Later, I became the prince of the group

The father-in-law who passed the message was young and honest, and he passed the conversation outside into the bedroom in detail.

Chu Hong frowned. As soon as Zhu Shengyou was sent to him, Chu He came to his door to intercede.

It is true that they are cousins, but they don't have a good relationship on weekdays. Chu He works hard to please his father, and it is absolutely impossible for him to hang out with a dude like Zhu Shengyou for a long time, but he still came to intercede.

Why else, please, his uncle.

Thinking of Cheng Guogong, Emperor Chengxing's face was not very good.

It's true that he likes the concubine, but it doesn't mean that he also likes the concubine's ambitious natal family.Chu He has gotten closer and closer to the Zhu family these years, even closer to his uncle than to his father, how could Emperor Chengxing have no idea.

Moreover, Cheng Guogong asked Chu He to intercede, and it was impossible for Chu He not to ask what happened. Since he knew that his elder brother was humiliated, he didn't say a word for his elder brother, but for a foreigner who was outspoken and disrespectful to the royal family. Pleading, what kind of reasoning is this?

He suppressed his anger, and maintained a calm face: "Come here, take the second prince back to Qingju Palace immediately, confine him for a month, and copy ten books every day."

He thought for a while, but felt that he couldn't get angry again, and continued: "The eldest prince is confined to the palace for one month."

The little father-in-law dutifully went down to pass on the message, and then Emperor Chengxing tidied up his clothes and prepared to go to court.

When he went out, Chu Yan was still kneeling, and Emperor Chengxing paused: "I told you to go back and ground your feet, why are you kneeling here?"

Chu Yan bowed his head: "I'm so angry with my father, I want to coax you."

Emperor Chengxing: "..."

The emperor left angrily, and the guards at the door looked at each other, wondering whether they should drive Chu Yan away. The two exchanged eyes and gestures for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion: Your Majesty didn't tell King An to go back immediately, so it's better to leave him alone .

So when Emperor Chengxing came down to court, he saw Chu Yan still kneeling upright.

He found that this kid had become addicted to kneeling recently, and when he got better, he not only started to torment himself, but also to torment him, the father.

When Emperor Chengxing walked to the door of the sleeping hall, he paused, turned around and called Chu Yan in.

Chu Yan was a little uncertain about what Emperor Chengxing was thinking at the moment, and was about to continue kneeling cheekily, when he saw the maid come in with a bowl of medicine, and put it respectfully in front of the case.

Chu Yan said, "Where is the father uncomfortable?"

Emperor Chengxing squinted at him, and said casually: "My head hurts, I'm angry with you."

Chu Yan was silent for a while, and boldly stepped forward, stopped Liang Ye who was about to test the medicine for His Majesty, and took a spoonful of it himself.

At the end, he said: "There is a medicine that I recognize, it is a medicine for treating wind and cold."

He can be regarded as a doctor after a long illness, and he was given all kinds of medicines when he came to this world. It's hard not to remember.

Seeing that he changed the spoon to feed the medicine, Emperor Chengxing took the bowl directly, breathed a sigh of relief, and gave Liang Ye a wink, the eunuch took the empty bowl down, and took away the servants in the palace, shutting down Come and guard the door.

There were only two people left in the dormitory, and it was quiet for a while.

Chu Yan went down and knelt down obediently, and heard Emperor Chengxing ask: "What else do you want to do, I thought you were really filial and wanted to relieve me, but who knew you let me watch a good show, don't think I don't know that you made a deliberate design for that Liu Qi, now it's all over, the third child of the Zhu family has become a commoner, are you satisfied?"

Chu Yan thought to himself: Why does it sound so wronged.

He only regarded it as his own illusion, and said: "My son's concubine is humiliated, my son can't just watch."

"So even I dare to plot it?" Emperor Chengxing sneered, "You are becoming more and more courageous. You were naive and sensible at first, but you have learned these tricks in just a few months. I pity you for following you everywhere. Did you just learn to take advantage of my favor?"

"I know I was wrong." Chu Yan said softly, "I acted confusedly, and felt uneasy afterwards, thinking that my father was disturbed by troubles, but he deceived my father, which made my father even more troubled... and even caught a cold , Erchen... I feel sorry..."

Emperor Chengxing listened quietly, feeling better.

At least compared to the heartless younger brothers below, Chu Yan at least knows how to care about herself.

I just don't know how much of this concern is sincere, and how much is for excuses.

Emperor Chengxing became a little suspicious, obviously not so angry, but he couldn't help speaking sharply: "When you deceived the emperor, why didn't you think that you would feel sorry? It is reasonable for you to vent your anger for your princess, but even if you beat him up , It’s better than borrowing my hand. I know what you want. If you do it yourself, let him take the lead. Once the matter breaks out, I have no reason to help you. You are guarding against me and afraid that I won’t do it. Will you stand up for you and punish you instead? Or must Zhu Shengyou be charged with a crime and cannot stand up, so as to eliminate the hatred of your humiliation! Since you have resented him so far, do you also resent me! "

These words came down so hard that even Liang Ye who heard the movement outside the door trembled, thinking to himself why is His Highness doing this, go back and be locked up for a while, His Majesty's anger may dissipate after a while, so he insists on staying here , isn't this forcing His Majesty to vent his anger?

