After more than half a month of recuperation at Gaoxiang Prince's Mansion, Li Yao's injuries have basically recovered and the wounds have completely healed. Except for the occasional faint pain at the wound and paroxysmal coughing at night. Other than that, they are basically no different from ordinary people. The experience of being stabbed by a man in black robe seemed to have brought him a lot of fear. Originally, under the leadership of Zhao Yu, he was gradually able to go shopping or go to other places for fun. After this incident, he He closed himself up again, appearing very scared and not daring to communicate with anyone. Even the imperial doctor who changed his dressing was very resistant. In the end, the imperial doctor guided Zhao Yu to change his dressing every day. .
The third child, Li Hao, visited him every day, but after all, they had been estranged for so many years. Even though he knew in his heart that Li Hao was his brother, he could not treat him as he treated Li Hao. Such trust.
After Li Hao failed in his bid for the throne, he was imprisoned for a period of time. Later, Li Hao released him and participated in state affairs again. During those days, Li Hao had already thought very thoroughly. Among all the brothers, only Li Hao was the most outstanding in martial arts. This is why neither their father, Emperor Yan Ping, nor their brothers were able to tolerate it. The reason why he is no less powerful than Li Jun is that this contender for the throne is too strong, strong enough to make any supreme being afraid. It's not that Li Hao doesn't want the throne, it's just that it's really difficult for him to stand up again. Lu Tong's death was a huge blow to him. Over the years, it was he and Lu Tong who had conspired to stabilize their position and compete for the supreme Ninth Five-Year Plan position. Lu Tong's relationship with him was more like that of brothers. But in his opinion, such an important person died at the hands of his father, Emperor Yan Ping, just because of that throne. The word "throne" is really important, but no one knows what is most important in his heart.
Li Hao has been taught by Lu Yun since he was a child to do whatever it takes to get the throne, so Lu Yun asked him to witness the death of his concubine brothers at a young age. At that time, Li Hao felt very disgusted with the throne. After Lu Yun decided to commit suicide, Li Hao lost his mother's protection and immediately felt the same as the other brothers. The still immature Li Hao's only thought was to survive, and the only way to survive was to rely on With the support of his father, Emperor Yan Ping, he could only give up all his hobbies, give up his little meat dumpling brother that he once regarded as a spiritual haven, and wrap himself up to face the violent storm outside.
Supporting Li Jun's ascension was a last resort measure after weighing the pros and cons. At that time, he thought that if he had the opportunity, he would naturally not give up the throne, and would personally take care of the two at Shenglong Paddock. After his younger brother, he suddenly became timid and began to face the mess left by his mother head-on.
His two younger brothers, the proud sons of the royal family, were injured by their mother when they were young and could not live like normal people for the rest of their lives. And for so many years, he has been avoiding the mistakes his mother made. He kept convincing himself that the mistakes made by the previous generationWhy should he bear the consequences of his mistakes? So he had no problem escaping for so many years. During the days when I was taking care of my two younger brothers, I saw how vigilant they were when facing strangers every day, and how they lived their lives. Even now, the fourth child cannot speak a complete sentence or express his emotions. . How can humans be ruthless if they are not grass and trees? He finally regretted it, blamed himself, and felt guilty. The grudges of the previous generation have nothing to do with him. Wasn't what his mother did also for him? Since he has enjoyed everything his mother has given him with peace of mind, how can he put aside the relationship and say that all these bad things have nothing to do with him? Even though Thief Zhi knows that thieves have their ways, he must be so shameless to enjoy the wealth his mother brought him with peace of mind and at the same time comfort himself that all these bad things have nothing to do with him.
At that moment, he felt like he understood something, and he gradually looked away from the throne. Giving up the throne is no longer a forced choice for Li Hao, but a relief. For so many years, he had been limited to the competition for the throne, and it was time to step out and re-understand this world. Only then did he come up with the idea of taking his life for his life. He wanted to make up for his mother so that his own The conscience is not so hard.
After returning to his familiar home, Li Gao's mood was obviously better and he was more relaxed. Except for refusing to go out again, everything was back to the beginning. After Zhao Yu accompanied him for a few days, he strongly requested to go out to play. In response, Li Yao said: "Go early and come back early."
Zhao Yu was instantly discouraged. It was not impossible to play alone. But it is obviously more interesting for two people, especially since Li Yao is not familiar with outside affairs and cannot play games. Zhao Yu feels particularly accomplished when taking him out, and he is embarrassed to participate in some small games to avoid being caught by Li Hao. He laughed at his identity, but it was different with Li Yao. Li Yao had never played those tricks, and Zhao Yu could take him to experience it seriously as a teacher.
