The slightly dilapidated Chen Mansion was hosting a funeral.
Chen Lu’s death completely wiped out the Chen family.
All the servants in the Chen family had sad faces.
It’s gone, everything is gone.
It’s over, it’s all over!
A slave without a master will not have a good end.
Chen Min stayed at the mourning hall to see Lawyer Chen off for the last time.
Very few people came to pay their respects. Most of them sent their butlers to deliver the funeral gifts, light a stick of incense, and then leave.
Chen Min felt sad for Chen Lu.
Life was unhappy, and death is also lonely.
She called out to the servants, "Is the princess here?"
The servant shook his head. "The princess sent someone over and said she wouldn't come. Let the aunt make her own decision."
Chen Min felt both pain and anger in his heart.
At first, she thought Huyang was so sad about Chen Lu's death that he locked himself in the house for several days.
At that time, she was still sighing at the deep love between mother and son and blamed Chen Lu for misunderstanding his mother Hu Yang.
However, after Hu Yang came out of the bedroom, he not only drove all the servants of the Chen family out of the Princess's Mansion, but also forbade the funeral to be held in the Princess's Mansion, saying it was unlucky.
As a last resort, they had to carry the coffin back to Chen's house, set up a new mourning hall, and hold the funeral.
Princess Huyang never showed up from beginning to end, and didn't even look at Chen Lu.
Chen Min was very angry.
Chen Lu is her biological son!
No matter how much dissatisfaction or hatred there is, the dead are greater than the dead. Can't we let it go?
Chen Min couldn't help it, and rushed to the Princess's Mansion angrily to find Hu Yang.
"Mother actually still has the mind for a feast?"
Chen Min looked at the table full of food and wine, as well as the lover serving wine, in disbelief.
She was angry and impulsive, and she overturned the table.
The food and wine were spilled all over the floor.
The lovers fled one after another.
The servants didn't dare to come forward.
"My brother is dead, how can you have the heart to have a feast? Isn't my brother your son?" Chen Min accused Hu Yang of being indifferent and ruthless.
Hu Yang slammed the wine glass in his hand to the ground, "You've grown so powerful that you dared to overturn my wine table. Who gave you the courage?"
Chen Min's tears fell, as if she didn't know Hu Yang. "Brother said you hated him, I never believed it. But now, I believe it. You really hate brother. You must be very happy that he is dead."
Hu Yang's cheek muscles twitched several times in succession, and there was visible anger in his eyes, which grew more and more intense.
"Evil creature! He is an evil creature, he deserves death. If he were alive, I would kill him with my own hands."
Veins bulged on Huyang's forehead, and he was hysterical, looking like a madman.
Chen Min took two steps back, she didn't dare to recognize him.
My brother has changed, has my mother changed too?
She had no idea what had happened.
She burst into tears and asked, "Why? Are you hiding something from me? Why do you hate my brother so much? Isn't he your biological son?"
Hu Yang sneered, "If he wasn't my biological son, he would have been beheaded and thrown into the streets when the Chen family was exterminated. How could he have survived until today?"
Chen Min pointed at herself and said, "What about me? Do you hate me too?"
Hu Yang took a deep breath, trying to calm the rising anger in his heart, "I don't hate you."
Chen Min cried and said, "But my last name is Chen too. My brother and I have the same last name. Do you hate my brother just because he's a boy and has to inherit the Chen family's incense?"
Hu Yang gritted his teeth and said, "Yes! Because his last name is Chen, and because he wants to inherit the Chen family's incense, I hate him. I hate everything about the Chen family. Your father, your grandfather, your grandmother, everyone in the Chen family, I don't like any of them. Only you, my daughter, the only Chen family member I like, only you."
Chen Min shook her head repeatedly, "You lied to me. You don't like me either, you just don't hate me that much."
Hu Yang kicked over the stool angrily. "You're right. I don't like you either. Whenever something happens, you just cry and whine, always asking why. There are no whys. If I don't like you, I don't like you. There's no why. Are you satisfied with this answer?"
Chen Min burst into tears, covered her face and ran away.
The housekeeper stamped his feet anxiously, "What the queen said was too hurtful."
After saying that, he ran out to chase Chen Min.
Hu Yang sighed dejectedly and muttered to himself, "What can I do? You only know how to blame me, but who can I blame? My life has been completely ruined by Old Dog Chen. Old Dog Chen is worse than a beast. He not only ruined me, but also my two children. I just want to dig up his grave and whip his corpse."
The more Hu Yang thought about it, the angrier he became. He could no longer control the devil in his heart.
She gathered her men and went to the Chen family's ancestral tomb to dig out Prince Consort Chen and whip his corpse.
The steward of the Princess's Mansion dared not fail to report this matter, for he was afraid of being blamed.
The Princess's Housekeeper immediately went to the palace to report the situation, saying that Huyang was going to dig up the grave and whip the corpse.
puff!
Emperor Wende spat out a mouthful of tea.
"really?"
"Your Majesty, I dare not lie to you. This is absolutely true. I implore Your Majesty to send someone to stop Princess Huyang. Do not dig up her grave and whip her corpse! You will be cursed by the world."
