Chapter 428 Northbound (4000K)

For Herax-on:芊林+

Those two incidents, like the previous incidents, were due to Chen Shiying's inability to supervise his family members and relatives. There will definitely not be such big things as beheading or jailing. How to deal with it depends on the emperor and the elders. Moreover, all the relationships that should be found have been found, and all the things that should be busy are busy. There is no other way but to wait.

The two were talking happily when General Lin in the hall spoke again, "Master Chen, Mrs. Chu, it's time."

The two stood up, and Chen Afu's tears welled up again. He didn't know when he would see him again. She pulled Chen Shiying's sleeve and choked up and said, "Dad, you have to take good care of your health. My family and I are waiting for you in Dingzhou Mansion. Don't think too much. You will age faster if you have too many worries. Look at you, All have white hair.”

Chen Shiying smiled, then his eye circles turned red again, and said, "Fu'er, when you get home, tell your mother and siblings not to worry. Dad is fine. Dad has figured it out now. No matter what the future holds, he can't defeat me. ...Also, don't blame your grandmother. If these things happen, her life will not be easy..."

Chen Afu was not happy when he heard his last words. The evil old woman had harmed him like this, and he still wanted to protect her. If her life continues to be easy, then God really has lost his sight. Chen Afu interrupted him directly and said, "Dad, I know, I will tell them about dad's current situation..."

After giving him a few more instructions, he said goodbye reluctantly.

On the morning of the 9th, Mr. Chu, his mother and son, Chen Afu, and Mrs. Chu were invited to visit Prince Rui's Mansion. Mr. Chu from Shangya and brothers Chu Lingwei from school went to have dinner in the evening. I heard that Mr. Chu would also go.

The post from Prince Rui's Mansion even invited Sa Sa's family, but not the second room's family. Not to mention that Mr. Li was very angry, but the second master was also very angry. But the prince made it clear that he didn't take them seriously, so there was nothing they could do.

King Rui thanked Chen Afu for raising Li Xuan well, and thanked the Chu family for giving him the good idea. Because of his "advice and suggestions", not only did the emperor treat him with special eyes, saying that he was friendly to his brothers and a rare selfless person, several other brothers also became very warm to him and accepted him. Affection.

Although the second prince and the eighth prince were angry with him, he no longer cared. Except for the two of them, any other prince who becomes emperor will remember this great favor of his.

Moreover, he had already seen that the emperor disliked Queen Wang and the Wang family very much, feeling that they were too overbearing. The second prince seemed to be from the middle palace and the most promising, but in fact he was the least promising.

This time the banquet was held by the Peach Blossom Pond. As soon as the Chu family arrived, they were all invited there.

Prince Rui is a romantic person, and he likes peach blossoms. Several acres of peach trees were planted in the northwest corner of the palace. There was a pool of green spring in the forest, so it was named Peach Blossom Pool.

Prince Rui led Princess Rui and Li Xuan to greet the guests. Normally, the charming Concubine Shen would be by his side at any time. But today he didn't dare to take any of his concubines, because Princess Huachang disliked mistresses the most.

Two octagonal pavilions were built not far from the pond, and everyone was invited into the pavilion. The men are in the pavilion on the left, and the women and children are in the pavilion on the right.

Lord Chu was already sitting in the pavilion on the left. Chen Afu was stunned by how he was dressed today. He was actually wearing a red embroidered robe.

If you think about it, you will understand that he is Rong Zhao's consort and the person who has always been manipulated by Rong Zhao. Nowadays, few families would invite him as a guest. Finally, Prince Rui invited him without hesitation. He also had to consider his master and wear festive clothes to ward off evil spirits.

I don't know whether it was because he was embarrassed or because he was dressed in red clothes. I thought his face was also red, and his face was as red as the pink peach blossoms outside the pavilion.

It was just mid-to-early February, and the pink peach blossoms were already hanging on the branches, and the flowering period was one month earlier than in previous years. Under the spring sun, the peach blossoms are in full bloom. When the wind passes, the petals flutter and fall down, which is breathtakingly beautiful.

The Peach Blossom Pond is about three feet in diameter and is surrounded by large rocks half a man's height. If the peach blossoms have not bloomed, the greenery will be deep and lush. It is much more gorgeous than usual now. There are not only pink reflections in the water, but also pink petals floating on the water.

Such sentimental images always make people feel uneasy.

As soon as Chen Afu and others left, Li Xuan ran over to make out with Chen Afu, calling him "aunt" sweetly.

The third lady laughed and scolded, "You call me the royal aunt, but you call me my husband's nephew and aunt. I am at the same disadvantage as you."

He said making everyone laugh.

