Brother Jia Sheshu of the Red Chamber

Emperor Pingkang was basically a lucky emperor. As the only prince of the late emperor, he succeeded to the throne at an early age when the late emperor had no other sons to compete with him for the throne.

After succeeding to the throne, there were old ministers left behind by the late emperor to help manage the government. The government was stable, the people's livelihood was smooth, and the harvest was bumper year after year. He is the best representative of smooth sailing.

But even for an over-lucky person like Ping Kangdi, it is inevitable to encounter several indescribable or indescribable things in this life.

Emperor Pingkang dreamed that he was doing something indescribable with a woman. The woman seemed to be quite reluctant and struggled all the time. Emperor Pingkang couldn't see the woman's face clearly until the end...

He just saw...

Emperor Pingkang woke up from his dream. As soon as he woke up, Xia Dequan quickly gave him a soothing decoction.

"Your Majesty!" Xia Dequan said hastily: "This is the soothing decoction prescribed by the Wen Yuan. It is said to be able to calm the mind and calm the mind. Would you like to use some first, Your Majesty?"

"En." Emperor Pingkang took a few sips, saw that he was in the Qianqing Palace, touched the familiar bedding under his body, and then regained his composure, "Just now..."

Before Emperor Pingkang could finish his sentence, he saw the third prince pushing the door with a few brothers and asked anxiously, "How is the father?"

Although the third prince expected everyone to go to hell together, he didn't want to get away with it and lose his father's life.

Although there was quite a bit of dispute between the fourth child and the crown prince, and the elder brother was also watching the tiger, but the crown prince was famous and righteous. If something happened to the father, the crown prince must succeed. They are easy to get along with, if the prince's second brother is the emperor, the brothers will definitely not have a good life.

Even if the second brother of the prince treats them gently, he still understands the difference between his father being an emperor and his brother being an emperor.Therefore, although the third prince was a bit cheating on weekdays, his concern for Emperor Pingkang was genuine.

Seeing the concerned expression on the third child's face, Emperor Pingkang's heart warmed slightly. This child is a solid one. Two, Ping Kangdi suddenly felt that the whole person was not well.

"You...you..." Ping Kangdi's eyes were wide open, and he was short of breath for a while, and seemed to be a little out of breath again.

"Father, calm down." The third prince hurriedly stepped forward to help with the fan, and comforted him: "Take a big breath! It's nothing, but it's just a hell, ah! No! It's just seeing Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu."

What the third prince said was calm, as if it was no big deal, even the fourth prince nodded repeatedly, as if he didn't care.

Emperor Pingkang was choked up instantly, he gave the third child a cold look, is this what people say?Look at the fourth...

Well, although the fourth child is also pale, he obviously hasn't regained his senses, and although his eyes are full of pain when he looks at the sixth child, he is generally considered calm.Even though Xia Dequan couldn't hide his anxious look on his face, he looked calm when facing Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu, as if he didn't take meeting Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu seriously.Not to mention the heartless third child.

In an instant, Emperor Pingkang lost all sense of horror. The two sons were so brave and dared to face the ghosts directly. He was so weak, and his face as a father seemed to be gone.

Emperor Pingkang's rare old face flushed, and he coughed lightly in embarrassment, but what the hell, no one else is afraid, so what is he afraid of!In line with the spirit of losing no one, Emperor Pingkang held on!

Even so, Emperor Pingkang still drank the Anshen soup in one breath, and he steadfastly collected himself before he dared to look at the little five behind the fourth.

He collected himself and looked at Xiao Wu. Even if he hadn't seen him for seven years, he would recognize that the young man in front of him was indeed his Xiao Wu. He sighed, "Ming Ye!"

The fifth prince's originally indifferent face showed a slight hint of guilt, stepped forward a few steps, and said respectfully: "Father!"

Although the mother and concubine don't want him anymore, the emperor never said he didn't want him, and he knew that the emperor loved him very much, and he was heartbroken because of his illness, so he accidentally scared the emperor into a faint. Thinking about it, Tu Mingye felt somewhat guilty.

