The emperor married

Chu Ci avoided Chang Lv for several days, and Murui took the opportunity to laugh at Chu Ci and made Chu Ci very angry.

Chang Lv couldn't see anyone and felt disappointed, Azana was also worried and pestered him, insisting on letting him teach him how to do business.

Azana was the daughter of his benefactor, and he took care of her a lot on weekdays, and Chu Ci avoided seeing him, so Chang Lv had no choice but to give up.

He has something on his mind, and he doesn't know what Chu Ci's situation is now, so if he recognizes him rashly, he may only cause trouble.

Back then, Chang Lv was a bit complicated. He didn't know if Chu Ci knew about it. If he knew... Chang Lv's expression became cold, and he might not be able to recognize him.If he doesn't know, then he can't recognize him.

He can't burden the little boss, and he doesn't want him to feel uncomfortable.It's been so many years, maybe it's a good thing to keep it from him and never let him know.

Their caravan just came here to rest on the way back to Persia after leaving the capital. Because of Chang Lu's selfishness, they had already delayed for a long time.Chang Lu had no choice but to let go of the entanglement in his heart and concentrate on dealing with the caravan.

At this time, Chu Ci was already quietly sitting in the study of the Chu family.

The Patriarch of the Chu Family was startled by the person who suddenly appeared in front of him, Chu Ci appeared quietly, and by the time he realized it, it was already too late.

"Who is your Excellency? What's your purpose in coming to my Chu family?" The Chu family's heart skipped a beat, and he could sense that the people from Chu Ci were not kind.

Chu Ci looked at him quietly, he was a middle-aged man with white hair on his temples, and his face was a bit calm and prestige.

Chu Ci once thought that this man was the father of his body, but could the father leave his own child in Zhuangzi and ignore it, let the servants in Zhuangzi bully and abuse him, and finally die a tragic death?

But even if he is really the father of this body, his child is already dead, and Chu Ci will not have any extra emotions for him.

"Patriarch Chu is safe and sound." Chu Ci's voice was flat, "I just don't know, do you still remember that there was a wild child that you threw in the village in the countryside?"

The head of the Chu family frowned. The Chu family has not lived well in the local area these years.Jiangnan was originally a place where there were many talented people and outstanding people. Although the Chu family had the title of "relatives of the emperor", they had the five blessings several generations ago, which was too far away from the real royal family.

Anyway, they also bear the surname of Chu. Unfortunately, the Chu family in the south of the Yangtze River did not flourish because of this, but rather fell into disrepair.

Compared with the real wealthy families in Jiangnan, they are also much worse.

The head of the Chu family doesn't know the origin of the young man in front of him. Could it be that he has enmity with the Chu family?The Chu family is not considered a wealthy and prosperous family, but there are still many people who are jealous or jealous of the Chu family. Could it be that this young man is also?Thinking of this, Master Chu saw sweat on his forehead.It's just that this young man escaped from the nursing home of the Chu family and came here. I'm afraid he is an ordinary person, and the person who came here is not good.

Chu Ci naturally saw Patriarch Chu's nervousness, but he didn't take it seriously, he didn't come to attack Jie She, Patriarch Chu thought too much.

"Chu Patriarch don't need to think too much, I'm just an old friend, I just want to ask Chu Patriarch to clear up my doubts." Chu Ci comforted Chu Patriarch.

It's a pity that these words did not make Patriarch Chu relax, but made him more vigilant.

"What do you want to know? If you don't violate Chu's principles, Chu will tell you everything." The head of the Chu family is straightforward. Anyway, people want to kill me, and as long as they don't threaten the Chu family, he will not shoot.

Seeing that he calmed down so quickly, Chu Ci felt a little more admiration.

"My surname is Chu, and my name is Ci." Chu Ci didn't bother to beat around the bush, and just cut to the chase.

"What?" Patriarch Chu's face suddenly changed, his face almost turned purple, and his breathing became short of breath.

An old man named Chu who happened to be named Chu Ci, who else could there be?

When the former emperor adopted the crown prince from the Chu family in the south of the Yangtze River, I don't know how many people's jaws dropped, and how much fierce opposition they encountered.

It's a pity that the first emperor insisted on going his own way and insisted on doing this, and no one could stop him.The Chu family in Jiangnan was brought to the forefront for a time. While the late emperor himself was criticized by many people, it also brought bad luck to the Chu family in Jiangnan.

After Chu Ci became the crown prince, everyone thought that the Jiangnan Chu family was about to prosper, and there was an endless stream of fawning people for a while, as if sending the Jiangnan Chu family back to its former glory.

It's a pity that it was later spread that the adoptive crown prince of the previous emperor was nothing more than an unpopular and unfavored heir of the Chu family. After all, he was included in the genealogy and did not become an illegitimate child.

Seeing that the capital had no intention of supporting the Jiangnan Chu family, the people who came to please them gradually dispersed. What made the Chu family furious was that those people, seeing that they hadn't made any money, actually said the blind words of the Jiangnan Chu family.

