56 Crying poor

Prince Xiang Tiange left in a panic, and Princess Xiang Ling and others also said goodbye and left first.

Li Yu was full of thoughts, and Chu Tianxiu was confused and took Di'er and Zuer to the direction of the Golden Palace banquet.

Soon, another group of ministers came from behind.

Among the crowd were royal relatives, the father and son of the Shen family, the most powerful merchant in Jinling. Both of them were dressed in coarse cloth clothes and cloth shoes, just like the dress of a farm father and son.

If the Shen family hadn't been too famous, the imperial guards at the palace gate recognized it, they might not have even been able to enter the palace gate.

The princes and ministers walking on the palace road were all very surprised and moved when they saw the common people dressed in coarse cloth clothes of Shen’s father and son.

This palace feast on the first day of the first lunar month, the princes and princes were all dressed brightly, wearing gold and silver, and were extremely luxurious. No one wanted to feel embarrassed at all.

Empress Dowager Chen’s younger brother Shen Dafu and nephew Chen Wanbao are dressed so poorly. What shocking is this?

"Brother Chen, why did you get here?"

"What's wrong with Chen Mansion? You can't afford a set of Chinese clothes?"

Some ministers asked in surprise.

"Oh, my Shen family is in a downfall and poor!"

Shen Dafu looked bitter and sighed.

As for whom he was cheated, he didn't say anything.

Only by keeping a secret can the princes, princes, princes, and ministers and ministers be curious. When he saw Queen Mother Chen, he cried fiercely, which caused the ministers to strongly attack the Hunhou Mansion.

"Uncle Guo, Brother Shen, what's wrong with you?"

Chu Tianxiu was also surprised when she saw Shen Dafu and Shen Wanbao's appearance.

Some time ago, both Shen and his son were extremely generous, and they didn't blink!

In just a few days, the father and son became civilian commoners. What is the reason for this?

"Oh, my Shen family is too poor now, it's really hard to describe!"

Chen Wanbao had a bitter face.

But under his nose, he was proud.

He was still waiting, and his father complained about the empress dowager's mansion in front of the empress dowager and raised his head and proudly.

...

Soon, Li Yu, Chu Tianxiu and his wife, Shen and his son arrived at the Golden Palace.

The palace banquet on the first day of the first lunar month was held in the magnificent and huge Golden Palace. It was just early until noon and people had not arrived yet, so the banquet was not held so early.

Queen Mother Chen has arrived.

The old lady in her 70s with white hair and kind eyebrows were sitting at the head of the feast, receiving greetings from the princess, princesses, and noble ladies of the court. She was surrounded by them and chatting.

The Shen family father and son hurriedly squeezed into the front of the crowd, about to pay homage to Queen Mother Chen.

Suddenly, cries came from the crowd, and both of them were stunned.

I saw an old beggar wearing a tattered rag, covered in patches and ragged sackcloth, and haggard face, bowing to Empress Dowager Shen, crying loudly.

The crying is sadness, which makes people cry when they hear it, and feel sad.

A group of princesses, princesses and ladies around were holding juanpa in their hands and wiping their tears. It was obvious that they were moved by the beggar's tragic cry.

"Can beggars enter the palace?"

Shen Dafu was shocked and looked carefully. It was the old Hun Hou Chu Yong.

He suddenly became extremely alert.

What are the old man Chu Yong, wearing a beggar's uniform, kneeling in front of Empress Dowager Shen?

"Empress Dowager, my husband's mansion is so hard! I washed and washed this outfit, put on it, and repaired it. I haven't eaten for two days. In the morning, I drank a bowl of porridge to make my stomach. I came to see the Queen Mother."

Lao Hunhou crawled on the ground, crying with a hoarse voice.

"Old Hunhou, why is this?"

Empress Dowager Chen's eyes were slightly red, and she sighed: "The Ai family still remembers how glorious the Hunhou Mansion was when the old man and Hunhou Mansion was. At that time, no woman from Jinling City wanted to marry into the Hunhou Mansion. It's only been so many years... that she couldn't get rid of the blame."

Looking back on the past, she still remembers it fresh.

At that time, she was still a young and ignorant civilian palace maid. She was envious and fascinated by the rumors about the Hunhou Mansion.

She once followed her master out of the palace to attend the sensational wedding of the Hunhou Mansion.

Following the master sitting in front, she only glanced at the old man Hunhou. Her handsome and supreme posture was simply amazing.

At that glance, she seemed to be spinning like a dream and a illusion... She never forgot her peerless and gorgeous face in this life.