Emperor Pingkang boldly pulled Xiao Wu's hand. After feeling the temperature of Xiao Wu's hand, he breathed a sigh of relief, and asked in a deep voice, "Why don't you go home?"

When Xiao Wu had an accident, he was already 11 years old. Although Xiao Wu went to the study later than other princes, under the guidance of Concubine Zhen, Xiao Wu had already been familiar with scriptures, could write and read, and even more so. Knowing his identity, as long as he speaks to the local government office, the local government office will send someone to send him back, why not go back to the palace?

Xiao Wu is a bit weird, but he is definitely not a fool, and he will not understand what to do is the best.

Tu Mingye shook his head, "My concubine doesn't want me, she just has a younger brother. I'm leaving, it's good for both my father and my concubine, and you two don't have to worry about my illness anymore."

Emperor Pingkang was a father after all, although Concubine Zhen was good at concealing himself, even the other concubines in the palace were aware of it, not to mention Emperor Pingkang who was the child's father.

Emperor Pingkang didn't say anything and pretended not to know. On the one hand, he didn't want to admit that he really gave birth to a stupid child. On the other hand, he wanted to protect his son. Once the matter of the fifth prince was known to outsiders, for the sake of the royal family's reputation, He is bound to let the fifth prince 'die of illness'.

Under hesitation, he simply pretended not to know, just like Concubine Zhen, thinking that Xiao Wu would get better when he grew up, but unexpectedly Xiao Wu was not only bad, but became more silent, and in the end, even hurt Xiao Wu. Six lives.

Hearing Xiaowu say such a long string of words, Emperor Pingkang didn't have time to rejoice that the child was finally back to normal, and when he heard Xiaowu say that Concubine Zhen didn't want him, Emperor Pingkang's heart tightened, "What did you say? What concubine Zhen doesn't want you ?”

He frowned. He knew that as Xiao Wu grew older, Concubine Zhen became more afraid that others would find out about Xiao Wu's illness. It was also because of this that he gave her Xiao Jiu again, or else he would follow the palace rules. Concubine Zhen might get pregnant again, she never thought that she would dare to murder Xiao Wu, who is her own flesh and blood.

Emperor Pingkang's face was slightly dark, his face was green and pale, and he finally sighed: "Don't worry, my father will definitely give you an explanation for this matter."

It's not that he doesn't know Concubine Zhen's vicious temperament, but for the sake of the child and Madam Fengsheng, he doesn't care about her, but this time Concubine Zhen really stepped on his bottom line.

"No need!" The fifth prince shook his head, "After all, she gave birth to me, besides, I have really made her worry about me all these years, it's just..."

The fifth prince lowered his eyes slightly, "It's just that from now on, I don't want to see her again."

His mother and concubine gave birth to him, and he had paid back with his life. From now on, he didn't owe her anything.

Hearing the implication of Tu Mingye's words was that he didn't want to recognize his mother, Emperor Pingkang felt sorry for his son, and hated Concubine Zhen for murdering the dragon's heir. After thinking for a while, he finally said: "It's up to you."

Anyway, Concubine Zhen already has Xiao Jiu under her knees, and she is not short of Xiao Wu. Besides, Xiao Wu has been ill since childhood, so it is inevitable that she will be a little immature mentally.

After talking with the Fifth Prince, Emperor Pingkang turned his head to look at Xiao Liu, and said in a low voice: "Xiao Liu, I didn't expect you to be alive, you..."

Emperor Pingkang couldn't bear to reprimand Xiao Liu, and glared at the third and fourth children angrily, "You two, since Xiao Liu is not dead, why don't you report it quickly?"

When Xiao Liu died, he happened to be out of town, and when he returned to Beijing, Xiao Liu had already been buried. He never thought that Xiao Liu was not dead, but why was this matter never reported before?