"Fifth brother, why don't you go with me? You are getting moldy and growing mushrooms every day in the house. You might as well go out with me to get some fresh air."
Li Yao was not moved by him at all, and just said with a face full of resistance: "The house is very good, you go back as soon as possible."
Zhao Yu took his pen and continued to persuade him. He persuaded: "Let's go together. You've played Cuju and you think it's pretty good. How about we go play that?"
Li Gao thought for a second. His little hobby of Cuju couldn't make up for it. He was afraid of outsiders, so he decisively refused: "No, it's not fun at all, I won't go."
Zhao Yu said angrily: "You said some time ago that Cuju is fun, next time You still want to play, it’s only been less than a month, and you don’t admit it?”
The tips of Li Gao’s ears turned red, as if he knew that lying was a bad behavior, but he really didn’t. If you are willing to leave the house, you have to ignore this detail.
After a while, Zhao Yu thought of another reason.He persuaded: "Do you remember Yu'er? That little guy who can't even speak at all. This is Li Jun's second child. The baby stays with you all day long. Let's go to the palace to see that little one too. ? And your little nephew, that little guy is starting to learn now. When I saw him last time, he still knew how to salute, and he looked like a little adult. He was really different from when he was a child. , they look the same every day. If you haven’t seen them for a long time, they may have forgotten you. Let’s go to the street to buy some snacks and bring them to them.”

Li Gao still resisted going out in his heart, so he said: "Ye'er is still young and can't eat snacks, and Ying'er doesn't like sweets. The food you bought didn't end up in your own body." Belly. ”
Who buys braised chicken as snacks for their children? Zhao Yu always pretends to bring snacks to the children, but all the candy, candy and red fruits he bought on the way ended up in his own stomach, and in the end he only had leftover roast chicken. , no wonder Li Jun always said that he was fat because he ate too much. Since being kidnapped, Zhao Yu has relaxed his demands on himself. Maybe he was like this when he was in Dangyang. Is it okay to just eat without getting fat?
Zhao Yu was quite thick-skinned, and he was not embarrassed at all. He took Li Gao's hand and walked out, saying: "Don't worry about these details, we are willing to give it a try to see those two That's great, little one. What gift do you want? Let's go, while it's still early, we can still have lunch. The royal chef in the palace is really good at cooking the pork slices with tofu. The taste is really outstanding. I have never tasted such delicious food when I was in Dangyang County."
That's right, Zhao Yu was the one who cooked the food. Of course, he was embarrassed to say so. , afraid of being laughed at by Li Han.
Li Yao was almost dragged out by him. Li Yao struggled to no avail, so he had no choice but to follow him out, thinking that since Zhao Yu was blocking him in front, he didn’t need to face him directly. Are those people okay?
As soon as the two of them stepped out of the threshold, they were stopped by the guards guarding the outside. Zhao Yu asked with some confusion: "What do you mean?"
The guards replied : "King Zhao calmed down. His subordinates and others are stationed at the palace under His Majesty's orders. His Majesty has an order: King Gaoxiang is not allowed to step outside the palace."
Zhao Yu frowned when he heard this. Isn't this house arrest? Why did Li Jun do this?
"Can't I leave the house?"
The man replied: "Your Majesty said: King Zhao can come in and out at will. If King Zhao has doubts about your Majesty's orders, , you can also go to the palace to meet His Majesty."
It seems that Li Wei did not want to put Li Wei under house arrest on a whim. Zhao Yu thought of the gossip he heard at the palace in Shenglong Paddock. Could it be that Li Gao really participated in the assassination of Li Jun? Zhao Yu didn't believe that he was wrong no matter what.From what he saw, Li Gao was clearly inexperienced. How could he participate in the assassination of Li Jun? And when they were in the palace, they were together every day, except...when something happened. Yes, although they were always together when they were in the palace, they happened to be separated every time something happened. Is this all a coincidence?
"Okay, then I will go into the palace to see him and see what medicine he is selling in his gourd."
Zhao Yu took two steps, then thought of something again, and turned around He said to Li Gao: "You go back first, and I'll go see your damn brother and see what he wants to do."
After Zhao Yu finished speaking through gritted teeth, he resolutely set foot on the road. The journey to the palace. Li Gao, who was left behind, was somewhat at a loss and returned to the palace with some melancholy. Although he didn't know much about the world, the way Li Han looked at him that day still made him shudder when he thought about it. He didn't know what happened, let alone how the brother who was closest to him could become what he is now. so.
