Zhao Ru looked at King Rui and said, "Of course, you don't have to go back, for example, because you were injured or assassinated."
King Rui was overjoyed just now, but his face changed quickly. He looked at Zhao Ru with a serious face and said, "If there is no emperor's younger brother that King Ying's son started talking about, this is naturally possible, but now, Emperor Cheng only You'll think I'm evading it on purpose."
Princess Rui and Chu Xiuming also came over. Princess Rui glanced at King Rui, sat beside him, and said, "Has the lord made a decision?"
Chu Xiuming also said, "Father-in-law, if you want, I will escort you and mother-in-law to the border town. Even if Emperor Cheng orders father-in-law to go back at that time, I can keep you both."
King Rui's eyes lit up for a moment, but then dimmed again, "The current situation, according to Emperor Cheng's temperament... Unless I die or I will be taken care of by him, otherwise, I am afraid that my mother will be involved."
Regardless of whether the Queen Mother is a good person or a bad person, or what she has done, she is still very good to King Rui's son, so it is impossible for Emperor Cheng to leave the Queen Mother alone.
Chu Xiuming didn't say anything, because what King Rui said was right. With Emperor Cheng's temperament, if he encounters setbacks, he never thinks about himself, but only blames others. Then the queen mother who tied King Rui to speak and let them leave Beijing will naturally bear the brunt .
In fact, there is still another way to send a son back to the capital. A concubine is not enough, it must be a legitimate son, that is to say, the two children Shen Xuan and Shen Xi must send one to the capital.
Everyone has thought of this point, but no one is willing to bring it up, even King Rui. In his heart, the two sons-in-law will inherit the mantle. If sending the son-in-law is useful, King Rui will not have the slightest He even said that if his prostitute was useful, he would hesitate at most before sending Shen Qi and his wife back.
Shen Xuan is now in central Fujian, ready to make a career, and Shen Xi is also in the border town, "How is Xi'er?" King Rui suddenly looked at Chu Xiuming and asked.
In fact, when Chu Xiuming first came here, King Rui asked about this matter, but suddenly asked again today, Princess Rui pursed her lower lip and already had a guess in her heart, but she didn't say anything, but drank from a teacup Take a sip, Zhao Ru likes to drink tea, and prefers to make tea by himself. The tea leaves at home are all grown in Zhao Ru's own garden, and then made by himself. It is a bit bitter, but after drinking it, it leaves a fragrant fragrance on the mouth.
Princess Rui liked it very much in the past, but today she feels that even her lips and tongue are bitter.
Chu Xiuming heard the words and said, "Because brother Xi wants to make contributions to the battlefield and make his father-in-law and mother-in-law proud, my wife and I have no choice but to send him to the barracks first and let him train with the recruits. If you go to the battlefield, it will be a bit safer."
King Rui let out a breath slowly and said, "This kid is more promising than me."
Neither Zhao Ru, Chu Xiuming nor Princess Rui said a word, King Rui looked at Princess Rui and said, "The princess gave me two good sons, just like me!"
As soon as these words came out, even Zhao Ru, who had always been highly respected, couldn't help but rolled his eyes, but Princess Rui was used to what King Rui said, and said, "The young eagles always grow up, and they will fly to higher places. "
King Rui glanced at Princess Rui and said, "I'll go back, third son-in-law, you escort the princess and the others back to the border town."
As soon as Zhao Ru said this, Zhao Ru looked at King Rui with a little surprise in his eyes. No one thought that King Rui would make such a choice. Chu Xiuming looked at King Rui with a frown and said, "Father-in-law... going back like this, I'm afraid If so, it will be difficult to get out." "I know." King Rui said, "It doesn't matter, I don't like to go out anyway."
Princess Rui smiled and said, "I will go back to Beijing with the prince, and I will let Concubine Chen take the two children to the border town. The three sons-in-law, girl Jin and Xi'er will take care of them. My grandfather can rest assured."
King Rui looked at Princess Rui with a moved face and said, "Princess, the capital is dangerous, you should go with the third son-in-law." "The concubine said that she would stay with the prince forever." King Rui gave her what the concubine should have, and the whole palace was given to her, so even if Princess Rui didn't love King Rui, she would not abandon King Rui at this time.
