Chapter 935: Asking the Son (1)
Chapter 935: Ask me (Part 1)
As Hongzhou was worried, the fourth prince did not spare him after returning home.
After entering the yard, he directly asked someone to take Hong Zhou and let the person get on the board. The few who were ordered complained in their hearts, but no one dared to make trouble in front of the Fourth Prince, so they could only take one stroke at a time.
Hongzhou was not brave enough to carry it at this time, and he could not help but cry and call his parents, and he screamed miserably.
Seeing that his son was so naughty, the fourth prince became more annoyed and asked someone to beat him hard. Looking at that look, he wished he could get started.
Hongli had long noticed something was wrong, and as soon as he returned to the mansion, he slipped to the backyard to move his savior.
So, after Hongzhou got beaten for more than a dozen slaughters, the fourth concubine arrived in a hurry.
When Hongzhou saw him, he howled "big mom" more miserably.
Although Nian has given birth to two sons and one daughter in recent years, except for the young prince who was just over the month old, the other two died one after another. Hongzhou has been the youngest son of the royal family for ten years. Although he was born in a concubine, the fourth prince and the fourth concubine are inevitably a little pampered, which makes him develop such a naughty temperament.
If you see him, the fourth concubine felt distressed, but she didn't dare to stop him, and said straight: "My grandpa is back. Nian is a little uncomfortable this afternoon. I only invited the imperial physician to see him. I'd better go and have a look."
Nian is weak and now he has passed the confinement period, but he still keeps taking medicine all day long.
After hearing this, the Fourth Prince glared at Hongli behind the Fourth Concubine, snorted coldly, and headed towards the inner house.
The few people on this round of boards were also smart and stopped without anyone asking for instructions.
"Fifth brother, is it okay?" Hongli stepped forward, helped Hongzhou up, and asked with some concern.
Hongzhou was just howling, distracting his energy, but he didn't feel any pain. Now that the board stopped, he thrust in pain and said pitifully: "Fourth brother, it hurts." As he said, looking at the Fourth Fool, he said with a tremolo, "Big Mother, it's all bad for his son, which makes Ama angry."
Seeing that his forehead was covered with cold sweat, his clothes were covered with dark red blood stains. I didn't know how hurt he was, so I hurriedly asked someone to send him back to his yard and asked someone to hire an imperial physician.
Hongzhou only said that nothing happened, and the Fourth Concubine asked him why he was beaten. He did not hide it and truthfully explained the story of his playing tricks on the Cao family in the Prince of Chun County Mansion.
After hearing this, the Fourth Concubine put down her face and said, "You are naughty and naughty all day long, but you should also know the right and wrong. That child is your cousin's adopted son, and he is younger than you. You are the uncle and take good care of him. Whose child is not the heart of your parents? You bullied him, so what will happen to meet your elder sister in the future?"
Among the clans, the four concubines had some preference for Chu Yu and his wife, but they were much closer to other younger generations. In addition, the couple gave people the impression that they were very honest and kind. It is conceivable that the children taught were also obedient, otherwise they would not have been fooled by Hongzhou.
Hongzhou thought about the blood on Hengsheng's lips, and was very uneasy, and his face turned red, saying, "Big Mom, my son knows he's wrong... I'll go to apologize to my elder sister tomorrow..."
Seeing that he admitted his mistake honestly, the fourth concubine was a little annoyed and said, "You are getting older, no longer as young as you were. You must not let your temper be irresistible. I am most afraid of these things. Not only will I hurt my relatives, but I will also wipe my face. Next time, I will not be able to do anything."
Hongzhou nodded vigorously and said, "Big Mother, my son dares no more..."
At this moment, Hongzhou's biological mother Geng and adoptive mother Niuhulu both received news and came to see him. Seeing him like this, he felt so distressed and angry, and he could not help but nag with red eyes.
Fortunately, when the imperial physician examined it, it was just a skin trauma and no muscles were damaged.
When the Fourth Concubine and Geng and Niuhulu were both gone, Hongli sent the maid out, and the two brothers whispered.
"Tell me, why do you deal with Cao Xiaoer? You can't just say something that Hongjing was instigating before. He was mean to use us as a gun. I don't believe you didn't see it." Hongli moved a small stool, sat by the kang, and looked at Hongzhou.
"Who wants to deal with him? It's just a coincidence. Who would have thought that the cast iron hanging on the schoolyard was the same as in the mansion here? A few years ago, my third brother coaxed me to lick the frost on it at the schoolyard. I was not fooled, and even asked Dongsheng, who was serving him. It's been four or five years since I was six or seven years old. He was a silly man. I just thought he was about the same age as us and would definitely not be fooled. Who would have thought that kid was so real!" Speaking of this, Hongzhou didn't know whether to sigh whether he was unlucky or sigh that he was unlucky.
After hearing this, Hongli frowned and said, "The third brother bullied you, why didn't you say it earlier?"
"It's not considered bullying, don't worry, fourth brother. If he wants to fight with his younger brother now, he will not be able to take advantage." Hongzhou swears.
Hongli looked at him and said for a while: "Hongjing is not kind, so don't play with him in the future."
Speaking of which, the two brothers were only a few months apart, but Hongli was steady and Hongzhou was naughty, so they were quite as good as the elder brother and the younger brother when they got along.
Therefore, Hongzhou was not unfamiliar with Hongli's preaching and said with a smile: "That guy, that little bit of care, if you can't plot against me, I will rest assured..."
