As Prince Shan had expected, Chu Chen was summoned to the south study room by the emperor and scolded him.
Chu Chen didn't say a word, kneeling on the ground and letting himself be beaten and scolded.
The emperor scolded him for a cup of tea. Seeing Chu Chen obediently letting the scolding go, his anger not only did not subside, but was held in his heart and did not come out. He was so angry that he fell on his back
He pointed at Chu Chen, "You think I can only scold you, but I can't help you, right? Speak to me!"
Chu Chen said dullly, "Uncle, why don't you beat me to relieve my anger?"
"Now you know how to call me your uncle? Why didn't you tell me about such a big matter in advance? But you did it in the court in front of all the civil and military officials? Are you capable?" The emperor was even more angry.<
/p>
Chu Chen replied confidently, "If my nephew comes to you in private with those criminal evidences, you will definitely protect Concubine Shun."
The emperor choked.
Chu Chen seemed to be willing to give up, "If the emperor is angry, he will either beat his nephew up, or he will be dismissed from the official position. Anyway, the nephew does not feel that he has done anything wrong. He is an official and is in the Yushitai.
The Shitai has the duty of supervising all officials. It also has the responsibility of admonishing His Majesty. The emperor put me on the Yushitai. I cannot just hang around with my salary from the imperial court and not do serious things."
"Is it your business to throw my face in the court?" The emperor raised his foot and kicked him.
Chu Chen was hit and remained motionless, "What kind of women are there in the world? Why does the emperor only favor a concubine? The concubine was guilty before entering the palace, but after entering the palace, she still remained unruly and secretly collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country to murder Princess An.
, if the crime is not severely punished, who knows whether her courage will be nurtured by you, the emperor? Then it will be a disaster inside and outside the palace walls."
The emperor became furious and said, "You bastard, you are still fresh and you have come to teach me a lesson. Are you going to change the style of your Prince Shanqin's palace starting from you? Get out of here and go back to your home to think about your mistakes. Without my will, you can't do it."
About half a step out of the house."
Chu Chen slowly got up from the ground and respectfully excused himself, "Uncle Emperor, please think twice before you act."
The emperor was furious and said, "Get out!"
Chu Chen walked backward out of the south study room and rolled out of the palace.
After he left the palace gate, he felt refreshed and thought that the emperor said that he would go back to his home to think about his mistakes, but he didn't say which house he would go back to. Could he change his mind and go to An's old house to think about his mistakes behind closed doors?
As soon as the idea came to his mind, he saw the carriage parked at the door. The carriage was all black and low-key. However, the word "Gu" on the license plate was very conspicuous.
He raised his eyebrows, approached the carriage, came to the front, and asked, "Master Gu? Are you waiting for me?"
Gu Qingyan opened the car curtain and said with a smile, "Little Prince Chen, can we chat in the car?"
Chu Chen snorted coldly and muttered, "What can I talk to you about?", but still got on the carriage neatly.
Gu Qingyan looked at him carefully, poured him a cup of tea, smiled and said, "Young Prince Chen has worked hard to get rid of an enemy for the little princess."
Chu Chen didn't answer and looked at him coldly, "It's her who should thank me. You don't need to thank me."
"As her fiancé, I thank her in the same way." Gu Qingyan passed the teacup forward, "Young Prince Chen has been scolded by His Majesty for so long, aren't you thirsty?"
Chu Chen was naturally thirsty, and there were few opportunities for Gu Qingyan to hand him tea. Although he didn't want to acknowledge his thanks, he still reached out to take the tea cup and drank it all.
"His Majesty is still angry and sent the young prince out of the palace to make you think about your mistakes behind closed doors?" Gu Qingyan asked with a smile.
Chu Chen looked at him straight, "Yes, Your Majesty didn't say why you should think about your mistakes behind closed doors, so I plan to go to An's old house to think about my mistakes."
"I'm afraid you have to give up this idea. Three daughters now live in the An family's old house. Without the elders, it's not appropriate for you to go." Gu Qingyan pointed out bluntly.
Chu Chen snorted coldly, "One is my biological sister and the other is a cousin. I don't trust them. Go and watch them nearby. Who will tell gossip?"
"Young prince, you mean that I have to live in with you? After all, I also have to look after my fiancée." Gu Qingyan raised his eyebrows.
Chu Chen choked and said, "Gu Qingyan, you have to show some face."
"I also want to return this to the young prince. Since you didn't agree to Wang Anzhi, you gave up the idea and stopped attracting her attention." Gu Qingyan talked to him honestly, "Even without me, she would not marry
You, she doesn’t have that heart for you. The Shanqin Palace is also a clan, and your Majesty will not allow the clan to marry the An family. If the marriage really happened, Your Majesty might not be able to sleep at night. It is not easy for the old prince to support the success of the Shanqin Palace.
