Chapter 163

The old prince and the palace were having a bad time, and he didn't want to go back to Xingrong Street.He ran out for a walk alone, the night was dark, East Street began to light lanterns, hawkers, bargainers, children acting like a baby to their parents, wife angry at her husband, all kinds of voices gathered together, the old prince stood alone on the street Staring blankly at their lives, he suddenly became irritable, turned around and walked out of East Street.

But out of East Street is Qianmen Street. Although it is not as lively as East Street, it is still very lively before the closing time of Fangshi. inside.

He didn't want to go back to Xingrong Street. Although Mrs. Xu was gentle, she loved to cry, and every sentence was full of calculations. It was okay before, and he didn't feel very tired, but now he was a little tired of coping, and he hated that kind of life.Ren Lang didn't seek to make progress, he created so many opportunities for him, but they only complained that they didn't get the power of the Pingnan Palace, how did they know that they also got what the boss didn't have.

Those friendships, those old friends, he brazenly pulled Ren Lang to meet them, but he was just asking him to be more successful, at least let the old princess know that Ren Lang is worthy of being his son, he will be successful, he will make the old princess regret letting Ren Lang go. Lang rushed out, but the old prince's expression froze for a moment.

He had to admit that Ren Lang was indeed inferior to the boss and the second child. With such a good opportunity, he could still make his old friends hate him, that is, the most bluffing fourth child. When my friend talked about him, he also got a compliment for being good at fighting. Why didn't Ren Lang live up to it?

He can't go back to the Pingnan Palace. The boss said that the second and fourth children directly ignored him. When the fourth child saw him in the palace, he would turn around and leave. The old prince didn't have the confidence to make the second child agree with him. , and the boss, under the insistence of the old princess, shouldn't be on his side, right?

As he got older, he thought more, and the days of high spirits only existed in his memories.

The old prince drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, got up and went downstairs.

He is going back, Mrs. Xu and the others should be waiting impatiently, right?
Mrs. Xu was really anxious, and sent people out to check frequently. Seeing the old prince walking in with his hands behind his back, he breathed a sigh of relief, and greeted him with a big smile, "The master is back, Lang'er, hurry up and give it to you." Daddy pour a cup of tea."

The old prince doesn't like others to call him old, but Mrs. Xu really wants to call him a prince, but the old prince still has a little sense of shame, so people call him master, but when he leaves this mansion, people outside still call him His old prince.

The old prince, he has been the old prince since he was 42 years old, and he has been the old prince for nearly 20 years.

"Master, what does the old concubine say?" Xu asked a little anxiously.

The old prince didn't hide from her, and said: "She doesn't agree."

Seeing that he had nothing to say, Mrs. Xu said anxiously: "Then the master agrees? Master, it's not that I insist on the separation of the palace, but Lang'er only lived in the palace when she was a baby. Now Lang'er and Lang'er-in-law When we went out to socialize, people asked which Ren family it was, and they said it was the Pingnan Palace or not, and they said it was not and it was not. The people outside were all watching the joke. Now our grandson is twelve, and we will say it in a few years Kiss, what will you say then? I was already very sorry for Lang'er's daughter-in-law when I mentioned it."

The old prince snorted coldly, "It's just that one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. What is there to be wronged?"

The expression on the face of the third wife next to him froze for a moment, but Mrs. Xu had already cultivated well. The most important thing was that she had long been accustomed to the old prince's way of speaking, and said with an unchanged expression: "Then what does the master say now? Do you want to separate the family? If not, Lang'er and Lang'er's daughter-in-law will have to act in the name of the prince's younger brother outside, and the old concubine will be even more angry."

The old prince said indifferently: "I have already told her that it must be divided. Let's see in a few days. If she still doesn't agree, I will go to the palace to talk to the emperor and ask the clan to help divide it."

Mrs. Xu was stunned, and quickly waved her hand and said: "My lord, it's just a separation. There's no need to disturb the emperor and the clan. We just have to talk to the old concubine. The old concubine loves the prince the most, and I might not bear to have him caught in the middle." of."

The old prince became irritable, got up and said: "You are the one who said the share, and now you are the one who said that you can't find the emperor. What are you going to do? You expect the boss to persuade her? Are you daydreaming? Although the boss is a bit too honest, but in the end Listening to her words, he will be in a difficult situation no matter how hard he thinks, so why should she have any scruples? In short, it's settled, and I will send someone to ask again in two days, if it doesn't work, I will go to the palace to find the emperor. "

Xu's face was a little pale, she really didn't expect the matter to become such a big mess, in her opinion, as long as the rumors about King Pingnan's harsh concubine were released outside, everything would be settled, so why go to the emperor?Of course, she only dared to think about this in her heart, and dared not say it to the old prince.

The emperor is the son-in-law of the old concubine, and of course it belongs to the old prince. Because the matter of the prince comes first, the emperor is very likely to be right on both sides, but the emperor is famous for his love for Ren Wuyun. Bad luck.