*
Hongzhou only had two days off and asked the Fourth Prince for instructions to go to Cao's mansion to apologize.
The two families had a very good relationship. The fourth concubine was unwilling to alienate the relationship because of the children. Seeing that Hongzhou was indeed fine, he allowed him to leave the house. Hongli, who was inseparable from Hongzhou, certainly followed him.
Because of the extraordinary reasons around Li, the fourth concubine also made a special trip to prepare gifts for the two young princes.
Cao Yong went to the Ministry of Revenue and was not in the mansion.
Chu Yu heard that his two cousins were coming and went to the front yard to receive them in person.
Although she was annoyed by Hongzhou's nonsense, she knew that her husband valued the exchanges in Prince Yong's mansion, so she valued them more.
I heard that the two young princes not only came to apologize, but also wanted to pay tribute to Li. Chu Yu did not dare to be solemn and asked someone to go back to the inner court to ask Li for instructions.
Li was not seen at first, but I heard that these two young princes were in their teens and respected the meaning of the Fourth Prince, so I had to come out to meet.
A few months ago, rumors about Li's life experience were full of heated, and Hongli and Hongzhou had also heard of it.
Although they would not naively call him "aunt", they also took the opportunity to look at Li. Not to mention the other side, they were the thin eyebrows and eyes, and there was indeed some shadow of Aisin Gioro's family.
He was just wearing a wide-sleeved Hanfu and a round bun, and he was not as gorgeous as a Manchu noble lady, but he looked a little more friendly than other elders.
Li also thought of bloodlines, thinking that these two young princes were their nephews, and he felt quite strange.
Seeing that Hongzhou really apologized, she couldn't complain, but she just said that she asked the two little princes to take care of Tianyou's brothers in the future.
Hongzhou was most concerned about Hang Seng. He heard Chu Yu say that Hang Seng was "rehabilitating" in the past two days, and he was a little uneasy and insisted on going to visit him in person.
In fact, Heng Sheng was just scared the day before yesterday. When it comes to injuries, it is not as good as Hong Zhou.
However, Cao Yong thought of Hongzhou's active nature and decided to come over the past two days, so he stopped his studies and "retreat" in Kwaiyuan.
Regarding this incident, Cao Yong asked the children to remember three points: First, don’t believe in others’ words and think more; second, you must know that except for parents and relatives, others will not be good to themselves for no reason, so you should be more careful and distinguish between good and bad; third, a gentleman takes revenge, it is not too late for ten years, and even if he holds a grudge in his heart, don’t talk about it.
He is not afraid of teaching his children to be petty. He would rather have selfish and careless temperaments so that he can suffer less harm in his future life.
Seeing that Prince Hongzhou came to visit the disease as his father said, Hang Seng didn't know how to say it.
Although the wound on the lips is better, the wound on the tongue is slowly healed and is still painful now.
It would be false to say that Hengsheng did not blame Hongzhou in his heart, but he followed his father's instructions and put aside his dissatisfaction. He only said that it was his fault. However, he was talking, he was hesitant and looked even more pitiful.
At this time, Chu Yu had already asked someone to call Tianyou back to Kuiyuan from the study.
Tianyou must have said a few words, how can my younger brother not go away from the fever, how did my parents stay for two days, how could my younger brother only eat porridge, but not salty, etc.
Even Hongli was embarrassed to say that, let alone Hongzhou, the initiator.
When he came out of Cao's mansion, Hongzhou felt even more guilty than when he came.
"Fourth brother, didn't Hongjing say that this Hang Seng is the adopted son of the Cao family? It doesn't look like it?" Hongzhou said in a muffled voice: "It's not that the big prince raised her outside, right?"
Hongli glared at him and said, "What are you talking about? This Hang Seng was brought back from Mongolia by a big prince. This is not a secret. Look at Hang Seng's appearance, broad face and high cheekbones, which is exactly what the Mongolians look like..."

Outside the Ministry of Revenue, Cao Yong looked at the man dressed in Mongolia in front of him and felt puzzled.
This man was twenty-five or six years old, with short beards, looked familiar, tall and mighty, wearing a royal blue ball blessing robe, followed by several strong servants.
Who is this person? He actually came to the yamen directly.
This is related to the affairs of Mongolian countries, and the Rifle Council is responsible for it. It should not be found in the Ministry of Revenue, and it is also named after the name.
He looked at the man, and the man was also looking at him, but his expression was a little complicated, like resentment, or like something else.
"Is it your Excellency to look for Cao?" In the end, Cao Yong spoke first.
"My name is Geynpile. I came from the Zasaktu Banner and respected Concubine Khan's order to see Lord Cao and ask about the whereabouts of the child." The man spoke stiffly and slowly.
Zasaktu Banner, this is a name that Cao Yong cannot forget.
Cao Yong's heart suddenly sank.
Because of Hang Seng, Cao Yong was also very concerned about Northwest Mongolia. It was just because they were far away that they paid homage to the outside world every year, unlike the Northeastern divisions, who came to pay homage to the people in the royal palace, and they were all shifts, so Cao Yong did not have the opportunity to meet the people in the royal palace.
Cao Yong is not unfamiliar with the name of "Gerakyanpile". This is the nephew of the Zasaktu Khan royal family. He had officially appointed the heir of the Khan a few years ago.
It was not until now that Cao Yong saw him that he understood why Concubine Khan wanted to send Hang Seng out of Mongolia.
