Chapter Thirty-Eight: Difficult
Compared with the turmoil of the Chen family, the Jin'an County Mansion was as quiet as ever.
When he heard the rumor of breakfast in the inner courtyard, Mr. Gu in the outer courtyard looked up at the sky again.
"It's early enough for breakfast." He said.
"His Royal Highness was busy late last night, and now that he is in good health, he should get up late when he is tired." Grandpa Jing said.
Mr. Gu snorted.
"It depends on what you're busy with." He said.
Before his words fell, Grandpa Jing sneered.
Busy with what....
The young couple has two front feet and two mouths, and the back feet have not yet gotten up, what can they be busy with...
When Mr. Gu heard him laugh, he suddenly came back to his senses, his face was a little embarrassed and a little embarrassed.
"What do you want!" He said.
It was not for them to talk about the inner house of the Lord.
Gonggong Jing straightened his face.
"What I think is that His Highness can continue the bloodline, which can be regarded as a wish." He said.
Yes, if His Royal Highness has an heir, the bloodline of the King of Jin'an County can be passed on steadily, and it is really a great joy for the King of Jin'an County, who has been killed several times.
What could be more important than the continuation of the bloodline?
If it were someone else, he might still be a little nervous and worried, but that woman's child would definitely be able to protect it steadily.
It is no longer His Royal Highness who is working alone, but husband and wife are of the same heart.
Mr. Gu's expression softened.
While the two were talking, someone kicked in from outside the door.
"Grandpa Jing, the longbow has been found." The man said.
Mr. Gu was stunned.
"What do you want a longbow for?" He asked, looking at the longbow the man was carrying.
Gonggong Jing had happily stretched out his hand to take it. Take a closer look.
"Not bad. That's what it looks like. He said. After saying that, he happily took the bow and hurriedly left.
Mr. Gu frowned in the back, and then remembered that the people from the Chen family came yesterday and held a bow when they left.
I see.
The princess gave away her longbow, so Gonggong Jing was busy looking for another bow....
No, although Gonggong Jing is an internal servant, there is only one flattering one, so he will not take the initiative to find a bow for the princess, unless he is advised by the king of Jin'an County.
It seems that this is really touching the heart.
Mr. Gu couldn't help but smile.
It's good. It's good to have someone you really like as a companion, but...
Thinking of this, Mr. Gu couldn't help but shake his head.
It's just that it would be better if it was the other way around, and the woman was wholeheartedly devoted to Her Highness.
Watching Gonggong Jing personally hang the longbow on the wall, the king of Jin'an County was a little casual.
“… Industry is good at diligence, and it cannot be wasted in a day. He said, "Take a handful at will, you can use it first, and then find what you like." ”
Take a handful at will...
This casual can make them busy from last night to now, so they almost jumped into Chen's house, took out the bow, and looked for it from shop to shop.
This is the so-called makeup and asked the husband in a low voice, the thrush is deep and shallow.
Gonggong Jing pouted.
"When Qi is not enough, people are expensive. A song of Ling Song is the enemy of ten thousand gold. Cheng Jianniang said, looking at the king of Jin'an and smiling. Your casualness is enough for me to like. ”
Gonggong Jing turned his head in amazement, and saw that the woman was eating slowly with chopsticks in her hand, with a hint of a smile on the corner of her mouth, looking at the king of Jin'an sitting opposite.
And the king of Jin'an County also held chopsticks in his hand, but his expression was a little dull at this time.
She knew that His Highness had put a lot of thought into it, so she pointed it out bluntly, and then said that I like it......
I like it......
This is... Is it teasing His Highness?
Gonggong Jing's gaze fell on the king of Jin'an County, and he clearly watched the young man's ears slowly turn red.
"That's too." The young man pretended to be a little free and easy, and stretched his arm slightly, "The courtesy is light and affectionate." ”
Cheng Jianniang smiled and didn't speak again, bowing her head to eat.
The king of Jin'an also ate casually, but his smile was open when he raised his sleeves to hide it by drinking soup, and he could see it clearly from the perspective of Gonggong Jing.
Gonggong Jing couldn't help but laugh.
The king of Jin'an put down the soup bowl with a bit of a wolf and glared at him.
"You can use the little study."
After eating, King Jin'an said.
"I'll use the outside one."
Laugh at this.
"I should be fine now that I'm walking around the house, right?"
Cheng Jianniang nodded.
"yes, now everyone can't take care of you." She said.
Now everyone's attention is on the prince's marriage.
King Jin'an nodded.
"I'm going to hear what the outside world is saying now." He said.
Cheng Jianniang nodded, and watched the king of Jin'an take people out, and it didn't take long for Cheng Jianniang to write a word in the study, and the king of Jin'an came back.
"How?" Cheng Jianniang asked.
The face of the king of Jin'an was not very good.
