"Ah, Shen Jin, how dare you hit me." Shen Zi screamed, but An Ping couldn't regain control of An Ning, and An Ping stood by Shen Jin's side, helping her to sit back on the chair.
Shen Jin looked at Shen Zi and asked, "Why didn't I dare? Didn't I already fight?"
"Shen Jin, you..." Shen Zi was about to go mad with anger, "You just married Uncle Yongning by relying on it. When you were in Prince Rui's mansion, you were just a dog following me."
Princess Rui frowned and said, "Shen Zi, do you want me to invite a nanny to the Zheng residence to educate you?"
Shen Zi's body froze, but Shen Jin didn't get angry at all, and said, "Well, I married Uncle Yongning by relying on it, so what? And second sister, are you in a daze? You and I are both father's king. Concubine, mother is a side concubine, so how can there be any difference between high and low?"
"What Miss Jin said is true." Princess Rui said, "If we really want to distinguish between superiors and inferiors, Miss Jin will be raised by my side."
Princess Rui has accumulated power for a long time, Shen Zi dared to speak to Shen Jin like that, but did not dare to speak to Princess Rui, Shen Jin sat beside Princess Rui, and said softly, "Mother and concubine, don't be angry, the second sister was a good person in the mansion back then." Yes, how did you become like this after marrying into the Zheng family in such a short time?"
When it came to the end, Shen Jin was already full of doubts, "Besides, the rules of the second sister were taught by the grandma in the palace, and that nanny was specially asked by the concubine to ask the emperor's grandmother to give it, why..."
Princess Rui said, "Oranges born in Huainan are tangerines, and those born in Huaibei are oranges, that's all."
The two people asked and answered, and they had stripped the responsibility of Prince Rui's Mansion. With the banner of the Empress Dowager, no one dared to say that the girls in Prince Rui's Mansion had bad manners. It's just affected, Mrs. Zheng has blood in her mouth, she dare not open her mouth to speak now, lest she be even more embarrassed, listening to the words of Princess Rui and Shen Jin, she couldn't help but spit out blood and two teeth. The Zheng family's scholarly family is a noble family, and what they are most proud of is the rules and demeanor of the house. Now even the only remaining honors have been ripped off.
Princess Rui said, "Although the second girl is married, she came out of the house after all. I don't care about it. She palms twenty times." After speaking, she looked at Princess Ruyang, "I still want to borrow you from Ruyang. The ruler of the house."
Princess Ru Yang secretly resented Shen Zi for failing to succeed in what she did, so she naturally ignored her, and said, "It's just what my aunt ordered, and someone will bring you a ruler."
Shen Zi shook her head vigorously, "Mother Concubine, you can't treat me like this." If she was beaten with a ruler in Princess Ruyang's mansion today, no one will invite her to be a guest again, and the Zheng family... thinking of Mrs. Shen Zi only felt chills in her heart, "You can't treat me like this, I want to find my father, my father will not allow you to treat me like this."
Stupid, Princess Ruyang looked at Shen Zi's appearance, not to mention that King Rui was not here at all, even if King Rui was there, she would not care about Shen Zi for the sake of face.
Soon a maid brought the ruler, Princess Rui said, "Cuixi, you go."
"Yes." Cui Xi took the ruler with both hands, walked up to Shen Zi and said, "Second Princess, this servant has offended you."
"No...you dare, I'm going to kill you..." Shen Zi's voice became sharper and more frightened.
An Ning gave Shen Zi's right hand out, and Shen Zi held her hand tightly, but she didn't know where An Ning pinched, Shen Zi only felt sore and weak, and could no longer hold her fist. "Ah..." Shen Zi's scream was very ear-piercing. Because of the incident just now, all the people who admired the flowers in the plum garden gathered together. At this moment, Shen Zi's scream focused all eyes on She was on her body, even the people outside the courtyard heard it. Looking at the scene in front of them, no one spoke.
Princess Rui looked at Mrs. Zheng, "I punished Shen Zi, but... how did my good daughter become like this in Zheng's house?"
The Zheng family is famous but has no real power. Even if someone thinks the Zheng family is innocent, they will not talk too much at this time. They will only think that it is Mrs. Zheng's bad luck to marry a daughter-in-law like Shen Zi.
