Chapter 181: confession
Because Concubine An and Bai Yinhua said to each other that the other was the person Prince An cared about most, His Majesty the Emperor simply waved his hand and sent both of them to accompany Prince An on the final journey.
As for Empress Xu, her body was a powerful bow, and she didn't even hold up to the emperor's order, she fainted on the ground, or Li Quan was sent back to Kunning Palace in a hurry, and she also called for two from the Tai Hospital. The imperial physician followed.
However, to a certain extent, Bai Yinhua's plan was not completely fruitless. At least the emperor did not pursue her for the crime of cheating with King An, and asked her to be buried with King An in the name of the side concubine. When she spoke out, she added a loyal and virtuous name. .
As for the Bai Mansion, Bai Zheng used to be unreliable. As soon as An Wang fell, the "good son-in-law" he used to talk about became an unavoidable disaster. Even Bai Yinhua, who had been pampered in his hand since childhood In his mouth, he became a "disaster star", and he kept saying, "I knew that she should have been strangled in a swaddled baby when she was born, so as not to grow up and become a disaster for the family".
But now Bai Zizhen is in charge of everything in Bai's house. No matter how bad Bai Zheng is, he won't be able to make a big disaster. Bai Chu asked about it for a few days, but he didn't take care of it anymore. The news came back and told her.
Zhang's and Bai Yinhua's love for Shen Yuzhi and Bai Yinhua's love-hate entanglement were compared to the original owner's pure hatred for Zhang's. Especially when it was later revealed that the death of her biological mother was the master of the Zhang family.
It's a pity that at that time, Mrs. Zhang was already the biological mother of the new queen, Mrs. Chengen's dignified wife, and she was carrying a fourth-grade official order on her back. Not to mention the original owner, the Xu family might not be able to treat her.
"Are you satisfied?"
Bai Chu's eyelashes moved slightly, he raised his eyes slightly to look at Shen Yongzhi in front of him, and said casually, "What am I satisfied with?"
Shen Yongzhi smiled, he could see at a glance that her words were insincere, such an awkward look was uniquely cute in his eyes, "Although I don't know why you are so obsessed with King An and Bai Yinhua, but now the two of them are ending. It's settled, can you feel at ease?"
Bai Chu rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "King An is gone, what is the second brother going to do in the future?"
She guessed that what the emperor asked Shen Yingzhi to do was to spy on Prince An and open doors for him from time to time, gradually nourishing Prince An's ambition to this day, making him arrogantly and boldly coveted the throne, even at the expense of murdering the prince. .
Shen Yuezhi's eyes were far and wide, and he smiled softly: "Chuchu probably doesn't want to stay in the capital, right?"
Of course not.
If it weren't for the inconvenience of transportation in ancient times, it was very unsafe for a woman to be alone, and she would pack up and run away as early as when Bai Chu and Shen Yu separated.
With bright eyes, she asked curiously, "Is the second brother going to elope with me?"
Shen Yingzhi's brows showed a very touching tenderness: "Yes, we will go wherever Chu Chu wants to go in the future."
It was only after he met her that he realized that there were such amazingly charming emotions in the world that he had never imagined before.
Shen Yongzhi prides herself on being smart, and every day facing her who is different everywhere, she will inevitably feel a little bit of "sitting on the well and watching the sky".
Maybe he should go out for a walk.
"Where are you going then?" Bai Chu's delicate and beautiful face wrinkled into a ball, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "Didn't the second brother grow up in Laizhou? Take me back to see where you lived when you were a child, okay? Okay?"
When the eldest princess was pregnant with Shen Yongzhi, it happened that King Zheng rebelled, and the chaos in the capital was so chaotic that even the eldest princess could not guarantee that she would be able to protect her child with all her strength.
King Zheng is unscrupulous. He arrested an official's family and forced him to commit the despicable acts he used more than once. The eldest princess felt frightened when she thought about it. two.
As a result, one of Shen Yue's births was secretly sent to Xie's family, whom the eldest princess hadn't contacted for many years, and raised him in Laizhou. Only when the situation in the capital became increasingly calm and stable, did he lead him back to the capital.
"It's just a small place," Shen Yongzhi was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "What's there to see?"
Bai Chu shook his head: "I want to live in the place where you lived when you were a child for a while."
A simple sentence was like a small stone falling into Shen Yongzhi's heart, making ripples in circles, sweet and sour, sour but warm.
This is a kind of touching and tenderness that has never been seen before, the curvature of Shen Yongzhi's lips can't help but rise upwards,
"Okay, let's go to Laizhou first."
When the two were joking, they were talking about elopement, but it was impossible to elope. Even if Bai Chu wanted to, Shen Yongzhi couldn't allow the perfect marriage of the two to have the notoriety of "fornication without a matchmaker".
So he secretly had the idea of "cooking cooked rice with raw rice", and he was obsessed with marrying Bai Chu first, and then no matter who objected, as long as he did not agree, the two would still be a veritable husband and wife.
Unfortunately, the plan was only halfway through when the backyard started to catch fire.
