Chapter 267: Discord

What Xia Yuzhi saw when he entered the door was this scene of mother and son relying on each other. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The little girl held her mother's shirt tightly, her big black and white eyes were timid, but she stood firmly beside her mother, like a bird with open wings learning to protect her mother.

The nurse on the side trembled, hiding behind Mrs. Ruan and did not dare to raise her head. Only the infant son didn't know what to worry about, and was spitting bubbles and falling asleep.

Looking at Xia Yuzhi, who was dressed in moon-white brocade and had a long jade body, Mrs. Ruan gently stroked her daughter's hand, took a step forward and bowed to him, and said, "I don't know what to do with the concubine so that these children can live?"

After several tosses, although Gu Chenxiao's subordinates showed mercy that day, Mrs. Ruan fled into Kangnan with her children and settled in a village in Meizhou. After only a few months, he was found by Xiao Anyu and sent back to the Imperial City of Gusu.

Mrs. Ruan had nothing to love, so she only fought for her life and left this pair of children for the Ruan family.

"Madame misunderstood, I'm looking for Madame, there are only a few questions I want to ask clearly, and it won't hurt the lives of Madame and Young Lady", Xia Yuzhi looked at the obvious hostility in Madame Ruan's eyes, and explained good-naturedly.

The lord laughed, if there are only a few questions, why do you have to track down people thousands of miles? The deceased husband was born in the Ruan family by mistake, and he can't take his own life. If it's not enough, even take the life of the concubine", Mrs. Ruan's words were very calm, not like discussing life and death, but ordinary firewood and rice.

With retreat as the nearest, Mrs. Ruan is still fighting for the lives of a pair of children.

The daughter on the side couldn't help it, tears had rolled down, wetting her peach-colored skirt.

"Don't cry well", Mrs. Ruan squatted down to wipe her daughter's tears, her back still straight.

"Madame did misunderstand", for fear of scaring the child, Xia Yuzhi asked Mrs. Ruan to take a step to speak, and walked with her to the side of the corridor.

Da Ruan was a little strange, and it involved the mineral deposits in Xixia, so Xia Yuzhi started with Mrs. Ruan's husband, patted his chest and promised: "Just ask Mrs. these questions, and when you finish speaking, immediately send Mrs. to where you want to go."

Xia Yuzhi's words were sincere, his eyes were very clear, Mrs. Ruan didn't look like a bad person, not to mention that he had no motive to kill himself. Mrs. Nguyen's strings, which had been tense for many days, finally loosened, and tears began to fall. Some words have been held in my heart for a long time, and at this time I have some desire to talk.

Mrs. Ruan drank the hot tea served by Xiao An, settled her mind, and intermittently started from the death of Da Ruan.

Da Ruan is located in the southern border of Kang, the land is sparsely populated, and most of the people who fled here are refugees. Later, it multiplied from generation to generation, and only then did it have the situation of the past.

Knowing that he was not good at fighting, Da Ruan Guo chose to supply to Kangnan at the age of the year, in exchange for a corner of peace. poured out the power of the country, but it was the 30,000 horses that were destroyed by Gu Chenxiao, and they naturally would not take the initiative to raise troops.

The lord of the country and the husband of the Nguyen clan were originally brothers of the same mother, and they took the people of the country to live here, plough the fields and weave cloth, and their lives were also satisfactory. The bad thing is that three years ago, someone brought the jade seal of the previous Great Zhou Dynasty to find the king, asking him to plot a plan to recover the Great Zhou together.

The lord of the country, Su Zhizu, had an aunt and grandmother who had something to do with the Great Zhou Dynasty, and married His Royal Highness Chongjiu, the illegitimate son of the little emperor, as his wife, but he had little to do with the Ruan family.

What's more, the time has passed, and it is meaningless whether the Great Zhou Dynasty is prosperous or not, and the lord of Da Ruan does not want to hurt the lives of innocent people in the country with the war, so he refuses this matter on the grounds that he does not know the previous reasons. I didn't want to say all the good things, but the people who came didn't agree, and they still wanted Da Ruan to die and force each other.

