3720. Chapter One Four Hundred Thirty-Six Sobering Up
Ling Ruo said expressionlessly: "Throw it at Ai Jia and let him sober up!"
At this moment, Jin Ping had brought in the brewed sobering tea, but it was useless. Yang Hai struggled to lift the bucket and poured it on Yong Rong's head.
It was a cold day at this time, and the feeling of being poured on the head by a bucket of cold water could not be expressed in words. Yong Rong was soaked all over, shivering, and his drunkenness was suppressed immediately.
Ling Ruo looked at him and said coldly: "What's up? Are you awake?"
Yong Rong's head was a little dazed from being splashed, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. After he remembered what he had just done, he hurriedly knelt down and said, "My grandson is drunk and confused. Please forgive me, Queen Grandma, and Queen Ama.
Your Majesty, please forgive me!"
"Drunk and confused?" Ling Ruo said with a half-smile but not a smile: "Listen, Ai Jia, it sounds like you are telling the truth after being drunk. Yong Rong, are you dissatisfied with the emperor?"
"My grandson doesn't dare!" Yong Rong said with fear on his face: "My grandson didn't even know what he was talking about just now. He was really drunk and he was talking nonsense. My grandson... my grandson will never dare to do it again in the future.
, please forgive my grandson this time."
Ling Ruo ignored his words and just said: "Why do you drink so much wine?"
"My grandson..." Yong Rong tried his best to think about it and said: "My grandson was happy for a moment and drank a few more drinks without knowing it. As a result, he was too drunk and made a big mistake. My grandson will never dare to drink too much in the future. Please invite the emperor."
Grandma forgives her grandson this time."
Yongxuan quickly helped him and said, "It's also my grandson's fault. She knew her sixth brother was not a good drinker, but she still forced him to drink. If the imperial grandmother wants to blame her, let's blame her grandson."
Ling Ruo glanced at him and said in a cold tone: "Has the Ai family asked you anything?"
Yong Xun was so stared at that his whole body shivered, and he lowered his head and did not dare to speak. Ling Ruo withdrew his gaze and said in a cold voice: "Which one of you is serving the fourth elder brother and the sixth elder brother, come forward!"
The little eunuch stepped forward tremblingly and said in a trembling voice: "Queen Mother Qi, you are a slave!"
Ling Ruo said slowly: "After the banquet begins, I will tell the Ai family everything about the two elder brothers. If they make any false claims, they will be dragged out immediately and beaten to death with sticks!"
The little eunuch's legs were weak, he swallowed hard, and said truthfully: "Returning to the Queen Mother, before... the sixth elder brother had been drinking non-stop. The fourth elder brother persuaded the sixth elder brother several times not to drink like this, but
The sixth elder brother refused to listen and kept drinking more and more. I remember that I took six jugs of wine in total, five of which were drunk by the sixth elder brother alone."
"Drinking alone..." Ling Ruo looked sharply and said, "Yong Rong, is this what you call happiness, is this what you call a few more drinks?"
At this time, Yong Rong had nothing to say and could only kowtow: "My grandson's sin is unforgivable, and he is willing to be punished by the imperial grandmother!"
Ling Ruo's face was as dark as a pool of water, she stared at him and said, "Tell me, why do you want to drink alone?"
Yong Rong quietly glanced in the direction of Wei Jingxuan. The latter saw his eyes looking over and showed a hint of panic. She had already guessed Yong Rong's thoughts. Once Yong Rong mentioned Wei Xiuyan, Hongli and Ling Ruo would definitely be dissatisfied.
, when the time comes, I'm afraid it will bring disaster to her, ruin everything she has worked hard to arrange today, and return to the endless neglect.
She wanted to remind Yong Rong, but at the moment, Ling Ruo, Hongli, and Xianyue were all staring at Yong Rong, and there was no chance for her to speak. She could only pray in her heart that Yong Rong would be smarter and not be stupid enough to mention Wei Xiuyan.
.
Hongli noticed Yongrong's gaze, understood something in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Are you still blaming me?"
This sentence made Wei Jingxuan's heart skip a beat, her heart almost jumped into her throat, and her hands tightly grasped the table curtain underneath. Yong Rong's next sentence would not only affect Wei Xiuyan, but also her!
