"Why did the father treat my son like this? What did my son do wrong?!" Tu Wenhuai opened his eyes again, trying his best to move his eyes away from the blood stains in the courtyard, and try to ignore the blood lingering on the nose. The bloody smell at the end; he forced himself to be calm, and looked at Tu Gaocheng who didn't pay attention to this scene at all.Tu Wenhuai has never realized so clearly like this moment that his father, even though he is only wearing a simple uniform at the moment, is also an emperor who kills and decides, and controls the life, death, honor and disgrace of the world.

Tu Gaocheng turned his cold eyes to him, and Tu Wenhuai felt a chill in his bones.

"Killing parents and children, indulging in masculinity—" Tu Gaocheng thought of Tu Xiyin who he had just visited by himself. Although this grandson was still young, he was quite well-behaved and sensible. Thinking about Tu Wenshen's two children, could it be true? Is it because the father is not up to date, so the extremes of things are reversed?Seeing that Tu Wenhuai was still dazed with an expression of not knowing what happened, Tu Gaocheng shook his head secretly in his heart: "The imperial doctor diagnosed that my daughter's voice is damaged, and I may not be able to speak in the future—you have committed evil, and you will be able to speak in the future." Stay here!"

Can't make a sound? !Tu Wenhuai's pupils shrank, recalling Tu Gaocheng's two words just now, his body trembled.Tu Xijin is his only child at the moment, and he is also a legitimate son. Tu Gaocheng is strict with his sons, but he loves the grandchildren below him very much. In addition, his heirs also have influence on the succession of the throne, so Although Tu Wenhuai didn't like his mother, he valued him.Now that he heard the bad news, Tu Wenhuai felt his eyes darkened and his head was buzzing.

Standing outside the hall in the main courtyard, through the door, you can still hear the moaning and low weeping inside, Tu Gaocheng sighed inwardly, originally Tu Wenhuai had no heirs, but this only male fell into a catastrophe... He was thinking about it, but saw the door curtain moved, and Ning Shi came out from the house.

After confirming that her son's life was no longer in danger, Ning's hanging heart finally fell. Although the loss of voice was almost destructive to his son's future, compared to losing his life, it was already God's pity.After hearing the servant girl's report that the emperor had come from the study, she hurriedly tidied up her appearance, and the third concubine who was always dignified and gentle appeared in front of Tu Gaocheng.

"My daughter-in-law has seen the father, my son has just woken up once, and now she is in a bad mood, and fell asleep again!" Ning came forward respectfully and saluted her disciple Gao Cheng. What is more is a mother's love and pity for her son: "Thank you father and emperor for your kindness, and send an imperial doctor here—otherwise, I'm afraid, I'm afraid..." Thinking of the terrible consequences that will happen, Ning's emotions that had been restrained just now broke the embankment again, and she couldn't make a sound.

Ning is the attendant of Tu Gaocheng's eldest daughter, Princess Xiuyue. She was only eight years old when she first entered the palace, and she has been watched by Tu Gaocheng since she grew up; seeing that Ning is wearing the gorgeous crown dress of the imperial concubine level, but the makeup is not enough. Shi's face was pale and his eyelids were red and swollen, and he looked even more miserable. Tu Gaocheng couldn't help but think of his eldest daughter who was far away in the fiefdom, and sighed: "It's that scoundrel who created the karma, so please take care of her and teach her carefully." , I will guarantee him peace and prosperity for the rest of his life!"

Hearing Tu Gaocheng's words, Ning slammed her knees straight on the ground with a "plop": "My daughter-in-law, on behalf of my son-in-law, thank you for your kindness!" This is enough for a lifetime of peace and wealth, and as for the husband in name, The moment she saw him go crazy drunk and strangle her young son's neck, Ning's heart was already disheartened, and she no longer had the hope of the past.

......

As soon as the news that the third prince, Tu Wenhuai, was imprisoned for life because of his lack of virtue and improper behavior, it caused a shock in the ruling and opposition parties.Many people are secretly speculating and watching. Since the third prince has fallen, does that mean that the Zhen family, which has always been arrogant and domineering, has also lost its sacred heart?If this is the case, the wealthy land in the south of the Yangtze River, which has been controlled by the Zhen family for many years, can get a share of the pie——

Amidst such turmoil, the news that the second prince, Tu Wenfu, had come out of Fengxian Palace only aroused the opinions of a few people.

"My son, are you willing to obey your mother's decision?" A kind-eyed old man with white beard and beard sat behind Zhuo Zhuo, and calmly uttered a shocking and very tempting sentence: "Then It is the high position of the son of heaven, holding power, the [-]th Five-Year Honor! If you still have thoughts about that position, and just give up for the sake of filial piety to your mother and making her happy, then there is no need--grandfather and your uncles will know help you!"

