Honghui is reborn in Legend of Zhen Huan, I will protect my mother
Chapter 147 Staying Alone
After March, there is a leap March, which means this year has one more month than in previous years.
Perhaps it was because that special time point was approaching, the situation in the previous dynasty became more and more complicated, and the Prince's Party and the Eldest Prince's Party were fighting each other fiercely. This frenzy soon spread to the Shangshufang.
There have been constant turmoil in the study room in the past few months, and even the enlightenment class has been affected.
Most of those affected were tutors of noble birth. Those of ordinary status were looked down upon by both sides. However, if any prince or grandson of the emperor took sides, the corresponding tutors would automatically follow suit.
As a relatively favored grandson of the emperor and the eldest son of the Fourth Prince, Honghui received quite a few offers of favor. However, he always evaded them with excuses like being busy with schoolwork and never expressed his opinion in public.
His eloquence saved him from being forced to stand in line!
There was another disturbance today, as two groups of people started quarreling over a poetry reading.
The two emperor's grandsons, who were at loggerheads with each other, held a poetry meeting on the same day and invited all the princes, emperor's grandsons, royal family members and nobles who were studying in the upper study to attend. Invitations from both sides were handed to everyone one after another. Whoever saw them would not say, "There is no way forward and no way back - it's a dilemma"
Isn't this blatantly forcing people to take sides?
No matter what others think, Honghui's party will not attend anyway. He said worriedly in front of his two cousins: "Cousin Hongxi, cousin Hongyu, my mother is getting worse and will give birth in two months. I, I am a little worried. Giving birth is like going through the gates of hell for a woman, and I only have this one mother..."
"You, worry too much! There are rules for women to give birth. The palace doctor and midwife are here. Why should you, the grandson of the emperor, worry about it?" Hongxi had never paid attention to what happened in the backyard, so he could not empathize with his cousin's feelings.
Hongyu immediately retorted: "The relationship between mother and son is natural. Is Honghui worried? He is obviously being filial! I guess cousin Hongxi never knew that childbirth is always extremely dangerous?" His biological mother died early because she was exhausted from giving birth to five children in a row. He knew the pain of his mother's early death best!
"How could I not know? But what can we do? We have even caused our biological mother to worry..."
"Tsk~ you're just making up a story! What's the point of that little worry? It's a filial act for a son. How can any mother in this world not feel grateful?"
Then the two of them started arguing with each other, and completely forgot about Honghui who was standing aside.
In this regard, Honghui just wants to say - well done!
It was worth it that he chose to refuse the invitation when both cousins were present. If one agreed, the other would object. These two people would only confront each other but would not direct their spearheads at him, an outsider.
Honghui watched the show with great interest for half an hour, and only stopped it when he became impatient: "Brother Hongxi, cousin Hongyu, please don't argue about my brother's affairs. You two are both right! Some people have ambitions, while others are sentimental. It depends on how you choose.
As for me, I would rather be with my parents than study hard. How can I hang out with my classmates when my mother is in this state? I have to disturb your mood now, please forgive me, my two cousins."
The Qing Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety, and what it valued most was filial piety. Neither Hongxi nor Hongyu dared to force Honghui to attend the poetry meeting, otherwise if it got to the ears of the Empress Dowager, they would be considered wrong.
So, Honghui successfully escaped again!
When he returned to the prince's residence, he was inevitably questioned a few more questions.
"Honghui, are you going or not? Which way?" The person asking the question was the eighteenth prince Yinzhi. Now he and Honghui were the only two princes and grandsons left studying in the enlightenment class.
Because his Eighteenth Uncle was still on good terms with him, Honghui said frankly, "I'm not going anywhere. My mother is about to give birth, and I want to go back to take care of her."
Yinzhi did not comment on this, but sighed with envy, and then said: "You are smart. I didn't let you get involved every time. My fifteenth brother and sixteenth brother were eliminated early. We are brothers from the same mother. Even if I don't want to get involved, I have to stand in line. I just don't know how long I can hold on."
The noise made by the eldest brother and the second brother, the crown prince, was too loud. Not to mention the little princes, even the adult princes had to take sides. When could they have real peace?
Yinzhi was very distressed about this.
"Don't worry, Uncle Eighteen. The Emperor still loves and cares for you. He won't watch you in this dilemma. The farce in the study is just a farce after all. Why should we young princes get involved? We might as well study hard to make progress! As for Uncle Seventeen, he is very relaxed. He refused without getting involved."
"I am different from you and Seventeenth Brother. My mother is of Han descent and is just a concubine. I cannot cause trouble for her. It's so annoying! How long will they continue to quarrel?" Yinzhi let out a sigh of relief, feeling extremely frustrated.
How long will this commotion end? This year is just the beginning. From now on, it will be a one-sided fight. Don’t even think about having real peace!
Honghui said nothing. He just quietly flipped through the book in his hand, letting his uncle vent as much as he wanted.
However, Yinzhi was a broad-minded person and only said a few discouraging words.
Then in early April, the news that Prince Zhu San had been arrested reached the capital. The confrontation between the Prince's faction and the eldest prince's faction was temporarily eased, and the turmoil in the Shangshufang also subsided a little.
Speaking of Prince Zhu San, he is a descendant of Emperor Chongzhen of the previous dynasty and will be incompatible with this dynasty.
His capture made Honghui sigh with regret, but more of envy! Although the Ming Dynasty was conquered by the Qing Dynasty, it did not lose the Han Chinese demeanor. However, the Qing Dynasty went to extinction in humiliation and misery, and even a civilization almost perished. It can be said that it was fully worthy of the title of the culprit!
Thinking of this, Honghui didn't dare to think about it any further. At this moment, he was just thankful that he had the chance to be reborn, giving him an extra chance to turn the tide. Otherwise... the consequences would be disastrous!
However, the capture of Prince Zhu San is a great comfort to our dynasty. At least the Emperor has been in a good mood recently and has become energetic immediately. There is no sign of the dizziness he had at the beginning of last year.
In mid-April, Prince Zhu San and others were taken to Zhejiang for trial. Since then, Honghui has not paid much attention to this matter.
What he was most concerned about was his mother's health. The court doctor and the midwife had examined her and said that she would give birth in the next few days.
It was said to be a few days, but in fact it was less than two days. On April 20th, there was movement in Haitang Garden.
Unfortunately, that day was not the day to return home, and no one informed Honghui, his biological son, when his mother gave birth. So by the time Honghui learned the news, it was already the next day.
Everything is settled now, and he has nothing to worry about from beginning to end!
