How deep is Yuan Kai's love
How deep is Yuan Kai's love
Chu Yingrui spoke so emphatically that Yuan Kai knelt down in fright, bowed his head, and dared not speak.
He dared to challenge his mother, threatening to do his best for his wife and serve his parents-in-law.But in front of his father, he didn't have the courage.
After a long time, Chu Yingrui asked again: "This chopping, do you want to obey, or Chai Shiqing wants you to obey?"
Listening to his father's tone is very calm, not as angry as his mother, there is no turning back, Yuan Kai calmed down a little, and then whispered back: "Son thinks, since we have a good relationship with Xiao Qing, naturally we should do it for him. Mother is mourning and keeping filial piety, just do your best."
"Then tell me, you had a good time with Chai Shi, how good is it?" Chu Yingrui leaned slightly, pulled his son up from the ground, pointed to the chair next to him, and told him to sit down and talk.
His father actually cared about his relationship with Xiao Qing?What's the meaning?
After studying with his father to be a director for more than two months, Yuan Kai got to know his father more and more deeply. His father is a calm and rational person who is almost ruthless.
"Ruthless" does not mean that Yuan Kai thinks that his father has no feelings, on the contrary, Yuan Kai thinks that his father is a person with abundant and delicate feelings.
It's just that when feelings meet great ambitions, all feelings have to stand aside!When a choice needs to be made, feelings are the first to be discarded.
A utilitarian person's attitude towards feelings is also utilitarian.
Based on these cognitions, Yuan Kai didn't feel that his father really cared about his feelings, and his father's question must have a deep meaning.Then he remembered that his father had warned him not to let Xiao Qing become his weakness.
Therefore, Yuan Kai murmured, didn't know how to answer, his heart became anxious, and his face turned red.
Chu Yingrui watched his son's expression change, and said with a mocking smile: "Look at you, you like him, I think you like him so much..."
Yuan Kai instinctively wanted to deny it, but before he dared to interrupt his father, he heard his father say again: "Ah Kai, people's hearts are beyond your belly, you are so good at pouring out the firewood, maybe the firewood is pouring out at all." If you don't take you seriously, they will just play with you."
"No!" Yuan Kai didn't care about being rude, and directly retorted: "Xiao Qing is good to me! I have tested him several times with words, and he is wholeheartedly defending me. Look, let's call He wrote the letter, so he wrote it, asked him to copy the letter, and he copied it too. You also praised him, saying that he put his heart into copying the letter, which shows that he likes me and is willing to do anything for me .”
"He wants to help the coffin back to Jinchuan. Maybe, once he leaves the palace, he will never return." After Chai Shiqing helped the coffin return to his hometown, whether he would return was the focus of Chu Yingrui's attention.
Yuan Kai jumped up in a hurry. In a hurry, he waved at his father and retorted: "No! Xiao Qing will definitely come back. I'm here! He will definitely come back." His Xiao Qing liked it so much. Even if he is injured or has a broken leg, he will crawl back to the palace and stay with him.
He just said something wrong with Chai Shiqing, and his son's eyes turned red, as if he had been wronged by the heavens. Chu Yingrui was very disdainful, knowing that his warning had failed, and Chai Shiqing was already dead. It was his son's weakness, and Chu Yingrui's desire to kill rose in his heart.
However, Chu Yingrui had a deep scheming mind, and he would not attack Chai Shiqing immediately, nor would he tell his son the truth, lest there would be a rift between father and son.And when he finished using Chai Shiqing, he would find his fault and use other people's hands to remove it.It is the best policy to eliminate hidden dangers for his son without making him suspicious.
On the one hand, Chu Yingrui planned to get rid of Chai Shiqing, but on the other hand, he was a little relieved.Chai Shi is in love with adultery, and it is of course the best to take the initiative to return to the palace for the sake of his son.After this person is released, he must be taken back, otherwise, he cannot be released.
Chu Yingrui picked up his son's teacup and handed it to Yuan Kai: "As a father, just ask casually, I'm sure you're in a hurry! Have a sip of tea and let your breath flow."
He waited for his son to calm down, and then said: "Since you said that Chai Shiqing really likes you, as a father, let's trust him once, let him help the coffin back to his hometown, and fulfill his filial piety." He still has to make use of Confucian scholars of the Chaimen. If they know that he is holding back Chai Shiqing to help the coffin back to his hometown and is doing his last bit of filial piety, then it will be difficult to explain to the disciples of the Chaimen.
Yuan Kai's affairs gradually became more and more, and he suddenly understood that his father called him to check the relationship between himself and Xiao Qing, and he wanted to decide whether to let Xiao Qing help the coffin back to his hometown.He breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and bowed deeply to his father: "My son thanked father for his kindness on behalf of Xiao Qing."
On weekdays, I taught my son so many things, but I didn't see my son being half grateful to me. For a spoiled pet, I became grateful to myself!Chu Yingrui couldn't see his son's boneless and airless appearance, so he pretended he hadn't seen him and drank a cup of tea.