Emperor Wende said solemnly, "I know about this matter and I will deal with it. You may withdraw first."
The Princess's Household had no choice but to leave Xingqing Palace.
Emperor Wende said to Chang En, "Huyang is as impulsive as ever, even thinking of digging up a grave and whipping a corpse. Although I would like to do the same, I must also consider the public's criticism. I don't want to be condemned as a chicken-hearted person in future history books."
Chang En asked, "Should we send someone to stop Princess Huyang?"
Emperor Wende sighed, "Send someone to stop him. The traitor surnamed Chen has been dead for so many years. Digging up his grave and whipping his corpse at this time, no matter what the reason, will make Huyang a target of public criticism."
"I obey your command!"
Chang En was afraid that ordinary people could not stop Hu Yang, so he simply asked his godson, Eunuch Xiao Wu, to lead people. He also notified the Jinwu Guards and sent someone to notify Gu Jiu.
…
Gu Jiu, who lives in Xiaozhu, is playing with Niu Niu and Ge'er.
The two children are over one year old. They can walk, run, call people, and express their thoughts in simple terms.
However, the two children love to fight.
It was always Niu Niu who bullied her younger brother, Ge'er, and she would often slap Ge'er in the face when he was least prepared.
Brother Wen burst into tears and threw himself into Gu Jiu's arms, saying aggrievedly, "She hit me, hit me...sister..."
Gu Jiu was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and picked up Brother Xun.
He's so young, yet he already knows how to complain.
She pinched the child's tender cheeks and wiped away her tears, "Did your sister hit you?"
Brother Hen sobbed and nodded, "He hit me..."
"It's wrong for my sister to hit someone. Mother, please ask her to apologize, okay?"
Brother Xun didn't cry as sadly anymore, and even felt a little expectant.
"Niuniu, come here and apologize to your brother. Hitting someone is wrong."
Niu Niu was a stubborn person. She stood there motionless, looking at the sobbing Ge'er, and felt more and more aggrieved.
Finally, Niu Niu started crying too.
Gu Jiu couldn't help laughing and pinched her daughter's cheek, "Why are you crying? No one hit you. Mother just asked you to apologize to your brother, and you cried."
The two children seemed to be competing to see who could cry louder, each crying louder than the other.
Niu Niu cried loudly, feeling so aggrieved, as if she was the one being beaten and it was Ge'er who was beating her.
Brother Xun also felt wronged.
It was clearly him who was beaten, so why did the one who beat him still have the nerve to cry?
The two children cried so loudly that the roof was almost blown off.
Gu Jiu was overwhelmed and had no idea what to do.
They had no choice but to ask the wet nurse and maids to separate the two children and coax them separately.
There was finally some peace and quiet in his ears, and Gu Jiu suddenly felt like he was alive again.
It’s not easy!
Children are a combination of devil and angel.
When being well-behaved, you can be as cute as you can be.
It’s a pity that their cuteness will not last more than three minutes before their devilish side is revealed, making adults furious in no time.
Having a child is not easy, raising a child is even harder.
Gu Jiu wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was sweating after taking care of two children.
The doorman came to report that someone had come from the palace.
Upon learning that Huyang had gathered his men and was heading to the Chen family's ancestral tomb to dig up Prince Consort Chen's grave and whip his corpse, Gu Jiu was so upset that he started coughing every year.
After coughing for a while, he finally caught his breath. "What on earth could have provoked Princess Huyang to think of digging up a grave and whipping a corpse?"
"The princess had a quarrel with Chen Min and suddenly decided to dig up the grave and whip the corpse."
This is ridiculous!
"What does your Majesty say?"
"Your Majesty has already sent people to intercept Princess Huyang halfway."
"Since Your Majesty has already sent someone, why did you ask me to come forward?"
The visitor said, "Eunuch Chang was worried that the people he sent would not be able to stop Princess Huyang, so he specifically asked Madam to come forward. In this world, Madam is the only one who can persuade Princess Huyang."
Gu Jiu said, "I don't have the ability to persuade Princess Huyang. Chang En is afraid of taking responsibility, so he asked me to intervene. You go back and tell him that I will not intervene in this matter. However, I will inform His Highness. As for whether His Highness will intervene, I cannot guarantee it."
The visitor had no choice but to return to the palace to report.
Gu Jiu sent someone to inform Liu Zhao.
It is not necessary to use words to persuade Princess Huyang.
Force can also be used to persuade.
The Chen family's ancestral tomb is quite far away from the capital.
Gu Jiu was unwilling to travel so far just to persuade Hu Yang not to dig up the grave and whip the corpse.
Damn it, how much of a shock was Hu Yang getting or is he just out of his mind? Prince Consort Chen has been dead for so many years, yet he still goes to dig up the grave and whip the corpse.
The Liu family is indeed full of lunatics.
The madness in the genes is passed down from generation to generation.
But she couldn't turn a blind eye to this matter.
Therefore, he thought of a compromise and let Liu Zhao take charge of it.
