  Chapter 762 Chapter 762: Brother ends up brother and (Part 1) [Seeking a monthly ticket]

  Southeast of the mainland, Quguo, Qudian.

  The predecessor of the so-called "Qu State" was "Shen State".

  Shen's state subjugated the state's lord, who was lewd and violent, reused traitors, killed loyal people, and spoiled the common people...for a while, the people complained. Zhai Huan, the lord of the Qu Kingdom, hibernated for several years, killed the tyrant, and established a new country named "Qu". Although he was in office for a short time, he made great efforts to govern, cultivate literature and martial arts, invigorate the people and cultivate morality, invigorate the people's livelihood internally, and defend against neighbors and enemies externally, rejuvenating the sluggish country.

  Even though Zhai Huan is the one who killed the lord and got the position wrongly, why do the common people care so much? They only know that after the new king took office, the whole family's life has improved visibly with the naked eye, and the law and order are not as panic-stricken as before, and that's enough!

  The lord of the country also led his troops to destroy the neighbors who repeatedly harassed him!

   When the news came back, the whole country cheered.

  However, the situation in the southeast of the mainland is not something that a new country like Quguo can decide. Facing the violent Qu country, several nearby countries have a sense of crisis and jointly resist the pressure. The lord of the country, Zhai Huan, had to reorganize his army and horses, and went on another expedition.

   This dozen is more than half a year.

  The common people of Qu Country do not know the situation of the frontline war, but judging from Qu Country's hard resistance for more than half a year, Qu Country should not be destroyed.

   What should the common people in the territory do.

   After more than a month, the two sides ceased fighting and did not invade each other.

  The lord of the country, Zhai Huan, led his troops to return triumphantly.

   It’s just that even a three-year-old child knows that this false calm is only temporary. It won’t be long before a new country will be established and an old country will be destroyed. Countries change, regimes rise and fall, the only constant is the land under their feet.

   da da da da—

  A low-key team gallops past the official road.

  Headed by a young man wearing a loose crimson round-neck robe. This young man's eyebrows are exquisite and majestic, his nose is like a gall, and his lips are like rouge. The most outstanding feature of his whole face is his pair of affectionate peach blossom eyes that seem to be smiling but not smiling, and there is a smile on his lips.

   However, the young man pursed his lips tightly at this time.

   Those peach blossom eyes also turned reddish for some reason.

   "Drive—"

  The young man controls the reins with one hand.

   Run all the way into the capital of Qu Country.

  When entering the city, the young man raised his tiger talisman high with his free hand, and the city guards would recognize this person at a glance, and opened the door to let the young man pass without saying a word. However, there are also new recruits among the guards who are dissatisfied with the young man's move.

   muttered: "Master, who is this person?"

  Looking at the young people's clothes, although they are rich, they seem to be far behind the real rich people. Furthermore, this is still the capital, and the lord of the country is very strict with the children of the honorable family. Anyone who comes has to dismount and cross the city. I have never seen such a horse entering the city.

  The veteran slapped the recruit on the back of the head.

Lowering his voice, he exhorted: "Who do you think he is, who has no eyesight? That man is the most trusted and respected brother of the king. As soon as the king ascends the throne, he will be knighted. Brothers with the same father are not treated like this. When you meet such a big man, if you don't keep your eyes open, you probably won't know how you will die!"

  The recruits are frightened by the solemn warnings in the voices of the veterans.

  If Shen Tang were here, he would have recognized the young man just now, wasn’t it just her little friend who had ridden a pig with her—Zhai Le, Zhai Xiaofang? At this moment, Zhai Le has completely faded away from his youthful innocence, with a mature face and firm eyes.

  The reason why he rushed back to the capital in such a hurry was because of an imperial edict.

  【Xiaofang, return quickly—brother stay. 】

  When Zhai Le saw these six characters, his hands and feet almost went cold.

   Regardless, he led twenty or thirty personal guards back from the training ground. For a moment, countless thoughts that made him panic and frightened appeared in his mind. It's just that he didn't expect that when he just entered the city, he would see the maid beside his wife looking around at the intersection.

  The maid saw Zhai Le with sharp eyes: "Parents!"

   Zhai Le tightened the reins urgently to control the horse to stop.

  He said in a deep voice, "Why are you here?"

  The maid said: "Ma'am, let the slaves wait for you here!"

   "Go back and tell Madam first, and say that I still have things to do, and I can return home from the palace in less than an hour."

  The maid said nervously: "Parents, no!"

  Zhai Le frowned tightly, and asked: "Why?"

  Unexpectedly, this maid hesitated to speak.

   Zhai Le looked up at the sun in the sky, estimated the time in his heart, and said to the maid, "Go back to the house first."

  The letter that brother gave him, he felt a little weird.

  Although Zhai Le came back with a high profile, he didn't enter the palace first to meet the king, but went straight home. It's just that he didn't expect that he would see relatives who made him worry about him at his home. He stared in astonishment at the man who was teasing a big fat girl.

  In just a few years, men's hair has all turned gray.

