Chapter 278: No matter how bad your temperament is, it's enough to have this face
The carriage that Zhou Du was riding quickly entered the palace, and the people who followed secretly turned around and went to the Qin Palace's mansion to report to Zhou Xing.
"Entered the palace early in the morning?" Zhou Xing was thoughtful.
Today is the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the day of family reunion, what did Zhou Twilight do when he entered the palace?
"And it's also Lord Palm Print who personally welcomes Lord Zhou into the palace." The spy said again.
Zhou Xing looked at the front for a while: "Prepare the carriage, this king will enter the palace immediately."
He wanted to see what kind of important things his father and emperor had, and he had to see Zhou Twilight on Chinese New Year's Eve.
Zhou Xing entered the palace as fast as he could, heading towards Qiankun Palace.
Unexpectedly, when he arrived at Qiankun Palace, Emperor Chengde was not here, and Liu Qing was nowhere to be seen.
He went to the Qinzheng Palace again, but he still didn't see Emperor Chengde.
The strangest thing is that he looked for several places where Emperor Chengde might go, but he didn't find anyone.
Later, he simply went to Yankang Palace to ask the Queen Mother for peace.
When the Queen Mother saw him coming, she seemed to have something to say, "You kid have something to say?"
"Does the Imperial Grandmother know where the Emperor is? No one knows where his father went, so can his father ask his grandmother for peace today?" Zhou Xing asked directly.
"The Emperor came early in the morning, and after saying goodbye, he disappeared. Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, it is rare to be free, and the emperor may go to the harem to walk around." The Queen Mother was not suspicious of the problem.
Zhou Xing remembered in his heart that Emperor Chengde had seen Zhou Du alone, and he tried without a trace: "My grandson heard that my father and the emperor met Lord Zhou Du today, can the emperor's grandmother know where Lord Zhou came from?"
The Queen Mother was surprised when she heard this: "What did the emperor do when he saw Lord Zhou today? The emperor is indeed arrogant about Lord Zhou, but it is strange that he still edicted people into the palace during the Chinese New Year."
Zhou Xing was also at a loss when he saw the Queen Mother, and he knew that he couldn't ask why.
This trip was in vain.
Out of Yankang Palace, Zhou Xing went to Ganquan Palace.
Along the way, I met many royal family members, all of whom entered the palace for reunion dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve.
As soon as Concubine Xian saw Zhou Xing, she pulled him and talked for a while.
Later, when she saw Zhou Xing's eyes, Concubine Xian ordered the other attendants to retreat.
When Concubine Xian was left with only henchmen, Zhou Xingcai said that Zhou Du entered the palace.
Concubine Xian had never met Zhou Dui, but she had heard of Zhou Dui's name more than once. It is said that Zhou Du's appearance and bearing are very outstanding, and he has to be valued by Emperor Chengde.
But on Chinese New Year's Eve, he was also edicted into the palace, and he was haunted, which really made people wonder what the origin of Zhou Twilight was.
"Have you searched all the places your father has been?" Concubine Xian asked.
"I searched everywhere I could think of, but I couldn't see any trace of my father. Ask the attendants who are waiting in the Kun Qiangong Palace, and they don't know where the father has gone, maybe only Liu Zhangyin knows why the father and emperor value Zhou Du so much." Zhou Xing then talked about Zhou Dusk's makeup for Gu Xiyan that day.
After hearing this, Concubine Xian's expression became solemn: "Just entering the court as an official has such a big deal, which only shows that the Zhou Dusk Mansion is either rich or expensive."
"My son thinks so too. Just those four boxes of gold cakes are incredible, where can ordinary people get so much makeup? Even Erchen can't take it out, but it can be seen that Zhou Du's mansion is very good." Zhou Xing expressed his opinion: "Erchen doesn't like Zhou Du very much."
