"What's so happy? I can hear the sound of father's laughter from a long distance away. Why don't you tell your eldest son and let's be happy together?"
Before entering the main hall, Xiang Yunjin's voice penetrated the wind and snow and the closed doors and windows, and the three people who were talking and laughing were stunned.
Especially Princess Xiang's face couldn't help but twist for a moment. If Xiang Yunqi hadn't grasped her hand, I really don't know if she could hold back the anger in her chest.
These days, the prince has never looked at her, the princess, with a good face. He even didn't come back at night and lived in the concubine's room.
She and her son spent a lot of effort and finally coaxed the prince. This damn knife came to spoil the mood.
Princess Xiang took several deep breaths and barely stabilized herself.
Prince Xiang's face suddenly turned bad. In fact, he couldn't be happy with what his rebellious son said.
Isn't it obvious that he is implying that his father is unkind and partial? It would be strange if his face could be good.
"Butler Zhou" shouted to Prince Xiang with a sullen face.
Butler Zhou, who had been standing outside the door, looked at the prince standing at the door with a sad face, and hurriedly pushed the door open and walked in.
A tea lid flew over to him, followed by a scolding, "Asshole, you didn't even inform the prince when he came, and you have learned all the rules."
Hearing this, Xiang Yunjin, who was outside the door, raised a sarcastic smile again. The dignified prince even used indirect criticism on his own son.
Perhaps because he was too angry, Prince Xiang's usually strong body shook. Xiang Yunqi quickly supported his father, put one hand on his chest to help him calm down, and his eyes were full of worry. He
advised: "Father, calm down, the butler may not have done it on purpose, and my eldest brother must be happy to speak directly to the room without any rules."
It would have been better not to say this. Xiang Yunqi's words successfully made Prince Xiang's face darker at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Of course he knew that the housekeeper didn't mean it, and that's why he was so angry. This rebellious son clearly didn't take his father seriously.
Housekeeper Zhou didn't dare to dodge the tea lid flying towards him. He thought it would hit him hard on the head, but he didn't expect that the prince who followed him would grab it. Housekeeper Zhou, who was relieved, knelt in front of the prince.
Just as he was about to beg for mercy, the prince's voice rang out again.
Although the prince had just helped him catch the tea lid and saved him from a bloody head, the housekeeper was grateful in his heart, but at this moment he really didn't want the prince to speak. Didn't he see that the prince was furious and his face was black and blue?
"Father, why are you so angry? I stopped Housekeeper Zhou from reporting it. Aren't I worried that I disturbed your family happiness? Why is father still angry? Weren't you very happy just now?"
Xiang Yunjin took the tea lid in his hand, played with it, and walked into the house with a faint smile on his face.
Prince Xiang was so angry at these words that he pointed at Xiang Yunjin and was speechless for a long time, breathing heavily.
Xiang Yunjin walked slowly to the nanmu carved table as if he hadn't seen anything, gently placed the tea lid in his hand on it, and then looked at Prince Xiang in surprise.
"What's wrong with father? Why is he breathing so heavily?" Then he pushed Xiang Yunqi, who was supporting Prince Xiang, away, ignored the cold light in Xiang Yunqi's eyes, and pulled Prince Xiang to sit on the couch.
"Father, are you feeling unwell?"
He spoke with a worried look on his face, and then looked at the housekeeper kneeling on the ground coldly, "Why are you still standing there? Why don't you go and get the palace doctor? Can't you see that your prince is feeling unwell?"
Butler Zhou was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then quickly got up and went out to get the palace doctor.
He knew in his heart that it would be best for him to leave at this time, otherwise he, the outsider, would
be the one in trouble. Xiang Yunjin changed his expression quickly after speaking harshly, and continued to look at Prince Xiang worriedly, as if it was not him who made him so angry, but someone else.
Looking at the rebellious son beside him, Prince Xiang took several deep breaths before he could barely suppress the anger in his chest.
This rebellious son came to irritate him. He didn't want him to be happy, and he couldn't be fooled by the rebellious son, Prince Xiang thought angrily.
At the same time, for some reason, the words "family happiness" kept echoing in his ears. Prince Xiang felt a little guilty for some reason, and even dared not to look at the eyes that looked like his deceased wife.
Those eyes as black as the abyss seemed to be able to easily pierce through his heart, exposing the unbearable hidden deep in his heart nakedly in front of him.
Prince Xiang finally calmed down after a while and glared at the eldest son standing beside him.
"Father, why are you looking at me? I know I look like my mother, but you can't keep stopping me from missing her. It's not long until my mother's memorial day. It's been almost ten years since my mother passed away. I don't think there has been a proper memorial day in these years. This year, I think we should have a big one, so that father and mother can talk about their true feelings. Don't you agree? I also know that you have a lot of things to do every day. Why don't you leave it to your concubine?"
Xiang Yunjin had a faint smile on his face. His words not only stabbed Prince Xiang's heart, but also Princess Xiang, who was forcing a smile on her face.
"You..." Prince Xiang, who had just recovered his breath, was almost angry again.
"Let's do it this way. After the New Year, I hope your concubine can do a good job of the sacrifice. Otherwise... Father should understand."
Xiang Yunjin glanced coldly at Princess Xiang, who could no longer maintain a smile on her face, and the cold light in his eyes flashed.
"Brother, how can you call my mother a concubine? After all, my mother was the princess conferred by my father on Yudie. Brother, are you questioning my father's decision? What should I do as a prince?"
Xiang Yunqi couldn't help staring at Xiang Yunjin at this moment, openly flirting with his father.
Xiang Yunjin called him a concubine, one by one, and every word pierced his heart, reminding him that he was born to a concubine, which was exactly what he hated the most.
Even though my mother is now the mistress of the palace, her origin can never be erased. She was a concubine taken into the palace by my father.
At this point, he will always be deeply trampled under the feet of his elder brother.
He was unwilling, why? Why should he be trampled under the feet of someone so outstanding? Xiang Yunqi glanced at Xiang Yunjin with a vicious look.
"Are you talking to me?" Xiang Yunjin slowly turned his head to look at his cheap brother who could not hide the hatred in his eyes.
"When was it your turn to interrupt my father? How come you think that your mother, who was a concubine, is now a princess and is really the eldest son of the palace? Do you take your father seriously? Do you take me, the eldest brother, seriously? When it comes to family education, where is your family education, Xiang Yunqi?"
"Xiang Yunjin, you..." Xiang Yunqi was angry.
"Look, I was right. You are so angry that you dare to call your elder brother by his name. You are disrespectful to your father and brother. Father, shouldn't you discipline your most beloved youngest son, so that he will not go out and embarrass our palace without knowing the rules? Father, a son's advice is as good as killing him, don't you think?" Xiang Yunjin suddenly pointed the finger at Prince Xiang.
"Xiang..."
"Qi'er, don't be so presumptuous. Your elder brother is right. You shouldn't interrupt. And how can you call your elder brother by his name? There is an order of seniority. Have you forgotten what I taught you before? Hurry up and apologize to your elder brother."
