I should have expected that Mr. Gu Shan would do something like this.
Xie Mingxi couldn't laugh or cry: "Master, you are no longer young. How can you afford to run back and forth every day..."
Gu Shanchang responded calmly and calmly: "I leave the palace every two days, and I happen to go back with A Luo. Why can't I help it?"
Then, he deliberately frowned: "What? Do you think Master is old and useless? Don't you want me to go to Lianchi Academy to become a master?"
Yes, it seems that I can’t be persuaded anymore.
Xie Mingxi smiled helplessly and said: "How could I think so? Master is in his prime, how can he be old and useless? With Master's talent and learning, it is more than enough to be a master in Lianchi Academy. That's all, Master, you can go if you want!"
That's pretty much it.
Gu Shanchang looked like a cunning child and laughed quite contentedly.
The happiest person is undoubtedly A Luo.
A Luo was overjoyed and grabbed Gu Shanchang's hand: "Grandma, do you really want to go to the academy to become a master in the future? This is really great!"
Gu Shanchang raised the corners of his mouth and laughed.
Even Xie Mingxi couldn't do anything to Commander Gu. Sheng Hong simply stopped trying to persuade him and said with a smile: "I'll have to trouble Commander Gu more in the future and teach A Luo well."
Gu Shanchang raised his eyebrows and smiled: "A'luo is smart and alert, can draw inferences from one instance and has a photographic memory. She is also diligent and hardworking, and can only be given a little guidance. She is much better than the emperor back then."
Sheng Hong: "..."
Sheng Hong's face collapsed in an exaggerated way on purpose, making Xie Mingxi and A Luo laugh out loud.
Xie Zijin looked at his winking uncle and thought to himself. Her father always said that her aunt and uncle were ruthless. She stayed in the palace for a few days, and her aunt treated her kindly and kindly, and her uncle was even more playful and funny. Where could she be ruthless?
After she returns to Xie's Mansion in a few days, she must tell her father that her aunt and uncle are both fine.
…
Chen Mansion.
It was getting late, and the wind lantern at the gate of Chen Mansion had been hung up. The wind lantern was blown by the wind, and the slightly dim and soft light also swayed.
An angry shout came from Chen's house: "Chen Zhan! Kneel down!"
Chen Shangshu, who had been holding back his anger for most of the day, had a face as dark as a cloud, so dark it could drip water. The sparks in his eyes almost turned into flames and spurted out, and he shouted angrily again.
"Kneel down!"
Even though Chen Zhan had been mentally prepared, he was still frightened by his father's anger at this moment. He knelt down with a plop: "Father, don't be upset, please listen to my son's explanation..."
What a fucking explanation!
Chen Shangshu picked up the wooden stick that he had prepared long ago, raised it high, and landed heavily on Chen Zhan's body without ceremony.
There was a muffled sound, followed by a scream.
Mrs. Chen, who was standing aside, could not withstand such a scene. Tears suddenly fell from her eyes: "Master, if you have anything to say, just talk to your son. Why are you so cruel? What should you do if your son's body is damaged?"
Several Chen family members on the side were also frightened and their faces turned pale.
Qin Sihun's pretty face also turned pale.
Er Bao'er and Third Bao'er might not come out, but Chen Xiaobao'er was the only one standing next to his mother. Sensing that his mother's body was shaking non-stop, Chen Xiaobao'er ignored his fear and quickly reached out to hold his mother's arm and whispered.
Said: "Mother!"
Qin Sihun gritted her teeth and stood firm with her son's help.
She and Chen Zhan had a deep love for each other, and what Chen Zhan did was not hidden from him. When he was writing the memorial last night, she was the one who polished it.
My father-in-law was kept in the dark, and the court was caught off guard today. No wonder he became furious and took action against the family.
Chen Shangshu hit him three times with a stick.
Chen Zhan didn't have the majestic and unyielding character of a man, and he kept screaming pitifully, which made people feel pity and couldn't bear to witness it.
When Chen Shangshu saw his son like this, the unspeakable anger in his heart finally subsided a little. He couldn't hit him with the fourth stick anymore.
Mrs. Chen stepped forward crying and took Chen Shangshu's arm: "Master, please stop fighting. A Zhan must have realized his mistake."
Chen Zhan's brothers also bravely stepped forward to persuade him.
Chen Shangshu half pushed and half let go, snorted coldly, and went to the study room first.
Qin Sihun stepped forward with red eyes, helped up her husband who was crying in pain, and returned to the house. The imperial doctor rewarded by the emperor really came in handy, and he treated Chen Zhan's injuries skillfully and applied medicine.
Qin Si Xun's tears were streaming down her face.
Chen Zhan calmed down and winked at his wife: "Actually, most of what I just did was just pretending. My father is old and he doesn't have the strength to hit people..."
Before he finished speaking, a familiar sneer sounded at the door.
Chen Zhan was startled and thought something was wrong. When he raised his head, he saw Chen Shangshu standing at the door with a dark face: "It's just three sticks, but they haven't hurt the muscles and bones. Come here, get the wooden sticks. I want to teach the traitor a lesson today."
"
Chen Zhan: "..."
…
Compared to Chen Zhan, Zhao Qi is much luckier.
Mr. Zhao Ge loved his youngest son the most. He would not even beat him, but would not even scold him.
Furthermore, Chen Zhan is the eldest son of Chen Shangshu, so he has high hopes. Chen Shangshu inevitably has high expectations. As for Zhao Qi, he has four brothers, all of whom were Jinshi. Each one is more stable and capable than the last. Zhao Qi is naughty and cute.
It’s best if your younger son has a lot of potential, and it’s okay if he doesn’t have a lot of potential.
For Mr. Zhao Ge, Zhao Qi was already much better than he expected.
Zhao Ge's veteran Zhao Qi called him into the study and asked in a deep voice: "Zhao Qi, tell me the truth. Did the emperor have a plan to cut down the vassal vassal? When did you and Chen Zhan and Lu Chi know about this?
?”
Zhao Qi replied calmly: "The Emperor has had this plan since he ascended the throne. We have also known the Emperor's ambitions for a long time."
"I know my father is worried."
"It's just that I don't need to elaborate on the many hidden dangers of the vassal territory. My father can also think of it. The emperor is young and promising, and he is determined to create a prosperous and prosperous Qi Dynasty. It is inevitable to think about peace at home and then fight against the outside world. Why don't father just follow the trend?
, to assist the emperor in completing the major task of reducing the vassal vassal?"
Mr. Zhao Ge stretched his hand to stroke his beard and frowned. After a long time, he sighed: "You think of this matter too simply."
"In the twenty years since the late emperor reigned, how could he not have the idea of reducing the vassal state? How could he allow others to sleep soundly beside his bed? Government orders could not reach the vassal territory. A quarter of Daqi's states and counties were occupied by the vassal kings. As the emperor,
, it is normal to have the intention to reduce the vassal state."
"It's just that this matter is never easy."
"The vassal kings have been passed down for generations and have managed the vassal land into their own territory. To cut off the vassal is to cut off their flesh and let out their blood. I am afraid that they will have rebellious intentions. When the time comes, Daqi will fall into civil strife...
…”
"The emperor has been mentally prepared for this matter." Zhao Qi took over the words with a firm gaze: "Even if there is civil strife, the reduction of the vassal clan must be done!"
"Father, you should think carefully about which side you should stand on!"
