“As for you, since Ye Jingche is still your brother, then even though you are angry, that is your brother after all.
Xu Nuanwen looked at Ye Jingxing, and just as she finished speaking, Ye Jingxing immediately ignored what Xu Nuanwen had said before. She only thought about what she had said at the end, and looked towards Xu Nuanwen in embarrassment to confirm: “aggrieved? I am already such a big person, and yet I feel wronged towards the Royal Father? ”
“Of course, did you forget the news that the empress had spread? Furthermore, stand at the Royal Father’s position and think about it. Your son is sixty years old, and that would still be your son. ”
As soon as Xu Nuanwen finished speaking, Ye Jingxing instantly understood what was going on.
He felt that he wasn’t young anymore. If his eldest son got married early, he might have already carried a grandson.
That was why his son felt that he had been wronged. He wanted to find Royal Father to say that he had been wronged, but in the end, because that person was his big brother, he resisted.
This was too normal!
Actually, it wasn’t that Ye Jingxing didn’t think of it, it was just that he didn’t want to think about it before.
In his heart, his Royal Father was the emperor.
But it was only at this point that he had no choice but to admit that his Royal Father was truly not a qualified emperor.
As for his father …
Ye Jingxing closed his eyes. He could not help but sigh in his heart when he thought of the crown prince’s big brother who had always been smiling and patiently teaching him how to write.
More than ten years ago, when his crown prince’s brother’s family met with an accident, he had never imagined the name ‘father’ ever again.
After so many years, he was already used to using the perspective of a subject to face an emperor, but he had forgotten the reaction a son should have at this time.
When Xu Nuanwen saw that she had closed his eyes, she knew that he had thought of the crown prince. She extended her hand and held Ye Jingxing’s hand, then said: “Don’t think too much about it, as long as Royal Father is still alive, we will not act against him in a hurry. I think that as long as we do not act against Ye Jingche, Royal Father will not be angry at you. ”
However, if Ye Jingche was unable to resist and made the first move, she believed that the Xu Family, the previous Hu Family, and the connections left by the previous crown prince would not go easy on him.
In the Fifth Prince Palace, Xu Nuanwen had just consoled Ye Jingxing and told him about the influence of the current matter in the Xu Family.
“Now this matter is not something we can simply stop ourselves from doing. Since His Majesty took the last bit of the Zheng Family’s military power, the Zheng Family didn’t dare to hate His Majesty. Furthermore, even though the military power is in the hands of the Prince Duan, I still have the best future prospects for the young generation of generals. So from now on, we have another enemy. ”
There was something Xu Shiqiu did not tell Dong Shu. He kept having the feeling that the attitude of the imperial family towards his family’s Young Girl was amiss, that he viewed her too highly.
Thinking about the matter of the royal family’s calamity that he had heard earlier, Xu Shiqiu made a wild guess in his heart. His own Young Girl was probably the only way for the royal family to survive this calamity.
That was the reason why the Emperor Ruikang placed so much importance on him, and treated his Young Girl with such an attitude.
Yes, that must be it!
Dong Shu didn’t know what Xu Shiqiu was thinking at the moment. She mulled over what Xu Shiqiu had just said, and after thinking seriously for a while, she nodded at Xu Shiqiu: “Husband, don’t worry, I’ll stay at home as long as I can, and don’t go out these few days. Even if they wanted to harm me, they probably wouldn’t have a chance.”
Hearing his own Young Girl’s direct words, Xu Shiqiu did not know what to say.
What else could he say?
Tell Young Girl, you have been chosen by the royal family, could it be because you have good fortune?
The reason why the royal family is so courteous to you, is because they feel that their royal family’s calamity is your only chance of survival?
The more he thought about it, the more Xu Shiqiu felt that he shouldn’t tell this to the Young Girl, otherwise, she would definitely keep thinking about this matter.
The most important thing was, if Young Girl found out about this matter, would she still be able to act as naturally as he was now when she faced the people from the imperial family in the future?
Xu Shiqiu did not dare to gamble, so he could only suppress the matter in his heart.
Fortunately, Xu Shiqiu did not tell his all this. Two days later, when the Empress Hu let Dong Shu enter the palace, she had ‘coincidentally’ met the Emperor Ruikang and the Master Xuan Ling outside the Phoenix Palace.
Because Dong Shu was influenced by the Empress Hu, she was not very intimate with him, but when facing the Master Xuan Ling, even if she already knew his identity, she still treated him with the same attitude she always did.
Master Xuan Ling could naturally feel that Dong Shu’s attitude towards him had not changed, so after Dong Shu left and headed towards the Phoenix Palace, he directly looked towards Emperor Ruikang and said, “Fortunately, she did not hate the Imperial Family.” After saying that, the Master Xuan Ling paused for a moment, then looked at Emperor Ruikang and asked: “Che’er has yet to go to the Xu Family to apologize?”