Princess Rui said, "Twenty slaps, I just hope to see her again next time, and she will behave like before."
Madam Zheng's dress was covered with blood she vomited, there were still two teeth on the ground, her cheeks were red and swollen, and even her hair was disheveled. She looked extremely miserable at this moment, but the mother-in-law didn't have any sympathy. The concubine's order, and Princess Ruyang's order to let them listen to Concubine Rui just now, slapped Mrs. Zheng's face fiercely.
Standing outside the pavilion, Shen Zi looked at everything in front of her eyes, but she was thinking in her heart that things would have turned out like this if Uncle Yongning was not here. There are also Princess Zhaoyang and Princess Chenyang who are standing next to her. I am afraid that these three will not be spared.
After beating Mrs. Zheng and Shen Zi, Princess Rui got up and said, "It's my fault for disturbing Ru Yang's interest today. Please invite Ru Yang to my house another day, and then hold a banquet in honor of Ru Yang."
Princess Ru Yang said, "It's because Ru Yang didn't entertain well."
Princess Rui smiled, glanced at Mrs. Zheng and Shen Zi, and said, "Ru Yang has a heart, I will leave with my two daughters first, so we won't delay everyone's fun."
Both Shen Qi and Shen Jin followed Princess Rui. Princess Ru Yang hated her to death, but she still had to smile on her face, and she took her two younger sisters to send Princess Rui away in person.
After returning to Prince Rui's mansion, Princess Rui asked Shen Qi and Shen Jin to go back to rest first, and she had to talk to King Rui about what happened today.
Both Concubine Chen and Nanny Zhao were waiting for Shen Jin in the yard, because they didn't expect to come back so early, and they were relieved to see that Shen Jin was fine, and Nanny Zhao said, "Old servant, go take a look at the kitchen, madam Is your favorite sugar-steamed crispy cheese ready? If it's ready, Ma'am, I'll put it on first. Is there anything you want to use at noon?"
"I want noodles." Shen Jin said, "I want beef."
"Okay." Zhao Mama responded immediately, and went down to get busy.
Shen Jin looked at Anping and Anning and said, "You two are tired today, so go down and have a rest."
An Ping and An Ning respectfully responded, and went down to change clothes to freshen up. Concubine Chen poured Shen Jin a bowl of red date soup before asking, "But what happened?"
"Nothing happened." Shen Jin thought for a while and said, holding the hot jujube soup in both hands, he took two sips, "It's just that the mother concubine asked someone to slap Mrs. Zheng's mouth, and then hit Shen Zi with a ruler."
In Shen Jin's mouth, no matter what kind of thing it is, it's like when everyone is worried about Yongningbo's disappearance, only Shen Jin always thinks that Yongningbo will come back safely, because he promised.
Concubine Chen frowned and said, "What's going on?"
"It's a little troublesome to say." Shen Jin sipped the red date soup, "It was Shen Zi who cried and complained that life in Zheng's mansion was not good, and the mother and concubine asked someone to pass Mrs. After saying some bad things, the concubine mother said that she became unruly after marrying into Zheng's mansion, so she was palmed, and Madam Zheng was slapped twenty times."
Concubine Chen took a breath, Shen Jin looked at Concubine Chen and said, "If mother is curious, when Anping comes, let her tell mother to listen."
"En." Concubine Chen said, "Are you hungry? Do you want some more pastries?"
Shen Jin thought for a while and nodded, "I'm a little sleepy and a little hungry."
"Sleep after lunch." Concubine Chen stretched out her hand to touch Shen Jin's hand, and said after seeing that it was already warm.
Shen Jin nodded.
Inside Minzhong Mansion, Xi Yunjing said, "Now that your daughter-in-law is pregnant, you don't want to go to a place like the execution ground."
Chu Xiuming was wearing an official uniform and was arranging his sleeves and said, "It seems that if I don't go, I didn't give the order. Besides, it's not like asking my wife to go to that kind of place."
Xi Yunjing reached out and took the imperial decree and handed it to Chu Xiuming, saying, "That's true, besides, killing those people is also a good deed."
Holding the imperial decree, Chu Xiuming narrowed his eyes and said, "You wait for me on the boat."
