Chapter 548: The friction in the palace (two in one)(1/2)
It's another New Year Festival. Before I knew it, Du Shaoqing and his family have been rooted in Chang'an City for four years, and Xiao Xuanxuan is almost nine years old.
On this day, Du Shaoqing took his family to the palace to pay New Year's greetings. The family was having a hot chat with the emperor and the empress in Lizheng Hall. Li Chengqian's son Xiao Lixiang ran in crying.
"Xiang'er? What's going on? Why did you cry like this?" Queen Changsun asked with heartache.
But Li Xiang cried so hard that she was sobbing for a while and couldn't answer. This made everyone feel anxious.
Just as the queen was about to tell Li Xiang to follow her, Xiao Xuanxuan walked over quickly, pulled Li Xiang over and pressed her on her stool, and scolded her like a big sister: "Stop crying, hold it back!
I ask you what happened and who bullied you? Tell my sister, I'll stand up for you!"
A strong wind of the world came towards him, and Princess Changle turned her head powerlessly, thinking that this daughter could not be disciplined by herself.
Not to mention, if anyone is the best person in front of the eldest grandson of Li Xiang, the eldest grandson of the emperor, is excluded from Li Chengqian and his wife, Xiao Xuanxuan is probably the first choice. After all, when Li Xiang was a child, she was Xiao Xuanxuan's follower.
Xiao Lixiang immediately stopped sobbing and choked and said, "No, no one, bullying Xiang'er."
"Then why are you crying? You're so hungry?" Xiao Xuanxuan frowned.
"No, not hungry!"
Xiao Xuanxuan impatiently gave Li Xiang a trembling sound, "Speak quickly, don't talk too much, a group of people are waiting for you."
"Yes, it was Dad and Mother who started fighting, and Mother who was beaten! Wooh..." Speaking of this, Li Xiang couldn't help crying again.
Everyone in the Lizheng Hall looked bad in an instant. During the Chinese New Year, the couple in the East Palace fought?
Who would have thought that Xiao Xuanxuan comforted her when she heard this answer: "What's this? When I was a child, I also saw my father beat my mother. It's okay, they'll get up the next day..."
Hum? What's the situation?
Everyone looked at Du Shaoqing and his wife, and Princess Changle was not understanding. When Luoxia Town, had she been beaten by her husband, a nerd?
Du Shaoqing looked innocent. I really never did this before!
This is nothing nonsense. Now I am in my parents' home, and even if I have done it, I cannot admit it, otherwise I will not be beaten to death.
When Du Shaoqing heard his daughter beside him say that it would be fine to get up, he burst into tears and shouted that something was wrong. He quickly pulled his daughter to her side and covered her mouth. It turned out that she was talking about fighting on the bed? This girl is really a scam. I don’t know when she was caught in Luoxia Town. How could she talk nonsense about such a thing? It’s so shameless.
"Dad, what are you going to do? I'll help Xiaoxiang'er again." Xiao Xuanxuan struggled.
Everyone looked at the father and daughter in confusion, and Li Er and his wife had bad eyes, especially Li Er, the daughter-in-law. At this moment, she seemed to not care whether her son and daughter-in-law were fighting or not. She stared at Du Shaoqing as if she was staring at her prey and asked: "Boy, have you ever attacked Li Zhi?"
"No, how is this possible? I..." Du Shaoqing couldn't argue. Looking at the old father-in-law's expression, it seemed that the other party didn't believe anything he said.
At this time, Princess Changle advised: "Father, my husband treats me well. He has never been disrespectful at all. He has never beaten and scolded me. Don't think about it. The child was still young at that time, what do you remember?"
"I remember, I..." Xiao Xuanxuan was anxious to tell, but her mouth was covered by her unscrupulous father again.
Du Shaoqing lay in his daughter's ear and whispered: "You don't remember anything. This is a secret. If you talk nonsense, your father won't love you anymore in the future."
"Oh..." Xiao Xuanxuan was so scared that she covered her mouth with her little hands.
Li Er said angrily: "Boy, what are you doing? Let go of my good granddaughter, I want to hear the truth."
I... this, I really can't say...
Du Shaoqing looked at the room, how could he dare to tell such an embarrassing thing?
In desperation, he left his daughter and walked to his father-in-law, and whispered in his ear, so that no one could hear it.
Empress Changsun covered her mouth and smiled, "What else do you guys and son-in-law say to me?"
After a while, Du Shaoqing returned to his seat. Li Er's old face turned red and glared at Du Shaoqing fiercely and cursed: "You bastard, you are really a fool.
This child has to be more concerned about educating him. Look at what he has taught?"
"What puzzle are you fighting? Shaoqing, I want to hear it too, just tell me." The queen said dissatisfied.
Li Er quickly smoothed out the situation: "Hehe, queen, please don't ask. Some children are not suitable. I will tell you privately in the future."
Puff... Du Shaoqing almost vomited blood, thinking to himself, "What kind of father-in-law is this? What is not suitable for a child? Didn't you say everything in this sentence? Now who can't guess what is going on?"
Looking at Princess Changle's instant blushing face, you know that it's over, Xiao Xuanxuan must be beaten when she returns.
After realizing that he had made a mistake, Li Er quickly changed the topic and concealed it, "Boy, whether I am true or not, you will remember it clearly for me. If you have any of the things that make Lizhi wronged, I will never forgive you.
Apart from me, a father, Lizhi is the most inseparable brothers from her parents. You should know what to do.”
Ahem, how did this turn into a family meeting as we chatted? Du Shaoqing was full of black lines.
