132. Family Reunion

———,                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             �

After reporting from the eunuch, Chen Xiuwen was called in before he had not been waiting outside the door for long.

In the original memory, he had met the emperor many times, but he met alone at a banquet with a large number of people. This was the first time.

Chen Xiuwen felt that he might be a little nervous at that time, but he could be calm and composed. Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door, he felt an extremely powerful sense of oppression. His body suddenly had a stress reaction, and the secretion of adrenaline increased rapidly. He suppressed his warning action, but only adjusted his state secretly and tried to move towards the pressure source normally.

What is the emperor doing? He is suffering from other people's fish ponds. Or is he not favored by the emperor? He did not do anything out of line. Didn't the original body want to beat Xie Yanqing last time that he had fallen into the water? Could it be that he saved this time, but the emperor's enemy...

Chen Xiuwen felt under great pressure and guessed the reason why the emperor did this. However, no matter how he thought about it, he would not have expected that it was his father-in-law's dislike of his future son-in-law.

"Chen Xiuwen bowed to the emperor, the emperor, the emperor, Sheng'an." Alas, his first kneeling in his life was given to this ancient emperor. In this era when he would die if he didn't kneel down, he was really helpless.

Duanmu Rong stared at him, and after a while, he said lightly: "Let's flat, give him a seat." Even the important officials in the court often couldn't resist his pressure, but unexpectedly, this kid resisted it. When he came in, his steps were steady, his eyes were clear, and his spine was straight, which was not bad.

When did Shen Maotong's second son grow up so well? Are those unpleasant rumors all arranged by people who are interested? He hit Xie Yanqing but fell into the water. Is it because he wanted to get rid of his two stupid sons?

Duanmu Rongyi accidentally thought deeply and misunderstood.

Chen Xiuwen sat quietly on the round stool sent by the chief supervisor himself, waiting for the emperor to speak. He felt deeply that he might not be here to receive commendation this time, but to be examined. Could it be that the emperor wanted to seal his mouth and smooth out the princess' fall into the water? After all, this is not a good thing for the royal family.

Duanmu Rong came back to his senses and suddenly asked, "How old are you?"

Chen Xiuwen was a little confused and subconsciously said, "Nineteen, uh, no, fifteen. Go back to the emperor, I will be fifteen tomorrow."

Duanmurong showed a smile on his face and said, "It turns out that tomorrow is your birthday, but it's a good day. You'll bring ten boxes of imperial kitchen snacks back and try them later."

Chen Xiuwen paused, stood up and knelt down and said calmly, "Report to the emperor, when I was born, my mother died. I am very unfilial and dare not accept your reward."

Chen Xiuwen felt extremely sympathetic to the original body and his current self. The original body was a birthday that no one had celebrated in fifteen years, and the birthday was always the saddest day he had. And he must now follow Daning's concept and regard this as his own guilt.

But such misfortunes are not the fault of the child. They are just the concepts of the times, but they cannot be changed easily.

Duanmu Rong sighed softly when he heard this and said kindly: "It's me that I'm wronged. Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chen Xiuwen said respectfully. For some reason, the more friendly the emperor's tone, the more frightened he felt, and his hair was about to stand up.

Duanmu Rong asked gently: "Where did you go to school? How did you study Liuyi? What books are you studying recently?"

Chen Xiuwen choked for a moment. What rhythm is this? The emperor actually cared about his studies? What should he say? When he was a child, he was sick and asked a teacher to enlighten him at home. After understanding the commonly used words, he began to be frustrated with learning. He grew up to fifteen years old and could not even memorize the most basic classics. He neither had the ability to take the imperial examination nor wanted to enter the Imperial College based on his family background.

However, it is precisely because he is self-study at home that outsiders cannot be very clear about his level. It is said that his original body is stupid, but stupid people also have smart things. He is naturally sensitive to numbers. Moreover, because of his worship of his father and brother, he also shoots and controls.

Chen Xiuwen thought about it secretly and said with a clear voice: "Go back to the emperor, I was not very healthy at a young age, so I did not go to the official school to study. I only studied by myself at home, and barely understood the six arts. Recently, I have been reading a book called "Xiling Miscellaneous Notes" by my side."

Duanmu Rong smiled and said, "Do you like reading books like geography?"

Chen Xiuwen also smiled and said, "I just read it occasionally. I don't really like to study. I feel curious about this book because it mentions where my father and brother are, so I took it to read it."

Duanmu Rong looked at him again and said, "Do you miss your father and brother?"

Chen Xiuwen gave him a look, lowered his head and replied, "Yes."

Duanmu Rong smiled and said, "The General guards the frontier for me, but it has made you suffer."