After that, this person came twice more, and did not say anything about Da Ruan Guojun, and there was no more news.

I thought that the death of the country that day was just a threat, but who would have thought that not long after, Mrs. Ruan heard from her husband that Kang Nan suspected that they were colluding with the courtiers in a vain attempt to support the crown prince Gu Zhengnuo to force the palace, so they suffered this catastrophe.

Madame Ruan looked sad and wept sadly: "Da Ruan is weak, and the lord and husband are all benevolent people, who only want to be at peace with the people, how can they have the ability to collude with Kangnan's ministers? ”

The jade seal of the Great Zhou Dynasty was still in the world, Xia Yuzhi heard Mrs. Ruan crying, and knew that Kang Nan was used as a gunman. When asked about the appearance of the person that day, Mrs. Ruan lived in the mansion and had never seen it with her own eyes, so she naturally couldn't describe it, so she only bit her lip and said: "The deceased husband once mentioned that the man was born a great man, and he was a talent, who knew that he acted so ruthlessly." ”

As for the copper and tin mine for Gu Chenxiao, Mrs. Ruan explained: "It turned out that the aunt and grandmother of the Ruan family went back to the province when they returned to their hometown, and inadvertently said that His Royal Highness Chongjiu wanted to take the copper and tin ore in Yuping Mountain to cast weapons and use them to recover the Great Zhou. ”

Passed down from generation to generation, the Ruan family does not know the authenticity, and Mrs. Ruan's husband can only exchange this unwarranted secret with Gu Chenxiao in order to save the lives of his wife and children.

It was really providential, and the news reached Xixia through Gu Chenxiao.

But looking at the momentum of the Su family's long-term residence in Cangnan, Xia Yuzhi felt that this news was not groundless.

Xia Yuzhi kept his promise, and Haosheng reassured Mrs. Ruan and asked her if she had a safe place to go.

Mrs. Ruan is also a delicate woman, looking at a pair of children behind her, she hesitated: "The concubine is hiding in the countryside of Meizhou, and she can be found by adults, which shows that the world is so big that there is nowhere to stay." If the general really wants to save him, can he re-register the three concubines, mother and son, and I will hide in the downtown of this imperial city to see who else can come to find him?"

Mrs. Ruan made a desperate attempt to come up with this method, which was quite a bit of a female middle school Zhuge flavor. Xia Yuzhi thought that he might still use Mrs. Ruan in the future, and it was indeed more appropriate to stay under his nose in the imperial city, so he immediately nodded and agreed and told Xiao An to find Xiao Luochen to do it.

If the jade seal of the Great Zhou Dynasty is still in the world, it must be in the hands of the Su clan. The one who destroyed Da Ruan by divisiveness, needless to say, is a member of the Su clan. Thinking of Mrs. Ruan's mention of the majestic and tall person who came to lobby Da Ruan with a jade seal in his hand, Xia Yuzhi's gaze gradually overlapped with Su Guangfu.

When the Great Zhou Dynasty died, the world has been in constant dispute, and it has not been unified until now, speaking of the jade seal of the Great Zhou, it may still have its influence. Poor Da Ruan Guo has few weak soldiers, but just because he did not succumb to the other party's plan to return to Zhou, he was removed by the divisive plan like this.

The situation was no longer under Xia Yuzhi's control, and he directly reported all this information to Emperor Chongming.

The mountain rain was about to come and the wind was full of buildings, and Emperor Chongming pondered with his hands, and moved his mind to uproot the Su family. Just thinking of the only seedling of his brother-in-law made him undecided.

It is now the end of May, and several major events agreed upon by the emperor and queen are together, and the former and harem are very busy.

Less than four months before September, time is pressing, and the burden on Queen Chu is heavier. Every day, he was busy summoning the heads of various ministries such as the Shanggong Bureau and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the matter was trivial and important.
