When the three kings opened their palaces, the people were listening to the excitement, and the three princes were in different moods.

Concubine Wu’s Yanxi Palace.

The palace maids and eunuchs who were serving retreated outside. Concubine Wu looked at the door and smiled at the second prince Rui and said, "Did you bring the map? Look at what your mansion looks like."

King Rui came prepared and took out the map of King Rui's mansion from his sleeve and spread it on the low table of the rosewood in the middle of the Arhat bed. He bent down and stood beside his mother, moving his fingers along the map, and whispered to each house: "... My son planned to divert water to build a lotus pond here, build a pavilion in the pond, and escape the summer heat..."

Concubine Wu smiled and nodded. His son was granted the title of king and opened the mansion. The next step was to go to court to listen to the government. The official position was not allowed. After hearing his son's imagination of the renovation of his palace, Concubine Wu asked in a chat: "Where is your eldest brother, your third brother's mansion?"

King Rui looked at his mother, then looked at the map of the palace, pointed to the main courtyard of the palace and whispered: "Mom, let's compare this circle to the imperial city. The outer circle is the inner city. My son's mansion is on the southwest side and the eldest brother's southeast side, which is about the distance from the palace. Third brother's..." King Rui pointed his finger down and knocked on the table and said: "The third brother's mansion is in the outer city, next to the Duke of Wei's mansion."

The center of the capital is the imperial city, the emperor's residence. The outside of the imperial city is the inner city, which is where the princess's mansion is located, and further out is the outer city. The dignitaries and nobles are distributed around the inner city. The more they go, the lower the status of the people, or the poorer they are. In fact, the Guo family of the Duke of Wei's Mansion is the best part of the outer city. Compared with the careful comparison, the Shou Mansion is a larger circle than the Chu Mansion and the Rui Mansion, and it is much spacious. However, the brothers are all in the inner city, so he arranged it in the outer city, which shows how Emperor Xuande disliked his third son.

Concubine Wu gloated: "I think when Concubine Xian was alive, her father and queen were the most favored. Now she is not alone in the world."

If you want to blame, you will blame the third prince for his bad life. The royal family made a stuttering. This is a mistake. God sent heaven to punish this family. Emperor Xuande values ​​reputation the most and suddenly gave birth to a stuttering son, an indelible stain. Not to mention that Concubine Xian died, even if Concubine Xian was alive, Emperor Xuande would never give the third prince more favor.

King Rui sighed: "This bowl of tea is cold, and the other bowl is still hot."

He never took his third brother seriously. What made him restless day and night was the elder brother above. The coldest father was, the younger brother was as pampered as the crown prince. Judging from his father's behavior, he had already trained his elder brother as the crown prince.

Concubine Wu looked at her son and chuckled softly: "You think it's hot, and some people are more flirting than you. Wait, and there will be a fun sooner or later." After that, she raised her chin meaningfully in the direction where Empress Li's central palace was. At the age of eighteen, she was named the queen as soon as she gave birth to a prince, and her ambitions would be strong under her favor.

King Rui nodded and was convinced: "Son understand."

The imperial concubine and his son were heartbroken. After the eldest prince, King Chu, saw the map of his palace, he realized that he thought of his younger brother and asked Eunuch Kang beside him: "Where is the Shou Palace?"

Eunuch Kang shrank his neck and lowered his head and said, "The Emperor has given the former prime minister Qi's mansion to Prince Shou."

The King of Chu tilted his head and thought for a while, but he had no impression: "Where is Qi's Mansion?"

Eunuch Kang couldn't hide it anymore and said with a breath: "Look next to Duke Wei's Mansion."

When the King of Chu heard this, he slapped the table and walked out with a calm face. Eunuch Kang's heart was almost out of his way. He ran a few steps and stopped the King of Chu, and said with a bitter face: "Prince, what are you doing?"

The King of Chu's face turned pale and his voice was thunderous: "I want to go to find my father. The inner city is so big, why should I arrange for my third brother to live in the outer city?"

He was honest and open-minded. As long as he felt that he was right, he never cared about whether he was heard. Eunuch Kang was scared to death and raised his hand high to block the King of Chu, making a gesture of covering his mouth: "Prince, stop talking quickly. The emperor must have his intention in making such arrangements. Prince Shou has no objection, you..."

