The Empress Dowager ordered that no matter whether it was King Wu Chu Haoyan or King Yong Chu Haoxuan, they all put down what they were doing and rushed to Cining Palace, and it didn't take long for two carriages to drive into Cining Palace, which were King Wu and King Yong. Chu Haoyan is already a peerless master of a half-step grandmaster, his sideburns have turned gray and white after several years of retreat, and he has a burly body, and he has a kind of spirit that looks at the world while standing with his hands in his hands. Compared with King Wu, ten years have passed since the First World War in Mobei, Chu Haoxuan no longer has the fierce aura of the battlefield, he always has a smile on his face, and his body has gained a lot of fortune, and he seems to be a rich man.

Seeing the second brother Chu Haoyan, Chu Haoxuan smiled even more happily, hugged his fists and said: "I haven't seen you for many days, the second brother is even more powerful, hehe, if I further rein in the qi, my Chu family will have another grandmaster." Speaking of this, he seemed to think of something, the smile on Chu Haoxuan's face became brighter and brighter, and then said: "Xiao Qi has also stepped into the realm of heaven and man for ten years, and I don't know where he has come, if he also breaks through the realm of grandmasters, a family of three grandmasters, it is unprecedented and unprecedented, and it is enough to be passed down for thousands of years." ”

Glancing at Chu Haoxuan, Chu Haoyan opened his mouth and said: "Xiao Qi has realized his own way, it will not be difficult for him to take that step in the future, but the third child, your martial arts have been wasted over the years, your skin is loose and your face is blue, and the essence has been loosened, so you should pay attention to moderation." ”

Hearing that the second brother Chu Hao was so direct, Chu Haoxuan seemed a little embarrassed, and finally laughed to cover up the past, and opened his mouth to say, "Why didn't I see it?" However, what the second brother said is definitely true, and I will pay more attention and pay more attention to the third brother in the future. Second brother, please, the queen mother called our brothers into the palace today, it must be for Xiao Qi to catch the wind, but this trip to Jiangnan is also hard for Xiao Qi. ”

Chu Haoxuan has rarely asked about the rights and wrongs of the court over the years, but as the younger brother of His Majesty, Prince Chu, he still knows a lot of things, such as the change in Qi'an was planned by the heavenly assassins, and the interception in Qujian Gorge.

Walking towards Cining Palace, Chu Haoyan nodded and said: "A few of our brothers, except for the eldest brother, I am afraid that Xiao Qi has been the busiest in these years, but he is young, and he should also do his part for my Chu family." The country of my Chu family has its own male son of the Chu family, and the aftermath is lingering! ”

These words were spoken by Chu Haoyu before the burning of Emud, and thinking of the scene that day, Chu Haoxuan showed a look of memory on his face, his original intention was to bear the notoriety of slaughtering the city with fire, but Chu Haoyu's words snatched this notoriety away, and those words were also lingering! With a sigh in his heart, Chu Haoxuan quickly laughed again, how could he not know that Chu Haoyan's words were also said to himself, after all, he has been doing his job all these years and has been eating, drinking and having fun all day long, but he is also very good. Thinking of this, Chu Haoxuan didn't answer, and followed with a smile.

When the two walked into Cining Palace, the Queen Mother was amused by the two children, Chu Hongchen and Chu Taihe, and saw Chu Haoyan walk in and said: "Second brother, you have added a good grandson, much stronger than Yuan Jing, and you know how to laugh if you are stupid." ”

The Queen Mother said that Chu Haoyan was stunned, and Chu Haoxuan, who also listened, couldn't help laughing, but at this moment, the Queen Mother glared at him and said: "Third child, how long have you not entered the palace to greet the old body, have you forgotten me, the queen mother?" ”

In an instant, the smile on Chu Haoxuan's face had already dissipated, and he knelt down with a depressed face and said, "After returning to my mother, Erchen has always wanted to invite you to come, but I am afraid that you will be angry, so I dare not come." The more you don't come, the more you dare not come, there are already and ...... The queen mother, the son knows that he is wrong, and he will enter the palace every day to greet the queen mother. At the end of the words, Chu Haoxuan directly knocked his head on the ground, and didn't dare to say more, if he said too much, he would definitely lose, and at the same time ripped off Chu Haoyan's clothes without revealing a trace, obviously asking him to help solve the siege.