Then he also changed the topic to Li Xiang, "Xiao Xianger, how did your father and mother fight? Let's talk to us?"
"Ahem, what are you asking? The person comes, the inheritance of the inheritance is here." Li Er ordered loudly, and someone outside immediately had to go and pass on the order.
Li Er was afraid that what Li Xiang said was a fight in bed, so it was really embarrassing. How could so many children and women be there?
Xiao Lixiang recalled and said in a fearful tone: "Mother started arguing with her father, and then she grabbed her father's face first, and her father knocked her to the ground, just like the last time Sister Xuanxuan beat someone else."
My... this is also accurate! Du Shaoqing was speechless, and Xiao Xuanxuan also knew that she had once again become famous. She was so angry that she really wanted to pretend not to know Li Xiang, the pig teammate.
Okay, the matter has been made clear. Everyone knows that the East Palace couple did get angry and started to fight.
Du Shaoqing hesitated for a moment, stood up and said, "There is still something to do at home, so let's go back first."
This is a normal etiquette. As a son-in-law, no one wants to encounter such a thing. It means the family scandal of the Li family. It should not be mixed with it. It is better to be unaware of it, and there is no right to speak. So he chose to avoid it and take care of the face of all parties.
Li Er scolded: "What are you running away? You kid is paying attention to etiquette at this time?
No need to avoid it, they are not outsiders. Lizhi, go to the East Palace with your mother.
Xiaowu girl, take the children to the toy house in the palace for a while.
Shaoqing, you kid is Chengqian’s teacher. Stay with me to see what’s going on?
If you cultivate yourself and manage your family and govern the country and pacify the world, you can’t even deal with family affairs. How can you talk about governing the country and pacifying the world?"
The queen met Li Chengqian on the way to the East Palace with her daughter. The other party covered her face with her sleeves and did not dare to see anyone. Empress Changsun scolded: "Why did you tell you last time? Why are you so unsatisfied? You can't even have a good holiday."
"The child knows that he is wrong! Mother, why did he disturb you and your father?"
"What? Are you afraid of being embarrassed? Don't make trouble if you are afraid of being embarrassed?
The palace is so big, and Chang'an City is so big. I'm afraid that the situation in your East Palace will be regarded as a joke in the city."
After saying that, the queen raised her feet and continued to head towards the East Palace, leaving Li Chengqian standing there stupidly.
Princess Changle advised in a gentle voice: "Brother, my mother and I will help you persuade my sister-in-law. The child grows up day by day and sees everything. You can't make trouble anymore. Both the father and mother are angry.
Go to Lizheng Hall quickly, my father is waiting for you."
"Thank you, Wumei, it's hard to say anything. Let's find an opportunity to tell you." Li Chengqian turned around and left dejectedly.
Only the emperor and Du Shaoqing were left in the Lizheng Hall. Li Er was ashamed of water. Seeing his son covering his face, Li Er was furious and said, "What are you doing to cover your face?"
"Report to my father, I was accidentally caught by a cat."
Du Shaoqing next to him couldn't help laughing out loud. Isn't this going to cover up? Who doesn't know you're fighting?
Glazing at his son-in-law, Li Er opened the way and said to Li Chengqian: "What's wrong with this time? Don't you know it's the New Year? You don't feel embarrassed!"
"Return to Father, actually, actually..."
Li Er said impatiently: "Okay, no need to explain!
In the past, when you couple were fighting, they never had any red faces. Now, they are quarrel every three days and every five days.
You don’t need to guess, it’s because of the Queen of Silla, right?
You can't take over two women, I really don't know who you are with?"
Li Chengqian didn't say anything, so he just pretended to be accused.
After a moment of silence, Li Er said in a deep voice: "Since your eldest wife, Hou, is jealous and has no tolerance, then let's change people. Which of the royal family has three wives and four concubines? They are all like her, how can my Li family have a scattered family?"
What??
Du Shaoqing was stunned.
Li Chengqian was also confused, it wasn't true. It was just that the couple had a quarrel, so why did they have to divorce their wives and replace them?
"The father calms down. Actually, it's not that Hou's fault. This time the child is wrong first, and we are just a small quarrel, and we actually have a good relationship."
OK, now it’s great to talk about the relationship between husband and wife?
Du Shaoqing looked at Li Er's expression on the side, thinking that he was not good, but Li Chengqian had just answered wrongly. When dealing with wives and concubines, Li Er wanted his son to learn to be as domineering as himself, so he should never plead for mercy at this time.
In Li Er's eyes, it was like this son leaning on his daughter-in-law everywhere. How could this be done? If Hou becomes the queen in the future, wouldn't the harem interfere in politics?
So Du Shaoqing persuaded, "Father-in-law, please calm down. How can a couple not quarrel in private?
Besides, Chengqian and his wife have always had a good relationship. He has been in Tubo for several years. The Hou family has suffered a lot. Everyone has a very good reputation for her. Even if you don’t take it in writing, you can also take it to Xianger. I believe he can settle it."
"Father, I have indeed neglected my inner son recently. The child will handle it. Please rest assured," Li Chengqian promised.
Li Er stood up and scolded Tiebuchenggang, "It's useless. How can a big man let two women restrain their hands and feet? Could it be that I will teach you step by step?
I'll be angry when I see you!"
After saying that, Li Er left with his sleeves.
Let Du Shaoqing and Li Chengqian stay, and that’s what celebrities want to teach students, let those who are teachers come.
Du Shaoqing said curiously: "Looking at the face of Hou, he is not like a jealous person, how come he has always had conflicts with you recently? Is there any hidden truth?"
