Chapter 128: Indifferent and Ruthless
The second master couldn't see his wife so out of shape, so he called her back, turned to Zhu Chengqian and said, "Please also ask the eldest brother to call the shots." ”
The eldest lady watched the play coldly and felt ridiculous, but her husband had already given her a look and reminded her not to interject easily, and she was happy to watch from the wall.
Zhu Chengqian's face was serious, and he asked his son in a deep voice: "You have always been close to your second brother, if you know anything, just tell your second uncle." ”
"Back to my father's words, a few days ago, for the emperor's hunting, I had official dealings with my second brother, and I don't often get together on weekdays, I really don't know what the second brother does." Zhu Rong bowed to the second master and said, "The second uncle may go to the yamen of Guanglu Temple to ask, his colleagues know better." ”
The second old man looked gloomy and said coldly: "He put a private house to raise a woman, isn't it because you helped from the side, the woman's whereabouts are suddenly unknown, and she is always picked up." ”
Zhu Rong calmly asked his uncle: "Really?" ”
But listening to his father's dry cough, Zhu Rong understood, restrained his emotions and stood with his hands down.
Zhu Chengqian said to his younger brother: "This kid has been honest since he was a child, and he will never lie, but if he remembers something, I will immediately send someone to tell you." I will also send someone to look for it, we have to go to Guanglu Temple to do something, if Rui'er doesn't go on an errand again, you can't ask the boss to blame it, you have to be careful and thoughtful. ”
The second master was dissatisfied with his brother in his heart, but he never tore his face in front of him, got up and said: "Please also ask the eldest brother to help the brother find the evil obstacle back, if Rong'er thinks of something, please bother to send someone to inform him." ”
Zhu Chengqian bowed his head and persuaded: "Don't be too anxious, take care of your body, and so are your younger brothers and sisters, take care of your body." ”
The second lady was already crying without tears, and she was afraid of her husband, so she looked at Zhu Rong with pleading eyes when she left, and was taken away by her husband.
"In the middle of the night, it doesn't stop." When they left, the eldest lady got up lazily, looked at the father and son, and snorted, "You have all eaten and drunk, let's rest early, I have watched so many plays during the day, and I still sing at night?" ”
Zhu Chengqian got up and said, "I'll explain a few words to my son, and you go back to the room first." ”
The eldest lady reminded faintly: "People forced away a son, don't be in a hurry, don't worry about it, and force your son away." ”
Zhu Chengqian ignored it and coldly ordered Zhu Rong: "Come with me." ”
The eldest lady looked at the father and son, and left one after the other, knowing that Zhu Rong couldn't get rid of it.
But for her, it's just a dispensable thing, even if Dongyuan is dead, she won't raise her eyelids.
Originally, it should be the same for her husband, but Zhu Chengqian must have other things in his heart that he can't let go, and his son, who has been carefully cared for and raised, finally begins to learn to disobey him, can he not panic.
Mother Wang came in from outside the door and asked quietly, "How is it?" ”
The eldest lady helped her to the inner room, and said gloatingly: "Let's make trouble, when will this house be peaceful?" ”
On this side, Zhu Rong followed his father to the study, and as soon as he entered the door, he was ordered to kneel, he grew up, although he was pampered by his father in the palm of his hand, but he was not punished and beaten, so as not to hurt his self-esteem.
Zhu Chengqian stood with his hands in his hands and glared at his son who was kneeling on the ground: "It seems that not only are you pretending to be stupid in front of your second uncle, but now you don't plan to tell me the truth?" ”
Zhu Rong looked innocent: "My son really doesn't know." ”
Zhu Chengqian said angrily: "You were raised by me, I won't be able to see through your mind, and dare to lie?" ”
"If the father has to say that, the son can't argue."
"You went to the money bank a few days ago and exchanged a few hundred taels of silver for a silver ticket, but is there such a thing?"
Zhu Rong was stunned for a moment, and now he didn't have to deny it: "It's ......"
Zhu Chengqian asked: "What about the silver ticket, bring it to me to see." ”
Zhu Rong said casually: "Lend it to a colleague, and use it for emergency ......" Seeing that his father raised his hand to fight, he lowered his head in the end.
Where is Zhu Chengqian willing to start, the second room loses a son, as long as there is no trouble in the court, he doesn't care at all.
But he couldn't see that his son was not honest with him, he wished Pingrui to abandon everything and run away from home, and he couldn't keep Qi Rong'er gone that day, once the father and son were separated, it would be difficult to make up for it.
"It's time to beat it up, and you'll be honest." Zhu Chengqian said, "Blame me for spoiling you too much, spoiling you to the point of lawlessness, and daring to help your second brother run away from home." ”
Zhu Rong hung his head and was silent.