What's more, Princess Rui's eyes flickered, she still wanted to see Emperor Cheng get retribution with her own eyes.
Zhao Ru sighed slowly, he knew his daughter, now that he had made a decision, he would not go back on his word, so he just looked at King Rui and said, "Son-in-law, I am just such a daughter, raised spoiled When you arrive in the capital, take care of yourself." "Father-in-law, don't worry." King Rui was so touched that his eyes turned red, and said, "She is my wife, and I will definitely protect her."
Zhao Ru smiled, looked at Princess Rui and said, "Since you have chosen, I won't say much, but you have to remember that you still have your son waiting for you, and your old parents waiting for you. Do you know?" Zhao Ru knew about the Sixth Prince, and her daughter would not change it once she recognized it. Since she had recognized the Sixth Prince, she would not be tempted even if someone better than the Sixth Prince appeared.
And the sixth prince was killed by Emperor Cheng. If one day he found out that his daughter had stabbed Emperor Cheng to death, Zhao Ru felt that he would not be too surprised, but he knew that his daughter belonged to the immovable family. People, but the longer you endure, the deeper the hatred in your heart.
Zhao Ru suddenly thought that if one day, Chu Xiuming guarded the prince's grandson and attacked the capital, it might be that his daughter arranged for someone to open the city gate. Thinking about it this way, he suddenly felt that this time his daughter accompanied King Rui back, it would be a shame for Emperor Cheng. It's really a misfortune rather than a blessing.
Princess Rui didn't know what Zhao Ru was thinking, she just smiled and said, "Then let Concubine Chen come over, I'll tell her something, since the prince has decided to return to Beijing, we should do it sooner rather than later, if we wait The imperial decree of Emperor Cheng has a different meaning."
After hearing this, King Rui nodded and said, "Then pack up your things, we'll leave in two days."
Princess Rui agreed, Chu Xiuming saw that both King Rui and Princess Rui had made a decision, so he didn't say anything more, anyway, it would be enough for him to bring Concubine Chen back, but Chu Xiuming thought of the news brought back by the Zhao family's children, and said, " Father-in-law, I would like to borrow your jade token for a while."
King Rui looked at Chu Xiuming suspiciously, and Chu Xiuming said, "It's useful."
Princess Rui also knew about this matter, and she agreed in her heart, but she didn't want Chu Xiuming to speak directly like this, but after thinking about it, she understood, after all, it was a jade card. Let Emperor Cheng be on guard, and even guess their purpose, but it would be different if King Rui offered it on his own initiative, Lord Rui hardly needs to use jade tokens.
Jade badges are very important to members of the royal family. In normal times, identity badges are sufficient. Jade badges are only used on formal or important occasions, and such occasions are rare.
Princess Rui glanced at King Rui and said, "Your Majesty, the third son-in-law has always been a prudent child, presumably they have their own uses."
The jade cards of different generations are also different, and the jade cards of the prince's lineage are even different from those of the ordinary royal family. King Rui's is naturally different from the crown prince's, but they are the closest in comparison, and it is enough to fool people.
King Rui hesitated for a moment before nodding and said, "Okay."
Chu Xiuming said, "Thank you father-in-law."
Zhao Ru also said at this time, "After you go back, except for going to the palace to meet the Queen Mother, you should stay in Prince Rui's mansion and not go out, you know?" "Understood." King Rui said respectfully.
Zhao Ru said, "Wait here for me." Then he got up and walked to the inner room.
Chu Xiuming looked at King Rui and said, "Father-in-law, if there is anything difficult to handle, you can ask someone to go to Jingzhong Kexianju to order their signature lamb with jade shoots and pay with pearls."
King Rui looked at Chu Xiuming in surprise, and Chu Xiuming just said in a deep voice, "If there is anything wrong, then the people from Kexianju will take the initiative to send secret bacon to your house."
If King Rui hesitated just now because of Chu Xiuming's request for a jade card, he is now completely willing. Easy, especially Kexianju, which has been around for decades and has a good reputation. If Chu Xiuming didn't mention it, no one would have thought that Kexianju belonged to Chu Xiuming. "I see, third son-in-law, don't worry." King Rui said.