At this moment, Chu Haoyan also knelt down and bowed: "Erchen knocks to see the queen mother, the queen mother likes Taihe, it is Taihe's blessing, as long as the queen mother is happy, the son-in-law sends Taihe into the palace every day to accompany the queen mother." ”

Hearing this, Chu Haoxuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, over the years, the Queen Mother likes children the most, especially Chu Hongchen, who misses him after not seeing him for a day, and almost treats him as Xiao Qi.

As Chu Haoxuan expected, the Queen Mother opened her mouth and said, "Taehyuk is good, let him accompany Chen'er more in the future." Alright, get up and serve tea. While speaking, the Queen Mother put her eyes on Chu Hongchen again, showing a trace of tenderness on her face, and said: "Seeing the two of them, the old body remembered Xiao Qi and Yuan Jing, when they were a little naughty, the whole palace was not at peace, and people came to complain about the old body every day." ”

Standing up, Chu Haoxuan smiled at Chu Haoyan, a slightly mischievous smile was to say that if he saw it, he knew that he wanted to say this, but in an instant, Chu Haoxuan dispersed and sat on the side with a smile. After the First World War in Mobei, Chu Haoxuan left the army, and his temper did not want to ask about the rights and wrongs of the court, so he became a prince and prince with nothing to do, so he provoked the queen mother to reprimand, and because of this, Chu Haoxuan entered the palace to ask for peace less often. At this moment, in order not to attract the attention of the Queen Mother, Chu Haoxuan rarely spoke, but Chu Haoyan occasionally interjected, and a smile appeared on his solemn face.

Because he didn't dare to speak, Chu Haoxuan felt that time passed very slowly, and he drank tea without a sip, and when he drank the fifth cup, a voice sounded at the door, saying: "The Holy Lord has arrived, and His Royal Highness King Xiao has come to see you." ”

Hearing the loud shouts, except for the Queen Mother, the rest of the people stood up, and even Chu Hongchen and Chu Taihe, the two children, also put away the smiles on their faces and looked at the door with a serious face.

Seeing Chu Haoran in a bright yellow dragon robe walking into the main hall, Chu Haoyan and Chu Haoxuan, the two princes, Chu Hongchen and Chu Taihe, immediately knelt down and bowed: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live!" ”

Glancing at everyone, Chu Haoran smiled and said: "It's all my own family, no need to be polite, hurry up, second and third." While speaking, Chu Haoran strode to the soft couch and bowed to the Queen Mother: "Haoran to see the Queen Mother." ”

Looking at the white-haired and languishing queen mother, Chu Haoyu clearly noticed that she was much older than when she left Beijing, and couldn't help sighing in his heart, and hurriedly stepped forward to bow down and said: "Xiao Qi to see the queen mother, may the queen mother be healthy and smile often." ”

When she saw Chu Haoyu, a light lit up in the Queen Mother's dim eyes, and her thin face was full of wrinkles, and she smiled: "Okay, good, when I see your brothers, my old body will be happy, happy." Don't bow and sit. Ran'er, you sit here, Xiao Qi, you sit here, let the queen mother take a good look. ”

Under the arrangement of the Queen Mother, Chu Haoran and Chu Haoyu were on both sides of the Queen Mother. After looking at Chu Haoyu for a moment, the Queen Mother shook her head and said: "I'm thin again, didn't the queen mother tell you not to work so hard, but you are disobedient when you are young." Just now, the old body was still here and told Hongchen and Taehyuk that you, Xiaobo, and Xiaojing made trouble in the palace when you were young, and you will be back soon. It's good to come back, it's good to come back, it's cold, and you can rest at home. Speaking of this, the Queen Mother turned to look at Chu Haoran and said, "Ran'er, during this time, don't let Xiao Qi go out again, come to the queen mother every day to say goodbye, and the third child, you don't dare to say a word when you see the old body." The old body scolded you, and I felt uncomfortable, and one day in the future, I couldn't scold you......" The words were not finished, and they were interrupted by Chu Haoran.

