Chapter 300: Ferocious
Chapter 300: Ferocious
Ferocious Princess Ding felt that her husband was really brave and strong. He was already over 40 years old and was even stronger than he was back then. But on the other hand, Princess Ding felt that he was too brave and strong. Wasn’t the look in his eyes strange?
Being stared at like this by his wife and children, Prince Ding had no words to express his grievances. Feeling depressed, he could only go outside to relieve his anguish.
However, what Prince Ding did not expect was that even outside he could not live in peace. The Fifth Prince changed his usual behaviour and came up to Prince Ding on his own initiative after seeing him.
Now that everyone is a prince, and things have already been decided, they are not as competitive with each other as before. Except for the Eighth Prince, the Fifth Prince and the Seventh Prince have started talking more.
Especially at this time, the fifth prince actually took the initiative to tease his elder brother: “If you had this ability back then, I’m afraid you wouldn’t be in this situation today.”
The Fifth Prince was known for his outspokenness, and he spoke directly whatever was on his mind.
The seventh prince’s eyes were also extremely strange. How could he not know before that his elder brother was so brave and brave, and he single-handedly turned the tide and saved the Great Zhou from danger? Could it be that he, with a broken leg, had opened up his Ren and Du meridians?
This was really not done by him!
Can you at least ask these people a few questions?
Upon hearing this, Prince Ding became even more annoyed: “Get out, get out, all of you!”The fifth prince was immediately furious: “Hey! Who is this? We are praising him, aren’t we? Why is he not happy?”
However, Prince Ding turned a deaf ear to him and was too lazy to talk to him. He just left the Fifth Prince with his back.
The Seventh Prince stood there and thought for a while, and felt that this matter was a bit strange, and even his eldest brother’s reaction was strange. Look at how he reacted when he won the battle, and then look at how he reacted now. Could it be that a person can really change so much after breaking a leg?
But no matter what the truth is, it’s a good thing that the Great Zhou won.
The Seventh Prince and the Fifth Prince only stopped after seeing Prince Ding. As soon as Prince Ding left, they turned around almost subconsciously and went about their own business without saying a word to each other.
Prince Ding felt that he should not have come out today. He did not expect that he would be so unlucky.
First, he met the two younger brothers, and after a while, he ran into the two uncles in the teahouse.
Prince Jin and Prince Su are old, and various injuries are gradually showing. Since they helped Ye Shuo ascend the throne, they have gradually stopped taking care of things. The burden they are now carrying will sooner or later fall on Prince Ding. After such a long period of observation, Prince Ding is almost certain to be the next person in charge of the royal family.
As for the Fifth Prince and the others, we still have to observe them. However, in Prince Su’s opinion, there is not much hope for the remaining people. R??????
Seeing a familiar figure, Prince Su took the initiative to invite him, “It’s rare to meet on the street, come sit together.”
After all, he is his uncle, and Prince Ding cannot fail to give him face. He can only suppress the depression in his heart and go upstairs.
As expected, Prince Ding soon noticed the slightly regretful looks in the eyes of his two uncles when they looked at the crutches in his hands.
What a good child, how come he is missing a leg? Or, why didn’t he show such talent in his early years? The eldest son of the emperor’s brother finally woke up too late.
Prince Ding dared to lose his temper with his two younger brothers, but he had to be careful when facing Prince Su and Prince Jin.
After finally sending the two old princes away, Prince Ding’s face was frozen with a smile.
I thought the matter was over here, but when I went to court the next day, there was another wave of complaints from the censors.
Now that the affairs of the Great Zhou are returning to their normal track, you gentlemen don’t need to worry so much. Once people have free time, won’t they start looking for trouble?
There were endless arguments in the court regarding the killing of the surrendered soldiers. Some people felt that they had to be killed no matter what under the circumstances at the time, while others who had not personally experienced the cruelty of the battlefield felt that such bloodlust was too brutal.
Seeing the ministers in front of him arguing with red faces and saying all kinds of things, Prince Ding, who was at the centre of the storm, not only did not feel the slightest ripple in his heart, but he even wanted to laugh.
If they had asked, it wouldn’t have turned out like this.
However, in the opinion of several censors, Prince Ding’s sudden outburst with a basis is much more reliable than the emperor’s single-handed effort to turn the tide.
The resentment in Prince Ding’s eyes almost solidified into reality.
This group of people had no idea what the scene was like at the time because they had not seen it with their own eyes. General Xu and General Fang later became even more obedient to him, and the military power on the border also fell into the hands of his younger brother in disguise. Thinking about it this way, all the benefits were his, and all the infamy was his.
The more Prince Ding thought about it, the more he felt that his brother might have planned this from the beginning.??
Ye Shuo felt uneasy when being stared at by his cheap brother. After thinking about it carefully, Ye Shuo felt that this was indeed not fair.
So Ye Shuo decided to let him die with a clear conscience.
“Okay, stop arguing!”
Following a loud shout, the ministers below suddenly became quiet.
After resting for a few days, Ye Shuo gradually recovered and was in much better spirits than before.
Ye Shuo took a deep breath and said very seriously: “To be honest, I did all the things you said. Not only did I personally order the killing of the Beiting people, I also personally killed General Lan Feng and the deputy general beside Lan Feng, who were also pierced like candied haws by a few of my arrows.”
“Do you have anything else to say now?”
When Prince Ding heard this, his expression suddenly changed. He felt that his brother was not so annoying anymore. At least he defended himself in the end, didn’t he?
After Prince Ding broke free, he felt a little guilty. It was just some gossip, so why should he be afraid?
However, before Prince Ding could begin to be moved, He Xiang and others who had been silent finally spoke: “Your Majesty, we have no objection.”
Several censors did not expect that He Xiang and others would actually say such words. Seeing that they really did not seem to care, several censors who were arguing with reason felt as if their necks were strangled and they were completely stunned.
Why did He Xiang and the others become so tolerant when his younger brother said he did it?
Prince Ding observed for a while, and then discovered with sadness that they didn’t believe it at all!
In the eyes of He Xiang and others, unless they saw it with their own eyes, they would never believe that the emperor could have such a brave side.
You know, when the emperor came back a few days ago, his pale face was still fresh in the memory of Prime Minister He and others.
As for the battle reports and various news coming from the border, they are also easy to explain. After all, His Majesty is the emperor. As long as something happens in the army, as long as it is a good thing, it will naturally be attributed to his credit.
What’s more, in the eyes of He Xiang and other old ministers, the reason why his younger brother said this was probably to protect him as the eldest brother.
But what he said was obviously true! It was true to every word!
Prince Ding finally understood how his father had been deceived by him. No, that’s not right. He was not deceived at all, because he seemed to never tell lies. It was just that the truth he said was even more false than the lies.
His younger brother just happened to have such ability, and Prince Ding was completely unprepared to resist.
However, after He Xiang and the others left, Ye Shuo showed a different look.
“I plan to start with the State of Chen. What do you think?”
Ye Shuo’s tone was extremely calm, but over the years, Wei Wen had gotten to know him quite well, so he naturally knew that since he had already said it, he must have already made up his mind.
As for Xing Yucheng, who had just been pulled in, he was still confused.
Looking at Prince Ding standing aside, his expression had gradually become ferocious.
At this moment, Prince Ding really wanted to pull He Xiang and the others over to see what the emperor, who was like a sheep in their hearts, was like behind the scenes.
But no matter how much he was in turmoil, Prince Ding finally said, “…Your Majesty, please give your orders.”
This time, even Wei Wen couldn’t help but begin to sympathise with him.
