186 fanfare
Ruotang realized that Concubine Shugui's intention was to confirm the identity of the seventh prince of Chu Qianlan Liuguo in front of the public!
This is simply a hundred and eight thousand miles away from her expectations! She originally thought that Concubine Shu would use the little princess to test Chu Qianlan, according to the little princess's lively and lovely temperament, if Chu Qianlan didn't hate or even dislike her approaching him. Then Concubine Shu knows in her heart, and she will start the second move.
But Ruotang never dreamed that as soon as Concubine Shu made a move, it would be such a blockbuster move, which was simply unexpected.
It's too ruthless! Look for a chatter.
Ruotang is the only real real, for the first time, that Concubine Shu is by no means so easy to deal with.
Obviously, Chu Qianlan, who had stopped fighting and was besieged in the middle, also realized his so-called mother's methods, and this was only the first step!
As soon as the fight stopped, the half-believing little princess saw Chu Qianlan's face clearly, and couldn't help but exclaim. Walked quickly in front of Chu Qianlan, raised his head and looked at him carefully, "You, are you really my seventh brother?" β
Chu Qianlan looked at her coldly and said lightly, "You recognized the wrong person." β
"How can this be mistaken?" The two grandmothers who had "recognized" Chu Qianlan before stepped forward excitedly, "Princess, look, is it exactly the same as Your Majesty's appearance?" The slave maid had heard about it. Among the princes, the one who looks the most like His Majesty is our Seven Princes. However, the Seventh Prince has been recuperating in the palace and has not returned to the capital for many years, and outsiders have never known about it. β
Another grandmother hurriedly chimed in: "Yes, the slave maid has also heard of it!" Seventh Highness, come back to the palace with us, if Your Majesty sees you, you will be happy and don't know what to do! β
The little princess looked at Chu Qianlan, who had a cold and evil face, and subconsciously turned back to look at Ruotang, "Sister Shen......"
She looked dazed, and had many questions in her mind, such as why she chased an assassin. actually chased out her unmasked seventh brother, for example, if the person in front of him was really seventh brother, why did he come back secretly and be in the same room with Sister Shen, whom the third brother liked? But she couldn't ask any of these questions, so she could only look at Ruotang for help.
Ruotang walked towards her, his eyes met Chu Qianlan's eyes quickly, Chu Qianlan shook his head almost invisibly, and Ruotang understood what he meant.
"This is Lin Gongzi, not His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince as you say." Ruotang's expression was slightly cold, and he glanced at the two eloquent mothers-in-law. "Even though Gongzi Lin is similar to the Seventh Highness in your mouth, but in the world, how many people look similar? If you don't say that this is your Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, I have to ask, what proof do you have? β
She had already walked in front of Chu Qianlan at this time, and her originally petite and delicate body stood in front of him, but she insisted on standing up with the momentum of the Iron Horse Mountains and Rivers.
The announcatory aura of "this man is covered by me", Zhou Houyuan couldn't help but want to applaud when he saw it!
It's really his niece's daughter, well, like him!
The two grandmothers glanced at each other, and one of them said boldly: "Although there are people in this world who look similar, but it is rare to see such a small person." Miss Shen, the status of the Seventh Prince is precious. I was sent to the palace to recuperate when I was young, and for a while, if you want us to give a certificate, we can't give it. ButβPrincess, take a closer look, is the Seventh Highness carved out of the same mold as His Majesty? β
"If you can't get the certificate for a while, it doesn't matter." Ruotang hooked his lips coldly, "Lin Gongzi and I are waiting here, which of you will go back to the palace and ask what kind of evidence the Seven Princes have." This royal bloodline can not be determined just by looking similar, if you are mistaken, is the crime of bullying the monarch yours, or is it Lin Gongzi's? Ninth Princess, do you think what I said is reasonable? β
The little princess nodded again and again, "Sister Shen said very well, even if this Lin Gongzi is similar to his father Xiao, he still has to figure it out, not to mention that Lin Gongzi does not recognize him as my seventh brother, so he can't act hastily - come here, go back to the palace immediately and tell his father and mother about this matter, and we are here to wait for my father's will!" β
β¦β¦
Concubine Shu was leaning on the railing of the white jade bridge, holding a small silver bowl with fish food in her crystal clear hand, and she was feeding the fish without distraction.
