Chapter 231 The Emperor’s First Love
The misunderstanding, not conflict, the emperor said had saved them face.
After returning yesterday, Chu Yifeng had already told Princess Huiyue about the seriousness of the matter, which was why she was so cautious. After hearing the words of Emperor Daxia, she felt relieved and knew that the other party was not angry with her.
"It's all because Huiyue doesn't know how to measure and doesn't know how to advance or retreat. She made the Crown Princess unhappy when she first arrived in Daxia. Huiyue is willing to admit her mistakes and accept the punishment..."
Princess Huiyue's attitude has indeed improved a lot.
Chu Yifeng also helped to plead guilty: "This is the first time for the princess to go out. The villain did not take good care of her and did not warn her in advance, which almost caused a catastrophe. Please forgive me..."
After saying that, he knelt down again.
When the emperor saw that he had lowered his posture like this, he did not continue to embarrass himself.
"Get up, there was a misunderstanding."
After Chu Yifeng got up, he presented the gift he specially brought.
The emperor asked Eunuch Huang to put it away first, and then asked: "What do you have to do when you come here this time?"
When Chu Yifeng heard this, he said respectfully: "When I return to the emperor, this time it is for the villain's private affairs..."
"Your private matter? You can actually work for the King of England's apple. It seems that this private matter is not trivial." The emperor said casually.
Princess Huiyue, who had always restrained herself, couldn't control her nature, so she said: "Actually, I ran out secretly. Father and the others know that there is nothing they can do..."
The emperor picked up a letter from the table and said: "This letter arrived yesterday evening. It was written by your Emperor of the Western Qin Dynasty. He rushed to deliver it, saying that the beloved daughter of the King of England ran away without permission. Please take care of her." "
Not only did Princess Huiyue not feel embarrassed, she also felt that it was a matter of pride for herself.
"Uncle the Emperor and my father did not allow me to come out, so I had to sneak away. These days, I have caused trouble to the Emperor."
She slowly released her true nature, and Wang? next to her became nervous.
What happened in the court today was still vivid in his mind.
This Princess Huiyue is the origin of everything.
"First tell me what private matters you want to do when you come here this time." The emperor did not answer Huiyue's words.
Chu Yifeng answered respectfully again: "The villain brought my mother's token to ask for an audience with the eldest princess..."
When the emperor heard this, he was stunned. Seeing the emperor's sister?
Wang? was also a little surprised. When they reported to him yesterday, they didn't mention this matter.
And if they want to see the eldest princess, they can go directly to the eldest princess's mansion. Why come here if they have any tokens.
But he immediately figured it out. After what happened and alarmed the imperial court, it would be unreasonable for them not to come and pay homage to the emperor.
"Who is your mother?" The emperor was quite curious.
Since the token is mentioned, it must be the eldest princess’s old friend.
Chu Yifeng's reply caught the emperor by surprise.
"The villain's mother's surname is Lin and her name is Churui."
Even Wang? was surprised: "Lin Churui?"
This name was unknown to everyone in Kyoto back then. Everyone in Kyoto knew that she was the most talented woman in Kyoto and the person that countless people in Kyoto dreamed of marrying.
Back then, the Lin family was as famous as the Wang family, and they were both the families of the imperial master. However, the Lin family was innocently implicated in that rebellion, and everyone in the family died. Only Lin Churui survived.
Lin Churui's father was the emperor's teacher. Not only the emperor, but also Prince An and the eldest princess came from the same school, so they were very familiar with Lin Churui.
At that time, the eldest princess and Lin Churui were very close and often communicated with each other. The emperor also thought about letting her enter the palace, but Lin Churui did not have that ambition.
Unexpectedly, after the Lin family's accident, Lin Churui was so disheartened that she disappeared and disappeared for more than 20 years.
Hearing this name again, it was actually under such circumstances that a man who once disdained to share a man's flower with other women ended up becoming someone else's concubine.
There was a confused light in the emperor's eyes, and he recalled every moment of getting along with Lin Churui, as well as Lin Churui's charming smile in his memory.
That was his first love, the first woman he fell in love with when he first fell in love, and the woman he seriously wanted to keep by his side but was worried that she wouldn't like her.
When something like that happened to the Lin family, he felt a little ashamed and wanted to make it up to Lin Churui and give her a noble life, but she ran away.
"How is your mother doing?" The emperor was silent for a while and then said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern. Her heart has been very peaceful these years."
Chu Yifeng's answer was not what the emperor wanted to hear.
The emperor sighed and said: "Logically speaking, we are all students of your grandfather, so we have the friendship of classmates. At that time, your mother had the best relationship with the emperor's sister. She often went to the palace to accompany the emperor's sister. Since she left, Sister Huang has lost her smile in these years. If Sister Huang knew that you were Chu Rui's son, she would definitely be willing to see you."
The emperor's words actually made Princess Huiyue look like she was having fun.
She seemed to have heard something extraordinary, and couldn't help but excitedly said to Chu Yifeng: "Brother Yifeng, it turns out that Aunt Lin has such an identity and background, why has she never mentioned it before?"
Chu Yifeng was also a little confused. Regarding her mother, she rarely heard her mother mention it.
Even my mother's full name was only solemnly told before leaving.
"The villain's grandmother is the emperor's teacher?" He confirmed in a low voice.
The emperor nodded and said: "Master Lin was very knowledgeable and like a jade tree. He impressed everyone and everyone was very satisfied with him. It's a pity that a rebellion led to the innocent deaths of the Lin family."
Chu Yifeng was deeply shocked by the emperor's words.
He stooped down almost instantly, still mumbling: "No wonder, mother said that as long as I arrive in Daxia, I can know everything I want to know..."
The emperor was filled with emotion. He thought of Master Lin's family who died for them, of Bai Yueguang and Lin Churui, and then looked at Chu Yifeng today. Many past events were too painful to look back on.
Eunuch Huang on the side also felt uncomfortable. He had been following the emperor since he was a child, so when he heard the name Lin Churui, his scalp felt numb. After more than twenty years, she finally appeared.
"The Lin family has been a scholar for generations, and your mother was the most talented woman in Kyoto back then. Many high-ranking families were waiting for your mother to reach the age of marriage so that they could come to ask for her hand in marriage. However, God did not fulfill their wishes and something like that happened... Back then, the late emperor's younger brother launched a rebellion and the court was in chaos. The rebels forced your grandfather to use them for their own purposes. Your grandfather would rather die than obey, which led to the entire family being wiped out. Only your mother was spared because she was with the imperial sister..."
