Chapter 554 Innocent

Do you want to make yourself sound so pitiful...

If this happened to someone else, Shen Wan would feel extremely sympathetic, but when Prince Yuzhang said this, Shen Wan had to force himself not to laugh out loud.

The emperor's face was filled with black lines. "Why did your father hit you this time?"

It would have been fine if the emperor didn't ask, but when he did, Prince Yuzhang felt even more aggrieved.

After all, this was the only beating I received innocently in my life.

Um.

This time he is truly innocent.

Half a month ago, Wei Mingzhu fainted and was found to be pregnant. The Prince of Yuzhang was almost beaten to death by the wife of Prince Teng because of the imperial physician's words "excessive indulgence in sexual activity has led to miscarriage".

The family status, which was not high to begin with, suddenly plummeted to the point where everyone hated them.

The Prince of Yuzhang had been behaving himself for half a month, but today he was beaten badly because Wei Mingzhu cried.

Other people suffer from morning sickness and sleepiness when they are pregnant, but Wei Mingzhu does not suffer from morning sickness or sleepiness when she is pregnant. However, she feels sad and cries at the slightest provocation.

The leaves fell and she cried.

The two baby birds were in the nest, and she was crying.

Even if the moon was not round, she would cry and ask him to fill it up.

Prince of Yuzhang, “…”

I don’t have that ability.

Normally, no one saw her wiping away her tears, but today, by coincidence, his mother saw her and asked her why she was crying.

Wei Mingzhu said aggrievedly, "Mother, can I not take a concubine for the prince..."

God have mercy on him, the Prince of Yuzhang had never thought about taking a concubine. Who knew why Wei Mingzhu would think about it? Not only did she think about it, but she also cried so aggrievedly.

Princess Teng subconsciously thought that her son was going to take a concubine. She was so angry. He threw Wei Mingzhu into the lotus pond, and then shamelessly wanted to marry her back. After finally marrying her, he didn't know how to cherish her. When Wei Mingzhu was pregnant, he made trouble and wanted to take a concubine...

If she agreed, she would be too ashamed to face the wife of Duke Weiguo. If the news got out, she would be drowned in spit from everyone.

Princess Teng comforted Wei Mingzhu, and then went to complain to Prince Teng. Prince Yuzhang finished drinking with Chu Yang and others outside the mansion, and returned home contentedly, only to be beaten again.

I have no idea why I was beaten...

The feather duster broke and Prince Teng threw it heavily to the ground, "If you dare to take a concubine, I will break your legs!"

The Prince of Yuzhang reflected for a long time and thought that his father had beaten Wei Mingzhu because of his excessive indulgence in sex, which caused her to have a miscarriage. But it turned out to be because of his concubine...

Prince Yuzhang was immediately dissatisfied, "When did I say I wanted to take a concubine?!"

He hadn't even thought about it.

Although it is normal for men to have three wives and four concubines, none of their brothers have concubines. Can he set this precedent?

Prince Teng said, "If you hadn't been clamoring to take a concubine, would Mingzhu have cried so miserably?"

Prince Yuzhang lost his temper and said, "The moon was not full last night, and Mingzhu blamed me."

Prince Teng, “…”

Princess Teng, “…”

When Princess Teng thought that Prince Yuzhang wanted to take a concubine, Wei Mingzhu helped Prince Yuzhang explain that he had not mentioned this matter and that she had thought of it herself. However, Princess Teng did not believe it and thought that Wei Mingzhu was covering it up for him because she was afraid that she and Prince Teng would beat Prince Yuzhang.

Is it possible that he really didn’t say that?

Knowing that Wei Mingzhu cried easily, Princess Teng was worried and asked someone to invite the imperial physician into the palace.

Princess Teng asked the imperial physician what was going on. The physician replied, "Princess Jun's condition is recorded in medical books. She will be fine once the baby is born."

"When a woman is pregnant, anything outrageous can happen, even those who like the smell of a pigpen."

Prince Yuzhang originally felt that he was unlucky, but after hearing what the imperial physician said, he immediately felt relieved.

At least Wei Mingzhu didn't drag him to the pigpen to smell the smell in the middle of the night...

It turns out that there is no comfort without comparison.

After the imperial physician left, Wei Mingzhu cried and apologized to him, "I'm sorry..."

Prince Yuzhang held his arm in a sling and said, "It's okay, I'm used to it."

It's just a beating.

It's a common occurrence.

but--

Prince Yuzhang asked, "Why are you crying today? And why are you talking to mother about taking a concubine?"

