Chapter 87: Professional "rogue"
Emperor Lin Fengxun is sixty-six years old this year. He ascended the throne at the age of thirty-three, which means he has been in power for thirty-three years.
The reason why he was able to ascend to the throne was due to his innate reincarnation skills and acquired luck.
The late emperor had eight sons, the first seven died for various reasons, leaving him the last one and no other choice.
Thirty-three years have passed since he ascended the throne, and he has made no political achievements, but his love for gold, silver, jewelry, jade and other collectibles has only increased.
The brocade box is two feet square in size, and inside is a golden tortoise that fills the entire space, has a tall carapace, is finely carved, and is bright yellow and golden, with a hefty weight.
It cannot even be simply called a big golden beetle, but an extra-large golden beetle, an extra-extra-large golden beetle.
Prince Duan finally lowered his eyes from the top of his head. After staring for a long time, he remembered that his arrogant personality could not fall. "This golden tortoise looks very heavy. Is it inlaid with gold?"
"A full one hundred and ninety-nine taels of gold." Zhou Chang gave the exact number.
Everyone was so surprised that their jaws widened. Even Emperor Lin, who had an entire treasure house, was no exception. He was so shocked by the huge golden turtle in front of him that he was speechless.
Emperor Lin blinked and looked at Zhou Chang again. Although he did not show any expression on his face, he began to feel suspicious in his heart.
Only Fang She's mouth was almost split to the back of his ears, and he smiled brilliantly, as if the golden tortoise was given to him: "Your Majesty, it's quite substantial. I took a bite."
Prince Duan was indifferent, with one eye glued to the golden tortoise and the other to Zhou Chang: "This is not like Prince Yi's usual behavior."
Gu Yan swung his right arm and asked, "Why did His Royal Highness Prince Yi send such a big gift?"
"Isn't it enough to show your filial piety?" As far as Prince Yi Fengming could remember, he had no good feelings towards Prince Duan and his party, and Zhou Chang also wanted to disgust this uncle and nephew.
Emperor Lin Fengxun's face was uncertain, and he thought of the incident with the hole in the imperial robe burned. However, that was the crime that was taken for the twelfth prince, and it was already in the past.
Zhou Chang put on an extremely sincere face and said, "If your Majesty does not believe me, I can take it back."
"Hey, what nonsense are you talking about, ninth brother? It doesn't matter whether it is pure gold or not. As long as it is out of filial piety, father will know it." Prince Rong Fengduo coughed lightly, and then said to Emperor Lin, "Father, no matter what, this is ninth brother's filial piety."
Prince Rong has always been virtuous, benevolent, and of outstanding character, and has enjoyed the support of many important officials in the court.
Otherwise, Prince Duan's mother, Consort Gu, was the sister of Duke Guo, and Prince Duan was arrogant. Prince Rong himself had no powerful relatives to support him because his mother, Concubine Shun Tian, was a palace maid of low birth. He should have been suppressed by Prince Duan and Duke Gu's party long ago.
In front of the emperor, Prince Rong always speaks in favor of Prince Yi.
Prince Yi was respectful and close to Prince Rong, and Zhou Chang also developed a liking for Prince Rong.
Emperor Lin was hesitant, and Zhou Chang continued to do the opposite: "Father, this golden tortoise is made of 199 taels of gold, which symbolizes longevity and happiness. If you don't believe it, return the golden tortoise to your son."
Is there any reason to return something that has already been obtained?
The main thing is to pull. In the past, Prince Yi would not and was unwilling to do so, but Zhou Chang is different now.
The Emperor Lin remained expressionless, but he was wondering in his heart, why would Prince Yi send such a big gift for no reason? In addition, he had wronged him a few days ago and almost demoted him, what was he planning?
After thinking it over, the Emperor could only come to one conclusion: "Did Prince Yi send this because of what he said the other day?"
"Puff..." Zhou Chang almost vomited blood.
Is it so obvious?
“Father, how could you doubt the filial piety of your son? It would be fine for others, but even father, if you are like this, your son has lived in vain.” Zhou Chang knelt on the ground with a plop, covering his face and howling. There was only thunder but no rain. “Wuwu…, your son’s heart is as red as the moon, but the moon is only shining on the ditch…”
"Huh? What did I say?" Emperor Lin was puzzled and took him a moment to react.
"Ah..., father, how could you wrongly accuse me?" Zhou Chang yelled and screamed, howling like a ghost, secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and held his hand.
Everyone present was stunned. What was going on?
Once Zhou Chang started, he couldn't stop.
The scene of crying, making a fuss and then hanging oneself may seem vulgar, but sometimes it really works.
No matter what nonsense poems he was reciting: "Thousands of hammers and chisels dug deep into the mountains, raging fires burned as if it were nothing, I would rather die with fragrance on the branches, never be blown away by the north wind. Who says that the grass has a heart of its own? I am not afraid of being crushed to pieces, I just want to leave my innocence in the world..."
Emperor Lin has begun to doubt himself. Could it be that what Concubine Rui said that day was really true, and Prince Yi was actually a truly filial person? Otherwise, why would he be so emotional just because he said that?
"What a big golden turtle, pure and pure golden turtle, gold, my father..." Zhou Chang howled for a while, but couldn't squeeze out tears, "I am a son, and my filial piety will last forever, the endless fallen leaves are rustling..."
It was also the first time for her to perform the difficult "forcing the palace". Her cultural level was limited, and Prince Yi was not a read person. The two of them together could not be considered half a scholar.
After kneeling for two minutes, Zhou Chang felt pain in his knees, so he changed his posture and sat on the ground.
Dry howling is the most tiring for the voice, and it also requires banging the head on the ground, which hurts the head. Just banging it a few times is just for the sake of it.
But he couldn't stop with his hands, he had to pull his hair, and he couldn't stop with his mouth, he had to cry and howl.
Emperor Lin looked at Prince Yi, who was rolling on the ground like a turtle turning over its cover or a loach in a pot, and finally felt a little guilty as big as a fingernail. He guessed that it was because he was wrongly accused of the incident a few days ago.
But the emperor never apologized, and there was no reason for a father to apologize to his son.
The Emperor's eyes twitched violently and his heart twitched, but he still had to keep a straight face: "Prince Yi, don't be unreasonable. Since you said it was a pure gold tortoise, whether it is true or not, I believe you. Ming'er is still filial."
Since Prince Yi came of age, Emperor Lin seldom called him by his name.
Zhou Chang was tired of "crying", so he lay on the ground to rest for a while, and began to hum.
When I heard this, what does "it doesn't matter whether it is or not" mean?
He got up from the ground and wiped the non-existent tears from his face: "Father, you said that you don't want your son to live. Can a son deceive the emperor? Confucius said that people are born good and filial to their parents. Who says that the love of a little grass can repay the kindness of three springs..."
"It's alright, it's alright. Ming'er, I may be feeling unwell today," the Emperor waved his hands up and down to appease her. What a mess, it was too embarrassing. He blurted out, "I wronged you, don't take it to heart."
wronged?
That can't be wrongly accused.
Prince Yi Fengming's pair of beautiful phoenix eyes suddenly smiled like a fox.
Zhou Chang also laughed in her heart, "playing rogue", she is a professional. "In life, you should have the best love with yourself; when you are alone, you are dating yourself."
