Chapter 120 Lost
After all, a five-year-old child has limited acceptance.
There are too many words in the script and he might get confused.
There was no rush for what Emperor Yongping wanted to do.
Therefore, he will educate Chu Chengqi well as he did in the past five years.
Before the time is right, he will not reveal even a little bit of Chu Chengqi's background.
"Okay, I will listen to you, father."
Chu Chengqi's small body was trembling a little.
My feelings towards the Queen are also somewhat complicated.
The queen was not a person who liked children.
After Chu Chengzhao and Chu Chengqi were born, they were always taken care of by wet nurses.
As for whether they have deep feelings for the Queen, that is not necessarily the case.
The reason why Chu Chengqi was shaking was probably more due to fear.
What kind of mother is she who does not prevent others from replacing her child?
Is his biological mother the same as the Queen?
His father didn't want him, and his mother didn't love him either...
......
These things are too complicated for Chu Chengqi.
What Emperor Yongping wanted was to plant a seed of doubt in his young mind.
"Qi'er, remember this matter is between you and me, and you must never tell anyone else.
If your life story gets out and your biological father knows about it, he will probably think you have lost your value. Then both you and your father will be in danger."
After Chu Chengqi calmed down, Emperor Yongping gave him another reminder.
Although Chu Chengqi is young, he is quite reliable.
If he promised not to tell anyone, he would not tell anyone no matter who asked.
I have to say, he really looks like his biological father in this respect.
"Well, rest assured, father, I won't say a word even if you kill me."
Although Chu Chengqi has not yet fully accepted this matter, deep down he hopes that the matter can be kept secret more than Emperor Yongping.
He didn't want to be an illegitimate prince of Sheng'an.
He still wants to grow up well.
After Chu Chengqi left, the study returned to normal order.
Chu Qinshu also returned to the arms of Emperor Yongping.
“Ahh.”
[My Lord, I miss you so much. 】
As soon as Chu Qinshu saw Emperor Yongping, she threw herself into his arms.
Although she was not in Emperor Yongping's arms just now, she was watching him the whole time.
She really wanted to know why Emperor Yongping said those words to Chu Chengqi.
The book clearly described Chu Chengqi's life story, but he only told Chu Chengqi half of it.
Moreover, she was crying while speaking.
Even she, who was familiar with the plot of the original book, was confused.
"Hahaha, the Emperor misses Shu'er too. Has Shu'er eaten yet?"
When he saw Chu Qinshu, Emperor Yongping smiled naturally.
“Ahh.”
[I have eaten and peed, and will go to sleep soon. ]
Chu Qinshu was actually a little confused as she spoke.
However, she still forced herself to stay awake.
“Ahh.”
[Storybook, Shu'er wants to read the storybook written by the Emperor.]
"Shu'er is going to sleep, so the emperor can pat her to sleep, okay?"
Emperor Yongping was not surprised at all that Chu Qinshu knew about his storybook writing.
He himself couldn't even quit that video thing, so how could he make things difficult for his obedient granddaughter?
In fact, he really blamed Chu Qinshu wrongly.
Chu Qinshu usually doesn't watch videos on her own initiative. She will only watch some important videos when Xiao Hulu reminds her.
Most of the time, it was Xiao Hulu who told her after reading it.
“Ahh.”
【not good......】
A baby's sleepiness cannot be resisted just by trying.
Before Emperor Yongping patted her a few times, Chu Qinshu was already breathing heavily and falling into a sound sleep.
Three days later, before Xiaojin.
The drum in front of the Jingzhao government office was struck.
After inquiring, the yamen runner on duty found out that it was Chu Chengzhao, who had been demoted to a commoner, who was missing.
This was no small matter, and the bailiffs were unable to make the decision, so they immediately ran to the Jingzhao Yin Mansion to report the matter.
Jingzhao Yin Zhou Hongjing had already finished his shift and returned home, and at this moment he had just finished working with his concubine.
When he heard that Chu Chengzhao was missing, he was so scared that he fell off the bed.
"Hurry up, change my clothes."
Zhou Hongjing got up and asked the concubine on the bed to help him find clothes.
Damn, the battle was quite intense just now and my clothes were torn to pieces.
After a period of chaos, Zhou Hongjing finally got on his own carriage and headed straight to the Jingzhao Prefecture government office.
After finding out the cause of the incident, all the bailiffs on duty were sent out.
There were those who went to the Five Cities Military Department, those who went to the city gates, and those who went to the gambling houses, pawnshops, and brothels.
In less than an hour, they had swept the area around Chu Chengzhao's house.
Not only is there no clue at all, but it also makes people panic.
Zhou Hongjing was busy until it was almost time to go to court, but he still didn't find any clues.
"Sir, it's time to go to court."
Only after a yamen runner reminded him did Zhou Hongjing reluctantly stand up, change into his official uniform and prepare to go to court.
He knew without even thinking that this morning court session would not be easy.
A demoted prince is still a prince.
If you get lost in his territory, he can't get away from it no matter what.
At the morning court, the court officials reported on the matters under their respective jurisdictions step by step.
Only Zhou Hongjing was distracted from time to time.
"Exit the court~"
Until he heard Lin Fu's penetrating voice, he hadn't figured out what to say about Chu Chengzhao.
"Master Zhou, the court is over, why aren't you leaving yet?"
Matthew Li was almost at the entrance of the hall when he found Zhou Hongjing still standing there motionless, so he asked in confusion.
The daughters of their two families were both in Prince Ning's palace, one as the main concubine and the other as the concubine. Before anything big happened, they were all on the same page.
No one is allowed to make mistakes.
"Oh, Master Ma, please go first."
Zhou Hongjing reacted and quickly collected his thoughts.
This incident caused quite a stir in the city last night, and I'm sure some people who are paying attention have heard about it.
"Master Zhou, you can't figure out things on your own if you can't make up your mind."
Matthew Li looked at Zhou Hongjing's expression and guessed that it was related to what he had heard, so he tentatively gave him a suggestion.
If this is true, how to deal with it will not affect King Ning.
"Hey, Master Ma is right."
Zhou Hongjing didn't say anything after all, but he agreed with Matthew Li's suggestion.
He did not dare to speak at the morning court because he could not figure out the mind of the man on the throne.
After following Matthew Li out of the Qinzheng Hall and saying goodbye to each other, he turned and went to Yu's study.
As soon as Emperor Yongping returned to his study and picked up Chu Qinshu, a eunuch came to report that Jingzhao Yin wanted to see him.
"Xuan."
Emperor Yongping frowned a little, but still let him into the palace.
However, I still feel a little unhappy in my heart.
His precious parenting time is going to be disturbed by this blind person again.
In the past, he liked this Jingzhao Yin very much. He was capable and honest in his official duties.
But after reading the book Chu Qinshu gave him, he no longer liked him.
Clearly, his eldest daughter had already entered Prince Ning's palace as a concubine, but he still wanted to send his youngest daughter to the Crown Prince's palace.
Seeing that Chu Chengyi was injured, he turned his attention to the fourth prince, Prince Rui.
Unfortunately, he only has two legitimate daughters. If he had more, he would have to give one to each prince.
The sound of this abacus was so loud that even Prince Huai who went to Ninggu Pagoda could hear it.
"Lord Zhou, what do you want to say to me in my study?"
Zhou Hongjing performed the greetings but did not explain the matter, so Emperor Yongping had to ask the questions himself.
"In reply to the Emperor, yes..."
Zhou Hongjing seemed to want to say something but stopped.
"Why? You can't let outsiders hear it? If it's a private matter, then don't mention it."
Emperor Yongping showed great impatience.