Xi Yunjing stretched his waist and said, "Okay, it's finally almost over."
Chu Xiuming nodded and walked out of the house. He spent a long time negotiating with these people, secretly contacting the old Chu family, sending people to the barracks, and collecting all kinds of criminal evidence... Arranged step by step, for today.
At this time, the execution ground was already full of people, and many of the onlookers were blocked by soldiers. Not only were they excited, but they seemed to be in disbelief. The moment they saw Chu Xiuming, they were still whispering to each other. They all stopped and looked at Chu Xiuming in unison.
Chu Xiuming stepped onto the temporary wooden platform and said, "Take the prisoner."
The executioners this time were all soldiers. After Chu Xiuming’s words fell, he saw a group of soldiers escorting five people and making them kneel on the ground facing the common people. The one in the middle was Mr. Liang. Chu Xiuming's expression seemed to want to pounce on him and bite off his flesh fiercely. Chu Xiuming's face was serious, his voice was low, and he unfolded the imperial decree with a shake of his hand, and said, "Your Majesty sent me here to get rid of you People." The identities and crimes of these five people were revealed one by one, and when he said the last sentence, Chu Xiuming held the hand of the imperial decree tightly, "You are the big officials of one party, and you should benefit the people of one party, but you are in vain. Trusting the people, he actually massacred the people and pretended to be a military leader, kill."
After the last word fell, the executioner swung down the big knife in his hand fiercely, and the head of the person who had been showing off his might a few days ago had fallen to the ground, blood spurting out.
"God..."
"Father, someone finally avenged you..."
After the first cheers came from the crowd, there was a cry of pain, and even the faces of the soldiers were a little moved.
Chu Xiuming had the corpses dragged down and piled aside, and ten more people were brought up. This time Chu Xiuming didn't speak, but the people around him spoke and read the identities of these people, all of whom were family members of the offending officials. Among them was Liang Yi, Liang Yi shouted, "Chu Xiuming, you are ungrateful..."
"Liang Yi, in the 19th year of Yongqi, in order to seize the family heirloom of the Wang family, he framed and murdered 37 members of the Wang family. In the 20th year of Yongqi..." Chu Xiuming recounted all the things Liang Yi did, sometimes even If there was a disagreement, Liang Yi killed his whole family. He really regarded human life as nothing.
"Kill." The colleague who fell behind Chu Xiuming's words, the executioner's knife also fell.
These officials are rich, with wives and concubines in groups, and countless children. All the men over ten years old were taken to the execution ground today. After these people were cut down, the executioners also went down, and a new batch of executioners came over. And all the people seemed to be tireless, except when they called out the identities of these people, they would be quiet for a while, and cheered for the rest of the time, even shouting Yongningbo's name.
This group of people who were brought up were obviously generals in the army, and they were the ones who colluded with Mr. Liang and others to deceive the superiors and subordinates to commit heinous crimes. More Sheng said, "My Chu family has already made military achievements, but I, Chu Xiuming, dare to swear to the sky that everyone I kill is the one who deserves to be killed, and the place where the sword points is the place to be slaughtered. It is well deserved, and the blood of innocent people in our Tianqi Dynasty will never be stained, do you dare?"
Chu Xiuming narrowed his eyes to hide the disappointment in his heart, "I also hope that I have wronged you, and you are calling for injustice at this time. What about those innocent people who were killed? Aren't they even more wronged? Kill."
The corpses were piled up one after another. In the end, these people found that the people who were pressed up turned out to be people they knew. They looked at each other for a while, but some people who knew the truth felt relieved and shouted, "Kill! Kill them white-eyed wolves."
"What's going on?" Someone asked in a low voice.
The face of the crying man was full of tears and wrinkles, as if he had experienced all the hardships and vicissitudes, "These beasts, they are the ones who colluded with the pirates! It is them, they lead the way for those beasts, live and die. Finding out my granddaughter who hid in the mountains was a disaster... Just because my granddaughter didn't want to marry that beast, he led people to kill people from my granddaughter's village... Beast..."
"No wonder... no wonder the villages devastated by those pirates have enemies with these people..."
Many people cried and cried, some of them were true and some of them were false, but they had no choice. Many things were placed on these people, but these people were not wronged, they had done such things.