"What else can I say." He said, "There are pushes and pulls, there are fires and there are oilers, anyway, they all want Chen Xianggong to roast on the fire, you don't know Gao Lingbo's methods, this person is smart and capable, and he suffers hardships and enjoys blessings, and he endures scolding and is praised, saying that he is a gentleman, he is a villain, saying that he is a villain, he has some gentlemanly and frank style, although I can't wait for him to die, but I also have to admire his strength." ”
He said and smiled.
"At this time, everyone outside said that it was Chen Xianggong who first intended to make his daughter the crown princess, but he regretted it because his wife was against it."
"There is also news in the palace that the Queen Mother is sick, and the hospital is in chaos."
Speaking of this, he sat cross-legged and leaned over to Cheng Jiaoniang's side.
"Also, those who originally entered the palace and intended to choose a concubine have all set their daughters to be married in the family."
Cheng Jianniang raised her head and looked at him.
"They say they don't dare to be speculated about, and they can only use this to prove that they are not selfish." King Jin'an said.
You Chen Xianggong dislikes the prince for being a fool and disdains to marry a girl, so are those of us who marry a daughter also disliked in the eyes of your Chen Xianggong?
If you Chen Xianggong dislike your relatives for selfish power, then if we really marry our daughters, we are really wrong-hearted.
That being the case. Who would dare to make their daughter the crown princess.
"Someone will dare." Cheng Jianniang said. "Just wait."
King Jin'an sighed.
"But Chen Xianggong is a gentleman." He said. "A gentleman is cautious, so he can be bullied."
This thorn is rooted in Chen Shao's heart, and he can't pull it out, even if others don't talk about it anymore, he won't be able to pass his own level.
Cheng Jianniang, who didn't talk much, didn't speak even more.
The room fell silent.
King Jin'an hesitated, reached out and pushed her arm.
"Let's go out for a walk, it's boring to be bored in the yard every day." He said, complaining a little. “… I walked around the street on the day I got home. ”
"Then the circle that should have been turned that day was bigger." Cheng Jianniang said.
The king of Jin'an was stunned, and immediately laughed.
Thinking of that day, Father-in-law Jing was smart and didn't dare to stop or walk around, so he had to go around the county king's mansion.
This guy thought they were doing that kind of thing in a carriage, and I don't know how he came up with it!
The thought flashed through that kind of thing, and the face of the King of Jin'an couldn't help but turn red.
"You're making fun of me again." He said.
Cheng Jiaoniang's expression was still the same.
"Nope." She said earnestly.
The king of Jin'an County couldn't help but laugh again when he saw her serious appearance.
"You're funny." He said, standing up, "Go, go, let's go to the yard for a walk." ”
seemed to be afraid that Cheng Jianniang would not agree, so she reached out and pulled her arm.
“…… I'm not in good health right now. It's not very safe to walk alone. ”
“… Imperial Doctor Li is not at home when he goes out..."
Watching the two of them walk out one after the other, Banqin and Su Xin were busy giving gifts. They waited a few steps before they could catch up from a distance.
"Sister." Banqin couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Your Highness said that the lady is really interesting, is the lady really interesting?" ”
Su Xin smiled.
"In the eyes of those who like it, it is naturally interesting." She chuckled.
Like...
If you like it, it's good.
Banqin breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but when she thought of hearing what His Highness said about Chen Shao, her heart was depressed again.
"Is this still going to happen?" She whispered.
Just said what the lady said, where did you miss it...
It's cruel, but what can be done?
"In the past, when we first established ourselves in Beijing, my lady took me by car and passed through the street." Su Xin said suddenly.
Banqin looked at her with some puzzlement.
"The lady asked me to look outside, I was passing by the fairy house at that time, the fairy house at that time was not our fairy house, the lady asked me what I saw, I said that I saw the popularity is not as good as before, the lady asked me what I saw, at that time it was because Dou Qishang rushed to provoke the lady, so the lady made a happy and comfortable, the business of the fairy house plummeted, the lady didn't care about him according to the passing fairy for himself, but he didn't believe it, suspicious of the ghost, and found trouble himself." Su Xin said.
Banqin couldn't help but laugh when she thought of what happened at that time.
"That's why I saw that you should be kind, don't think you're bullying others, bullying others is also bullying yourself." Su Xin continued, "But the lady still asked me what I saw. ”
Banqin couldn't help but sneer when she heard this.
The lady asked so much, and she was afraid that she would not be able to answer one, but when she thought about it, the lady would never talk nonsense, and she was willing to speak because she knew that you could listen to her, so the lady would not ask herself such questions, she would only ask questions that she could answer.
The smile on Banqin's face spread, and he reached out to hold Su Xin's hand.
"Just at a glance, you can see so many problems?" She said.
"Actually, it's just one problem." Su Xin said, smiling slightly, "I can't answer, so the lady told me that it's difficult." ”
"Difficult?"
"To do one thing, to do one thing well, to stand firm, to stand firm, it is very difficult, it is not easy."
