The sixth prince and Concubine Rong, mother and son, met again in the outer courtyard for the first time after a long separation.

The sixth prince was sitting in the outer study. He couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad. He just held the tea bowl and looked at the door expressionlessly.

There was a sound of footsteps, and a woman wearing a curtain hat was surrounded by people walking in. The sixth prince did not get up, and his expression did not even change. Everyone also offered tea with a look, closed the door and left.

Concubine Rong lifted the veil from her hat, letting people see at a glance that she looked extremely haggard. When she saw the Sixth Prince, she had tears in her eyes and said softly: "Lian'er, you have grown so big."

It’s a pity that my mother can’t witness your growth with her own eyes.”

The sixth prince was unmoved and said calmly: "My name is no longer Zhuang Chenglian, but Zhuang Chengrong. Queen Chen, you called the wrong person."

Concubine Rong couldn't help but lowered her head and wiped away her tears, choking and saying, "I know, it's me who has caused you trouble. Mother, I'm sorry for you."

The sixth prince said coldly: "You are my mother, you gave me life, so what if I gave this life to you? I don't deserve your apology, you are really trying to kill me."

Concubine Rong smiled bitterly and said: "I know you resented your mother for abandoning you, and there was really nothing you could do about it at the time. If I didn't leave with King Chen, I'm afraid he would be angry and kill him in even greater pain. Later, you and I parted.

, I am worried about you all the time. Fortunately, God has blessed us and allowed us to have this day where we, mother and son, can reunite."

Hearing this, the Sixth Prince smiled and said: "I am always thinking about reuniting with my mother. Since my mother and son are reunited today, it is God's will. Why don't you follow me back to the court, mother? Don't worry, mother, I have made great achievements some time ago.

Even if I take all the credit, my mother will be safe and I will have the opportunity to fulfill my filial piety."

Concubine Rong suddenly choked up and said reluctantly: "I am satisfied that I can see you in my lifetime, so how dare I hope for you again? Besides, if I really return to Daqi by then, I'm afraid your father will be upset when he sees you, and he will be even more troubled by you."

.”

The Sixth Prince then said: "What's wrong with this? When the time comes, my mother can leave the palace and live in my house, and I can serve her all the time to repay the kindness of raising her."

This was not the purpose of Concubine Rong's coming here. So how could she agree to it? She couldn't help but hesitantly shirk it.

When the Sixth Prince saw this, Ye Tian didn't bother to fight anymore, so he sighed: "I know that Jilai Yufa and his wife are different people. I guess you don't want to be separated from King Chen, so that's it. I can see my mother again in this life, and I am content with that."

. Now I won’t keep you, lest King Chen becomes suspicious and ruin the relationship between you and your husband. As long as you live happily in the future, it can be considered as my filial piety."

Concubine Rong did not expect that the Sixth Prince would dismiss her like this, and she couldn't help but said anxiously: "I am old now, and I still have a few years to live. I know that you are not living a satisfactory life in Daqi, and those people are plotting against you one by one. Why?

Do you think you are a relative? Instead, Chen Anzheng in your hands is closer to you now. I hope you will spare his life for the sake of being a compatriot. Mother hopes to see your two brothers get close to each other in her lifetime. In this way

I can die with peace of mind."

Before the sixth prince finished listening, he had already stood up, threw the tea bowl in front of Concubine Rong, and said angrily: "Why are you always worried about me and can't get back together for my sake? Why can't you just say it clearly: You are here this time.

Are you pleading for Chen Anzheng? Since we are mother and son, if there is anything we can’t say directly, why bother using this roundabout way to deal with people.”

Concubine Rong lowered her head and sobbed: "I'm not pretending to be pretentious. I really think about the debt I've owed you all these years. How can I have the nerve to face you and plead for mercy? Now that the words have been spoken, I have to say something shameless here: You guys

He is a brother after all, I hope you can spare him."

The sixth prince said coldly: "You are my mother. How dare I not listen to what you say? It's just that he and I are our own masters. Mother only wants to save him. Have you ever thought that if I let him go?

How can I explain to my father, how will he let me go?"

Concubine Rong said hurriedly: "You have been a smart child since you were a child. You are your mother's greatest pride. You will definitely be able to come up with good ideas. Besides, you just said that you have made great contributions. I think your father will take this into account."

I won't do anything to you. Now that you are attached to the prince, you should not be too popular. Sometimes some shortcomings are more beneficial. Besides, Zheng'er is your brother after all. If you kill him, how can the prince not worry about himself?

life?"

The Sixth Prince looked at Concubine Rong, with a trace of sarcasm flashing in his eyes, and said with a smile: "If mother cares about me so much, she can think of all these things for me, which shows that she really puts her thought into it."

Concubine Rong's eyes flashed. Ever since she returned to Dongchen, she knew the taboos in King Chen's heart, so she only devoted herself to taking care of the daily life of his father and son. If she dared to mention the word Daqi, she had already put the Sixth Prince in the back of her mind.

, What I just said was just what King Chen taught me when I arrived, and now I just follow the script.

