Chapter 148: The mountains and rivers are different, the wind and moon are the same

When they arrived at the gate of the palace, Chen Yunyu and Shen Yunjing said goodbye to each other, one walked towards the direction of the conference hall, and the other walked towards the direction of the harem.

When he arrived at the gate of the meeting hall, the little eunuch who led Chen Yunyu bowed to him, and said politely, asking him to wait here for a while and go in and report it first.

Chen Yunyu nodded, and as he watched the little eunuch enter the gate of the council hall, he stood silently at the door and began to recall the series of things he had investigated in Mo Kingdom in his mind.

After he stood for a while, someone came over from a distance.

Chen Yunyu looked up and saw that the man was wearing a navy blue robe and his hair was tied up with a silver crown on his head.

When the man got closer, Chen Yunyu saluted respectfully at him and said, "I have seen His Highness the Fourth Prince."

The fourth prince Ye Chenjin quickly stepped forward a few steps, helped Chen Yunyu a little, and said to him with a smile: "No need to be polite. I heard Chen Xiang say a few days ago that Yunyu went to Mo Kingdom, but he didn't expect to come back so soon."

Chen Yunyu also smiled and said, "It's not my troublesome brother. I heard that he was a little injured in Mo Country. I was worried about him, so I went to visit him."

"Oh?" Ye Chenjin's face was a little surprised. He looked at Chen Yunyu and said, "Ling is the son of the Prime Minister's family in Ye Kingdom. He was injured in the territory of Mo Kingdom. This..."

"It's okay, it's just some bandits who don't have eyes." Chen Yunyu smiled and waved his hand, "What's more, my brother pretended to be a businessman. It's just that he didn't get robbed and injured, but it made me feel abnormal."

"That's right." Ye Chenjin smiled slightly and said to Chen Yunyu: "My father told me that I entered the palace and said there was something important to discuss, so I won't talk to Yunyu here. Let's find a place to drink tea and listen to opera together, and then talk about Yunyu's interesting things in Mo Country."

"Okay." Chen Yunyu nodded and bowed to Ye Chenjin again and said, "I won't bother Your Highness."

Ye Chenjin nodded and walked into the conference hall with both hands on his back.

After Chen Yunyu watched him leave with a smile on his face, the smile on his lips fell.

On the other side, Chen Yunjing, led by the little eunuch, had not stepped into the gate of Ruyu Hall, and heard the little eunuch report at the top of his voice: "The second son of the Shen family, Chen Yunjing asked to see Concubine Shu—"

After a while, a little palace maid came out of Ruyu Palace. The little palace maid looked at Chen Yunjingfu who was standing at the door of the hall and said with a smile: "The second son of the Shen family has been waiting for a long time, please follow me."

Chen Yunjing turned his head and looked at the little eunuch standing in front of him. The little eunuch bent down, lowered his head, and reached out to make a "please" gesture.

Chen Yunjing withdrew his gaze, followed the little palace maid, and walked into Ruyu Hall.

All the decorations in this palace are no different from those in memory.

Although in his memory, there are not many memories about it.

He only remembers that he seemed to have almost never seen his mother laugh since he was born. When other little princes were acting coquettish in the arms of their mothers, he could only see his mother staring at him in a daze.

Later, the emperor sent him to Prime Minister Shen's mansion, which was called receiving the Prime Minister's education, but in fact he gave himself to Prime Minister as his adopted son.

Since he arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, he has only been able to see his mother in the palace on the Mid-Autumn Festival and New Year's Eve in the year. In fact, if he wants to go to the palace to pay homage to his mother, he must inform him in advance.

But for so many years, every time he meets his mother, the mother and son are relatively speechless. Over time, he rarely mentions the need to see his mother.

at the moment……

Chen Yunjing sighed deeply. The last time he saw his mother, it was on New Year's Eve, what happened at the palace banquet.

He thought about it all the way and followed the little palace maid into the inner hall of Ruyu Hall.

In the inner hall, a graceful woman could be seen sitting upright through the screen. The woman was well maintained. From a distance, she looked like she was in her twenties, but there seemed to be a hint of sorrow between her eyebrows and eyes.

Chen Yunjing stood behind the screen and knelt respectfully towards the figure and said, "Chen Yunjing bowed to Empress Shu, and Empress Shu is safe."

"Get up quickly." The woman behind the screen said softly: "Jing'er, stop standing outside, come in."

"Yes." Chen Yunjing responded softly, and walked into the inner room under the guidance of the little palace maid.

Seeing Chen Yunjing coming in, Shufei looked at him carefully with her eyes as watery as she looked at him. After a while, she spoke in a low voice: "Jing'er seems to have grown taller and lost weight."

Chen Yunjing raised his head, looked at her, pursed his lips, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

The mother and son looked at each other for a long time before Shufei smiled and said, "Why is Jing'er still standing? Sit down quickly?"

Chen Yunjing then responded and sat down not far from her.

But after sitting down, the two of them looked at each other for a while and were speechless.

After a long time, Concubine Shu spoke and asked softly at Chen Yunjing: "Jing'er came to the palace to find me, but what's wrong?"

Chen Yunjing thought about his experience in the secret room of the General's Mansion of Mo Kingdom. He was originally going to ask his mother in person, but when he spoke, he didn't know how to speak.

The huge palace was filled with a quiet and awkward atmosphere.

Maybe he really didn't know what to say. After a long time of silence, Chen Yunjing finally spoke in a low voice: "It's not a big deal, I just come and see if my mother is safe."

Concubine Shu was stunned for a moment, then frowned slightly, smiled faintly and said, "But it's just the same as before."

Chen Yunjing: “…”

After another long and embarrassing silence, Chen Yunjing finally stood up and said to Concubine Shu: "Since that's the case, I will take it back first, wish Concubine Shu good health."

Concubine Shu finally stood up from the chair, looked at Chen Yunjing with her eyes, and asked in a low voice: "Is Jing'er leaving shortly after she arrived?"

"Yeah." Chen Yunjing responded lightly, and when he wanted to turn around and leave, he still couldn't help it.

He walked to Concubine Shu, looked at her with deep eyes for a long time, and then he asked softly: "Do you remember a word from Mother?"

Concubine Shu looked at him in confusion.

Chen Yunjing paused word by word, and his voice faintly said to Shufei: "The mountains and rivers are different, and the wind and moon are the same."

The moment his voice fell, Chen Yunjing saw that his mother's eyes, which were originally like a pool of stagnant water, suddenly lit up.