Then Prince Yuzhang knew why he was beaten.

Since Wei Mingzhu was pregnant, she could not wander around the streets casually. The maid told her about the interesting things that happened in Kyoto. Today, the concubine of the eldest son of Li Yushi's mansion gave birth to a son. Upon hearing this, Wei Mingzhu's mind was distracted. Coming from a prominent family, Wei Mingzhu naturally knew that when a woman was pregnant, she could not serve her husband and had to take a concubine for him.

No woman would be willing to do such a thing, and Wei Mingzhu didn't want to either. She thought that if she took a concubine for the Prince of Yuzhang, the Prince of Yuzhang would go to the concubine's room and not come to her anymore, and even protect the concubine...

Wei Mingzhu couldn't stop crying.

Princess Teng asked her what was wrong. She didn't think about whether she would get a fight with Prince Yuzhang, so she said, "Mother, can I not let the prince take a concubine..."

The Prince of Yuzhang was happy, helpless, and truly in pain.

Not only was he hurt by the beating from his father, but he also bumped into the door while trying to dodge.

It just so happened that Chu Yang and Zhao Ang climbed over the wall to find him. When they learned the reason why he was beaten, they both wanted to laugh and felt sympathy.

In fact, these days, thanks to Prince Yuzhang, their lives are not easy.

They used to be able to sleep in bed, but now they are not even allowed to sleep in bed, for fear that they can't control themselves. But at this age when they are full of vigor, it is really hard to endure it.

Xie Jingyu is still the best. After going to the border, he has nothing to worry about.

The three of them hit it off and decided to go to the battlefield.

A good man should go to the battlefield and make achievements.

However, Chu Yang and Zhao Ang could not enter the palace without being summoned, so Prince Yuzhang had to go to the palace to ask for permission with bruises on his face and a dislocated and sprained arm in a sling.

Fearing that the emperor would not agree, Prince Yuzhang looked at Chen Wan pleadingly, asking Chen Wan to say a few good words for them.

Prince Yuzhang said, "We can go to the battlefield and fight alongside Brother Jingyu."

Xie Jingyu was not at the border and could not fight side by side.

They have the ambition to achieve great things and defend their country. More importantly, they are not as unreliable as they seem, otherwise Xie Jingyu would not dare to entrust them with some important tasks.

The emperor said, "Alright."

Prince Yuzhang was immediately delighted and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your permission."

He ran away happily.

After running out of the imperial study, he came back and said, "Cousin, don't forget to write a letter home. We will take it to Brother Jingyu."

Shen Wan, “…”

It seems that Prince Yuzhang and others did not know that Xie Jingyu went to Dongliang.

Shen Wan did not write a letter home to Xie Jingyu, but she wrote one to her father.

Prince Yuzhang was unaware of the situation and when he saw that there was no letter from Xie Jingyu, he thought that Shen Wan was still angry with Xie Jingyu because she was pregnant again. Even they wanted to beat Xie Jingyu, let alone Shen Wan.

I had originally wanted to drink at the wedding of Young Master Ling and Miss Pei San, and then go to the border after the No. 1 Restaurant under the Heaven opened. However, due to the death of the Empress Dowager and the ban on music in Kyoto, these things had to be postponed.

The Prince of Yuzhang handed over the opening of Tianxia Diyi Lou to Yun Yan, and then they rushed to the border at full speed.

When they arrived at the border, Chen Li was delighted and asked people to prepare fine wine and delicious food to welcome them. But then, thinking of Xie Jingyu's previous experience, he became a little worried. "You guys didn't run away even though I prepared a welcome party for you, did you?"

Prince Yuzhang asked, "Why are you running? Who ran away?"

"My brother-in-law."

"He had been in the military camp for less than half an hour and disappeared."

The corner of Prince Yuzhang's mouth twitched, "Are you saying that Brother Jingyu is not in the barracks?"

"I've been here, but I'm not here."

“…”

"His legs are really worth the effort. He can really run."

“…”

Prince Yuzhang and his men stayed at the border for half a month and then ran away.

They sneaked into the Dongliang military camp and tried to burn the food and grass.

After hearing about what happened recently in Dongliang Kyoto, based on our many years of brotherhood, he strongly suspected that it was Xie Jingyu's work.

Xie Jingyu's trip to Dongliang to stir up trouble is much more interesting than fighting at the border.

The three of them discussed it together.

Go find Xie Jingyu.

After all, the art of disguise cannot be learned in vain.
