The prince spared his life! The lady has been reborn to save you
Chapter 37 Chu Huai scolds
The man who came in black clothes, tall hat and angry face scolded Chu Yingxue.
"Brother..."
Chu Yingxue was so frightened that she stood still, tears welling up in her almond-shaped eyes because of shock.
Chu Yizhao was also shocked at first. Why did Chu Yunyu look so ferocious towards Chu Yingxue? Didn’t he always scold her before?
Later, I realized that Chu Yunyu had not yet obtained the position of the crown prince that he had been dreaming of, so he naturally had to appease her, the Queen Mother’s favorite...
Chu Yingxue's voice was soft, like a frightened deer. Chu Yunyu looked at this face that was three-quarters similar to his mother's, but he couldn't bear it after all, so he softened his voice.
"Don't talk nonsense next time. It's hot. Go back to the yard."
Chu Yingxue's eyes were red, and she wanted to say something, but was suppressed by Chu Yunyu's warning eyes.
He threw his handkerchief down angrily and stomped heavily on the ground, as if he wanted to crush something...
Chu Yizhao tilted his head to look at Chu Yunyu, his eyes following the woman's departing back, worry floating between his brows.
"When my sister first came, she was gentle and sensible, but now she has become a bit aggressive," Chu Yizhao teased.
"okay"
As expected, Chu Yunyu interrupted and said with a slight reprimand, "You are speaking without thinking."
"A woman's reputation is the most important thing, how can we judge her casually?"
These days, Chu Yingxue relied on her restored appearance, thinking that she could secure her position as the young lady of the Marquis's Mansion. She acted arrogantly and did many things that were detrimental to her reputation.
Chu Yunyu must be blind to not see it.
"Father is calling us, let's go"
Fengde Study
Behind the nanmu desk, Chu Huai was holding an ink pen and writing. Chu Yizhao followed Chu Yunyu into the "Meet Father"
Chu Huai didn't stop moving, just hummed lightly and said nothing more.
The scent of ink floats in the air, the whole room is filled with dark wood, and the heavy bookshelves are piled high. The windows of Fengde's study are fish-scale windows, with small holes that barely let in some dim light.
Dull and depressing.
After finishing a piece of calligraphy, Chu Huai stopped writing and picked up the handkerchief on the table to wipe his hands. When Chu Huai was young, he was handsome and talented, and was personally appointed as the third place in the imperial examination by the late emperor.
Now that I am old, I am too worried and have been frowning all year round. A deep line has formed between my eyebrows, making me look irritable and depressed.
At this moment, his brows relaxed and he spoke casually,
"When we were at Mount Taihua, the Queen Mother often mentioned you. She really likes you."
Chu Yizhao's heart was slightly moved. He killed her guard a few days ago, and today he suddenly showed goodwill to her. He must be a traitor or a thief.
I was disgusted in my heart, but I said modestly,
"It is my son's blessing to be loved by the Queen Mother"
Chu Huai wiped his hands and casually threw the handkerchief on the table.
"When we were at Mount Taihua, the Queen Mother often said that I missed your coming-of-age ceremony. I hope you can find something good to open your eyes when you enter the palace this time."
His tone was relaxed, as if he was just a loving father who was simply curious about his daughter's birthday gift.
"Birthday gift?" Chu Yizhao looked confused. "The Queen Mother didn't give me any."
Chu Huai's smile froze for a moment, and the "川" character between his eyebrows closed, "Zhao'er, you want to hide it? I just took a look, are you afraid that your father will take it from you?"
Hearing this, Chu Yizhao panicked and became angry, and made an expression of great pain and grief.
"Father, what are you talking about? When has your daughter ever hidden anything given by the Queen Mother? The brush in your hand was given to you by your daughter."
Chu Huai choked, the brush beside him lay quietly, the tip of the brush still soaked with ink, it was true...
The suspicious eyes fixed on Chu Yizhao's face for two circles, and the embarrassed and angry posture did not seem to be fake...
The doubts in his heart were slightly put aside, his brows relaxed, his expression became gentle, and his tone became softer, "Father is overthinking, Zhao'er, don't be angry."