, don’t let His Majesty get angry and drive Prince Shanqin’s Palace out of the capital, and just designate a bitter and cold place as a fiefdom, then your life will be over.”
Chu Chen's face darkened and he stared at him, "It's not as serious as you said."
Gu Qingyan sighed softly, "Since ancient times, there have been many wise kings who have never been able to protect themselves. Your Majesty's love for concubines is a signal. Today you have stood in the court and made your voice heard, attracting the attention of all officials. Your Majesty has not lost his sense.
, so you persuaded everyone and retreated from the palace. But in the future, I am afraid that such radicalism will not happen again. Your Majesty can tolerate you once, but cannot tolerate you twice. And his tolerance for himself will not be tolerated again.
The deeper your love for a concubine, the more relaxed you will be. Whose advice will you listen to?"
Chu Chen looked at her with an ugly face, "After all, you still don't want me to give up on Xiao An'er?"
"Yes." Gu Qingyan said warmly, "I asked you to give up on her. Otherwise, once what you have done is used by others, it will be a sharp sword that may pierce her. Naturally I don't want to
See, if you give up on her and you are kind to the palace, you will no longer have any weaknesses. There will be no need for others to take advantage of her."
"Who are you referring to?" Chu Chen stared at him, "You want to seduce my King Jing in the court today? Is there an opportunity?"
"The people who see that you care about her are not only King Jing. What you do today will fly out of the capital like snowflakes, and will be known to the whole world." Gu Qingyan twirled his fingers, "When the emperor is in a coma, that is
The beginning of a national disaster. If you have no weaknesses, you and the Prince's Mansion will not be involved in the quagmire."
Chu Chen pursed his lips, "Do you really think I have no chance?"
"No. Even if I am not the one who marries her, you have no chance." Gu Qingyan shook her head and told him truthfully, "Without me, King Nanyang would choose Cui Zhuo from the Cui family for her, and she would marry Cui Zhuo every year.
I have lived with Cui Zhuo for a month, and I am very familiar with Cui Zhuo, not a stranger. The Cui family is close to Nanyang Army, and under the same family background, he has a much greater advantage than me."
Chu Chen was stunned for a while, then suddenly burst out laughing, "Gu Qingyan, it turns out you have this day too!"
Gu Qingyan was not afraid of his jokes, "Little Prince Chen, if you step back from the brink in time, it will only be good for you, not bad."
Chu Chen stopped laughing and said, "I have to ask Xiao An'er again."
"Yes."
Even if asked a hundred times, Gu Qingyan believed that An Huajin's answer to Chu Chen would be the same. She was a straightforward and decisive person, except when facing him. If it wasn't him who was engaged to her,
She must have simply called off the engagement long ago.
"What's going on between you and Wang Anzhi? I guess Wang Anzhi revealed the news about the nebula calculation to Shunbi, and Wang Anzhi didn't deny it." Chu Chen thought that Wang Anzhi was not a simple person. He traveled abroad for four years, and after returning to Beijing,
Just getting involved in this matter shows that he has some intentions.
"He is just against me." Gu Qingyan didn't want to say more about Wang Anzhi.
Chu Chen nodded, "Okay, then I won't ask. I'm going to An's old house, can you go?"
Gu Qingyan shook his head, "I'm going to the official department."
Chu Chen got off the carriage neatly, got on his horse, and instead of going directly back to Prince Shan's Mansion to think about his mistakes, he went directly to the An family's old house.
An Huajin naturally got the news from the court, and she also admired Chu Chen a little for being able to make this matter such a big deal, making it difficult for His Majesty to ride a tiger. Even if he doesn't give death to flowers like jade, more or less, he will still have to
Punishment. At the very least, the flower-like jade pampering in the Sixth Palace is over for the time being.
Chu Siyan held her chin and said, "Ah, my brother is so awesome."
Chu Xiyun nodded, "My cousin is quite powerful."
An Hua Jin smiled, "It's amazing. I'm afraid if I get a mark in front of His Majesty, I'll have to keep my tail between my legs in the future."
Chu Siyan blinked her eyes and said in horror, "My brother's temperament means that he can live with his tail between his legs. Can he bear it?"
"Then it depends on him." An Huajin felt that Chu Chen was flexible and flexible. Although this matter was big, it was not a big deal. At least, in the eyes of civil and military officials and countless people, he did not
Made a mistake.
"Hua Siyu, this witch." Chu Xiyun scolded.
An Huajin held the tea cup, thinking that the medicine she gave Hua Siyu would take effect in half a day. In half a day, His Majesty should also think of how to cure her without hurting her. But
As soon as His Majesty punished her, she caught wind and cold. I wonder if His Majesty sent her an imperial doctor to see her? Or not.
