Chapter 222: Marriage

"But the history books say that many emperors and princes were killed by people around them."

Chu Yongwang looked up at him, "There is an emperor who was almost strangled to death by the palace maid. ”

Jia Jingjing really wants to burn all the history books.

But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was also afraid of people when he was younger, so he didn't read these books.

"The slave will protect His Royal Highness the Prince, don't be afraid, don't be afraid."

Jia Jingjing patted him on the shoulder.

"The second emperor brother also said that he would protect me."

Chu Yongwang said, "But he himself ...... You can't protect yourself. ”

Jia Jingjing remembered the events of that day: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was in Jingwei Courtyard that day, but what did you see that you were afraid of?" Chu Yongwang nodded.

Jia Jingjing later heard a little rumor, saying that the second prince and Miss Xiao were crushed by the little prince that day, and the matter couldn't be stopped, Concubine Xiao Xian was going to marry the two, and the queen mother had just agreed.

But that day, Jia Jingjing felt that things were not simple.

"If His Royal Highness the Second Prince says anything to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can say it to the minions."

Jia Jingjing hoped that he would not be suffocated.

Chu Yongwang still didn't say anything, just walked forward, he recognized Concubine Xiao Xian's palace, and the two were just about to arrive at the door, and before they could report, they heard angry voices from inside.

"Can't I marry me?!!" The porcelain cup shattered, and the panting sound was so rough that it penetrated the courtyard wall.

"Sit down for me!" Concubine Xiao Xian's old-fashioned voice was then scolded, "If your wings are stiff, you will fly, and you will use this palace as your stepping stone?" When Jia Jingjing heard this voice, where did she dare to go in, and hurriedly wanted to hug Chu Yongwang to leave, but Chu Yongwang sped up his steps and threw him away to enter the door, and the eunuch saw it and hurriedly asked An to report, the noise in the room instantly subsided, and Jia Jingjing hurriedly followed.

Chu Yongwang strode into the room, glanced at Concubine Xiao Xian, and bowed his hand but did not greet her.

"Isn't this His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

Concubine Xiao Xian seemed to smile, "I must have come to find Yongnian." ”

Chu Yongnian's face turned pale, and he leaned over to look at Chu Yongwang: "What's wrong?" Why are you here? ”

He wiped the corners of Chu Yongwang's eyes, and Chu Yongwang was silent.

"Mother, I'll take Jiu'er out to play."

Chu Yongnian hurriedly made an excuse and led Chu Yongwang out of the palace, Jia Jingjing felt that she couldn't stay here at all, so she seized the opportunity to hurriedly escort the two princes out.

When he arrived in the Imperial Garden, Chu Yongnian stopped and pulled Chu Yongwang.

"Father-in-law Jia, why did you bring Jiu'er to my place today?" Chu Yongnian was a little uneasy.

"Back to His Royal Highness the Second Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to meet you."

Jia Jingjing said truthfully.

"Jiu'er ......" Chu Yongnian was a little helpless, "In the future, my brother will not be in the palace, where are you going to find my brother?" ”

"Isn't the royal brother in the palace anymore?" Chu Yongwang was afraid.

"I'm married, so naturally I'm not in the palace."

The beginning of the eternal year.

Chu Yongwang was caught off guard, but he understood a little: "Is it because the imperial brother is sick?" Chu Yongnian was puzzled: "What is sick?" ”

"On that day in the Jingwei Courtyard, was the imperial brother sick?" Chu Yongnian didn't know how to answer for a while.

Chu Yongwang was very serious: "Brother Huang is not like that on weekdays. ”

"That's not the ...... of illness" Chu Yongnian was full of anger when he said it, he didn't want to lose his temper in front of Chu Yongwang, so he thought about it for a long time.

"That's because I took a very special medicine for my brother by mistake."

Chu Yongnian smiled bitterly and held his face, "That medicine won't always make the imperial brother look like that, I'll be fine after a while, don't worry." ”

Chu Yongwang seems to understand but not understand.

Jia Jingjing understood.

That day, Chu Yongnian was afraid that he did not have a personal affair with Xiao Yaohua and was exposed, but was drugged and put into it.

"Then why does the imperial brother have to leave the palace?" Chu Yongwang still didn't understand.

Chu Yongnian was a little choked up and couldn't speak.

"Because I made a mistake."

He said, "Your sister Yaohua has it, and you are responsible for her and the child in her womb as a brother...... You...... You'll understand later. ”

Jia Jingjing suddenly felt that he was like being caught in the cracks, which was really miserable.

Xiao Yaohua is Concubine Xiao Xian's niece, and the reason why she drugged and asked these two to promote their marriage was obviously to ensure the power of the Xiao family and consolidate the supporters behind Chu Yongnian.

