When the sun rose in the east, the dust settled, and the farce ended.
Emperor Xiaochun punished his third son, dismissed him from his post, and shut himself up to think about his mistakes. As for the second child, he will be detained in the mansion for two days first. He has to think carefully about how to deal with him. After all, there are generals who are fighting abroad, as well as the pleadings of the imperial concubine and a group of veterans... There are many things involved. Emperor Xiaochun is still Decided to defer processing.
The imperial concubine cried and fainted on the spot, and was carried away. The ministers retreated, and the hall immediately became deserted and lonely.
Who can understand the pain and helplessness of a king and a father.
The queen walked slowly towards her husband. She was only on the ninth floor, but it was like climbing a ladder to the sky. She walked with difficulty and hesitation.
"His Majesty."
The queen's hand gently covered his hand, trying hard to suppress her dissatisfaction with his handling of Li Luanfeng, and said softly:
"As your child grows older, your heart also grows bigger. Isn't this how you have come through step by step? You should be aware of it."
Emperor Xiaochun buried his head in his arms and remained silent.
The queen continued: "You should have dealt with him harshly, but you picked him up high and put him down gently. You didn't even convict him. Instead, you harmed him."
The emperor raised his head with a sad look on his face: "The queen wants me to kill all my sons."
The Queen was startled, and withdrew her hand unceremoniously, saying: "What are you talking about? You can't speak properly, right? Do I mean that?"
"Then what do you mean?" Emperor Xiaochun did not give in at all, "Do you have to rub salt into my wounds at this time?"
The queen was furious and said impatiently: "Okay, okay, I won't tell you, I don't understand people's words, you can just stay by yourself."
After saying "唔唔唔唔"", he quickly walked down the hall and went straight to the door. When he reached the door, he did not forget to say another disgusting sentence: "Maybe your majesty should go and see your delicate concubine, give her a kiss and hug her. As soon as I hugged him, my son was released, haha."
"Queen..."
Emperor Xiaochun wanted to say something more, but the queen had disappeared.
He sadly fell down on the dragon chair and thought to himself, why can't you comfort me? Is there anyone in the world who is more miserable than me? Among the several sons, the fifth was demoted, the second was imprisoned, and the third was dismissed. , the remaining two little monkeys have not grown up yet, and finally the eldest, who is a bit normal, is still... Duanxiu...
Suddenly remembering something, Emperor Xiaochun picked up his robe and ran after the queen: "Queen, Yaya, wait for me, tell me what happened to the broken sleeve..."

It was quiet inside Zhang's Mansion, and several strong servants were waiting at the gate, copying the guy's business.
Zhang Chengru dragged his heavy steps and looked dejected. As soon as he showed up, he was pushed to the ground by his servants and tied up tightly:
"Let's go, take her to see the old lady."
"You guys, even I dare to tie you up if I rebel against you."
"Uncle, please stop screaming. We are waiting for you. If you struggle less, you will suffer less. Let's wait until we see the old lady to discuss everything."
In this way, Zhang Chengru was thrown into Qinghui Hall.
A whole room of people stared at him eagerly, and even his mother Gu, who loved him the most, had a bad expression at this moment.
"Zhang Chengru." The old lady hit the floor with her cane, "What good things have you done? You are so ungrateful that you have lost your face in the court."
This means that good things never go out and bad things spread thousands of miles.
I'm afraid that after the court, many people "accidentally" passed by Zhang's house and told them everything about what happened in the morning.
In fact, Zhang Chengru had already figured it out along the way, and he felt a little regretful in his heart.
"Mother, my son knows he was wrong."
"What's the use?" The old lady was so angry that she gasped, "You said you, I didn't know that you married Shen Que for three years and still haven't had sex. This is a good thing you did."
"Auntie." Zhang Guanhua couldn't stand listening anymore and said loudly: "Mother should say the important point. My eldest brother has bullied my eldest sister-in-law for all these years, and now he actually slaps me on the back and slanders my eldest sister-in-law for making peace with His Highness the King of Jin. Brother, you have a long brain, then Jin The king just returned triumphantly this year. How could he ever meet his sister-in-law, let alone make peace with her? Moreover, in these years, my sister-in-law has only been at home, serving snacks and drinks to the family, besides going to the shop. How could he be so ungrateful?"
"That's right, eldest brother, it's not that the third brother is talking about you." The third brother said: "What time is it now? You can still be used as a weapon by others. Do you think our family is not in complete chaos?"
"Third brother, don't talk about him either." Mrs. Gu looked at Wang Peilan, "Your wife has done such good things that you have been demoted. You should go back and take good care of your wife."
"Mom, I can take care of my daughter-in-law, but mother, don't blame your son for being incompetent." The third child spread his hands, as if he was going to die, "Mother is the one who should reflect on herself the most. My mother has loved her eldest brother the most since she was a child. What? When it comes to everything, my eldest brother takes priority, let alone my sister-in-law, even we have to step aside, and this is how I make my eldest brother indifferent and confused."
"The third brother is right." Zhang Chengsong, the second master who never spoke, finally spoke, "I will make up for the wrong things my wife did. In the past, she was disrespectful to my sister-in-law. I am willing to take her to apologize to my sister-in-law, but my mother , should you also reflect on yourself? Over the years, the person who has rubbed and squeezed my sister-in-law the most has been you, mother. Now that our family has been in this situation, we know that the person who was once bullied by us has gone far, mother. , if we don’t apologize, I’m afraid it will be too late.”
