For several days in a row, Shen Ruolan spent in anxiety and uneasiness.
She has been trying her best to find Chunyuxuan, Susu and Yinyin have been sent out by her, using their own methods to search for him within a hundred miles. She herself was not idle, and led Heizi to search around the nearby villages, inquiring, trying to find out his whereabouts as soon as possible.
However, seven or eight times passed in a flash, and there was still no news of Chun Yuzheng, as if he had evaporated out of thin air in the world, disappearing without a trace, leaving no trace of clues.
Finally, Shen Ruolan couldn't sit still anymore, and decided to go to Jizhou to have a look, maybe she went in the wrong direction, and he had already returned to Jizhou. So, she took Susu and Yinyin, hired a carriage newly bought by Gou Shengzi, and went all the way to Jizhou.
Uncle Shen and Aunt Shen left on the second day after New Year's Day, five or six days earlier than Shen Ruolan and the others, because Shen Ruolan's marriage fell through, Uncle Shen sincerely felt sorry for Shen Ruolan, but Aunt Shen obviously felt sorry for Shen Ruolan. When she went to say goodbye to Shen Ruolan's house, she said that she had prepared a gift of five taels of silver for Shen Ruolan, but it's a pity that her niece's bridegroom was gone, and the marriage couldn't be consummated. Had to take it back!
Shen Dejian's family didn't care about her five taels of silver at first, and they wished that she would take the silver and leave quickly. What's more, the five taels of silver means that she deliberately sold it because she saw that the marriage was not going to happen. If she was really asked to keep the old money, she would not agree to it even if she was killed.
Facing her ignorance, Mu's counterattack was very gentle, "Sister-in-law has a heart, but it doesn't matter, the three children in the family have no owners yet, when the time comes, there must be something to spend your five taels of money !"
She said this in public when everyone came to visit Shen Ruolan and comfort Shen Ruolan at home, so that everyone could testify for her. He will definitely laugh at her to death! "
Aunt Shen originally wanted to have a quick talk, happy and happy, but she didn't expect her second daughter-in-law to get involved, and she felt very regretful in her heart. It was five taels of silver, which was enough to buy a lot of food. How could it be possible? What about giving it to others for nothing
So, after Mrs. Mu finished saying this, she didn't dare to say anything more, for fear that if she was not careful, she would get caught by the second daughter-in-law. This dead old woman looks weak and weak, but she doesn't suffer at all from her mouth!
Seeing that his sister-in-law had stopped, Mrs. Mu stopped talking to her. The best way to deal with this kind of troublemaker is not to accommodate her, but to just treat her like a stinky piece of shit. up...
On the same day, Aunt Shen went back to Jizhou with a bad complexion, and she was also in the car of Goushengzi. After Goushengzi sent Uncle Shen and Aunt Shen back to Jizhou, he sent Shen Ruolan right after. Yes, I'm almost overwhelmed, the business is really booming, and the money is so soft!
*****
During this period, a small event happened in the capital, that is—Princess An'an was pregnant.
On New Year's Day, An An went to the house of Princess Rongxin as a guest. Considering that her stupid son had already identified her, the Princess would not be that villain, so she simply accepted her and kept her in the house. I ate.
Unexpectedly, during the meal, because there was a sea fish, Princess An'an saw it, and suddenly felt extremely sick, nauseated and vomited, and even vomited out the breakfast in his stomach.
Seeing this, the eldest princess hurriedly sent an imperial doctor to give her a diagnosis and treatment, so as not to blame her son for something wrong with her.
As a result, after the imperial doctor came to check for a while, he excitedly said that she was pregnant!
Princess Rong Xin has only one son, Lu Yuan, and she has been looking forward to having a grandson for a long time. Seeing that An An is pregnant, she is so happy that she can't find her, and throws all the dissatisfaction with her away In the back of her head, she was thinking of her white and fat grandson wholeheartedly. Except for the grandson she hadn't met yet, the old lady cared about everything else, and immediately made a request to the Queen Mother to propose marriage.
