Hearing that Huang Qiong taught the Kung Fu she taught him to an outsider without her permission, her mother's face couldn't help but change slightly: "Who allowed you to teach the Kung Fu I taught you to an outsider without permission? You? Do you know that what you did was extremely hasty. No matter how good-hearted this woman is, you can't be so casual."
"What did I tell you when you left the palace? How could you turn a deaf ear to it? Even if you have this intention, this girl really fell into your eyes, but why didn't you discuss it with Xiaoyao first before making a decision? Non-initiators are not allowed to practice Kungfu. If you had not been my son and a disciple of my sect since birth, I would not have taught you martial arts."
Seeing that her mother was really angry, Huang Qiong couldn't help being frightened, and quickly knelt down in the tunnel and said: "Mother, my son is indeed a little negligent on this point. But the son really only thinks about his mother, and also for his mother's sake." I made this decision for the sake of this woman. After she enters the palace, you will know the reason why your son is tempted when you meet her."
Speaking of this, Huang Qiong couldn't help but want to slap himself hard in the mouth. I was deceived by watching TV series and martial arts novels in my previous life, and thought that the great masters were not vying for what they saw as martial arts prodigies. Now after what my mother said, I realized that those things were just nonsense.
Looking at Huang Qiong kneeling in front of her, her mother shook her head helplessly. After being silent for a long time, the mother said: "Tonight, I will go and see this person. If it is really like what you said, I will consider accepting her as a disciple. If not, you will teach her the internal skills Fa, I will take action to chase you back."
"As for the matter you are talking about, I will wait until I see someone before talking about it. However, this will not happen again. If it happens next time, I will definitely punish you severely. Remember, your efforts must not be leaked out easily unless it is absolutely necessary. . This is the rule of the master, and it is also the rule I set for you. This time, you will kneel here for half an hour as your punishment. "
How could Huang Qiong dare to disobey her mother's words? Moreover, he also knew that he had indeed handled the matter a bit hastily. Then he knelt down honestly in his mother's study. Moreover, according to his mother's long-standing habit of punishing him, he had to straighten his waist when kneeling, and he did not dare to use kung fu to resist the pain when kneeling.
Huang Qiong did not dare to get up to greet the emperor until he came. Seeing Huang Qiong kneeling straight there, the emperor was somewhat surprised. There were only two people in the room, one was in the middle of punishment, and the mother did not dare to speak. Besides, even if he asked, Huang Qiong wouldn't be able to tell him the truth. One of them was cold and silent, and no one told him the reason.
Of course, the emperor was also very sensible and did not ask what was going on. Anyway, it was because of me that I was often so angry with this ninth son. Now that I saw Huang Qiong being punished to kneel there, I felt a sense of revenge in my heart. Thanks to his ex-wife for not having time to vent her anger on him, and for interceding for Huang Qiong.
The emperor's gloating face made Huang Qiong curl her lips helplessly. The emperor is willing to have fun with himself, so what can he say or dare to say. Anyway, if he is willing to give up on his mother, let him do it. When the time comes, his mother will help him get it back, right?
Sure enough, after meeting the emperor, my mother's attitude was still so cold. The emperor was used to cold expressions, but he said indifferently: "It's rare for Ah Jiu to enter the palace today. I think this child has grown so big now that the whole family has not yet had a meal together."
"I also know that I am unqualified as a father and have neglected you mother and son over the years. I just took advantage of today's opportunity to have a meal together as a family. Although it is a little late, it is finally a compensation for Ah Jiu. I am not an emperor here today, I am just an ordinary father."
Hearing the emperor's words, Huang Qiong couldn't help but curled her lips in her heart, with some disdain: "Return a family? You put our mother and son in the cold palace for eighteen years, why didn't you say we were a family? Now I think we are a family, why did we go there earlier? Just wait for mother to slap you in the face."
To Huang Qiong's surprise, although her mother did not directly answer the emperor's words, she nodded slightly in agreement. Huang Qiong was startled by her mother's reply, which was not an answer. He didn't know what the problem was, and how could his mother's attitude change so drastically?
What about the lack of family ties in the Tian family that was promised before? What about being as cold as ice? Huang Qiong's mother's current appearance was almost completely different from what she remembered, leaving Huang Qiong dumbfounded and a little baffled. But one thing he knew very well was that with his mother's character, she would never accommodate the emperor because of him.
Huang Qiong, who was kneeling straight there without even daring to bend down, was somewhat overwhelmed by her mother's change. I feel like I missed something during the time I was out of the palace. Although he felt doubtful in his heart, he didn't dare to question his parents even if he had the guts.
Regardless of the character of his own father or mother, if he really asked, he would be really itchy. However, although her mother agreed to eat together as a family, Huang Qiong, who was being punished, was not exempted from punishment. He knelt there obediently for half an hour before being allowed to stand up.
