Chen Xiaobaoer was rarely shy and shy. The second and third treasures were all naughty, so he immediately chased after him with a wide grin. He also yelled: "Big brother, big brother, why are you blushing?"
"Eldest brother definitely wants to be Uncle Zhao's son-in-law."
Zhao Qi: "..."
Lu Chi couldn't help laughing and teased Chen Zhan with a smile: "With such three lively and lovable sons, you won't have to worry about being lonely."
Chen Zhan said with a helpless smile: "Don't mention it. If you are naughty, you can go to heaven. I must have owed them three debts in my previous life, and they are reincarnated as my sons in this life to collect debts."
Isn't that right? Children are all debt collectors, and as parents, we all have endless worries.
Zhao Qi and Lu Chi sighed together.
Chen Zhan moved his body slightly and touched the injured area. He grinned in pain and sucked in cold air. It can be seen that Chen Shangshu's attack was quite serious this time.
Zhao Qi sighed a few times: "Are you really your father's biological son? I have grown up so big, but my father has never lifted a finger. Why do you always get beaten!"
This sentence can be regarded as hitting Chen Zhan's sore spot.
Chen Zhan's face was full of sadness, and there were tears in his eyes: "Maybe this is the depth of love and responsibility!"
Chen Zhan was used to playing tricks, but he was beaten so hard that his buttocks and back were in unbearable pain. Fortunately, he was still in the mood to laugh at himself.
Lu Chi couldn't help but laugh and sigh: "Okay, you have been beaten like this, why are you so talkative? Your Majesty asked us to bring you medicine today and let you rest for a few days. We will accompany you when you are healed.
drive."
Lu Chi didn't even ask why Chen Zhan was beaten, and could only express his relief.
Zhao Qi didn't ask any more questions.
Chen Zhan, who usually talks the most, did not mention the reason or experience of being beaten this time.
All three of them knew it tacitly.
…
After Lu Chi and Zhao Qi left, Chen Zhan stopped his smile and let out a long sigh.
Qin Sihun came in with a bottle of wound medicine and said softly: "This is the medicine specially ordered by the emperor to be prepared by the hospital. I will apply some for you, and your injury will heal faster."
Chen Zhan hummed.
Qin Sihun gently took off her husband's clothes, revealing his back which was covered with red marks. Chen Shangshu was so angry that he took action, and Chen Zhan received a strong stick this time.
Qin Sihun shed tears quietly while applying medicine to Chen Zhan.
Cool tears fell on Chen Zhan's back.
Chen Zhan felt quite unhappy and comforted Qin Sihun in a low voice: "My father has this temper, it will be fine if he gets through this meal."
Qin Sihun choked up and said: "My father-in-law was too harsh. It was the emperor's idea to change the law. You didn't know anything about it beforehand. My father-in-law was dissatisfied and did not dare to accuse the emperor. Instead, he poured all his anger on you.
coming."
Chen Zhan became more and more helpless: "Who made me his biological son! If you don't beat me, who will beat me? That's all, just get used to it."
Qin Sihun finished applying the medicine, put the quilt on Chen Zhan's back, and then leaned over: "Did you say anything to my father-in-law to anger him?"
Usually, father-in-law's actions were mostly for show. This time, he was obviously so angry that he took the severe action.
Chen Zhan turned his head, looked at Qin Sihun for a moment, and then whispered after a while: "Don't ask."
Qin Sihun was so smart and insightful that she had already figured it out. After a long silence, she said softly: "No matter what you decide to do, we husband and wife are of the same mind and will advance and retreat together."
Chen Zhan's eyes felt a little hot, and he reached out to hold Qin Sihun's hand: "Okay."
…
In the Jiaofang Hall, the emperor and the empress sat opposite each other, having a small drink.
Xie Mingxi was in a relaxed mood, holding a delicate and small wine glass in her hand.
Sheng Hong was in a happy mood because the law was successfully promulgated. He smiled and toasted to Xie Mingxi: "Mingxi, let's drink this cup together."
Xie Mingxi nodded happily, and touched Sheng Hong's wine glasses lightly, making a crisp and sweet sound. Then, they drank the wine in one gulp.
"Amend the law so that women can establish female households. This matter is a touchstone." Sheng Hong raised his thick eyebrows and smiled slowly: "There are no fools in the court. I don't know how many people are secretly trying to figure out my true intentions."
Xie Mingxi smiled faintly and took over the conversation: "How many people are willing to follow you and support you in making A Luo the crown prince? We will know soon."
Come to think of it, there aren't many people like this.
Sheng Hong is quite confident: "I dare not tell others, but Lu Chi, Zhao Qi and Chen Zhan will definitely support me wholeheartedly."
Xie Mingxi smiled and teased: "You abducted the three of them onto the pirate ship a long time ago, and they have followed you to the center of the lake. Even with the huge waves, they can't get off the ship now."
Sheng Hong smiled leisurely and contentedly: "It shows that I have a lot of foresight."
The couple were chatting and laughing, and naturally mentioned Chen Zhan.
"Old Lu Ge is heavy-handed and scheming. He won't do anything to Lu Chi until the matter is clear. Mr. Zhao Ge loves his youngest son the most and is reluctant to do anything to Zhao Qi. But Chen Shangshu is different." Xie Mingxi looked slightly cold: "At this time,
Chen Zhan was beaten until he could not stay. It can be seen that Chen Shangshu was quite dissatisfied with the emperor's actions."
Sheng Hong's eyes flashed and he said calmly: "Chen Shangshu is also a veteran of three dynasties. Now he is the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. He has a high status among civil servants, second only to the five cabinet elders. If he expressed his position like this, he may have other actions next.
.”
Xie Mingxi said suddenly: "You and I will wait and see what superb methods Chen Shangshu and others have."
…
Chen Zhan recuperated for half a month before he barely recovered and was summoned to the palace to see him.
Sheng Hong ordered all the chamberlains to step back, and then personally stepped forward to help Chen Zhan up, sighing: "I'm sorry for causing you to suffer so much."
Chen Zhan felt hot in his heart.
The two were classmates and had a deep friendship. At first, he followed him to Shu because of his classmates. Now Sheng Honggui is the emperor, and he is a minister, and the king and his ministers get along well with each other. From the perspective of a minister, he is also willing to follow a
A broad-minded, shrewd and capable emperor.
"Your Majesty's words make me ashamed." Chen Zhan said sternly: "Wei Chen's family affairs are really not worth mentioning. Wei Chen is willing to follow the emperor and ride for him, even if he fights to the death!"
Sheng Hong's heart also felt hot and agitated, and it was difficult to calm down for a long time.
He stared at Chen Zhan, who looked back calmly.
After a moment, Sheng Hong raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Okay! I have written down everything you said today."
Eunuch Wei's voice sounded outside the door: "Your Majesty, Lu Hanlin and Zhao Shuling have come together to ask for an audience."
Sheng Hong calmed down and said, "Let them come in."
Soon, Lu Chi and Zhao Qi stepped in together.
Zhao Qi opened his mouth and said: "Why did Chen Yushi come to express his loyalty alone? This kind of sycophantic behavior is unacceptable! Why should he take me with him?"
Lu Chi also smiled and said: "Although I am late, fortunately I am not too late today."
Seeing the calm and bright smiling faces of the three people, Sheng Hong felt happy and moved in his heart, and the warm liquid in his eyes was ready to move. However, at this moment, all words seemed redundant.