Chu Xiuming shook his head and didn't say anything else. Concubine Chen had already come over. Although Chu Xiuming didn't say anything, he stood up when Concubine Chen came in, and sat down again after Concubine Chen took her seat.
Concubine Rui looked at Concubine Chen and said, "My lord and I have decided to go back to Beijing, and you will bring your two children back to the border town with Chu Xiuming."
Concubine Chen's complexion changed when she heard the words, she didn't say much, she just said seriously, "Don't worry, Wang Ye, Wang Fei, I will definitely take good care of the child."
Seeing that Concubine Chen was so straightforward, King Rui felt a little uncomfortable again, so his face became much uglier, but both Concubine Rui and Concubine Chen ignored him, and Chu Xiuming just pretended not to see it.
Concubine Rui smiled and said, "Okay, go back and tell the maid to pack up." "Yes." Concubine Chen said respectfully.
Princess Rui continued, "Someone call Wu Yatou and Brother Hao over." "Yes."
Chu Xiuming said, "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, I will take my leave first."
King Rui heard the words and said, "I will send you the jade plaque tonight."
Chu Xiuming nodded.
After everyone had left, Princess Rui looked at King Rui and said, "My lord, please give Xiao Si a name."
King Rui thought for a while and said, "Let's name the name Qing." "Yuanfang invades the ancient road, and Qingcui connects the deserted city." Princess Rui's voice was filled with melancholy, and it was really appropriate at this time, "Good name. "
King Rui was stunned for a moment. In fact, what he was thinking was that the rain was over and the sky was sunny. But when he heard Princess Rui's words, he also felt that it would be better to explain it this way, so he didn't say anything.
Shen Rong and Shen Hao came here together. Since they left Beijing, the siblings have hardly been separated anymore. They don't know what happened, not even Chu Xiuming's arrival. After arriving in Chuyuan, even more Is almost out of hospital.
After the two greeted King Rui and Princess Rui, they stood aside, and Princess Rui said softly, "Sit down." "Yes." The two sat down, Shen Hao secretly looked at King Rui, Seeing Shen Hao's appearance, his expression softened a lot and he said, "Your mother and concubine and I are going back to the capital, and you will continue to move forward with Concubine Chen, remember to be obedient?"
When Shen Rong heard this, she hurriedly said, "Father, my daughter wants to stay by Father's side to serve."
In fact, if there is a choice, Shen Rong is not willing to leave Beijing at all. Now let them follow Concubine Chen. Thinking of how Concubine Xu bullied Concubine Chen and how their sisters bullied Concubine Chen, Shen Rong Rong how willing.
King Rui sighed, but felt that Shen Rong was sensible, and said, "You are obedient, follow Concubine Chen." "I don't want it." Shen Hao shouted, "I want to go back to the capital with my father."
In fact, Princess Rui had expected it a long time ago, and she didn't want Shen Rong to go to the border town to cause trouble for her son. Hearing this, she said, "Is it dangerous even in the capital?" Tighten this sentence.
Princess Rui said, "That's fine, but I can only bring one of your siblings back to Beijing. After all, we have to hurry because of some things, and the two children will inevitably be unable to take care of them."
Shen Hao looked at Shen Rong eagerly, and Shen Rong also looked at Shen Hao, gritted his teeth and said, "Let my younger brother follow Concubine Chen, my younger brother is a boy, so I should go out and see more."
As soon as these words came out, Shen Rong thought she was decent, but even King Rui saw Shen Rong's true intentions, let alone Princess Rui. Although Shen Rong had some scheming, but she was still young, and there was inevitably a bit of smugness on her face. Come. "Since you want to follow, just follow." King Rui said with a serious face.
Shen Hao couldn't believe his sister, "Sister, don't you want me too?"
Shen Rong said, "I'm doing it for your own good. You're young, and you won't be able to hold on if you're on your way." "I'm not afraid, my father let me go back with you." Shen Hao looked at King Rui beggingly.
King Rui said, "Go out, it's settled like this."
Princess Rui said softly, "Brother Hao, don't worry, Concubine Chen will take good care of you."
Shen Hao was crying, but seeing King Rui's face, he didn't dare to say anything more. Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Shen Rong hurriedly dragged Shen Hao out. Anyway, Shen Hao was young, so he just coaxed him.
