Chapter 514: Saying
Chu Lingqi said, "Sister-in-law, you are really like a god. If you hadn't had people call us up, if we hadn't prepared in advance, there would have been more casualties. ”
Captain Li also said, "Yes, it was windy last night, and if we hadn't prepared, this Zhuangzi wouldn't have known what it would have been burned." ”
Chen Afu hurriedly said, "Maybe it's God's blessing, I suddenly felt uncomfortable last night, and I was always afraid that something would happen." Who knows, something really happened. Then he asked, "How are the wounded, are there any worries for their lives?"
Captain Li continued, "Four wounded guards, one with a stab in the stomach, one in the back, and one with half of his right ear cut off, all three of them are fine. It's just that a person's left arm was cut off, and he is disabled in this life, and it will be impossible for him to be a guard in the future. That girl was in the worst condition, half of her face and half of her body were burned......"
Lichen didn't finish listening, so he covered his mouth and cried and ran back to the West Cross Courtyard.
Chen Afu deliberately asked in front of the dust. It's not that Chen Afu is too cruel, it's that she must be let know that because of her stubbornness, how many people have been harmed to protect her. She must be let know that although she has no intention of harming others, because there are people who want to harm her, she must consider the people who love her and protect her, and she must not be too willful.
Chen Afu said to Chu Lingqi again, "I'll write a letter immediately, and you can send it to my father-in-law in person." He looked at Hua Jingshan again and gritted his teeth and said, "This account, my father-in-law will go to settle it." The father-in-law has done his best, tried his best, and has been loyal to the court for so many years, but his ex-wife, granddaughter, and so many relatives have been killed and killed more than once in this bright and clear world...... Although these people did not leave a living mouth, no one is a fool, the father-in-law can guess who is the mastermind, and the emperor and the prince are so wise that they can guess it...... What's more, my mother-in-law's son, my husband, Chu'er's father, he is still working hard for the court on the front line! No matter what, my father-in-law will go to the emperor to ask for an explanation......"
Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if it is really the remnants of the second prince who hurt people this time, it must be the mother and daughter who are responsible for the disaster. They are too bad, too selfish, in order to satisfy their own selfish desires, they don't care about the lives of others, even the important ministers of the court.
Marquis Chu is forbearing, not cowardly, and even more difficult to provoke. Otherwise, there is no one who has the ability to fight against the two princes and the party on their own, cultivate their forces little by little, and help the Nine Emperors to get to where they are now...... Perhaps, it was because of his ability that the emperor was afraid.
Chu Lingqi nodded.
Chen Afu went back to the house and wrote a letter, and discussed it with Chu Lingqi again. The real situation should be explained clearly to Marquis Chu, but when Marquis Chu went to complain to the emperor and the prince, it was best to say that the injured girl was to protect Chu Hanyan, and the injured guards were to protect the dust ...... Marquis Chu is smart, what to do, he must be accurate.
Sending Chu Lingqi away is already at the end of the hour.
Chu Hanyan was frightened and sat there in a daze, not talking or eating. Chen Afu blamed himself very much, he should have let her go back to Chu Mansion directly yesterday, instead of taking her to Luojiazhuang. Poor boy, how can he always catch up with all this.
He didn't eat, but kept chanting.
Chen Afu also instructed Luo to manage the affairs that the injured people must be properly resettled and given more pensions. Especially the disabled guard and the burned girl, not only must they be treated well, but they must also be free of food and clothing for the rest of their lives. From this month until their death, 800 wen will be paid every month. This treatment is very good, and the little steward and the second-class girl only get this month's money.
Leaving Steward Luo and others here to deal with the follow-up matters, Chen Afu led everyone back to Fucheng.
As soon as Chen Afu led the little girl out of the gate of Luojiazhuang, he saw that the old lady Zhao was carried here by a strong mother-in-law.
Chen Afu wondered, "You're here to find me?"
Old lady Zhao crooked her mouth and said, "You are the granddaughter of my in-law, and you have all arrived at the door, but you don't know to go to see my wife." ”
Chen Afu was happy and said, "Old lady, why don't I go to see you, you know better than anyone else." If you are old and have a bad memory, I repeat, you have done so many evil things in order to kill my mother and me. You want me to die, and if I appear in front of you, it will be a great unfilial piety. ”
After speaking, he led Chu Hanyan into the carriage.
The old lady hurriedly said, "If you don't look at me, then you have to get me some money." ”
Chen Afu looked back at the old woman, half of the old woman's face stiffened even more, and when she spoke, not only did she drool, but her mouth was crooked to the side.
Chen Afu shook his head, this old woman has been chasing glory and wealth all her life, so much so that she does not hesitate to do those things that lose her conscience, but in the end she has become like this.
Chen Shiying is a filial son and will not lack her expenses. She would rather not be cheeky to care about the person she hates the most and reach out for money, she shouldn't have much sense of security, and she wants to have a lot of money on hand, right?
Chen Afu gave Hong Fei a look, and Hong Fei took out a silver ingot for her.
Chen Afu got into the car, and listened to the old lady Zhao say, "Dead girl, why are you so rich, why are you so picky, the old woman opened her mouth and gave two taels of silver." ”
Chen Afu lifted the curtain and said, "Then you have to thank God for not letting you kill my mother and me, otherwise, you won't even have these two taels of silver." ”
Song and several girls bowed their heads and pretended not to hear.
The carriage and horses entered the mansion, and Chen Afu did not go to Chen Ming's house as he had previously thought, but still took the dust to the Chu Mansion. After this incident, I believe that the dust will no longer be willful.
Let people lead Chu Hanyan into the main courtyard. The little girl was frightened, and Chen Afu didn't want her to live alone in her own yard.
Chen Afu personally sent the dust to Luomei Nunnery.
Lichen went directly into the small Buddha hall, and she said to Chen Afu, "Go back and coax Yan'er, she was frightened." It's me who is sorry for her and hurts her every time. You should also go back to the capital earlier, so you don't have to come to see me again. Rest assured, I will always stay here, no matter how ugly people say, I will not leave here until I can. ”
With that, she sat down cross-legged and began to knock on the wooden fish.
An hour ago, the next generation rushed back to report that Chen would come back to live. Not long after the earth dragon and the charcoal tray were burning, the room was cold and shivering.
Chen Afu looked at Chen's stiff back and said, "Mother-in-law, please take care of your body." Those bad things were done by Concubine Ma and Rong Zhao, and the mother-in-law didn't need to take their mistakes on herself. Good is rewarded with good, evil is rewarded with evil, it is not that it is not reported, but it is not reported at the time. I believe that their retribution is coming. ”
Lichen didn't seem to hear it, and kept knocking on the wooden fish.
Chen Afu bent his knees at her back and walked out of Luomei Nunnery.
