Reborn on the wedding night, the regent princess said she knew she was wrong
Chapter 522: The Truth of That Year (Part )
After Sheng Chuyi finished crying, he wiped his face.
After calming down, he instructed others to take a shower and change clothes.
The three armies are setting out today, and all the ministers are going to the city gate to see them off, so there is no need to attend court today.
After changing his clothes, Sheng Chuyi went straight to Chu Ningmeng Palace to find Sheng Yuan.
It has been some time since the army set out, and by this time my father and mother must have returned.
When Sheng Chuyi arrived at the Queen's Palace, he saw two people having breakfast.
"Your son pays homage to the Emperor, Father, and the Empress." Sheng Chuyi stood at the door and saluted in a cold voice.
Chu Ning'er smiled and said, "Why are you so polite today? Stop standing here and come over to have breakfast with us."
Sheng Chuyi took a breath and looked towards Sheng Yuan.
"Shouldn't your Majesty say something?" Sheng Chuyi stood still, raised his head and looked at Sheng Yuan coldly.
Sheng Yuan put down his chopsticks in silence and sighed.
"Now that it has come to this, what do you want our father to say?" Sheng Yuan said in a deep voice, with a hint of weakness in his voice.
Sheng Chuyi sneered, "Father, my life is the life of the crown prince, the life of the future emperor. What about Chu Li's life? Isn't it the life of the royal family, the life that father and mother cherish? Just because he was picked up, he should bear all this for me, just because he was picked up, he should pave the way for my position as the emperor?"
Sheng Chuyi raised his voice as he spoke, looking at Sheng Yuan with grief and anger.
Sheng Yuan did not speak, but the aura around him changed. The majesty that only belonged to an emperor permeated his entire body, and the atmosphere in the room also grew colder.
Chu Ningmeng was shocked when she heard this, and her expression changed slightly, "Yier, shut up, don't think that you can say anything just because your father loves you. Don't you know who your father is doing this for?"
"I know, how could I not know? Was the conversation you had with me three years ago really just a misunderstanding?" Sheng Chuyi suddenly asked about what happened in the past three years.
"Three years ago, Chu Li and I made an appointment to drink that night. We talked about this matter at lunch that day. You know it. But you came to me before he came and said those words.
Now that I think about it, Father's inner strength is far superior to Chu Li and me. You must have noticed his arrival, so your tone became more and more disgusted. After he left, you started to explain that those were just your thoughts when you first picked him up. You watched him grow up little by little, and now he is no different from your own son, so you don't have those thoughts anymore. Father, is it really gone?"
"Or was it a play put on by the emperor to force him away? You know he is stubborn. He has been gone for three years. Now that he has finally come back, he is still working hard for me, the crown prince."
"Father, do you really not trust me? Do you think I won't win if I go there?" Sheng Chuyi took two steps back and leaned against the door, looking a little decadent.
Sheng Yuan looked at the table without saying anything. Chu Ningmeng wanted to stand up and stop Sheng Chuyi from speaking, but was stopped by Sheng Yuan.
Hearing this, Chu Ning'er could no longer hold back, "Saint Chu Yi, are you crazy? Your ability is obvious to all. In the past few years of supervising the country, your father has often praised you for your ability and courage. Now hearing what you said, it is really chilling."
She continued, "It's not that your father doesn't believe in your ability. You have led troops to war in the past three years. But the situation is different now. If you go to war and something happens, what will you ask your father to do, and what will you ask your mother to do?"
Sheng Chuyi yelled, "So, you're going to let the fatherless and motherless Sheng Chuli go to the battle for me? Are you going to bully him because he has no father or mother? You've treated him very well over the years, how could you bear to do that?" Sheng Chuyi lowered his voice as he spoke.
Sheng Yuan growled, "That's enough."
After he finished yelling, his voice dropped again, with a hint of guilt, "I know this is unfair to him. For so many years, your mother and I have always treated him as our own child, but after all, there is a layer of blood between us. Born in the royal family, he has no choice. Yi'er, your father is indeed ashamed of him."
"I'll explain everything to him when he comes back." Sheng Yuan said and left.
Chu Ning'er hurriedly shouted, "Breakfast isn't finished yet." But Sheng Yuan left without even looking back.
Chu Ning'er sighed, pulled Sheng Chuyi to sit at the table, and served him a bowl of porridge.
"Fortunately, we don't like other people to serve us in the room when we eat. Otherwise, if your words were to get out, I don't know what kind of fuss those ministers would make." Chu Ningrong said helplessly.
"In fact, I have also read the letter written by your father. In it, he asked about his situation in the past three years and mentioned the war between the Holy Dome Continent and the two continents. He hoped that Li'er could come back to help you and accompany you to the battlefield when the time comes."
When Chu Ning'er said this, Sheng Chu Yi suddenly looked up, grabbed Chu Ning'er's sleeve and asked, "Father asked Chu Li to accompany me to the battlefield, not to go in my place?"
Chu Ning'er nodded, her expression somewhat serious, "Yes, Yi'er, you three children grew up together. To your father and I, you are all equally important. You are our own children. We all love you dearly. How could we bear to let him go to the battlefield alone?"
"But don't blame your father. As a parent, it is really difficult to treat you equally. Maybe it's because of the blood relationship. Li'er drugged you and went to your father to insist that he go to the battle alone without you. Your father was really confused at the time and agreed."
"But what else can we do if we don't agree? Li'er has drugged you, and we can't just carry you on the carriage. What will the ministers think? Every move between you two brothers is related to the court's movements, so this matter must not be made public. We can only issue a temporary decree, saying that your father is ill and needs the crown prince to take care of him, so we are sending Li'er to the battle."
"Silly child, don't blame your father. You are kind-hearted and a wise king, but to be a true emperor, benevolence is not enough. You also need to be decisive. In this regard, you are still lacking. This is why you are unwilling to inherit the throne and your father has not urged you."
"We have always known that Li'er has no intention of that position, but his presence would also make some ministers think too much, so your father made such a fuss at the beginning to show that the throne can only be yours, and Li'er can't be the emperor. Otherwise, why do you think those old ministers who have maintained a neutral attitude for the past three years suddenly stand on your side?
But then again, the hardships of the past three years at the border have made Li'er mature a lot. How can we not feel sorry for him when we see him like that? But being born in the royal family means that you are destined not to live innocently forever. You all have your own missions on your shoulders, Yi'er, understand your father. Of course, your father loves him, he is just training him, and hopes that you brothers can help each other in the future and prolong the life of the Holy Dome Dynasty. "
Sheng Chuyi listened to Chu Ningmeng's words in silence.
He never knew about these things. It turned out that his father was also worried about them.
He only saw the immediate gains and losses, but his father's considerations were longer-term and more comprehensive than his.
He was unfilial and underestimated his parents' love for him.
"Mother, I feel guilty for the careful training you and father have given me. I will go to father to apologize now." Sheng Chuyi stood up, knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Chu Ningman, then stood up and chased in the direction Sheng Yuan left.
