After a while, everyone in the yard was gone.
Zhu Xiurong was also brought back to the palace by Emperor Hongzhi.
Pingjiang Bo Chen Rui, who originally thought he was dead, now feels like he is on the verge of an amnesty!
After seeing the emperor leave with a smile and a good mood, Chen Rui sat down on the ground and breathed a long sigh of relief!
My entire back was soaked with cold sweat, as if I had just walked away from hell!
Butler Chen Zhong stood up from the corner tremblingly, regardless of the soreness in his knees.
Walked straight to Chen Rui.
"Master, get up quickly!"
After that, he called Li Yan, who was still lying on the ground without daring to raise his head, to come over and help him.
"No, no, no!"
Chen Rui quickly waved his hand to stop him, then his face turned red and he whispered:
"Go find me a pair of pants!"
Chen Zhong subconsciously looked between Chen Rui's legs and saw a pool of light yellow water stains on the ground!
Normally, Chen Zhong might secretly laugh at Chen Rui.
but now?
My life is almost lost, who cares about this!
"Master, please wait a moment!"
...
After changing his pants, Chen Rui felt better and walked towards the study.
Chen Rui was very curious as to what his prodigal son said that could turn His Majesty's anger into joy!
In fact, Chen Rui only found out after the fact that Zhu Xiurong was mistakenly carried into Pingjiang Bo's Mansion.
My first reaction was to be scared to death!
This is a major crime to punish the nine tribes!
But later, I was also stunned by Chen Ziyu's analysis!
I think it’s extremely reasonable!
But it's not his fault. Chen Rui was born in martial arts and has some abilities.
In his early years, he often led troops abroad, and his wife died young, which led to Chen Ziyu's neglect of discipline and his deformity!
But in recent years, the imperial court has prospered and wars have become less frequent.
Therefore, Chen Rui has fewer opportunities to lead troops outside. On weekdays, he is cautious and easy-going when facing his colleagues!
Those who can avoid being offended will never be offended!
Coupled with Chen Ziyu's reputation as a prodigal playboy, Chen Rui is even more low-key!
This also led to Chen Rui being considered a little transparent in almost the entire Ming aristocratic system.
Therefore, Emperor Hongzhi's unwarranted congratulations made Chen Rui and Chen Ziyu take it for granted, which was extremely normal.
I originally thought there was smoke coming out of my ancestral grave, but it turned out...
Until now, Chen Rui still has some lingering fears, but fortunately, it seems that his life has been saved!
As for the title...
Why!
Chen Rui sighed, feeling a little sore in his nose, and suddenly felt a little ashamed of the ancestors of the Chen family.
Chen Rui was outside the study, trying hard to calm down, then reached out to push open the door and stepped into the study.
Chen Ziyu, who was sorting out the collection of erotic pictures, raised his head and glanced at Chen Rui.
"Dad, why are you here?"
He kept talking, but the movements of his hands did not stop at all.
"Dad, come and see you!"
Chen Rui originally wanted to scold Chen Ziyu, but he swallowed the words again.
"What are you doing?"
Chen Rui has never seen Chen Ziyu be so careful, especially cherishing books so much.
Chen Rui couldn't help but feel a little confused when he looked at his son, and he felt more and more that Chen Ziyu had really changed a lot.
It seems that he is really sensible!
In his eyes, the collection of classics from various schools of thought he once owned was no different than toilet paper.
But now...
"Dad, come help you!"
Chen Rui walked directly to the desk and picked up the book on the table.
When I picked it up and saw the result, I was instantly stunned!
The movement was so fast that by the time Chen Ziyu reacted, Chen Rui's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot!
Chen Ziyu blushed and smiled coquettishly.
He snatched the erotic picture from Chen Rui and hid it behind his back.
Chen Rui stared at Chen Ziyu with an angry look on his face.
Chen Ziyu was a little embarrassed by Chen Rui's stare, so he said casually:
"Ahem, Dad, I don't want to study so that I can continue the family lineage of my Chen family."
Chen Rui's expression softened slightly and he took the opportunity to change the subject.
"What did His Majesty just talk to you about?"
Chen Ziyu said with a smile: "His Majesty just took an examination of my knowledge in school, and he even praised my father for his skill in teaching his children!"
Um?
Your Majesty is going to test your knowledge?
Chen Rui slapped his forehead!
It’s over!
It's really over now!
"You can't even recite a complete sentence of The Analects of Confucius, and His Majesty still praises you?"
"Not only did he praise you, but he also praised you for being a good father and educating his son?"
Chen Rui felt like he was about to cry and confirmed again!
"That's right! His Majesty also said that he knew how to do it and asked me to wait for news!"
Chen Ziyu nodded and replied again very seriously.
Chen Rui wants to cry but has no tears!
I secretly thought that my stupid son was really hopeless!
It seems that this incident has stimulated him too much, and now his brain is a little abnormal!
I can't even hear His Majesty's sarcastic remarks!
It's all my fault!
I have no idea how to teach my son!
Given such an evil obstacle, how could I, Chen Rui, have the appearance to meet my ancestors?
Chen Ziyu saw his father crying and asked in confusion.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?"
Chen Rui waved his hand and forced a smile to comfort Chen Ziyu.
"It's okay. It's okay if the title is taken away. Dad has thought about it. Although this house was passed down from our ancestors, it can only be sold now. It must be enough for us and my father to live."
"ah?"
Chen Ziyu was confused!
"Then we leave the capital and there is nothing wrong with being an ordinary citizen."
...
Chen Ziyu realized that his cheap dad thought he had offended the emperor.
By this time, we have already thought of an escape plan!
"Dad, Your Majesty really praised me, why don't you believe me?"
Chen Ziyu had a grimace and spread his hands, looking extremely helpless.
"Believe it, believe it, dad believes in you, my son is the smartest!"
Chen Rui touched Chen Ziyu's head, suppressed the grief in his heart, and coaxed his silly son.
Then he shouted outside the study:
"housekeeper."
Chen Zhong stood at the door and looked into the study and said:
"Master, are you looking for me?"
Chen Rui nodded and said feebly:
"You go to the British father-in-law. He has coveted our house for a long time. He used to joke that I would sell the house to him. Now I have fulfilled his wish."
"No, sir! This house was passed down by the old lady. What are you doing, sir?"
Chen Zhong immediately knelt on the ground and began to persuade hurriedly. He had no idea what was happening.
Chen Rui's face was stern, "What nonsense are you talking about? Go quickly."
Chen Zhong had no choice but to turn around and leave reluctantly.
Seeing Chen Zhong leaving, Chen Ziyu began to think secretly.
Chen Ziyu, the famous name of British Duke Zhang Mao, is known.
The grandson of Zhang Yu, King of Hejian, the eldest son of Zhang Fushu, King of Dingxing, and the second generation British Duke!
I just don’t know what he wants to buy a house for.
Now my father doesn't believe anything I say. Everything that needs to be explained has been explained, and now I can only let it go.
Anyway, Emperor Hongzhi promised to give him an answer soon.
With Emperor Hongzhi's character, Chen Ziyu believed that there would definitely be an unexpected surprise this time.