Looking at the old queen mother, Chu Haoran showed a trace of tenderness on his face, but he pretended to be displeased and said: "Queen mother, all the brothers gathered together today to greet you, the queen mother should be happy, why do you say these frustrating words?" The child doesn't want to hear it. ”

"Yes." Chu Haoyu took the mouth, held the empress mother's thin palm and said with a smile: "Empress mother, Xiao Qi went to Jiangnan this time, but he brought you a lot of good things, food, clothing, and use, and specially ordered someone to go to Dongting Lake, this is Biluochun fried by my uncle, do you want to taste it?" ”

Since the retirement of the Sun family, the queen mother rarely gets news from the Sun family, and now she suddenly heard that this is the Biluochun fried by the younger brother Sun Yiyang himself, and a smile appeared on her face, and said: "Okay, good, Xiaoqi, you come to make a cup of tea for the queen mother." It's been a long time since I've heard from Yiyang, how is he? At the end of the words, the Queen Mother showed a look of reminiscence.

With a chuckle, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and said: "Uncle is fine, drink tea and drink, read and do right, chat with one or two old friends in his spare time, and be happy like a fairy." While speaking, seeing that his beloved son Chu Hongchen was looking at him expectantly, Chu Haoyu showed a touch of tenderness on his face, and said with a smile: "Father also brought a lot of things to Chen'er, come, father hug." ”

Chu Hongchen is a seven or eight-year-old child after all, and he really misses Chu Haoyu after not seeing him for a few months, but when he heard him hug, he pouted and said, "Father, Chen'er is eight years old and has grown up." ”

Seeing Chu Hongchen's expression, the Queen Mother, the Holy Lord Chu Haoran, and the Martial King Chu Haoyan couldn't help laughing, and Chu Haoxuan's laughter was the loudest, deliberately teasing Chu Haoyu and saying, "Xiao Qi, what about you coaxing the child?" Hearing no, Chen'er has grown up. ”

At this moment, Chu Haoyu also realized that he had said the wrong thing, and said with a smile: "No matter how old he is, he is a child, but he is regarded as Tong'er, Tong'er's little naughty child, and he likes his father to hold him the most." Today, it is rare for the queen mother and several brothers to get together, so Xiao Qi will make a cup of tea for everyone. ”

Just when a few people were laughing, Xiao Shunzi had already sent a tea set and put it on the table. Patting the back of the queen mother's hand, Chu Haoyu got up and walked over, and looking at Chu Haoyu's back, the queen mother's dim eyes were covered with a layer of mist, and she said to herself: "My little seven has grown up, but no matter how big he is, he is still a child!" ”

Feeling the queen mother's palm, Chu Haoran said with a smile: "In the past, Xiao Qi was naughty and got into trouble all day long, but Haoran remembered that the queen mother was talking about growing up quickly, and now that she has finally grown up and is sensible, the queen mother should be happy." ”

The Queen Mother nodded, and held Chu Haoran's palm harder, and said: "The old body should be happy, you brothers, you are all worthy of the old body's pride, the old body is happy, if Tianfeng can see this scene, it would be great." ”

In an instant, Chu Haoran's faces turned cold, but at this moment, the Queen Mother's slightly narrowed eyes seemed to be silent in her own world, and then said: "These days, the old body often dreams of Tianfeng, and sees him smiling at the old body, and the old body wants to catch it, but he can't catch it, so it's gone." ”

Listening to the Queen Mother's whispers and looking at her old face, Chu Haoran's four brothers were silent, even if the world was in hand, they couldn't change the years, and they couldn't guarantee her peace for a hundred years. Closing his eyes and taking a deep breath, Chu Haoyu opened his eyes and regained his clarity, concentrating on making tea.