Even though the emperor and queen may know the true intention of this farce, but when the raw rice is cooked and cooked, Concubine Xiao Xian's purpose has been achieved.

The emperor also had to give an explanation to the girl of his family in order to stabilize the powerful Xiao family, so he agreed to this family business.

Whether Chu Yongnian wants to or not, he has to "kiss and kiss" his mother's family.

Chu Yongnian was not even qualified to complain, so he could only pretend to be satisfied.

Xiao Yaohua is noble and beautiful, a person in the world, it is not a loss to marry her, but it is cold and warm in it, and outsiders can't know it.

Chu Yongwang buried his head in hugging Chu Yongnian's neck: "Brother Huang, don't go." ”

Chu Yongnian was helpless.

"Brother Huang...... The imperial brother ......," Chu Yongwang called him, "can you not leave Jiu'er." ”

Chu Yongnian raised his hand and patted him: "Don't be afraid, the imperial brother will often come back to see you." ”

"Brother Huang...... The imperial brother ......," Chu Yongwang called him, "can you not leave Jiu'er." ”

Chu Yongnian raised his hand and patted him: "Don't be afraid, the imperial brother will often come back to see you." ”

Chu Yongwang was not satisfied with this answer, shaking his head and sobbing.

It's not that he doesn't understand the meaning, the eldest brother leaves the palace and lives in the palace, and almost only returns to the palace to say goodbye during the New Year's holidays, and not everyone can see it.

He thought that the second emperor brother was still young, and he would leave after getting married, and at that time he was also older, so he would no longer be afraid of so many people, he would no longer be unable to deal with so many things, and he could even leave the palace...... However, the separation came too soon.

Chu Yongnian patiently accompanied him and said softly: "In the future, my brother will always run back, don't be annoyed." ”

Jia Jingjing has been guarding from the side, watching the little prince lying on the shoulders of His Royal Highness the Second Prince for a long time, looking a little confused from crying, and still not letting go of his hand, Chu Yongnian was also sad, buried his face in his neck, and frowned.

…… The second brother and sister-in-law are not together by wishful thinking, but because of conspiracy.

Hearing this, Chu Yuewan couldn't accept it for a while.

The second sister-in-law in her impression does not look like a scheming person at all.

Maybe everything was a conspiracy of Concubine Xiao Xian, who deliberately deceived both of them.

But Gonggong Jia swore that if he hadn't greeted Xiao Yaohua in advance, it would have been almost impossible, after all, that person had to be tricked into it by Xiao Yaohua alone, and Xiao Yaohua had to feed him the medicine himself, not to mention that he finally spoke out loudly and soberly, so that the matter was exposed.

Even Chu Yongnian, who had been practicing martial arts for a long time, couldn't stand incoherently under the effect of the medicine, how could Xiao Yaohua call out his name in a straight voice after using the medicine? Although Jia Jingjing didn't see much, it was enough.

"But the second emperor brother later respected the second emperor's sister-in-law like a guest, could it be ...... They reconciled? "The early moon is late and I can't understand the complicated process.

Jia Jingjing shook her head regretfully: "Her Royal Highness the princess is still too simple, if they really reconcile, will Prince Su wander for many years and refuse to go home?" "It turns out that all the debauchery of the second emperor brother is revenge on the second emperor's sister-in-law and this marriage.

The early moon night had to admit it.

The strange atmosphere of seeing their family in Prince Su's Mansion before, and the seemingly intimate but intimately separated actions between the second emperor brother and the second emperor's sister-in-law have all been explained.

What about the royal brother? "Grandpa Jia, what happened?" Chu Yuewan asked.

Jia Jingjing said eloquently: "Later, although His Royal Highness the Second Prince got married, he refused to return to the palace, and he was either in the gambling house or in the Qinglou all day long, and he didn't go back to take a look until the princess gave birth.

At that time, he really fulfilled his promise and often returned to the palace to accompany the emperor, who still relied on him.

But...... Recently. ”

When Chu Yongwang was nine years old, the eldest prince of Zhaohua Hall rebelled and burned down Zhaohua Palace.

Chu Yongnian stepped forward to rescue the prince, but he was seriously injured, and after being in bed for a long time, he suddenly seemed to be a different person, either drunk or soaked in a woman's pile, and completely became a fat and powdery waste.

It was as if some tight string had broken from that day, and the shackles that had trapped the beginning of eternity were instantly loosened.

Chu Yongwang was extremely disappointed.

From childhood to adulthood, there is no place where the second emperor brother is not envied by him, Chu Yongnian's talent, martial arts, knowledge, and even the attention of his father are all unattainable existences that Chu Yongnian is blushing but out of.

He has always regarded him as an idol, longing to be praised by the other party, and even hiding under the other party's wing when he encounters danger.
