Chapter Eighty-Eight: Mother and Son (Second Watch)
The emperor was angry when he heard that Chu Yan and Chu Chen did not investigate the case yesterday, and ran outside the city to meet Chu Xian, and later learned that the two of them had gone to Wang's house, and his anger suddenly disappeared, and he couldn't help but carefully scrutinize the king of the earth.
Although the emperor is full of intrigues and tricks, but now he is not much different from a bare-bones emperor, it seems that he is not as good as the first two years of his accession to the throne.
He deliberated for a long time, and honestly found that even if he knew that Wang Anzhi was not a good thing, he couldn't help him. Even if he doubted and speculated that he would not allow him, it would be useless.
He is in An Huajin's body, this year, has spent countless manpower, influence and courtiers' respect, and now, his majesty, if he says ten words, I am afraid that it is not as good as his son Chu Yan to say a word.
The more the emperor thought about it, the more he hated and angered, the more he thought about it, the more powerless he became, and in the end, he was a little self-contained.
Gonggong Zhang stood aside, looking at the emperor's appearance, he had already shown the old state of Long Zhong, and sighed very much in his heart, His Majesty is a person who can't be distressed, because everything is done by himself. Nanyang Wangfu has been loyal for generations, and the first emperor was safe and sound, only after he ascended the throne, he constantly guarded against suspicion and calculated to settle down, from the old to the small, and now even the daughter of the An family is calculated, and finally stealing chickens is not a loss of rice, who is to blame?
On the evening of the same day, although the emperor was depressed, he still turned over the sign in the Chuxiu Palace, and it was ridiculous all night.
Zhang Gonggong was speechless under the cold wind at night, watching the palace lanterns fluttering by the wind.
Today, the emperor missed the early dynasty, but for the courtiers, the emperor can go to the early dynasty.
In the early dynasty, there was also no Wang Anzhi and Gu Qingyan.
After the morning court, the emperor was really sleepy, and went back to the palace to make up for sleep, and after he woke up, he heard that the eldest prince Chu Xian had returned to Beijing, Chu Yan and Chu Chen welcomed him into the city outside the city, and did not go to the prince's mansion, but went directly to the seventh prince's mansion to live.
The emperor became angry again, "Chu Xian returned to Beijing and did not enter the palace to thank me, it is really unruly. There are also Chu Yan and Chu Chen, who ran out of the city to meet him for two days? He committed the big crime of making weapons privately, and he didn't return to Beijing for meritorious service, so what was there to welcome? ”
Gonggong Zhang whispered, "The days in the forbidden place are hard, His Royal Highness rushed back to Beijing, and it was a snowy day, presumably because he was afraid of rushing into the palace and bumping into His Majesty, so he didn't enter the palace, and he rested for one night, and he will enter the palace tomorrow." ”
What he thought in his heart was that since the eldest prince didn't want to see His Majesty, he also wanted to see the queen mother, and if there was nothing too important to slow him down tomorrow, he would definitely enter the palace.
The emperor thought about it, and his anger subsided a little, "Has there been any progress in the case of Chu Yan and Chu Chencha?" ”
"I haven't heard of it."
The emperor's face was ugly, "I now regret not killing Zhang Zaifu, but now I let him run away." ”
Zhang Gonggong was silent, thinking that Zhang Zaifu and His Majesty, the ministers and gentlemen, are both forbidden to toss, Zhang Zaifu's life is also very hard, he has been tortured by His Majesty for so long, and he has not died, but now he has been robbed, and His Majesty, after tossing for so long, he is not tired.
Chu Yan has been very concerned since he came back from the rebellion in Wufeng Mountain, and he and Chu Chen went out of the city to greet Chu Xian for two consecutive days, which was even more concerned, so on this day, Chu Xian returned to Beijing, and did not return to the Great Prince's Mansion, but moved into the Seventh Prince's Mansion, and the news soon spread throughout the capital.
The courtiers thought that it was rare for the eldest prince and the seventh prince to be such good royal brothers.
On the second day, as Gonggong Zhang guessed, Chu Xian entered the palace early in the morning.
When he entered the palace, not long after the beginning of the early dynasty, Chu Xian went directly to Fengqi Palace.
The queen heard yesterday that Chu Yan and Chu Chen had received Chu Xian, and it was not early at that time, she thought that Chu Xian would definitely enter the palace early this morning, so she got up early and waited for Chu Xian.
The queen didn't get up late, but she didn't expect Chu Xian to come earlier, just after dawn.
Hearing the movement outside, Mama He took a look and was immediately happy, "Niangniang guessed well, the hall came down really early." ”
The queen smiled, "He, if he hadn't met his father at Yan'er's mansion yesterday, he would have entered the palace yesterday to see the palace." Go out and meet him. ”
Mama He should be, and immediately walked out quickly.
When Chu Xian saw Mama He, he shouted with a smile, "Mama." ”
Mama He's eyes were red, but she didn't forget the rules, and gave Chu Xian a salute, "Your Highness, you are finally back, Niangniang went to bed early yesterday, saying that she would get up early today and wait for you, please come inside." ”
Chu Xian nodded, his steps were a little faster, and he entered the main hall.