Thinking of this, Emperor Pingkang couldn't help looking at Xia Dequan. Although the palace was dominated by queens, in fact Xia Dequan was in charge of it secretly.In these years, Xia Dequan really couldn't control the palace except when he went on a personal expedition with him. Except for Xiao Liu's accident, he never let him down at other times. How could he not even know whether Xiao Liu was really dead? ?

But Xia Dequan looked puzzled, as if it was difficult to say.

The fifth prince shook his head, "That's why it's not Liuliu, Liuliu is really dead."

Liuliu died young, and even his soul left after staying in the palace for a while. Presumably, he should have been reincarnated by now.

Emperor Pingkang was taken aback, and the fourth prince boldly stepped forward, unable to hide his pain and said: "Father, he...is really not Xiaoliu."

This person looks very similar to Xiao Liu, but if you look carefully, you can still see the difference between him and Xiao Liu. You can see some traces of the father in between, and his temperament... completely different from the well-behaved and obedient Xiaoliu.

The arrogance in his whole body and the cold arrogance in his face are somewhat similar to Xiao Wu's appearance when he owes a beating.Although he was mistaken for Xiao Liu at the beginning, but after watching him for a while, the fourth prince realized that he was not Xiao Liu.

Although he knew that he was not Xiaoliu, but the eyes of the fourth prince looking at Mo Gu were full of kindness, just because Mo Gu and his mother and concubine have a three-point similar face, he can guarantee that Mo Gu and him must be comparable brothers Get closer.

"Not Xiao Liu!?" Emperor Ping Kang couldn't hide his astonishment, this child looks so much like Xiao Liu, how could he not be Xiao Liu?Could it be...

Emperor Pingkang couldn't help looking at Xia Dequan, Xia Dequan understood and nodded almost imperceptibly.

If Emperor Pingkang didn't ask, it would be difficult for him as an eunuch to mention it, but if Emperor Pingkang asked, he would naturally have to 'tell the truth'.

If Emperor Pingkang was struck by lightning, he felt guilty for a while and didn't know what to do. He secretly calculated and felt very puzzled, why didn't he remember it at all?

Although I don't remember, but seeing the child's appearance, Xia De all nodded to say that the child is indeed his son, and Emperor Ping Kang didn't mean to be irresponsible, coughed lightly, and was about to pull the child to his side When inquiring.

"Hmph!" Mo Gu snorted coldly, "Don't you even know how many children you have?"

He really deserves to be the slag emperor who shoots and ignores.

"Cough..." Emperor Pingkang coughed again in embarrassment, feeling a little aggrieved.

He is not a woman, and he needs to be pregnant for ten months to have a son. Besides, he is an emperor, even if he is not particularly fond of women, there will be a lot of officials presenting beautiful women. He is lucky to have nine if not a hundred women. A dozen or so, and every woman who was in love with them at that time remembers it clearly.

Mo Gu snorted coldly, turned around and left, and the Fifth Prince followed subconsciously.

Without needing Emperor Pingkang to speak, Xia Dequan hastily ordered the little eunuch in Qianqing Palace: "Follow quickly, and wait carefully."

"Yes." Many young eunuchs hurriedly followed up, even the fourth prince was a little uneasy, after Ping Kangdi complained, he hurriedly chased after him.

That's all for Xiao Wu, but the other person's life is very similar to Xiao Liu, and he really doesn't feel at ease if he doesn't ask clearly.

Moreover, the fourth prince harbored some doubts in his heart. Not only did that person look like Xiao Liu, but he was also about the same age as Xiao Liu. Although twins are not allowed in the palace, it is absolutely impossible for the person who inherits the throne to be twins. Could it be that then……

With a hint of possibility in mind, the fourth prince hastily chased after him.

For a while, most of the huge bedroom was gone, and Emperor Pingkang looked at the direction in which the children were leaving, his mind was agitated, and he remained silent.

"Father, are you okay?" After all, the third prince was more caring, and while fanning himself, he comforted him, "It's just that I slept with a woman and forgot, anyway, there are many women who are forgotten after being slept with by the father." That's right, it's not bad, after he comes back, everyone can explain it."

