Chapter 162: The Father-Son Dispute
Chen Youcong came to Xinuan Pavilion after a while, greeted Chen Jianjun, and waited for his command with his head down.
Chen Jianjun suppressed his anger and slowly said to Chen Youcong: "I called you here today to ask you a question, and you answered honestly with me." The two brothers of the imperial concubine died unexpectedly, did you move your hands and feet? ”
"Father," Chen Youcong raised his eyes to look at him, "The Jin brothers instructed people to beat Zhang Rongkun and set fire to the Songzhu Girls' School, and Zhang Daochang died when he went back and forth to save people in the fire. One of the youngest children in the school was also burned to death, and she was only four years old. When the fire started, she hid under the desk and didn't dare to come out, Zhang Daochang finally found her, but when he carried her out, he was knocked down by the burning beam. There were also a dozen other children who were burned. If the school's husband and children go to sue the government and Fu Yin reports to you, will you support Fu Yin to bring the Kim brothers to justice? ”
Chen Jianjun was speechless. Annoyed, he exclaimed, "How did you talk to me? You get on my knees! ”
Chen Youcong knelt down.
Chen Jianjun felt an evil fire in his heart, but he didn't know how to attack. He walked around next to Chen Youcong. He sighed and stopped, "I know that this matter was originally the fault of the Jin brothers, and Zhang Daochang died innocently. But if you don't say a word, you will kill people with your hands, and you will be too hasty and reckless in doing things! ”
"Erchen only thinks that they are innocent of death!" Chen Youcong knelt down, but his momentum was not weak at all.
"But after all, they are the brothers of the imperial concubine! And it's not their own hands! You killed the ruffians who set fire to the people and shaved them out, why did you move them? Chen Jianjun's voice became louder and louder.
"But they are the culprits behind the scenes, so why can't they be moved?" Chen Youcong is also full of energy.
"Just because they are the brothers of the imperial concubine! Just because if the imperial concubine hadn't protected me back then, I wouldn't have survived, and if I hadn't survived, I wouldn't have you! ”
"My son didn't ask you to give birth to me! Erchen would rather my mother never gave birth to me back then! If she hadn't begotten me, she wouldn't have died! When Chen Youcong said this, his eyes were already full of tears, but he was still staring at Chen Jianjun for a moment.
"Good, good!" Chen Jianjun suddenly felt weak and short of breath under such a gaze: "Sure enough, sure enough, you have been holding a grudge!" "He felt like he was out of his body, and he had to find a weapon to protect himself.
"I am the king, the Son of Heaven!" He tried his best to steady his voice and said, "My will cannot be disobeyed! What happened back then, I said that I would not pursue it again, so I should not pursue it again! Whoever still holds on to it is my enemy! ”
"Even if Erchen doesn't pursue it anymore, will the Jin family let Erchen go? Today's incident, isn't it caused by the Jin family's embarrassment with his sons everywhere, and the sons have to fight back? ”
"That's why you are too sharp that caused the imperial concubine to be suspicious!" Chen Jianjun only felt physically and mentally exhausted, he just wanted to press down and end this matter as soon as possible. "You go to the imperial concubine to make amends, say that you are wrong, please forgive you!"
"The son is not guilty, and he will not make amends to her." Chen Youcong said expressionlessly.
"You killed the imperial concubine's own brother! Asking you to make amends is to end this matter as soon as possible, and for your own good, you know! Chen Jianjun said bitterly.
"They killed the miracle doctors and innocent children who saved countless lives!" Chen Jianjun said a sentence to Chen Youcong.
"You, you bastard! Do you still have a father in your eyes, do you have a monarch? ”
"Is there still justice and morality in the eyes of my father?" Chen Youcong has the courage to break the kettle and speak mercilessly.
"You're talking to me like that!" Chen Jianjun was almost mad, turned his head to look around, and couldn't see anything to take advantage of. Suddenly, he saw a picture scroll on the bookcase, he picked it up and tore off the drawing paper, grabbed the wooden scroll and pulled it hard at Chen Youcong's back.
After more than a dozen straight pumps, Chen Youcong was beaten so that his hands were propped up on the ground, and when Chen Jianjun stopped breathing, Chen Youcong barely straightened his back again.
Chen Youcong has never been afraid of the cold, although after the Mid-Autumn Festival, he still only wears single clothes. Chen saw Jun whipping with his ruthless hand, and blood was already slowly leaking out of his back.
Chen Jianjun saw it, and he couldn't bear it in his heart. He threw the scroll and asked, "Good!" If you are stubborn and don't ask for sin, you can also not go. But you have to swear to me that you will never be enemies of the imperial concubine and the Jin family again in this life, and even after a hundred years, you will not trouble them. If you are willing to swear, you will be your prince in peace. If you don't want to swear, don't do it, this prince! ”
"Father, you trust your sons. Do you believe that your son will keep his promise? Chen Youcong scoffed.
"I still know you. As long as you swear, I will believe you! ”
"However, the retainer would not make such an oath. Whoever does evil will be punished. Heaven returns, negligence but not leakage. Erchen will only obey the heavens, and there is no reason to disobey the heavens! Chen Youcong flatly refused.