  Only the face is still as young as before, without any trace of age.

   "Brother, why are you here?" Zhai Le strode into the main hall, followed by doubts, "That letter..."

  Zhai Huan sat on the mat, let the fat and white baby girl in his arms sit on his lap, and shook a rattle with a jade handle in the other hand, thumping, thumping, firmly attracting the baby's attention. She opened her mouth slightly, raised her chubby right hand and stuffed it into her bare mouth, and the crystal clear saliva flowed patter. Zhai Huan took the trouble to wipe the corners of her mouth with a silk handkerchief, smiling gently.

   This baby girl is Zhai Le's daughter who was born at the end of last year.

  She is strong and strong, and she is very blessed at first glance.

   Zhai Huan likes this niece very much. Every time he sees her, he hugs and teases her. When he heard Zhai Le's voice, he raised his head and put down the rattle: "A Le, come and hug your fat daughter...it's only five months old..."

  Zhai Le's daughter recognized people at a very young age.

  Specially recognize people with good-looking faces.

   Seeing Zhai Le reach out his hand, he opened his mouth with a smile, revealing his bare pink gums, leaning against Zhai Le's arms, and bluntly smeared his saliva on his shoulders. Zhai Le turned upside down, and said with emotion: "The second girl is indeed a bit heavy."

  He sat down first, and mentioned the question just now.

   "Brother, why did you suddenly send such a secret letter?"

   Saying that, Zhai Le's expression darkened.

   "Could it be that the letter is fake?"

  Who knows, Zhai Huan said with a smile: "Of course the letter is true, but it's not as urgent as you think."

  Zhai Le breathed a sigh of relief: "It was a false alarm! I thought it was brother's old injury recurring, and it made me flustered."

  Zhai Huan said: "The old injury has indeed recurred."

  Zhai Le: "..."

   "I asked you to come back just in case. If the brothers and sisters hadn't secretly entered the palace to seek an audience, I'm afraid that my brother would still be concealed."

  For a while, Zhai Le's mind was in a mess.

   "Who dares to hide it from brother?"

Zhai Huan laughed and said, "Power really corrodes people's hearts. Ale, you also know that since your sister-in-law passed away, my brother has abused the way of literati, causing his health to go from bad to worse... How much life has been spent in these years? Brother, I can’t even remember clearly. A while ago, I caught a cold and fell ill for several days, and then someone...hehe, kept this news from you and me."

  The daughter in Zhai Le's arms secretly grabbed his sleeve, and her little fingers clasped the fleshy back of his hand. The pain was not as painful as a mosquito bite. He naturally didn't feel it, and his whole mind was blown away by Zhai Huan's words. A pair of peach blossom eyes are completely at a loss.

   "Yes, who is it?"

  Why did he hide the news that his elder brother was sick?

Zhai Huan smiled wryly: "Looking at the whole court, who else would dare to do this? Of course it is your good cousin, my good brothers. Since your sister-in-law left, the post has been vacant, and there are no concubines in the inner court...Ah Le, don't you understand? Since my brother has no heirs, and I have sworn that there will be no more two, if I have any problems...I can only choose to have a brother, or adopt a nephew."

  Zhai Huan is not the only son, he has concubine brothers, he has a direct brother, and several concubine sisters, but he can't keep him from being close to them. Compared with these younger brothers, Zhai Le is more like his mother and brother. Zhai Huan also felt strange, and could only blame it on fate.

  The court has already agreed that Zhai Huan is short-lived.

   In other words, there are not many candidates for Zhai Huan to choose from.

  These candidates tacitly agreed to regard Zhai Le as the enemy.

Zhai Le was dumbfounded when he heard this, and then he laughed again: "Cousin, don't they... suspect that brother will stand me up? Think about it with your toes, and you know it won't work. Madam hurt her body to give birth to Er Ya, even Xinglin Shengshou said It will be difficult for her to bear children in the future, even if she can, she will have to take care of her for five or six years..."

  Zhai Le, he only has two fat girls.

  After the fall of the State of Shen, in order to help his elder brother stabilize the situation in the new dynasty, he married the third wife of the Zhao family. Although Zhai Le didn't have much affection for this wife before marriage, after getting along with her after marriage, he got to know her more deeply, and her affection became much stronger.

   With Zhai Huan as a role model, Zhai Le also wants to keep someone alone. Given that he clearly cannot take concubines and only has two daughters under his knees, he obviously has no threat to those cousins. Why are they so guarded against him? Obviously, they were very harmonious before.

  Zhai's brothers of the same generation help each other and are unanimous to the outside world.

  In just a few years, why has it changed so much?

  Unexpectedly, Zhai Huan's words made Zhai Le completely dumbfounded: "It's not a suspicion, I really like you as a brother."

   Zhai Le, whose hands are full of saliva from a big girl: "..."

   His mind was buzzing, and his brain almost went on strike.

  Zhai Huan said firmly: "Choose you for my brother!"

  Zhai Le said awkwardly: "But, this is not appropriate..."