"I was forced. If I didn't lead the way, someone else would lead the way... But they will kill me..."
Chu Xiuming felt very uncomfortable. In fact, he had been hesitating about whether these people should be killed or not. They were certainly guilty, but the biggest sin was on these central Fujian officials. The article was read out, and dozens of people who actively colluded with the pirates were beheaded like their predecessors, and the rest were brought up, but Chu Xiuming did not kill him again, but said, "You can be exempted from death, but live It is impossible to escape, I will set off immediately to suppress the bandits, if you are willing, you can go with me, and you will be exempted from punishment if you kill ten bandits, if you don’t want to go, you will be exiled for thousands of miles according to the original criminal law."
After finishing speaking, Chu Xiuming stopped looking at these people, and just said, "Go and register them, and distribute weapons and armor to those who are willing, and put them in prison first if they don't want to go."
Chu Xiuming's resolute actions naturally made many people angry, but it is inevitable that some people's hearts will be unstable, so he will use this blood to lead people to suppress the bandits after killing people. As long as he wins the battle, the rest things are arranged.
The boat and soldiers were ready. Chu Xiuming changed his official uniform and stood at the bow of the boat in silver armor. Xi Yunjing, who was also wearing armor, stood beside Chu Xiuming and said, "This battle must be won."
"En." Chu Xiuming responded, "At that time, Minzhong will be handed over to you."
Xi Yunjing let out a breath slowly, and suddenly smiled, "If my grandfather saw my current appearance, he would definitely not be able to recognize me."
"It's time for you to start a family." Chu Xiuming said.
Xi Yunjing stretched out his hands to cover his eyes and said, "Yeah, I can't let the Xi family die when it comes to me, but how many people still remember the Xi family?"
Chu Xiuming said with a sore heart, "We remember, many people remember."
Xi Yunjing took a deep breath, "Then you go back and ask your siblings to help me pay attention."
Chu Xiuming thought of Shen Jin, and said, "Okay."
Shen Xuan thought it would take a lot of effort to find Chu Xiuming, but he didn't expect to be found by someone as soon as he entered Minzhong. It was Chu Xiuming who sent someone to wait for him at the gate of the city, but Shen Xuan came Unfortunately, I missed it with Chu Xiuming.
After learning about Chu Xiuming's news all of a sudden, Shen Xuan still felt a little unreal. After hearing the guard's report, Shen Xuan just felt dumbfounded. He knew that his brother-in-law was very powerful, but he didn't expect it to be so powerful, " What if the news reaches Beijing and China?"
"The general said it's all right." The guard came from the border city and said, "The evidence is solid. When the time comes, I will take the heads of those pirates and show them to the capital, and ask the painter to paint them and send them to the capital for His Majesty. It’s a great achievement, this time the ship brought a lot of coarse salt.”
Even if Shen Xuan didn't know anything, he felt that Emperor Cheng would not be happy to receive this gift, unless there was Chu Xiuming's head on the top of the Beijing Temple, and coarse salt? Shen Xuan was stunned for a moment before realizing what the coarse salt was for.
Shen Xuan didn't dare to say this, but just asked, "I still have the letter from your general's wife here."
"The general said that he will come back in ten days or five days at most, just let the prince wait here with peace of mind." The guard said, "If the prince has nothing to do, he can help organize the income from the house raids and count the current situation. How many families are there in central Fujian, the number of people in each family, and the approximate amount of property."
Looking at Shen Xuan's expression, the guard said, "This is also what the general said."
Shen Xuan gritted his teeth and said, "My brother-in-law really thinks highly of me."
The guard smiled and said, "The general said he was eager to go home, so he asked the prince to help him a lot."
Although Shen Xuan had a tangled look on his face, he was happy and moved by Chu Xiuming's trust in his heart. Even Princess Rui, the mother, had never valued him so much. Presumably his ability was recognized by Chu Xiuming. "Okay, go and arrange the people I brought."
"Yes." The guard agreed.
On the warship, Xi Yunjing looked at the chart and asked, "Is it really okay to leave those things to Prince Rui's son?"
"En." Chu Xiuming narrowed his eyes, clicked a few places, looked at the general in the room and said, "When the time comes, follow this direction..."
