I’m the Hero, His Brother, Wear It Quickly

Yuan Jia set off to return to Beijing, and he immediately entered the palace to seek the emperor's return.

Yuan Jia gave the emperor a standard ceremony: "Wei Chen pays respects to the emperor."

The emperor smiled and said, "You brat, have you become estranged from your uncle after a long trip?"

Yuan Jia got up with a smile and said, "Uncle, don't I have a clear distinction between public and private!"

He is well aware of the sensitivity of his own identity, so he has always been clear about public and private to his uncle, the emperor.

After all, his emperor's uncle is indeed a wise man, and he has no intention of rebelling. He has a good grasp of how to get along with each other, and is close to him without being domineering. The emperor will not be jealous of him, but will trust him.

Yes, that's right, Yuan Jia chose the emperor between his father, King Jianping, and his uncle, the emperor.

Because according to his observations over the years, he found that the emperor was a wise man with iron blood but not cruelty.

At first, he thought that the emperor was too jealous of different surnamed kings, and it was very likely that he would turn into a hero who dressed up as Meng Yuanjia's first Zhenbei Gongfu, and walked to death. Later, he found that the emperor did not mean to forcefully cut the power of different surnamed kings.

The ancestor of King Jianping was a good brother who fought with the founding Taizu. He was trusted by the Taizu, and was even named the only king with a different surname in this dynasty, and his military power was not reduced.

However, after several generations, successive emperors were more afraid of kings with different surnames. In addition, the world had been peaceful for a long time, and there were not many wars.

So the late emperor wanted to cut off the military power and title of the different surnamed king in a peaceful and excessive way, so he married the eldest princess, Princess Xihua, to the prince of Jianping Wangfu at that time.

After the death of the previous emperor, the current emperor succeeded to the throne. Princess Xihua also became the eldest princess Xihua, and later the prince of Jianping Wangfu also became the king of Jianping.

The current emperor still continues the way of peaceful seizing power of the previous emperor. Boiled frogs in warm water gradually weakened the power of the Jianping palace lineage, allowing the heirs of Jianping palace lineage to take the royal bloodline and become a royal person.

The emperor treated Yuan Jia, his nephew so well, not only because of the face of his sister, Princess Xihua, but also because he wanted Yuan Jia, the heir of the Jianping palace, to be close to the royal family since he was a child.

After an heir who has royal blood and is very close to the royal family inherits the title and power of the Jianping Palace, can King Jianping still be considered a different surname king? This is no different from the royal family.

Because of this, Yuan Jia has no repulsion towards the emperor's uncle, and is willing to get close to the royal family as he wishes.

As for Yuan Jia's biological father, King Jianping, he was not so willing.

Yuan Jia has traveled over the past ten years, and can perceive King Jianping's contradictory attitude towards him that he values ​​and rejects. Moreover, he occasionally finds that King Jianping has done a lot of small actions secretly, which seems to be different.

Thinking that in the original plot, King Jianping took his concubine Xie Ying to rebel together, Yuan Jia's dissent towards King Jianping was not just a suspicion, but a certainty.

But he couldn't stop anything, because King Jianping didn't trust him at all.

On the surface, it seems that King Jianping attaches great importance to his noble son, but in fact, the secret power of Jianping's mansion did not let Yuan Jia know at all, and what he knew was superficial.

King Jianping was wary of his heir, who had royal blood.

＜＜＜＜＜＜

Yuan Jia stayed in the palace to dine with the emperor. This kind of thing was very common, and even the prince seldom received this kind of treatment from him.

Everyone knows that the emperor loves the little prince, the nephew, more than the princes, and only the prince can compare with him.

After Yuan Jia finished lunch with the emperor, he went to greet the empress dowager, and then went to the east palace to meet the prince before returning to the palace of the eldest princess.

When Princess Xihua saw her son who had come back after a long trip, she touched his face and said, "I've lost a lot of weight. I'm sure I didn't eat or drink well when I went out, my mother has to make up for it for you. ."

Yuan Jia smiled and said, "Mother, I'm not losing weight, I'm growing taller." In fact, his face didn't look thin at all, but there was something thin called "Mother thinks you are thin".

Princess Xihua said, "I've grown taller and thinner."

Yuan Jia had no choice but to acquiesce that he had lost a lot of weight. He was in pain and happily enjoying the loving soup that Princess Xihua ordered the kitchen to make for him.

After drinking the tonic soup, Yuan Jia informed Princess Xihua and went to Jianping Wangfu to meet King Jianping.

After all, when I came back from a business trip, my uncle, grandmother, cousin, mother, and mother had all met, but I didn't go to see my father. I was afraid that King Jianping would have an idea in his heart.

Although Yuan Jia felt that King Jianping probably had an idea in his heart, over the years, as Yuan Jia became more and more close to the royal family, the relationship between King Jianping and Princess Xihua became more and more cold, and the two had long since separated. One lives in the Princess Chang's mansion, and the other lives in Jianping's mansion, and rarely see each other unless necessary.