Zhang Guanhua also stood up and said: "Mother, I have made mistakes before. If my sister-in-law hadn't helped me and let me see the true face of Li Luanhong, I would have been finished in this life. At that time, mother, you would only scold me, and only my sister-in-law would be scolded." He is the one who really saved me. Mother, you should apologize to my sister-in-law. Maybe my sister-in-law is soft-hearted and can forgive us."
…
The conversation started, and everyone was talking about Zhang Chengru, Gu, and themselves. This time, Gu was silent.
She knew she was wrong and that everyone was right, but asking her to apologize to Shen Que was still a bit embarrassing.
"Mother, please say something."
Zhang Guanhua urged, everyone looked at her.
The old lady had a splitting headache and said impatiently: "Let's all go. Let's go quickly. I have to rest. I'll talk about the rest tomorrow."
"Mother..." Zhang Guanhua was still unwilling to give up. When Mrs. Gu glared, she had no choice but to leave unwillingly.
Mrs. Gu glanced at Zhang Chengru who was lying on the ground, sighed and ordered: "Lock Da Lang in his yard, and don't let him associate with that Zhou Xueying anymore. If anyone else asks, just say he is sick, just stay for a day During three meals, you are not allowed to step out of the yard.”
After everyone left, Mrs. Gu thought about it all by herself in the room. Finally, gritting her teeth and stamping her feet, she decided to go to Shen Que and apologize to Shen Que while no one was paying attention at night.
She still wanted to keep this old face.

There was a uniform sound of practicing kung fu in the Lemon Fragrance Pavilion. Standing outside the wall, Mrs. Gu couldn't help but sigh: Shen is the only one who is the master of the house. He can make money and take care of others. Now he can still practice kung fu. Hey, hey, he is really Her old eyesight is dim. If she could forgive herself today, she would not care about her son or daughter-in-law. Even if she recognized a daughter, she would be willing to do so.
She had a good idea, and she was willing, but the bad-tempered His Highness inside might not be so easy to talk to.
Li Luansong had just finished practicing his kung fu and took a shower. Hearing Zelan say that the old lady came to see him, he frowned and said, "If you don't see her, just say I'm asleep."
Zelan said: "The old lady said she heard us practicing and also heard the eldest lady's voice. She can't shirk it."
Li Luansong said that he didn't see that either, "It's definitely not good for a weasel to pay New Year's greetings to a chicken."
Zelan glanced at her, closed the door, and said softly: "Madam, I think you should meet me. I heard that everyone there regretted it, and maybe they came to beg the eldest lady. Since we are here Life in the house cannot always be so clear-cut, what do you think?"
Right or wrong.
Li Luansong sat up. He didn't agree with Zelan's statement, but he thought of Shen Que.
It is inevitable for Shen Que and Zhang Chengru to reconcile, but even if they separate in the future, they must vent their anger for her before they separate, so that they can fully realize their mistakes.
He may not need any apology or false reputation, but Shen does need it. That is the fairness she deserves.
Instead of walking away with resentment and never interacting with each other, it is better to make people surrender at their feet, which will lead to a more upright and upright walk.
"Okay, see you soon."
Li Luansong put on his clothes and let the old lady into the house.
Sitting opposite each other, it feels like a world away.
Only then did Mrs. Gu realize that her yard was so small. Although the layout was very particular, she had spent her own money to buy it. As a mother-in-law, she was really embarrassed.
"Shen Que, I'm here to apologize to you today." Gu said straight to the point, lowering her head: "It was my fault in the past. I had evil intentions when I married you. I have bullied you and wronged you all these years, and now I know that you Well, reflect on your own mistakes, I know it's too late, I don't ask for anything else, I just want peace of mind, I hope you can forgive me for being such an old fool."
His words were soft and his attitude was sincere, but Li Luansong didn't want to agree.
These words should be said in front of Shen Que. This is her apology.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Mrs. Gu scolded herself and scolded her son, daughter, and daughter-in-law. She actually broke into sweat after doing this.
Seeing that he had drank two cups of tea and had said all he needed to say, Li Luansong slowly said:
"You want me to take charge of the family again?"
Mrs. Gu is right.
Li Luansong shook his head.
Mrs. Gu hurriedly said: "All the money is from the family. Use as much as you have. I won't take advantage of you."
Li Luansong thought for a while and said, "You came to me in the middle of the night. If I just agreed like this, it would be a bit shady. As for me, I have long been disappointed with the Zhang family, especially Zhang Chengru. I That’s what I thought, the spring hunting is coming soon, this is an event that all aristocratic families will participate in, and it is also the most important event for His Majesty and the royal family.”
"I won't be in charge yet, but everyone must listen to my instructions. Let's practice hard and strive to be a success in various competitions in Spring Hunting. As for me, I also want to see if you are obedient and how sincere you are."
Gu said yes, "If you can revive the Zhang family, I'll be willing to take my life."
Li Luansong said I don't want your life, "Then training will start tomorrow. You can go and inform them. They will be waiting for me in the yard at the next minute."
