Chapter 56: The So-Called 'Family'

kgg

Entering (diàn), there were suddenly a few whispers of joy in the inner room, and Chu Yunshen's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Su Guifei and Hongyi are also there?

Walking into the inner room, I saw Chu Hongyi lying on his father's book case with a brush and writing something on rice paper.

His father stood beside his (shēn) with a brush and corrected something for him.

"Here, and here."

Chu Hongzhen took the brush and circled it on the rice paper a few times, then patted Chu Hongyi's head lightly, and said with a smile: "Do you understand?" ”

"Yikes! Yes! ”

Chu Hongyi shouted happily, "Father is so powerful." ”

"It's my emperor who is smart, and he can get through it at one point!" Chu Hongzhen said proudly.

Su Guifei stood aside, looking at them with a smile on the corner of her mouth while grinding ink for their father and son.

This scene is really a mother's love and filial piety.

Chu Yunshen sneered, it seemed that he had disturbed their family of three.

"Yikes! Fourth brother! ”

Hearing the footsteps, Chu Hongyi raised his head suddenly, and after seeing Chu Yunshen surprised, he quickly threw down his pen and ran to Chu Yunshen, bent down and saluted, "Why are you here?" ”

He came to greet his father, as if he had come here as a guest.

Chu Yunshen's dark eyes flashed with a touch of (qg), and he quickly pressed it down again, he took a step forward and bowed down to Chu Hongzhen, and said, "My son, please give my father and the emperor a greeting." ”

After the salute, he got up again (shēn), bowed to Su Guifei (shēn), and arched his hand and said, "I have seen Guifei Niangniang." ”

"Which dog minion let you in! Get out! ”

Chu Hongzhen glanced at Chu Yunshen coldly, then picked up the pen and continued to draw something on the rice paper that Hongyi had just made, "Hongyi, you still need more practice here." ”

"Father!"

Chu Hongyi glanced at Chu Yunshen, then shrugged his head and walked back to Chu Hongzhen, looking down at his father and the emperor circled the side of a few big characters for him.

"Hongyi, you see that you are frizzy again, and you will learn more from your fourth brother in the future."

As she spoke, Concubine Su hung the brush that Chu Hongyi threw on the table on the pen stand in front of the table.

"Okay." Chu Hongyi just raised his head and answered.

Immediately, his father's angry voice sounded: "What is there to learn!" ”

Chu Hongzhen snorted coldly, and then slapped the pen in his hand on the table, "Hongyi is more than a hundred times stronger than him." In addition to being angry, what else will this rebel do! ”

"Your Majesty, you're talking angrily again."

Concubine Su Guifei approached Chu Hongzhen (shēn), raised her hand and smoothed Chu Hongzhen's breath and said, "Where is Hongyi comparable to King Jing, King Jing is only three years older than Hongyi, but you see that he is brave and good at fighting, and his famous generals all rely on him, and now he has solved a big case." The common people all praised him. ”

"What a brave fight! He's clearly a reckless soldier! Saying that, Chu Hongzhen pointed at Chu Yunshen and criticized him bitterly: "If it weren't for me, I would have called him back to Beijing earlier!" The people in the frontier have long been displaced by him and have no home. The diplomatic relations that I have maintained for 20 years will be destroyed at the hands of this rebel! ”

Chu Yun's dark eyes flashed with a hint of pain, but he still stood there with no expression (qg).

"Why don't you go quickly, what are you doing standing there!"

Chu Hongzhen glared at Chu Yunshen.

Chu Yun hid the (qg) in his eyes, bent down and clenched his fists towards Chu Hongzhen, and said flatly, "Erchen retreats." ”

And Cheng Xiaoxiao, who had already jumped into (diàn), looked at the scene in front of her, and her lungs were about to come out.

Just now, when no one was looking, she jumped in through the wide open window.

After entering, she kept huddled behind a one-man-tall vase erected in the corner of the wall, observing the shape of the (qg) in (diàn).

A screen blocked her view, and it split the room in half.

