Just after the new year, according to the old routine, Emperor Hongwen led the emperor's relatives, civil and military officials out of the city to offer sacrifices.

On the one hand, in order to comfort his ancestors, he once again protected the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains of this dynasty so that the people could live a good life in peace and contentment.

On the other hand, it is also for prayer.

Throughout last year, a lot of things actually happened. After all, the weather conditions in different parts of the world are different.

Droughts and floods, coupled with man-made disasters, have caused many people to suffer.

His majesty the emperor, with his dragon power, prayed to the ancestors and the gods, and prayed that the lives of the people would be more healthy in the coming year.

His Majesty the Emperor really prayed to God sincerely, because he knelt down on both knees, not to mention, and knelt for an entire hour.

You must know that Emperor Hongwen was already at an age when he knew his destiny, and his body bones were not as strong as he looked.

So when he knelt down like this, the royal family and all civil and military officials were very worried, and because His Majesty's sincerity and what he wanted was for the people of the world.

It's not easy to dissuade them, so they can only kneel together.

As a result, this time, the different thoughts of several princes were tested.

In addition to some disputes in the harem due to political instability in the first few years of his ascension to the throne, and the death of a prince and princess, the children of Emperor Hongwen survived and grew up smoothly.

Now there are six princes in total, the eldest prince has passed the weak crown and the youngest six prince has just turned three years old.

They were fine for the past few years, but because they followed His Majesty out of the city to offer sacrifices, two princes had a fever on the night they returned.

Immediately following the next day, the oldest eldest prince also had health problems.

Emperor Hongwen himself was not from an orthodox background and went through a lot of fighting before ascending to the throne, and then he didn't know what was in his mind. He didn't register as a crown prince these years.

The eldest prince was not actually the first child of Emperor Hongwen, but he was the eldest among the princes who grew up.

Moreover, he is the empress's son, and the eldest prince has learned martial arts and martial arts from Emperor Hongwen since he was a child. He is recognized by everyone as the best candidate for the heir apparent.

Even he had a problem with his body. Several imperial doctors worked together for several days and nights before he was able to diagnose and treat him. After that, he needed to recuperate for a long time, and his health might not return to the previous level.

This made Emperor Hongwen very shocked and very angry. He never knew that his family was in such chaos and that someone was so disregarding brotherhood for that position.

Of course, he has completely forgotten now that there was a more tragic struggle between him and his brothers for that position.

His most important eldest prince was brutally murdered, his beloved sixth prince was still sick after several days, and the whole palace was filled with smoky atmosphere.

The heartbroken Emperor Hongwen apparently made a fool of himself and actually asked Jingrui, who was considered a close relative of the royal family, to secretly investigate the matter. He also secretly assigned Li Xiuping, his most promising future prime minister, to assist.

Of course, Li Xiuping only told so much, even if it is not convenient to reveal some specific details of the harmonious relationship between him and Fang Qingqing.

More importantly, Li Xiuping's purpose in becoming an official was to revitalize his family and allow the old Li family to change its family structure, and also to allow his father, mother, wife, children, brothers and sister-in-law to live a good life.

He is not at all interested in the fights between his brothers for the throne, especially this time, once again he stepped into the dead end.

I am deeply aware that it is good to be alive;

Therefore, it is extremely gratifying to be able to see his wife when he opens his eyes.

Regardless of other things, Li Xiuping clasped Fang Qingqing's hands tightly with one hand, and said seriously: "Qingqing, that's great, you've always been by my side."

Fang Qingqing just smiled lightly, and replied: "Diandian, I, and Mingzhu, we are a family and will always be together."

"En." Li Xiuping nodded emphatically.

The two looked at each other silently.

At this time, silence is better than sound, and in the meeting of the eyes of the two of them, all unfinished meanings have been expressed.

Qin Zhenjie, who was about to come in to see the situation, suddenly stopped. He was practicing walking diligently.

So when his grandfather was having a secret conversation with King Jingjun who had already woken up, Qin Zhenjie deliberately walked to the backyard, wanting to see Lord Li's injuries.

It turned out that this couple still wanted to show their affection at this moment of life and death, it was really...

Tooth acid!

It made him, an older man, start to feel his heart throbbing, thinking about whether he could promise his mother to see him after he returned home after recovering his body?
The rare single older male youth also had the self-consciousness of not being a light bulb, so he simply didn't knock on the door and went in to disturb him, but just took a look from a distance to confirm that Mr. Li was in good health, and then left.

It's better to go and see the prince of the county. I don't know what the grandfather and the prince of the county are going to discuss. This is what he should really care about at present.

Entering the wing where Jingrui lives on the other side, the first thing he sees is Jingrui who is half leaning on the couch, and his grandfather who sits beside him with a serious look and expressionless expression.

Before Qin Zhenjie came in, he had maintained this appearance for a long time. Jingrui and General Qin knew some things well about each other.

But it is not so easy to speak out clearly.

Do you want to bluntly say that because of today's inaction or deliberate indulgence before today, it has cultivated the wolfish ambitions of several princes?
Even General Qin knew that perhaps the original intention of the Holy Sage was just to check and balance, so even though there were repeated letters from ministers in the court directly admonishing the crown prince.

Emperor Hongwen kept silent all the time, allowing the eldest prince to keep his duty conscientiously, and watched helplessly as the younger brothers grew up and became more ambitious.

Up to now, there is no such thing as family affection in the royal family, which makes father and son not like father and son, and brothers are like enemies.

In fact, His Majesty the Emperor himself has to bear a great deal of responsibility for the current situation.

It's just that it's not convenient for Old General Qin and Jing Rui to say such words.

As a result, in the current room, this pair of Wangnian friends can only comprehend each other and cannot be described in words.

As for Old General Qin and Jing Rui himself, what was even more heartbreaking was that the county mansion became a thorn in the side of some people even though they were only helping His Majesty the emperor?

Jing Rui feels a lot of pain in his heart, but it's just not convenient to express it in this place and this scene.

Qin Zhenjie was heartbroken. After entering the room, he said to Jingrui carelessly: "Just wake up, Lord. Your body will definitely recover."

Old General Qin glared at him, but he didn't say any reprimands. Jing Rui knew that his grandson was innocent.

So he simply changed the subject: "Zhenjie, have you gone to see if Mr. Li is in good health?"

Jingrui was also very concerned about this issue. After all, Li Xiuping was seriously injured trying to save him.