When his son sat back in the chair again, Chu Yingrui said: "Chai Shiqing helped the coffin back to his hometown, he can't go alone, since you want to be a filial son, you might as well help the coffin back with Chai Shiqing."
"Go back to Jinchuan with Xiao Qing? Can I leave Heqizhou? Dad, is it really possible?" Yuan Kai was surprised and happy when he heard that. He hadn't left Heqizhou yet after he was born.
Young man, why don't you want to see the outside world and scenery? It's a pity that he is the young son of the royal family, knowing that he can't run around the world like others, so he gave up this delusion early in the morning.
Unexpectedly, his father would ask him to accompany Shi Qing to carry the coffin back to his hometown, go to a place he has never been to, and see the mountains and rivers that are different from Qizhou along the way.
Furthermore, to be able to walk with the person he likes, across thousands of rivers and mountains, even though it is such a sad thing to help the coffin back to his hometown, it also makes Yuan Kai feel that his chest is full of secret sweetness.
Seeing his son's happy expression, Chu Yingrui secretly sighed inwardly, because he still had too little experience and couldn't hold his breath.
He sighed secretly in his heart, but his face remained calm, and he said with a smile: "Yes, but you have to listen to my arrangement, pretend to be Chai Shiqing's servant, hide your identity, go quietly, and then come back quietly. Along the way, hurry up Go back quickly, and don't reveal your identity."
"Father, don't worry, I will definitely pretend to be a servant so that no one will find out."
Of course Yuan Kai knew very well that once his identity as the young son of Prince An Ruo's mansion was exposed and he left the seal without purpose, he would be charged with a serious crime, and he would also implicate the prince's mansion.Therefore, along the way, he must be careful and never reveal his identity.
Chu Yingrui put his hand on his son's shoulder, and pressed it heavily: "Your mission is of great importance, and you must bring Chai Shiqing back."
"Don't worry, Father, we will of course come back when the Fifth Aunt's affairs are settled." Yuan Kai replied "we", imperceptibly, he already regarded himself and Xiao Qing as an inseparable one.
From Yuan Kai's point of view, even though there are some relatives from distant clans in Jinchuan's hometown, Shi Qing doesn't know any of them, let alone have feelings for them. After Chai Zhuo's burial, of course he has to return to the palace, the place where they grew up together.
Chu Yingrui stood up, walked to a certain corner of the study, and finally, as if she had made up her mind, took something and handed it to Yuan Kai.
Yuan Kai saw that it was a very exquisitely crafted small dagger with a sheath.He was just about to pull out the small dagger to take a look, but Chu Yingrui stopped him: "Don't pull it out! The blade is very sharp, and it's smeared with poison." It's not like Yuan Kai never played with a sword before. But the blade was smeared with poison, and it was the first time I held it in my hand, and I felt that the dagger seemed a bit heavy to hold.
With a sullen face, Chu Yingrui said solemnly: "This dagger is for your self-defense. Besides, if someone finds out your identity, I hope..." He didn't finish, but Yuan Kai understood and nodded solemnly: "Father, don't worry, my son will definitely not harm the Wangfu!" The poison on the dagger not only sealed the throat with blood, but also accelerated the decay of the corpse. As long as there is no proof of death, the Wangfu will have an excuse.
Chu Yingrui said again: "Also, if Chai Shiqing refuses to come back with you, or if there are any actions that are not conducive to the palace, you can..." He patted the dagger lightly.
Regarding this, Yuan Kai seemed very relaxed: "Father, if you think too much, Xiao Qing will definitely come back with me."
After talking about the business, Chu Yingrui brought the topic back: "Just take off this mourning dress when you go out! Wear it to an aunt, what are you talking about?!"
Yuan Kai hurriedly begged, saying that he would be filial to Fifth Aunt.
Chu Yingrui had no choice but to tell his son righteously and rationally: "If you want to be filial, you can ignore the face of our palace? If you spread the word, you won't be afraid that the world will laugh at you? Is the face of the palace important?"
Yuan Kai understands the truth, but when the young man becomes stubborn, eight horses can't pull him back. He just wants to be filial to Fifth Aunt so that he can live up to his friendship with Xiao Qing.
Chu Yingrui had never seen his son be so stubborn. If he hadn't worried that his son would go far away when he was about to monitor Chai, he really wanted to beat his son up!In his heart, he became more and more determined to get rid of Chai Shiqing.
In the end, Chu Yingrui was so troubled that he had no choice but to back down and change channels: "Your fifth aunt, how can you be worthy of your clothes? Are you not afraid that she will be uneasy under the nine springs? Well, you wear a hemp inside." , with an ordinary plain dress on the outside. Others are looking at you, you have not exceeded the etiquette, but for you, you have also worn mourning and filial piety, and the two are not in the way."
"Why do you only wear hemp?" Since you want to wear mourning clothes under plain clothes, why can't you wear zhanbai?
"Put on and cut off, show respect to your wife, what kind of wife are you?" Could it be that Chai Shiqing/fucked/fucked his son, and the son wants to show respect to his wife?