After Shen Hao and Shen Rong left, King Rui gritted his teeth and said, "Since she wants to die, let her die, she is so scheming at such a young age, Brother Hao is her own brother, she dares to do that."
Princess Rui sighed slowly, and said, "The fifth girl is not too young, and this time I will go back to Beijing together, so it may not be easy to handle the marriage." "Don't worry about her." King Rui said in a very bad tone.
Princess Rui wanted to say something more, but she saw that Zhao Ru had already sent someone to call them over, so she stopped talking, Zhao Ru and Zhao Qi were waiting for them in the study, and when they came in, Zhao Ru looked Some years ago, the key was put in King Rui's hand and he said, "The Zhao family's old house in the middle of the capital has a secret door under the corner. If something really happens, you can take people to go through there. Go to a Zhuangzi outside the city, but I remember that when I arrive, I will go west immediately, and I will see an abandoned Yizhuang. There is a dry well in the innermost part. After going down, there will be a dark room where about 50 people can hide. I prepared it at the beginning. Things are no longer available now, remember to arrange for people to prepare things in advance.”
That secret room was also the key to sending away the second son of the prince. It was originally prepared by the Zhao family for their own family, but now that they have left Beijing, they no longer need it. It is precisely what King Rui and Princess Rui needed most.
King Rui, who had gone from being surprised at the beginning to admiring later, said, "I remember."
Princess Rui thought for a while and said, "I'll leave Cuixi behind, and then father will help us arrange a few trustworthy people, and then we will go to Yizhuang to make arrangements."
Zhao Ru nodded and said, "It's okay."
King Rui also knew it would be safer to do so, and said, "Thank you, father-in-law."
Zhao Ru looked at King Rui and said, "Remember, you can only bring the safest ones, otherwise there will be no other way out in Yizhuang."
King Rui gritted his teeth and nodded, "I'll save it."
Zhao Ru looked at Princess Rui and said, "Your mother misses you, go visit her and talk to her more."
Princess Rui glanced at her father, then got up and said, "Okay."
After Princess Rui left, Zhao Ru looked at King Rui, "I have a few words, and I want to talk to you." "Father-in-law, please." King Rui said respectfully.
Zhao Ru asked, "If what happened in the 37th year of Yongjia happened again, what are you going to do?"
King Rui said without hesitation, "Take your wife, children and guards and hide through this road." "What about Emperor Cheng?" Zhao Ru looked at King Rui and asked in a deep voice.
King Rui said without hesitation, "We can't let him know about this."
Zhao Ru was not surprised, his expression was calm, and he suddenly asked, "Then what about the Queen Mother?"
King Rui was stunned, and looked at Zhao Ru dully. When he knew there was danger in the capital, would he really take his people and run away regardless of his mother
The Empress Dowager and Emperor Cheng are not the same, King Rui will not feel much saddened by the death of Emperor Cheng, but what about the Empress Dowager? If it weren't for the fear of implicating the Queen Mother, his master would not choose to return to Beijing.
Zhao Ru sighed slowly and said, "If you take the Queen Mother, can you guarantee to hide it from Emperor Cheng and everyone's eyes and ears?"
No, unless the queen mother lives in Prince Rui's mansion, it is absolutely impossible to hide it, but can the queen mother leave the palace? Impossible, Emperor Cheng would never allow it. "Think about it yourself." Zhao Ru said.
King Rui nodded, his face full of struggles.
And in the border town at this time, Shen Jin suspected that her ears had misheard, she was playing outside with Dongdong in her arms while the sun was good, but listening to what Mother Zhao said, she always felt something was wrong, " How many cousins does your husband have?" "If what Madam wants to ask is the one who came to defect and almost got married to the general, but betrayed the general, then that's the one." Mother Zhao said, "She said she had A letter from the prince of England to the general." If not, she would not even be able to enter the gate of the border town.
Shen Jin frowned and said, "Then ask for the letter and bring it to Mr. Wang. Since she can deliver the letter to Prince Ying's son, she probably knows something about Prince Ying's situation."
Upon hearing this, Mother Zhao said, "Yes."
Shen Jin thought that Madam Zhao and the others were worried that Chu Xiuming would be unhappy if they dealt with Chu Xiuming's cousin in this way, so she comforted him, "When my husband comes back, I'll tell you my idea."