To put it bluntly, even the concubines in the palace will be forgotten after sleeping, let alone the women outside the palace.

"..." Emperor Pingkang was silent for a long time, secretly glad that the person who looked like Xiaoliu was not there, otherwise after hearing these words, wouldn't he be regarded as a lustful person.

Emperor Pingkang stroked his forehead helplessly, "You go down!"

Only now did he realize that his third prince's cheating nature was ah.Hearing the nonsense of the third child, I'm afraid he wasn't overwhelmed by the new son, but was pissed off by the third child first.

"Yes!" Although the third prince felt a little regretful that he couldn't watch more good shows, but after thinking about it, after this brother came back, the palace would be up and down for a while, not bad for this moment, let alone thinking about the little one before. The Third Prince couldn't wait to share with his own mother the matter Wu mentioned about Concubine Zhen.

After the third prince left, Emperor Pingkang sent all the other eunuchs and court ladies away, and then asked Xia Dequan directly: "What's going on? That child... what's going on?"

As the saying goes, a child cannot be born secretly, even if he doesn't remember the child's mother, but look at that child, look at the fourth child, and look at himself, how could he not see that it is his own flesh and blood, but... Why can't I remember it at all?

Xia Dequan was a little helpless, and quickly took out the daily notes, and turned to the records of the daughter of the Mo family in the Rongguo Mansion 17 years ago: "My lord, the child calls himself Mo Gu, and he was born to a daughter of the Mo family."

Even though he took Jia Yuan's money back then, for some reason, when he wanted to destroy the record of the living note several times, he always couldn't do it, and in the end he just let it go. Anyway, the living note is just a record I was fortunate enough to hear about the Mo family daughter's news, and never talked about the Mo family daughter's pregnancy, so it was not considered a breach of contract.

"Daughter of the Mo family!?" Emperor Pingkang looked at the record in the daily life note, frowned slightly, thought of Concubine De for a moment, and then thought about the child's similar appearance to the fourth child, "Could it be..."

"Yes." Xia Dequan said in a low voice: "The prince is the elder sister of Empress Depin, who was born to the daughter of the Mo family who was married to the Jia family in Rongguo Mansion as a concubine."

Emperor Pingkang's expression turned pale, "What's going on? Tell me now!"

If he remembered correctly, after the crimes committed by the Mo family, the girls of the Mo family should not have entered the Ye court as maids, just like concubines, how could they have fallen outside?Still married to Rongguo Mansion?

The woman he was lucky enough to marry into Rongguo Mansion pregnant with his flesh and blood, is this a cuckold for him?Or give Jia Daishan a cuckold?

"Yes!" Xia Dequan told everything in detail, except that he already knew that Aunt Mo had given birth to a prince for the Holy One, and sent someone to protect Mo Gu's story, and also concealed Jia Shishi's past for the Jia family. The story of Mo Gu being abducted and bought, in a few short sentences, tells the origin of Mo Gu's birth.

Emperor Pingkang pondered slightly, "This matter is a bit difficult."

He originally thought that since he is a prince, he can't be allowed to drift away, so he has to recognize him. If his mother is still alive, he will also bring him back. In the royal cemetery, one never expected that the daughter of the Mo family would become a married woman.

Emperor Pingkang pondered for a long time, "Does the Jia family know about this?"

Xia Dequan evaded and said, "Old slave, let someone investigate."

Although he knew that Jia Yuan and his wife knew about it, it was only a few hours since he discovered the old prince. It was already the limit to be able to find out the life experience of the old prince within a few hours. , On the contrary, it will make the Holy One suspicious, some things, it is better to do less than to do more.

Emperor Pingkang sighed, "Come on!"

After pondering for a long time, he said: "I'll give you three days to investigate all the things about my old son carefully."

"Yes." Xia Dequan looked at the face of the Holy Majesty, and asked cautiously: "Could it be that the Holy Majesty wants to recognize the old prince?"