It has nothing to do with good and evil, the way of heaven is ruthless, and the way of the world is difficult.
Yes, it's really difficult, who would have thought that Chen Shao would suddenly encounter such a thing.
Banqin sighed softly.
"I don't know how sad Danniang will be if she knows." She whispered.
Danniang, only eleven years old, if this matter is decided like this. She hasn't had time yet, and the girl Huaichun looks forward to the person she wants to marry in the future.
The young girl who is pregnant with spring and the husband she longs for will definitely not be a stupid person.
"That's fine." Su Xin said.
There is no despair without hope.
…………………………………………………
Old Lady Chen's courtyard was solemn. Although there were not many servants in the past. But it won't be like there are no people like today, and at first glance it looks as if there are no people living in this courtyard.
Footsteps sounded softly, and someone walked out of the hall, looked at Chen Shao, who was still kneeling in the courtyard, and sighed softly.
"Sir, get up." The old servant whispered, "You don't know the old lady's temper. ”
Chen Shao's face was sad and he didn't get up.
"What? Can you keep your children and me, a father? Old Lady Chen's voice came from the hall. The man also walked out and looked at the old servant, "Is the car all loaded?" ”
The old servant bowed his head and replied.
Chen Shao kowtowed.
"You don't have to kowtow to me." Old Lady Chen said lightly, "You and my father and son are very familiar, I know your thoughts, and you also know my thoughts, so you don't need to say those false polite words anymore, I will ask you one more word, do you want your ministers or humane?" ”
"Father." Chen Shao raised his head, his eyes were red, and his voice was astringent. "The father understands the son's situation now, and the father understands what it will be like for the son to make such a decision. What the son is for, the father also understands. ”
"Then you also know that it is easier to disagree with this family affair than to agree to this family matter, right?" Old Lady Chen said.
Chen Shao kowtowed in response.
"My son knows." He said.
Even if he will be scolded and ridiculed by the outside world, as long as he grits his teeth, he can get through it.
"Then you are really reluctant to give up your status and power today?" Old Lady Chen said.
Chen Shao kowtowed again, raised his head and straightened his body.
"Father." His voice choked, "If my son was really greedy for power, he wouldn't have agreed to support King Qing as the crown prince in the first place." ”
Supporting the fool as the crown prince, expelling the Gao family, forcing the queen mother to retreat, and doing this series of things will bear the reputation of flying and domineering, which will not protect his powerful position, but will become a thorn in the side of the courtiers.
In comparison, with Zhang Jiangzhou and other Shilin people to unite with the succession clan to inherit the unification, on the contrary, he can be respected by the new emperor because of his meritorious work, and he will be prosperous and respected.
"Since His Majesty was seriously ill and did not wake up, my son has been restless day and night."
"I often think of the long talk between Majesty and Son, talking about the past and the present, and seeing with my own eyes how many grand ambitions His Majesty has, but now it has not yet been realized."
"I really can't put it down."
Chen Shao choked and kowtowed.
"It doesn't have to be Danniang." Old Lady Chen said in a dumb voice, "Wait a minute, bear with it, deal with Gao Lingbo, it's easy to say." ”
Chen Shao didn't get up.
"Father, I can't wait." He choked up and said, "Your Majesty can't wait." ”
Old Lady Chen was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what she meant.
"If the prince's family affairs have not been decided next year, it will really be chaotic then." Chen Shao choked up and said.
Next year......
Next year, His Majesty, the stupid prince's family affairs are undecided, and the heirs are undecided, and the court will inevitably be chaotic again, and now the successor clan faction that has died down will definitely stand up again.
At that time, the emperor had been seriously ill for a long time, and the remaining awe had been exhausted, so you can imagine how many people had to think again.
Old Lady Chen looked at Chen Shao and shook her head slowly.
"However, the most urgent thing about these things should not be you." He said, "In the court, in a high position, in fact, it should not be the way of a gentleman. ”
The crown prince can't ascend the throne as the emperor, and it is Gao Lingbo who should be the most anxious, and it is Gao Lingbo who should come forward to deal with it, not Chen Shao.
This incident can already be clearly known that Gao Lingbo was framed by power, and it was Chen Shao's way of being a loyal and honest gentleman, pouring sewage on him, and completely ruining his reputation.
bears infamy among the people and officials, and has to protect the new son of heaven to sit firmly in the country, and once the new son of heaven sits in the country, the first person to get rid of is him Chen Shao.
Knowing that this is being calculated by the villain, if you still want to pursue the way of a gentleman, it is a dead end, and what you should do at this time is to abandon the way of a gentleman and govern others with the way of others.
Abandon the way of a gentleman.
Chen Shao raised his head and looked at his father with a somewhat resolute expression.
"Self-reflexive does not shrink, although brown and broad, I am not worried; Shrinking from self-reflection, although there are tens of millions of people, I will go. He said slowly, "Zeng Zizhi kept the promise, and he didn't dare to forget it." ”