Chen Xiuwen hurriedly said, "The emperor is so arrogant, and I am ashamed. I am enjoying a peaceful life in Jing'an, and it is not bitter at all."

Duanmu Rong laughed, got up and walked to him from behind the desk. Chen Xiuwen also stood up at the same time, wondering what he was going to do.

Duanmu Rong patted his shoulder with one hand and said, "In two years, I will transfer your father back according to the situation. Don't continue to stay at home now. After returning to Beijing this time, I will go to the Imperial College to register for it, study hard, and share my worries in the future."

Chen Xiuwen thought to himself that the emperor's hand was so strong that he almost slapped him in a slight manner. He responded seriously: "Xu Wen, thank you, the emperor, and study hard and be loyal to the emperor!"

"Okay, okay, okay!" Duanmu Rong patted his shoulder twice, and the strength was much lessened.

He said again: "Let's leave after dinner with me, and I'll celebrate your birthday in advance."

When Chen Xiuwen heard this, a sour feeling surged in his heart. This was not his own emotion, but more like an obsession that the original body could not get rid of from his bones.

He opened his mouth, feeling his throat as if something was blocked, and he couldn't speak.

Duanmu Rong saw his eyes red, and smiled slightly and said, "The General is like my own brother. You will be like my child. If you have anything in the future, you can go to the palace to tell me. I will make the decision for you."

Chen Xiuwen was uneasy about his sudden emotions. He listened to the emperor's words and said, "Yes, the emperor."

Afterwards, he personally experienced an imperial dinner, and the atmosphere with the emperor was quite harmonious. However, this harmonious feeling was more like being created by the emperor. He was with this Emperor Daning, but he actually felt like he was with the king as if he was with a tiger.

He is very weak, just like a newborn kitten, and can be beaten to death by the other party at any time.

Finally, Chen Xiuwen returned to Yishan Tower with a large amount of rewards and lay exhausted on the bed.

Thinking of attending the emperor's cooling party the day after tomorrow, he was so angry that he was very angry. According to the emperor's wishes, he should just right his name and don't always bear the bad reputation of the past.

It seems that there is a battle to be fought, and he must win.

"Chen Xiuwen, come here to taste the cold melon, it's very sweet," Duanmufu pinched the corner of his sleeve, pulled it gently, and said, "Chen Xiuwen, can I see you often in the palace? How did my father arrange it for you?"

Looking at the little girl's excitement, Chen Xiuwen followed her to the table and said, "The Emperor asked me to walk in front of the emperor. Now I only need to work for half a day every ten minutes."

Duanmufu picked up a piece of melon and handed it to him, frowned slightly and said, "That's it, isn't it a month or two days?"

Chen Xiuwen took it and took it, explaining: "Because I still have to study in the Imperial College."

Duanmu Fu pursed his lips and smiled, saying, "So that's it. Thank you for your hard work, Chen Xiuwen."

Chen Xiuwen tasted the cold melon and smiled without saying anything. From this point of view, he would indeed become very busy, with a full calculation, and only one and a half days a month was a holiday. Perhaps this would be fine. Although it could not resolve the loneliness and pain he had caused by time travel, he could also control the time of random thoughts.

After all, thinking too much is useless. For things that are difficult to change and powerless, a wiser choice is to let things go. Just follow the gear of fate, and maybe in the near future, there will be another cycle of reincarnation.

Duanmufu lowered his eyes and smiled, and asked him in a crisp voice: "Is the melon very sweet? Do you want to eat another piece?"

Chen Xiuwen waved his hand to show that he had enough. He put down the melon skin, and then found that he had no towel to wipe, so he looked at her and said, "Do you have a towel?"

Duanmufu blinked his eyes, coughed lightly, and shouted, "Gao Huan, hand towel."

Her Yonghua Palace Supervisor immediately entered the house and brought a plate for Chen Xiuwen to choose from.

Chen Xiuwen was speechless. He took a piece and wiped it and said, "Grand Princess, if nothing else is done, I will take it off."

Duanmu Fu thought for a while and said, "I'm about to leave, why don't we go out together."

Chen Xiuwen replied: "Okay."

The two of them looked at each other silently for a while before Duanmu Fu set out to walk out of the hall, and Chen Xiuwen followed him.

The cicadas chirping in the garden, the sun was shining white, and the two of them walked slowly on the veranda, occasionally taking a look at the spring scenery outside.

"Chen Xiuwen." Duanmu Fu suddenly picked up his skirt, walked two steps quickly and stood in front of him and called him.

"Hmm?" Chen Xiuwen stopped naturally and looked at her in confusion.

Duanmu Fu Yanran smiled and said, "I forgot to say just now that today is the happiest day I have in such a long time. I am so happy!"