Hearing his grandfather's words, Tu Wenfu's eyes were slightly turbulent, but he was not ambitious*. He bowed down and bowed deeply to this tolerant and kind grandfather: "Over the years, it is all thanks to my grandfather's careful cultivation. However, I found that my talent is not in power struggles, if possible, I want to gather learned people from all over the world, classify the precious books in the royal library, compile them into index books, and pass them on to the world for the benefit of the world!" This is Tu Wenfu came up with the idea after careful consideration after copying the ancestor's legacy for nearly ten days in Fengxian Hall.

Seeing his grandson's clear and firm eyes, Mrs. Chen burst out laughing, Lao Huai stood up and leaned forward in relief, and patted Tu Wenfu's shoulder: "Good boy! The benevolent man of the past, the book will be handed down for generations to come. There are too many to list, my son, if you have such an ambition, grandpa should explain it to you! Let go and do it!"

Suddenly the situation reversed, and being praised by the elders he always respected, Tu Wenfu was so excited that a faint blush appeared on his cheeks: "Yes! Grandfather, I will definitely go all out and never disappoint your expectations!"

After the grandparents and grandson exchanged a few words of pleasantries, Tu Wenfu went back excitedly and prepared to list specific matters for implementation.Through the window, the flowers and shadows helped Shu, and seeing Tu Wenfu's upright back disappearing outside the door, Old Master Chen smiled.He picked out a page from a stack of papers on the desk, browsed through it carefully, crumpled it into a ball and threw it into the water jar beside the desk, then took out another piece of paper, and wrote on it.

In the quiet courtyard of Cui's mansion, the bamboo grove was rustling with the wind, and an old man who was also in good spirits was sitting on a stone bench.He unfolded a piece of letter paper in his hand, and after reading it, he didn't know whether it was a pity or a surprise "Huh", and then raised his brows, and sighed with some regret: "I really asked this old boy to tell the truth, but That's right, he taught it after all—" After finishing speaking, he folded the letter paper and stuffed it into his sleeve.

"Grandfather bet with Mrs. Chen again?" A soft female voice sounded from the door.

Cui Yuzhang followed the sound and saw that Cui's upper body was a pipa lapel gown with a shisha color and ancient patterns, and a lake green embroidered cotton skirt underneath. Although it was not as noble and compelling as in the past when she was a princess, she was more energetic, bright and beautiful Gentle, he nodded in satisfaction.Squinting his eyes to catch a glimpse of the small figure following Cui, Cui Yuzhang waved his hands with crooked eyebrows: "Xichen, come here, come to great-grandfather, great-grandfather will give you something nice!"

Seeing her son and grandfather talking to each other in harmony, Cui smiled lightly, put the tray in his hand on the stone table, and interrupted their conversation: "Grandfather, you, Use this soup first, then it's not too late to talk to Xichen—" Seeing the reluctance in Cui Yuzhang's eyes, she winked at Tu Xichen.

Tu Xichen received a hint from his mother, and quickly said with a smile: "Great-grandfather, drink your medicine quickly! I also have a good thing to watch with you!"

It is said that old children are indeed true. Cui Shi pursed her lips and smiled as she watched her grandfather get excited by Tu Xichen's few words. She stuffed it with her purse: "Xichen, you stay here with your great-grandfather. When it's evening, mother will come and pick you up!"

Tu Xichen nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and the little adult waved his hand solemnly at Cui Shi: "Mother, go! I will listen to my great-grandfather, and I will not allow my great-grandfather to eat more candies, and supervise my great-grandfather. In the evening, I will add clothes, and I will also help my great-grandfather carry flower pots and cut bamboo!"

Rao, it was not the first time that Cui had heard such sensible words from her son, she still felt her heart tightening.

Since the crown prince was abolished and banned in February, and she and her two children, Meng En, were able to live in another house, Cui chose to buy a house near the resting place of her natal grandfather. Cui Yuzhang always loved this granddaughter, so he ordered the two It was repaired and opened up to facilitate the Cui family to come and go, and by the way, he could also teach his great-grandson.

It has been four or five months since I lived here. Seeing the two sons and daughters change from being depressed at the beginning to being positive and optimistic now, Cui feels very grateful for her grandfather.In addition, Gao Cheng, the apprentice in the palace, will order someone to send some things over every ten days and a half months, which also shows the royal family's attitude towards the two children as always. Cui's life is not as miserable as outsiders imagined. .

"Mother, brother stayed with great-grandfather again?" Tu Yueshu was sitting on the kang in front of the window, holding an embroidered stretcher in his hand, practicing the homework assigned by the nanny. To begin with, seeing Cui Shi coming back alone as usual, she knew it in her heart.

Cui nodded, remembering what she had just learned from her mother, she hesitated whether she should mention it to her daughter.

It was Tu Yueshu who noticed the change in Cui's mood. She raised her face and asked doubtfully, "Mother, is there anything you want to discuss with your daughter?"

