So on the way in which residence from Xia Ya, Yushi Chu, occurred to listen to a number of idlers speaking:

Now that he returns to Beijing, he might go on to Yushitai.”
“That is not essentially the case. Let me inform you, I noticed Mr. Chu and a girl carrying a veiled hat enter the field of Yipinju right this moment. Who do you suppose the lady is?”
“Okay, do not be a idiot, do not inform me what number of brothers it’s important to go!”
“Hey hey hey, I stated…”
He pretended to suppress his voice to guarantee that Grasp Chu within the sedan chair might hear him.
“It is the Empress Dowager, the 2 retreated and stayed within the field for half an hour earlier than popping out, after which the 2 received into the identical carriage…”
The voice of talking grew to become farther and farther away, and Chang Sui glanced on the face of his personal adults. Da Ma chased after the supply of the sound, however didn’t see anybody.
Grasp Chu waved his hand. Shen Sheng stated: “Go and discover out the place Ah Huan has been right this moment? Who did you meet?”
Chang Sui hesitated and stated: “My lord, that is clearly intentionally designed so that you can hear.”
Grasp Chu waved his hand: “The place there isn’t any wind, there aren’t any waves. It’s best to ship somebody to research first, and the proper and improper will probably be clear.”
The individuals who adopted Chu Huan have been all servants of the Chu household. As well as, because the chief censor who supervised all of the officers, it was very straightforward to research such a small matter.
Inside two hours, the non-public chief casually discovered all the things, together with the dispute between Su Qing and Shen Mingjiao on the entrance of the Fairly Pavilion.
Seeing that his lord’s face grew to become an increasing number of severe after listening to this, Chang Sui stated cautiously: “It appears that evidently these individuals simply now have been in all probability organized by Su Wang’s mansion. Might or not it’s to impress you to cope with the East Palace?”
Grasp Chu knocked closely on the desk, “These are usually not vital, the vital factor is what Ah Huan thinks, when the younger grasp comes again, let him come to see me within the research.”
When it was virtually darkish, Chu Huan went again to the mansion. Listening to that his father was on the lookout for him, he remembered what occurred right this moment and went to the research in a superb temper.
Grasp Chu appeared on the smile on his son’s face, his eyes deepened, and he requested with an off-the-cuff smile, “You appear to be in a superb temper. Who did you meet right this moment?”
Chu Huan paused: “I met some former classmates.”
Grasp Chu did not ask any extra questions, however as an alternative stated: “I’ve already greeted Mr. Wu, Minister of the Ministry of Officers, and plan to switch you to Yushitai, what do you suppose?”
The daddy and son had agreed on this matter way back, and Chu Huan additionally agreed at the moment.
Chu Huan was silent for some time, then raised his head: “Father, I do not wish to go to Yushitai.”
Grasp Chu raised his eyebrows, and requested him with curiosity: “Oh, then the place do you wish to go?”
Chu Huan could not assist however glanced at his father. If he stated that in regular instances, his father would undoubtedly slap the desk and get indignant.
He felt a little bit uneasy, however he nonetheless stated:
“I wish to go to Chongwen Museum to offer lectures.”
Japanese Palace additionally had small imperial courts, reminiscent of Menxiafang, Fee Gengling, Servants, Left and Proper Guards, Prince Taifu, and many others.
The Chongwen Museum is the place the place the prince research. As well as, a gaggle of honorable youngsters will probably be recruited to accompany the prince to review. The trainer who teaches them is the attendant,
And these persons are naturally categorized because the Japanese Palace faction. Grasp Chu laughed calmly:
“Okay… superb… my son is absolutely bold!”
Then he violently picked up the inkstone on the desk and threw it at Chu Huan’s face.
“You might be actually good. For a lady, you’ll be able to even squander the Qiancheng household at will!”
Chu Huan subconsciously dodged sideways, and when he heard this, his thoughts turned and he realized:
“Did Princess Su ship somebody to inform you one thing? Do not take heed to her nonsense, she is simply…”
his father’s face, he did not dare to proceed in spite of everything, and as an alternative stated: “I’m harmless with the princess, I simply admire her expertise, in addition to, she is such a high-spirited particular person…”
Grasp Chu interrupted him, and stated with a sneer: “So high-spirited and upright that I do not care about women and men, and phrases lure you to affix the Japanese Palace camp.”
Seeing that Chu Huan nonetheless needed to defend himself, he waved impatiently:
“Since you do not like Yushitai, then proceed to be a county Justice of the Peace! Come again when your thoughts is cleared.”
After dismissing his son, Mr. Chu nonetheless held his breath in his coronary heart. Decide up the pen and begin to write the pocket book.
Ah! It seems that you’ve simply married into the East Palace, and the crown prince is the one prince right this moment, so he ought to flip a blind eye to some small non-public actions.
However now he has truly set his thoughts on his son, he actually thinks that the chief censor is lifeless!