"It's just..." Chu Huai changed his tone and asked doubtfully.
"But I clearly heard the Queen Mother say at Mount Taihua that she would send you a birthday gift. Did you forget?"
Chu Yizhao pretended to frown and muttered, "Could it be..."
"It's not a big deal." Chu Huai seemed to attach great importance to this reward and asked several times impatiently.
Since entering the study, Chu Yunyu has been standing there obediently, his eyes and nose in control. Although he is the eldest son and is usually dignified and dignified, he is most afraid of Chu Huai. In front of Chu Huai, he is not as comfortable speaking as Chu Yizhao.
In the solemn study, a nameless fire burned up along the hem of the clothes.
"The Queen Mother was very happy to see me today, but after I said a few words, she turned cold and ignored me. I didn't even have enough to eat."
When this matter was mentioned, Chu Yizhao vented his anger and hung his head in dejection.
"What? Didn't I warn you not to talk nonsense in front of the Queen Mother?!" Chu Huai said angrily.
"I..." Chu Yizhao was speechless for a moment and glanced at Chu Yunyu timidly.
Chu Yunyu felt a chill on his back. Before he turned around to look, his father's cold eyes swept over him, and he quickly lowered his head in panic.
"You keep talking"
His father's voice was filled with suppressed anger. Chu Yunyu secretly said "not good", only to hear the cold voice speaking slowly.
"My eldest brother's succession to the throne has not been decided yet, so I thought I'd take advantage of the Queen Mother's good mood and ask her to talk to the royal family to see if..."
"absurd!"
Chu Huai was so furious. How could his daughter become so stupid? He had repeatedly warned her not to make any requests in front of the Queen Mother.
The favor of a noble person is like an ephemeral flower, which blooms only once. If you demand it without restraint, you will only lose the favor.
The best way is to act well-behaved and clever, be a selfless little pet, and when the time is right, strive for greater honors for the family.
"But…"
Chu Yizhao wanted to argue, but the next second, heat rushed to his head, he felt dizzy and almost fell down. Chu Yunyu was close by and reached out to help him.
"What's wrong?" Chu Huai held back his scolding tone.
Chu Yizhao was panting, his face flushed, as if he was suffering from the heat.
"I don't know where my daughter's carriage has gone. The weather is hot and she is feeling a little uncomfortable after walking all the way."
Chu Yunyu seemed to have anticipated something and gave her a warning look, asking her to shut up. Chu Yizhao obeyed and shut her mouth, as the words had already been said.
"That's enough." Seeing her half-dead attitude, Chu Huai didn't know what to say. He was angry and said, "Next time, don't talk about the prince anymore. I'm not dead yet, it's not your turn to worry about me."
Chu Yizhao felt the stiffness of that arm and replied weakly, "My daughter knows she was wrong..."
As he was helped out of the door by the servant, a loud slap was heard from the study, and Chu Yizhao almost laughed out loud.
Chu Huai passed the imperial examination at the age of 25 and was chosen as the son-in-law by Duke Wenyuan. They got married and had children, and at the age of 30 he was granted the title of Marquis of Quyang. He always believed in the principle of late bloomer and never considered Chu Yunyu's impatience and depression as he had neither title nor wife.
It is darkest under the lamp, and no matter how smart you are, you cannot escape it.
In his previous life, Chu Yizhao kept Chu Huai's teachings in mind and rejected Chu Yunyu's request to become the crown prince.
Chu Yunyu was naturally unable to swallow the humiliation of bowing to a junior with such arrogance and being rejected.
Since then, there has been a rift between the two...
Chu Yingxue danced beautifully at the Hundred Flowers Banquet and was rewarded. She asked for the position of Crown Prince on his behalf, so he was naturally grateful for his biological sister's kindness.
But he didn't know that before the prince's banquet, he suddenly fell ill, and it was she who rescued him that won the East Palace's golden words and jade words.
But at that time, Wei Xingche was like a mad dog, biting everywhere, and the prince did not make it public for fear of implicating her.
Otherwise, with so many noble ladies in the capital who could dance, why would the emperor favor a distant relative who was living there as a guest?
Do you really think it's a fairy from heaven?
"These bitches, huh!"