Someone stabbed Bai Chu and Shen Yongzhi to the eldest princess.
The dignified and gentle smile on her face instantly stiffened: "What did you say?"
She asked back in astonishment, and before the other party could answer, the scene of Bai Chu getting along with her sons could not wait to pop up.
The more she thought about it, the more ugly the expression on her face.
Many people around pretended to look at Princess Duanmin unintentionally.
Thanks to the unforgiving princess Changping, she thought about her listless daughter after returning from the Xu family and Li, and her mother's love was about to overflow into a flood. She was even more worried and worried about her in her heart. The matter of other people's sons, he didn't open his mouth to add fuel to the fire like in the past, and say anything cynical.
Princess Duanmin was able to hold her face in front of the door of Shen's mansion. As soon as she lifted the curtain, the smile on her face was exaggerated, her tone was sneer, but the anger in her eyes intensified.
"Go, call that renegade son to me!"
The matter has come to this point, even if Shen Yongzhi doesn't want to recruit, he can only admit it.
The eldest princess's face was red and white. After a while, she lowered her voice and asked after a pause, "Aren't you..."
"No," Shen Yongzhi glanced at the eldest princess speechlessly, "Where do you want to go? We are not married yet."
The eldest princess breathed a sigh of relief, and the anger just now burst out again: "Shen Yongzhi! Who taught you to do such a treacherous thing? She is your sister-in-law!"
"Already divorced." Shen Yongzhi returned lazily, "In the future, she can only be Yuzhi's sister-in-law."
"No," the eldest princess said decisively, "How can there be a reason for a younger sister-in-law and an uncle to marry after leaving the house? This is against human relations, Yoongi, don't do stupid things, and don't ruin your future in a hurry!"
"Mother," Shen Yongzhi smiled helplessly, "Even if we don't do anything, there will always be people staring at the Shen family, so it's better to do something good, just do good deeds and accumulate Buddhas."
"Yongzhi," the eldest princess had never persuaded him since she was a child, so she could not help softening her tone, with a loving and caring smile on her brows and eyes, "This matter involves your life, I really can't let you go the wrong way. ."
"Yes, you like Chu Hua now, but you have been hiding in the dark for many years, and you have seen few women. How can you tell what is gratitude and what is temptation? Maybe, she relies on and likes you. It's just your own fantasy."
"Mother," Shen Yuezhi suddenly interrupted her with a deep voice, the eldest princess rarely saw such a solemn look on the face of her warm second son, she couldn't help but be shocked, "I love Chu Chu, not on impulse, nor on purpose. It's crazy, I've confirmed it completely, I want her."
He smiled slightly: "As for whether she really likes me, I don't care, I am the closest to her right and left, if she is not enlightened, she will not like anyone, if she is enlightened, she will only like me alone. "
"Mother," Shen Yuezhi sighed softly, "I hope you can help me instead of directly denying the happiness I've found for myself."
The eldest princess looked at the young man who was sitting upright in front of her, with a long-lasting energy and an elegant and calm attitude, suddenly a little dazed,
She couldn't even remember what kind of character this son was inside.
She knew that he was used to showing people with a smile, but at any time, even as a mother, she was confused by the fake mask on his face, and turned to forget his real appearance.
Princess Duanmin recalled that when she gave birth to her eldest son, although she did not have much experience as a mother for the first time, the first child, stumbled and stumbled, grew up in her arms carefully, and even a yawn could make her happy for a long time.
When she arrived at the second son, she was taken away from her since she was a child, and she was finally brought back to Beijing. She had another young son under her knees to take care of.
Even if the eldest princess didn't feel that she was an eccentric mother, when she recalled her negligence towards Shen Yongzhi, she couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart.
"Are you really sure?"
Shen Yongzhi's gentle eyes showed pure and thick ink, without hesitation: "Yes."
"No regrets?"
"No regrets."
The eldest princess was silent for a moment and sighed: "In this way, our Shen family will become a joke among others."
Shen Yongzhi smiled and said, "Chu Hua and I just want you to know, it won't be publicized with great fanfare, besides," he added a bit of warm tenderness to his smile, "We have decided to leave the capital, even if there is a Rumors, when we leave, will naturally disappear slowly."
The eldest princess was startled and hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?"
Shen Yuezhi smiled and said, "Chu Hua said that he wanted to go to Laizhou to see where I lived when I was a child."
The eldest princess had never seen such a sincere and relaxed smile from him, and her already shaky heart became more and more unsteady. She stared at him for a while, slightly tired, and rubbed her sour brows, saying: "Forget it, you go back first, and I will discuss it with your father."
Shen Yongzhi didn't insist on a result, he obediently saluted and retired, but before leaving, he left a warm voice: "Mother, you know my temperament, Your Majesty's business is over, and now I only have this left. One is concerned."
The gentle and gentle tone carried a different and sentimental feeling. After he finished speaking, he turned around and left, leaving the eldest princess alone, staring blankly at his smaller and smaller back, gradually disappearing from sight. .
Children, all grown up.
