Chapter 299 The difference is obvious
But Yan Jin can completely understand.
His father's harem had very few harems. In order to consolidate his power over the years, Jiang Yi did not have any more sons and a half daughters. There were only two masters in the harem, the empress and the concubine De, and there was only one prince.
Yan Li is the emperor's only daughter and the queen's legitimate daughter, and she has just been named the eldest princess.
Who dares to neglect me?
Along the way, I bowed to Yan Jin and said, "See you, Prince."
"No need to be polite." Yan Jinyu stood outside Zhaoyang Palace, with a slender figure and a gentle tone, "Go and inform the eldest princess that I want to see her."
"Yes." The palace maid turned around, closed the palace door, and walked quickly to the main hall of Zhaoyang Palace.
After a while, Yan Li walked out of the palace, saw Yan Jin standing outside the palace gate, and asked lightly: "Is something wrong?"
"Sorry for bothering my sister so late." Yan Jin smiled at him with a few apologies, "I just came from the eldest brother's place, and I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to adapt to it when you came back, so I came here to have a look."
"There's nothing uncomfortable about it." Yan Li walked out with a gentle voice, "Miss Ling is staying with me tonight, so I can't invite Brother Huang in for a chat."
"It's okay, I just want to talk to you." Yan Jin smiled and shook his head, then suggested, "Go to the Imperial Garden for a stroll?"
"Yeah." Yan Li nodded.
The two of them walked along the palace road to the imperial garden, and several palace guards followed them quietly.
The palace lanterns lit up in the distance.
The scenery in the Royal Garden is more tranquil at night than during the day.
Yan Jin's voice became a little calmer and lonely: "I feel very guilty."
Yan Li turned her head to look at him: "What are you feeling guilty about?"
"I feel guilty that you, the Mu State, have suffered so many years of grievance, and I feel guilty that the Jin State has trapped my mother for so many years, making it impossible for her to be a qualified mother." A self-blaming smile flashed across the corner of Yan Jin's lips, "I feel even more guilty about us. I have shown a deep brother-sister love in front of you."
Because it is fake, I feel guilty.
Yan Li didn't take it seriously: "There's nothing to feel guilty about. There are many things that you can't make the decision or influence, just like the current emperor cannot predict the changes in the Prince's Mansion."
"I hope you won't take it to heart what the eldest brother said to you at the palace banquet today." Yan Jin smiled warmly, showing the demeanor of a gentleman, "He..."
"You really want to find a reason to defend him." Yan Li raised her eyebrows slightly, and her eyes were surprisingly clear, as if she could see through everything, "But I soon discovered that no reason could give him the power to speak. excuse."
Yan Jin looked at her in surprise, then laughed for a moment: "The emperor's sister doesn't look like a ten-year-old girl at all."
"You are no longer a girl if you are married." Yan Li said calmly, "But I am in November, the season when plum blossoms are in full bloom. In other words, in just over a month, I will be fifteen."
Yan Jin hummed and said, "On the first day you come to the Jin Kingdom, your mother will definitely hold a grand banquet for you."
"Brother Huang, aren't you planning to fight for the reserve position?"
Yan Jin was slightly surprised, then shook his head: "Brother the Emperor and I are from the same mother and father——"
"What if he fails?"
Yan Jin was silent for a moment: "Failure is fate."
He has always felt that the eldest brother is not suitable to be the emperor, but among their princes, who is suitable to be the emperor?
The accident that year not only severely damaged the national strength of Jin, but also caused indelible damage to several of them. The brothers became more or less emotional, unstable, eager for quick success, and even a little low self-esteem and sensitive.
Because I was worried about being controlled by 그 again, and I was unwilling to leave my destiny to others, I couldn't show absolute patience in the fight for the reserve. I was too eager, and I was so eager that I couldn't even pretend or tolerate it.
A man obsessed with power, even if he ascends to the throne as he wishes, can he be determined to govern the world well?
"My mother has taken care of us a lot over the years. Maybe I am more sentimental, so I have never been very promising." Yan Jin sighed softly, and the smile on the corner of her lips was like the breeze and the bright moon. "I used to even think that the Jin Kingdom was not as powerful as it should be. After all, it was the empress’s hard work that prolonged the fate of Jin for another dozen years.”
Yan Li looked at the scenery in the imperial garden and said in a calm and indifferent voice: "The Jin Dynasty is not exhausted, because there has not yet been a traitorous official who will harm the country and the people, and the emperor is not a coward who harms the country."
Although the various factions in the DPRK have different positions, and most of them are for their own interests, the treacherous and evil ministers and ignorant and cruel kings who disrupted the DPRK before the fall of the country have not yet appeared.
The biggest long-term disadvantage of the Jin State is the excessive oppression of women by men. This kind of oppression certainly exceeds the limit of the word "men are superior to women".
"Huang Mei came from the Mu Kingdom and is used to women having certain freedoms, so she hates the system of the Jin Kingdom." Yan Jin pondered for a moment, "Is Huang Mei going to change this situation?"
"I do have this idea." Yan Li said calmly, "Although it's a little difficult, it's a matter of course."
Yan Jin looked at her deeply: "For the first time, I saw a benevolent mind from a girl."
Clinging to the strong is driven by interests, while pity for the weak is benevolent.
Compassion and willingness to take action to help the weak are the heart of a benevolent person and the magnanimity of a strong person.
It's just that Yan Jin doesn't want to praise Yan Li too highly for the time being. There are some things that he knows in his heart but can't say out loud.
Otherwise, praise can also become a weapon of hurt.
"Don't praise me too much, I don't need it." Yan Li's voice was very calm, "I just do what I want to do, and it has nothing to do with anything else."
Yan Jin nodded slowly: "Yes."
"My brother and my eldest brother are brothers from the same mother. I won't ask you to be his enemy, but I sincerely hope that you won't do anything against your will." Yan Li tilted his head to look at him, with a little more sincerity in his tone, "If there is a conflict between him and me, I hope it will only be a matter between him and me, and don't involve other innocent people."
Yan Jin was silent, then raised his mouth, with a sigh in his eyes.
Look, they are both royal blood.
One is the eldest son of the royal family, and the other is a ten-year-old girl who just came back. The two identities are completely unequal, but the difference in temperament is obvious.
If Yan Li was a man...
Yan Jin suddenly had this idea in his mind, and then he was subtly startled and suppressed the idea without a sound.
How could he have such an idea?
This is ridiculous!
Yan Jin sighed softly and slowly stopped: "Royal sister, go back first, don't let Miss Ling wait for too long, I will walk around the garden alone."
Yan Li nodded and said goodbye calmly.
