Notes of Lanxi Crossing

Chapter 37 Memories: Ambition

He couldn't help wondering, could this be the real appearance of his elder brother, who was ambitious and unwilling to let others down.

No, maybe... It is true that he is usually leisurely and open-minded, and it is true that he is showing his sharpness now.

In the past, the elder brother just suppressed this unknown side forcibly due to the situation, even he never noticed it.

Zhan Heng's eyes are a bit complicated. Although he is a prince, his biological mother is only the daughter of a small official. Even if he is still alive, his situation will never be better than it is now.

From a long time ago, he knew that compared with Zhan Kun, he was just a down and out prince in the eyes of others.

Whether it is a person or a thing, what does not belong to him will never belong to him.

He originally thought that Brother Huang had no intention of doing this, but he didn't expect that he hid it too deeply and well, until today.

"Then what are you going to do?"

"Aheng, help me!"

Zhan Kun stared at this younger brother who had followed him since childhood and never refused any of his requests. He was sure that Zhan Heng would definitely help him!

Zhan Kun's guess was right. Zhan Heng looked at this slightly unfamiliar elder brother, raised his head and drank all the remaining wine in the jar, wiped off the wine stains on his face with his cuff, and gritted his teeth.

"……How to help?"

Zhan Kun laughed, he knew that he would agree.

He is the son of Concubine De, his uncle is the Marquis of Yichang, and the Yue family is the prime minister. He only needs a general to help him.

"Aheng, the war in the border, the chaos in the north, and the chaos in the north. My heart of Jing Yan is not dead. It is a good time for you to show your skills. In the future, you will bring your merits back to Beijing. With your help, who else will be my opponent!"

Zhan Kun and Zhan Heng are completely opposite in appearance and personality.

Zhan Kun is tall, handsome, and fierce. Logically speaking, his martial arts should be good, but in fact, he has only learned the necessary horse riding and archery.

Zhan Heng looks like a handsome young man, and he is quite talented in reading, but he is judged by the martial arts master to be a good seed for martial arts training. Out of a certain psychology, he chose the opposite direction of development from Zhan Kun.

The two of them, one civil and one military, already complement each other, and Zhan Heng knows that if Zhan Kun wants to succeed, this is the best arrangement.

This night, no one knew what the two of them discussed later, only that Zhan Heng disappeared for three days and three nights after he left that night.

A few months later, when Zhan Heng stood in front of Concubine De in armor and said goodbye, the virtuous woman who had been virtuous for most of her life slapped them both hard.

Concubine De didn't spare any effort in these two slaps, even though the two brothers didn't dodge, she still almost fell down.

"I really don't know, you guys actually have such a plan!"

Her face was full of tears, and she looked at her two sons in disappointment.

"Do you know what the battlefield is like? The people there won't let you go just because you are a prince. If you really died there, wouldn't it be that I have raised you for more than ten years?"

Zhan Heng lowered her head, her eyes were red, but she didn't say a word, so she looked at her own son again, her eyes were even more angry.

"Zhan Kun! You have ambitions and ambitions, so you can go for it yourself. How dare you let your younger brother fight for you, you coward!"

Zhan Kun knew that his mother would be angry, but he didn't expect her to be so sad. He wanted to help his crumbling mother, but she struggled to shake him off.

Concubine De has been in the palace for decades, and she was still devoted to the emperor a few years ago. Later, she realized that the goodness of a living person is never as good as that of a dead person in his heart. After a long time, she will fade away.

Fortunately, she still has two children under her knees. Although Zhan Heng is not her own, after years of education, there is no difference between them and her own.

Without her husband's sincerity, in the days that followed, she put all her heart on the two brothers.

But now, the adopted son is about to go to the battlefield where people can eat people without spitting out their bones, and it's still for the ambition of parent-child.

For his own ambition, he can let his brothers who have grown up since childhood go through life and death for him, and fight bloody battles.

How could he bear it!

It's a pity that Concubine De's tearful pleading did not make the two sons change their minds.

For Zhan Kun, when he personally expresses the ambition that has been suppressed in his heart for many years, there will never be anyone or anything in this world that can make him give up.

And Zhan Heng, even if he didn't mention his deep-seated delusion, he would agree to Zhan Kun without hesitation.

He felt that he was raised by the concubine De and protected by his elder brother. No matter how much of it was sincere and how much of it was due to the trend, to him, it was all kindness.

He has nothing to repay this kindness, since Zhan Kun wants it, then he will grab it for him and give it to him!
Knowing that no matter how difficult it is to turn things around, Concubine De was still worried, and on the day Zhan Heng set out to fight, she personally gave the pair of heart mirrors to her two sons.

"The two of you, Xiaojing, are on the same side. On the battlefield, mother and concubine can't help Ah Heng, but Ah Kun, you must not forget that your brother has done for you. Don't let him have any worries on the battlefield."

The two brothers took it silently, and Zhan Kun swore to his mother.

"Mother Concubine, Ah Heng, don't worry, even if I really have a dream come true, as long as I have this mirror, I will always remember his feelings today, and I will never do anything to him!"

Zhan Heng was moved, and Concubine De also nodded in satisfaction. Apart from the fear of their lives, what she was afraid of was that the two brothers would lose their brotherhood due to this world war.

Zhan Kun's words may be sincere at this moment, but coincidentally, just like the reversed characters and appearances of the two, this oath is right, but the person who should swear is wrong...

Facts have proved that Zhan Heng, who is well-versed in everything, is indeed a natural leader.

That year, on the battlefield in the northern border, the young prince Zhan Heng, who was handsome, extraordinary in skill and victorious in all battles, not only frightened Bei Mu, but also became the dream lover of ladies in Beijing.

The courtiers who were waiting for a price in the ruling and opposition parties also suddenly realized at this time that this fifth prince, who was originally lonely and unknown, was so outstanding and dazzling.

Zhan Kun, who was dealing with various forces in Beijing, was pleasantly surprised by his brother's impressive results, but also a little disappointed as if he had been compared.

A year later, Zhan Heng, the world-renowned Fengming General, returned to Beijing, and a group of ministers drew up their bets one after another.

When he boarded Zhan Kun's mansion in person again, it was already half a month after he returned to Beijing. When the two brothers reunited after a long time saw each other, they were a little silent and embarrassed.

Except for the day when Zhan Heng returned to Beijing, after the two hurriedly said a few words in the crowd, this was the first time they saw each other again.

Zhan Heng was being questioned by his father and courtiers, and he was too busy to take a stroll, while Zhan Kun did not go to him because of inexplicable complications in his heart.

Su Wang, who covets the throne and has been hiding in his heart for several years, is somewhat obsessed with him.

　I wrote it in a hurry, and I will fix it later, I can't stand it anymore, good night!