"Get out!" The King of Chu was furious and threw the thin Eunuch Kang several steps away. How could the third brother have no objection? He was used to being neglected by his father and couldn't say anything, so he kept giving him something. It was because the third brother didn't fight that his elder brother wanted to fight for him. His intention was decided, and the King of Chu rushed straight to Chongzheng Palace despite Eunuch Kang's desperate dissuasion.

Emperor Xuande was reviewing the memorials. When he heard that his eldest son was coming, he didn't raise his head and asked someone to come in.

"Father, my son has something unknown." The King of Chu walked to the imperial court and spoke in a very stern tone.

Emperor Xuande guessed seven points as soon as he heard this. He looked up at his son's resentful face, and the other three points were implemented. He lowered his head again, and while reviewing the memorials, he said lightly: "Say."

The King of Chu said directly: "Father, my second brother's mansions are both in the inner city, why did the third brother go outside?"

Emperor Xuande said calmly: "You are going to court, and it is convenient to live nearby. The third brother has no responsibilities. The place there is big, so he lives comfortably."

Just a cover, the King of Chu was sad: "You can't arrange errands for your third brother? Your third brother is smart..."

Emperor Xuande finally looked up and his eyes became cold: "What can he do? He doesn't want to say more than a word. What can he do for me? How can he let the country and the country be allowed to play?"

The King of Chu wanted to fight for his brothers again. Emperor Xuande was exhausted and stared at him and scolded, "Go out, next time, I will punish you."

The King of Chu remained motionless, and Emperor Xuande's eunuch Wang En came over in time and pulled the person away. The silence in the hall returned to rest. Emperor Xuande looked at the door, his frowning brows quickly stretched out, and did not take the disrespect of his eldest son to heart. The boss valued feelings and knew that he cared about his younger brother, but it was the point he admired the most.

The King of Chu was very dissatisfied with his father's partiality, but he had no choice but to stand outside Chongzheng Hall and felt humiliated for a while. Then he went to Jingping Palace to see his younger brother. His steps were as fast as entering his bedroom. Before the news was made by Eunuch Fu, he pushed open the door of the study.

Zhao Heng had heard the movement, but stood at the desk without moving, and nodded to his brother: "Brother."

The King of Chu nodded and walked up to him. He saw a piece of rice paper covering half a table in front of his third brother, and a house was drawn in the middle. He first saw the prototype. Knowing that the third brother had already started to arrange the mansion located in the outer city, the King of Chu felt very uncomfortable. In impulse, he grabbed Zhao Henggang's painting with his big hand and rubbed it.

Zhao Heng:...

"I'm so angry!" King Chu sat on the chair diagonally opposite, slapped the table with his big hand, "Third brother, wait, I can't persuade my father, wait for the uncle..."

"Brother!" Zhao Heng's expression suddenly changed, and he interrupted his brother's impulsive words sternly.

The King of Chu was still open, and he met his brother's warning eyes. He pursed his lips and slapped the table again.

Zhao Heng put away his erotic semen and wanted to remind his brother all his words, but he couldn't say anything. He could only slowly say: "Listen to your father and don't say anything nonsense."

It is not about the mansion, but the throne. His elder brother has excellent martial arts skills, but he has a straightforward and irritable temper. His father favors his elder brother and can tolerate ordinary confrontations. Only the throne problem is the father's rebellion, and no one can touch it.

The King of Chu took a deep breath, rubbed his head, and decided not to think about it. His eyes fell on the paper ball that he threw to the distance. The King of Chu accepted his fate and sighed, walked over and picked up the paper ball, spread it again, stared at the drawing paper with both hands for a while, and then pointed to a piece circled out of the west side of the mansion and asked: "Third brother, what are you writing here?"

It turned out that there were two words that he had broken and could not see clearly.

Zhao Heng looked at the position and said, "Cherry."

The King of Chu looked at him strangely, glanced at other small characters one by one, and saw the names of fruit trees such as "grape", "plum tree", "pomegranate", "persimmon tree". After looking around, the King of Chu's heart became even more sad. Father, Father, look at the good things you did, the third brother was so heartbroken that he gave up on himself.

