That night Li Zhi took Qi's hand and lay down. At this time, he was a little fragile and needed warmth and care like a child. Qi stayed with him and said nothing. She knew that the prince was not happy every day. There may also be a lot of grievances and bitterness that are not humane to outsiders, and those rotten fruits and materials can explain everything.

Early the next morning, Li Zhi handed over a sign requesting to enter the palace to see the prince. Brother Gan thought for a long time before asking: "Why do you want to see me suddenly?"

"I heard from the secret report that the couple cried in the house yesterday, and they are going to the palace today. I wonder if the emperor reprimanded the four princes?"

"Well, my father beat him up. What do you think?"

Zhu Zhu smiled and said, "Actually, the four princes seriously said that they did not do any bad things. Maybe they are just unwilling to accept it. You also know that the life of the unpopular prince and princess is difficult. What the slaves like to do most is to praise the superior and suppress the inferior. Then There are so many tricks. I guess I am feeling aggrieved, thinking that you and the Crown Princess are deliberately trying to get rid of your brother."

"Well, I heard about it. Let me come in, tell the princess, meet my sister-in-law, and see what tricks the couple is playing.

He is always my brother, and I will tolerate them no matter what. I promised my mother that as long as they don't go too far, I will tolerate them."

"yes."

Zhuzhu bowed his head and retreated.

Brother Qian put down his pen and sighed quietly, saying to himself: "Fourth brother, I hope you won't disappoint me. My patience is limited. I am not a father and will not tolerate you making mistakes and being naughty children all my life."

In Brother Qian's opinion, the brothers are all brats, and there's nothing wrong with that.

He has been very independent since he was young, and Li Chengze's upbringing was extremely strict. He was raised in an imperial style from an early age, which was completely different from the upbringing of his brothers.

Even though his four brothers were all much older than him, in his eyes, these brothers were all annoying brats who kept acting like monsters and repeatedly stabbed his parents in the heart by relying on the kindness and kindness of his father, the queen, and his mother.

Li Zhi entered the palace and came to see his brothers in person. He hadn't sat down and chatted for a few years.

"I would like to send my greetings to His Majesty the Crown Prince. Fifth brother, I have brought you some good wine. How about we have a nice drink with my brother today? It has been a while since we sat down to have a glass of wine and talk."

Li Zhixian asked An Zai to talk about brotherly love.

"good."

Brother Gan asked him to go to the small hall, and after a while, the servants came over with wine and food. Xiaoya had people prepare them in advance after getting the news.

"Good food, my younger siblings are capable, and they are of good quality and good taste."

Li Zhi sat down and looked at the dishes, nodding with satisfaction.

"Fourth brother has come here recently just to drink with me. Can your back handle drinking?"

"Look at this man, why is he so unpleasant? He stabs a person's mouth with a knife and he can't die. I am also my own son, how can he really beat me to death?"

Li Zhi poured wine for each other and gave him a white look.

Brother Gan looked at him and raised his eyebrows without saying anything. He picked up the wine first as a sign of respect and nodded slightly to drink.

"I brought my wife here to apologize to you and your wife. I have caused trouble to my brothers and sisters in the past few days, and I also apologize for all the things I have done in the past. I said that I shouldn't have targeted you. I'm sorry, brother. I sincerely apologize to you."

"Okay, I accept."

Brother Gan was also very happy, maybe this was what he was waiting for.

In addition to my two biological brothers, I actually had respect and close feelings and thoughts towards my four older brothers. However, as time goes by and people grow up, their hearts change.

Li Zhi drank a glass of wine by himself, drank it down in one gulp, and narrowed his eyes to highlight the smell of alcohol.

"The four of us are jealous of you, really, not only because you are the legitimate son, but also because you have a good mother.

I envy you very much. When I was a child, I loved coming to my mother's place to play. She would give me delicious fruits and hold me in her arms and ask questions."

I poured another glass of wine and drank it.

"But every time I go back, my mother is not happy. She scolds me harshly, for fear that someone will snatch me away. She also repeatedly tells me who my mother is. Your mother is just a palace maid. It's useless for you to climb a high tree. People don't care.

If it's not you, your father has four sons. If she wants to choose a son, it won't be your turn, so stop dreaming."

He sighed and wiped the tears from his eyes.

"I was actually very young at that time and didn't think much about it. I just simply liked it. I didn't dare to go if I talked too much, otherwise she would cry and cry non-stop, saying that I was unfilial and wanted to abandon her to climb up the ladder.

"

Li Zhiyang raised his head and let out a long breath.

"When I grew up, I was not as valued as my eldest brother, and I was not as smart as my third brother who knew how to stay dormant. Among the brothers, I was the least qualified. After you and the sixth and seventh brothers were born and went to school one after another, the gap became more and more obvious. No matter how hard I tried,

I can't catch up with you even if I study hard.

Every time I want to see my father, I look forward to it, but when it comes time for me to be admitted to the school, I am always very nervous, and I always mess up the situation, and the chance to meet my mother and concubine is in vain."

He lowered his head and shed tears, "I worked really hard and never slacked off."

"I don't like the palace, but this is my home. Every time the fruits are distributed, they are always broken and rotten. My mother-in-law will use a knife to dig out the rotten parts and give me the good ones to eat. I hate it.

She is like this."

Brother Gan was silent after hearing this. He had never experienced the grievances of being left out for a long time and being secretly and harshly treated by slaves, so the reason why the Queen asked him to be more tolerant must be this. Some things cannot be tolerated. The greed of the people below is not something the Queen refuses to give in to.

can be prohibited.

There are always people who dare to take risks for their own benefit. Killing people cannot solve all problems. Self-improvement is the only way.

"I wanted to file a complaint, but she wouldn't let me. She said it was useless. As long as you can grow up safely, it would be the greatest blessing. She also said that my father was more wronged and miserable than you back then. There are some things that cannot be stopped. She is a palace maid.

Knows more than I do."

Li Zhi drank another glass of wine and let out a long sigh.

"I'm not here to show you misery to gain sympathy. I just want to say that I have a fire in my heart that I can't hold back and swallow. I won't give in.

We are all the sons of the emperor, why should I be trampled on by others? Even if the mother and queen clean up the harem several times and grant amnesty to the world and let people out of the palace, they still dare to bully the prince and princess like this. Why, just because we have no rights? "

Li Zhi covered his face with his hands.

Brother Gan also poured a glass of wine to toast him, "I really don't know these things. Are they making things difficult for you and your sister-in-law?"

Li Zhi nodded, "Ms. Qi is standing up for me. She is a bit impulsive. She has never suffered anything since she was a child and has never seen anything like this. Plus, my mother-in-law is brainless and biased, and she does stupid things at a moment's notice.

She strongly urged me to come to apologize, but I might not be able to make up my mind on my own. Although she is heartless, has a soft ears, and has a reckless personality, she treats me sincerely and persuades me to let go of things I shouldn't have.

My thoughts are that living a good life is the right thing to do. Your Highness, just because of my meager face, please forgive Mr. Qi."

"Okay, I won't embarrass my sister-in-law."

Brother Qi didn't go back to touch Mrs. Qi. He checked that it was indeed Yu Ning who was behind the scenes to instigate Mrs. Qi. Mrs. Qi also suffered a little injustice and was trampled by her slaves. It was inevitable that she would feel unhappy. This matter could be tolerated.
