The emperor's heart alone

Chapter 63

Shi Junji had eaten his lunch and was about to take a lunch break when he heard Zhang Dequan coming to ask Chu Renqing to see him. He was also very clear about Lin's desire to kill Chu Fang, and he was even more aware of Xu Yunjin's manipulation behind him. Shi Junji acquiesced and had no intention of interfering.

I understand now, Chu Renqing came to ask for an interview, and Shi Junji naturally knew why: "Xuan."

"My minister sees the emperor."

"Pingshen." Shi Junji said, "Chu Aiqing is in a hurry to see me, is there anything important?"

Chu Renqing bent down even more. If it was an ordinary matter, he would certainly not be able to come to see the emperor and beg the emperor to make decisions. It's just that the position of their Chu family is very sensitive. If there is any separation, they must report it to the emperor no matter what. Yes, this is actually more in Chu Renqing's mind. After all, if even the emperor agrees to the separation of the family, it means that they have nothing to do with Chu Renhong's Chu family, so even if the emperor wants to trouble the entire Chu family in the future He was not worried that the emperor would dispose of their family because of the Chu family.

From this point of view, Chu Renqing also had a purpose in coming to see the emperor. He just wanted the emperor to personally agree to the matter of breaking up with the Chu family.

Chu Renqing said: "Your Majesty, I came here for the affairs of the Chu family." Then his tone turned into grief, "I only have a son like Chu Fang, and I will let him die as a minister after a hundred years, but who would have thought that, At noon yesterday, he was deliberately murdered, and now he is still lying on the bed in a coma."

"Oh? There is such a thing?" Shi Junji's tone was cold, "Chu Fang is the son of an imperial court official, and someone tried to kill him? Has the murderer been caught?"

Chu Renqing showed hesitation: "The murderer has been caught, it is Chu Lin."

"Chu Lin?" Shi Jun was extremely puzzled, "Isn't Chu Lin your eldest brother's son, your own nephew?"

"Yes." Chu Renqing said, "I don't believe it either, but Chu Lin was caught on the spot. Everyone present saw it. They can all testify that it was indeed Chu Lin who stabbed Chu Fang."

Shi Junji was silent for a long time, Chu Renqing lowered his head and couldn't see the emperor's expression, and became more and more worried. In fact, there are still many doubts about the whole matter. For example, Chu Lin is not stupid, why did he attack Chu Fang in broad daylight? ?Why did Chu Lin kill Chu Fang?He deliberately ignored these doubts because he knew Chu Fang's plan, and he could cover up the past with anger and grief. Chu Renhong and Chu Lin also knew that this was a conspiracy and forbeared it for the time being, but if someone cared, it was still easy to find out the whole thing suspicious points, and then discover the truth of the matter.

Chu Renqing's palms are sweaty, the truth is not important, what matters is whether the emperor wants their family to live or die.

Shi Jun spoke very slowly: "How do you want to deal with it?"

Chu Renqing knelt on the ground with a "plop": "I only have such a son, I can't bear the pain of losing my son, and I don't want to let go of the murderer who hurt my son, but he is my nephew after all. I, I want to be with Chu." From now on, Chu Renhong's Chu family and Chu Renqing's Chu family have the same name of Chu, but they have nothing to do with each other."

In the last sentence, Chu Renqing said it firmly, and Shi Junji naturally heard that Chu Renqing was imperative. He turned his head to look at Chu Renqing who was kneeling on the ground with his head bowed, and there was an intriguing smile on the corner of his mouth. She smiled and said, "That's your Chu family's business, and it's inconvenient for me to intervene. As for how to deal with it, it's better for Chu Aiqing to make up her own mind."

Chu Renqing was taken aback for a moment, and then burst into ecstasy. What Shi Junji said meant that he agreed to break with Chu Renhong?Chu Renqing was inexplicably excited: "I thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

Where is his grace?Shi Junji said in his heart, it was just for Xu Yunjin's face, since Xu Yunjin intervened in this matter, partly because of Chu Fang, he naturally couldn't bear to let Xu Yunjin's plan fail, Shi Junji's eyes stayed on On the teacup in his hand, Chu Fang's thoughts towards Xu Yunjin made him extremely displeased. He wished to crush Chu Fang and burn his bones to ashes. How could there be any possibility of helping him?It's just that Xu Yunjin hoped that Chu Fang would be fine, so he had no choice but to keep Chu Fang safe.What's more, if Chu Fang really died, it meant that Xu Yunjin would remember Chu Fang for the rest of his life. How could he allow such a thing to happen?

"Chu Fang's serious injury is the most important thing now, so I will let Di Shuangjie go with you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Di Shuangjie was an imperial physician, and being able to take the imperial physician to treat Chu Fang was enough for Chu Renhong to see clearly the emperor's attitude.

Chu Renhong had already made people stare at Chu Renqing, and now that he had received the news that Chu Renqing had returned with the imperial doctor, how could Chu Renhong not know the emperor's attitude?Can't help but secretly hate in my heart.

"Things without brains!" Chu Renhong casually threw the picture scroll on the table at Chu Lin, and Chu Lin didn't dare to dodge at all, so he had to accept it forcefully.

