Chapter 147

Since ancient times, once there are any good stories about the emperor and his ministers, they will be widely known and spread in history, such as Jie Zitui cutting his flesh to serve the emperor, and Tang Taizong seeing Wei Zheng as a mirror.

Emperor Yuanyou braved the severe cold to send Chen Tingjian out of the palace and gave him a cloak. All the officials in Capital City knew about it the next day.Knowing that the emperor treats Chen Tingjian so kindly, the fear of the Chief-of-Staff grows deeper.

Chen Jingzong would never tell Hua Yang about his old man's life, and Hua Yang has not been out recently until Nan Kang long princess brought her daughter here as a guest.

The last time Hua Yang saw Nan Kang was at the end of May when he went to the imperial mausoleum to pay homage to his father for a year. At that time, Nan Kang was crying but neither of them spoke.

Later, my aunt often brought news of Nankang, but it was nothing more than Nan Kang living in seclusion and getting haggard day by day.

With a rebellious elder brother, Hua Yang understands Nankang's difficulties, but Nan Kang has never treated her well, and it is impossible for Hua Yang to rush to greet her like her aunt.

But Hua Yang is not a narrow-minded person. Today Nan Kang came to the door for the first time, and Hua Yang also entertained him politely.

In Xinuang Pavilion, the sun shines through the glazed windows to illuminate most of the room, and all kinds of famous potted flowers and plants bloom quietly, competing for splendor like a spring day.

In such a season, only Hua Yang with a noble status can afford to raise these flowers that are more delicate than human beings.

After all, Nan Kang was also one of the only two daughters of the late emperor. The days before were also full of flowers, but only since last year did he learn to behave with his tail between his legs.

Nan Kang envied the magnificence of Hua Yang, but he would not be surprised by the eye-opening.

Her five-year-old daughter is different from Princess Jing. She was born in Jing'an Hou Mansion, and she was not treated as well as her mother when she was a child. Last year, the entire Hou Mansion was shrouded in dark clouds.A heart that was loyally dug out and dedicated to the empress dowager and the young emperor in the palace, who dared to spend extravagantly on food and clothing, let alone take care of flowers and grass.

At this time, stepping into the warm pavilion of my aunt's house, compared with the bleak winter outside, He Jing seemed to have stepped into a fairyland on earth.

She couldn't hide her liking.

Hua Yang: ...

She felt that the little girl looked a little pitiful.

He Jing is the first grandchild of his father, and he was bestowed the title of "Princess Hejing" by his father when he just turned one year old. He Jing and Jing, his father must have hoped that this child would grow upTo become a gentle and quiet girl, don't learn from Nan Kang's self-willedness, self-willedness, comparison and jealousy.

After being amazed by the scenery inside the warm pavilion, He Jing stood beside her mother, looking timidly at that noble and unparalleled aunt.

Most of the children's eyes are clear and pure, He Jing is beautiful, looking at her so restrainedly, it is hard for Hua Yang not to soften his heart.

She smiled at the little girl and stretched out her hand: "It's been a while since I saw He Jing, come and sit on the couch."

He Jing looked at her mother.

Nan Kang looked away, pushed his daughter with one hand, and secretly wiped his tears with the other.

Hua Yang pretended not to notice, and waited for the nanny brought by Nan Kang to help Hejing take off her shoes. Hua Yang touched the little girl's face, and then touched the soft little hands. They were all warm, so she let her go.Heart, softly coaxing and eating cakes quietly.

Nan Kang calmed down and sat opposite her.

Hua Yang asked, "Why didn't you bring Brother Dun over?"

Nan Kang didn't dare to look directly into her eyes, and lowered his eyes and said, "I've got a cold, and I'm getting better soon, but I still have a little cough, so I didn't bring it out."

Hua Yang nodded, and glanced at Nan Kang: "I've lost so much weight, why don't I think about eating or drinking because of the death of my father?"

Nan Kang clutched the handkerchief awkwardly.

Hua Yang: "Or, are you afraid that the emperor will anger you because of King Yu?"

Nan Kang's jaw almost touched his chest.

Hua Yang: "Don't worry, as long as you do your duty as your long princess and don't worry about anything you shouldn't, the emperor won't be able to tolerate you."

Nan Kang wanted to cry again.

The mother knew that the master was here to confide in her thoughts, so she smiled and carried the little princess to the south window to enjoy the flowers.

Hua Yang watched He Jing walk away, and then continued to look at Nan Kang.

Nan Kang cried softly: "I know that the emperor is lenient and will not anger me, but people outside are bullying me, they just mock me, those five or six-year-old children have also learned from adults.I dare to ridicule He Jing when I see the wind and the wind. I can bear it myself, but I can't stand the children being wronged. That's why I came to my sister with the cheek.The outside stomps us too hard."

