this life, kindness and righteousness come first and must not be abandoned.
Tongtong felt that she might have done something stupid that she hadn't done in many years, but she was also very grateful. She was grateful that she had met such people and that she was still willing to be so impulsive and willingly take on other people's burdens.
Carry it on yourself.
She stood here, looking at Fourth Master from a distance.