"Even the emperor is facing Chu Renqing now, it seems that I don't even count on your life!" Chu Renhong said angrily, the emperor meant to let him separate from Chu Renqing and let Chu Renqing stand on his own Well, Chu Renhong really didn't expect the emperor to agree to Chu Renqing's proposal!Their Chu family relied entirely on the empress to achieve their current honor. Now that they have finally left two high-ranking officials, Chu Renqing and themselves, the rest will be worthless!Now that the queen is seriously ill in bed, who knows when she will get better?In the end, Chu Renqing wanted to break with the Chu family. How could Chu Renhong not be angry and anxious?

A trace of resentment flashed in Chu Lin's eyes: "Father, I think if we can find out the truth of the matter and report it to the emperor, the emperor will know that it is not my fault at all, it is simply their own directing and acting. They will definitely go to the deceitful Chu Fang, Xu Yunjin and the others, as long as we find out the truth, we can win this round."

"Nonsense!" Chu Renhong has never seen Lin clearly like today. He clearly thinks that Chu Lin is very smart. Now it seems that people who have never experienced anything can't see it through even if they are smart. "It doesn't matter what the truth is now. Now, the important thing is that even the emperor is on their side! What's more, if you stab the truth to the emperor's side, doesn't it mean that the emperor's previous judgments are all wrong? Who in this world would dare Pointing at the emperor’s head and saying you’re wrong? Chu Lin, you’ve let me down so much!”

"But, but." Chu Lin couldn't help but argue, "Father, why did the Emperor agree to Uncle's proposal? Maybe, maybe the Emperor just listened to what Uncle said, but in fact..."

"Confused!" Chu Renhong became more and more disappointed with Chu Lin, and said in a deep voice, "Of course the emperor will not disagree with this proposal! As the power of our Chu family grows, the emperor must be on guard. At this moment, Chu Renqing proposed Isn't it what the emperor wants to see? But..."

"But what?"

"But it's not a bad thing." Chu Renhong suddenly thought.

"A good thing?" Chu Lin was at a loss. From the beginning to the end, he didn't think it was a good thing.

"The break with Chu Renqing's family means that the power of our Chu family has been split, and the power will naturally be weakened. The emperor will not be so afraid of the Chu family. This is of course a good thing." The more he said, Chu Renhong felt that there was nothing Wrong, Chu Renqing had nothing to do with him when he was no longer in the capital, and he didn't have much influence after he returned to the capital, and it didn't matter if the emperor wanted to sever his relationship with Chu Renqing, it was almost nothing to him what effect.

Chu Renhong's heart was moved, and his tone eased: "Yes, this is a good thing. It seems that a blessing in disguise is not just nonsense."

"Knock, knock, knock—" A servant's voice came from outside the door: "Master, Mr. Liu, the left servant of the household department, is asking to see you outside."

Liu Sanshao's father?Chu Renhong and Chu Lin were both taken aback for a moment, Chu Renhong said first: "You go back first."

Chu Lin withdrew, and Master Liu was brought in. When he saw Chu Renhong, Master Liu's face was filled with flattering smiles, and he bent over to greet Chu Renhong.

Chu Renhong's face was not good-looking, he was still angry with Master Liu, no matter what role Master Liu played in this matter, he had created a barrier to him.

"Lord Chu, this lower official is here because of that rebellious son." Master Liu smiled, not minding the disgust and disgust on Chu Renhong's face at all. I was so terrified that I hurriedly sent someone to take the rebellious son back. It is still closed now. It is because the lower officials are not strict in teaching the children. mean to do it."

In just a few words, Master Liu has already sold Liu Sanshao. According to him, as long as Master Chu is happy, it doesn't matter if Liu Sanshao is killed. The good son who came out, I dare not teach him a lesson."

"Where is the matter, Master Chu?" Master Liu wiped the sweat from his brow, "Master Chu, the lower officials really didn't know about this matter before, if they knew, how could they let that Nizi do such a thing? Chu You know it, my lord, but this officer respects you very much."

If this matter is really talked about, Liu Sanshao only played a role in fueling the flames, but just suing the matter to the Yamen has given Chu Renhong enough headaches, and it took Chu Renhong to settle the matter. It took a lot of effort, but even so, this matter was quietly spread throughout the capital.It's just that no matter how much Chu Renhong hated Liu Sanshao, since even the emperor knew about it, Chu Renhong didn't dare to take Liu Sanshao's life.

So I just mentioned a little bit: "A bastard is a bastard. Naturally, it is impossible for me to have any estrangement with Mr. Liu because of a bastard, isn't it? Don't worry, Mr. Liu. I still understand this, but I am a bastard, and I don't think it will be very promising. , I can't get the family property, and I can't get your love, Mr. Liu, so I am very relieved."

Master Liu understood Chu Renhong's meaning in an instant, and immediately responded repeatedly: "Don't worry, Master Chu, the next official will give Master Chu a satisfactory answer." After that, he didn't stay any longer, and immediately rushed out to deal with Liu Sanshao.

Regardless of whether it is in the thinking of Chu Renhong or Master Liu, what a concubine wants most is to be treated like a concubine. No matter whether this idea is right or wrong, as long as he stays at home, there is still a glimmer of hope. However, if Was kicked out of the house?
