Chapter 088: King Liang refuses to save people
Xie Wu learned everything about yesterday from his son-in-law and his son's servants, and he said to Luo Shiqian, "Thank you for your hard work", and ordered someone to arrange a room for Luo Shiqian to rest, but Luo Shiqian politely refused.
"Since my brother has arrived home safely, I will go to the Soldiers and Horses Division to be on duty. Luo Shiqian said respectfully to his father-in-law.
"You didn't get a good rest last night, so you might as well take a day off and go back tomorrow. Xie Wu said warmly.
"It's okay, I slept in the dormitory for a while yesterday. Luo Shiqian said, "If you can't stand it in the afternoon, you can go home early." ”
Xie Wu nodded, knowing that the eldest son-in-law was a strict and disciplined person, and he also had his own ideas for doing things, so he didn't persuade him much. But since the eldest son-in-law is here, he has to ask about the eldest daughter.
"Fuqing is good, is the fetus still stable?" Xie Wu asked.
"Father-in-law, rest assured, Fuqing drank the prescription prescribed by Imperial Doctor Huang to stabilize the fetus a lot. Luo Shiqian said.
Xie Wu nodded, "That's fine." ”
"It's just ......" Luo Shiqian raised his eyes and looked at his father-in-law, half of the words said, and the other half seemed to have scruples and swallowed back.
Xie Wu raised his eyebrows, "It's just what? Why do you spit?"
Luo Shiqian looked embarrassed, hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's just that Fuqing opened her face to the two wedding girls, so she didn't let ...... If you don't let your son-in-law take it for a room, this is ...... The son-in-law really didn't mean that. ”
Xie Wu was stunned when he heard this, he never thought that the eldest son-in-law was going to say about it!
When a woman from a wealthy family has menstruation, is pregnant, or is otherwise unwell and unable to serve her husband, she often arranges for a concubine or a maid to wait on her husband, which also proves that the wife is a virtuous person.
Xie Fuqing opened her face to the bridal girl, and there was nothing wrong with preparing to make a room, but Luo Shiqian, who was her husband, was unwilling, so she was a little embarrassed.
This kind of matter in the room between the daughter and the son-in-law Xie Wu was inconvenient to comment, so he had to say: "I see, I will mention it to the princess." ”
"Thank you, father-in-law!" Luo Shiqian breathed a sigh of relief, "Then the little son-in-law will go on duty." ”
"Good. Xie Wu nodded and ordered someone to send Luo Shiqian out of the house.
Inside the house, Xie Zhuo began to be drowsy again, and Xie Fuya and Princess Anyang sat outside and whispered about yesterday's events.
When Xie Wu came in, he saw that the eyes of his wife and little daughter were a little red.
"What did the Imperial Doctor say?" Xie Wu asked.
Xie Fuya repeated the words of the imperial doctor, and Xie Wu's hanging heart fell.
"Ju'er should be fine. Xie Wu sat on the chair and breathed a sigh of relief, "Fuya, help your mother go back, just stay here for your father." ”
"Daddy, it's enough to have brothers Da Yang and Xiao Yang take care of your brother, so you can go back too. Xie Fuya persuaded Xie Wu, "If my brother has any movement, they will report it in time." ”
Princess Anyang pressed her red and swollen eyes with a handkerchief, sighed and said to her husband, "Yes, don't guard the horse here." ”
Xie Wu thought of what Luo Shiqian said, so he nodded and said, "It's okay, I'll go back with the princess." ”、
Princess Anyang, the concubine, and Xie Fuya returned to their respective courtyards.
As soon as Xie Fuya entered the courtyard, Rushi and the others greeted her.
"The county lord is back, and the slaves and maids are worried about death!" Rushi looked at Xie Fuya worriedly, "The county lord wants to bathe?"
Xie Fuya hurried to the palace and spent the night in the dormitory, the smell of her body in the summer was really bad. Listening to Rushi's reminder, she nodded.
Soon, the hot water was boiled, and the rough lady carried the bucket and poured it into the bath bucket. Rushi asked Ruchun Ruqiu to wait for Xie Fuya to change into the men's clothes on her body, while she watched the water in the clean room.
Xie Fuya slowly sat down in the bathtub with the support of the maidservant, and the warm water wrapped her whole body, making her sigh comfortably.
Rushi took the water scoop and slowly poured it on the master's head, "County Lord, how is the water temperature?"
"It's fine. Xie Fuya sighed, was silent for a while, and then asked, "Did someone come to Chengyibo's Mansion yesterday?"
