I'm really not King Jing of Zhongshan

Chapter 12 The eldest brother is like a father
After staying in Changle Palace until around dusk, Liu Sheng returned to Guangming Palace in Weiyang Palace.

As expected by Liu Pengzu: Liu Sheng didn't have the usual smile on his face when he came back from Changle Palace.

"Hey······"

"Silly boy..."

Smiling and shaking his head, he ordered his maid to bring some fruits and vegetables, and Liu Pengzu dragged the distraught Liu Sheng to his palace.

Weiyang Palace is very large, the main hall of Xuanshi Hall, which is nearly a hundred feet long and wide, and the second hall of Qingliang and Greenhouse of the same size, occupy only a very small part of Weiyang Palace;

But the Guangming Palace where Mrs. Jia, Liu Pengzu, Liu Sheng's mother and son live is only one of the palaces in Weiyang Palace. It is not very big at all, but only twenty feet long and wide.

Including the sleeping hall specially reserved for Mrs. Jia's sleeping quarters, and the side hall where the maids live, the remaining part of the apse is the size of two small farm courtyards.

And these two buildings are not isolated, only divided into two small bedrooms, which is the residence of Liu Pengzu and Liu Sheng brothers.

Pulling Liu Sheng into the bedroom, knelt down before the table, and waved away the maidservant who brought the fruits and vegetables, Liu Pengzu finally sat down and looked at his younger brother Liu Sheng with a smile.

"Speak to your brother?"

"Emperor Grandmother, how did you reprimand and wake up?"

The indifferent words only caused Liu Sheng to widen his eyes subconsciously, but he didn't show too much surprise.

Since Liu Sheng came to this strange world, only his mother, Mrs. Jia, and elder brother Liu Pengzu took care of Liu Sheng.

Among them, the mother, Mrs. Jia, is in charge of pampering Liu Sheng, and the elder brother, Liu Pengzu, is in charge of 'teaching' Liu Sheng.

From childhood to adulthood, every time something happened, the situation in Guangming Hall was nothing more than Mrs. Jia holding Liu Sheng in her arms, comforting Liu Sheng, wiping her tears and saying something like 'mother is useless';
And Liu Pengzu will rely on his own cognition to analyze the cause and effect of this matter, as well as the key points for Liu Sheng.

Maybe someone will say: mother loves, brother teaches, so who will punish it?
Ah······

——For the people of the world, the two palaces of Weiyang and Changle are the residences of the emperor and the queen mother;

But for Liu Sheng, they are two "torture grounds" that appear alternately in life!
Needless to say anything else, Liu Sheng's two halves of the buttocks have already been covered with a thick layer of cocoons by the court sticks in Weiyang and Changle palaces!
It's just that in the past, it was the former emperor Liu Heng and the empress dowager Bo who beat Liu Sheng;

But now, it has become Liu Qi, Liu Sheng's father of the emperor, and Dou, the queen mother.

Of course, thanks to the national mourning, Liu Sheng hadn’t been subjected to the court stick in Weiyang Palace in the past few months, but because he punched Zhonglang Jiang Zhidu, he was beaten by the Empress Dowager Dou of Changle Palace;
But according to the past practice, Liu Shengxi's mention of Weiyang Palace's imperial staff is only a matter of the next few months...

Speaking of my elder brother Liu Pengzu, he has been able to speak eloquently since he was a child, no matter who he argues (chǎo) with (jià), he can always not fall behind!
Correspondingly, Liu Pengzu is always very thorough in his approach to problems, and can always hit the point with his words.

So at this moment, without saying a word, Liu Sheng was a little surprised when his elder brother asked, "Why did the emperor's grandmother scold you", but he was already numb...

"The emperor's grandmother said: Mother, she is a generalist;"

After saying something in a low tone, Liu Sheng raised his head lonely again: "I also said that my elder brother is like an elder brother, so I didn't embarrass the clan."

"Also tell me to be respectful to my elder brother in the future, brother and friend respectful, so that I can be a prince..."

Hearing Liu Sheng say these words that he had expected, Liu Pengzu smiled slightly, then lowered his head with ease, and grabbed a piece of persimmon from the table.

"and then?"

"But let my two brothers go to the eldest brother to inform, and it's better to explain it to Li Ji as well?"

Although it was a questioning tone, Liu Pengzu's face was full of ease, as if he was sure that Liu Sheng would nod, and he ate the persimmon in his hand.

But somewhat beyond Liu Pengzu's expectation, when he heard his question, his younger brother Liu Sheng shook his head silently...

"This is what I mentioned."

"I asked the emperor's grandmother if she should go to the elder brother and Li Ji to explain it, so as not to cause trouble."

"But the imperial grandmother said that you can't go, and if you go, it will be self-defeating, and it will make elder brother and Li Ji suspicious;"

"The emperor's grandmother also said that since the father asked us both to be apprentices, he had to find the prime minister; otherwise, it would be rebellion and disobedience..."

Hearing this, Liu Pengzu stopped chewing the persimmons immediately, and his complexion fell into a short period of sluggishness!

After a while, Liu Pengzu turned around from his astonishment, subconsciously chewed the persimmon in his mouth, and nodded thoughtfully.

"Yes."

"Although the eldest brother is kind, he is also suspicious by nature; Li Ji never knows what 'kindness' is."

"If you go there, it will indeed be suspected of 'there is no silver 300 taels here'."

"As for the prime minister, I have to go."

"——This encounter with the father is to kill the chicken to warn the monkey. A Sheng is a chicken, so the father's knife must be cut on the head of A Sheng."

"Otherwise, if the royal father can't be deterred, then it will be the real 'troubleshooting'..."

Listening to his brother's interpretation of the power, Liu Sheng just nodded silently, and at some point, a burst of sadness appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Liu Pengzu thought it was the emperor Liu Qi's ruthlessness that hurt his younger brother, so he stood up with a gentle smile, walked forward, and reached out to touch the top of Liu Sheng's head.

"Don't think about it."

"Father is in the ninth fifth position, so he must always put the world and the common people first; it's not a strange thing not to care about bloodline heirs."

"With my mother and brother around, Ah Sheng will not be bullied."

"What's more, the imperial grandmother also dotes on Ah Sheng?"

Liu Pengzu's words of comfort naturally warmed Liu Sheng's heart, but Liu Sheng just forced a stiff smile, and then returned to the inexplicably low mood before.

Seeing this, Liu Pengzu didn't know what to do, so he could only squat down and look at Liu Sheng's face suspiciously.

I don't know how long it has passed, and finally saw Liu Sheng let out a long sigh leisurely, and then raised his head full of sorrow.

"Before leaving Changle, the emperor's grandmother said that since the emperor's grandfather passed away, the empress dowager did not think about eating and drinking all day long, so she asked me to visit her."

"Unexpectedly, as soon as the emperor's grandmother spoke, someone came to report: the empress dowager fell ill."

"The imperial physicians in the palace are busy, and the emperor's grandmother and father have all gone to the Changxin Hall..."

Said with a mournful tone, Liu Sheng only raised his head in a daze, and looked at his elder brother Liu Pengzu who had straightened up and also looked sad.

"The emperor's grandmother said: The Empress Dowager, I'm afraid she can't bear the sorrow of a white-haired person sending a black-haired person, and she has lost her heart..."

"The Imperial Physician Order also said that Grandmother, it has been a year and a half..."