At this time, Concubine Rong could only follow the words of the sixth prince and said: "The palms and backs of the hands are all flesh. Zheng'er is my son, and you are also my son. How can I not care about you? It's just that I am in an embarrassing situation.

My heart is divided into two halves, but it is only hidden in my own heart."

The sixth prince asked again: "Since mother said that the palms and backs of her hands are full of flesh, if today's situation were in a different place, would mother also be pleading for me with such painstaking efforts?"

Concubine Rong shed tears in her eyes and said: "Unless I am dead, how can I see your two brothers killing each other? I just hope that God will open his eyes and let Chen Qi live in peace, otherwise I will be afraid that I will be in trouble for the rest of my life."

Couldn't be happier."

When the Sixth Prince heard this, he couldn't help but laugh so hard that tears came out of his eyes. Concubine Rong's laughter made Concubine Rong's heart fluctuate like a boat floating in the wind and rain.

Finally the Sixth Prince stopped, wiped his tears with his hands, pointed at Concubine Rong and said with a smile: "Let me just say, the more beautiful a woman is, the more vicious her heart is, and the more lies she can do to deceive people.

Not paying for life. It seems that this is true today. Queen Chen, since you said that I have been smart since I was a child, is it really true?

Is it possible to deceive me, who was nine years old, as if I were a three-year-old child? What was it like at that time? Do you no longer remember it because of your old age? You treated me like that back then, but now you dare to say such sweet words with a shameless face. It seems that

I'm just a piece of dirt on the back of your hand, you can throw it away at the critical moment."

Concubine Rong was startled and said in a panic: "Are you saying this to take off my mother's heart? You two are the flesh that fell from your mother's body. There is no reason for her not to feel hurt. Don't believe those people's words.

Instead, you turn your loved ones into enemies.”

The Sixth Prince sighed: "After seeing King Chen, he really regarded me as a three-year-old child. In fact, even when I was only three years old, how could I not know the truth from the false? Even if I didn't know the truth then, I still do it now.

She is her father's son. Every time I see her mother and son getting along, I feel envious and reflect that I was indeed a little stupid back then."

"Not only did you know how you treated me back then, but I also understand it now. You only missed your husband and son in your heart. Every day when the weather was bad, you would make a lot of snacks they liked and pray to the gods secretly.

.I just felt sorry for me at that time, thinking that as long as I made progress, I could make you happy and like me, but I didn’t expect that all my efforts would be in vain in the end.”

Concubine Rong hurriedly shook her head and said, "My child, don't listen to those people's attempts to stir up dissension."

The Sixth Prince waved his hand and said: "Queen Chen, don't think of me as a fool. I can still remember what happened when I was three years old, let alone what happened when I was nine years old. Even an ignorant and stupid person should understand something after such an incident."

It makes sense. I just want to ask you one question, how have you slept peacefully at night over the years? It has never appeared in your dreams. I was so frightened that I cried and begged my mother to save me."

Concubine Rong's face suddenly turned pale and her body trembled slightly. The Sixth Prince looked at her and smiled brightly. What she said made Concubine Rong feel as if she was entangled by a poisonous snake, and her body went cold inside and out: "I will never forget it.

, when I was caught by King Chen and Chen Anzheng came to chop me, I cried desperately and begged you to save me, but you turned your face to the side and let me cry until my voice became hoarse. I looked at the man who was going to kill me.

The knife fell, and I swore in my heart: If I can survive, I must avenge today. I will never beg anyone for mercy or please anyone in this life. If anyone dares to be disrespectful to me in the future, I will let him survive.

I can’t do it without wishing to die.”

The Sixth Prince pointed at Concubine Rong and asked, "When my life was hanging by a thread that day, you didn't say a word and allowed Chen Anzheng to take my life. How can you have the nerve to come in front of me and plead for him today?"

Concubine Rong said in a panic: "No, you are young, you must have remembered it wrong. You are my biological flesh and blood, how could I ignore your life and death? I begged King Chen early in the morning, and later I ignored everything."

I begged over and over again to save your life."

The Sixth Prince sneered: "Of course you have begged for mercy before, otherwise how could I expect you to beg for mercy again? Unfortunately, my life is not worth the words of King Chen: You are destined to be the emperor, how can you stay?"

If you cause this disaster, the lives of my Chen family may not be safe in the future."

Concubine Rong was frightened in her heart. She really didn't expect that the Sixth Prince could actually see things clearly when he was about to lose his soul.

The Sixth Prince added: "If the guards hadn't rushed up to block the knife for me at the critical moment, how could I have survived until the moment when my dear and respectable mother interceded for me?"

Concubine Rong argued forcefully: "Anyway, if I hadn't interceded for you later, do you think you could have survived until the guards came to rescue you?"

The Sixth Prince glared at Concubine Rong and asked word for word: "Then tell me, when you asked King Chen to take me back and slowly inquire about the whereabouts of the treasure on the grounds that I had a treasure, was it for me or for you?

For the treasure?"