  Zhai Huan said: "Do a good job for the brotherhood. You just need to sit in that position and guard this side of the water and soil. As for them... they are full of power and profit, they are not worthy!"

  Zhai Le frowned, his peach blossom eyes were full of hesitation.

  He doesn't like the role of being the helmsman. He has always positioned himself as his brother's right-hand man, helping him fight in all directions and protecting what he values. Elder brother is the pinnacle in his heart, he doesn't have to think when he is there.

Zhai Le still declined: "Brother is in the prime of life, if you are not satisfied with your cousins, you can just adopt a good seedling from their knees and cultivate them well. There should be no wars in the past few years. After the cultivation is complete, I will assist brother Assist him as well!"

  Zhai Huan sighed and stroked his eldest niece's prickly short hair.

  When this child was born, his hair was so lush that he didn’t look like a newborn. After a hundred days of hair removal, only a short piece grew out. He looked like a heroic little boy. He said with regret: "It would be great if it was a man..."

  If it is a man, there will be no objection to directly establishing the crown prince.

  Zhai Le poked his daughter's soft cheek: "If he was a man, he might be able to practice protecting his wife and eldest sister..."

  Women and children without the ability to protect themselves are still too dangerous. Zhai Le likes to go to the battlefield, and generals who like to go to the battlefield will not live long. He didn't even know if he would live to see his daughter grow up.

   Then, he slapped his elder brother: "You are a father for the second time, and you still don't understand that children can't move their cheeks? Er Ya is more drooling than Da Ya, it must be your fault."

   Zhai Le pursed his lips in grievance, and touched the back of his hand.

   Seeing brother looking at his big fat daughter, he mistakenly thought that the other party wanted to hug the child again, so he had the cheek to offer his daughter.

   But Zhai Huan didn't intend to take over.

  Just said: "Ale, you really don't plan to take a concubine?"

  Zhai Le said in a low voice: "Don't do to others what you don't want yourself to do to yourself. Moreover, when I married my wife back then, I used her natal family's influence to promise her a couple. How can I break my promise now because of women?"

  Zhai Huan said: "If that's the case, there's no other way."

   Zhai Le thought that he had completely given up the idea of ​​establishing himself.

   "It's destiny, my little brother is really not that material."

  Zhai Huan fiddled with the little niece's little hand, and suddenly said: "The big girl has no bones, but the second girl's bones are surprisingly good, her meridians are ethereal, and she is a good seedling for cultivation..."

   Zhai Le lowered his eyebrows and said, "No matter how talented you are, but..."

  Looking into his daughter's pure eyes, he couldn't say anything hurtful, even if she didn't understand anything.

   "Before, I made a divination for Erya for brother."

   Zhai Le smiled and said, "How about the hexagram?"

  Zhai Huan raised his head and looked at his younger brother, word by word, gentle and firm: "A tiger father has no dog daughter, she can inherit your mantle."

  Zhai Le was dumbfounded after hearing this: "Inherit my mantle?"

Zhai Huan's words startled him: "Wenxin scholars of any level can be promoted to the first rank if they get the national seal, although this level is useless. Warriors who are brave and brave can also get the title of princes if they get the national seal." Dao... What about ordinary people? What about women with roots? I have read countless records of previous dynasties for my brother, and no one has tried it, but there must be an answer to this question..."

  The two brothers looked at the baby girl who was at a loss.

   At this time, the servant beside Zhai Huan whispered outside to remind the two brothers that it was getting late and it was time for Zhai Huan to return to the inner court.

Zhai Le looked at him, and he said calmly: "The inner court has some eyes and ears, they didn't want to scare the snakes, so they didn't pull them out. If it can be done without bloodshed, I don't want to splash blood on the royal court again. Seeing you this time, I asked my brothers and sisters to help, and ran away secretly from."

   Zhai Le was anxious: "Brother!"

  Zhai Huan waved his hand: "As long as they are not terminally ill, they dare not make big moves. After all—I will really kill them."

  Even if he didn't want to go this far.

  He asked Zhai Le to stay in the capital for a while, not to go anywhere, and after a few simple instructions, he changed his disguise and returned quietly.

   Zhai Le is holding her daughter in a daze.

  The panic and anxiety that had been suppressed resurfaced again.

   I don’t know when, Madam came to him, put a coat on him, and said softly: "Uncle, he vomited blood earlier."

   Zhai Le shuddered suddenly: "Hematemesis?"

  Madam Zhao said: "I vaguely saw a basin of blood."

  Thinking about the relationship between her husband and the uncle of the child, there are some things that she can't say, the king is afraid that... he won't be able to survive this month.

  Zhai Le was at home late at night on the third day, and entered the palace under a secret order. He looked at the palace in the dark night that looked like a monster with an open mouth, and his heart dropped to freezing point. There was a voice in my heart resisting, but my body was led by my brother's confidant, and stepped into the palace gate.

   (σ)σ:*☆

   Next, one quack, one quack.

   PS: The names of these brothers are really easy to confuse.