Zhu Chengqian said: "Get up, stand and talk." ”
Zhu Rong instead kowtowed to his father and said, "Father, don't worry, my son will not run away from home, and I will not leave you and my grandmother, as well as my younger brothers and sisters." ”
Zhu Chengqian was overjoyed in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it, and said angrily: "Don't sell me well, you can be honest, where did Pingrui go?" ”
Zhu Rong shook his head: "My son really doesn't know, since the second brother has the heart to leave this family, he won't tell anyone." Father, don't ask me again, I don't know anything. ”
"Bastard thing!" Zhu Chengqian scolded and scolded, kicked his son up again, and said angrily, "Since you really don't know, then don't say anything else to others, one is sorry for your second uncle, which hurt my face, and second, you also betrayed your brother." ”
Zhu Rong breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "After all, my father is the most enlightened." ”
Zhu Chengqian hated and said: "No matter how enlightened I am, I can't allow you to be lawless, you remember, between our father and son, anything can be said, even if there is something that cannot be run in for a while, there is always a way to solve it." If you dare to run away from home, I will find you all over the world and break your leg with my own hands. ”
Zhu Rong was not afraid, and stepped forward to support his father: "After eating wine today, don't be angry, it's better for your father to go to bed earlier." ”
Zhu Chengqian loves and hates his son: "When did you learn to be so flamboyant, it's very annoying, you are the son of a family, don't learn to be like a ruffian." ”
Zhu Rong honestly sent his father back, and after closing the door and retreating, he was really relieved.
In any case, this level is over, in fact, the father and son tacitly know that his father knows that he is involved in this matter, but his father can always understand him, compared to the second brother, who is never cared for by his parents and never understands what he is thinking, he is much luckier.
But from his father, he can also feel indifference and ruthlessness, he doesn't care about the disappearance of his nephew at all, he is not separated from the second and third uncles, but their business is already someone else's business.
In the Qingqiu Pavilion, Fuyi sat alone under the window, and Fang Cai Citron told her that when she was looking in front of the door with others, she saw that the third prince was called to Xinghua Hall, and he was full of worries, afraid that the eldest master would be angry.
But she was too worried, the eldest man didn't care about his nephew's life or death at all, but he just dealt with his brother and taught his son a few lessons.
At this moment, Citron and the others were under the door, and when they saw Zhu Rong walking back, they hurriedly ran to tell the young lady: "The third prince has gone back, and it's good to see." ”
Fu Yi sighed: "More trouble is still to come, you hurry up and turn off the lights, don't look at the excitement, and appease Yunzhi tomorrow." ”
Let's say that Dongyuan couldn't find his youngest son last time, but there were some books, paper and pens missing in the study, and the second master still cared about decency and didn't dare to make too much noise.
This time, the important things in the bedroom were gone, and there were so many people inside and outside the East Garden, and no one knew when the second son would move out.
Zhu Chengye knew in his heart that his son was really lost now.
No matter what decency or indecency, he sent people around overnight to look for him, opened the joint and opened the west gate, until noon the next day, there was still no news.
In the yamen of Guanglu Temple, Pingrui had a good resignation and walked upright, although the troubles in the court were lifted, but Zhu Chengye and his wife were even more desperate.
The second lady couldn't afford to be sick, and washed her face with tears all day long, and yesterday she was still at the birthday banquet of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she looked at a few girls, and she was looking forward to her son's marriage after the summer, so that he could get married, but he didn't expect that when he turned around, his son was gone.
Ping Luo was busy looking for her younger brother, and she couldn't take care of her family, the young lady was inevitably angry with her mother-in-law, and then the second lady was very sick, and she had no intention of tossing her again, and in a blink of an eye, two days passed.
In the Qingqiu Pavilion, everything in the study is as usual, but Yunzhi has not come again, this day Pingjue left, after the sisters came, they saw that the second sister's desk was still empty, and they were not happy.
"The second lady is sick, and she can't do without people around her." Fuyi comforted the younger sisters, "In a few days, the second sister will come back." ”
Huizhi asked weakly: "Is the second brother still coming back, my mother said that he ran away with a woman." ”
Fu Yi sighed that the third lady had no taboos, and she didn't miss that her daughter was still so young, she said gently: "The second brother will definitely come back, he is an adult, he has his own opinions, and when you grow up, you will naturally understand." ”
Yingzhi asked her, "Does Sister Yan understand?" ”
Fuyi didn't dare to say that she had wanted to run away from home and take her mother away from her grandmother's torture and abuse, but she hadn't even gone out of Kishu Castle for more than ten years.
Now that he has come out, his future is still bleak, and his mother is still under the obscenity of his grandmother.
Fu Yi said: "I don't understand it either, but I just read a few more books, and my people are sophisticated, not much better than you." Alright, take your heart, it's time for class. ”
Huizhi's little man said sadly: "My mother gloated, I am even more sad, why should she be so happy to see the accident at the second uncle's house, aren't we a family?" ”
"Hui'er, come." Zhu Rong suddenly appeared in front of the door and beckoned his sister to come over.
When the girls saw the third brother, their faces lit up, and they all gathered around and asked anxiously, "Is the second brother still back?" “
Zhu Rong comforted his sister on the one hand, looked at Fuyi on the other hand, and gave each other a comforting look, and his heart was steady.
He pulled his sisters to sit down and said, "Second brother's affairs, don't take it to heart anymore, just think like this, the man is ambitious in all directions......"
Yingzhi interrupted him and said, "Sister Yan said that girls can also aim in all directions. ”