She crept behind the screen and saw a woman in yellow standing next to a man in a dragon robe.

The woman (shēn) was wearing a yellow smoke yarn embroidered with a five-colored gold silk and a multicolored phoenix, and she was praising Chu Yunshen to the emperor at this time.

Her skin is like condensed fat, her eyebrows are like ink drawings, and her hair is full of pearls.

It's just that the more Cheng Xiaoxiao listens to it, the more she feels that her praise sounds weird, and it always feels like there is something in her words.

When Cheng Xiaoxiao jumped out (diàn), she glanced at the woman in yellow who was grinding ink with her back to her, and this woman was really a master of fanning the flames.

With a single sentence, the originally calm emperor suddenly became so angry at Chu Yunshen.

Out of Lin De (diàn), Chu Yunshen never spoke.

Xiao Wu saw that the prince was unhappy, but he didn't dare to say anything, but kept chasing after the prince (shēn).

Chu Yunshen walked towards the palace (diàn) that he had dreamed of many times in his dreams.

When Xiao Wu saw that the prince was going to his mother Concubine Shen's Yihe Palace, he glanced at Chu Yunshen with some concern.

There are all the painful memories of the prince.

He clearly remembered that when the lord's mother was still alive, because she was empathetic, she could always understand the emperor's heart.

The emperor sometimes stayed overnight at the Jardine Palace for two nights in a row.

Once this matter (qg) is known to the two mothers, the lord's mother will be punished by them.

They always find some reason to make things out of nothing, and punish the lord and the concubine for kneeling outside, and kneeling for a day.

And the prince who would be the prince (shēn) would kneel with Concubine Shen because he felt sorry for his mother.

Whenever his mother fainted on her knees, the two mothers were afraid that something would make a big fuss, so they let his mother go back (diàn).

The queen and Su Guifei's maternal clan have great power, the queen's grandfather is the first emperor's concubine, and the queen's father is the concubine on the pilgrimage, and it is possible that he will be the prince and the concubine in the future.

And although Su Guifei's mother's clan is not as powerful as the queen, she is fortunate to have an elder brother Su Feiying who is a general who protects the country.

When the first emperor was seriously ill, he summoned the saint to enter the palace, and passed the throne to the saint, who knew that the eighth prince actually sent troops to surround the palace, and the first emperor of the palace passed the throne to him.

At the most critical moment, Su Guifei's elder brother Su Feiying entered the palace with 20,000 elite soldiers, fought bloodily for several hours, and saved the first emperor and the saint who was guarding next to the first emperor at that time.

After the saint ascended the throne, he permanently referred to the Eighth Prince's Mansion as the Zongren Mansion, and named Su Guifei's elder brother Su Feiying as a general who protects the country.

At the same time, Su Guifei was also promoted to the imperial concubine, and became an existence under one person and above ten thousand people among the concubines.

But the mother and concubine father of the lord are just a six-rank servant.

How could the saint offend the queen and Concubine Su because of their mother and son.

One can imagine how difficult the life of the mother and son in the palace is.

Cheng Xiaoxiao followed them (shēn) all the way, and the more she walked, the more desolate she became, and she couldn't even see the figure of a maid guard.

Where does Chu Yunshen want to go?

Just when Cheng Xiaoxiao was puzzled, Chu Yunshen suddenly stopped at the door of a desolate palace (diàn).

She looked up at the plaque on the palace (diàn), which read exactly the words 'Yihe Palace'.

The plaque is full of dust and cobwebs, and it looks like no one has lived and cleaned it for many years.

With a squeak, Chu Yunshen pushed open the heavy (diàn) door.

"Lord, be careful!" The dust fell from the brush, and Xiao Wu hurriedly took off his robe and protected it in front of Chu Yunshen (shēn), "What are these minions in the palace doing to eat!" No one has come to clean it for so long! ”

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Wu knew that he had said the wrong thing again, and immediately silenced.

Chu Yunshen ignored him, walked into the (diàn), and looked around with his eyes, all the furnishings in the (diàn) were the same as when the mother concubine was still there.