The queen came out of the inner room and saw Chu Xian, her eyes were also red, but her tone was smiling, "Xian'er is finally back." ”
"Queen Mother!" Chu Xian took a step forward and knelt in front of the queen, his eyes were also red.
"You kid, what are you kneeling on? Get up quickly, it's cold on the ground. The queen stretched out her hand to help Chu Xian and looked at him carefully, "Well, I have grown taller and lost a lot of weight, but my appearance has not changed." ”
Chu Xian choked slightly, "The child is alone, although he is confined, no one treats him badly, and his life is fine, but he often misses his mother and seventh brother." ”
The queen pulled him to sit down and sighed, "Although no one treats him harshly, it is better to be at home." In the past three years, what diseases have fallen on the bones of the body? After you came back, you went to live in Yan'er's mansion, and he asked the imperial doctor to give you a pulse of peace? ”
Chu Xian smiled, "The child's body is fine, the seventh brother wanted to invite, but the child didn't let him." ”
"How's that going to work? You kid, since you were a child, you have a bitter heart and don't want to talk about it, don't think I don't know, Your Majesty, that person, is very harsh, he has been staring at you all these years, he won't let you have a good time. The queen turned around and instructed Mama He, "Go and ask Imperial Doctor Chen to come." ”
"Yes." Mama He immediately ordered someone to invite Imperial Doctor Chen.
Chu Xian smiled helplessly, "The child is really fine." ”
"If you are really fine, I will only rest assured that Imperial Doctor Chen will tell me that it is okay after seeing it." The queen said, "You are still young, but you can't fall ill." ”
Chu Xian could only give up, "Listen to the queen mother." ”
The mother and son talked for a while, and Chu Xiyun's happy voice came from outside. ”
Chu Xian smiled, "It's me." ”
Chu Xiyun rushed in from outside, with a happy face, "I heard that the eldest brother came back yesterday, right?" If it hadn't been for the queen mother who brought me back from my brother's mansion, I would have seen my eldest brother yesterday. ”
The queen took over and said, "She went to see her father, and she didn't return to the palace in Yan'er Mansion, and when I went to visit my father, I pulled her back, and her boss was not happy." Don't think I don't know what's going on in this girl's head, she wants to sneak away to Nanyang. ”
Chu Xiyun stuck out her tongue and said in her heart that she didn't want to sneak away to Nanyang, but wanted to marry Nanyang.
Chu Xian smiled, stretched out his hand and rubbed Chu Xiyun's head, "The third sister has grown up and changed her appearance. ”
In the past, Chu Xiyun walked around and had the aura of a proud woman in the sky, but now those feelings of arrogance are completely gone, and some are just playful and cute.
Chu Xiyun tilted her head and looked at Chu Xian, "The eldest brother is still the same as before, and he hasn't changed much." ”
Indeed, in Chu Xian's body, time seems to stand still, and the three-year confinement has not changed him as a person, just like a polished jade, which makes people look more and more comfortable.
Imperial Physician Chen came soon, and after seeing the salute, he took Chu Xian's pulse.
The Empress and Chu Xiyun both looked at Imperial Physician Chen.
After a while, Imperial Physician Chen withdrew his hand and said with a smile, "The eldest prince is very healthy. ”
The queen suddenly relaxed, "That's good." ”
Chu Xian smiled.
What he didn't say was that in the past three years, even if His Majesty was staring, Gu Qingyan could arrange for someone to go in, every month, someone would ask him for a safe pulse, in the first month of entering, he was indeed a little unwell, but later he was conditioned by others, plus he practiced every day, his mentality was relaxed, and his body was naturally disease-free.
Today's early dynasty, I still haven't seen Wang Anzhi and Gu Qingyan.
After the emperor left the early court, he asked Gonggong Zhang, "What about Chu Xian?" Can you enter the palace? ”
Gonggong Zhang replied, "Back to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness entered the palace early in the morning, and now he is in Fengqi Palace." ”
"He is filial to the queen." The emperor snorted, "You go to the Wang family and the Gu family again and ask, have they recovered from their illness?" Don't use your illness as an excuse to fool me, you don't know what to do in private. ”
Father-in-law Zhang should be.
The emperor also instructed a little eunuch, "You go to Fengqi Palace and tell Chu Xian to let him come to see me." ”
"Yes." The little eunuch answered and went immediately.
Chu Xian, the empress, and Chu Xiyun hadn't seen each other for three years, and there were a lot of things to say, but before they could say enough, the emperor sent someone to invite, and Chu Xian could only stop talking and stand up.
The queen lowered her face coldly and instructed, "If he doesn't give you a good face, you don't have to give him a good face." Your Majesty is the Ninety-Five, and it is true that he is your father, but first of all, he has to show the appearance of being Your Majesty and his father, so that his children can respect him. ”
Chu Xian nodded, "The child knows." ”