According to seniority, Chen Afu should be Li Xuan's cousin. But in order to let Chen Afu take care of him better, Prince Rui and his wife asked Li Xuan to call Chen Afu Auntie, which was also approved by the emperor.

Chen Afu was secretly happy. If Xiao Shiyi officially recognizes his ancestor and returns to the clan in the future, the generational hierarchy will be even more chaotic.

Li Xuan went to tease the two younger brothers in the stroller again. The two little guys were already awake and giggling at him with their teeth bared. He was very unbelievable and said in surprise, "Auntie, my brother has grown up a lot. Why hasn't Xuan'er grown so much?"

No matter what her son said, Princess Rui was surprised by his intelligence. When I heard my son ask this, I was so happy that my eyes rolled with laughter. He said, "Oh, Xuan'er is really smart. You can see that my brother has grown up a lot. Children before one year old grow up with the wind. They change drastically after a few days. After one year old, they grow slowly."

Li Xuan suddenly realized, stared and said, "Oh, Xuan'er is already five years old, so he doesn't grow as fast as his younger brother."

Princess Rui smiled again and said, "My son is smart, that's what it is."

King Rui frowned and said, "The princess praises her son like this and is not afraid of people laughing at her."

Although Prince Rui still had a gloomy and calm face, it can be seen from his eyes that he was extremely happy and relaxed.

Chen Afu smiled and said, "In my mother's eyes, my son is so excellent."

Originally, Princess Rui saw that her son was much smarter and more courageous, so she didn't want him to follow Chen Afu to Dingzhou Prefecture. She couldn't bear it.

But Prince Rui felt that Li Xuan should stay with Chen Afu for a while. His reason was high-sounding, "The helmsman of the palace can eat, drink and have fun, and can be unmotivated, but the heart must be clear. Although Xuan'er is much smarter than before, he has only opened six of the seven orifices, and he has to live with Madam Chu for a while. That woman is very smart, and she is far from being as simple as she seems..."

How can a simple family have rare medicinal materials like the three-color ball? Even the Imperial Hospital doesn't have this medicine. Of course, he couldn't say this reason.

There is another reason that he couldn't say. He guessed that Lao Jiu should have suffered from the same hidden disease as himself in the past. However, his hidden disease was caused by being too indulgent, while Lao Jiu's hidden disease was caused by being beaten, which made Lao Jiu not have a son after being married for many years. Yesterday, it was suddenly reported that Lao Jiu's one main wife and two concubines were pregnant at the same time, and Lao Jiu's hidden disease was completely cured. He suspected that Lao Jiu's hidden disease should have been cured by Monk Guiling when they went to Lingyin Temple to burn incense and eat vegetarian food for three days last year.

At the beginning, Monk Guiling said that this disease could only be cured by the three-color ball. At that time, he accidentally found the three-color ball at Chu Lingxuan's wife's house. When he thought about Li Xuan's mental illness, many imperial doctors could not cure it, but he was cured after half a year at the Chu family.

All this shows that Chu Lingxuan's wife is not simple, and the three-color ball that cured Lao Jiu's disease is also likely to be provided by the Chu family.

This made him think further. Lao Jiu and the Chu family are far from being as unfamiliar as they seem. They have continued to communicate secretly for so many years. The idea of ​​"brothers working together" given to him by Chu Lao San was not to help him, but to help Lao Jiu.

This made him secretly proud many years later. He did not expect that his hidden illness actually helped him a lot and made him see the situation clearly early...

Prince Rui's words left Princess Rui speechless. Princess Rui knew that her husband seemed to be the most absurd among all the princes, but he was one of the emperor's favorite princes, and he was also the most comfortable and happy one among the princes. She knew that Prince Rui's heart was not as absurd and playful as it seemed on the surface, and he had no calculations.

After hearing Princess Rui's intention to let Li Xuan stay with her for a while, Chen Afu touched Li Xuan in her arms and smiled, "I like Xuan'er too. I am not used to him not being around. Princess Rui is willing to let him go, so I will take Xuan'er to Dingzhou Prefecture to live for a while."

After hearing this, Li Xuan was so happy that he went straight into Chen Afu's arms. Princess Rui was envious and jealous, and her eyes were red.

Lord Chu in another pavilion waved to this side. Chen Afu knew that he missed his grandson, so he asked someone to push the double baby carriage there.

Prince Rui saw Lord Chu looking at his grandson with a doting look, and he laughed, "Heroes are short-tempered, and young people are affectionate. A ruthless person may not be a true hero... No wonder my eldest sister has admired Prince Chu since she was ten years old. Prince Chu's heart is far from being as... uh, cold as it looks." Seeing Lord Chu's face sank, he laughed again, "Haha, look at me, I talk nonsense when I'm happy. I wanted to praise Lord Chu."