"When your imperial grandfather was visiting the imperial garden, he saw a golden osmanthus tree blooming early. It happened that Concubine Chen Guifei was recovering from illness, so your imperial grandfather said it was auspicious—" Thinking about those things in the palace, Cui felt as if she was in the past and present. : "He wants to take this opportunity to hold an osmanthus feast, to get rid of the bad temper that has been going on for the past few days, and he will definitely post to us--Mother doesn't want to fight with those people anymore. When the time comes, do you want to go?"

Since the crown prince forced the palace in February, Cheng Qiang did not say anything about it, and the so-called rebellious organizations of the folks took advantage of the aftermath of the abolition of the crown prince to make a fuss. It was not peaceful, and it was not quite stable until a few days ago.Although Cui shi never left home with her two children, she also knew a thing or two about these things from Cui Yuzhang.

To be honest, after these few months of peaceful life, she is not willing to let Cui Shi get involved in those open and secret fights, but her daughter is different from herself. In this small partial house.There are so many snobbish people in the world, Cui Shi remembers clearly how the prince's mansion was empty back then, but she always had to consider the happiness of her daughter's life.

Hearing this, Tu Yueshu put down the half-embroidered handkerchief in his hand, tilted his head and thought about it seriously: "It's okay if mother doesn't go, but my daughter must go! After all, my daughter is getting older. Things like this will be inevitable in the future; why not take advantage of the grandfather's guilt towards mother and love for his daughter now, and make plans for younger brother!" Facing Cui's distressed eyes, she took Cui's hand , Wen Sheng comforted: "My daughter is also the majestic Princess Lekang. Whoever dares to be unreasonable to her daughter is disrespectful to the emperor's grandfather! Mother, don't worry—"

Seeing her daughter in a delicate pink white butterfly wearing a flowery skirt, it should still be a good time to be sticky and coquettish in the arms of her parents, but she looks much older because she has to worry about her mother and younger brother, Cui only feels heartwarming and sad , stretched out his hand to caress his daughter's tender cheek lovingly: "Mother knows—"

......

After reading the letter paper in her hand from beginning to end, Shi Qingwan smiled sweetly and turned to the two sons and daughters who were sitting in rows waiting for their mother to read the letter. She smiled and nodded their little noses: "Today! Daddy didn't leave a message for Ce'er and Sheng'er—" Looking at the swollen bun faces of the two children, she stretched out her slender finger and poked it: "But you two can think about what you want to bring tonight. Go back to the capital, daddy will come to pick us up tomorrow afternoon!"

Wang Lingsheng's eyes lit up all of a sudden, and he raised his hand to report: "I want to bring the little rabbit! The fragrant thorn roses! I also want to bring Mrs. Jiang!"

Before Wang Congce, who also raised his hand, could speak, Shi Qingwan burst out laughing, pointing to the embroidered woman standing beside her, who should be called Jiang Decheng's family now: "Tell me quickly, how did you coax her?" Heart? It's rare for this girl to like someone so much!"

Jiang Decheng's family pursed their lips and smiled softly, a little shy. In the past few years of being married, her husband has been obedient to her, and her daily life is smooth without disputes, so she is still very thin-skinned: "I miss Mrs. I really like the things made by these flowers and plants, and the girl Xiaomu, maybe she likes it too! The little tiger is not suitable, so I sewed one according to the little rabbit raised by the girl, and stuffed it with a freshly dried one in summer. Rose petals—"

When Shi Qingwan was young, she followed her grandparents and played with pens, inks, papers and inkstones. Unlike other girls who are all dolls and puppets, she did not expect this. She nodded: "You have a heart—" Yes Shang Wang Lingsheng blinked her big eyes, she waved her hand, and pointed to the undulating dark green and light green outside the window: "Aunt Jiang can't go with us, there is a large farm here, but Aunt Jiang has to take care of it! Sheng'er, if we take Mrs. Jiang away, the next time we come, the fields here, the saplings you planted will be deserted if no one takes care of them!"

The meaning of barrenness, Wang Lingsheng listened to the uncle who farmed the land. Hearing this, she wrinkled her little face and reluctantly gave up: "That's all right!" Standing up from the small stool, pedaling to Jiang Beside Decheng's family, the fleshy little hands are breaking each other's fingers: "The hook must not be changed for 100 years, wait for the next time I come, Mrs. Jiang will take good care of this place!"

Seeing how cute her little master is, Xiufu, who has always wanted to have a daughter, was overjoyed, so she clasped Wang Lingsheng's broad bean-like little finger and said, "Enen, I promise girl!" Wang Congce also forgot that he wanted to What to say, inserted directly between the two of them, whispering to Wang Lingsheng and biting ears.

Shi Qingwan looked at the various promises between the big and the young with a smile, and looked up at the few wisps of cloud floating in the sky outside the window.Osmanthus feast—I'm afraid there will be another busy time when I return home in the capital; the matter of seizing the heirloom is basically over now, and the emperor's choice is probably the fourth prince who was rescued by his own boat on the Jinling River back then?Although unexpected, it seems reasonable...
