Chapter 334: The Past

Hearing the Queen Mother ask about this, Chen Borui's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly responded: "The noise in the city has disturbed the Queen Mother...... This is the fault of the sons, and the queen mother is also asked to punish him. ”

Both the government and the opposition and the people praise the son of today as the most filial person.

Chen Borui is not the biological son of the Empress Dowager Gao, but he was raised by the Empress Dowager Gao. Even if there is no blood relationship, the two are like mother and son, Chen Borui's service and care for the Queen Mother has been done to the extreme, and he is extremely filial, and he will never lose to any filial son in the world. This love of feedback belonging to the royal family has always been a good story among the people.

The voice of "Queen Mother" was indeed sincere.

Empress Dowager Gao sighed: "The emperor doesn't have to blame himself, you have every opportunity, how can you manage everything?" Some movements are fine, as long as there is no chaos, the mourning family still thinks that this palace is too boring. ”

Chen Borui knew the temperament of the queen mother when she was young, and he was not surprised by these words at all.

Empress Dowager Gao frowned and said, "I heard that it was the prodigal son of the Xu family who caused it?" ”

The queen mother, who has lived in the deep palace for a long time, is not a frog at the bottom of the well guarding one acre and three points of land, how can she not have her own news channels? Even if she didn't want to pay attention, such a big gossip would reach her ears sooner or later.

Chen Borui replied: "After returning to his mother, this matter is indeed related to Xu Jiren, but he is the bitter master, and someone robbed the bride on the street when he was welcoming his relatives. ”

Empress Dowager Gao nodded lightly, and said, "The one he wants to marry is the girl of the Xia family." ”

Chen Borui let out an "um".

Empress Dowager Gao slowly stood up. The palace maid on the side was about to go up to help, but was preempted by Chen Borui, who rushed to the front in three steps and two steps.

"Is Xia Honghan confused, how could he marry his daughter to the disciple of the Xu family?"

Although Chen Borui didn't dare to look at the Empress Dowager Gao who was speaking, he also knew that her face must be full of disgust at this moment.

He knew that the Queen Mother hated Xu Jiren very much. If it weren't for the kindness of the Xu family to the first emperor, the queen mother would have driven Xu Jiren out of the capital early in the morning.

"The eyes of the mourners are not good, but their hearts are like mirrors. Xue'er of the Xia family...... Everyone said that she was very good-looking, and she had seen her before leaving for Beihu and her relatives, and she was indeed a good child who was gentle and virtuous. Want to marry such a good girl? Is he Xu Jiren worthy! ”

Chen Borui still didn't dare to say anything. It is no secret that Empress Dowager Gao likes Xia Hanxue, and many palace people know that the Empress Dowager once praised the girls of the Xia family.

After returning from Beihu, Xia Hanxue was summoned by the Queen Mother again. If it weren't for the sensitive status of the Xia family, she might have become the godgranddaughter of the Queen Mother.

The more she spoke, the more angry Empress Dowager Gao couldn't help but aggravate her tone: "If the person who robbed the kiss is really Xue'er's lover as rumored outside, then it is reasonable to rob her." ”

Chen Borui couldn't help but smile bitterly: Looking at the world, only the Empress Dowager Gao can say this, right?

Speaking of which, he can't help but take a stand. After a little deliberation, he finally said, "What the queen mother said is very true. However, Xu Jiren's marriage was married by Ming Media, and robbing relatives on the street in broad daylight did violate the law, no matter how you say it, it is a little violent......"

Before he finished speaking, Chen Borui's face suddenly changed.

He let go of his hand in a panic and bowed down in front of the queen mother, nodded his head and said: "The child has no words, and he inadvertently bumped into the queen mother, he really deserves death!" ”

The Empress Dowager Gao, who had never heard of it, stood straight in place. The gloom on her face gradually dissipated, replaced by remembrance and longing, as if someone had touched something deep inside her.

Most of the Empress Dowagers of Da Rui were the daughters of the Central Plains family, only the Empress Dowager Gao was different, because she came from the Gao family, which had stood in the southwest since the previous dynasty.

The southwest is a land of mixed ethnic groups, which has always been ruled by large and small tusi, and the imperial court has little influence in the local area. Since the previous dynasties, the emperors of successive dynasties have not given up their ambition of annexing the southwest and directly administering the local area by the imperial court, but whether it is changing the land or sending troops to fight, they have all encountered a nose of dust in the end. As a last resort, he could only continue the Tusi system and let the local Tu emperors go unchecked.

And the Gao family is one of the hardest bones to gnaw on.

The ancestors of the Gao family were originally Han Chinese, who took refuge in the south due to the war, but under the management of generations, they became a local clan, and were given the hereditary Tusi by the previous dynasty. By the time they arrived in Da Rui, the Gao family was already a force in the southwest that no one dared to despise.

And the first emperor was a well-known carefree prince back then. When he was young, he liked to travel around, and he didn't want to do any errands, let alone be kept in captivity in the capital like other princes to enjoy the glory and wealth. The royal family originally wanted to put him on the right track, but after repeated attempts failed, he had to go.

To put it bluntly, several of his brothers are either brilliant or full of strategy, and no one expects him to inherit the throne. In this case, let him live this leisurely life, wouldn't others save a lot of heart?

So, the first emperor continued to play everywhere, until he met the young and beautiful Empress Dowager Gao in the southwest, and fell in love at first sight.

At first, Miss Gao couldn't look down on this handsome boy who followed her all day long with a salivating face like a fart. Who are you? Isn't it great to dress politely and be able to chant the wind and make the moon, can you stay away from me?

The people of the southwest are fierce, and it is common for them to move knives on the street if they don't agree with each other, and the high girl who was born in the family of Toast and is loved by thousands of people is a little pepper. For this reason, she raised a knife to intimidate the emperor, but the man always ran away with a hippie smile on his face, and came back ghostly, and he couldn't get rid of it, he was purely a scoundrel.

finally used the power of the family to blow this inexplicable person away, and Miss Gao heard another bad news: her parents were going to marry her to another young son of Tusi!

She didn't like that stupid, simple-minded, big-faced guy at all. For this reason, she cried and protested, not only put on a posture of swearing not to marry, but even really went on a hunger strike, but how could a mere girl's family be the opponent of the iron law of the Tusi family's marriage to each other for thousands of years?

When she was helpless, she thought of the handsome boy who stalked her, and she only felt that even this "toad" had become cute.

On the day of her wedding, she made a big fuss like all reluctant brides, but she was still sent to her husband's house.

Just when Miss Gao was discouraged and thought that everything was doomed, a loud cry interrupted her thoughts:

"The team is over, leave the people behind!"

Then, she saw that the "toad" was holding a long sword, and with a tearful eye, he led a dozen or twenty people into a team of more than two hundred people.

Aren't you here to rob your relatives? Okay, just follow the locals!

For the sake of his sweetheart, he came to work hard!
