Chapter 539: Sever the relationship

Views:

Zhu Houde went to the Dazhu family to explain the whole story. The Dazhu family heard that the girl from the Yuan family was arrested by Fu Cheng. It was really annoying and annoying. The Yuan family is now coming to the door. With his father’s temperament, absolutely It is impossible to be hard on the Yuan family, but to force her to be soft, and the Yuan family is really hard to provoke. Thinking of this, he said to Zhu Houde: "Big brother, you go first, I will tidy up my clothes, and I will come back. There is still blood on this shirt, disrespectful person."

Seeing that there was indeed a little blood on her shoulder, Zhu Houde said: "Okay, hold on tight, father is angry."

After Zhu Houde went out, the big Zhu clan hurriedly took the maid and walked away from the back door.

She would not be this target. The Yuan family came to look for her father today, not her. The father always had a way to settle, whether it was humbling or compromising some requirements, he has always treated the Yuan family like this for so many years, and doesn't care this time.

Zhu Guogong waited outside for a long time. He didn't wait until the big Zhu family came out and asked someone to see him again, only to find that he had already gone. Zhu Guogong's face brushed to the ground, and then he saw Madam Yuan’s angry face. He blushed again in shame, without knowing how to explain it.

Under Mrs. Yuan's stern eyes, he felt at a loss, like a child who had done something wrong could not find a way to apologize and compensate.

Of course, there was his long-term psychological weakness to Mrs. Yuan Lao, but more of it was that when he recalled this matter, it was indeed the Guogong Mansion that had done too much.

Therefore, he could only apologize sincerely, and said that he would pursue the matter and give an explanation to the Yuan Family and A Si.

I thought that Mrs. Yuan would be reluctant and upset, but she did not know that after Mrs. Yuan heard his apology, she rejected the people around her, and also sent all the people from the Guogong Mansion, and then looked at the Guogong. The master sighed softly, "Grandpa Guo, we have been in friendship for decades. I really don’t want to make this trouble to you. To be honest, my old lady can smell the fragrance of the coffin at her age. These kind of grievances and grievances. Yes, in my eyes, I’ve looked down on it. For so many years, I’ve been angry at you many times because of some things, even if it’s a bit of a little thing, I don’t stop having to scold you for a dog-blood sprinkler. Today, Ah Si was wronged. The child was wronged. He knew that life was ugly. It is not worth my troubles. But why should I come and make this mess, do you know?"

Isn't this the confusion in Zhu Guogong's heart

Mrs. Yuan was not such an unreasonable person when she was young, but why did she always stare at him? Over the years, although the two exchanges were not frequent since then, they always made trouble and scolded him for a little incident.

So, he asked back: "Tell me, why is this? The old man is really puzzled."

Mrs. Yuan still had a sullen tone, "Because, when my father-in-law died, he still hated you for iron and steel."

Zhu Guogong's face paled, "This... how come? What is the old general's dissatisfaction with the old man? He didn't say anything before the old man left. Where did you start?"

Mrs. Yuan said coldly: "He never said anything, but he kept his disappointment with you in his heart. You have become famous. He scolded you for not giving you face because of your private grievance with Xiaoyao Gong. How many things have you obstructed these years? Now I ask you, do you really think that the prince’s proposal of an alliance with Da Zhou is beneficial to Beitang or is it a big disadvantage?"

Zhu Guogong was startled slightly, "I haven't really thought about this matter yet."

"You haven't thought about it, but you oppose it, and you insist on opposing it, why?"

Zhu Guogong lowered his head slowly and was silent.

Mrs. Yuan said coldly: "If you really say a few reasons for objection, I am not angry. Everyone has different opinions. The Prince's proposal also has drawbacks. You can object to your opinions and experience. Opinion, but you have no reason. You even think that the prince’s decision is good and beneficial to the long-term stability of my Beitang. In the end, you objected to it. Was it absurd?"

Zhu Guogong's forehead oozes fine beads of sweat. He stretched out his hand and wiped it, but he couldn't explain a word.

Mrs. Yuan continued: "We veterans, for the sake of the northern Tang Dynasty, for the North Tang not to be bullied by North Desert and Xianbei, we almost threw our lives on the battlefield, and we were killed and injured in these battles with North Mo Xianbei. Are there little soldiers? What was our original intention to fight against? What was the reason for their sacrifice? These are not important in your opinion. In your heart, what is important is the private grievance with Xiaoyao Gong, which is even greater than Home country and the world, do you say that my father-in-law would be chilling to you?"

Zhu Guogong finally lowered his head in shame.

"Do you think I'm here for the prince?" Mrs. Yuan continued: "Do you know why this bill is not passed now? The emperor agrees with it, but why did it not pass?"

"Does the emperor agree?" Zhu Guogong was startled for a moment, "has the emperor stated his attitude?"

"The emperor has stated his attitude a long time ago. Otherwise, why let the prince go to Zhang Luo to lobby the minister? I might as well tell you that the cabinet passed this matter, so the implementation of this matter is fixed. But the emperor and the cabinet passed this matter, and you I have been holding an opposing opinion. It was the emperor who slapped you in the face. The emperor delayed, hoping that you can agree and reach a consensus with other officials of the court. This is a military action. He wants to give you this veteran a little face, but What about you? How did you do it? The princess came to treat your wife. You think it came for a motion. You think deeply. Could this motion be blocked by your own power, Zhu Guogong? You are getting older. You should not be capricious, should not let people hold you, chase you to coax, national affairs are major events, bigger than anything else, do you think your daughter Zhu Huai is deliberate and deliberately provoking? But what you do is better than Zhu Even worse, Zhu Huai is purposeful, for her grandson An Wang, how about you? Think about it, Zhu Huai treats kindness as donkey liver and lungs, have you ever been? One more thing, I hope you can If you really listen, what are Zhu Huai and Di Weiming going to do? Are you trying to bury the lives of hundreds of people in your Zhu family for their ambitions?"

Mrs. Yuan left after speaking.

Zhu Guogong stood on the spot in a daze, only feeling ashamed that he climbed up layer by layer, his face turned red and purple, and he felt ashamed, and Mrs. Yuan's last words also awakened him as if it were a thunderstorm.

He entered the study and sat for half an hour. After he came out, he asked Zhu Houde to go to the patriarch and said that he had to sever the father-daughter relationship with the Dazhu clan.

Zhu Houde felt that it was too serious, and said: "Father, it's not that the older sister is really confused, but it's enough to teach you a lesson, there is really no need to break the relationship."

"What do you do with so much nonsense? If you ask you to go, go." Zhu Guogong said angrily.

Zhu Houde knelt down and said sadly: "Father, my mother is still ill. If you break your relationship with your elder sister, wouldn't it break your mother's heart? Never."