"The second and fifth wives of Bofu came last evening, but they were stopped by the porter and did not let them in. "Rushi said, "I heard the porter say that Mrs. Fifth was very angry and said a lot of ugly things. Although the second wife didn't come forward to call the door, her face was also very ugly. ”
Xie Fuya tugged at the corners of her mouth and sneered: "After a few things, I found that because my mother is gentle by nature and never oppresses people with her identity, some people forget their sense of proportion and make mistakes without knowing it! It is also time for them to know that this is Xie Juma's Mansion, and the hostess they are going to visit is the eldest princess of Da Wei!"
Rushi's fingers stopped, and she said with some concern: "Can ...... But the slave maid was worried that after the second wife and the fifth wife returned to the uncle's mansion, what would they say about you in front of the old lady, the uncle, and the second master......? They ......"
"What if they offer to divorce me?" Xie Fuya guessed Rushi's unspeakable worry, and said with a sneer, "It was the porter of the horse house who was disrespectful to the two wives of the Bofu, I was not in the house at the time, and I didn't know about it, if they investigated it, they only said that the porter had been disposed of." If you want to abandon me because of this, I will go to the queen mother to ask for an explanation! If I want to give up, it can only be that I, Xie Fuya, have divorced Cai Chengshan, and it is not their turn to abandon me in Chengyibo's Mansion!"
Xie Fuya's words are really shocking, and her hands tremble when she hears poetry!
There are only men in this world who abandon their wives, so how can their wives divorce their husbands! If you say it, you will be drowned by the world with spittle stars!
After taking a bath for a while, Xie Fuya raised her arm and sniffed it, and a faint fragrance rushed into her nose.
When I thought about it in the palace of Lelu Park, I stood with Cheng Song talking with a smell of sweat and horses...... Xie Fuya shrank into the water in frustration.
"County Lord?" As soon as the poet's hand was empty, he saw that the master had not entered the water.
**
"What? Xie went to the palace outside the city yesterday and didn't return overnight?" Old Chen stared at a middle-aged man standing below with wide eyes and asked, "Then she lives in the palace?
The eldest lady and the eldest grandmother sitting at the bottom showed embarrassment on their faces, covered the corners of their mouths with handkerchiefs, and peeked at the second wife.
The second wife is now like a stop in her heart! She has already planned in her heart to marry another second room for her son, and she will not give up whether the Xie family agrees or not! If the Xie family spills again, oppresses people with her identity and her mother's family, she will let her son throw a letter of resignation to the Xie family! Look who wants to lose face!
With such an idea, the old Chen deliberately distorted the things reported by the subordinates and smeared Xie Fuya's name, and the second wife didn't care when she heard it, and even wanted to laugh mockingly!
"The little one only heard that the county lord of Jingyi stayed in the Gongliao of the palace in order to take care of Uncle Xie, and the others ...... The other villains didn't inquire. The middle-aged man wiped the sweat from his forehead, not daring to say a word.
"Then I'm afraid that the eldest man of the Xie family is injured is not retribution, right?" The fifth wife said resentfully, "If you get married, you can't tell the difference between inside and outside, and if you have something, you will run to your mother's house, and if your mother's family has something, you will also rush to the front, where is the appearance of being a ** and a daughter-in-law!"
When the fifth wife said this, she forgot that she begged Xie Fuya to go back to her parents' house and ask for an errand for Cai Chengchuan!
Old Chen sneered twice, "Hmph! Who said it wasn't!"
Old Chen and the fifth wife were suddenly so arrogant, because Cheng Yibo couldn't resist his stepmother Lao Chen's actions, and promised to mention to King Liang about his nephew's imprisonment in Jing'an Mansion after the early dynasty, and asked the prince to help bail people out.
King Liang came forward, and Yin of Jing'an Mansion dared not to give face? Old Chen and the fifth wife concluded that Cai Chengchuan would definitely come back today, and there was no need to look at Xie Fuya's little hoof's face!
If you can climb to the king of Liang because of this......
"Uncle is back home! Uncle is back home!" A little girl ran in with the curtain open, and said crisply after saluting the masters, grandmothers, and wives present, "Uncle is back, go to the study first to change into court clothes and come over!"
Old Chen had already stood up, and when he heard the little girl's report, he said angrily: "People didn't come over, what are you yelling about!"
The little girl hung her head aggrievedly. Obviously, the old lady said that if the uncle returns home, he will report it immediately!
The fifth lady stepped forward and stared at the little girl and asked, "Did the uncle say anything?" Did you say when the third master will come back?"
The little girl shook her head, "Uncle didn't say anything and went to the study." ”
The fifth lady didn't believe it, and asked again: "Did you see the uncle in the front yard, or did you listen to what others said?"
The little girl was frightened, with tears in her eyes, "The slave didn't lie. The slave and maid ran to the front yard and saw the Bofu coming back from outside. When my uncle saw that I was a girl in the inner courtyard, he asked me to spread the word that I would come to the old lady after changing into court clothes. ”
The fifth lady was anxious and angry, "How is it possible? Isn't the uncle going to beg King Liang today?