Emperor Ruikang was also stunned when he heard Master Xuan Ling’s words.
He also did not expect that up until now, Ye Jingche still had not gone to apologize with his Xu Family, “It seems that the rumors had already been spread, saying that this was the work of a female servant from the inner chamber after hearing him praising Madame Dong.”
Both Emperor Ruikang and Master Xuan Ling knew that this was an excuse Ye Jingche had given them, because what he had done was not something that a gentleman should do.
As for pushing this matter onto a woman, although Emperor Ruikang was unhappy, he knew that it was not good to say anything more.
When Master Xuan Ling saw the expression on Emperor Ruikang’s face, he could guess what he was thinking. After he sighed in his heart, he looked at Emperor Ruikang and said, “After the Imperial Family passes through this calamity, I will leave for the capital to travel.”
This was evidently the first time that the Emperor Ruikang had heard him talk about this plan of his. After being stunned for a moment, he directly asked: “Where are you going? When will you be back? ”
“I can’t decide where I will go, and I can’t tell when I will return.”
After leaving behind the two ‘unknown’ words, Master Xuan Ling turned around and left.
If it wasn’t for the life and death of the Imperial Family, he wouldn’t have interfered in so many things.
Since he had chosen to leave home, the matters of the royal family should no longer have anything to do with him.
But he was unwilling, thinking about how Royal Father would hold his hand with a face of reluctance before he passed away, he was unwilling.
No matter who this Jiang Shan was, he was after all the descendant of his Royal Father. Since he could protect him, he would protect him.
If one day he could no longer protect himself, and went to see his Royal Father again, he could also say that he was not ungrateful.
Following the sound of a sigh, the back of the Master Xuan Ling walked further and further away.
Looking at the Master Xuan Ling’s back figure, he raised his head, glanced at the Phoenix Palace’s palace gate, and then turned to leave as well.
He was getting old, and in the past few months, he felt more and more that his body was failing.
He had to lead the royal family through this disaster. Only in this way, would he have the face to meet with the ancestors of the Ye family.
As for the ancestors, he would be willing to accept it even if they wanted to scold him or beat him, but the Ye Clan would not allow anything to happen to them in his hands.
Dong Shu who had already entered the Phoenix Palace did not know what the Emperor Ruikang and the Master Xuan Ling outside had said after she left.
This time when she entered the palace, Empress Hu took the initiative to send someone to pick her up.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gone out at this time.
Only, although she did not willingly go out today, she still revealed a happy smile after reaching the Phoenix Palace.
Before Dong Shu even had the chance to greet them, she had already heard the Empress Hu’s voice from afar.
“You met His Majesty and the Master Xuan Ling outside the palace?”
Hearing Empress Hu’s words, Dong Shu’s body trembled for a moment. Then, she still paid her respects to Empress Hu, until she had finished saluting, and then she opened her mouth to reply, “Mn, we did meet Your Majesty and Master Xuan Ling.”
“What did they tell you?”
The person Empress Hu had arranged to pick up Dong Shu was just directly chased away by Emperor Ruikang, so she only knew that Dong Shu had met Emperor Ruikang and Master Xuan Ling but did not know what they had told her.
Dong Shu did not know that the Empress Hu was worrying about him, upon hearing her question, she directly replied: “Nothing much. In the end, the Master Xuan Ling even asked me what kind of snacks I should eat this season. As for His Majesty, he didn’t say anything. He only looked at me, then told me to come quickly to see the Empress and not keep her waiting. ”
Empress Hu nodded her head continuously when Dong Shu was speaking. She could obviously tell that Dong Shu was lying, and most importantly, she confirmed her previous guess through Dong Shu’s words.
“That’s good then. I was even worried that they would bully you.”
Hearing Empress Hu’s words, Dong Shu laughed: “With the Empress’s support ~ ~”
Hearing Dong Shu’s coquettish words, Empress Hu immediately thought of Ye Jingche.
“Child, you just have a big heart. Even if you have me as your backer, then hasn’t Ye Jingche still yet come to apologize to you?” After saying all that, the Empress Hu paused for a while before continuing, “As for the words that he told people to spread out, they sound fake. You can’t believe it.”
Dong Shu did not expect the Empress Hu to say such words to her. She looked at him and laughed, then said: “Even without this matter, the relationship between us Xu Family and him will not be good.”
Just as Dong Shu said this, the Empress Hu immediately laughed.
That’s right, she had forgotten. Exactly how things went back then, Xu Family believed in her!