Hua Yang: "I am the eldest princess, and you are also the eldest princess. You can also have the majesty I can have. Who dares to disrespect you and show off your previous domineering."

Nan Kang was aggrieved: "I don't have the confidence, my father backed me up..."

Hua Yang: "My mother's queen is also your mother's queen, and my younger brother is also your younger brother. You are really being bullied, and they won't stand by. Don't let yourself cause trouble."

Nan Kang's tears stopped, and he looked at Hua Yang in disbelief.

Hua Yang: "You are stupid, you refused to admit it before. I am a long princess just like you, and I have to go to the palace to ask my mother and younger brother to support me when I encounter problems. If you come to me, it is better to go to the palace to honor your mother and younger brother to please your younger brother.".”

Nan Kang said awkwardly: "The emperor has never liked me, the queen mother, I am afraid of her."

Even Hua Yang would change from a proud little phoenix to a well-behaved bunny in front of Empress Dowager Qi. A concubine princess in Nan Kang is not afraid of Empress Dowager Qi.

Hua Yang: "I've already pointed the way for you, it's up to you whether you listen to me or not, but I'm the one who hates trouble the most, so don't expect to come to me and cry when something happens to you in the future, I will enter the palace to intercede for you."

Nan Kang was discouraged and helpless.

But Hua Yang was willing to see her, and was willing to say these things to her, and he didn't take the opportunity to insult her with cynicism, and Nan Kang was very content.

She knew very well that if her and Hua Yang's identities were switched, she would definitely have another face.

So Nan Kang was finally convinced, convinced why his father doted on Hua Yang more.

In the past, she was carefree and fearless, but now that her father is gone, that Nan Kang princess is gone. From now on, she is just Nan Kang long princess, the mother of two children.

When you come over as a guest, it is not enough to just ask someone to do something. The most important thing is to have a good relationship in the long run.

Nan Kang began to gossip, including things in the Jing'an Hou's mansion. For example, the old Hou was still polite to her. Meng Yanqing tried to steal people several times, but was scolded and beaten by the old Hou.It's really virtuous, but the second sister-in-law mocked her openly and secretly, including how He Jing got angry with her cousin. Brother Dun is only two years old and doesn't understand anything, so it's okay for the time being.

Hua Yang quite likes to listen to these parents' gossip, which doesn't involve her emotions, and is fresh and interesting.

And she believed that when Nan Kang recovered his spirit after turning the corner, Meng Yanqing and his second sister-in-law would not be able to beat Nankang.

After talking about his family's troubles, Nan Kang flattered Hua Yang again, envied the dignity of Hua Yang's direct relative, the long princess, and envied Hua Yang's good marriage.

Nan Kang was finally a little smarter, he didn't dare to praise Chen Jingzong, fearing that Hua Yang would turn over his old account, he only wanted to praise Huayang's father-in-law, Chen Tingjian.

Thus, Hua Yang knew about his younger brother sending his father-in-law out of the palace.

Nan Kang used to always fight against Huayang, but now he is very eloquent when trying to please Huayang, making Hua Yang smile from time to time.

Hua Yang was in a good mood, so he left Nan Kang's mother and daughter to eat at the mansion at noon.

She also gave He Jing a jade bracelet.

After the couple left, Hua Yang tidied up and lay down on the bed to rest for a while.

Not feeling sleepy for the time being, Hua Yang thought about his previous life.

Nan Kang never came to look for her in his previous life, probably from the first month of the second year of Yuanyou, Nan Kang suddenly became active and often went to the palace to serve his mother.Hua Yang wondered why Nan Kang had changed his temper, so her aunt came to explain her doubts. It turned out that it was the aunt who could not see Nankang's aggrieved appearance, and pointed out a bright way for her.

Hua Yang was purely curious: "She knows how to please the queen mother, why doesn't she come to please me?"

Even if it's a show of favor, Nan Kang shouldn't ignore her side.

The aunt was overjoyed: "She is stupid, and I reminded her to please you. Guess what she said? She said that you are a lonely widow, and you are either jealous or sad when you see her son and daughter. She will only make things difficult for you when she comes over.", you will dislike her even more if she gets blocked!"

Thinking of this, Hua Yang was amused by Nan Kang's cleverness again.

In his previous life, he was afraid that she would be jealous, but in this life, Chen Jingzong is fine, so Nan Kang is not afraid that she will be jealous.

In the evening, Chen Jingzong came back.

Because now he can return home two quarters of an hour earlier, Hua Yang is also willing to wait for him to have dinner together.

"Nan Kang came to see me today." After eating for a while, Hua Yang casually mentioned it.

