Yuan Rui didn't try to hold her back, and there was a hint of gentle and unnoticed worry in his expression.
After sending Wen Yao home in person, Yuan Rui returned home. The tenderness on her face suddenly turned cold. Princess Jing sighed: "If you have something to say, please tell me. Maybe it's a misunderstanding. He is your father after all!"
Yuan Rui nodded, "I know, mother, don't worry, I'm measured."
It turned out that Wen Yao told Yuan Rui to pay more attention to Yuan Jingzhou. Yuan Rui didn't really care, but he took his actions very seriously and sent two secret guards to keep a close eye on him. After all, Wen Yao's words were never without meaning.
This staring revealed a problem.
Just before Yuan Rui and his family entered the palace for the banquet, Yuan Jingzhou suddenly had a stomachache and asked them to leave first.
Yuan Rui felt uneasy and pretended to leave. As expected, Yuan Jingzhou was up to something. He actually found a few letters from the study between King Jing and some generals, and put them in his arms, not knowing who he wanted to give them to.
It's just that Yuan Jingzhou calculated well, but unfortunately, he ignored Wen Yao. Wen Yao had already seen his true face. When he opened the door, he saw Yuan Rui and Princess Xue, and was dumbfounded for a moment.
So Princess Xue did not attend the palace banquet this time, leaving Yuan Rui and King Lao Jing to take charge of the overall situation, and also missed Han Linyuan's death.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Princess Xue wouldn't have believed her eyes. Her biological son, who was raised by herself, actually stole important letters from the family?
Yuan Jingzhou was not afraid of his father, King Jing, but he was afraid of his own mother, Princess Xue. While his father was soft-hearted, this mother was really cruel and would kill without blinking an eye.
It is said that a loving mother often loses her son, but this does not exist with Princess Xue. She is not a loving mother at all. She dislikes boys who are submissive and have no masculinity at all.
Yuan Jingzhou was weak and liked to study since he was a child. This was not Princess Xue's liking at all. She had trained him since he was a child. Unfortunately, it backfired. Instead, the training made him more timid and cowardly, not as masculine and powerful as she wanted.
Coupled with the subsequent disobedience in the marriage, and the fact that Princess Jing was pregnant with a child and wanted to take a concubine, the relationship between mother and son was not only hot and cold, but also very cold and rigid.
So when Yuan Jingzhou saw his mother standing in front of him, he was so frightened that he almost peed his pants and knelt down: "Mother, mother, you haven't left yet?"
Princess Xue was so angry when she saw his cowardly look. Now that he has done it, he must dare to do it. It is really difficult to become a great person!
"What did you get? Give it to me!"
Princess Xue stretched out her hand, and Yuan Jingzhou obediently handed it over. Her heart was filled with despair. She really had no desire to live at all.
If it hadn't been for Han Linyuan's suicide, Princess Xue would have had no time to take care of him and would have killed her family out of justice.
Things outside were finally settled, and it was time for Yuan Rui to face things at home. He didn't want to enter the house without a comfortable environment.
Yuan Jingzhou had been locked up in the firewood shed for the past few days. His initial fear and guilty conscience gradually turned into anger and resentment, and his whole person was full of hostility. When Yuan Rui saw him again, he almost didn't recognize him.
With such sinister and vicious eyes, is this his father?
"Did you still remember to see if your father was dead? You are a rebellious and unfilial son, what is the use of having you?"
Yuan Rui said coldly: "Father, you'd better tell your grandparents these words."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Jingzhou's momentum dropped significantly, as if he had encountered a nemesis.
Yuan Rui sneered in his heart, it was really sad and hateful. Is this his biological father?
The whole family was here, but Princess Jing didn't want to worry her mother-in-law family, so the Liang family didn't come, so they were placed alone in a courtyard.
Yuanhua even wanted to kill her relatives for justice. Is this something done by her own father?
Yuan Jingzhou looked like a condemned prisoner on his way to the execution ground, his head lowered and he did not dare to look into anyone's eyes.
Princess Jing is the most heartbroken and saddened. Husband and wife are one, and her husband wants to harm her natal family. Even now, she still can't believe that Yuan Jingzhou would be so cruel.
Even if she is not the virtuous wife he wants, after so many years, she has changed her unruly and domineering personality and become gentle and mean-spirited. How come she still can't get a serious look from him?
Old King Jing was silent and closed his eyes. He had the greatest responsibility for his son to develop like this.
Princess Xue spoke first: "Kneel down!"
Plop!
Yuan Jingzhou didn't dare not to kneel down, so he knelt straight on the ground: "Mother."
"Don't call me, I have never given birth to a son who is as spoiled as you."
Yuan Jingzhou raised his head, his eyes were blood red, and he smiled: "Yes, you have looked down on me since I was a child. I am not good at martial arts. You don't smile every day. I am embarrassing you. I am not worthy of you."
Son, that’s it!”
Old King Jing sighed and said: "Jingzhou, don't say that. Your mother also loves you. She just wants you to follow the path of a military general. If you can't do it, she is also disappointed. She didn't force you to do it."
Ah, don't talk about your mother like that."
Yuan Jingzhou broke the jar and yelled: "That's enough, father, a man is upright and upright as the head of the family. Look at you, your mother is right in everything. She is always around her, except
Mother, do you have a son in your heart? Do you have a family like this?
I have never seen such a worthless man like you, and I don’t want to be like you, marry a strong wife and be a useless man."
King Lao Jing: "..."
Damn it, this hapless son should not have opened his mouth.
"I love your mother, not fear her. What do you know? Who stipulated that a man should have three wives and four concubines to show off his power at home?
Okay, let’s not talk about this. Everyone’s understanding of love is different. Dad can’t talk to you about anything. Let’s just talk about this incident. What do you want to do by stealing those letters? "
Yuan Jingzhou was still dissatisfied: "How can I steal something when I take something from my own home? In your hearts, you don't treat me as a family member. No one will listen to my words, and no one will care about my thoughts...
…”
"Shut up, mother!"
Princess Xue grabbed the teacup and hit him on the head with a bloody wound. She was so strong that the blow caused blood. King Jing wanted to get up and look at him, but Princess Xue glared at him. Finally, he sighed and sat back down.
"It's stealing if you don't ask for it. You still call yourself a scholar, but the scholar teaches you how to steal by cocks and dogs? You want to suffer your own suffering, but you should take an upright path. I can respect you even if you have some achievements.
For most of your life, have you learned how to steal people's things, talk back to your parents, and steal from others? This is your future!"
Yuan Jingzhou clenched his fists tightly and said nothing. Anyway, everything he said was wrong.
Princess Jing followed him and knelt down to beg for mercy: "Father, mother, please stop being angry. My daughter-in-law is also at fault. It's all my fault that she didn't persuade her good husband..."
"Go away, you don't have to pretend to be a good person. You are the one who does it every time. I am always wrong in everything.
Mrs. Liang, you are also a treacherous and vicious villain. Don’t think that I can’t see your tricks. You stepped on me to make your parents like you and protect you. I have always been the good-for-nothing they looked down on.
