Chapter 111: Father and son are suspicious
At this time, in the Qianqing Palace, a scene of father-son quarrels was being staged. "Do youβdare to kneel in front of your ancestors and swear that you are not involved in this?!" The Emperor's voice was already almost roaring, and it seemed that he was not lightly angered.
Sheng Xuanyuan, who was kneeling on the ground, straightened his body, and said coldly and stubbornly: "Those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid." Since the father has already convicted the son, what if the son-in-law swears a poisonous oath? β
"You!" The Emperor stood up from his dragon chair, his face flushed with excitement, and his chest slumped violently. A eunuch next to him hurriedly stepped forward to help him and said, "The emperor is angry, don't hurt the dragon's body because of anger......
"Get out!" The emperor's arm shook heavily, and the eunuch almost fell on his horse, but he finally stood firm, so he had to shrink his head and quietly retreat to the side.
I saw the burly figure of bright yellow slowly walk down from the throne, paced around the kneeling man below, and stood still in front of him.
Sheng Xuanyuan still held his head high, fearlessly meeting the emperor's gaze.
Looking at the firmness and determination revealed in those black eyes that were almost exactly the same as himself, in an instant, the emperor suddenly felt a little dazed. The unruly young man in front of him seems to have suddenly walked out of time when he was young. At that time, if I was suspicious, did I ever have such cold eyes? In the face of doubts, don't even bother to defend yourself a little more?
Father and son, the two looked at each other for a long time.
At this moment, a eunuch came in from outside and broke the silence: "Your Majesty, Concubine Chen Niangniang has something to ask to see." β
The emperor came to his senses and said to the eunuch, "Call her in." "Concubine Chen's request to see at this time must be related to the illness of the fourth child, and at the moment there is still a strong and twisted third child here. So the emperor pondered for a moment and then said to his son, "You...... Stand down. β
After kowtowing his head heavily, Sheng Xuanyuan got up and left without saying a word with a gloomy face. When I walked to the door of the main hall, I was taking a look at Concubine Chen, who was about to enter the door.
Seeing Sheng Xuanyuan's cold eyes shooting towards her like a knife, Concubine Chen couldn't help but shudder from the bottom of her heart. She hurriedly straightened her body, stood in place and planned to be saluted, not wanting that Sheng Xuanyuan's footsteps to stop at all, and walked directly past her! The moment they passed by, she even heard Sheng Xuanyuan snort disdainfully from his nose. Where did Concubine Chen, who has always been held by the stars, suffer such rudeness, she immediately blushed, and she was a little embarrassed for a while.
But Concubine Chen quickly recovered from her gaffe. Seeing that she paused slightly, she walked up to the emperor and saluted, and asked softly, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with the third prince?" β
The emperor had already seen this scene, and only sighed deeply and said, "He's competing with me." There was some weakness and desolation in her voice, but there was still a faint pride, and she heard the sourness in Concubine Chen's heart.
The emperor watched the son, who was most like him, gradually walk away with mixed feelings, and was stunned for a while before asking, "How is the fourth child?" Did you speak? β
As soon as she mentioned this, Concubine Chen's eyes filled with tears. I saw that she shook her head sadly, and said, "The concubine is here to see you for this." β
"Say it."
"Your Majesty, do you remember when Lord Lin Mubailin used a bottle of medicine to save your father and son?"
As soon as he heard that Lin Mubai was involved again, the emperor immediately looked at Concubine Chen with a meaningful look and asked, "What's the matter?" β
Lin Mubai has been staying in the mansion for most of the past few days, and like many other officials, he said that he was recuperating from illness to avoid suspicion. It's really chilling to say, almost all of the three princes were killed by the plot, and it's not like today, when the two factions fought each other as soon as they met, making a lot of trouble in the court. And the emperor only wanted to cure the illness of the four princes, and had no intention of going to court at all, so the struggle between the two factions intensified. Lin Mubai simply told his illness at home, firstly to avoid suspicion, and secondly, he also wanted to calm down and think about what was going on. He also couldn't understand why someone would attack the four princes at this time. Will it be done by the Three Princes? Or is someone deliberately trying to discredit the Three Princes? After thinking about it, I feel that this matter is like seeing flowers in the fog, so that people can't see through it after all.
Mrs. Lin saw that the old man was depressed these days, so she sent someone to Orchid Garden to call the young lady over, saying that she wanted to check the learning results of the young lady, and she really wanted to amuse the old man, so that he could change his mood.
At this time, Lin Mubai and his wife were sitting in the main room of Xiangyuan, waiting for his newly packaged young lady to make a grand debut.
After a while, I saw Mrs. Lin's maid Ah Zi walking in from outside the door with a smile and said, "Master, madam, Miss has arrived." As he spoke, he saw the curtain of the door lifted, and a girl dressed in a smoky purple gauze loose flower skirt moved her slender steps and floated into the house like a willow in the wind.
Lin Mubai, who was drinking tea comfortably, almost squirted out a sip of tea. "Lan'er?" He asked, a little suspicious.
"Lan'er has seen Daddy." The voice was soft and soft, not at all like the plain style of their daughter.
"Lan'er has seen her mother." The girl continued to bend down. This graceful and graceful appearance should be pleasing to the eye, but somehow, Lin Mubai always felt awkward how she looked.
Mrs. Lin picked up the cup and pretended to drink tea, so she covered her mouth and snickered twice, then cleared her throat and said, "Well, it seems that these two grandmothers are very well trained. However, after all, the time is too short, and I have only learned one appearance, and Shen Yun is still a few points behind. In my opinion, if these two grandmothers stay in the house for a whole year, Lan'er will definitely benefit a lot. β
Before the words fell, I saw Miss Jiao stomping her feet and shouting, "Mother! How can you not talk without words! With this stamping of his feet, Xing Hai on the cloud sideburns and mist bun followed the sound.
"Whew-this is our Lan'er!" Lin Mubai finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Mrs. Lin also smiled slightly and said, "Finally, I can't help but show my true face, right?" β
"Ahem......" Zhilan was suddenly a little embarrassed, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she pulled out an awkward dignified smile to her father.
At this moment, Guan Feng suddenly broke in from outside the door and inadvertently relieved Zhilan. I saw him happily holding up a letter and shouting, "Dad, mother, brother is coming home soon-"