"Mother." The personal palace maid Hongluan walked over quickly.
Concubine Shu looked up at the sky, handed the fish food in her hand to the little palace maid next to her, and then took the handkerchief respectfully handed by the little palace maid and wiped her hands, before raising her eyes, "What's wrong?" β
Hongluan's expression was solemn, and she said two words in her ear, and Concubine Shugui's originally relaxed expression immediately became a little difficult to look at, "This thing is not enough to succeed and more than to lose!" β
Hongluan cautiously asked: "Now Jing'an Temple is still waiting, Your Majesty has just sent someone to ask, ...... you see?"
But in an instant, Concubine Shugui's expression returned to her previous feminine and demure appearance, "First change the plain clothes of the palace, and the palace will go to see Your Majesty." β
When Concubine Shu entered the Qinzheng Hall of Bailihuang's office with red eyes, she saw Bailihuang pacing back and forth with some excitement.
Seeing Concubine Shu, the corners of his mouth that originally wanted to laugh suddenly drooped, and he hugged the body of Xian Nong Hedu who threw himself into his arms in distress, "What's wrong?" But the joy is broken? Like you, I rejoice. Originally, I was still thinking about what method to use to make the emperor appear in front of people reasonably, but I didn't expect the opportunity to come so quickly, it's really ......"
"Your Majesty!" Concubine Shu shouted in a thick nasal voice, and before the words could be spoken, tears had already fallen in strings.
The startled Baili Huang asked her where she was uncomfortable and if she had suffered any grievances.
Concubine Shu shook her head, tears splashing down with her movements, "We're afraid we're ...... I'm afraid I won't be able to recognize the emperor anymore. β
"Huh? But where does this begin? Bai Lihuang was obviously confused by her, "The emperor is now in Jing'an Temple, with Xiao Jiu's girl, I know that he must have resentment in his heart for so many years, and there are also little tempers, you condone him this time, tell the people who come what characteristics he has, and let him follow Xiao Jiu and them back convincingly......"
Before he finished speaking, Concubine Shu cried even more sadly, "Your Majesty, it's all my fault, and it's all my fault...... As soon as he was born, Emperor Chu took him away, just to use him to restrain me and prevent me from easily seeking death. For the sake of the emperor, I survived...... But he didn't let me see the emperor, nor did he let me hold him, it was all the palace people who took care of the emperor, and I didn't ...... at all I didn't know that the emperor had the characteristics of the imprint on his body. Your Majesty, what should I do? Are we unable to recognize the emperor anymore? β
When Bai Lihuang heard her mention Emperor Chu, there was a faint anger in his eyes, but the most important thing at the moment was not anything else, but to coax the poor woman who was heartbroken in his arms.
"It's not your fault, it's just that I couldn't protect you two back then." Bai Lihuang sighed deeply, "Don't cry, I'll find a way." β
"Now we're waiting, what else can we do?" Concubine Shu choked and grabbed Bai Lihuang's sleeves, looking weak and delicate that she would fall down at any time. "The emperor must be very resentful of me as a mother in his heart, so he will ...... My poor child, it's all my fault, it's my fault, woo......"
"I directly issued a clear decree to announce him to enter the palace to speak, what do you think?"
"This, you made an order, the emperor can't resist the order, but will he be unhappy?" Concubine Shu looked at Baili Huang uneasily and helplessly, as if looking at her sky.
"He will definitely have some emotions, but let's understand him with reason and emotion, let him understand your hardships in the past, I think he will be able to understand." Bai Lihuang said in a deep voice, but it was about their common son, so the usual killing decision came to Concubine Shugui, so he would hesitate.
"That's fine." Concubine Shu thought for a while, and then said: "I heard that Miss Shen is also in Jing'an Temple, and she actually knows the emperor, why don't you bring her into the palace together." β
"Miss Shen?" Bai Lihuang frowned, "Is that the orphan girl who has no father and no mother in the third mansion?" She stayed in the house restlessly, how could she get involved? I said, what can a girl without a father and mother have to be educated, this third child is also out of tune, anyone dares to go to the house to get it, he is older, but this behavior is getting more and more outrageous, he should be reprimanded. β
"Miss Shen is the life-saving benefactor of the Third Highness, and the Third Highness is grateful to her, and it is nothing to take her into the house, but this is nameless and unpointed, and it really affects the wronged girl."