The third wife said unhappily in another pavilion, "I say, Seventh Brother, you think your peach blossoms are too prosperous, and you want to have a peach blossom disaster, right? Why mention that person for no reason?"

Prince Rui was a little afraid of this cousin, and hurriedly laughed, "I am wrong, sister, I like peach blossom luck, not peach blossom disaster."

Prince Rui behaved well except for that unpleasant remark.

Everyone played happily for a day and returned to the mansion after dinner.

Back to Zhuxuan, Chen Afu sorted out the things again. She would leave after lunch tomorrow, and her heart had already flown back. She missed Chu Lingxuan and the children.

She went to bed very late, and was drowsy. She felt the noise of noise outside the courtyard. She was not fully awake, and fell asleep again.

The next morning, Li Ma and Xu Saozi came to help her get up.

Xiaohong, who came back from the kitchen with food, said, "It's said outside that the third master was suddenly called to the palace by the emperor last night and sent to Liaozhou Prefecture on official business. He didn't even go back to the mansion. They also said that the third lady cried like a lot..."

Liaozhou Prefecture is an important town in the north of Dashun.

Chen Afu was startled, stood up and said, "I'll go to Anrong Hall." Then he walked out quickly.

Li Ma shouted from behind, "What if my brother wakes up?"

Chen Afu said, "If I don't come back, bring him to Anrong Hall."

On the way, Chen Afu thought that today was February 10th, and there were still sixteen days before Jin Yanzi could come out. If the Third Master can survive these sixteen days, when Jin Yanzi comes out, the insurance factor will be one more layer.

She came to Anrong Hall, crossed the corridor, and came to the hall of the back room. She saw the old marquis sitting on the Luohan bed with a gloomy face, and Chu Lingwei with red eyes accompanied him.

Chen Afu bowed to the old man. The old man said, "Granddaughter-in-law, go and persuade the Third Master's wife. We are prepared, and the Third Master will not be in trouble. If she is like this, it's not that the Third Master is fine, but she will be sick and can't get up first."

Chu Lingwei also said with tears in his eyes, "Sister-in-law, please persuade my mother. She has been crying for half a night."

Chen Afu entered the east room. Mrs. Chu San was leaning on the pillow, her eyes were red and swollen. Chu Lingzhi sat beside her and persuaded her. When he saw Chen Afu coming, he pouted and cried again.

After being in contact with Mrs. Chu for so long, Chen Afu had always seen that cheerful and optimistic woman. When she saw her so helpless and sad, Chen Afu's nose became sore.

She went over and took Mrs. Chu's hand and said, "Aunt San, don't be like this. We have been preparing for so long, and Uncle San will be fine." She said this with a guilty conscience, but she had to say it. Then he whispered, "Did Uncle San take that... that thing?"

Mrs. San choked up and said, "Yes. Every day before he goes out, I will check if he has it in his arms. Last night before he went out, I also checked."

Chen Afu nodded and said, "That's good. With that thing, Uncle San will always be safe."

Mrs. San shook her head and cried, "That thing is used to treat external injuries, but epidemics are far more terrible than external injuries."

Chen Afu asked, "Epidemic?"

The old marquis who came in waved his hand to let the servants in the room go out, saying, "Last night, the emperor suddenly summoned several important ministers to the palace to discuss matters. He said that he received an urgent message from 800 miles away that a county under the jurisdiction of Liaozhou Prefecture suffered a large-scale plague. There are a large number of Rongbian troops stationed around there, and there are more than a dozen large horse farms... The emperor asked the third brother and several officials to go first, and the others organized the imperial doctors, military doctors, veterinarians, and medicines to rush there later."

In that situation, no one dared to refuse to go. Even if Master Chu San knew that the road ahead was dangerous, he had to go.

The third wife sat up and hugged Chen Afu and cried again.

Chen Afu suddenly remembered that the old monk wanted green bird's nest in order to make medicine for Guiling monk to treat the epidemic.

She hurriedly said, "I remembered that when I saw Master Wuzhi last time, he seemed to have told Master Guiling about an epidemic outbreak and asked him to make medicine to treat the epidemic. The master and Master Guiling are both very skilled in medicine. They made preparations in advance and made medicine. The epidemic will definitely be quickly controlled. In addition, the master has calculated all these things and brought us the magic medicine in advance. Uncle San should be able to return safely."

The old marquis was happy and said, "Did the third wife hear it? Kuai Mo is sad. The epidemic can be controlled. The third brother brought the magic medicine, so he will be fine."
