Chapter 62: Younger Brother
The marriage of the prince of Great Qi was chosen by the emperor. After the prince becomes a king, he usually has a main concubine and two side concubines. The main concubines and side concubines must be married by the emperor's decree to count. Of course, concubines and the like depend on the personal preferences of the princes and princes.
At this time, King Cheng had something to go, so Lehou naturally wouldn't force him to stay, and he also arched his hand and said: "His Royal Highness King Cheng walks slowly." ”
Lehou got up and went to see him off, and there were only Chu Yueqing and Li's mother and son in the house.
Lehua hadn't recovered from the news of Xia Xiang's death, and saw that King Cheng had already gone away, and it was inconvenient for her to chase him out to see him off.
There was silence in the room for a moment.
Chu Yueqing didn't expect that the matter of Granny Li and Xia Xiang would be done under such circumstances. But although it was different from what she thought, she was still satisfied with the result.
Chu Yueqing remembered that he was going to see Aunt Luo, so he was also ready to leave, "Madam, Yueqing has other things to do, I'm afraid I can't have lunch in the Hou Mansion." ”
Li Shi wished that she was not here to be an eyesore, and hurriedly responded: "Okay, then I won't leave Qing'er." ”
After Chu Yueqing left, Le Jun also secretly followed, leaving Li and Lehua in the house.
"Mother, do you think that is a little different when she comes back this time?" Lehua was the first to react and asked Li.
Li said angrily: "Hmph! This little is the same as Xiao Qinyu, and he is the best at doing this kind of thing. Back then, she knew that I was the lord of the marquis, but she still married your father. Hua'er, you have to remember that the day you become the queen, you must not let her go! ”
"Mother, don't talk nonsense." Lehua looked inside the house, fortunately, because he discussed their family affairs with King Cheng just now, he let all the people in the house go out.
Lehua breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Mother, you must not be so direct in the future, this is a big disrespectful word." It's a shame that there are only two of us mother and daughter in the house today, if we are listened to by that caring person, we will be finished! ”
"It's not nobody, it's someone, of course I wouldn't say that." The Li family was already angry with Chu Yueqing, but now he was reprimanded by Lehua, and his mood was even more unhappy.
Lehua naturally heard that Li was angry, so he approached Li and comforted: "Mother, don't worry. I will definitely not let Yueqing go! ”
――
Dongmei came out of the front hall and said that she had something to do to go to Shuiqing Pavilion, and Chu Yueqing answered her. So he and Mozhi called Uncle Luo and went with him to worship Aunt Luo.
Aunt Luo was buried in a woodland in the backyard of the Hou Mansion. This forest, with towering trees and overgrown weeds, usually does not come at all, which is basically equivalent to desertion. In fact, if you have been walking along the forest and walking for a long time, you will see a path, from which road goes all the way to the north, you can lead to Jingshan.
This forest is the natural barrier of the Hou Mansion, and few people will pass through the forest, so few people know that this forest is the backyard of the Hou Mansion. Of course, in order to prevent anyone with a heart, Le Hou also made a double guarantee, he built a wall between the backyard and the front yard of the Hou Mansion, leaving only a small door two people wide in the middle.
After Le Jun came out of the front hall, he had something to ask Chu Yueqing. saw Chu Yueqing, who said that he wanted to go back to the palace, not only did he not leave, but he also went to the backyard of Lehou Mansion with Uncle Luo.
Le Jun remembered what happened in the front hall and was furious, and rushed out, "Yueqing! What are you doing?! ”
Hearing the voice, Chu Yueqing turned around, and saw Le Ju walking towards her angrily, could it be that he was here to complain about Lehua and the Li family?
Chu Yueqing's brows furrowed slightly, "Lejun, pay attention to your attitude!" ”
"Attitude?!" Le Jun had already walked over, and the thirteen-year-old boy was only as tall as Chu Yueqing at this time, wearing a well-fitting brocade robe, his black hair was all tied up, although he was excited, his face was still the same, he said, "My attitude is not good, and it is better than you pretending to bully my mother!" My mother used to say that you, like your mother, are used to acting, but I still don't believe it.
