Chapter 32 You, please be more careful!
Because Yun Shu was mysterious and refused to tell him the answer directly, after school that day, Yun Chuhuan did not follow Yun Shu to Fengyang Palace to eat and drink like he did in the past.
Instead, he rushed back to Yaohua Palace with the Beijing Weekly in his pocket.
"Mother Concubine! Mother Concubine!"
Although no one was seen, the sound of shouting and clamoring could be heard throughout the hall.
Emperor Xuanwu, who had been lying on Concubine Liu's lap with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes, and his words revealed a bit of dissatisfaction at being disturbed:
"Why is this kid becoming more and more unstable?"
"Huan'er is only eight years old. He is still a child. What's wrong with being lively and cute?"
The only precious thing was mentioned by others, and Concubine Liu defended it with dissatisfaction:
"Does Your Majesty want Huan'er to be like those old men in the court at such a young age? Then do you want me to ask someone to find some fake beards for Huan'er to put on?"
"The more you say it, the more outrageous it becomes."
Emperor Xuanwu sat up helplessly:
"I just said one sentence to him."
"Your Majesty has so many children, of course he doesn't care.
But I am different. I only have Huan'er as my child, so I must naturally pamper and protect him!"
Concubine Liu snorted softly.
She grew up in a wealthy family. Before she got married, she was pampered by her family. After she entered the palace, she was pampered by the emperor.
Although she is nearly thirty years old now, she still looks like a girl in her twenties, with beautiful features, affectionate eyes, and a noble temperament. She is like a graceful peony in full bloom, making it impossible to take your eyes off her.
Even if she occasionally showed a bit of temper, Emperor Xuanwu was willing to tolerate it.
Just like at this moment, she stopped massaging Emperor Xuanwu's head without hesitation and stood up to catch the little bastard running towards her.
Emperor Xuanwu just sat on the couch and watched helplessly.
"Mother concubine!"
"Run slower!"
Worried that he would accidentally fall if he ran too fast, Concubine Liu complained without any reprimand:
"You're running so fast, is there someone chasing you?"
"I want to see my mother soon!"
Yun Chuhuan finally ran into the palace at this time. After he skillfully acted coquettishly to Concubine Liu, he accidentally saw that Emperor Xuanwu was also here.
His heart skipped a beat, and he began to think reflexively about which foot he had stepped with first when he entered the hall just now.
It could be left, it could be right,
But considering that I had just been running all the way, and the threshold to enter the temple was quite high,
Maybe... he jumped in with both feet?
……
Forget it, it’s just a hundred taels of gold, not a big deal!
Yun Chuhuan, who believed that one could lack anything except money, only hesitated for less than two seconds and put the problem behind him.
"My son has met my father!"
"Ah."
Emperor Xuanwu responded in a haughty tone, not really wanting to deal with this little bastard who was competing with him for the imperial concubine.
Yun Chuhuan didn't care, or perhaps he was so thick-skinned that he didn't even notice his father's dissatisfaction.
After the ceremony, he could not wait to hand the Capital Weekly to Concubine Liu:
"Mother, please look at this! This was co-founded by my fifth sister and I!"
"When did the Capital Weekly become a joint venture between you and Xiaowu?"
Emperor Xuanwu, who was ignored at the side, heard this and couldn't help but interrupt:
"Which word here did you write?"
Yun Chuhuan said confidently: "I didn't write it, but I paid 100,000 taels of silver!" Emperor Xuanwu: "..."
This brat!
For someone who spends money so lavishly, it seems the fine was too light!
"Mother, look here!"
He didn't realize that his casual remark about the 100,000 taels of silver had greatly irritated his petty-minded father.
Yun Chuhuan directly helped Concubine Liu to turn to the third article in the Capital Weekly, and then described the incident of meeting Cao Wenbin that day in an exaggerated way.
Finally, he looked up with an unhappy face and asked Concubine Liu:
"Mother, why did Fifth Sister write such an article when she knew that Cao Wenbin was not a good person?"
"I've heard your fifth sister come and go every day recently. Didn't your fifth sister tell you why?"
Not only did her beloved son, who used to be the most attached to her, run to Fengyang Palace every day for the past half month, but he also kept mentioning his fifth sister no matter what.
Concubine Liu was a little jealous before, but it was not until she read the capital weekly today that she realized that Yun Shu's rise to fame in the harem in such a short period of time was not just due to luck.
He does have some real skills.
“Fifth sister only said that sometimes being praised is not a good thing.
But I looked left and right, and I didn’t see anything bad.”
Hearing Concubine Liu's question, Yun Chuhuan became even more depressed:
"Later, the fifth sister said that even if you don't understand it, there is also fun in not understanding it.
It is better for me to wait for a while, and then I will understand.
But I don’t want to wait any longer! "
He started to act like a spoiled child:
"Mother, please tell me!"
"But mother thinks your fifth sister is right."
Concubine Liu stretched out a finger and gently poked Yun Chuhuan's brow:
"You, you have to learn to be more careful!"
Although she wanted Huan'er to live an easier life, to do whatever he wanted without having to fight for a position that was destined to be filled with blood and gore.
But you can't be so blind that you can't see such an obvious plot!
"You should wait until the next few issues of the Capital Weekly come out before you read on!"
"Mother, how can you be like this too!"
Yun Chuhuan stamped his feet in anger, and turned around to try again with his father.
Emperor Xuanwu was even more outrageous. He didn't even give him a chance to speak, and directly blocked the topic:
"If you can't figure out such a simple question, you'd better stop reading the Capital Weekly and study hard with your master!"
Yun Chuhuan: “!!!”
"What kind of Taifu is this? He's just a fellow who hasn't even stepped through the threshold of the morning court!"
No one has told him the answer he longed for.
Unfortunately, the two people in front of him, one is his mother and the other is his father, neither of them is someone he can vent his anger on.
In the end, only Master Ye could get him to say a few words:
"I heard that he just entered the court two years ago. What did you see in him, Father?"
"You don't even know why your fifth sister praised Cao Wenbin, yet you still have the nerve to criticize Ye Aiqing?"
Emperor Xuanwu was almost pissed off by him:
"Ye Aiqing was born in a poor family, but he was chosen by a great scholar and accepted as his apprentice. When he was fifteen, he won two first prizes. If his father had not passed away that year, so that he could not take part in the palace examination,
He had already become the youngest person in the dynasty to have passed the imperial examination and become the top scholar!
You should be secretly happy to have someone as talented as Ye Qing as your tutor, but how can you be so shameless as to look down on him?"
