Chapter 12: The Pride of Heaven
Yuan Lie returned to Yuan Mansion on the same day. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Yuan Lie has lived in the East Palace for nearly three years, and even if he returns home, he will say hello in advance, and it is the first time that he has come back without saying a word.
As soon as he came back, everyone was shocked, and his father, Shangshu Yuan Chongxu, a ministry, hurried back from the palace. Mrs. Ren was so anxious that she almost fainted.
Wonyeol knew that he couldn't let others know about the awkward affair with the prince, so he locked himself in the house and didn't let anyone in. Yuan Chongxu couldn't ask anything, and he was in a hurry at the door.
Did you quarrel with the prince? Or did he anger His Majesty and be driven back?
He hurriedly ordered his subordinates: "Quick, go and call the old man back." ”
The patriarch of the Yuan family, Yuan Lie's grandfather, who was nearly seventy years old, was just playing a game of chess with people in the teahouse, and was taken back to the house by the people. He was on a pear blossom wooden cane, his spirit was sharp, his steps were vigorous, he glanced at the panicked servants, and waved his big hand: "Don't pestle here, what should you do!" ”
raised his hand again and smashed Yuan Chongxu with a cane: "You are really going back more and more, a teenage baby, what can you do." The people didn't dare to come out, so the old man chased his son all over the yard and had a good breath.
Yuan Lie was buried in the quilt, and there was a faint fragrance of plum blossoms in the quilt.
Even if he didn't live in the Yuan Mansion all the year round, everything in his room was carefully arranged, and the bed was often changed, unlike in the palace, his mother would smoke his bedding with the plum blossom incense he liked.
He lifted the quilt and shrunk in.
He hadn't done such a childish act in a long time. Since he was a child, he has been strictly demanded, carefully cultivated, and behaved in line with the calm and elegant behavior of the children of the family, and then he was sent to the East Palace, where he was cautious and cautious, and did not dare to make a mistake.
Everyone envies him for being with the prince since he was a child, has a deep relationship, enjoys the treatment of the emperor's heir, sees the power of the emperor, and the rise and fall of the country, but he sometimes thinks that if he hadn't entered the palace, what would have happened to him?
Will it be like those young teenagers, do some of the things that teenagers want to do.
Such thoughts only come to me in the middle of the night.
He didn't know what kind of place Flower Street and Willow Lane was, and he had never gambled to slip through the birds, and all the vices of the gentlemen were strictly eliminated by him.
He read history books, analyzed policies, dabbled in poetry, calligraphy, piano and painting, and sometimes went to the temple to discuss with the presiding officer about the Buddhist scriptures of self-cultivation.
He knew what he wanted.
He wants to assist a generation of Ming Jun, and he wants to help Yang Yu create a prosperous era.
Once, he thought so.
He was respected in front of people, and was dubbed a "genius boy", and he couldn't imagine what else he could do at his age.
The door was quickly opened, he was not locked after all, but he was young and talented, and the government already regarded him as an important person in the Yuan family, so no one dared to break in without his consent.
The only people who can break in are the most respected people in the Yuan family.
Yuan Minghe sat down on the edge of his bed, the door was closed again, and the noise outside gradually dissipated.
"Tell me, what's wrong?" A deep and steady voice, with a hint of sternness.
Won Yeol buried his face even deeper. Princess An Ning's visit to the study has already made Yang Yu unhappy, if he says it, will his grandfather be as worried as him and think about it more seriously?
Yuan Minghe sighed deeply: "Is it about Princess Anning's study?" You have a conflict with the prince? ”
Yuan Yeol raised his head in shock, sat up, and smoothed the folded sleeves with his hands, his posture calm and respectful.
Yuan Minghe nodded with satisfaction, this is like a little bit of ******* thing, especially the matter of the outer study, it affects the whole body, all major families have children studying here, do you think who didn't put a few people, who didn't have the means to get some news. He patted Wonyeol on the shoulder earnestly.
"Yuan Lie, you are still young, it was we who sent you to the palace too early, so we developed an inflexible temperament like you."
"You have to understand that Princess An Ning went to study in the outer study, which was approved by the prince and His Majesty, this is a family matter of their royal family, and your participation in it is a passover, even if it is for the good of His Royal Highness the Prince."
Yuan Lie lowered his eyes, faintly resisting, but even more moving.
Yuan Minghe shook his head: "You have grown up with the prince since you were a child, and you are like brothers, but you still have to understand that the relationship between the monarch and the minister is very delicate and insurmountable." What the king wants to do, as a courtier, he should relieve his worries and doubts, which is the duty of a courtier. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be the emperor in the future, and you can't interfere in the decisions of the Crown Prince and His Majesty just because you have a close relationship with the Prince. ”
Yuan Lie was born smart, drawing inferences from one another, and he couldn't speak too thoroughly, Yuan Minghe faintly felt that he was no longer able to teach his grandson.
He can teach the strategy of the dynasty, and he can also teach the art of war strategy, but the way of getting along with the monarch and the minister, the way of friendship between the ministers, and even the sophistication of the people, the scheming and strategy, but Yuan Lie himself has to experience them, and others can't teach them.
The children of those clans all live in the red dust, the world is smooth, and Yuan Lie is like a green pine on the cliff, arrogant and cold, not contaminated with the slightest worry in the world.
Yuan Minghe's tone gradually became stern.
"The prince treats you kindly, so you don't know what to do, and you warn the prince without authorization, which is really arrogant. Princess An Ning is the heart of His Majesty, and the only sister of the prince, it is not an exaggeration to say that the emperor is against the scales, and it is not something that a courtier like you and me can blame. Look at the other people in the outer study, who will tell the prince that it was King Anjun who did this? Or is it the land side that does it? They're all old foxes! ”
Wonyeol had a thoughtful expression.
Yuan Minghe's voice was solemn, implying a hint of old age: "The monarch is profound, and it cannot be blasphemed." Yuan Lie, you are in the palace, it is the choice of the Yuan family, and it is also the glory of the Yuan family, you must not be slack off because of this, let alone rely on the emperor's grace and not know humility. ”
Yuan Lie's expression was shocked: "Grandpa, grandson doesn't dare." He suddenly remembered Yang Ziming, and wanted to talk to his grandfather, but seeing his grandfather's tired look, he had to endure it.
"Grandpa, my grandson has worried you, I will go back to the palace in the afternoon and apologize to the prince."
Yuan Minghe patted him on the shoulder: "Let's take it slowly, I will deliver a message to the palace later, so that you can also stay at home for a few days." Your father and mother miss you so much. ”
Seeing Yuan Lie's worried look, he comforted: "Although there is a difference between the monarch and the minister, the prince's friendship with you is not comparable to ordinary people, don't worry too much, when you go back, bring some gifts to His Royal Highness that he likes." ”
Yuan Lie nodded and ordered: "Yes." "Get up and get dressed.
Yuan Minghe looked at his mature, stable but stubborn and cautious grandson, and there was still a trace of doubt in his heart. He cultivated such a Yuan Lie for the Yuan Clan, is it right?