Who knew that the Chu family in the south of the Yangtze River was so miserable?Put the future emperor in Zhuangzi, and let the servants who don't have eyesight bully and abuse him.It's all right now, people are developed, don't they want revenge?The Chu family in Jiangnan still wants to get ahead?Wait for retribution!

The Chu family in the south of the Yangtze River became the laughing stock of the whole Chu family for a while.

These years have finally calmed down gradually, and no one mentioned those things back then. Unfortunately, the emperor abdicated again to let the virtuous, and the Chu family in Jiangnan, which was finally clean, began to be uneasy again.

The head of the Chu family did not expect that the chief culprit who caused the entire Chu family to have no peace would actually come to him.

Patriarch Chu's face twitched a little, "It turns out that the Supreme Emperor is here, and he was greeted from afar, and he was greeted from a distance." Patriarch Chu said with a smirk, and his voice was a bit yin and yang.

Chu Ci was too lazy to care if Patriarch Chu was unhappy, he sat lazily on the chair, not treating himself as an unexpected guest at all.

"Yuanying is unnecessary. I just want to ask Patriarch Chu about something, and I hope Patriarch Chu can tell the truth." Chu Ci was hypocritically polite.

Patriarch Chu looked tired, "What the Supreme Emperor wants to know, just ask the old man directly, why do you need to be so sneaky, it makes people misunderstand the Supreme Emperor Qingyu."

The corner of Chu Ci's mouth twitched, this guy is really annoying.

"The widow just wants to know who the widow's parents are." Chu Ci didn't bother to chat with Patriarch Chu, and went straight to the point.

Patriarch Chu's complexion suddenly sank.

Chu Ci knew that he was recorded in the Chu family genealogy under the name of a younger brother of the Chu family who had died for many years. It is said that he was still a posthumous child, and his mother died after giving birth to him.

Chu Ci was very skeptical about this statement, because he had heard the tongue-twisting servant secretly chewing his tongue back then. It was rumored that he was actually the illegitimate son of Patriarch Chu. dead brother.

Before Chu Ci came, the child who died alone thought the same way.

He has always regarded the Chu family master as his own father, and even sneaked out of Zhuangzi, waiting on the street for a whole day, just wanting to see his "father".

It's a pity that father didn't see him, but he was beaten up by the servants who took him back, and he starved for several days.

The child was looking forward and looking forward, hoping that his "father" would remember him, take him back to the big yard, give him a lot of food to eat, and give him a lot of new clothes to wear.

It's a pity that he didn't even see his "father" until he died, and he didn't even know what his "father" looked like.The only time was when Patriarch Chu took his children to go for an outing and stayed in that village for one night. The child sneaked up on the corner of the wall and saw a tall figure from behind.That's all.

He even fell off the broken chair on which he was padded, and his knee was bruised and swollen for days.Even though he was obviously limping and unable to stand still, the children of Zhuangzi's subordinates would still throw stones and spit at him from outside the wall.He still had to do the work he wasn't supposed to do.

It was also after the child died once that no one dared to order him to work. After all, he had the surname of Chu and was on the genealogy.After Chu Ci came, he could live a clean life, and quietly supported himself.I didn't starve to death, I didn't freeze to death, I didn't die from exhaustion, and I wasn't beaten to death.

Seeing Patriarch Chu's expression change, Chu Ci didn't urge him, and waited patiently.

He stretched out one hand, and tapped his fingers on the table lightly, one sound after another was not noisy, but it seemed to be hitting Patriarch Chu's heart.

After a while, Patriarch Chu sighed dejectedly, and said helplessly, "The old man probably already knows the purpose of the Supreme Emperor's visit."

Chu Ci nodded and didn't answer, but the knocking sound became heavier again.

"Actually, I don't know either." Patriarch Chu said.

Chu Ci was taken aback for a moment, and then his expression turned sour, "Patriarch Chu, I didn't want to hear this when I came to you in the middle of the night."

Patriarch Chu smiled wryly, "Since the Supreme Emperor asked this, why did the old man lie to you?"

He shook his head in distress, "You were approached by my father to the Chu family back then, and when my father brought you back, he personally created the genealogy for you."

The head of the Chu family looked a little strange, "We were all surprised, and even strongly opposed it. How could such a child of unknown origin be settled in the Chu family casually?"

"It's a pity that my father was determined to do this at the time, and it was useless to object. And he repeatedly emphasized that you are a child of the Chu family, and you can only be a child of the Chu family."

Patriarch Chu took a complicated look at Chu Ci, "The old man didn't understand what my father meant, and even got into a tantrum with him. Now that I think about it, maybe my father knows something."

Chu Ci's heart sank, he didn't expect such a result, he was actually brought back by the old Patriarch.

"My father has passed away for many years. Those who knew the inside story were either too old to go with my father, or they were sent away by my father. There is no news." The head of the Chu family shook his head, "What does the emperor want to know, old man I'm afraid it won't be of much help."

Chu Ci was silent, he couldn't accept the result at all.

"Didn't the old Patriarch leave any words before his death?" Chu Ci did not give up.

Patriarch Chu shook his head, "Nothing."
