King Ninghe had been welcomed to the entrance of the main courtyard by his servants. As soon as the two brothers met at the entrance of the main courtyard, the King of Shu raised his eyebrows slightly.
His younger brother looks much thinner than the last time we saw him, and he looks a little out of shape!
But if you look closely, you will see that although you are a little thin and out of shape, and your face is a little pale and haggard, your mental state is better than last time, and your expression seems to have recovered somewhat. Your eyes are no longer dull, but have some expression. .
"Seventh brother." King Shu stepped forward and took King Ninghe's hand, looked at it up and down, and looked a little distressed: "I have lost weight."
"Fifth brother." King Ninghe called him instead of saluting King Shu.
The fifth brother in front of me is nearly 30 years old, but he has slender eyebrows, eyes like stars, elegant and handsome, and a bookish look on his face. He can't help but secretly sigh, the King of Shu has always been a suave and well-deserved reputation.
The two brothers held hands and looked at each other. For a moment, the King of Shu probably couldn't stand the nausea. He coughed and said, "This is not the place to talk. Seventh brother, follow me to the flower hall to talk."
The two kings walked to the flower hall one after another. The guests and hosts took their seats. The servants served tea and left. The two brothers were the only ones in the flower hall. King Ninghe was thinking about something and secretly glanced at King Shu. King Shu also flashed his eyes. With just one pair of eyes, they both understood each other.
"I wonder why King Ninghe came here this time?" King Shu asked with a dull smile.
King Ninghe put his fist into his mouth and coughed twice, his voice a little hoarse: "I heard about the matter of the third brother and the fifth brother. I have a few words to say to my brother, so I visited him rashly. I hope not to disturb my brother. .”
"Oh? You mean, about the folding?" King Shu raised his eyebrows.
King Ning He: "Brother, why should I hide it from my younger brother? I'm already like this...ahem..."
He looked at a point not far away and said, "Fifth brother, taking chestnuts from the fire may not be a good thing."
The King of Shu said "Oh" but said nothing more.
King Ninghe smiled miserably and continued: "My mother and concubine were sentenced to death, and my life experience is also suspected. This matter is no different from other things. I will never be able to turn over for the rest of my life. To be honest, my brother, even if I had some thoughts before, Now it’s all gone.”
King Ninghe said bleakly, and his face became even more bleak. King Shu was still very polite at first, with a faint smile, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but feel moved.
Indeed, there are still ways to recover if you fall down in political affairs, or even lose a battle and lose a county. However, King Ninghe will have a hard time getting over with the crime of "concubine Wei seems to have done something wrong", but he does not have to Too defensive - he is still a county king after all!
Just thinking about it, King Ninghe was already red-eyed: "It's okay that I was demoted, but my mother and concubine died so unclearly,
Every time I think about it, I toss and turn, unable to sleep at night..."
"Why did I lose inexplicably? I kept thinking and thinking, but I couldn't figure it out."
Hearing this, King Shu's expression changed.
In fact, he also had this doubt. Now King Ninghe, he used to be King Lu. Although King Lu was younger than him and King Qi and started late, his strength was much weaker. But no matter how weak he was and how late he started, could he? Can't compare to the acting king who was only recognized for two or three years?
In fact, the father and the prince have little interest, and each one is very valuable. It does not make sense to suddenly be completely defeated!
King Ninghe added: "I just thought that the fifth brother has always been tolerant and would never harm me. The third brother does not have this ability. After thinking about it, did I lose because of the tricks used by the king?"
"But I failed completely, so I can't find any clues, let alone when did I fall into the trap?"
"Fifth brother, now that Dai Wang's errand has been taken away, it is an opportunity. But if you keep an eye on Dai Wang, you will be able to see whether he really has such terrible means."
The King of Shu nodded and said slowly: "What if he didn't use any means?"
When King Lu was defeated before, it really fulfilled that sentence: the building collapsed in an instant.
Afterwards, the King of Qi and the King of Shu also traced the clues, but neither found out that there was something about King Dai in it. They didn't find out that there was something about King Dai in it at that time, so they must be able to find out now? What if this matter really wasn’t a move on behalf of the king?
King Ninghe smiled bitterly and bowed his hands to King Shu seriously: "Fifth brother, I have withdrawn, please tell the truth to me."
"Brothers in the royal family are fighting over each other. If they don't advance, they will retreat. Even though the acting king is not our brother, but his nephew, the principle is the same."
"The King of Qi has got the errand that King Dai has taken away. If King Dai has the means, he will confront King Qi. You and I can tell at a glance. If the King of Dai really has no means, then he can only give in, and if King Dai has It will naturally be beneficial to the two brothers if we give in."
The King of Shu nodded again and asked: "If King Dai had not taken action, would King Qi have suffered a loss?"
This kind of thing is not impossible. Hasn't it been like this several times before?
Anyone who messes up his position will be directly unlucky, but King Dai himself has always been innocent, making it difficult for people to grasp anything. What if it is the same this time?
To be honest, the King of Shu was sometimes jealous of King Dai's good luck.
"That would be even more terrifying." King Ning He twitched his lips at this moment, his pale face and dark eyes looked directly at King Shu: "This shows that he has one thing: heaven and destiny!"
"Destiny?" King Shu typed these two words carefully and felt a chill all over his body.
King Ninghe saw that his face turned pale, but he smiled instead: "Fifth brother, don't be afraid. No matter what happens in the future, my father is the emperor now - the one who can change destiny must be my father!"
At this time, King Shu also came to his senses.
That's right, even if the king has destiny, what should he be afraid of? The acting king has a destiny. If anyone knows this, it will be the biggest leverage against the acting king!
After all, the acting king has destiny, where should he leave his father? As long as the father understands this, knowing this, the king will not be able to live in vain!
The King of Shu knew exactly how the prince died.
So what if he had a destiny? The prince back then was also said to have a destiny, so wasn’t he dead?
After sorting out these things quickly, King Shu immediately woke up. When he looked at King Ninghe again, his eyes were softer than before.
No matter why you came to see me, this reminder really helped a lot!
When he was about to speak, he saw King Ning He suddenly burst into tears, with a sad expression on his face, and said with choked sobs: "Fifth Brother, I have been treated like this by my father, and I will never dare to fight for anything. Today, I am giving you advice, Fifth Brother, just for your sake." My mother-in-law who died unjustly wants justice. If the fifth brother can help the younger brother get this justice, from now on the younger brother will only follow the lead of the fifth brother!"
After saying that, he left his seat and bowed his head.
The King of Shu hurriedly left his seat, supported him with both hands, and said with slightly red eyes, "Good brother, if that day comes in the future, I will never let you down, brother!"
"Not only will I give justice to your mother and concubine, but I will also restore you to the title of prince!"
King Ninghe choked with sobs and called out: "Fifth brother!"
The two brothers talked for a while with tears. King Ninghe couldn't bear to stay in the Shu palace longer, so he wiped his tears, calmed down for a while, and then left.
The King of Shu personally sent King Ning He out of the palace this time. When he saw King Ning He getting on the departing ox cart, he turned around and returned to the main courtyard.
He just entered the flower hall, and before sitting down, he asked the person who followed him in: "Have you found out clearly? Where is the King Dai now?"
"Back to the king, I have found out clearly that the king has left the palace and entered the palace."
"At this hour, you are still entering the palace?" King Shu couldn't help but smile: "On behalf of the king, are you also anxious?"