Moreover, Lang'er has such an impression in front of the emperor, can he still be an official in the future?Will it affect my grandson?

Xu was full of thoughts for a moment.

But she really can't help it, her dowry is too much, but it's almost spent in the past few decades, and the palace allocates a certain amount of money every year, specifying that it's for the old prince, and the money is for their family's rich A wealthy life is more than enough for one year, but the old prince has been obsessed with various collections since he abdicated, and the money he spends is only more, not the most.Now she has managed to go alone to buy an official position for Lang'er. If she can't get money next month, such a good opportunity will be wasted.

Xu couldn't make up his mind for a moment.It's just that Mrs. Xu has always been decisive. After one night, she gritted her teeth and went to persuade the old prince not to separate the family. They don't mind living in embarrassment.Rather than being disgusted by the emperor, it is better to give up the opportunity in front of him. Although such an opportunity is rare, it is not impossible, but once he is disgusted by the emperor, it will be difficult for Lang'er to succeed in his life.

The old prince glanced at Xu Shi, who had a pleasing eyebrow, and the stagnant movements of his hands continued to flow smoothly.The old prince scrubbed his weapon carefully, and said lightly: "Then you can tell the old princess yourself."

Xu looked at the old prince in shock. The old prince would never say such things to her.

Others don't know, but the old prince should know that because of the empress, the old princess got angry and almost killed her with a whip. She was always afraid of seeing the old princess. How could the old prince say such exaggerated words to her?

The old prince put his weapon away, stared at Xu and said, "I am your husband, my god, I am not instructing you to do things. It is not a man who turns back his promise. I have already said that I want to separate the family." , then we must separate.”

Xu's words that she wanted to beg for mercy were suddenly speechless. If she hadn't always been rational, she would almost raise her eyebrows and laugh at the other party, turning back on her promise?Isn't this man the best at this?Sure enough, Grandma was right, the most untrustworthy thing in this world is a man.

Mrs. Xu quietly watched the old prince walk away, intending to wait for him to calm down before comforting him. In this world, no one knows this man better than her, even the old princess. She knows how to do what he will He won't remember what changed his behavior if it wasn't a man who turned his back on what he said after today.

Xu turned around and calmly dealt with the affairs of the mansion.

It is true that the old prince may not remember what he said today tomorrow, but he will definitely remember what he said in the morning today.Mrs. Xu must have never imagined that the old prince would suddenly become angry while walking, and then rushed into the palace to meet the emperor in a rage.

At that time, Ren Wuyun was pestering the emperor to give him a piece of calligraphy written by a calligrapher in the previous dynasty.

The emperor stared at him in surprise and said, "Since when did you dislike weapons and prefer calligraphy? Could it be that getting married really has such power?"

In the past when Ren Wuyun was in the Jinwu Guard, he used to fish for three days and spend two days drying the nets. The Jin Wu Guard is the backbone of protecting the palace. The emperor originally wanted to train Ren Wuyun to be the second in command of the Jin Wu Guard, so that he could feel more at ease, but Ren Wuyun was only thinking about going to the front line, and was not interested in guarding the gate at all. Fortunately, he was an adjutant, and there were several adjutants under the chief officer, and the division of his work among several adjutants did not increase his workload much.

The chief and adjutants who guessed the emperor's plan not only didn't blame Ren Wuyun, but were even happier seeing him showing no interest. You must know that the Jinwu Guard is very popular, not to mention Ren Wuyun's work ability, his backstage will be dumped first. Everyone is a few blocks away, and no one likes a strong competitor (except lunatics).

But since Ren Wuyun's marriage leave is over, he can go to work on time every day, and of course, he will also go to office on time.Seeing his progress, the emperor was naturally happy to see his success, but now hearing that he wanted to ask for a letter, he felt a little horrified.Is this too much change?
Ren Wuyun said with a smile: "The emperor's brother-in-law, you can give it to me, it's useless for you to keep it anyway."

The emperor said with a stern face: "Why don't you tell me what you took it for rest and took one thing from me. Do you know how many good books you tore up with me when you were young to draw good characters? Now that you grow up, you still want to harm They don't work?"

Ren Wuyun touched his nose and said: "I didn't use it for myself. My brother-in-law likes to collect these things. Didn't the ancestors say that calligraphy and painting are not separated from each other? I can't find good paintings for the time being, but I remember that my brother-in-law has a few good ones here." .”

The emperor twitched his lips, how many more?

The emperor waved his hand and said: "Let Eunuch Wei take you to get it later, only that one is allowed, if you dare to take more, you will not be allowed to enter the palace within a month."

Ren Wuyun muttered "Stingy", the emperor heard it and was about to throw him with a wrinkle on the desk, when a little eunuch outside reported that the old prince was coming.
