Chapter 1936: Simple exchanges and deep conversations
It is not convenient for Xuanmin and I to stay too long. There are many eyes outside the gate of your inspection department." Li Xuanci paused slightly and said solemnly, "I have a question for you."
"Brother Qi, tell me, I'll listen."
"Lao Jiu, do you really not want to be the prince?" Li Xuanci asked word for word. After asking, he looked at Li Luo slightly nervously. Li Xuanmin also pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
Li Luo looked at Li Xuanci solemnly, thought for a while, and said, "What if I want to?"
Li Xuanci hesitated and was speechless for a long time. Li Luo did not force Li Xuanci to answer. He looked at Li Xuanmin and asked, "Xuanmin, if I want to fight for the crown prince's position, what will you do?"
Li Xuanmin was stunned, pointed to his nose, and replied in shock: "Me? What should I do?"
Li Luo smiled softly and said: "Xuanmin, Qi Brother's question is not a child's play. I understand, and you also understand that there are really only the three of us here. If you don't tell me, Qi Brother and I will not force you."
You, but tonight you walked out of the gate of the Inspection Department. Although you and I are not enemies, I don’t know how much brotherly love is left."
Li Xuanmin took a breath of cold air and said with a wry smile: "Brother Ninth, if you still say you won't force me, you will threaten Brother Ten. The fire at the city gate will affect the fish in the pond. This struggle for imperial power is really serious." After finishing speaking, Li Xuanmin laughed loudly and boldly.
The little fear in his expression was swept away, and his energy suddenly soared. At this moment, his momentum was not inferior to that of Li Luo and Li Xuanci. Li Xuanmin smiled casually and said, "To be honest, if the ninth brother wants to fight for the position of the prince, the tenth brother
I have to fight even if I have no choice, but I don’t want to be Ninth Brother’s enemy. If I can’t fight, I can’t fight. I can’t do something like today, and I don’t dare to do it. If nothing else, it’s really what Seventh Brother said.
At this point, it would be easy for Jiu Ge’s skills to kill me."
"Why do you argue with me? Outside I have Shepherd Sirius, and inside I have the Inspection Department. Could it be that you want to lead a few scholars from the Hanlin Academy to fight with me for the world?"
Li Xuanmin was flabbergasted and said with a grimace: "Brother Ninth, can you please avoid hitting people in the face? I'm not very good at it, so you can't be so straightforward."
"The battle for imperial power, where does all the beating around the bush come from? You have already said that the battle for imperial power is fiercer than tigers. Talking in circles is what the civil servants and generals in the court do. Here, it has always been naked. This point
Being born into an imperial family, we know it better than anyone else."
"Hey, if Ninth Brother doesn't speak, he will be unstoppable. If he speaks, he will be unstoppable. Those people from the Hanlin Academy may not be able to pull out a hair on Ninth Brother's body. If I fight for the position of prince, my only chance is with the Queen Mother and
Father."
Li Luo nodded without saying anything. He turned to look at Li Xuanci, who had a serious look on his face, and asked, "Where is seventh brother?"
Li Xuanci's face changed several times, as if he was reluctant to give up and unwilling to give up. Finally, he sighed and said: "If you want to fight for the crown prince's position, I will help you!"
"Seventh brother, what do you think when you call me tenth brother?" Li Xuanmin exclaimed exaggeratedly.
Li Xuanci shook his head very seriously and said: "It has nothing to do with you. I have thought about this a long time ago, and more than once. What I said in the Yangxin Hall today was not something I just said out of hand. If Xuanlou becomes the prince, I will
Clothes!"
Li Xuanmin stopped making jokes and looked at Li Luo intently. Tonight at the Inspection Department brother gathering, the protagonists were not King Jin, but King Ying and King Dingtian.
"Xuanlou, what did you say?"
"Then tell the truth?"
Li Luo's joke made Li Xuanci feel discouraged instantly. He glared at Li Luo and shouted: "What do you think!"
Li Luo smiled and said loudly: "I really don't want to be a prince."
Li Xuanci guessed the answer, but he couldn't stop his heartbeat, as if a big stone had fallen from his heart, and he felt strangely a little regretful.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward. No one spoke for a while. Li Xuanmin rolled his eyes and said hurriedly: "Brother Ninth doesn't want to, and Brother Qi said he would help Brother Ninth, so why don't you two, Brother Seven and Brother Ninth, help me?"
Now, how about letting me sit on the throne of prince?"
Li Xuanci rolled his eyes at Li Xuanmin and snorted coldly: "What a beautiful idea."
"If you can't become a prince, let me think about it. A prince who doesn't want to be a prince is definitely not a good prince." Li Xuanmin said firmly, causing both Li Luo and Li Luo to laugh.
"That's Brother Seven." Li Xuanmin sighed and said sadly.
Li Xuanci glanced at Li Xuanmin and said, "What about you?"
"Me? If Ninth Brother doesn't help Seventh Brother, I can still think about it. Since Ninth Brother wants to help Seventh Brother, then why should I ask for trouble? I'm not stupid."
"What if Xuanlou doesn't help me?"
"Seventh Brother, Ninth Brother asked us to resolve the situation, so he already has his eye on you, so why should I be there?" Li Xuanmin sighed.
Li Luo was startled and looked at Li Xuanmin with admiration. Li Luo and Li Xuanmin didn't have much contact with each other on weekdays. Even though Li Xuanci had lived in Zhuocheng for a long time, he and the King of Jin were somewhat unfamiliar. It wasn't that he was wary, but Li Xuanmin was younger.
At that time, Li Xuanci and others still regarded Li Xuanmin as their younger brother. Looking back now, the young man in the past has now become an adult and can no longer be treated in the same way as before.
Li Xuanci's heart moved slightly, and he glanced at Li Xuanmin without revealing anything. There was something strange in his heart for no reason, and he was quite afraid of Li Xuanmin's intelligence. However, as a happy event was coming, he didn't care about it for the time being. He stared at Li Luo intently and asked in a deep voice: "
Xuan Lou, are you serious about what you said?" There was some enthusiasm and excitement in his tone. Li Luo didn't take it seriously and smiled kindly: "Now that things have come to this, I'm afraid it would be inappropriate for me to tell lies again. Xuan Ming's words
That’s what I want.”
"Okay!" Li Xuanci shouted, stretched out his two hands to grab the shoulders of Li Luo and Li Xuanmin, exerted a slight force, and said word by word, "One day I will be honored at the ceremony, and you and Xuanmin will be by my side, Li Xuanci.
If I break this oath, I, Li Xuanci, will be pierced through my heart with thousands of arrows and I will not end well!"
Li Luo and Li Xuanmin quickly said: "Seventh brother, you are serious."
Li Xuanci was filled with emotion. He held the shoulders of the two of them tightly and did not let go for a long time. Li Xuanmin smiled and said: "Seventh brother, it's time for us to leave. When we go out, you must not show any strange colors, so as not to disturb the palace."
Someone heard the news."
"Don't worry, I understand the importance." Li Xuanci reluctantly let go of Li Luo. He seemed to have a thousand words to say, but for a moment he had nothing to say. He just nodded heavily and lowered his voice and said, "Xuanlou, let's take a step first.
, you and I are brothers side by side, who in the world can stop us!"
"Borrow me your seventh brother's good words."