After Chu Xiuming finished speaking, the generals were all ordered to go out, Xi Yunjing asked again, "Are you sure there is no problem?"
"Of course someone will do those things." Chu Xiuming then said, "It's just through his status as Prince Rui's son."
Xi Yunjing thought for a while and nodded, "It makes sense."
I don't know if Shen Xuan, the son of King Rui who is being moved, will think that Chu Xiuming is a good person if he knows this.
Chu Xiuming didn't mean to block the news, and even wrote a memorial to Emperor Cheng himself, but he didn't hurry. When Emperor Cheng received this memorial, the matter in central Fujian was a foregone conclusion, even Jingguan also It has been built, not far from the pier.
Shen Xuan's whole body is black and thin, and his overall appearance is good. To everyone's surprise, Shen Xuan has a talent for these vulgar things. Fix a lot of things.
"Brother-in-law, do you really want to give this painting to His Majesty?" Shen Xuan looked at the Beijing view map drawn by the artist, and asked with a somewhat embarrassed expression.
Chu Xiuming looked at Shen Xuan with raised eyebrows and said, "Naturally, it would be bad if His Majesty didn't know about such a grand event."
Shen Xuan thought for a while and didn't say anything else. Anyway, Chu Xiuming was confident in doing things, "By the way, what did my sister write in the letter?" The matter of the day was solved in three days.
Mentioning Shen Jin, Chu Xiuming's eyes softened a little, but he didn't speak, he just ordered, "according to this, distribute the property obtained from the house raids, and if evidence can be produced, return what should be returned to the people. "
"Shouldn't you say hello to His Majesty about this matter?" Shen Xuan asked.
Chu Xiuming said, "Your Majesty has orders, let me do things cheaply."
"That's right." Shen Xuan sighed, "However, these people are really greedy for ink. Even after distributing these, there will still be a lot left, His Majesty will be satisfied after thinking about it."
But Chu Xiuming didn't open his mouth, Shen Xuan took the things Chu Xiuming had settled down and left, Xi Yunjing then came out from behind and said, "Your Majesty is still too naive, how can you give away what you have in your hand?"
"I still have to give some." Chu Xiuming said, "Except for the three floors that are distributed to the soldiers and generals, the remaining two floors are for you, and the fifth floor is transported to the border town."
Xi Yunjing nodded. Chu Xiuming said that the affairs of Central Fujian were entrusted to him, and he did not let him take care of them publicly. After all, Xi Yunjing did not have an official position. , to the capital, and the rest to..."
Chu Xiuming spoke in a low voice, and Xi Yunjing wrote it all down, "Don't worry."
The two discussed for a while, and after confirming that there was nothing missing, Xi Yunjing asked, "By the way, what exactly did my brother and sister write to you?"
Chu Xiuming looked at Xi Yunjing and said nothing, Xi Yunjing looked at each other for a while, then shrugged and said, "Well, I don't want to know that much, it's rare, I will soon have a wife, and someone will give me a letter at that time."
"En." Chu Xiuming just uttered a word and pointed to the door. The corner of Xi Yunjing's eyes twitched before he went out.
When no one was around, Chu Xiuming leaned back on the chair, showing a little tiredness on his face, and stretched out his hand to rub the center of his brows. In fact, Shen Jin's letter only wrote a sentence, and also drew a flower like cotton. Xiu Ming recognized it for a long time before he was sure that it was the little one, probably because he was not around, the little one was too fat.
Thinking of what Shen Jin wrote, Chu Xiuming's eyes softened a lot. Shen Jin only wrote eight words on the letter, "Why haven't you come back yet?"
Thinking of his little lady's expression when she wrote these words, Chu Xiuming darkened his chest with his right hand, where there was a safety clasp carved with warm jade, "Soon, I'm going back soon."
The news in Minzhong, even if Emperor Cheng wanted to hide it this time, he couldn’t hide it, because it was handed over from below, and many officials have already read it, and Prince Rui’s Mansion naturally knows it. Shen Jin has been there for six months now When she was pregnant, the most anticipated thing every day became when she felt the baby in her belly move. Thinking of the first time the baby moved, Shen Jin was so scared that she thought she was going to give birth, and almost cried, Shen Jin felt funny. At this time Lying on the imperial concubine chair, with the cushion specially made by Zhao Momo and the others beside her, she was slowly reading a book of war in her hand.