The Empress Dowager Xiaoduan already knew that An An lost her life to Lu Yuan. Now that she even has a child, she of course can no longer let her be her daughter-in-law, so she made it easy for them and allowed Rong Xin to marry her. A request from the eldest princess.
With the Queen Mother's permission, Princess Rongxin immediately started to discuss their marriage, fearing that An An's stomach would not wait for anyone, she decided to take An An to Jizhou to get married, otherwise her son would be busy with military affairs all day long, and she might not know when she could get married. Come back to do errands when he is free. When he has time to come back, An An's belly will have grown up, and he will be laughed at by scary people. She doesn't want her precious grandson to be criticized as soon as he comes out!
So, after much deliberation, it would be safer to send her to Jizhou to get married.
An An didn't object to her proposal either. She is pregnant now, and this idea will soon spread to the entire aristocratic circle in the capital. If so, she would really have no face to stay in the aristocratic society. Just pack up and go to Jizhou to marry Lu Yuan...
Although Lu Yuan is not as good as Chun Yuyu in terms of financial resources, ability, appearance and status, he can be regarded as a dragon and a phoenix among men. There are as many women who want to marry him as there are crucian carp in the river. He loves himself sincerely, and it can be regarded as one of the few destinations!
Soon, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law packed up their things, sat in two gorgeous carriages, surrounded by a team of family guards, and headed for Jizhou in a mighty way!
*****
At the same time, the eyeliner placed by the queen mother in the north also sent a letter to Beijing, telling her about the accident of the seventh child. When the queen mother heard the bad news, she thought that Chunyu was hopelessly hopeless, and suddenly felt as if the sky had collapsed. , completely disregarding the queen mother's demeanor and dignity, like an old lady who has lost her beloved son, lying on the couch rolling and crying, crying so hard that she almost vomited blood...
The palace people tried hard to persuade her, fearing that she would break down from crying and would not be able to explain, so they had to report the matter to the emperor and queen.
The emperor and empress heard about this and hurried to Shouxian Palace to visit. As soon as the Empress Dowager Xiaoduan saw the emperor, she pointed at his nose and cursed, "You are mean and ungrateful, cold-blooded and suspicious, not fraternal or filial, don't read Sibling beasts...
As soon as they met, Emperor Jian'an scolded Emperor Jian'an so disgracefully that he was bloody, and Emperor Jian'an did not dare to refute. After listening to the empress dowager's scolding with a blank face, he said in a cold voice, "If my son said that my son did not harm the old man Seven, does the queen mother believe it?"
"You don't have to ask, my mother definitely doesn't believe it. Ever since I was a child, my mother has been partial to Lao Qi. No matter how much trouble Lao Qi has caused or how outrageous things he has done, my mother will always forgive him. I knew that I would not be favored by my mother. Although my son has always been cautious and fearful in front of my mother, and obeyed my mother in everything, my mother just doesn't like my son. It seems that only Lao Qi is your son, and I brought it here.
"You fart, if the Ai family only cares about Lao Qi, how can you sit in the position of the Ninth Five-Year Supreme? The old Qi is far better than the emperor in terms of culture and military strategy, and his mind and tolerance are also stronger than the emperor. If the Ai family is partial He, how could he let you aspire to be a great treasure? How could he give you a chance to kill his foot?" Empress Dowager Xiaoduan cried out in grief and indignation.
Hearing the Queen Mother's words, Emperor Jian'an sneered and said, "What the Queen Mother said is as if the throne was passed on to me by the Queen Mother. Don't forget that Lao Qi was a rebellious minister who committed the crime of killing the late emperor's favorite concubine. Thief, even if the queen mother wants to make him emperor, how can the former emperor agree? If the former king is willing, I am afraid I will not have the opportunity to rule the world... "
"Your Majesty, how could you say such heartbreaking words?" The Empress Dowager was so angry that she forgot to cry, she stared blankly at Emperor Jian'an and couldn't believe her ears.
