Volume 1 103 Calf Guarding
Lying on the bed, Chu Haoyu opened his eyes slightly and closed them again, and yawned greatly at the same time. or the movement was too big, Chu Haoyu only felt a pinprick pain in his head, and tears flowed from his eyes.
After lying on the bed for a long time, Chu Haoyu was much more awake, but his head hurt even more. Taking a long breath, Chu Haoyu endured the discomfort and sat cross-legged, secretly trying to force out the strength of the wine.
The moment Chu Haoyu sat up, the maid who had been waiting for him woke up, didn't speak, and hurriedly walked out, but when she came back, there was a kind old lady beside her, not the Queen Mother.
Tianyang decided to run a big week, Chu Haoyu felt better, and then opened his eyes and looked at the queen mother and said, "Queen mother, why are you here?" After a pause at this, Chu Haoyu shook his head and said in words that were not very clear: "I drank too much last night, and I forgot to go into the palace to ask the queen mother!" While speaking, Chu Haoyu got up and wanted to say goodbye to the queen mother, but was held down by the queen mother.
Holding down Chu Haoyu, the Queen Mother said slowly: "Don't do these false courtesies with your mother." While speaking, the Queen Mother sat down beside Chu Haoyu, gently patted Chu Haoyu's back and said, "Drink less wine in the future, see if it makes you uncomfortable, drink a bowl of sobering soup first." ”
There is a maid who serves the decanting soup, and it has been cooled. drank a bowl in one go, but Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and asked, "Queen Mother, why are you here?" ”
Looking at Chu Haoyu, the Queen Mother said: "I heard that you were drunk and unconscious last night, so my mother came to see you without worrying." Besides, this is your new home, and your parents want to come over to see if you are comfortable. ”
With a grin, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and said: "Queen Mother, you are too worried, Xiao Qi lives the same wherever he lives now, but I have lived in a small hut on the mountain for three years." ”
Suddenly, the Queen Mother couldn't help but smile and said, "Also, I've hurt you, are you better now?" Seeing Chu Haoyu nodded, the Queen Mother continued: "Xiao Qi, get up and eat something, are you hungry?" ”
Hearing the queen mother mention hunger, Chu Haoyu really felt that his stomach was very empty, and he smiled: "I'm really hungry." By the way, Queen Mother, what about Xiao Jing? As he spoke, Chu Haoyu had already stepped down from the couch.
"You two!" With a sigh, the Queen Mother also stood up and said, "Xiao Jing hasn't woken up yet, let him sleep for a while." ”
When the maid was waiting for Chu Haoyu to wash, someone had already served breakfast, all light appetizers. Seeing that Chu Haoyu ate very well, a smile appeared on the queen mother's face, and she said with a smile: "Xiao Qi, you have a good appetite, but it's a pity that you can't get fat?" ”
With a light snort, Chu Haoyu shook his head and said, "I don't want to gain weight, how ugly it is to be fat." ”
Listening to Chu Haoyu's words, the Queen Mother smiled again and said slowly: "You were very cute when you were fat, and your mother thought that you would be a fat person when you grew up, but you became thinner and thinner as you are now." Eat more in the future, not to mention gaining weight, at least like your eldest brother. ”
"yes, got it!" While speaking, Chu Haoyu buried his head in eating again.
Seeing Chu Haoyu eat the last bun, the Queen Mother beckoned and said, "Go, take some more." ”
Raising his head, Chu Haoyu hurriedly said, "Queen Mother, don't do it, it's enough." While speaking, Chu Haoyu picked up the bowl and drank the last mouthful of porridge, and then said: "When I was in the mountains, Uncle Da taught me not to waste. ”
The Queen Mother nodded, but said: "The mountains are bitter, but don't settle for that at home, eat whatever you want, let the next person do it, don't wronged yourself." ”
After a pause at this, the Queen Mother's face calmed down, and then said: "In the future, you will also be the head of the family, as the head of the family, you must have the majesty of the head of the family, you must never be stingy with the reward, and you must not be soft on the punishment, don't be like when you were in the palace, everything is very arrogant and unorthodox." ”
Seeing the helpless look on Chu Haoyu's face, the Queen Mother sighed lightly and said, "It's also to blame my mother and Tianfeng, who love you too much, everything depends on your temperament, and now you don't even know how to manage the family." My mother first asked Ah Fu to take care of you for a while, but he is too old to be comprehensive, and you have to choose a group of loyal and reliable subordinates to take care of the palace for you. ”
Nodding, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and said, "I wrote it down, but, Queen Mother, Fu Bo came to my house, what should you do over there?" ”
Shaking her head disappreciatively, the Queen Mother said: "My mother is old, and I don't care about any big and small things in the palace anymore, as long as you can be safe, my mother will rest assured." Speaking of this, the Queen Mother paused again, and then said: "My mother came here today, also for this matter, you all come in!" ”
When the Queen Mother's words fell, Ah Fu led the three of them in. One person is quite tall, but his face is withered like an old farmer in the mountains; One person is slightly fat, with a square head and a large forehead, and he is very kind when he smiles; The last person was smiling and dressed in green clothes, like a teacher.
