197 What's new

As soon as Chen Houyun entered the gate of Chen's house, he happened to meet an attendant.

He sideways out of the way.

There was a crimson servant inside, and it turned out to be the great eunuch of the fifth grade, and he was personally sent out by the second master Chen.

Chen Houyun didn't speak, stood on the side of the road and waited for a while, and when he saw Second Master Chen turn around, he said, "Second Uncle, is there an accident in Chaolu Palace?" ”

Second Master Chen was not surprised by his question, nodded, and said with a smile: "Houyun is back?" Can the journey go smoothly? ”

Chen Houyun and Second Master Chen walked back together, and replied as they walked: "The waterway is very smooth. The second uncle's business has been handed over? ”

Second Master Chen looks much more elegant than Master Chen, and in his gestures, he is born with a kind of celebrity style (the taste of flow. He has just passed, but he looks very young and very attractive.

While the two of them were talking, the person who reported the news had already gone to the inner courtyard, and Mrs. Chen quickly came out, standing on the steps and looking at Chen Houyun, with tears in her eyes.

Chen Houyun no longer talked to Second Master Chen, knelt down in his robe, and kowtowed to Mrs. Chen: "Mother, my son is back." ”

"Hurry up!" Mrs. Chen burst into tears, took three steps and two steps down the steps, and helped Chen Houyun up.

Chen Houyun is a head taller than Mrs. Chen.

Mrs. Chen looked at him with a sunny face, wiped her tears, and said with relief: "Yes, I look taller again." ”

Chen Houyun cleaned up his clean spirit, and Mrs. Chen was not the hypocritical mother, seeing that he was doing well, she didn't say anything like "suffering". Her son returned safely, with a handsome face and full of energy. What else is she not satisfied with.

So, she immediately wiped away her tears and rejoiced.

When relatives meet, it is another lively meeting.

It wasn't until after the lively family banquet in the evening that Old Man Chen called Chen Houyun to the small study, personally took out a box from the dark compartment, opened the box and took out a thin booklet, and handed it to Chen Houyun.

The booklet is very thin, it looks like a dozen pages, and it is densely packed with fly-headed letters. It's the year. Old Man Chen wrote down the big and small events that happened in the DPRK and China.

Chen Houyun took it with both hands. didn't look at it immediately, but asked the previous question: "Grandfather, what happened to Chaolu Palace?" That big eunuch should be from Chengqian Palace, why did he come? ”

"Before, Chaolu Palace used the excuse of missing relatives during pregnancy. Need to be accompanied by your birth mother...... The emperor decreed. I want to give the Chen family a knighthood. Give the Qing family a five-grade lady. Because I gave the Qing family a concubine book before, the holy decree was not fulfilled. The emperor valued the Chaolu Palace, so he connected the Qing family to the palace. The Qing clan said that she was already the lady of the Fifth Rank Decree and left her to serve in the Chaolu Palace. ”

Old Man Chen's face was normal, and he slowly spoke: "Yesterday, there was a palace maid who talked a lot in Chaolu Palace, so that the noble concubine heard the truth...... The concubine did not stand it, so that she had a miscarriage in June. After she woke up, Qing probably hanged herself because of self-blame. ”

Chen Houyun heard it very seriously.

"Just now, Eunuch Huang came on behalf of the emperor to inform my Chen family to welcome the corpse of the Qing family back to the Chen Mansion." Old Man Chen said: "I refused, saying that I was only willing to help take care of the aftermath." The Qing family is already free, and is no longer part of the Chen family, so of course the affairs after death cannot be done in the Chen Mansion. ”

Old Man Chen didn't even know what that woman looked like.

He hadn't even seen her in twenty years. Now that she is gone at this time, to be honest, Old Man Chen has no touch in his heart.

It seems that he is a little ruthless.

But he has never regarded the Qing family as a person related to him, and now he is a stranger, he sighed and sighed, does it seem a little false? In this world, there are people dying all the time. If every stranger had to sigh and sigh, then he wouldn't have to do anything else.

Only the Chen family can stop in the Chen Mansion. This is a matter of principle and cannot be accommodated.

Chen Houyun understood what Old Man Chen meant.

He bowed slightly, thought for a moment, and asked, "How is the noble concubine now?" ”

"It's sad and it's weak. I heard that I can't get pregnant anymore. Old Man Chen said: "In order to appease and compensate her, the emperor has decreed that she will be named Concubine Shun, and the seal that the queen has already used can only choose a day to make up a concubine ceremony." Oh, I almost forgot, just now Huang Gonggong said that if the Chen family is unwilling to welcome back the Qing family, the emperor will give him Mrs. Xianhua in return. I have no problem with that. ”

Now there are not many people who know that the Qing family is no longer the Chen family.

Therefore, Chen Guifei, who was born by the Qing family, is still the daughter of the Chen family.

If the Qing family is named Mrs. Xianhua, the Chen family will definitely no longer hide the news that it has nothing to do with the Chen family. And with such a toss, Chen Guifei's background is even more embarrassing.

If Chen Guifei was still sensible, she would not have chosen this way.

There is an aunt who was released from the house as her biological mother, and it is obviously more impressive than being a concubine. After all, there are more concubines born by aunts, but there are very few aunts who have given birth to daughters and have been kicked out of the house!

The biological mother has been kicked out of the house, how can the remaining concubine hold her head up!

Chen Guifei has always been rational and would never make this choice. Unless she's crazy from this blow!

Chen Houyun knew his aunt, so he was not very worried about Chen Guifei's choice. He was thinking about something more important.

"Grandfather, grandson feel that this whole incident seems to be driven by someone else." Chen Houyun pondered and said, "What this person means should be that he wants to see your concubine break with our Chen Mansion. ”

Old Man Chen was slightly stunned and said, "What you said makes sense. ”

The Chen Mansion never gave Chen Guifei any support, but he never deliberately held her back. All along, the two parties have been at peace.

But as soon as this incident came out, Chen Guifei would hate the Chen family without saying it.

"Now the emperor only has two concubines under the queen's knees. The Liao family was prosperous. Chen Houyun said: "My mother mentioned in the letter that the queen mother had intended to marry the Chen family and the Liao family several times......"

If the marriage fails, Liao's heart will inevitably be unhappy. Maybe you will retaliate because of this.

Chen Houyun was eighty percent sure in his heart that it was the Queen Liao who played a very important role in this matter. Don't worry, wait for him to collect some more information, and he will be able to make a clearer judgment.

"Although the war is imminent, there are only two highnesses in the palace, and now that the little prince is gone, it seems that the inner palace is empty...... What the grandson means, next year or the spring of the year after that, the inner palace should add some new people to extend the bloodline for the royal family. The general election is time-consuming and labor-intensive, but the small election is okay, but it is done through a flower viewing party, and it really doesn't cost anything. (To be continued......)