While Huang Qiong was being punished by kneeling, the emperor was there, holding a book and pretending, while looking at Huang Qiong's mother from the corner of his eye. As for Huang Qiong, he didn't even bother to look at her. After getting up, Huang Qiong grinned because his back and legs were sore from kneeling, as if he hadn't seen him at all.
After Huang Qiong stood up, Gao Wuyong, who was very eye-catching, immediately asked people to pass the meal. It can be seen that this guy has put a lot of thought into it. The imperial meals passed down are mainly based on Huang Qiong's mother's daily taste, and most of them are vegetarian dishes. As for meat dishes, there are only one or two.
Maybe he knew that he couldn't stand up to his ex-wife, the emperor of a country. There was no separate table, just the round table where Huang Qiong and her son ate daily. Moreover, the emperor, unconsciously when he took his seat, sat directly next to Huang Qiong's mother.
When it was time to eat, Huang Qiong was even more shocked to find out. My mother actually didn't refuse the emperor's dishes, not even the meat dishes that my mother rarely used in the past. Although he frowned a little, he still ate it. You know, my mother never eats the food given to her by others, even her own son.
The meat dishes are almost motionless. Huang Qiong's jaw was almost shocked by her mother's performance today. During today's meal, I focused more on the couple in front of me. For some reason, Huang Qiong, the former couple, didn't eat much at all. Although this meal was the first reunion dinner with his parents in this life, Huang Qiong ate it like chewing wax.
Both the emperor and Huang Qiong's mother were food-loving people. Huang Qiong's mother only ate two small elephant-eye steamed buns, drank a small bowl of porridge, and then put down her chopsticks. Huang Qiong's mother put down her chopsticks, and the emperor, who had only eaten a small bowl of rice, naturally put down his chopsticks as well.
Seeing his parents put down their chopsticks, Huang Qiong, who realized that he was not even half full, could only put down his chopsticks. After the eunuchs and maids waiting around removed the untouched mats, they brought warm water to several people to clean their hands and offered tea.
The emperor glanced at Huang Qiong, who was constantly looking at himself and his mother with careful eyes. He snorted and said: "I am not someone who can be dismissed casually. You should think more carefully about the errand I give you this time. Remember, Governing a big country is like cooking a small dish, everything must be done in a safe manner. Don't rush into hasty success, otherwise you will end up with twice the result and half the result."
"Although there is a steady side in your temperament, there is also an impatient side. It is a good thing to think about the people, and I commend you for this. But now it has been more than a hundred years since the founding of the country, and the clan has flourished. Now it has arrived I have some taboos about it. Whether the clan is stable or not also involves the stability of the court."
"There are some things that even I, the king of a country, have to be wary of. After you come up with this article, don't go through the General Affairs Department, or the Shangshu Province and the Zhongshu Province. You can hand it directly to me. Also. When it comes to King Yong's affairs, you have to control him. I will consider his affairs after the wedding. But now, you tell him to be honest with me."
Having said this, the emperor glanced at his ex-wife who was holding a book and seemed not to have listened to the conversation between father and son. He hesitated for a moment before continuing: "You have to send me to the palace as soon as possible. Come, so as not to cause more trouble. I still know the character of King Yong. Once he makes up his mind about something like this, it would be strange if he doesn't turn everything upside down."
"Remember, you are not allowed to do those messy, debauched things with King Yong in the future. If you are discovered by me again, it will not be a matter of kneeling for half an hour. You are almost the same age, and I will choose a good one for you. It’s a matter of marriage. As for now, please be more honest with me. I’ll say it again, one eternal king is enough, and I don’t want another one. Okay, you just kneel down.”
The emperor, who still didn't know the real reason why Huang Qiong was punished to kneel, thought that Huang Qiong was punished to kneel by her mother because of the ridiculous night in Prince Yong's Mansion. The emperor didn't know, and Huang Qiong naturally couldn't explain it. After being scolded again and seeing her mother nodding, Huang Qiong could only touch her nose and leave with a bitter smile.
Huang Qiong was just a little curious about what his parents would do after he left. After leaving Ting Xuexuan, I looked at the sky outside and turned back quietly. He just knew that his mother's inner strength was profound, so he didn't dare to peek blatantly. I could only hold my breath and carefully put my ear to the window to eavesdrop.
The silence in the room made Huang Qiong feel a little puzzled. Gao Wuyong was still waiting outside Tingxue Pavilion, which meant that the emperor was still inside Tingxue Pavilion, which he was sure of. But Huang Qiong was a little confused by the silence in the room. It wasn't until it was almost time for the palace door to be locked, and Huang Qiong was about to give up eavesdropping and was about to leave, that some sounds came from the room.
The mother in the room could only be heard sighing softly and then said: "Why do you have to do this? You have done well enough in the past eighteen years. In the face of the hatred of the country and the family, you can still do this, it is already considered a great achievement There is love and righteousness. I still know how much wind and rain the wall of the Cold Palace has blocked our mother and son in the past eighteen years. So, there is no need to feel guilty now. "