When the eldest lady who had never spoken heard the fifth lady say this, she said with some displeasure: "The fifth brother and sister must not be anxious, the uncle will go to ask His Royal Highness King Liang since the old lady answers." ”
The fifth wife knew that she couldn't offend the people of the big house at this time, so she didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore even if she was anxious.
After about half a pillar of incense, Cheng Yibo, who had changed his clothes, came to Yanshouju.
The girl lifted the curtain to invite Cheng Yibo in, and as soon as he turned the screen, he heard Lao Chen's inquiry, "What's the matter?" King Liang said when he could let my brother Chuan come back?"
Listening to Lao Chen's question, Cheng Yibo's mind ached! He complained a little that his father married Lao Chen, a woman with a low background but a very rich dowry, to continue the string!
Uncle Cheng Yi stepped forward to greet the old Chen family, and then bowed his head and said: "My son is incompetent, although I have seen His Royal Highness King Liang today, but as soon as I talk about Brother Chuan'er, King Liang ...... His Royal Highness King Liang ......"
"What's the matter with him?" Old Chen slapped the table anxiously, "Just say when I can pick up my Brother Chuan, I don't want to hear it!"
The prince said that Chengchuan not only took the royal tribute to sell this crime, but also conspired with the merchant to make it shoddy! The merchant pulled the defective product over, accepted the money, and then turned his head and gave Chengchuan six the difference in price four or six points. Cheng Yibo said bitterly, "That's the palace where the saint will live in the future, Chengchuan is greedy for the silver there and uses defective products, and the courage is really too big!
After Cheng Yibo finished speaking, he threw up his sleeves and left, he didn't want to listen to the threat of the old Chen ghost crying wolf anymore! He did everything he could, and now Cheng Yibo's mansion is a little stormy, where is there still the spirit to take care of the children who can't be managed!
Old Chen and Mrs. Five were stunned for a while before they understood what Cheng Yibo said, and Mrs. Five slipped off the chair and sat on the ground as soon as her legs were weak!
Old Chen was even more dizzy from shock and almost fainted on the couch!
Seeing this scene, the eldest wife and the second wife got up one after another to leave, leaving a place for the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to think about how to beg Cai Chengchuan!
"Old lady, what can I do!" The fifth lady couldn't even make a sound, and the whole person was piled up on the ground.
Lao Chen stroked the corner of his forehead and snorted, "I'...... I don't believe it! I'm going to put ...... We want to rescue Brother Chuan!"
Su Weirou stood behind Lao Chen, quietly looking at the fifth lady and the old lady, sneering in her heart. She had long seen that Cai Chengchuan was not a good thing, and he deserved to be imprisoned!
"My Chuan'er! my precious grandson!" Old Chen grabbed his shirt and cried, "What can I do!"
Now they really don't have anything to think of!
Su Weirou said faintly at this time: "Didn't the second cousin-in-law go back to Beijing? It's only noon now, why don't you let the second aunt and the fifth aunt go to the Horse Mansion to have a look? If you can't ask the king of Liang, why don't you go and ask the prince?"
When the old Chen family and the fifth wife heard Su Weirou's words, they felt that it made a lot of sense! Now they can only grasp the "straw" of Xie Fuya!
"Hurry up and order the carriage to be prepared! I don't want to put this old bone out of this old face, and personally go and kneel down to Princess Anyang and the county lord of Jingyi, and beg them to save my Brother Chuan!" Old Chen roared with his neck stretched and his green tendons protruding.
In the Horse Mansion, Xie Fuya bathed and changed into clean clothes, and moved to the main house where her parents lived.
There was only Princess Anyang in the main house, and Xie Wu, the concubine, was worried about his son and went to the front yard to visit Xie Zhuo.
"Why don't you rest well, and come here to do something?" Princess Anyang looked at her little daughter's obviously gloomy complexion and the blue and black under her eyes, and said distressedly, "Go back and make up for sleep." ”
Xie Fuya was indeed a little tired, but thinking that her family was now being spied on and secretly calculating damage, she couldn't rest in peace!
"My daughter is not tired. Xie Fuya smiled and sat down beside Princess Anyang, reaching out to hold her mother's arm to absorb warmth and security. "Mother, I've thought about it. Although it is good that my brother has a good future, his safety is the best. When his brother's injuries are healed, let him quit his job as an overseer and continue to be a gentleman. ”
Princess Anyang looked down at her little daughter with some surprise, "How can you feel this way? Your brother took on this errand because he was willing, not because you and I pressured him to do things." ”
"But......" Xie Fuya pursed her lips.
Princess Anyang sighed, took her daughter's hand and said, "Whether you can do this errand or not, let your brother decide for himself." ”