Chu Yan was calm in his heart, and could even bring himself into the perspective of his original body in an instant, facing Emperor Chengxing with the reaction of a young man who was frankly yearning for family affection and was suspected and accused by his adoring father.

He stared blankly at His Majesty for a long time, then lowered his head in embarrassment, his eyes were a little more frightened and lonely, after a long while he seemed to have regained his composure, only the hand hanging by his side was still trembling.

There was a bit of self-mockery and bitterness on his face: "I'm telling the truth, since I recovered, I often think of the past, if I don't blame my parents for being cruel, even I don't believe it."

Emperor Chengxing didn't expect him to admit it, and he didn't react for a while.

"During those few years, when I was wronged, I wanted to find my parents, thinking that I just left home, and as long as they were by my side, I would get the benefits of being a son of man...but no." Chu Yan's soul remained Another thought in his mind seemed to be touched, forcing him to barely suppress the choking in his voice.

"Your dragon chariot passed me by without even looking at me. I was so hungry that I didn't have the strength to chase you, but I was a little puzzled—was that my father just now?"

"I didn't see you for so long afterwards that I didn't recognize you."

The emperor's cup hit him and shattered on the ground, Chu Yan remained expressionless, he knew that if the cup wanted to hit him at such a short distance, it would definitely hit him.

"Now God blesses me and allows me to recover. I complained at first, but after seeing you and the queen mother have worked hard for me, I dare not complain anymore. In my son's heart, being a king and marrying a wife seem to be too much. It's far away. Compared with it, eating enough, wearing warm clothes, and being protected by someone is the biggest wish. If I can be so comfortable and happy for the rest of my life, wouldn't that be enough? So I dare not complain to you I’m afraid I’ll push away this hard-earned love.” Chu Yan said, “But actually, my son also wants to complain to you, and tells you all the bullying he has suffered in the past, and wants to tell you Say I don't blame you, I just want your love and love."

"But it's been so long since I woke up. It's no longer the age to be coquettish and lazy in front of my parents. If I'm spoiled and crooked, will I be bored? If I'm ignorant and incompetent, will others still treat me like that? I'm as easy to bully as a fool? If I'm not mature enough, will one day... you and the queen don't want to see me anymore?"

"My son is actually very greedy. I want to compete for favor and gain the approval of you and the queen mother. Since I woke up, I have been practicing martial arts and literature day and night. I just want you to know that my son is also useful and definitely not useless."

Emperor Chengxing pursed his lips and closed his eyes: "Ayan..."

Chu Yan didn't shed a single tear, but his eyes were red: "Father, if my son doesn't let Zhu Shengyou turn over, he and even more people will bully me or Aqi in the future. I can ask you to be the master for me, but I am afraid that you will be bored three times and four times. Therefore, I thought, let you hear those insulting words with your own ears, so that the Duke of Cheng has nothing to say, and no one will embarrass you , I did this for myself, but I never thought of hurting you."

He took a deep breath, kowtowed heavily, and didn't get up for a long time.

This knock was hard, and it hurt more than expected. It made Chu Yan feel a little dizzy, and there was a buzzing in his ears. He only felt a hand supporting him. When he raised his head, something flowed down , couldn't help raising his hand blankly.

Chu Yan: "..."

Forgot there were broken pieces of porcelain on the ground.

Emperor Chengxing was very angry and funny, he quickly asked someone to call the imperial doctor, and thought to himself: I just said a few angry words, but he has a lot of things waiting for me.

But he didn't say a word to Chu Yan until the imperial doctor came to bandage him up and checked everything was fine.

He looked at Chu Yan with an uneasy expression on his face. After all, he was a little soft-hearted before he was about to leave, and he said, "You go back and confine yourself to confinement for a few days. In this way, no matter whether it is the noble concubine of the Zhu family or Chu He, there will be no shame for Zhu Shengyou anymore. I beg for mercy, and I dare not trouble you secretly."

The string in Chu Yan's heart loosened slightly, thank you for your kindness.

He should have won the bet. I hope that from now on, no matter whether he is too sharp, does something wrong, shows his scheming, or is provoked by others, his father can think of today's conversation and stand on his side preconceived.

After he left, Emperor Chengxing closed his eyes and rested his mind, and suddenly asked the eunuch who was playing with the teacup: "Liang Ye, what do you think of Prince An?"

Liang Ye paused, stepped back quickly, bowed his head and bowed his head: "This old slave dare not talk about the prince."

Seeing his nervous and terrified look, Emperor Chengxing couldn't help but sneered: "It's okay, just say what you want, the boss has been by my side for a long time, and I'm surprised that he has the temperament to say everything."

Liang Ye understood that this meant for him to be blunt, so he continued to make tea, thought carefully and said, "His Royal Highness King An is extremely talented, quick-witted, and willing to work hard, but in the eyes of this old slave , the most precious thing is his temper."