Emperor Jian'an looked at the queen mother coldly, and said word by word, "Punish your heart? If you think your son's words are punishing, don't you think the mother will punish you if you don't come? You were also born in October of your pregnancy, so why is the mother partial to him? Why do you say that he is better than me in every way? Don't say that my ability is not inferior to him, but my ability is really not as good as him? At least I am also an honest gentleman who keeps his own place, unlike him who disobeyed his father, made military talismans privately, coveted artifacts, and was ambitious like a wolf , such a person will be cast aside by the world even if he is alive, and will be stigmatized for thousands of years when he dies. In the whole world, only the queen mother will think that he is good, he is better than me!"
"You said that he disobeyed his father, made military talismans privately, coveted artifacts, and was ambitious... So, you really sent someone to kill him?" Empress Dowager Xiaoduan cried sadly.
Emperor Jian'an didn't admit it, nor denied it, but said coldly, "Empress Mother can do whatever she wants, anyway, no matter what I say, Empress Mother will think that I did it."
"You did it, you don't have to quibble!" The Queen Mother shouted angrily, "I know how powerful Lao Qi's subordinates are. In the whole world, besides you, who else's hidden guard can beat him?" What about the hidden guard? Besides you, who else would want to get rid of him quickly? You don’t have to admit it, and you don’t have to pretend to be confused, although Aijia is old, he understands it in his heart.”
Emperor Jian'an smiled coldly when he heard the words, "Since the mother understands in her heart, she should know that her son is no longer the poor wretch who lives by watching people's eyes, but the emperor of the Chu Kingdom. Yan Jiuding, who holds the power of life and death in the world, in the whole world, whoever I want to kill, whoever does not die is disloyal."
What Emperor Jian'an said was equivalent to a disguised admission that he was indeed the one who dealt with Chunyuxuan. When the Queen Mother heard this, she felt her heart was broken.
Although she had already guessed that he did it, but hearing him admit it, her heart still hurt like a knife.
Poor her two sons, they killed each other, and one of them killed the other.
And the one who was killed was still her favorite!
She lowered her head and buried her face in her palms, and after a long time, she sobbed and said, "Go away, from now on, the Ai family will not have such an unfilial son as you, and you don't have to come here to say hello to the Ai family again." , Aijia can't afford your big gift!"
Emperor Jian'an bowed his hands to her and said, "My son thinks he has a clear conscience. If he insists on blaming him behind the scenes, there is nothing he can do. My son is gone. Please take care of your mother!"
After speaking, he turned around and strode away.
Empress Chen saw that the mother and son had completely turned their backs, a gloating smile flashed across her eyes.
This old bastard, in order to consolidate her position, puts people around the emperor every day, regardless of how her daughter-in-law feels. Now it's all right, she broke up with the emperor, those vixens she sent over It must be no good to follow their master!
Empress Chen stood up, first pretended to comfort the queen mother, then changed the subject and said, "Mother, the daughter-in-law has also gone back. Seeing that the new year is coming, there are still a lot of things in the palace waiting for the daughter-in-law to do." Well, the queen mother doesn't have to be sad, it's a blessing if you lose your horse, maybe the seventh child will come back after a while..."
If Empress Chen knew that she was an eloquent person and said what she said, she would definitely not have said what she just said. She would have said, "King Zhan died outside a long time ago, and his body was burned to ashes and buried... .." Then dig out his ashes and throw them into the river to feed the fish!
"Go away, you are not a good thing, I am even angrier if I leave you in front of me. As a woman, the husband is at fault, and as a wife, I don't know how to admonish him, but let him kill each other. You have such a heart How come I haven't seen the unruly thing?"
After all, Empress Chen is the empress of the Central Palace. She has always been pampered, sought after and flattered by others. She couldn't accept being pointed at her nose and scolded like this for a while.
