"Am I talking nonsense? Hehe, his life is much better than yours, and he has more than one child. You don't think your bastard is his only child, do you?"
"Impossible, you lied to me, absolutely impossible, you are just sowing discord." The Queen Mother retorted with red eyes.
"Why should I sow discord? After you have been locked up here for so many years, has he ever come to look for you?"
The Queen Mother deceived herself and made excuses for the other party, "He...he has his great cause. He cannot indulge in his children's personal affairs. He is a person who does great things."
Ouyang Xu felt that his brain must be damaged, otherwise why would he be standing here talking to her? Hahaha, what is he still looking forward to? Then without a word of response, he turned around and left.
Behind him, the Queen Mother's sharp scoldings kept reaching his ears, and he didn't want to pay attention to it anymore. He shouldn't care at all, he's used to it, right?
After leaving the courtyard, Ouyang Xu looked confused and confused. The eunuch chief who followed him was covered in sweat and knelt down worriedly, "Your Majesty..."
"Deal with the person and find a reliable person. Next time, you don't have to stay by my side."
"Yes, I will never make such an oversight again. Thank you, Your Majesty, for giving me a second chance." The eunuch chief finally felt relieved, but his mind was still racing. What went wrong? His people were bribed. Or have you always been someone else’s person? It's time for another screening in this palace.
Ouyang Xu looked back at the cold palace. Once upon a time, he had family happiness and enjoyed the love of his father and mother.
He also came into this world full of love and expectation. When he was young, the Queen Mother also loved him very much, making clothes for him, playing with him and coaxing him to sleep. Although his father is a reserved person, he can still feel the kindness under his calm temperament. Although he is harsh, it is to give him more means to protect himself. After all, he was born in an imperial family, so there is nothing he can do about it.
Since when did his family become like that?
It seems that when he came back from Baiyun Mountain when he was thirteen or fourteen years old, he had a younger brother, but it took him a few years in Baiyun Mountain before he had the opportunity to go back and see. It should have been a happy thing, but he was sensitive to the changes between his father and his mother. Although on the surface, the queen mother still cared deeply for her father, her smile did not reach her eyes and was more like acting. And the father, who once had such deep love for his mother, now only has a pool of stagnant water in his eyes.
Ouyang Xu didn't know what was wrong. He had been smart and sensitive since he was a child, and he could feel any changes immediately. He didn't know what happened between his parents and whether there was a misunderstanding. He wanted his parents to reconcile wholeheartedly. No matter how many opportunities he created for the two of them, it didn't help. Looking at the hypocritical queen mother, he even felt that she was not worthy of his outstanding father. Later, his father became more and more indifferent and almost stopped going to his mother's palace. However, her mother didn't seem to care at all and still lived a luxurious, comfortable and happy life. She stayed with her younger son all day long, completely ignoring others, including his eldest son. She never made him clothes with her own hands again, never asked him what he liked to eat or if he wanted anything else, but for his younger brother, she took care of everything with her own hands.
At first, Ouyang Xu thought that he was going too far. He was his younger brother, and he was young. His mother should care more about him, and he shouldn't be so petty.
But slowly, he became aware of his mother's intentions. After all, he was no longer young and knew everything he should know.
"Xu'er, look at your brother, how powerful he is. He was praised by his master at such a young age. He is a born emperor."
"Xu'er, you are an older brother, and you must help your younger brother in the future. Even if...even if your younger brother does something to make you unhappy, as an older brother, you must let him go and protect him. Does he know?"
"Xu'er, go and talk to your father. Didn't your father give you the top secret guards? Ask him to arrange some for your brother too. You have them all, but your brother can't have them, right?"
"Xu'er, can you ask your master if he can also teach your younger brother? Although your younger brother is young, he is extremely talented. Although Mr. Understand."
"Xu'er, how could you do this? He is your younger brother. You have to let him go. You can't snatch everything from him."
······
Ouyang Xu gradually became unwilling to go to his mother's harem anymore, and his heart grew colder. His father saw everything but said nothing. Once, his secret guard told him that he saw someone sneaking into the queen's palace, but... his hesitant expression succeeded in attracting Ouyang Xu's attention.
He sneaked into the queen's palace late at night and saw a scene he would never forget in his life. In the room, all the servants serving in the palace were kicked out, leaving only the Queen Mother, his nominal brother, and another man. Wearing a black cloak, most of his face is under the cloak.
He hugged his brother and talked to him lovingly. And his mother stayed by his side like a wife, as gentle as water. Listening to their conversation, Ouyang Xu didn't know how he left, but he knew clearly that his mother had betrayed his father and their family. Even his younger brother was someone else's child. He rushed out like crazy, but he didn't know where to go at the moment, so he sat on a desolate mountain outside the palace all night, blowing the cold wind all night.
Later, his father took him back. After he returned home, he had a fever. The fever lasted for three days. His father took care of him without sleep for three days, but his mother never came to see him from the beginning to the end.
Later, he returned to Baiyun Mountain not long after. His father didn't say anything. Ouyang Xu knew that his father knew everything. Even the scene he saw was intended for him to see. At that moment, he hated him a little, why, why didn't his father stop him, why did he let his mother continue to make such mistakes, and even gave birth to an evil son.
His father stood on the tower, watching his leaving figure until he disappeared. He knew v, but he never looked back.
As everyone knows, when he comes back, he will only be able to see him for the last time. Ouyang Xu regretted it very much. If he had not been so stubborn that time and said goodbye to his father properly, maybe he would not regret it so much. He would never forget that when his father died, he was as skinny as a stick and looked like he had been exhausted.
He is a good emperor who is devoted to the people. He is also a good father, leaving him enough confidence to protect himself and helping him take care of everything so that he can successfully sit in that position. In the end, she was still planning for him, "Those two people, the younger one must not stay. As for your mother, for the sake of your uncle's family, let her live, and don't dirty your hands."