Concubine Chen finds it funny every time she sees her daughter reading military books to her children in a serious manner, especially after reading Shen Jin for a while, she will feel a little dizzy. Exchange?"
"No." Shen Jin yawned, put down the book of war, took a sip of brown sugar water and said, "Husband is a general, so powerful, our child will definitely be better than him in the future."
"Why?" Concubine Chen teased her daughter on purpose.
Shen Jin smiled a little smugly, because she had been raised all the time, her complexion was ruddy and she became fatter, and her dimples became more obvious when she laughed, "Of course it's because the child's mother is so smart."
Concubine Chen laughed, "You are the only one who is naughty."
Zhao Nanny brought the walnut cheese and said, "This old slave thinks what Madam said is reasonable."
Shen Jin nodded and said, "Nurse still loves me."
Concubine Chen thought of Chu Xiuming who hadn't heard from him yet, and sighed slightly in her heart, but said nothing on her face, "When Uncle Yongning comes back, don't be so mischievous again."
Shen Jin puffed up her cheeks, "My husband doesn't think so." She moved her lips again, and muttered, "If my husband doesn't come back, I will ignore him."
"At that time, we will ignore the general." Mother Zhao said.
Shen Jin hugged her stomach and laughed, "No way, Madam Zhao must have said that my husband is getting thinner and I want to make delicious food for him." After speaking, she pointed and lay down on the ground and gnawed on Yongle Hou Shizi, who was specially bought by someone. The beef bones cooked for the little one said, "When the husband comes back, the little one will be in trouble."
As if hearing his own name, Xiao Budian looked up at Shen Jin, "Wow?"
Shen Jin started laughing again, but she didn't dare to make it too loud. Seeing her silly daughter like this, Concubine Chen thought of that sentence for some reason. She has been pregnant for three years and her own daughter is already stupid enough. Go down... It's better for Yongning Bo to come back sooner.
Concubine Chen said with some concern, "Princess Ruyang and the son-in-law have already gone to the border town, are they really alright?"
"It's okay." Shen Jin said indifferently, "My brother is here."
Zhao Momo also smiled, "Don't worry, side concubine, Beijing has not sent people to border towns in recent years, and there have been no troubles."
Shen Jin nodded, "Just keep it."
Concubine Chen took a look at her daughter and said, "It's not as easy as you said."
Shen Jin blinked, and smiled without any intention of explaining, but Mother Zhao knew that what Shen Jin said was really true, but no one believed it.
Suddenly, An Ning hurried in from the outside, and Mother Zhao asked, "What's wrong?"
"There is news about the general." An Ning said with a smile, "Sister Cuixi is here, waiting outside."
"Please." Shen Jin said.
An Ning responded and invited Cuixi to come in. Cuixi is the most useful to Princess Rui. It is not an exaggeration for An Ning to call her sister. After entering, Cuixi saluted Shen Jin and Concubine Chen and said, " The prince just came back and told the news about Uncle Yongning to the concubine, and the concubine asked the slaves to tell the three princesses, which also made the three princesses happy."
Shen Xuan is an honest person, because he didn't know Chu Xiuming's arrangement, and he was afraid that Emperor Cheng would find out when he sent the letter back to Beijing, which ruined Chu Xiuming's arrangement. The news that the classroom only knew.
Cuixi learned what King Rui said, and Concubine Chen's heart was relieved. She didn't care what Yongningbo did, as long as Yongningbo was alive and safe.
"Reward." Shen Jin waited for Cuixi to finish speaking, then said with a smile.
Cuixi did not refuse this time, Anping took a purse and put it in Cuixi's hand, Cuixi thanked her before putting it away.
"Princess Wang said, let the princess feel at ease. I think that Yongningbo will come back in a while. Then let the prince teach Yongningbo a lesson. Although he has made great contributions to the country, the princess has been wronged." Cui Cui Xi said.
Shen Jin smiled and nodded, "Okay!"
Cuixi said a few more words before leaving first.
