Chapter 211 Urgent need
Xu was really surprised.
It is common for Chu Hua to teach his two sons, and his attitude is often very serious. He scared Chu Yuan and Chu Zhan to the point of seeing Chu Hua, basically lowered his head and listened to the training.
If you ask your child’s opinions with such interest, it was when Chu Yuan and Chu Zhan were four or five years old.
Chu Hua also regards Chu Junlan as his child.
Xu's eyes became more and more gentle when she looked at Chu Junlan. She gave birth to a son in the second child that year. Chu Hua's face was so long that she was injured. She was unable to give birth to another child. She decided to arrange two concubines for Chu Hua, but Chu Hua was lazy to deal with them and refused to take a look at them...
Xu's heart was warm, and he looked at her husband and sensible daughter, and he was full of love.
Chu Junlan sorted out his thoughts and said, "My father is not a reckless person. There is only one reason why he can fight in the court, that is, the court needs you to fight. The Khan of the Northern Yuan Dynasty wanted to be the 'grassland co-lord', which touched the emperor's majesty. The emperor is also a wise ruler, and he will not use his swords and weapons just because he loves face. He also needs to find a suitable step. Combining various reasons, there is a fight between father and King Gong Ding. The more intense the argument between father and King Gong Ding, the more sensation the fight is, the more satisfied the emperor will be."
Xu blinked his eyes for a long time, and suddenly said "Oh" with a long voice. His eyes looked at Chu Junlan with surprise and love: "How do you, a child, understand these?"
Chu Junlan smiled shyly, then looked at Chu Hua with some concern.
"But there are still drawbacks in this. The emperor and everyone know it, but this handle is really easy to catch. I am afraid that after the Northern Yuan envoy achieves his goal, someone will use this matter to criticize his father. His father must be mentally prepared."
"You also thought about being a father," Chu Hua looked at Chu Junlan with approval, "Don't worry, I think there is the emperor's intention, and some people will not be too much if they want to move."
Chu Junlan thought about it and felt that this was the case.
No one in the court is a fool. Understanding the mind is the most basic homework. No one should change the bad habit, right?
But things are moving in the worst direction.
The envoy of the Northern Yuan Dynasty requested the title to be successfully held. After staying in the capital for seven days, an internal supervisor and minister who issued an edict sent them out of the capital. The disturbed pool water had not calmed down, and something big happened immediately in the court.
King Gongding, who advocated leading troops to attack the Northern Yuan Dynasty, was fined by the emperor for one month's salary and thought about his mistakes behind closed doors!
This incident seemed to have become a fuse, and then someone impeached Chu Hua one after another to "counseal the enemy and treason". Chu Hua naturally argued with reason, but it did not have much effect, and the rumors just became more and more intense.
There are many more rumors in the market, saying that the Prince of Mao had lost his original intention and actually helped the Khan of the Northern Yuan Dynasty to seek title, insulting the emperor's reputation as the "Common Lord of the World" and was a traitor!
The big hat of "traitor" caught Chu Hua off guard.
Chu Feng has not recovered and is still bedridden. The Chu family is already covered with dark clouds. Now Chu Hua is labeled as a "traitor". As rumors spread, even the servants of his family were instructed to go out to buy vegetables.
"Mother, what should I do?" Chu Zhan was a little panicked. He stopped playing with his favorite brother. He came back from outside and plunged into the Zhiyuanzhai main house.
Xu put two plum blossom patches on his temples that clear the brain and refreshed the mind. He pinched the bridge of his nose and closed his eyes and frowned: "What's wrong? What's the news?"
Chu Zhan frowned: "I went to Mobaozhai today. On the way, I met several noble children who were acquainted with me on weekdays. Who knew that when they met, they were very rude in words. They also said that the Jinyiwei and the Dongchang had begun to investigate whether their father had any evidence of collusion with the enemy and treason. Mother, what are the people of the Jinyiwei and the Dongchang?"
Xu's expression changed immediately and he suddenly opened his eyes.
"Has the matter reached this point?"
Seeing that Xu's face was really ugly, Chu Zhan couldn't help but feel a little regretful: "Mother, don't worry too much. My father was sitting upright and didn't really collude with the enemy and treason. Even if they asked them to investigate, they wouldn't be able to find out what we are doing. That is, there are some bad rumors at the moment, just to survive this section."
Xu shook his head and said quietly: "Officials have bad reputations outside. Do you think the emperor will still have important responsibilities in the future?"
Chu Zhan's face turned pale, and he held a big truth in his throat and didn't dare to say it.
In the prosperous era, the most undesirable thing is talents. The emperor wants to employ people, what kind of talents do not have? So many people with clean wealth cannot use them. Can a minister with a stain still be able to get into the emperor's eyes in the future?
Xu and Chu Zhan didn't discuss it.
Even Duke Mao, who had been refusing to return home, rushed back after receiving the news and called Chu Hua to the study room of the outer courtyard. The father and son had a big fight.
"Girl, Duke Mao's temper is really irritable." Zi Yan combed Chu Junlan's hair and lowered her voice, "I heard that if the third master hadn't stopped him, the Duke would have almost broken the prince's leg."
Chu Junlan frowned at herself clearly in the mirror of the Western beauty, "Where is that country's prince now?"
"I was so angry that I went to Changfeng Garden to take a look at the master, and then got angry again. The third master and Miss Xi worked together to persuade him to go back to the village."
Chu Junlan nodded, looking a little lonely.
Zi Yan and Nuomin looked at each other, their eyes full of worry.
"You guys tell me, are you destined to be evil?" After a while, Chu Junlan sighed, "It turns out that the virtue of the family has finally had a warm home. Before I could get familiar with it, I have caused such a big deal."
"What did the girl say?" Zi Yan pouted, "This is not caused by the girl. In the future, the girl will be rich and powerful as the princess. Don't say that to herself."
Chu Junlan shook his head: "Things are not that simple. The emperor made me the daughter of the Duke of Mao's Mansion for the sake of his identity. Now if something happened to the Duke of Mao's Mansion, I and Prince Gongding will not be worthy of my identity. What will happen to you?"
Zi Yan and Nuomin immediately widened their eyes.
"No, no..."
"You thought of it too, right?" Chu Junlan raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Do you think the emperor will change his identity for me again?"
No one in the room spoke because everyone knew that this was impossible.
Chu Junlan couldn't tell what she felt. She and Xiao Xu were originally in a cooperative relationship. If they didn't get married, it didn't mean they couldn't cooperate.
But when she thought that she and Xiao Xu could not get married, the shy guy would get married with another woman one day and spend time with another woman, she always felt a little uncomfortable.
Staring at the tent, he couldn't sleep until he couldn't help but turn over in annoyed manner.
Suddenly, she heard a slight sound from the back window.
It was Zi Yan tonight. Because of the chaos at home, Zi Yan was not sleeping soundly. He heard the sound and sat up with Chu Junlan.
At this time, Zi Yan immediately laughed and said to Chu Junlan quietly, "I'll go out." As she said that, she turned around and ran away.
Chu Junlan shook his head in a funny way, got up and opened the rear window.
The cold wind blew in, and Xiao Xu, dressed in black, jumped in and quickly turned around and closed the window.
"Tsk tsk, the prince's level of stealing into the girl's boudoir in the middle of the night is getting more and more perfect." Chu Junlan looked outside with his hands crossed and smiled.
Xiao Xu pulled off the masked black cloth expressionlessly and whispered: "How are you?"