Zhao Nanny looked at Shen Jin, smiled and said, "Madam, in fact, even if Madam said she wanted to see that cousin girl, when Madam met, the old slave would suggest that Madam should deal with it in this way, whether it is Manager Zhao or Manager Wang. You have to ask Madam about everything like this, even if you have an idea, you have to ask Madam to act, it's just a show of respect for Madam."
Mother Zhao didn't say more, because she said too much and went too far.
Shen Jin was stunned for a moment and understood in his heart that both Mr. Wang and Mr. Zhao were expressing their attitudes to others. If they neglected to talk to Shen Jin for a long time and did not issue any orders through Shen Jin, then the following It is inevitable that people who are not in love will despise her in their hearts, and even imitate her. It is not a joke to follow the example, and with the skills of Manager Wang and others, it is not difficult to overtake Shen Jin.
Mother Zhao can say this because she is sincere to Shen Jin, and she is afraid that Shen Jin will despise Mr. Wang and the others, which will be very detrimental to Shen Jin. "I know." Shen Jin shook Dongdong, and now Dongdong was raised white and fat, with arms like lotus root, one joint and one joint, Shen Jin's arms became sore after hugging for a while, When it was in An Ning's hands, he looked at Zhao Momo and said, "Thank you, Momo."
Zhao Momo said, "It's good that Madam doesn't think that this old slave is too busy." "No, I know you are doing it for my own good." Shen Jin said.
Zhao Nanny's eyes are very gentle, she knows that Shen Jin is not that kind of proud temperament, but it is because of caring that she thinks more, "By the way, Manager Zhao and the others reassured his wife that although King Ying's son framed King Rui, It makes King Rui difficult, but the general is by King Rui's side now, and he will definitely bring Concubine Chen back safely."
Listening to Zhao Nanny's comfort, Shen Jin actually didn't worry about it at all, because her husband was here, and neither Zhao Ru nor Princess Rui would be willing to offend her now, and forcefully hold Concubine Chen? How could they do such a thankless task, so Shen Jin never thought it was dangerous to deal with smart people, because smart people would weigh gains and losses, and what she was most afraid of was dealing with people who thought they were smart.
But Shen Jin wouldn't say these things, she liked other people's concern and kindness, and said, "Well, that's good."
Zhao Momo looked at the sun and said, "Madam, it's time to go back."
Shen Jin nodded and said, "Ha, Dongdong should be hungry too."
When Dongdong heard his name, he turned his head and looked at Shen Jin. Shen Jin pulled his hat for him, and then said, "Mammy, I'll go in first." "Okay." Zhao Nanny sent Shen Jin to wait. People went in, and then went out to arrange the affairs of the cousin girl.
Shen Jin actually didn't think she could get any news from that cousin. If she really knew a lot, she wouldn't be sent by the Prince of England. It was just an attitude to say so, but could this cousin What is there to rely on? Otherwise, how could you dare to take such a trip after doing such a thing
After thinking about it for a while, Shen Jin put the matter aside, and carried the child into the inner room. Dongdong was indeed hungry, and as soon as Shen Jin reported him to her arms, she arched her chest, holding her to the chest. After that, I ate it.
Shen Jin thought of what support that cousin had, but didn't want her to be so dependent. When she was released, not only Manager Wang was in charge of them, but also Shen Jin was stunned, looked at Mother Zhao and said, "She said she had Whose posthumous child?" "It's the general's third brother, Chu Xiuyao's." Zhao Mama's face was ugly, "She said that she gave birth to the child after she found out that she was pregnant, because she knew that the general would not forgive her. I did something wrong in a moment of confusion, and felt ashamed, so I never came back, and now that child is in the hands of the Prince of England, that's why she came here." "But, wasn't it my husband who she almost got engaged to? ?” Shen Jin was a little confused, and asked hesitantly, but how could there be a child of the third brother Chu Xiuming
Zhao Momo shook her head and said, "This old slave doesn't know what's going on."
Now this matter is difficult, now that Chu Xiuyao is gone, no one knows if it is true or not, if it is true, this child is Chu Xiuyao's only son.
Shen Jin and Nanny Zhao looked at each other. The most important thing is that this child is still in the hands of the Prince of England!
