The Evil King's Favorite Concubine: Genius Perfumer

Chapter 193 Night Talk (Part [-])

"I told them that my mother gave me a dream and asked me to come back to perform a ritual for her during the Obon Festival."

Han Rui didn't stumble at all when he said this, so it was obvious that it was the truth. As for the content...Gan Tiantian didn't believe it anyway.

It doesn't matter if she doesn't believe it, her reason is very legitimate!
When is Obon Festival?
According to Buddhism, on July [-]th, believers should go to the temple to worship the Buddha and monks, to help all suffering beings in the six realms, and to thank their parents for their kindness.So this day is also called Filial Piety Day.Doing rituals on this day can not only express the grief for the deceased, but also make people remember the kindness of their parents.

So Han Rui wanted to go all the way back to the place where his biological mother was born, and do things for her, and no one else could stop him.

First of all Concubine Jiang couldn't make a sound to obstruct her.

Even though she is now the concubine of King Xiang, she is only a step-wife, and she still has to act as a concubine in front of the memorial tablet of the late Concubine Fang.

If she prevented Han Rui from returning to his hometown to do things for his late mother, with Han Rui's current ability to spread news among the rich and powerful in the capital, she would not discuss it every minute.

So no matter how dissatisfied Concubine Jiang was, she could only bear it on the surface.

As for King Xiang, he didn't care much about his eldest son running around, he was too busy with his own affairs.

The relationship between father and son has been very estranged since Han Rui lost his mother when he was young. In addition, Concubine Jiang has spared no effort to divorce over the years, which makes their feelings for each other more indifferent than ordinary clan father and son.As long as Han Rui doesn't cause trouble for him, King Xiang rarely asks about Han Rui's whereabouts.

For Han Rui, is this a good thing or a bad thing?Sometimes he can only comfort himself: it's better than his father bringing himself to reprimand and discipline him every day.

But in the bottom of his heart, he envied those clan brothers who complained to him that they had been taught by their own father to be disheartened.

After all, their father is still concerned about them.And my own father... Hehe.

The two masters of King Xiang's Mansion agreed to let him go, and Han Rui went out of Beijing logically.

As for the Guozijian, it is enough to ask the mansion to say that it is temporarily impossible to go - the professors in the Guozijian, who cares whether the clan's children go to school or not?It's one less thing to worry about, although Han Rui really didn't worry them much.

What's more, people are going to worship their deceased mother and do Obon festival ceremonies for the deceased mother. That is a very filial son!In class, I can still take out a few words of praise.There is no way, none of the children of the royal relatives and relatives are really interested in studying. Apart from praising them for being sensible, filial piety is the greatest compliment...

"Well, I know why you came out. But you haven't answered my question!" Gan Tiantian was not so easily fooled: "Why did you come back at the same time as Jiang Niangniang?"

"Well, I want to know what kind of tricks that woman is going to do... She is also good if she is disgusting."

Having said that, Han Rui didn't hide it so much anymore.

This was the first time he had said the word "that woman" to someone other than himself.

Even in front of Fang Shaobai, he was very cautious not to talk about the family affairs of the palace.

It's not that Han Rui doesn't trust Fang Shaobai, he just doesn't want to involve Fang Shaobai... In the past, he didn't even tell Fang Shaobai that he knew martial arts, and only recently did he reveal a little bit to Fang Shaobai.

After all... Cousin Shaobai, as the heir of the Fang family, also has many burdens on his shoulders.There are some things that he can't help himself... so why bother him more.

But for Gan Tiantian, Han Rui didn't have so many scruples for some reason.

He didn't want to get into the "why".There may be many reasons, but the most important reason is probably——

She is Gan Tiantian.That's it.

Things in the world are often so strange.Some thoughts hidden in the bottom of my heart have never been mentioned to anyone, and I just want to bear them silently.But once the chatterbox is opened, I want to continue, to continue...

Han Rui has never had the desire to confide in anyone in his life.

Ever since Master left, he has never trusted others wholeheartedly, perhaps...Fang Shaobai is an exception.

Now there is one more exception.Gan Tiantian.

Gan Tiantian's body was in great pain, his forehead was swollen where he was hit, his left eye could barely be opened halfway, and he was extremely listless.

But she still stared at Han Rui intently, listening to him, saying many things.

Said that his mother died early, and his cousin Jiang Shi took advantage of the situation and became the mistress of the palace.

It is said that his father, the king, is extremely fond of Jiang, and Jiang's son is many times more favored than his eldest son.

These are just ordinary secret affairs of the mansion, which is not unusual.

What surprised Gan Tiantian was that Han Rui had such a powerful and mysterious master.There really is such a master who hides in the city?Is it the Xiao Dynasty version of "Nie Yinniang", "Book and Sword Enmity Record", "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"?The close old servant of our son and daughter is a reclusive hero...it's amazing.

Hearing this, Gan Tiantian was still mostly shocked.only to hear later...

Jiang's intensified persecution caused the father and son to become estranged year by year, his position in the mansion was in jeopardy, and even his biological mother's dowry property was almost confiscated.

"The royal family of the Great Xiao can enshrine the heir, ranging from sixteen to eighteen, and the imperial court will not confer the title in advance if he is not an adult." Han Rui said coldly, "I managed to live to be thirteen..."

Gan Tiantian could hear a hint of bitterness in the plain "very easy".

If he hadn't happened to have an expert master, and if he hadn't been quick-witted, resolute and sensible, it's still unknown whether he could have survived until now.

The conflict between Concubine Jiang and Han Rui was already obvious. If she wanted her son to become the crown prince, she had to get rid of Han Rui, but she couldn't leave any traces or excuses.

Perhaps in the beginning, Concubine Jiang's purpose was to fly to the branch and become a princess.

Then, she worked hard to give birth to a son——is God helping?In short, this son strengthened her position in the palace, but also changed her original "simple" thinking.

She herself is a very ambitious and unscrupulous woman, and the existence of this son only intensifies her ambition...

And what about the Jiang family?The Jiang family is naturally happy to see all of this, and there must be something behind the scenes that fuels the flames.Han Rui was just not sure how deeply the Jiang family was involved here.

Ji Bingyun, who was quietly listening to their conversation, felt a lot of emotion in her heart.

As a concubine, I encountered all kinds of helplessness in the gate of the mansion, and finally died under the conspiracy of my half-sister.However, Han Rui, the eldest son... the growth process was also full of twists and turns.

Different backgrounds, different experiences, but some things are common.

This is the first time Ji Bingyun sees Han Rui a little bit more pleasing to the eye... Hmph, it's just a little bit!