Shen Jin was sitting on the imperial concubine's couch with her stomach in her hands, and Concubine Chen said, "Thank God, it's fine."
Zhao Nanny also smiled and said, "Madam can feel at ease now."
Shen Jin didn't say anything, as if he was thinking about something, he suddenly asked, "If the child in my stomach is a girl, wouldn't it be bad for me to read military books to her?"
"..." Concubine Chen, who was about to go to worship Buddha, paused, and turned to look at her daughter.
The joy on Zhao Nanny's face also froze, An Ping and An Ning looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Shen Jin pursed her lips and became more serious, thought for a while and said, "Forget it, let him figure out a way when my husband comes back."
Chu Xiuming didn't know that he hadn't gone back yet, his little lady had already prepared a difficult problem, and when he finished handling all the matters in Minzhong, he took the people on the road with light clothes, and handed over the rest of the things to Xi Yunjing for arrangement. the capital.
On the day of arriving in the capital, it was snowing heavily, and at the gate of Prince Rui's Mansion, Chu Xiuming got off his horse, and the guards knocked on the gate of Prince Rui's Mansion...
Shen Jin was sitting in the house, with a charcoal basin at her feet, on which was a shelf specially made by someone. She has recently become obsessed with roasted sweet potatoes, but Zhao Mama won't let her eat more, so she can only eat a small amount every day. Anping, Anping turned the sweet potato over and said, "It will be ready soon, madam, don't worry."
"Enen." Shen Jin nodded and said, "It will taste better after roasting for a while."
Shen Jin has always been patient with food.
Chu Xiuming told someone, and walked towards Mo Yunyuan quickly without even going to see King Rui and Princess Rui, which was faster than the person who passed the news.
The little boy who was playing by himself in the snow stood up abruptly, moved his ears, and ran towards the gate of the courtyard. When passing by An Ning, he brushed past her legs without stopping, startled An Ning and shouted, " little guy."
The little one didn't care about An Ning, An Ning hurriedly put down his things and went after him, and saw the little one rushing towards a person wearing a dark cloak, and shouted happily, "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."
It was Chu Xiuming who came, and he took the little one, picked him up with one hand, and said, "It's time for training."
"Aww..." Xiao Budian stretched out his tongue and licked Chu Xiuming vigorously.
Chu Xiuming let go of the little one, put it on the ground and glanced at An Ning.
Shen Jin, who was waiting for roasted sweet potatoes in the room, was stunned for a moment when he heard the little boy's voice, and suddenly raised his head to look at the door, stood up with one hand on his stomach and the other on the handrail, and walked outside. Anping was stunned and shouted, "Ma'am." He quickly grabbed the cloak and rushed up, only to see that Shen Jin didn't go out, but stood at the gate, looking at the people in the yard.
Naturally, Chu Xiuming also saw Shen Jin, and immediately untied the cloak. The snow on his body fell to the ground along with the cloak. Then he walked towards Shen Jin and said, "It's cold outside."
Shen Jin moved his lips, and waited for Chu Xiuming to approach before grabbing his hand. He felt that it was very cold, and quickly pulled him into the room. He looked at Chu Xiuming with red eyes, and Chu Xiuming smelled it as soon as he entered the room. With the smell of roasted sweet potatoes, I took a look and reached out to the charcoal basin to warm my hands. I was sure that my hands would not be cold, and my body would no longer feel cold. Then I touched Shen Jin's face and said, "I'm back. "
An Ping and An Ning retreated quietly, and closed the door intimately. Mother Zhao and Concubine Chen were also outside the house. The two of them were all smiling. Mother Zhao said, "I'm afraid the general is getting thinner, I'll make some Good stuff, with the general accompanying Madam, I can definitely use it more."
Shen Jin finally couldn't hold back, grabbed Chu Xiuming's hand and pressed it to his face, and said softly, "Why did you just come back?"
A simple sentence, with the meaning of acting like a baby, but also has indescribable sadness and sadness.
"My belly is getting bigger." Shen Jin cried. She has always been a delicate person, but she couldn't be coquettish when she was in Prince Rui's Mansion. After marrying Chu Xiuming, those little squeamishness have also been cultivated into a big squeamishness, "At night The leg still hurts..."