So on the court docket assembly on the second day, Yushi Chu issued greater than a dozen bullets in a row to question Su Xiang for forming a celebration for personal pursuits, the Su household invaded the fields, the youthful era rode horses on the street, doted on concubines and killed their wives…
That posture was like choosing up Prime Minister Su and even the whole Su household from inside to outdoors.
Not solely the civil and navy officers, however even Prime Minister Su himself was shocked. He thought that in this time period he mustn’t have offended the lunatic Chu Yushi.
Jing and Di, who have been sitting on the high, raised their eyebrows, however he did not specific any opinions.
After the court docket dispersed, he instantly summoned his confidants and hidden guards to research the entire story. In spite of everything, though Chu Yushi is known for his uprightness, he won’t arrest somebody for no cause and impeach him, and he even pretends to show the opponent’s previous background.
If the emperor actually desires to research one thing, so long as there is a chance to comply with, there’s virtually nothing that can not be investigated.
In lower than half a day, a thick stack of data was positioned on the desks of Jing and Emperor.
Jing and Di turned a number of pages curiously, and their regular light and smiling faces grew to become condensed a little bit bit. After they completed studying all of them, he could not maintain again, and smashed a glass angrily.
As an emperor, it’s typically unavoidable to expertise sons combating for the throne. All types of wooing courtiers and forming cliques for private acquire.
However he has all the time been very pleased with this, as a result of he has solely two sons, and the eldest son is simply too good, so he would not have to be wooed in any respect, so the courtiers spontaneously strategy him.
As for the youngest son, Qi Yu has all the time been light in character, and now he’s the one prince within the palace, so there isn’t any have to win him over.
However he by no means anticipated that it was not his son who made him expertise all this, however his daughter-in-law, who had simply been married for lower than a month.
Take a look at what’s written on it, one did not concentrate. Many of the high-level officers within the court docket who weren’t very near the prince have been coaxed by her to go to them in all places.
The tactic is from the feminine household within the again home to the favored youngsters of the subsequent era. It is simply limitless.
The extra Jing and Di thought of it, the extra indignant they grew to become, however Su Qing was his daughter-in-law, so he, a father-in-law, could not name somebody over to reprimand him!
It stands to cause that this matter must be finished by the queen, however contemplating the queen’s mood, let’s overlook it.
Lastly, he requested somebody to name the prince over, and threw the stack of papers into the prince’s arms:
“What a superb spouse you married! Inform me about her, what does this leaping up and down wish to do? Is it attainable that she desires to insurgent and grow to be the queen!”
The prince was additionally stunned when he noticed the contents on the paper. However listening to what Jing and Di stated, he nonetheless subconsciously needed to defend Su Qing, however he opened his mouth however could not discover a cause to intercede.
Seeing him like this, Jing and Di felt regretful of their hearts. They thought that Su Qing was simply pondering an excessive amount of, however now it appears. This thought shouldn’t be solely an excessive amount of, it’s virtually overflowing.
“It has been virtually a month since your marriage ceremony. After the crown prince’s marriage ceremony, he ought to settle for two good women into the East Palace. I believe the youngest daughter of the Minister of Rites is fairly good, with a delicate and wise persona.”
What he stated is the reality, however the scenario between him and the queen is there, so he did not intend to place ladies in his son’s room.
However now that it’s like this, if he would not care anymore, he’s afraid that Qi Yu will probably be eaten to demise by Su Qing immediately.
The prince rapidly knelt down and shook his head to precise his refusal:
“Father, Ah Qing did one thing improper, I’ll punish her, however I promised her that she wouldn’t marry one other girl.”
Seeing him kneeling straight, his eyes are light however agency.
Seeing this, Jing and Di instantly considered their eldest son who died younger, and it was the identical. At any time when they selected one factor, they needed to go all the way in which to the darkish.
He knew that it was ineffective to steer him any additional, so he made the prince kneel for an hour with a deep voice, then he flung his sleeves and left with out trying again.
The prince lowered his eyes, he knew what Su Qing did was improper, however what can he do? He promised Su Qing that it doesn’t matter what she desires to do sooner or later? He’ll help.
…
It wasn’t till it was virtually darkish that the prince dragged his kneeling numb legs again to the East Palace.
At this second, the primary room was lit, and Su Qing was sitting on the desk with a delicate smile ready for him to eat. Seeing this scene, the prince swallowed the phrases that got here to his lips.
Su Qing smiled and stepped ahead to assist him take off his gown, as regular, she cared if all the things was wonderful when he was out right this moment, and when the preparation was virtually finished, she took the prince’s hand and stated with a smile:
“I heard that the Chongwen Museum is recruiting servants, what do you consider Chu Yushi’s son Chu Huan?”
The prince paused along with his fingers, after which requested her with a smile: “Chu Huan continues to be too younger, I am afraid it is inappropriate to be a servant! Why do you consider him?”
Su Qing did not discover his abnormality, primarily as a result of it occurred too rapidly, and she or he stayed within the East Palace all day lengthy.
“There’s nothing inappropriate about this. He received the primary prize. And his father is Chu Yushi. On this method, Chu Yushi has been labeled as our East Palace.”