After being sad, he was angry. The King of Chu pulled this picture apart, and Brother Yan taught his younger brother a lesson: "Godly prince, what do you want to buy if you want to eat? It's a joke to grow these in the mansion. Your palace is big, I think this is how it is. The land just now was changed to a racecourse, so our brothers have to run a few laps."

Zhao Heng was silent.

The King of Chu was intrigued and put out another rice paper to help his younger brother figure out how to build a mansion. Zhao Heng never spoke, just waiting for his brother to leave, and he drew another picture according to his wishes. The King of Chu drew a full picture, and after drawing it, the depression in his chest dissipated most of the time. Seeing that the sky was dark, he simply stayed with his younger brother for food.

During the meal, the brothers were drinking with each other, Zhao Heng drank a short drink, and the King of Chu drank a few bowls of wine. The King of Chu thought of a good way to make his younger brother happy: "March 3rd Sunday, the eldest brother will take you out of the palace. I tell you that there were all girls in the suburbs that day, each one was better than the other. The eldest brother took you to see the world, don't be stuck in the palace all day."

Zhao Heng didn't take it seriously. My elder brother forgot his nature. He may forget what he said today if he had a nap at night.

But this time, the King of Chu did not forget. On the evening of the second day of the March 2nd, he came to see his younger brother for a drink. Before leaving, he reminded his younger brother: "Go out tomorrow morning, don't sleep in."

Zhao Heng was slightly surprised and nodded, "The spring scenery is good, since the eldest brother is willing, he will accompany him for a while."

Duke Wei’s Mansion.

The weather was getting warmer. After dinner at dusk, Song Jianing and his three sisters went for a walk in the garden to digest food. They circled around the lake shore for a short halfway point and met Guo Xiao and twins. The brother and sister gathered together. Guo Fu smiled and said, "I'm chattering, have you discussed where to go for a trip tomorrow?"

The third girl Yun Fang curled her lips: "You don't have to worry about wherever you go." The two brothers like to tease people, and she is the least willing to travel with her brother.

Guo Fu sneered: "Who wants to care about you? We want to protect An An. I heard that at this time, we take photos of the most flowers, and we will only pick up the silly girls who are stupid..."

Yun Fang laughed loudly and pointed at Song Jianing and said, "Second brother said you are stupid!"

Song Jianing glared at Guo Fu: "The second brother is stupid."

"Oh, are you so brave?" Guo Fu rushed over to grab her. Song Jianing ran away quickly, but unfortunately he was not as fast as Guo Fu, and was scratched and tickled. Song Jianing blushed and panted. While hiding, he called for help. Tingfang and Lanfang were going to save her sister, but was stopped by Guo Shu and could not support her.

Song Jianing was really uncomfortable. Her good sisters couldn't help her. Yun Fang just smiled and watched the fun. Song Jianing's eyes turned and fell on Guo Xiao. The twins were most afraid of him, but...

Song Jianing didn't want to beg Guo Xiao, and she felt itchy. She grabbed Guo Fu's arm in anger, lowered her head and bit her.

"Enough."

Just before Song Jianing's mouth was about to touch Guo Fu's wrist, Guo Xiao suddenly shouted. Guo Fu was afraid of his brother's majesty and instinctively stopped his hand. He retracted too quickly. When the back of his hand was raised, he hit Song Jianing's nose without bias. Song Jianing's tears suddenly came out. He covered his nose and was so painful that he couldn't speak.

Before Guo Fu could react, someone rushed to his side and grabbed Song Jianing's hand covering his nose.

Song Jianing's eyes were exposed, his nose was red, his red lips were opened, and he inhaled continuously.

Guo Xiao looked at it and recalled that his step-sister would rather be bullied by his cousin than ask for help. He let go of her hand and sneered: "It's time."

Song Jianing was stunned, and the next moment, tears flowed even harder.

Why is there such an annoying person? Did she dig his ancestral grave in her previous life, so she was bullied by him in her previous life and met him again in this life?

She was so sad and angry that Guo Fu saw his brother looking at him, his eyes colder than Hanbing in the twelfth lunar month, so she turned around and ran away in fear.

Then the next day, the twins failed to show up. The person who accompanied Song Jianing's four sisters was replaced by Guo Xiao.