"Are you still thinking of Gu Xiyan?" Concubine Xian's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
Zhou Xingzheng said, "What is Erchen thinking of her? Soon Erchen married Chaoyan, and Erchen's Qin princess only had Chaoyan, what is a Gu Xiyan? Erchen hates Zhou Dui, and it has nothing to do with Xiyan."
Concubine Xian looked at Zhou Xing's expression and saw that he didn't seem to be lying, so she was relieved.
"You have to remember one thing, no one or anything is more important than the position of the crown prince." Concubine Xian deliberately lowered her voice: "Woman, when you take the position, what kind of beauty do you want?" Look at the book
Of course, Zhou Xing understands these truths, and he hasn't been thinking about Gu Xiyan anymore recently, but he doesn't like to hear about it, so he got up and said, "Erchen will go to other places in the palace again."
"It's rare for you to make a trip to the palace, no
Spend more time with your mother?" Concubine Xian's heart is not a taste.
The child is old and does not leave a mother, and since the child moved out of the palace to live, he has become less and less close to her, a mother.
"Erchen wants to find his father again, and come back to accompany his mother later." Zhou Xing said and left.
After leaving Ganquan Palace, Zhou Xing went to Qiankun Palace again, but there was still no trace of Emperor Chengde.
He didn't know that Emperor Chengde specially confessed that no one was allowed to expose his whereabouts.
He just wanted to have a reunion dinner with his eldest son in peace, for the first time in twenty years, and no one was to disturb him.
The palace was picked by Liu Qing, it is relatively quiet, there are no people in and out of the ordinary, and it is even quieter during the Chinese New Year.
"Did you have a reunion dinner so early?" Zhou Du saw a table of dishes, and he didn't have much appetite.
Emperor Cheng De sneered: "Isn't it to accommodate you, an unfilial son?"
Zhou Du was silent, "Actually, it's quite a novelty to have a reunion dinner at this hour."
His words finally pleased Emperor Chengde, and before the emperor had time to be happy, Zhou Du said again: "But I still have to hurry up, I still want to go to the Hou Mansion to accompany Xiyan for a reunion dinner."
Emperor Chengde: ......
Liu Qing couldn't help laughing on the side, feeling deeply sad for Emperor Chengde.
But only in the presence of His Highness can His Majesty experience the joy of ordinary people. The other princes and princesses are respectful to His Majesty, and treat His Majesty more as a king than an ordinary father.
"You're busy, kid." Emperor Cheng De couldn't help but sarcastically say to Zhou Duan.
Zhou Du said sarcastically, "Isn't Dad also very busy? After this reunion dinner, there will be the next reunion dinner."
Emperor Chengde was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and suddenly asked, "Zimo, does Xiyan know your side?"
Zhou Du was dumbfounded for a moment and couldn't answer.
Seeing this, Emperor Cheng De patted him on the shoulder, as if comforting: "It's okay, no matter how bad your temperament is, it's enough to have this face."
"Xiyan is not just a beautiful person." Zhou Du paused, and then asked, "Is my son's temperament really so unpleasant?"
Emperor Chengde couldn't help but smile: "I like it very much as a father, and I think Xiyan will like it too."
Zhou Du knew that his father was comforting him, but he didn't take it seriously.
It's not a big deal not to let Xiyan know his unlikable side, what kind of person she likes, and what kind of person he will be in front of her.
The bad side is not allowed to be seen.
Emperor Cheng De knew that Zhou Dui's alcohol consumption was not good, and he was afraid that he would get sick, so he didn't dare to drink with him.
After a so-called reunion dinner, the two fathers and sons did not enjoy any family fun, but fought with each other, poking each other's sore spots.
After finishing the meal, seeing the tall figure of Zhou Dui walking away, Emperor Chengde still wet his eyes.
Liu Qing knew how complicated Emperor Chengde's mood was.
After all, it has been twenty years, and this is the first time that he can have a reunion dinner with his eldest son on such a day as Chinese New Year's Eve, and His Majesty is crying with joy.
