Su Ren and Liu Che hid in the propaganda room, eating braised pork brought by Su Ren, drinking and chatting. There were several young guys beside them, some Su Ren knew, some Su Ren didn't know, Wei Qing and
Li Danghu had met Su Ren, and had been rescued by Su Ren. He was very polite to Su Ren. Gongsun Ao and Gongsun He had never met Su Ren, but they had admired Su Ren for a long time. They finally met today, and they felt the same way.
very happy.
The braised pork is good. I thought it was cheap meat, but when I tasted it, it tasted better than mutton or even beef. This gathering was convened by Liu Che. As an emperor, he actually has no friends. The emperor is also a human being and needs friends. Su Ren
These ministers of similar age should be treated as friends!
Liu Che picked up a piece of pig ear, put it into his mouth, and chewed it loudly: "Last time I was at your house, I didn't eat much. This time, you are wise, otherwise, I would have to go there again.
A trip to the palace is difficult!”
Su Ren took a sip of wine and said, "Don't say I don't agree with you. If you say the word "I" again, we will kneel down immediately to see how you eat."
Gongsun Ao and Gongsun He looked at Su Ren blankly. They didn't expect this guy to speak so directly. Li Danghu frowned and reached out to poke Su Ren. Su Ren looked back at Li Danghu and said, "Poke me."
What? Your Majesty does want to be respected, and that also depends on the occasion. In the court, in front of outsiders, Your Majesty is aloof, and we are all His Majesty's ministers, so etiquette is indispensable."
"But this is private, His Majesty is our friend! From the time we sit here in a circle, there is no hierarchy. We are all the same, we are all brothers and friends! Having said that,
Let me just say a few more words. Speaking of which, I have the lowest status. I am not as good as you, brother Wei Qing, or even His Majesty. I am not as old as Gongsun Ao, and my family is not as prominent as Gongsun He. But starting from today,
Your Majesty is our leader, you, you, you, the five of us swear that we will help your big brother, Your Majesty, for the rest of our lives, no matter how difficult it is!"
After Su Ren finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass and said, "How about it? If he breaks his oath in the future, others will kill him!"
In front of Liu Che, several people did not hesitate. They picked up the wine glasses, touched them hard, and drank them all in one gulp. Liu Che was also excited by Su Ren's words. This was what he wanted to do with these people. As a
It's not easy for the emperor to talk about this. Su Ren made it clear today, and several people responded positively, which made Liu Che very satisfied. He laughed several times: "We share adversity and wealth together!"
Several people clinked glasses again and laughed several times after drinking.
Liu Piao was also drinking at home. What she drank was boring wine. After the powerful people were driven away, Liu Piao suddenly felt that there was no one around her who could talk to her. She began to miss Yao Shuai, Guo Xie and others. If those two were here, what would they be?
She would definitely not be able to swallow the humiliation of the bullshit Monument of Merit. One could be good at literature and the other could be good at martial arts. At least they could gain some face.
Chen Tie gently opened the door, walked to Liu Piao, and saluted respectfully: "Mother, are you looking for a child?"
Liu Piao turned his head, his eyes were full of anger, his teeth gritted, he stared at his second son fiercely, and slowly stood up. Chen Tiao knew what Liu Piao wanted to do, but he neither dodge nor retreat.
, stood with a calm expression.
"Pa!" A crisp slap in the face made Chen Jie stagger. The timid maids around him opened their mouths in surprise and quickly covered it with their hands, not daring to make any sound.
Liu Piao hit him four or five times in a row. The corners of Chen Tie's mouth were cut, blood flowed from his nostrils, and his cheeks became red and swollen. Liu Piao shouted almost hysterically: "You are not my son.
From today on you are not my son!"
Chen Tie did not have much status in the family. His father, Chen Wu, was the queen of Tangyi, and his mother, Princess Liu Piao of Guantao, both treated him lukewarmly. The eldest brother was Chen's eldest son, and his sister was the queen. Their parents' thoughts were all on these two people. Although Chen
Teach has no worries about food and clothing. No one asks when he goes out, and no one cares whether he comes back or not. He is very free. But compared to his elder brother Chen Xu and younger sister Chen Ajiao, Chen Tie is the most thoughtful.
Wiping the blood on his face, Chen Tie smiled: "Yes, I am not your son. My eldest brother is the eldest son and my sister is the queen. I am nothing. I am not even qualified to be named Chen, so I still care.
What? I am a superfluous person. Today, I will call you mother for the last time. Thank you for giving birth to me, mother!" The last call made by Chen Jie was very sincere. After calling him, he turned around and left without saying a word.
Take a look at Liu whoring.
Liu Prostitute's tears couldn't stop flowing down. No one around the servants dared to come forward. They had never seen the princess shed tears before. This was the first time. She collapsed on the ground and cried uncontrollably. The sound of howling could be heard outside the princess's house.
Everyone heard it clearly. Suddenly, Liu Piao stopped crying, got up from the ground, pointed at the door, and shouted loudly: "Okay! If you can, don't come back if you leave!"
"The Empress Dowager doesn't protect me, my nephew and son-in-law don't like me, and my son doesn't recognize me as his mother. He's running away, all of them! Never let me see you again!" He turned around and put several cases on the case.
The cups, plates, and bowls were all thrown to the ground, clinking and smashing into pieces. He gritted his teeth and said two words fiercely: "Su Ren!"