Chen Jingzong looked up at her, confused: "Who is Nan Kang?"

Hua Yang raised his eyebrows: "Why are you pretending to be stupid, the emperor has two daughters, can you not recognize them?"

Chen Jingzong: "She, no one around me talks about her, how can I always remember her title."

Hua Yang: "Should we be able to meet her face now?"

Chen Jingzong: "I'm sorry, I forgot what it looks like."

Hua Yang: "It's quite white."

Chen Jingzong: ...

He lowered his eyes and stared fiercely at her skirt: "I only care about your whiteness, no matter how white others are, I don't bother to look at it."

Hua Yang glared at him.

Chen Jingzong picked up a piece of meat and continued to stare at her while chewing.

Hua Yang raised his face: "If you continue to do this, I will eat first by myself in the future, and I will never wait for you again."

Only then did Chen Jingzong look away.

Hua Yang: "She chatted with me a lot, and she also mentioned the matter of the emperor giving father a cloak. Why didn't you tell me about such a beautiful talk between monarchs and ministers?"

Chen Jingzong: "Others say it's normal, let me tell you, wouldn't it be thick-skinned and boasting about your family?"

Hua Yang: "You and I are husband and wife, your father is also my father, why should we share between our own family and our family?"

Chen Jingzong: "Then your younger brother is also my younger brother. Is it worth mentioning that your family sent your own family out?"

Hua Yang: "You are ashamed."

Chen Jingzong stared: "Why should I be ashamed?"

Hua Yang: "My younger brother knows that he loves his father too late and missed dinner, which is not good for his health. You have never persuaded him."

Chen Jingzong: "I come back so late every day, not much earlier than him, why don't I see anyone who loves me?"

Hua Yang: "How old are you, and how old is your father?"

Chen Jingzong: "Okay, just wait, I will also give you a good father-son story."

On the morning of October 23rd, the sky was still dark, but all civil and military officials were standing in front of the Huangji Palace.

The atmosphere was solemn, until the son-in-law came striding forward in a black leather cloak, walked majestically through the civil and military officials, walked to the front, and then untied the cloak in front of everyone, meeting the old man's incomprehensible gaze, rather rudely put the big cloak on the old man.

Chen Tingjian scolded while avoiding, the official hat on his head was crooked: "Nonsense! Get back!"

Chen Jingzong chased the old man to tie the belt: "You are getting old, you can't help the cold, put it on quickly."

Chen Tingjian just wanted to kick his son hard. He came wearing a cloak, including several other elder ministers. Because he was about to enter the palace, he untied the cloak and handed it to the eunuchs next to him. Now his son insisted on giving it to the eunuchs.He put it on, isn't it nonsense?

Chen Bozong and Chen Xiaozong finally rushed over and dragged Yihua away by each arm.

Not long after, the door of Huangji Hall opened, a eunuch came over, and Xuan Baiguan entered the hall.

After all the officials entered the hall and stood up, Emperor Yuanyou entered the hall from the front side door and sat on the dragon chair. Emperor Yuanyou looked down and found that Pavilion Elder Chen was still arranging his clothes quietly with anger on his face, while some officials were laughing, the kind that can't be suppressed.

Emperor Yuanyou asked: "Just now I heard a commotion outside the hall, what happened?"

Everyone looked at Chen Tingjian, Chen Jingzong and his son.

Chen Tingjian pursed his lips, and just about to explain, Chen Jingzong came out first and complained: "My Majesty, yesterday the long princess heard the good story about the emperor and minister that you sent the Chief-of-Staff out of the palace, and she disliked the minister at the dinner table, saying that the ministerIn vain to be a son of man, it would be better for the emperor to understand the hard work of the Chief-of-Staff, just now the minister followed the example of the emperor and lent his cloak to the Chief-of-Staff, but he didn't appreciate it, instead he reprimanded the minister."

Chen Tingjian bowed to the dragon chair, and said: "The minister is about to enter the palace, what do you want his cloak for? Shuzi is stubborn, the emperor doesn't care, let's discuss the matter."

Emperor Yuanyou: ...

Chen Tingjian and Chen Jingzong's father and son are in the same boat, everyone in the capital knows it, and Emperor Yuanyou has personally heard Chen Jingzong's various complaints and criticisms against the old man.

My sister blamed Chen Jingzong for being unfilial in private, can Chen Jingzong be convinced?Forcibly borrowing the old man's cloak is more like deliberately trying to annoy the old man again.

The elder sister is also true. She treats the son-in-law well for a while, gives off the horse and celebrates her birthday, and picks on the son-in-law's faults for a while...

Well, the son-in-law must have made my sister angry again recently, so my sister treated him like this!