Seeing the three of them, Chu Haoyu was a little surprised, and opened his mouth to say: "Queen Mother, isn't he the old Zhang Tou of Cining Palace who organizes flowers and plants?" I also remember you, the one who manages the bookkeeper, and you, I seem to have seen you in the imperial dining room? Seeing that the three of them nodded at him, Chu Haoyu knew that he was not mistaken, but he looked at his mother with doubts and asked, "Queen Mother, what is this ......?"
The Queen Mother did not answer, but said to the four of them: "You all come to meet the new master." ”
When the Queen Mother's words fell, the four of them immediately knelt down, bowed to Chu Haoyu respectfully, and said, "The old slave has seen the master. ”
Without waiting for Chu Haoyu to say something, the Queen Mother waved her hand directly and said, "Okay, step down." ”
When the four of them left, Chu Haoyu couldn't help but ask, "Queen Mother, what's going on?" ”
Seeing that Chu Haoyu's face was full of doubts, the Queen Mother said: "They are all domestic slaves of the Sun family, they married into the Chu family with their mothers, and later entered the palace and followed their mothers for nearly fifty years. There were eight of them back then, but now there are only four of them left. Speaking of this, she let out a sigh, and the Queen Mother continued: "Of the four who died, only one died of illness and old age, and the other three died ...... assassination."
Without waiting for the queen mother to finish speaking, Chu Haoyu had already interrupted her, and asked with doubts: "Why, there are still people who make a move on the queen mother?" ”
Tapping her head, the Queen Mother said slowly: "A few years ago, it was a troubled time, Tianfeng fought for the world again, and my mother and mother have become a thorn in the side of some people, and all kinds of assassinations are endless, which is difficult to prevent, if it weren't for a few of them, my mother would have been gone a long time ago." If you haven't gone through troubled times, you won't understand that kind of life. ”
Hearing that someone actually wanted to assassinate his mother, a cold light flashed in Chu Haoyu's eyes, and he asked, "Could it be the Heavenly Thorn Traitor?" ”
The Queen Mother nodded and shook her head, opened her mouth and said: "There are shadows of the previous dynasty, and there are other forces, but they are all over. The reason why my mother tells you this is to know that although your identity is noble, it is also the best target in the eyes of some people, so you must pay attention to your own safety in the future. I handed over the four of them to you just to let them protect you......"
Interrupting the Queen Mother's words again, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and asked, "What about you, the Queen Mother?" ”
Seeing the eagerness in Chu Haoyu's eyes, the Queen Mother chuckled lightly and said, "My mother is old, and she stays in the palace all day, it's okay." It's out of the palace, the forbidden army, the guards and the dragon guard masters are casual, it's safe, Xiaoqi, you can rest assured. After a pause, the Queen Mother continued: "The four of them, each of them has an extraordinary career, if you have anything inconvenient to come forward, you can also hand it over to them." ”
Seeing that Chu Haoyu was stunned, the Queen Mother shook her head and let out a secret sigh, saying in her heart that she was indeed too fond of him, and Tianfeng protected him too well, but the result was that he had been crowned king but did not understand the world.
Seeing that the queen mother was sighing silently, Chu Haoyu became more and more confused, and couldn't help asking, "Queen mother, why are you sighing?" Also, I don't understand what I just said. ”
After a moment of silence, the Queen Mother had already made a decision, stared straight into Chu Haoyu's eyes and said: "Xiao Qi, there has been a saying since ancient times, you must not have the heart of harming people and the heart of guarding people, you are the prince of the court, you should know these things even more." Originally, the prince had 3,000 personal guards, but my mother pushed it down for you, and just asked Chu Zheng to select hundreds of people from the forbidden army and guards to protect your safety. You are too naughty and playful, you will definitely not live in peace after opening the mansion, my mother asked Chu Si to pick a few masters for you to protect your safety, but ......"
Speaking of this, she sighed lightly, and then the Queen Mother continued: "However, these people are all from the imperial court, and they are from Da Chu, as a prince, you should also cultivate some of your own cronies, so that no matter what you do, you can make it easy to call, and you don't have to worry about outsiders knowing." ”
Chu Haoyu is an extremely smart character, but he has never thought about this. After thinking for a moment, Chu Haoyu nodded and replied, "Queen Mother, Xiao Qi has written it down." ”
Seeing that Chu Haoyu's face was not so natural, the Queen Mother said with a kind face: "Xiao Qi, as a prince, the emperor is still your own brother, some things can't be avoided, but as long as you don't touch the bottom line, the world is up to you, you can be content!" ”
Under the gaze of the Queen Mother, Chu Haoyu finally laughed, opened his mouth and said: "Queen Mother, Xiao Qi knows that your Xiao Qi likes to play." By the way, the queen mother, didn't you say that you were looking for someone to teach me to play, it's been so long, why haven't you seen it yet? ”
Seeing Chu Haoyu's face stretched, the Queen Mother also smiled and said, "It's soon, you just wait patiently for a few days." ”
nodded, but Chu Haoyu couldn't help but ask: "Queen Mother, then you can always tell me who it is, don't hang my appetite anymore." ”
