Chapter 983: The eldest daughter is as bright as spring flowers (one hundred and five)

The eighth prince prided himself on being the happiest prince in the royal family. As the youngest prince, he had always been loved by the empress dowager and the emperor, and even his mother, the queen consort, was very tolerant of him.

Because he was dull and not outstanding in any aspect, he posed no threat to the other princes, and his mother had never thought of asking him to compete for that position, so he had nothing to worry about, and his brothers were happy to be a good brother who doted on his younger brother.

But now the Eighth Prince discovered that his Seventh Brother, who was also raised by his mother, actually had such great malice towards him.

The Eighth Prince lowered his head, and the Seventh Prince lay prone on the ground. Neither of them noticed that several people in the room were looking at them, including the Emperor. By the time a large number of guards and officials arrived, the assassins had been dealt with.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being late in rescuing you."

The emperor listened to his subordinate's apology, snorted coldly, and asked the Minister of War to investigate the matter thoroughly.

[What's there to investigate? It must have been done by the Crown Prince or Fourth Brother, two people in the capital. Or it could be the eldest or third brother, the thief crying "stop thief." The Mongolian and island people are just a deception.]

The emperor suddenly called out, "Seventh Brother, who do you think is behind this?"

Zhao Jian had already been helped to his feet. He replied respectfully, "Your Majesty, I am a foolish and ignorant person. I dare not speculate before the matter is fully understood."

"Why did the Emperor suddenly ask me this? How should I answer? If I don't answer well, won't I offend my other brothers? Oh, could it be that the Emperor has taken me seriously? I was saying that a person like me, with a lot of inner beauty and a lot of inner thoughts, how could I not be valued?" The Emperor couldn't help but frown. "I don't want to hear your nonsense."

"Yes, Father. Judging from the weapons and moves, it's possible that assassins from the enemy country are taking advantage of the autumn hunt to cause trouble. Fortunately, with my eldest brother, third brother, and Marquis Annan here, those conspiracies and tricks will be thwarted."

"They really showed up, but I was the one who was hurt the most. Wei Ying is really enviable. He's a young hero, and he even got a beautiful woman. Why can't the emperor consider me? Geng Qianqian is of lower status after all."

Zhou Zhiying and Song Qingting are also crazy, chasing me around all the time. My father must be overthinking it, which is why he won't grant me and Miss Song a marriage.]

The emperor looked at his seventh son with a pair of stern eyes.

Zhao Jian was bowing his head to perform the ceremony, but he felt a little uneasy.

[What's going on? Why do I feel like I'm being stared at by a wild beast?]

The eldest prince said, "Seventh brother, are you saying that all this was done by the Mongolians and the islanders?" "Yes, brother, when we return, you can first detain those Mongolian envoys and interrogate them."

The third prince smiled with an ambiguous meaning.

"Seventh brother does have an idea."

"Third brother is flattering my younger brother. I just want to find out the truth."

The emperor waited for a while, and when he was sure that he could no longer hear Zhao Jian's inner voice, he said coldly:

"Seventh Brother, go back and practice your martial arts. You are not good at literature, but you are good at martial arts. The royal family cannot be so useless. Even Eighth Brother is better than you."

The emperor left a word and rode away on horseback.

Zhao Jian looked up suddenly. What did his father mean? Was he not as good as a loser? He was just keeping a low profile. He was just talented but not appreciated, his ambitions unfulfilled!

Zhao Jian still didn't understand why everyone was looking at him so strangely. Could it be because his father had scolded him? His father was also upset, so he shouldn't blame him! He was embarrassed in front of everyone.

The emperor had been escorted away, with the eldest prince at the rear. Wei Ying had already taken Qingli over.

The Third Prince was right next to Zhao Jian. He patted Zhao Jian's arm and said, "Seventh Prince, is your waist okay? Take good care of it, or the wound will worsen and affect your future marriage and childbirth. That would be really unfortunate for your Seventh Brother's wife."

The eldest prince laughed heartily, patted Zhao Jian on the back and said, "I don't think the injury is serious. Third brother, you are worrying too much. It's just a minor injury. In a few days, when I go to court, my seventh brother will be full of energy again."

Zhao Jian was in so much pain that he couldn't speak. His wound must have split open.

The Third Prince nodded and said, "Big Brother is right. Our Seventh Brother is in good health, don't you think? Eighth Brother?"

The eighth prince followed the eldest prince and patted Zhao Jian's shoulder with force.

"Well, Third Brother is right. Seventh Brother is in good health, unlike Eighth Brother, who is so fat that he looks weak. Oh, Seventh Brother, there is no need to find a chef and delicacies for me. I don't need them. If I keep eating, I won't be able to escape next time."

"Three, big, eight... cough... cough... cough... it hurts..."

In front of the three brothers, Zhao Jian didn't even have time to utter a complete sentence.

Qingli was watching the fun from the side. Zhao Jian must have felt the gentle love and care from his brothers, right? The invisible man was suddenly getting attention, so he must have been secretly happy.