Emperor Chengxing raised his eyelids: "Sex?"

"That's right." Liang Ye's tone was family-like, his eyes narrowed with a smile, but his real feelings were even more evident, "Every time the old servant takes His Majesty's orders to visit His Highness, His Highness will come to greet you in person, and just open his mouth to ask how you are. Well, after the old slave finishes his work, he can have a cup of hot tea and a few pastries at Wang An's place."

Emperor Chengxing laughed, thinking how a few pieces of pastry bought you, an old bastard.

"The little eunuch next to His Highness is called Xin Qing. It is said that he was punished to kneel in the snow before, and his knee was broken. When the humidity is heavy in winter, he will suffer from pain. When His Highness lived in Fengyi Palace, the old I have seen His Royal Highness personally smear medicinal wine on Xinqing."

Emperor Chengxing's expression suddenly became complicated: "Really?"

Seeing that he seemed to have misunderstood him, Liang Ye quickly explained: "Really, even those cleaning outside the courtyard, even if they just slipped and let His Highness see you, he will help him and tell you to go back and see if there is a sprained foot. When I have time, I come to him to get medicine, and I am very careful. I can’t talk about any big reasons, I only know that His Highness King An treats us servants very well, and every time I go to see His Highness, this old slave is very happy."

"Then you say, does he hold a grudge against me?"

If there is room for trickery in the previous question, this question is really difficult to answer.

Liang Ye pondered anxiously for a long time before speaking the truth: "The old slave thinks that His Highness's mind was like an ignorant child during those years when he was ill. I'm afraid he may not understand what he lacks..."

"what do you mean……"

"If His Highness had matured precociously when he was a young governor, and knew what kind of cold reception he had received, he might indeed have resentment, but he didn't know his mind back then. Such a young child doesn't know much, and he has long regarded such days as routine. Naturally, there is no hatred. The old slave thinks that His Highness might be wronged, but he won't hold grudges against you." After speaking, Liang Ye knelt down.

Unknowingly, the early spring of a certain year appeared in front of Emperor Chengxing's eyes.

The first bunch of winter jasmine had just bloomed, and he accompanied a certain high-spirited concubine to enjoy the flowers. When he passed a dense bush, he saw Xinqing looking for someone. The child was so scared that he knelt on the ground and couldn't speak when he saw him. He couldn't vomit clearly, and just as he was about to yell at him, a mud monkey emerged from the grass next to it, holding up its two paws and pretending to be naive and fierce to scare the concubine——

"How decent is Cheng! What do the servants think! The eldest prince is not clear-headed, and neither are you?"

No one dared to make a sound around, Xinqing was so anxious that she was about to cry: "I, I know, I know I was wrong, Your Majesty, calm down, calm down..."

Emperor Chengxing glanced at the young man who had been bluffed for a while, Chu Yan. He stared blankly at him, and looked at him boldly for a while, and looked at others again, as if he didn't know why it was like this. After a while, he suddenly stood up. Get up, slowly walk to Xinqing and squat down.

"Presumptuous! Kneel for me..."

At that time, he was almost as tall as a concubine, but he looked thinner than the other concubines. He only had a thin undergarment on his body. Needless to say, he must have gotten sick and ran out after getting up from the bed. I don't know how his body can withstand such a biting spring cold.

He smiled and held up a large handful of winter jasmine flowers he picked in his hand to Xinqing. Seeing that he would not pick them up, he stuck them on his head one by one: "Xinqing, Xinqing, don't cry, let's go play." , I will dress you up as a big girl..."

He knows neither cold nor fear.

Emperor Chengxing only felt ashamed, and asked the accompanying guards to hold him down and beat him several times, finally beating him honestly.Emperor Chengxing thought that he knew he was scared now and didn't dare to make trouble anymore, so he asked the guards to let him go.

Who knew that the eldest prince struggled even to get up, but he didn't shed a single tear. He turned over and lay flat on the ground like a skinny face, looking at him with his head tilted, his eyes full of confusion: "Why did you hit me?"

Then he laughed again: "If you beat me, then you have to exchange something good with me, otherwise I will go to my father and complain. I want to eat white sugar shortbread, and I want two pieces!"

He sniffled, as if he had already smelled the scent of shortbread: "A piece is fine, do you have any?"

Those ignorant and fearless eyes traveled through several seasons, and were fixed in the dormitory with mottled light and shadow in spring, wrapped in a thin coolness, dispelling the groggy mind.

Emperor Chengxing closed his eyes, and his voice gradually softened: "Call the imperial dining room, and make some sugar shortbread."

"Send it to His Highness King An?" Liang Ye remembered that King An used to like to eat this food.

"No, just put it here, I will eat it when I wake up."

I discovered that writing about father-son relationship is always smoother than writing about love...

Originally, I wanted to finish this chapter with 6000 codes and make up and update together, but I found that it was time for me to write an outline, and the outline in my head has no future!So the supplementary chapter goes a little further..._(:3)∠)_