The princesses, princesses, and the top ten families in Jinling, who doesn’t dream of marrying into the Hunhou Mansion?!

The second-class official family is not afraid to think about it too much. Because the threshold for one's own family is too low, it is impossible to climb up to the Hunhou Mansion.

Later, she was drunk by the old emperor and gave birth to the prince Xiang Yanran... and was involved in the palace internal strife and had no time to take care of it.

She was cautious and took the young prince to survive one palace battle after another and a chaotic chaos in the palace, and changed her horses and lights, and endured one queen and prince after another to death. Finally, Xiang Yanran ascended the throne and became emperor.

The national affairs of the Great Chu Dynasty, which had been chaotic for several dynasties, finally stabilized.

Some time ago, Prince Ping's Mansion entered the palace to sue the Hunhou Mansion, saying that Lao Hunhou owed 100,000 taels of silver and did not pay it back.

Ping Wang Li Rong was the emperor's sworn brother. He was born and died on the battlefield and saved the emperor from the encirclement of the Huns with hundreds of lives. How could the emperor bear it?

The emperor was furious and wanted to take over the title of the Hunhou Mansion.

She tried hard to persuade the emperor to calm his anger and let Xiaohunhou marry into the Prince Ping's Mansion to offset the huge debt.

But I never thought that the Hunhou Mansion was still so depressed that it was so poor.

"Where are the money you borrowed?"

Empress Chen said in confusion.

"Empress Dowager, you know too! Emperor Taizu gave me the title of Hun Marquis of Chu family, and Hun Marquis of all dynasties have followed the orders of Emperor Taizu."

"The little Hunhou was his grandfather, and the old Hunhou was raised by himself.

The old Hunhou always praises his grandson, saying that he is talented and is the most outstanding Hunhou in my Hunhou family in history, and must be trained well.

Xiaohunhou was spoiled since childhood and could not bear any grievances.

When he slaughtered a sheep, he only ate a bite of the meat of the sheep's heart, and spit out the rest. He only ate the tenderest leaf of each vegetable in acre of vegetables, and he didn't want the rest. Almost all the expenses of the Hunhou Mansion were spent on him."

"I am a father, it's so hard!"

"But, for the sake of the child, I would rather suffer myself than let the child suffer any pain. Even if I, the Marquis, wear patches, go out to beg for food, and ask for money everywhere, and owe a huge debt that I can't finish in my life, I can't let Xiaohunhou down!

When Xiao Hunhou was at home, there was a feast in the mansion. Since he went to Pingwang Mansion, my Hunhou Mansion has been filled with porridge and cold water every day, saving money and spending less time on the rest of his life, and saving every penny to pay off his debts."

The old man Chu Yong crawled at Empress Dowager Shen's feet, tilted his face, and his two lines of old tears flowed through the vicissitudes of life.

All the ladies were sad and crying when they heard this. Lao Hunhou was so great! This is a great fatherly love that is brave enough to take responsibility.

When Chu Tianxiu heard the familiar crying, she couldn't help but put her feet on the outermost part of the crowd and looked inside curiously.

Many princesses, princesses and ladies found that Xiao Hunhou had also come, and they couldn't help but look back at Chu Tianxiu.

Look, Xiao Hunhou's clothes are decorated with a gorgeous coat, a jade belt, and a jade pendant, and a few of them are worth thousands of taels.

Seeing his rosy complexion, red lips and white teeth, like a gentle jade, and his appearance as a gentle prince, how good he could raise it! Without a lot of money, he could raise it so well.

Look, Lao Hunhou, the beggar covered in patches, looked like a few copper clothes. He looked pale and haggard, as if he was about to faint from hunger, and could not even afford to drink porridge.

The Hunhou Mansion was defeated, and it must be that all the money was thrown on the Xiao Hunhou.

Lao Hunhou’s words are really true!

They finally knew how deep the fatherly love of Lao Hunhou was. Xiao Hunhou enjoyed the greatest fatherly love in this world.

Even Li Yu couldn't help but look back at Chu Tianxiu. It turned out that most of the credit was the old Hunhou.

Chu Tianxiu was shocked and couldn't help but touch his face.

Can you blame myself for your good face?

Dad, you haven't eaten for a few days and are you so hungry. Is there anyone who cheated your son like this?

The Hunhou Mansion has been in decline for several generations. The money you spent in Hunhou for several generations is similar to that of the little Hunhou. Why did I take the blame alone?

Shen Dafu and Shen Wanbao, father and son were both stunned.

Look at the miserable appearance of Lao Hunhou's patched beggar's clothes.