After Chen Youcong said these words, he thought that Chen Jianjun would be even more angry. As a result, after waiting for a long time, Chen Jianjun did not move.
When Chen Youcong looked back, he saw Chen Jianjun standing there like a clay sculpture and wood carving, his face full of ashes.
Chen Jianjun stopped talking, and Chen Youcong was stubborn and unwilling to speak.
After a long time, Chen Jianjun said weakly: "Let's go." Let's go. I can't control you......"
Chen Youcong stood up. Although he was beaten, he felt that Chen Jianjun seemed to have been hit harder than him. He looked at Chen Jianjun hesitantly.
Chen Jianjun waved his hand: "If you are told to go, you will go." Get lost! He raised his voice at the end.
"Son's resignation!" Chen Youcong bowed his head and retreated.
After Chen Youcong walked out, Chen Jianjun staggered to the soft collapse in the corner, lay down, curled himself tightly into a ball, and muttered: "I'd rather never be born!" I'd rather I had never been born! ”
Chen Youcong returned to Changning Palace, Feng Hao helped him sit on the soft collapse, and he was about to send someone to ask for a doctor. Chen Youcong didn't want to mobilize the people to find the imperial doctor, so he only asked Wen Zhu to find the wound medicine that Zhang Weizhao had prepared for him before, and ordered Feng Hao to apply it to him.
The cool wound medicine was applied to the rod wound, relieving the burning stinging pain and calming Chen Youcong's heart.
He changed into soft clothes and sat down on the soft floor in deep thought.
Was it too reckless to kill the Kim brothers?
No, he doesn't think so. Even if he was beaten by the emperor today, even if he was threatened to take away the crown prince, he did not regret it.
Even if he is obscure, Jin Ling'er will not let him go, it is better to be happy and revenge.
What would happen to him if he didn't become a prince? What else could he do? Chen Youcong thinks about this question from time to time these days. From the time he was sensible, his goal in life was to become a qualified prince, and all his education was aimed at achieving this goal. For a moment, he couldn't imagine what he would do without this goal.
Although he couldn't find an answer, he was not willing to grovel and give up his dignity, just to stay in this position for a long time.
Suddenly, he really wanted to see Zhang Weizhao. Even if she is unconscious now, he is willing to stay by her side.
As soon as this thought arose, he decided not to suppress himself anymore, get up and leave. Anyway, it's already like this now, what else is there to worry about?
Feng Hao saw that the prince was going out, and hurriedly persuaded him: "Your Highness, where are you going?" Be careful that the wound on your back will bleed again! ”
Chen Youcong didn't say a word, and kept walking out, and Feng Hao followed behind.
walked silently all the way to the Feixian Palace and came to the door of Zhang Weizhao's single room.
When Chen Youcong entered the gate of Feixian Palace, a little girl flew to the single room in the backyard to report the news, and Mint, who was taking care of Zhang Weizhao, had already gone out and waited outside. Shi Yan and Du Zhong took turns to rest, and now Mint and Nanxing are on duty.
When Mint saw Chen Youcong coming, she walked up and gave a blessing, and said with tears in her eyes: "Your Highness Qiqi, Zhaoming Zhenren, she has woken up!" ”
"When?" Chen Youcong was very surprised, and asked as he walked in quickly.
"It's nearly noon today."
"Good! Thank you very much! ”
"Slaves don't work hard!" Mint smiled.
Chen Youcong came to the outer room of the single room, but stood still and asked Mint to ask Zhang Weizhao first if he could go in.
Zhang Weizhao heard it in the middle and said directly: "Please come in!" ”
Chen Youcong lifted the curtain and went in, and saw Zhang Weizhao leaning on the head of the bed looking at him, looking depressed but calm. Chen Yucong took a few steps, knelt on one knee on the pedal, held her hand, and pressed his face to the back of her hand.
"Ah Zhao, you have suffered!" Chen Youcong whispered.
Zhang Weizhao used his other hand to straighten the broken hair behind his ear, and suddenly found that there was a blood mark on his neck that extended from his clothes. It seems that it is a new injury that has just been suffered.
Zhang Weizhao sat up straight, "Why are you injured?" She asked, frowning.
Chen Youcong raised his head and smiled and said, "I was smoked by my father in the Qianqing Palace. ”
"Why did you hit you?" Zhang Weizhao knew that something must have happened when he was unconscious.
"Jin Ling'er's two brothers, one fell from a horse and the other fought with people, and they all died."
"You did it?"
"Yes!" Chen Youcong smiled, but he was a little apprehensive in his heart, and he didn't know if Zhang Weizhao would blame him for being reckless.
Zhang Weizhao naturally understood why Chen Youcong did this. She let out a long sigh and opened her arms to Chen Youcong.
Chen Youcong understood, and immediately stretched out his arms and hugged Zhang Weizhao tightly in his arms.
Zhang Weizhao neither blamed Chen Youcong for being reckless, nor thanked him, but only said: "Now we are all people with murder cases in our hands." ”
Chen Youcong said: "Don't be afraid! Let's go to hell together! ”
Zhang Weizhao shook his head and said firmly: "No! No, it won't! That's not the place to be left for us! ”
"I may not be able to become a prince." Chen Youcong pulled away for a distance, looked into Zhang Weizhao's eyes and said.
