Chapter 111 The motherless bastard
Cui Xiu saw the fifth prince and Li Qun getting close, and sighed in her heart from time to time. Everything was just as she thought at the beginning, and she put Xiaoliu under Sister Yun’s knees. After all, the relationship between Xiaoliu and Li Qun is not generally good.
The emperor asked Li Qun to be the first teacher of the fifth prince. It can be seen that the emperor has high hopes for the fifth prince. Li Qun is not an ordinary person. Among those princes, who can have a teacher like Li Qun? Got a big support.
When the prince was still young, his status as an enlightenment teacher was not as good as Li Qun's status now. It is hard not to think too much about the emperor's behavior.
Cui Xiu knows that many people are thinking about Xiao Wu and the Cui family. They want to take sides. If they stand in the right direction, it is the best proof that choice is greater than hard work.
Everyone thought that the emperor valued their Cui family and the fifth prince, but in Cui Xiu's view, this was not the case.
If the emperor really valued them, he would not let Li Qun be the first teacher of the fifth prince. Who in Kyoto didn't know about her and Li Qun's past.
No one knows what happened between her and Li Qun better than the emperor. The emperor deliberately created opportunities for them, and then secretly sent people to watch them if they had any behavior that exceeded the rules.
The emperor is probably trying to catch a turtle in a urn.
Cui Xiu felt indifferent in his heart, only feeling that the dog emperor's thoughts were getting worse every year. It was difficult to ignore the thoughts that were about to come out.
Ever since she and the emperor had a tense dispute over Ning Bin's matter a few years ago, the emperor rarely came to her Chuxiu Palace. Instead, he often went to Ning Bin's Xiangrong Pavilion. Every time there was a commotion, he was afraid that she wouldn't know. .
Cui Xiu only felt that the quality of the Dog Emperor was really not good, but the Dog Emperor must have felt that she had trouble sleeping every day and must have missed him for a long time.
Later, when the child grew older, the fifth prince would often appear in front of the emperor. When the emperor saw the fifth prince, he would think of her. In the past six months, the emperor began to "care" about her from time to time. .
"You guys are making a lot of noise all the way here. What are you talking about?" Cui Xiu raised his hand to touch the fifth prince's head symbolically and asked.
When the fifth prince heard Cui Xiu’s question, he immediately complained to Cui Xiu: “My concubine, the third brother always bullies the sixth brother.”
"He always takes advantage of his age to steal our things!"
When Cui Xiu heard what the fifth prince said, her eyebrows were flat, as if she had heard something ordinary.
When it comes to dealing with Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu, most of Cui Xiu's emotions are hidden in her heart. She knows that there are people watching around them all the time. If anyone sees the mistake, , that’s incredible.
Cui Xiu glanced at the Sixth Prince out of the corner of her eye. Seeing that there was no change in expression on the Sixth Prince's face, she felt calmer.
Xiao Liu had no reaction, indicating that most of this matter was exaggerated by Xiao Wu. During such a long time together, Cui Xiu discovered that Xiao Wu had a particularly bad habit.
He just likes to mislead others with his language, magnifying an originally insignificant matter to make people anxious and angry.
In Cui Xiu’s impression, there are several particularly impressive things.
Two years ago, the fifth prince was a little more than three years old. He had just learned to walk a little and could barely speak some words. He was criticized by Concubine Chun once before, but he later went to the Empress Dowager. Then, pointing at Concubine Chun, she cried to the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother has always doted on the fifth prince. When she saw the fifth prince pointing at Concubine Chun and crying, she asked the maid, who then told the Queen Mother what happened that day.
The Queen Mother could not tolerate sand in her eyes. Knowing that Concubine Chun was going to "bully" a young child, she immediately fined Concubine Chun her salary and asked Concubine Chun to do the same thing in front of everyone. A little doll apologizes.
Concubine Chun loves face the most. She can lose anything, but she must not lose face or her pomp.
But with the Queen Mother on top, Concubine Chun could only swallow her anger and apologize to the fifth prince. Cui Xiu asked Chunfeng to carry the child to her that day. She did not witness this with her own eyes, but just by listening to Chunfeng's vivid description, Cui Xiu knew that this was her son.
He is really a difficult person to deal with.
The fifth prince knew how to adapt to the wind and bully others at such a young age. This must have been the work of Concubine Ning.
Although the Queen Mother does not let Ning Bin get close to the fifth prince, the Chuxiu Palace is her palace after all, and externally she will follow the Queen Mother's wishes, because there is no need for her to be an enemy of the Queen Mother for the sake of unimportant people.
Although Ning Bin allowed the fifth prince to be raised under her knees, Ning Bin never gave up her idea of educating the fifth prince.
Every time when the moon is dark and the wind is high, Ning Bin will say something to the fifth prince. Over time, the fifth prince is indeed moved by Ning Bin’s words.
After all, he is still a child. As long as adults can give him some candy, he can believe it.
When the fifth prince saw Cui Xiu echoing his words like Empress Ning, he planned a wonderful plot in his mind and continued to talk to Cui Xiu:
"He also said that the sixth brother cannot be raised in the lap of his biological mother. He is a bastard that no mother wants."
A bastard.
These two words made Cui Xiu's face darken subconsciously, but she knew that she had to endure it. There was an expression in her eyes that a normal adult would have.
“Yan’er, everything they said is false.”
“Xiao Liu is a good boy.”
"Xiao Liu has his mother and concubine, his uncle, me, and you."
Besides, the Sixth Prince, standing next to Li Qun, never spoke, and there was no expression on his face. It seemed as if what the fifth prince had just said had nothing to do with him.
After Li Qun heard this, he sternly said to the fifth prince: "Fifth prince, be careful in your words and deeds."
As the fifth prince's teacher, Li Qun has always been afraid of Li Qun. , because in the eyes of the fifth prince, Li Qun is really fierce, never smiles, and is not gentle at all.
Furthermore, in the eyes of the fifth prince, Mr. Li is not like his mother and concubine. She never interferes in his affairs and never cares about him. But Mr. Li is different. He can speak and recognize things since he after.
Li Qun became the fifth prince's teacher. Li Qun was always serious in public. When he saw his students not studying well, he would take action as a warning.
As Li Qun spoke, his peripheral vision fell on Cui Xiu's face. Among them, Cui Xiu was the one he was most worried about.
Because the adjective "bastard" is too vicious, especially in front of someone's biological mother, saying that her child is a wild child and a bastard that no one wants.
This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the mother.
Cui Xiu never said she would abandon the Sixth Prince. She just wanted to give him a good environment. Over the past five years, Li Qun gradually understood why Cui Xiu chose the Sixth Prince.
Because in Li Qun's opinion, the Sixth Prince was so calm at a young age, and he would definitely become a genius and one who would amaze the world in the future.
