Chen Xi's frightened look made Du Ming laugh.

"Brother Kun shared what he thought was delicious with his father, why didn't you appreciate it?"

"I just don't like things that should be sweet and salt......y," Chen Xi hugged his son and smiled, "It feels weird to put meat in the fruit." ”

Brother Kun seemed to understand, frowned at his father and shouted "no, no".

"You little fool," Du Ming stroked his head lovingly, "you can't speak, so you want to quarrel with someone?" ”

Chen Xi laughed and carried his son on his shoulders and said, "Your mother said that you are stupid, and now you know that your father is a good person, right?" ”

Brother Kun looked at his mother on the left and his father on the right, grinning.

"Where are you going to take him?" Du Mingxin saw Chen Xi carrying his son out, and hurriedly asked.

"Go to the back and ride a horse, and stand on a stake." Chen Xi looked back and smiled, but the steps under his feet did not stop.

"It's not the same way to teach my son...... If you can't run smoothly, what kind of pile are you standing? You can just take him back on two laps of horseback. Du Ming said angrily.

"You don't care!" Chen Xi took Brother Kun out of the main courtyard in a blink of an eye.

Du Mingxin shook his head helplessly, it is the father's responsibility to teach his son, and she can't manage it so much.

At this time in Jingren Palace, Qian Yulan and her sister-in-law He were sitting opposite each other and weeping.

"Zhaorong, don't cry, now that the situation is not good, you have to take care of yourself, your good life in the future will be tied to the little prince!" He wiped his tears with a handkerchief, choked and persuaded.

"I also know," Qian Yulan cried so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, and the He family also felt that I was pitiful, "but the emperor never came to see me, I felt uncomfortable!" ”

"Then why don't you say that you are not feeling well, please ask the emperor to come up and take a look?" He asked tentatively, "In our palace before, ah no, when I was at home before, those around your brother didn't often do this?" ”

Qian Yulan thought about the faces of those women competing for favor that she had seen in Wu Yue before, and she felt very disdainful. "I, I can't do it."

"Good aunt, when is this!" He said hurriedly, "Last time, you said that you wanted to eat fish, didn't the emperor send someone to ask if the officials from the south were at home?" ”

"If it is in the past, what you say is what you say, sister-in-law, I will never disobey you. But now that the eldest brother is going to study, the gentlemen who are better in the capital are busy refusing to resign when they hear that it is our family who invites Xixi. Later, your brother said forget it, it's the same if you go to the academy, but you can ask and ask, no academy is willing to accept it! ”

He Shi said and said that sadness came from it, and tears began to fall down again: "Think about the identity of the eldest brother, he is your brother's eldest son!" How did you get to the point where you couldn't find your husband when you were studying? If it's still in Jiangnan......"

Qing Dai was startled on the side, and hurriedly whispered: "Madame carefully has ears on the wall!" ”

He also realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly coughed a few times to cover up the past.

"Your brother can't see it, I just hope that my eldest brother can be more productive, don't let me live this kind of frightened and scared life!"

Qian Yulan also felt sad when she thought about it. She took He's hand and cried: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I think my eldest brother is a good person, and he will definitely have a future in the future, and the life at home will definitely get better and better." ”

"Then I have to be good to you!" He wanted to knock on his sister-in-law's head to see what she thought, could that little bit of face be more important than her own life?

"Most of the eldest brother's studies still have to be said by the emperor. Even if it's not for the eldest brother, for the sake of this in your belly, you can't just share it with the emperor! The one in Changchun Palace only worked hard in front of the queen mother, and did not go to the emperor. But the one in Kunning Palace looks at you like a thorn in the eye! Didn't I humiliate you a few days ago? She's not even thirty years old! You have some fights, it's not like you can hide if you want to! ”

Qian Yulan felt that she couldn't say anything, she didn't think about who she wanted to compete with and be jealous of, all she thought about was all about the past and Chen Yuantai, and she was just entangled in whether he liked her or not?

Seeing that it was almost time to leave the palace, He Shi became anxious and urged: "Grandma, you should give me a good word!" Can't I go to the palace, and it makes us hang our hearts! ”

"I ......" Qian Yulan also felt extremely wronged, how could she calculate emotional matters!

But looking at He's anxious gaze, she still nodded stubbornly: "I'll try to take a look." ”

In the afternoon of the next day, Chen Yuantai summoned Chen Xi into the palace, and the father and son sat and drank tea in the Xinuan Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace.

Chen Xi saw Chen Yuantai's tired face, and knew that this morning's court meeting was afraid that the officials had been chattering for a few more hours. He didn't speak, only silently added tea to Chen Yuantai.

Chen Yuantai looked at Chen Xi, father and son saw each other day but couldn't recognize each other, his heart was very sad.

He suddenly let out a long sigh and said: "Confucius said that people 'do what they want in their hearts and do not exceed the rules', but sitting in my position, I am afraid that I will not be able to do what I want until I die." ”

"You can't say that," Chen Xi said with a smile, "This thousand pounds of weight is on you, so naturally there are times when you feel tired." ”

"You have also read Buddhist scriptures since childhood, what do Buddhists say about this?"

Chen Xi smiled embarrassedly and said: "Erchen can't be worthy of his father's words, at the beginning of the Shaolin Temple, I was a little competitive, blindly working martial arts, and my reference to Buddhism was very superficial. ”

"Just talk about it." Chen Yuantai said with a smile, enjoying the time with his son to talk quietly.

"Buddhism's cloud, 'if you are separated from your beloved, you will not be afraid of worry'. My father's current troubled and tangled emotions all stem from a little obsession. Chen Xi smiled, "If a monk chats with you, most of them will persuade you to let go of your obsessions." Cut off the root cause, and the troubles will naturally not exist. ”

However, Erchen thinks, what is obsession? It's just a little persistence born of love. If there is no love, there will be no troubles, and there will be much less happiness. ”

"......Perseverance born of love," Chen repeated.

Magnolia, my son is trying to persuade me......

"I'm not asking my father to give up insistence," Chen Xi saw Chen Yuantai's contemplative look on his face, and hurriedly said, "Father, you are not an arbitrary person, if there is something that can make you insist so much, then you must have your reasons." ”

"It's more like you're talking to the civil servants,"

"Tug-of-war."

The two said in unison.

Chen Yuantai laughed, worthy of being the son of me and Yulan, he is really smart!

Although it is said that the monarch is the minister, since Song Taizu removed Zhao Pu's chair in front of the monarch, the imperial power and the prime minister's power have been fighting. Sometimes the east wind overpowers the west wind, and sometimes the west wind overpowers the east wind. ”