Xia Dequan was very surprised. He thought that he might give money as compensation with such a face-saving temperament, but it was absolutely impossible to recognize him as a prince openly. He never thought that the Holy Majesty was scared Surprised, he turned sexual.

Emperor Pingkang shook his head, "He is the concubine of the Rongguo Mansion now, how can I recognize him?" With this recognition, his reputation and that of the Rongguo Mansion were all lost.

Sure enough, the Holy One is still the same Holy One.

Xia Dequan nodded, expressing his understanding: "Old slave, let someone investigate."

Emperor Pingkang remembered something again, "You said that Xiao Liu'er who rescued you back then, could it be..."

Thinking about it now, it would be too strange to say that Xiao Liu'er was still protecting him after he turned into a ghost, but if it was the old man, it was somewhat possible.

The more Emperor Pingkang thought about it, the more annoyed he became. After he didn't favor others back then, he brought back the daughter of the Mo family and let her enter the Jia's mansion with his flesh and blood. , and made my head a little green...

Emperor Pingkang secretly thought that the daughter of the Mo family was remarried, although she couldn't recognize the child clearly, she couldn't be wronged.According to the law, this prince is the same as the prince, no matter how bad he is, he should be a county king. In terms of treatment, there is also a prince who can compare.

If you dare to cuckold him, you have to pay a price...

Although the fourth prince and a group of eunuchs and maids chased after him quickly, but Mo Gu and Tu Mingye were both cultivators, and the two hurried on their way with all their strength. The fourth prince and others could catch up, and they did not disturb the palace. Guards, with a whoosh, leave the Forbidden City directly with a secret method.

After waiting for no one, Tu Mingye said apologetically, "So, I'm sorry."

It was all because he was worried about his father that he accompanied him into the palace to see his father.

Mo Gu comforted him: "Don't say silly things, as long as he sees me, it's no wonder that my affairs don't come out."

Mo Gu also knew in his heart that if Emperor Zha didn't see him, it was impossible not to doubt his background after seeing him, as long as he was in the capital, seeing him sooner and seeing him later, he still had to see him once.

But that's it. With Emperor Zha's character, it is absolutely impossible to risk the reputation of cuckolding Jia Daishan to recognize him, and he may be asked to leave Beijing as many as possible to avoid being noticed by outsiders.

Mo Gu stroked his chin. Thinking of this, he suddenly felt that he was at a loss. Not only did he not eat a grain of rice from Emperor Zha, but he was also kicked out of the capital. The more he thought about it... the more Mo Gu felt that he was at a loss, should he think about it? How can I get it back?

"So why!?" Seeing Mo Guxiao's wickedness, Tu Mingye quietly moved a few steps to the side, always feeling... so sinister.

When Mo Gu returned to Mo Mansion, he suddenly found that the whole mansion was waiting for him, "What's wrong?"

He looked at Mo Da and Mo Er who were still wearing groom and bride clothes, and wondered, "Why are you here?"

The bridal chamber wedding night is one of the four great joys in life, so why don't Mo Da and Mo Er just ignore it?

Mo Da sighed: "The young master was brought into the palace suddenly. I was worried, but I still had that kind of thought. It's a pity that we can't enter the palace, so we can only wait outside the palace."

In fact, if the young master doesn't come out again, Mo San and Mo Si, these two brainless people, still want to rob the sanctuary.For his grandma, what kind of execution ground is there? At most, the Holy Majesty will lock up the young master or send him out of Beijing, and he will not kill his parents and children.

Even though he understood this reason, Mo Da paced back and forth in Mo's mansion uneasy, wishing that it would be dawn soon so that he could enter the palace to have a look.

Mo Gu said angrily: "Now I finally know how to be afraid!?"

As an ancient man, Mo Da should have understood the horror of imperial power better than him, and he still wanted to push him to that position, so he really couldn't die.

Mo Da felt aggrieved, "This time it's really none of my business."

Conscience, it's none of his business this time, no matter what, he would never want to turn his once-in-a-lifetime wedding banquet into a thriller scene.