He gently pushed open the cobweb-strewn door, his eyes slightly red as his eyes fell on a glass bottle on the table.

A child's innocent voice faintly sounded in his ears.

"Mother, mother, you see this is a firefly caught by a child for you, it's beautiful. The child put them in a glass bottle, do you see that it is very bright? ”

"Shen'er, did you sneak out of the palace again!"

"No, no, mother, look at it, put them on the table, and the whole room will light up. That way, we don't have to look at the dog minions and ask them for candles! ”

"Lost!"

"Why? Mother! Don't, kids! Hongyi wanted it just now, but the child didn't give it to him! ”

"What! Hongyi knows that you are out of the palace? ”

"It's okay, mother, Hongyi is much better than the other princes. He wouldn't tell anyone. ”

"Silly Shen'er, you promise your mother that you won't secretly leave the palace in the future! And you can no longer get close to Hongyi. ”

"Why the mother!"

"Promise the mother!"

"Okay."

Chu Yunshen walked into the room, and then picked up the glass bottle, the young man was naïve at that time, thinking that the fireflies could be alive all the time, and they could bring some fun to his mother's dull (ri) son.

Most of the fireflies died in the second ri, and the third ri, and there was no light at all.

In a fit of rage, he threw the glass bottle down, but the concubine stopped him, saying that the glass bottle looked good on the table (tg), and since then, the glass bottle has been placed here.

Why did he catch fireflies for his mother at that time?

He remembered that one of them heard a chat with a slave beside the mother concubine (shēn), saying that the mother concubine had sewn new clothes for him in the dark at night in order to save candles, and her eyes were red.

Only then did he learn that the group of dog slaves in the Internal Affairs Office had been ordered by Concubine Su to deduct his mother's share, and he originally wanted to complain to the saint, but the concubine stopped him and didn't let him go.

She kept telling him that if you don't fight, you fight.

Until now, he didn't understand how the concubine, who had always been indisputable, was fine the day before, and she would get seriously ill the next day.

"Lord!"

Xiao Wu saw that Chu Yunshen had been staring at the glass bottle in his hand in a daze, and shouted with some concern, "My subordinates asked people to clean up here." ”

"No need."

Chu Yunshen put the glass bottle on the table, then looked around the entire room, and said coldly, "Bring a basin of water." ”

"Huh?"

Xiao Wu was stunned.

Chu Yun Shen Zhuan (shēn) glanced at him, and Xiao Wu immediately understood what he meant, and bowed (shēn) and said, "Yes!" The subordinates will do it. ”

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Wu had already walked out of the palace with a congratulatory gift (diàn).

By the time Xiao Wu put the congratulatory gift on the carriage and appeared with a basin of rags on it, Chu Yunshen had already swept the cobwebs in the diàn with a broom.

"Lord! Let's let the subordinates come down. ”

Xiao Wu immediately put the basin on the table and naturally took the broom from Chu Yunshen's hand.

Chu Yunshen loosened the broom, walked to the basin that Xiao Wu put on the table, wrung out the rag with both hands, and then started to wipe the table.

"Lord!"

When Xiao Wu saw it, his heart was about to be frightened, "How can you do these things!" ”

As he spoke, he came to snatch the rag in Chu Yunshen's hand again, Chu Yunshen did not let go of his hand, raised his eyes and glanced at Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu was so frightened that he immediately let go of his hand.

"本王 (shēn) is a son, cleaning the room of his mother and concubine, what can he do?"

Chu Yunshen took the rag and carefully wiped the dressing table used by the concubine before.

"The subordinates have overstepped." Xiao Wu stepped back and hurriedly picked up a broom to help Chu Yunshen clean up.

Chu Yunshen's fingertips slid over the bronze mirror that the concubine had used before, reflecting Chu Yunshen's reddish eyes.

"Mother, why! Why doesn't the father believe the child? Does he only like Su Guifei! I don't like children! ”

"Shen'er, why doesn't your father like you? Have you forgotten that he gave you a brush last time? ”