Yuan Jia could see the crux of the cold relationship between the two, but he couldn't tell the truth, so he pretended not to know.

Yuan Jia came to Jianping Prince's Mansion, and after asking the steward, learned that Jianping Prince was in the big study in the front yard, so he went straight to the big study.

King Jianping likes to sit in the big study in the front yard when dealing with affairs or meeting his subordinates. This is his office, so it is not surprising that King Jianping is in the big study.

There is a team of guards guarding the door outside the big study, which is also normal, because King Jianping's big study has many secrets, so naturally people can't sneak in, and someone has to guard it at all times.

Yuan Jia was canonized by the emperor as the heir of Jianping Prince when he was ten years old, so even if he lived in Jianping Prince's Mansion for a short time, he was still the undisputed heir of Jianping Prince's Mansion.

When the guards who guarded the gate saw Yuan Jia coming, they did not dare to stop him directly, but respectfully said: "Master Shi, this subordinate will inform the prince, please wait a moment."

Yuan Jia nodded slightly to him.

The guard turned and walked quickly towards the study door.

Yuan Jia's eyes fell on the closed study door, and squinted slightly, his consciousness had already 'seen' the two people in the study.

One is King Jianping, and the other is his younger brother Xie Ying.

He didn't expect that Xie Ying, who saw King Jianping as if a mouse met a cat, would be able to get in the way of being brought into the big study by King Jianping.

You must know that King Jianping was the one who despised Xie Ying's fear of him the most.

Thinking about it, King Jianping had no choice. After all, he only had two sons and one daughter, and his direct son was close to the royal family.

It's just... The curvature of Yuan Jia's lips gradually disappeared... I, the orthodox heir, are here. Father, have you ever asked me for my opinion?

＜＜＜＜＜＜

King Jianping was handling affairs with Xie Ying in his study when he suddenly heard a report from the guards outside the door: "My lord, the prince asks to see you."

King Jianping moved his hand for a while, glanced at Xie Ying, and said in a low voice, "Go and hide in the interior."

Xie Ying, who was tremblingly listening to King Jianping's lecture, was stunned for a moment and felt a little unwilling. Why would he hide when the elder brother came back? But he didn't dare not listen to King Jianping's words, so he immediately went inside and hid.

King Jianping said to the guards outside: "Let the prince come in."

"Yes, my lord."

Soon Yuan Jia knocked on the door: "Father?"

King Jianping said: "Come in."

Yuan Jia pushed open the door and entered, his eyes swept across the screen blocking the inner door, which made Jianping Wang's heart skip a beat.

Yuan Jia smiled and walked in front of King Jianping, and said, "Greetings to King Father."

King Jianping showed a loving smile and asked, "How did you go about this time? What went wrong?"

Yuan Jia replied: "Father, the king has been worrying too much. This time the business went smoothly. After I cut down a few officials who wanted to embezzle and manage the rivers and silvers, they were all honest."

King Jianping looked at the excellent and confident son-in-law in a complicated mood. Although Yuan Jia said it was easy and simple, he also knew that dealing with corrupt officials and managing the river was not so simple. There were bound to be many difficulties in the process. But a teenage son-in-law can easily settle these troubles.

Compared with this, Xie Ying, the concubine, is far behind.

King Jianping was both proud and unfortunate in his heart. How could such an excellent son-in-law be so close to the royal family?

Jianping Wang Han smiled and said: "You have done a good job, but don't be arrogant. Pride and arrogance will make you negligent. Any negligence may cause irreversible consequences..."

Yuan Jia also listened to his earnest teachings with a smile. He understood the truth and kept it in his heart. If anyone was willing to repeat it for him, he would also be willing to listen carefully.

But after listening, Yuan Jia said, "Father, isn't there a soft couch in your study? I feel a little sleepy, so I will borrow your soft couch to rest for a while."

He said a lame reason, bypassing the screen to push open the small door in the inner room, Xie Ying, who was hiding in the inner room, was about to jump out of his heart, and hurriedly searched for a place to escape for the second time.

King Jianping's heart tightened, and he quickly stopped him: "If you are sleepy, go back to your room and sleep. Why are you running around here and making fun of me? I don't like being disturbed when I handle official business."

Yuan Jia stretched out his hand, but stopped, did not open the door, and looked back at King Jianping, who was blocking him: "Don't worry, King Father, I'm just taking a nap, and I won't disturb King Father's office."

King Jianping still refused, and sternly refused: "Go back to your own yard, this is not a place for you to take a nap!"

Yuan Jia suddenly chuckled and joked: "Father is so afraid of me entering the room, is there someone hiding inside?"

King Jianping's face changed slightly, and then he heard Yuan Jia say: "Could it be that the father is hiding a beauty in the room? Afraid that I will find out and tell my mother?"