At that time, the Holy Majesty fainted in a remote courtyard, and Eunuch Xia and others could quietly bring the Holy Majesty back. If the Holy Majesty fainted in front of many guests at the wedding banquet, there would be another disturbance in the court. Mo Dalu thought about it Thinking about it, I broke out in a cold sweat, secretly thinking that it was dangerous.

Mo Gu snorted coldly, waved his hands and said, "Okay, let's go down, and continue doing what you should do."

Seeing that Mo Da seemed to have something else to ask, he glared at Mo Da, "Behave yourself, and be your official in peace, don't think about anything you shouldn't think about."

He paused and said, "I don't want to say the same thing a second time, otherwise, don't blame me..."

At the end, Mo Gu had a hint of threat, Mo Da's eyes dimmed, and he bowed and said, "Mo Da understands."

In fact, he has already done what he can do, and next, the Holy Majesty must recognize the young master, and the young master has the title of prince, so that he can continue to do other things, otherwise...he can only stop here.

Don't worry, the figures also went back to the room to rest. Although they were full of doubts, they could see that the young master didn't want to talk about this matter, and the young master rarely showed such a tired look, so how could they bother the young master again? Woolen cloth.Anyway, big brother knows the inside story, so just ask big brother, there is no need to disturb young master.

On the other hand, Mo Er looked Mo Da up and down, his lips were tightly pursed, and there was a faint displeasure.

After such a big thing happened, even Mrs. Lin and Zhang could not continue to stay in the backyard waiting for the news, and waited in the front yard with the other children. Although she also had a lot of questions to ask, she saw Mo Gu's expression on her face. Looking tired, he pondered for a long time, and finally dragged Xiao Mojiang down as well.

She seemed to understand the sarcasm between Mo Da and the old young master, but she knew one thing, the old young master was taken away by the palace people earlier.

Looking at the deep confinement in the palace, thinking about the wronged and wronged father and grandfather, Lin Zhang's eyes drooped slightly.

In the end, the one who refused to leave was Jian Hao and Jia She, a pair of troubled brothers. The two stayed together, but they had different expressions. Jian Hao had an excited expression, while Jia She had a dark expression. Of course.

Jian Hao couldn't help but asked, "Brother Gu, does the Holy Majesty recognize you?"

If the old brother can recognize his ancestors and return to the clan, he will also fulfill his mother's last wish.

Upon hearing Jian Hao's words, Jia She was shocked, with disbelief all over his face.He was at the same table with his old brother just now, so he naturally saw the man who claimed to be 'Zhen' who suddenly barged in, and the two young men behind him.

Seeing Shengyan came out of nowhere, but Jia Amnesty didn't take it seriously. He is the eldest son of the Rongguo Mansion, and he also entered the palace with his grandparents when there were feasts on weekdays. Although the distance is a bit far away, look He didn't know the face of the Holy Majesty, but he still remembered the voice of the Holy Majesty.

Since that man is the Holy One, and the two people behind him are wearing splendid clothes, and they look somewhat similar to the Holy One, they are naturally the princes.

The one who hit him later was fine, but the one who was almost fainted from fright looked like an older brother.

Then think about the grandmother's attitude of respecting her late brother more than love when she was young, and the attitude of her grandmother who was worried but faintly relieved after her old brother disappeared, and... the attitude of my brother's junior brother Ye who didn't intend to reveal it, Jia She couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

He couldn't help touching his face. When he was a child, everyone said that he was very similar to his brother, and he knew he was a brother at a glance. He was also complacent about it, but he didn't know when he looked like his brother. He looks more and more like his father, and his brother...

Jia Amnesty's heart sank, and this worried and nervous mood inevitably brought out a little bit.

As soon as Mo Gu saw Jia She's appearance, he knew that he had noticed something.

Mo Gu patted Jia She on the shoulder, "It's time to explain to you."

Jia Amnesty grabbed Mo Gu's clothes tightly, tears streaming down his face at some point.