Yong Rong gritted his teeth. After a long time, he raised his head and said, "Yes, I am blaming Emperor Ama!"
Hongli looked at him gloomily and was about to speak when Yongrong said again: "No matter what the third brother did wrong, he is Huang Ama's biological flesh and blood. They say blood is thicker than water, but these twelve
Over the years, Huang Ama has ignored him and allowed him to fend for himself in the clan's mansion. You...how can you be so cruel!"
Hongli thought that Yong Rong was blaming himself for breaking up him and Wei Xiuyan. Unexpectedly, Yong Rong said such words and his expression became a little strange. After a while, he said: "You will also say that Yong Rong did something wrong.
If you have done something wrong, you should be punished!"
Yong Rong took a deep breath and said: "Yes, the third brother did something wrong and deserves to be punished, but has Huang Ama ever thought about why the third brother went to that point? All along, the only thing you care about is Huang Eniang.
With my twelfth brother, if my twelfth brother is ill, please let Ziyun watch.
The Wanshou Temple prayed for the twelfth brother all night long, and ordered all the imperial doctors to stay at Kunning Palace day and night. If it were the third brother or the son-in-law, I am afraid that Huang Ama would not have spent so much effort. If he could be saved, it would be nothing.
It’s just one missing son, it doesn’t matter!”
"You are wrong!" Xianyue stood up and walked to Yong Rong, who was still dripping water, and said in a serious voice: "If it was you or Yong Zhang who got smallpox, the emperor would do the same thing, and there would be no difference.
"
"There won't be any difference?" Yong Rong chuckled. The next moment, he stood up suddenly and said loudly: "If that were the case, Huang Ama would not have ignored the third brother for so many years, and would not even allow us to mention it.
"If this is the case, he will not break up Xiuyan and me! We regard him as a close relative, but he...doesn't care about the relationship between father and son at all!" He finally said what he had hidden in his heart...
Xianyue stared at Yong Rong, who looked ferocious and desolate, and said: "Since the third elder brother was imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion, every month at the end of the month, the emperor would summon Zong Zheng, who was responsible for guarding the third elder brother, to enter the palace and question the three elder brothers in detail.
Elder brother’s condition; if you know that third elder brother is unwell
, he asked the imperial physician to come over for diagnosis and treatment; he gave fruits and vegetables in the spring, ice in the summer, and fresh fruits and vegetables in the autumn and cotton-padded clothes in the winter. If this is also called indifference, it is also called not caring about the relationship between father and son. Then Sixth Brother... tell me,
What does caring mean, what does father-son love mean?"
Yong Rong was left speechless by her questioning. After a while, he shook his head with suspicion and said: "You...you are talking nonsense. There is no such thing at all. Otherwise, how could I never heard of it."
"Is this palace talking nonsense?" Xianyue sneered: "If you don't believe it, I can call Zong Zheng here now and confront you to see if I have any lies!" After a pause, she continued: "As for
Why haven't you heard about it? It's very simple, because all this was done by the emperor in the name of Zongzheng. Apart from the emperor, I am the only one
Everyone knows that as a king, the emperor has to regulate the law; as a father, the emperor has to take care of every heir. The hardships involved are really hard to explain to outsiders. Over the years, you have always thought that the emperor has treated you unfairly. Have you ever asked yourself,
As a son of man, have you ever tried your best to share the worries of your Majesty in court affairs? Have you ever done anything before doing anything?
Think about your own identity? Think about your Emperor Ama?" Before Yong Rong could answer, she shook her head and said: "No, you always only act according to your own preferences; I know that the real relationship between you and the Emperor is
The knot in your heart is not because of Third Brother, but because of Wei Xiuyan. You hate the emperor for breaking you up, and you hate Yongxun, Yongxun and the others for not helping you.
So these days, I have become more and more alienated from them, and tonight there was even more trouble. But Yongrong, have you ever thought about your Emperor Ama? Once you accept someone who has been married before and is older than you,
Fujin, everyone here will become a laughing stock, including your emperor Ama; when the time comes, how do you want him to control the ministers and govern the world?"