I didn't expect you to insult your mother's reputation in front of your father and King Cheng like this today! ”
"What do you say? Insulting your mother's reputation? Chu Leqing snorted coldly and said, "Lejun, I will make it clear to you today, I don't care about some small actions you and Lehua made in the past." But in the future, if you dare to frame me again, I will never let you go.
And my mother, it's not for you to denigrate! ”
"Shame on you!" Le Jun hurriedly said, "When did we frame you, obviously you did something wrong, and you still relied on my mother!" Go, you come with me to my father, and I will tell my father all the bad things you have done. ”
As he spoke, Le Jun was going to pull Chu Yueqing's sleeve to find Le Hou.
"You let go," Chu Yueqing broke away and said, "I'll go myself." ”
Le Jun looked at Chu Yueqing suspiciously, thinking: What trick is she going to play?
"But are you sure you want to confront your father?" Chu Yueqing asked.
"Of course, don't try to play tricks, I won't let you go!" Lejun
"Tricks?" Chu Yueqing looked at Le Jun, carefully recalled the details of the relationship between her and him in his mind, and finally found that this cheap brother had really not done anything to hurt her except for hurting her in his mouth.
So, Chu Yueqing calmed down and said, "Don't worry, I won't." If you still insist on going with me to find your father after listening to what I am going to say. Then I'll go with you. ”
Le Jun hesitated for a moment and said, "Say it." "He wouldn't believe her anyway, so why not let her talk about it.
"Okay," Chu Yueqing decided to show the demeanor of the eldest sister and educate her crooked brother well, so she first asked Mozhi and Uncle Luo to wait for her in the backyard first.
Mo Weaving was reluctant to leave, but was dragged away by Uncle Luo.
"Uncle Luo, I want to go back, what if the princess is bullied?" Moori was anxious to go back.
"Don't worry." Uncle Luo looked at the flourishing woods not far away, and said, "The third young master is different from the mother and daughter, the third young master is still like grandpa, little girl, you and the old man are waiting here quietly, and the princess will come over in a while." ”
――
Looking at the half-grown Le Jun in front of him, he will inherit his father's throne in the future. There are frequent wars in Daqi, maybe he will go out to fight in the future, but now a good child is going to be raised crooked by the Li family, Chu Yueqing sighed, and said seriously: "Since you think I deliberately said this in front of my father and King Cheng, then why do you think I did this?" ”
Le Jun was stunned for a moment, and replied directly: "What other reason, you just want to harm my mother and make her bear the reputation of harshly criticizing her daughter-in-law." ”
"yes, that's what I thought." Chu Yueqing replied, "Do you think she didn't criticize me?" ”
"Of course not." Le Jun subconsciously saved and defended the Li family.
"No?" Chu Yueqing continued to ask, "No?!" Think about what you and Lehua have done to me in the past ten years? You know it in your heart, so I won't state it all.
Think again, before I married the Fifth Prince. In addition to Dongmei, there is only one Xia Xiang by my side. You are not young anymore, when you went out, you heard that the concubines of the Houhou Mansion only have two maids?
Well, even if I don't like to be close to the maids. Then let me ask you again, have you seen today's Granny Li before? When your mother gave her to me, she was the most capable mother-in-law.
Just think about it, if Granny Li is really capable, even if she is an undercover agent sent by your mother to my side. I wouldn't have sent her back so blatantly! ”
Le Jun was not stupid, and he felt that it made sense when he heard Chu Yueqing's words, but he was still biased towards his mother and sister in his heart, so he said, "You are clever and eloquent!" ”
"You can not believe me." Chu Yueqing looked at him fixedly and said, "But you have to learn to distinguish between right and wrong." What I am saying is true or false, you have to have the ability to discern between what is true and false. You are the eldest son of our Hou Mansion, and you will inherit your father's throne in the future, and you will support the entire Lehou Mansion. In addition to relying on emotion, you must also be rational.
Lee is your mother, but she doesn't always do the right thing. Lehua is the sister of your mother's compatriots, but you can't guarantee that her experience is not black. ”
Le Jun frowned when he heard this, and was about to refute, but when he heard Chu Yueqing's next words, he was stunned for a while. (To be continued)
