Chapter 385: Reactions from all sides
Wu Sheng had already sent someone to explain to Wu Shangshu the reason why he could not come immediately, and Liu Shizi of the Pingguo Mansion was seriously injured in order to save people. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
There are a total of four sons in the Gaomang Dynasty, no matter how the Pingguo Mansion falls, but the identity of the prince is naturally noble.
Liu Shizi's injury is a major event, although he is a second-class official, but in the Ministry of Rites, he has no real power in the idle yamen, except to wait.
Wu Guangqi held the dust whisk in his hand and stood firmly with figure-eight steps. Seeing that he was afraid of the heat, he said: "I don't know when General Wu will come, if Wu Shangshu is tired, it is better to take a rest for the time being." ”
Although the two are not related, they are also their own family, so Wu Guangqi will take proper care of them.
When Wu Shangshu heard this, he was busy sitting on the high-backed chair under the canopy, and after taking a sip of tea, he felt relieved and said, "Manager Wu, please sit down too?"
Wu Guangqi shook his head, he had practiced the kung fu he had practiced in the palace, and he didn't feel uncomfortable. On the contrary, it is the matter in front of us that needs to be thought about again.
He called Xiao Quanzi, who was beside him, and commanded in a low voice, "You, go where the people go down and have a good life." ”
Xiao Quanzi understood and pricked his hand.
……
The people in the "Listen to the Perfume Pavilion" also found out that something was wrong, and they sent people to find out.
A small servant hurriedly walked into the small courtyard where the Pingguo Mansion was located, entered the wing room and said to the Zeng family: "Mrs. Yu, the prince was injured in order to save a woman who fell off the embankment. ”
Zeng Shi was startled at first, then a sad look appeared on his face, and he slowly asked, "Is the injury serious?"
Liu Qilan hugged her mother and scolded: "What's going on, how do you serve the prince." ”
The little guy complained bitterly in his heart, where did he dare to tell the truth, so he had to say: "The Northern Ya Army won the first place, and the people of the Gyeonggi battalion on the river bank were not convinced, and they fought with the people of the Northern Ya Army. Shi Ziye was just passing by to see the excitement, but he didn't expect that the railing was squeezed into a gap. A woman fell, and the prince jumped without thinking about it. ”
After hearing what he had said, Zeng let out a sad cry and said, "My son! What kind of life, gold is more precious than you! Why did you go to save people?"
In her heart, even if she is a royal noble, she can't afford the precious life of her son.
Hearing her mother's mournful voice, Liu Qilan was a little impatient and asked, "What about later?"
The little servant replied: "General Wu, who was still on the dragon boat at that time, went over to see it and ordered someone to invite the imperial doctor." At this time, General Wu is probably still waiting for the imperial doctor with the prince. ”
Zeng said: "Quick, take me quickly." ”
As soon as she left, the room full of people didn't dare to wait here, and they followed her out.
As he walked, Zeng felt sad: "My son, why are you so stupid? ”
……
They made such a big move, even though the Perfume Pavilion was divided into small courtyards, but the Anguo Mansion and others also noticed it.
After listening to the subordinates' reply, Zhuang nodded and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Pingguo Gong actually had a warm-hearted son. ”
Xu Wanzhen listened to it and did not comment. With her status and status, she is not qualified to talk about the prince in another country's mansion.
Shi Jingfu combed a double-ring hanging bun, blinked curiously and asked, "Usually I only heard that Brother Liu is the best at fighting. I didn't expect that I would sacrifice my life to save people?"
Shi Jingyu gently knocked her head with a silk fan and said, "Don't talk about others behind people's backs. He turned his head and asked the mother-in-law who came back and forth, "Do you know the identity of that woman?"
The mother-in-law replied hesitantly: "There are too many people, and the old slave listened to it in a trance, saying that it was the young lady of the Tu family." ”
"What?" Xu Wanzhen put down the teacup in her hand, walked quickly to her mother-in-law's side, and asked, "Do you know which Tu family it is?"
"It should be the Tu family who opened the academy. ”
Xu Wanzhen's face changed, there are only two young ladies in the Tu family, is it Tu Manfen or Tu Manzhen, why did they fall off the embankment?
The Zhuang family also heard it, knowing that the Tu family was Xu Wanzhen's grandmother's foreign family, and said with concern: "Zhen'er, don't panic, since the prince has already saved her, there should be no big problem." ”
Xu Wan was really confused, the Tu family and the Pingguo Mansion had grievances in front of them, how could they be involved at this time? She didn't believe that this matter was a coincidence.
He respectfully bowed to Zhuang and said, "Mother, the child wants to go and see." ”
There is something in the Tu family, and Xu Wanzhen should go to see it.
Zhuang nodded and said, "There are a lot of people outside, you take good people and don't be hit." And he commanded the mother-in-law, who had come to and fed, to show her the way.
Today she was followed by Cai Si and Qingluo, Xu Wanzhen put on a hat, took the two of them, and followed the mother-in-law out of the "Listen to the Perfume Pavilion".
Cai Si helped her and said softly: "Miss, Mulan is not around, you must be careful." ”
She followed Xu Wanzhen and experienced many dangers. Although she couldn't understand that as a merchant of the Xu family, there was no enemy in the capital who couldn't see the right eye, so why Miss was repeatedly involved in danger. But the facts are in front of her, so that every time she goes out with Xu Wanzhen, she is cautiously guarded.
Xu Wanzhen's right hand was cold, and Cai Si stuffed the big food country waist knife into her palm.
She was slightly surprised, and a little moved by Caisi's loyalty, and smiled and put the waist knife in her sleeve pocket. Fortunately, this waist knife is small, although the summer shirt is light, but there are people around her to support her, and she can't see it when she walks with a slight cover-up.
……
With such a grand event as the Dragon Boat Race, the shadow guard naturally has to be fully monitored.
This kind of lively scene with a large number of people is the most frequent and intimate time for all kinds of transactions.
Two streets away from the Luoshui River, there is a tea shop with a light business. It is facing the street, and I have invited my husband to tell stories all the year round, and the business has always been good.
It's just that at this time, people are watching the dragon boat race on both sides of the river, and even several guys have taken leave and run to see the excitement. The shopkeeper also agreed, and also gave the storyteller a holiday, anyway, according to his experience, there were no guests on this day.
The sun hung high, and the sun burned people and leaves. The shopkeeper was lying on the counter on the first floor, dozing off. There was not a single guest in the hall, so he had to snuggle up to the pillar and chase the flies with a towel.
In a box on the second floor of the tea shop, Wu Rui stood as straight as a javelin.
Wu Zhengxiang sat at the table of the Eight Immortals, holding the latest news from the Wind Group. He looked at them one by one, and they were all expected news.
Suddenly, there was a "huh?" sound.
The news in his hand was that there was a conflict between the Northern Yajun Army and the Gyeonggi Battalion, which caused Tu Manzhen to be squeezed off the embankment, and Liu Qiran sacrificed himself to save it.
He doesn't care about Liu Qiran, but it's about his eldest brother Wusheng. Because of that life a few years ago, the Northern Yajun had a feud with the Gyeonggi Daying, and Tu Manzhen was Xu Wanzhen's cousin.