The old butler hurried in and saw the mess. He looked around and shouted angrily: "What are you still looking at? If you don't clean it up quickly, if His Highness is injured, you will all die!"
The servants were frightened and rushed over, lowered their heads and began to pick up the fragments on the ground. After the servants all retreated, the old housekeeper walked up behind Liu Prostitute and saluted: "Your Highness?"
Liu Prostitute rolled his eyes and stared at the old housekeeper. The old housekeeper sighed: "Hey! Tang Yihou is dead!"
After Chen Wu, the Marquis of Tangyi, discovered the affair between Liu Piao and Yao Shuai, he became bedridden in anger, unable to speak or move. After the imperial doctor made the diagnosis, they all shook their heads and sighed. At that time, Liu Piao was in a domineering and domineering state.
At the highest point, he didn't care about Chen Wu's life or death at all. He lay in bed for more than half a year. Chen Wu ran out of energy and walked his final journey.
The death of Marquis Tangyi is a big deal. The palace of Marquis Tangyi and the palace of Princess Guantao are not in the same place, but Marquis Tangyi is Liu Piao's husband. If he is dead, Liu Piao has the right to know. When Liu Piao comes,
, the Tangyi Houfu has been filled with white, and it is almost covered with white cloth from the outside to the inside. The courtyard is lifeless, except for a few servants, there is no one else.
No matter which dynasty the prince-in-law was in, he would never dare to raise any other women except for a princess and his wife, not counting the unnamed concubines. When Tang Yihou died, Liu Piao was at home lecturing his second son Chen.
Teach me, the eldest son Chen Wu went to live and drink in some unknown place, and his daughter Chen Ajiao was in the palace. It can be said that Chen Wu died tragically, and there was no family around him when he closed his eyes.
Looking at her husband who was almost as thin as a man on the couch, Liu Piao could not tell whether he was sad or uncomfortable. He looked at it from a distance without saying a word. After looking at it for a long time, Liu Piao turned around and walked out the door: "Go and get everything."
Find everyone, and then send someone to the palace to tell the queen!"
"No!" the old housekeeper agreed quickly.
Liu Prostitute walked all the way out of the Tangyi Hou Mansion. She was unwilling to stay there for one more minute. It wasn't until after lunch that Chen Xucai came back, smelling of wine. He looked up at the white flowers on the door and took a drink.
Hiccup, he said angrily: "What's going on? That boy doesn't want to live anymore, dares to hang white flowers on my door?"
Menzi quickly supported Chen Xu and said with a cry: "Eldest Young Master, you are back, master, master..."
"What's wrong? Tell me nicely?"
"The master has passed away!"
Chen Xu shook his head, and Menzi said it again. Chen Xu was stunned for a long time, then suddenly smiled and said: "Dead? Are you sure you are dead?"
Menzi was stunned and nodded quickly. Chen Xu opened the door and turned to leave. Menzi quickly stopped him: "Eldest Young Master, where are you going? The master has passed away. You are the eldest son, so you should..."
Before Menzi finished speaking, Chen Xu laughed and said, "I can't inherit the title of Marquis of Tangyi, so why should I be contacted? Whoever inherits the title of Marquis of Tangyi should ask for it!"
Seeing Chen Xu staggering away, still singing an obscene ditty he heard somewhere, Menzi didn't know what to do at all, so he thought about it and ran away from home.
The housekeeper was directing people to set up a mourning hall in the lobby. After hearing what the doorman said, he almost fainted and stomped on the ground: "What evil has happened to the Chen family?"
The news of Tangyi Hou's death soon spread in Chang'an City. If a real Chang'an person does not care about the affairs of Tangyi Hou Mansion and Guantao Princess Mansion, then he is not a qualified Chang'an person. In the past ten years,
, these two places are the most prominent places in Chang'an City, even attracting more attention than the imperial palace. As soon as Tang Yihou died in the morning, the entire Chang'an City knew about it in the afternoon.
The newly opened Cuixiang Restaurant next to the Chengxi Market soon opened its market in Chang'an with its exquisite food and fine wine. Merchants who traveled all over the country, after having a meal at the Cuixiang Restaurant in Shu County, came to visit again.
I can’t forget the smell there. Now that Cuixiang Restaurant has opened in Chang’an, I naturally want to visit more. Not only businessmen from other places, but also local merchants in Chang’an also praise Cuixiang Restaurant’s wine and food.
Before dinner arrived, several Chang'an merchants were sitting at a table facing the street. Looking at the servants and servants of the Tangyi Hou Mansion coming to purchase on the street, several people quickly changed the topic to Tangyi Hou Chen Wu.
On the body of Princess Liu of Guantao.
"Did you hear that? Yesterday, Princess Guantao led people to smash the merit monument that the Imperial Academy had just erected, and she forced them to beat her back!"
"How could you not have heard about such a big thing? That Shu County Su Ren really dared to take action. He is also a powerful person!"
"By the way, it is said that Chen Wu, the Marquis of Tangyi, died because of Su Ren's anger. When did their family suffer such humiliation?"
"No, no! Chen Wu, the Marquis of Tangyi, has been ill for a long time. Death will be a matter of time."
"I know about this. It is said that when Chen Wu went to Princess Guantao's mansion, he found that Princess Guantao was with a man..." The person who spoke twisted his body with a mean look on his face.
"Hahaha..." The other people laughed. (To be continued)