Thinking of this possibility, Chu Yingrui was full of anger towards his son. Others are child prostitutes, but when it comes to his son, will he become a child prostitute?After being played with, she still vomits gallbladder, is determined to defend it in every possible way!
Silly son, silly son!
You can't keep firewood when you dump it, you have to get rid of it!
However, even if it is a father, Chu Yingrui is not easy to ask about his son's bed affairs in detail, so he suppressed the anger in his heart and said in a calm tone: "In terms of etiquette, parents who are husbands and wives serve masan Moon is for the son-in-law. You have to be filial, and it is enough to obey the son-in-law."
His father gave in a step, Yuan Kai couldn't insist on cutting down, as long as he can do his best to mourn and keep filial piety.
When his son withdrew, the more Chu Yingrui thought about it, the more angry and resentful he became. He grabbed the teacup at hand and threw it out bitterly, as if hitting Chai Shiqing on the forehead.The way the tea was splashed, it seemed that the bastard had been smashed to the point of blowing his head, and the blood was splattering everywhere.
Chu Yingrui sat quietly for a while, then called the servants and ordered the third master to come over to discuss matters.As soon as the servants cleaned up the broken porcelain pieces in the study, Chu Yinghao hurried over.
At that time, it was midsummer, and you would sweat when you sat still in formal clothes on weekdays. At this moment, Yuan Kai wore a linen filial piety inside and plain clothes on the outside. Hot and sweaty.
Shi Qing has already heard from Yuan Kai that the son of the world asked him to help the coffin back to his hometown, and he is very determined.At this moment, seeing Yuan Kai was sweating profusely from the heat, he couldn't bear it, so he said: "Go back and rest, you don't need to stay here."
It stands to reason that after the aunt passed away and Yuan Kai came to pay respects, he could go back to Jiayu Residence, change into a light home cool shirt, let the boy fan him, read a book leisurely, and pass the bitter summer.
Yuan Kai turned sideways, pulled off the outer plain clothes a little, revealed the hemp inside, and said, "Your mother is my mother. I'm going to attend the funeral for Fifth Aunt. How can I go and rest?"
Filial piety is not a light thing to say, Yuan Kai is very sincere to mourn for Chai Zhuo, kneel with Shi, advance and retreat together, suffer from heat, sweat, what is it?At that moment, Yuan Kai's heart was peaceful and satisfied.
When you like someone and do everything for him, not only do you not feel bitter, but you enjoy it.
Shi Qing: "..."
When the last blood relative passed away, there was such a person who stood by his side, shared joys and sorrows with him, and loved each other, why didn't Shi Qing's heart be moved?
Unfortunately, they are not all the way.Following Shi Qing, he comforted himself: they are still brothers after all.
Anruo Palace immediately spread the news of Chai Zhuo's death, and everyone in the palace made preparations for the disciples of Chaimen to mourn and pay homage.
However, during the three-day lingering period, not a single disciple of Chaimen came to mourn and pay homage.
Chu Yingrui received the news that the palace was buried in a hidden pile in Fengjing City, saying that after Zou Fanchen received the two letters from Chai Shiqing and the news of Chai Zhuo's death, he didn't respond and went to the yamen as usual to sit on duty. , Not going to come to the palace to mourn.
After receiving the news, Chu Yingrui was naturally disappointed. He had set up a game, and Chai Zhuoshi's death messed it up.Fortunately, Chai Shiqing is still in his hand, so he is not afraid that he will not be able to hook Zou Fanchen.
Since Zou Fanchen didn't come, Chai Shiqing kept urging him to go on the road. After the palace was busy, Shi Qing took the "little servant" to help the coffin on the road in the afternoon of the fourth day.
In such a hot weather, it is impossible to stay in a hotel and rest calmly like ordinary travelers when they go back to their hometowns with their coffins far away.
If the body rots on the way, it is disrespectful to the deceased, so we have to race against time and rush on the road day and night.
Mrs. Zhuo had already considered this, and assigned enough manpower and carriages to take turns traveling and resting. Along the way, she did not plan to stay in a hotel except for eating at the peak, and rested in the car.
Shi Qing is a dutiful son, whose main task is to remember and mourn the dead, so he cannot take charge of affairs.
Therefore, Chu Yingrui appointed Yuan Kai as the supervisor of this trip, responsible for the arrangement and scheduling of all matters.With this arrangement, he also wanted to give his son a chance to exercise his practical ability.
But Yuan Kai has no management experience after all, and he is the young son of the royal family, with a sensitive status, so it is inconvenient for him to come forward for many things in person.
Therefore, Chu Yingrui sent a powerful butler surnamed Li from the palace to assist him. Whenever he crossed the state, received interrogation and other matters, this butler Li would come forward to negotiate.
It wasn't until he was on the road that Shi Qing's mood relaxed a little: he finally left He Qizhou and Anruo Prince's Mansion.
His mother tried her best to send him out of the palace, but this was just the beginning. He had to get rid of the control of the palace, and stop the riots in the palace on the premise of not hurting the palace. Life.
