Chapter 455: He Dares to Be a "Kind Father and Filial Son" Today and a "Conspiracy to Rebel" Tomorrow. This Child Must Not Be Allowed to Stay.
Chapter 455: He dares to be "kind father and filial son" today and "conspire to rebel" tomorrow. This child must not be kept...
In the Forbidden City, a side hall in the harem, this is the palace of the fifteenth prince of the Chenghua Dynasty, Prince Ren.
Since the emperor fell ill, Prince Ren has prayed for the emperor many times. Later, he caught a cold and stayed in the palace to recuperate. He was taken care of by his mother, Concubine Shu, and his aunt Murong Xian.
When Xu Xin came here, he saw Murong Xian directing the palace maids and eunuchs to hang up the white cloth. The palace had already passed the news of the emperor's death.
"The child is inside, and he is still angry with you."
Murong Xian broke through the innate realm many years ago. Her face has not changed much now, and her body... has been developed very well by Xu. Because of the consequences of the cold poison entering her body in the past, coupled with being in the palace for many years, it is not easy to give birth.
"Ren'er, don't blame your father. He can't do anything about it in that position..."
Beside the bed in the palace, the graceful and dignified Concubine Shu was persuading a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old. When Xu Xin came in, they saw that Murong Shu's face suddenly overflowed with a smile, and the young man immediately turned his head away and didn't look at him, like a child who was angry with his parents.
This is naturally Xu Xin's eldest son in this life. There is also a word "Ren" in his name. He is named after the Chenghua Emperor Zhu Jianshen, who has been unpopular for many years. He is his youngest prince and the first close relative "royal heir" born in the Hongzhi Dynasty. He is deeply loved by the emperor.
In the years when the Hongzhi Emperor and the Empress were childless, they even treated this child as their own child to pamper and raise him. It can be said that he has never been wronged.
Also as the "son" of the Chenghua Emperor, Zhu Wushi is so miserable. Illegitimate princes are not included in the genealogy. If he wants to be a prince, it depends on whether the emperor is willing.
And this stinky boy who is lying on the bed has long been agreed to be a prince. The reason why he has not gone out to be a vassal is that he has not yet chosen a concubine.
He was born in the first year of Hongzhi, and he had not yet been chosen as a concubine at the age of 19, because his parents and elders doted on him too much and let him find a suitable girl by himself.
There were naturally criticisms from the ministers for a royal relative of such an old age still in the palace, but with Xu Xin, the real "father" who could suppress him, everything was not a problem. The main reason was that Concubine Shu had only this one child, and she was reluctant to let him go.
"Swish!"
Xu Xin walked to the bedside and pointed in the air. Prince Ren, who was pretending to be sick, immediately felt that his strength had returned, and he immediately flipped out of the bed.
After getting up, the brat flew directly to Xu Xin, and acted "fatherly and filial" to vent his dissatisfaction with Xu Xin's recent control over him.
However, his kung fu was all trained by Xu Xin, and he knew the character of young people very well. Before the brat made a move, he was already on guard, so it was naturally impossible for him to be attacked successfully.
The father and son started fighting in the hall. Murong Shu and Murong Xian, the two sisters, were naturally worried. They were more worried about the brat. How could he be a match for their father? He would probably be beaten up again.
Their premonition was not wrong. Even though the brat was very powerful and was trained to the innate realm by Xu Xin with special means at a young age, he had little experience in fighting enemies after all. What he knew was all taught by his father. He quickly fell into a disadvantage.
"Pah!"
Xu Xin dodged the kick from the brat and kicked him on the butt.
The child is disobedient when he grows up? Then just beat him up.
Xu Xin adhered to this concept and was not polite to the brat. Of course, he did not use heavy hands, but more of a kind of instruction, and soon restrained him with one hand.
"If you are done fighting, change your clothes quickly. Don't let everyone wait for you in the Qianqing Palace. That would be too rude."
After saying this, Xu Xin simply let go of his hand. The stinky boy in front of him did not continue to fight, but took the white clothes handed by Murong Shu and changed.
"You are not convinced."
Xu Xin glanced at the stinky boy who pretended to be silent. Although this boy was naughty before, he was still a child who was very filial to his parents. It was just because of what happened recently that he was dissatisfied.
A long time ago, Xu Xin and Murong Shu told this stinky boy about his life experience. He was shocked when he had a basic understanding of him at that time. Later, he learned that even his close aunt was... He quickly accepted his life experience.
He was not born when Emperor Chenghua died, and he had no feelings.
Emperor Hongzhi and the Queen loved him very much and regarded him as their own child, but that was before the fourth year of Hongzhi. After the fourth year of Hongzhi, they had their own children, and this love would certainly transfer.
The little kid who was only four years old, even if he could feel the love, still loved his mother and aunt more. So after he learned about his life experience, he quickly accepted Xu Xin, his biological father, and he also longed for fatherly love!
This eldest son of Xu Xin in this life is very talented. With Xu Xin's secret teaching and the resources of the royal family, he learned everything quickly. The most accomplished one is naturally martial arts. His progress far exceeds that of Zhu Wusi of the same period. He just broke through the innate realm in the first month of this year.
For such a talented child, even if he was angry for a while, Xu Xin had the patience to explain to him, otherwise he would just eat and wait for death... Impossible, absolutely impossible, he, Xu, could not have such a son.
"I am not your opponent, so you have the final say in everything, but I just don't understand."
"Even if you can't save His Majesty openly, you can pretend to do it, whether it's offering medicine or other means. In short, there are many ways. Why don't you do anything... and don't let me save him..."
The crux of the boy's dissatisfaction with Xu Xin is naturally the matter of Emperor Hongzhi. The emperor loves and values his "imperial brother" very much. He has been living a luxurious life since childhood and his treatment is on par with that of the crown prince Zhu Houzhao.
The royal family resources are used to train him. The crown prince Zhu Houzhao follows him to learn skills and calls him uncle, but in fact he is his younger brother.
Of course, Zhu Houzhao follows him to learn martial arts with Xu Xin's permission. If Xu Xin doesn't allow it, Zhu Houzhao can't learn his real skills.
The emperor loves him so much, actually treating him as his son. He naturally respects and has feelings for the emperor. After the emperor fell ill, he wanted to save him, but was stopped by Xu Xin, and the father and son had a conflict.
"The emperor's life span is like this, and the emperors of this lineage don't live long. It has something to do with the feng shui of the palace. Even if he is saved once, something may happen again later."
"So, Houzhao may also..."
"I know this matter well..."
Xu Xin explained a few words, and the face of the stinky boy in front of him became a little better.
I still have a way to control my son. Before, the emperor had not died. If he was released, he might get angry and do something bad at any time. Now it's a done deal, and no one can change it except Xu Xin.
On the way to the Qianqing Palace, Xu Xin looked at the back of the stinky boy in front of him, and he was already planning to kick him out of the capital to go to the vassal.
He dares to be "kind to his father and filial to his son" today, and "conspiracy to rebel" tomorrow. This son must not be kept. Liaodong is a good place, and the Northeast should be developed...