"Reputation?" Bai Lihuang's brows furrowed even tighter, "I can't get on the stage, what more do you want?" But you reminded me that the princess in front of the third child has been gone for three years, I should think about it, and you should also help me think about it, which school-age woman in this capital is as good as the third child, we are busy with the third child's stubble, but we have to be busy with our emperor's family affairs...... Okay, wipe away your tears, and I'll announce them to the palace. β
β¦β¦
The news that the emperor ordered Chu Qianlan and others to enter the palace also reached Baili Wenhan's ears at the same time.
"I didn't expect Concubine Shu to have such intentions, but we were all wrong." Baili Wenhan slapped his palm on the desk, and there was a flash of anger in his eyes.
Mr. Gu on the other side shook the folding fan, "Yes, Concubine Shugui's move is afraid that everyone will be caught off guard - she is afraid that the King of Xiang will not be able to refuse the identity of the Seventh Prince, and she thinks that if she confirms the identity of the Seventh Prince in front of people, the King of Xiang will no longer be able to shirk it." As long as the identity is confirmed, it is good to follow her soft and hard in the future, and the king of Xiang will always recognize her as a mother. Your Highness, we lost the chess game, and it is expected that with her usual cautious approach, it will not be so fanfare, and now we must find a way to remedy it in time. β
"Please sir, how can I remedy it?" Baili Wenhan hurriedly asked.
"If you muddy this pool, no one will be able to reap the benefits, what do you think?" Mr. Gu's eyes flashed slightly, and he suggested with a slight smile.
"Sir, is it to make Chu Qianlan's identity public? In this way, there will only be King Chu Xiang in this world, and there will be no more Seven Princes? Baili Wenhan stroked his palms and laughed, "Okay, I want to see how Concubine Shu will take my move-"
As he spoke, he got up and walked out, "I'm going to do this myself!" β
β¦β¦
It was still the Zen room that was forced into, Ruotang pulled Chu Qianlan and Zhou Houyuan to sit down, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, they were talking without stubble.
The little princess stood aside, looking like she wanted to get closer, but she didn't dare.
She was also sensitively aware that in a small circle of three people besieging the city, she could not be allowed to intervene.
Originally, Sister Shen liked her very much, but just now she felt that Sister Shen seemed to be a little angry with her? What is she angry about? Because she brought someone in and disturbed her and her ...... Friends?
The little princess's gaze couldn't help but fall on Chu Qianlan, that handsome and extraordinary man who was very similar to her father's birth, was it really her seventh brother? If it was really Brother Qi, why didn't he admit it? He seems to be very good with Sister Shen?
What kind of person is Sister Shen? Living in the third brother's mansion, knowing a man who looks savage and rough, and now he is familiar with a man who is suspected of being her seventh brother - they should be more than just acquaintances, the little princess saw Ruotang take a piece of mung bean cold cake and naturally send it to that person's mouth.
The man lowered his head and smiled softly at her, a gentle gaze just like his father often looked at his mother.
What is their relationship?
Ruotang naturally didn't have time to pay attention to the little princess whose head was aching at this time, and she was busy avoiding her uncle's murderous gaze.
In the end, she couldn't stand Zhou Houyuan's fierce gaze, and raised her hand in surrender: "Uncle, what do you have to say, don't look like this, it's scary." β
"I want to say it!" Zhou Houyuan gritted his teeth and grinded his teeth, looking at Chu Qianlan, who was enjoying Ruotang's service with a casual face, and then at Ruotang, who was smiling hippie, he felt a burst of anger, and asked in a low voice full of anger: "But which of you has time to tell me, what the hell is the Seventh Prince?" β
Ruotang blinked innocently, "You also saw it, they recognized the wrong person, didn't say that the prince was their seventh prince, you said it was outrageous?" β
"Shen Ruotang!" Zhou Houyuan glared at her warringly.
Chu Qianlan hurriedly jumped out to protect her, he naturally understood that Ruotang did not tell Zhou Houyuan about his life experience, and he protected him like this, for the sake of his mood - she didn't want anyone to look at him with strange eyes, including her relatives.
"It's nothing." Chu Qianlan said lightly, "More than 20 years ago, there was a woman who fled from Da Chu and returned to Liuguo after giving birth to a child in Da Chu. β
