Chapter 125: East Palace

"Daddy!" In the main hall of the courtyard where the Chen brothers lived, in the Chen family's Xicheng District, Beijing, after seeing Xia Jing, who had hardly slept all night because of his disappearance, Xia Chaoyang couldn't hold back his guilt, crossed the threshold and ran towards his father.

At the same time, Chen Juntang and Xia Shuanghan, who had seen each other again after nearly a year, also hugged each other at the same time after meeting.

Facing Xia Shuanghan, who should have eloped with his lover now, but suddenly appeared in his yard, Chen Juntang, who was concerned about his son, did not have unnecessary curiosity after feeling a little surprised. Immediately, in the following conversation, Xia Shuanghan also quickly learned about Chen Jinglun's illness.

When he was pushed to the ground, he hit the back of his head, and then fell unconscious and unresponsive, this is Chen Jinglun's current situation. And from yesterday's accident to the present, dozens of doctors who shook their heads and sighed and left after taking the pulse and applying needles have also taken away the hope in Chen Juntang's heart little by little.

"Chaoyang?! Sister Frost Cold?! Inside, on the edge of the bed in the bedroom, Chen Jingwei, who was sitting on a round stool beside the bed and holding the hands of his twin brothers, couldn't help wiping his tears, turned around after hearing the sound behind him.

Immediately, seeing Xia Chaoyang, who was safe and sound, and Xia Shuanghan, who suddenly returned to Beijing, jumped off the round stool and ran over with a little joy on his face.

"Chaoyang, are you alright?" Chen Jingwei, who took his good partner's hand and looked Xia Chaoyang up and down in a circle, said with concern: "What, in addition to these strangulation marks on your hands, do you have any other injuries?" ”

"I'm fine, I'm healthy, I'll be able to recover from these minor injuries in a few days." Xia Chaoyang, who had already listened to Chen Juntang talk about Chen Jinglun's condition in the main hall, didn't know how to comfort Chen Jingwei, whose eyes were red. Although, before Xia Shuanghan brought him to the Chen family, he had already told him that no matter what happened to Jinglun, it was not his fault. But at this time, looking at Chen Jinglun lying lifelessly on the bed, Xia Chaoyang still felt guilty in his heart.

"You don't take my brother's injury on yourself, you don't have that much ability!" Chen Jingwei, who knew what he was thinking at a glance at Xia Chaoyang's gloomy face, slapped him on the back and said: "If you want to blame those people who kidnapped you for this matter, you have a debtor and a debtor, and my father will seek justice for my brother for them!" ”

At the side, the two children who had finished talking walked to the bed; On the side, Xia Shuanghan, who had seen the unconscious Chen Jinglun, withdrew from the house with Chen Juntang, intending to return to the main hall.

In the face of Chen Jinglun's injury, Xia Shuanghan was very worried. She didn't dare to imagine what the Chen family would become in the future if Chen Jinglun kept falling asleep like this.

After all, Chen Juntang is a father who loves his children so much, and Chen Jingwei is a younger brother who has such a good relationship with his brother. But no matter how worried she is, she can't help, can she? She's not a miracle doctor after all.

sighed here, Xia Shuanghan, who was about to step into the main hall, suddenly remembered the divine doctor Shen Fanyi that Lu Shaoyun had mentioned to her when she was in Naming Village. In her previous life, many doctors said that her infertility could not be cured, but Shen Fanyi alone was sure to cure it completely, so if Shen Shenshen could be found now, would Chen Jinglun be saved?

After carefully going through this sudden thought in his mind, Xia Shuanghan finally chose to put Shen Fanyi's matter in his heart for the time being.

In the previous life, when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince found Shen Fanyi for Lu Shaoyun, it was in the last few months before Xia Shuanghan's death, which is equivalent to almost five years later. Being able to find Shen Fanyi in such and such a place in five years does not mean that Shen Fanyi can also be found in such and such a place five years ago, so it is better to wait for Lu Shaoyun to return to Beijing and then inform him.

After all, when Lu Shaoyun, who had become friends with Shen Fanyi in his previous life, returned to Beijing, let him carefully recall the travels and experiences that Shen Fanyi had told him, and deduce from this that where Shen Fanyi is now, and finally send someone to find it, which is obviously much more effective than Chen Juntang sending someone out to look for it now.

What's more, although Lord Jing Zhaoyin did invite a doctor for Chen Jinglun in his father's face, but after thinking about it, after a while, after Lu Shaoyun's father, Lu Shijie, the prince of the world, knew what Xu had done, he invited the doctor with guilt and apology, and his medical skills and grade would definitely be higher than the one who took the lead. With a more sophisticated Taiyi doctor diagnosis and treatment, maybe Chen Jinglun will be fine?

So, with such thoughts, Xia Shuanghan did not mention Shen Fanyi in the following brief conversation in the main hall, but directly skipped the reason why Xia Chaoyang was kidnapped, and explained straight to the point who caused Chen Jinglun's accident.

Subsequently, after roughly predicting to Chen Juntang the next apology and compensation that the Dingguo Mansion would make, Xia Shuanghan did not participate in how Chen Juntang planned to deal with the Dingguo Mansion, but stood up neatly, hugged his fists and left.

"Daddy, you're still waiting for me outside, and when I finish handling all the follow-up matters, I'll answer your questions again in the evening, okay?"

After saying goodbye to Chen Juntang, he estimated the time a little, and estimated that Xia Shuanghan, who had been staying in the Chen Mansion for a moment, could no longer let Lin Xuran, who had no contact with Chen Juntang and therefore did not enter the door, continue to wait outside. So, she quickly explained a few words to Xia Jingzhi, left the Chen Mansion, and reconciled with Lin Xuran.

Xia Chaoyang has already brought it back, the Xu family's affairs have also been stabbed in the Dingguo Mansion, and Chen Juntang has been informed of all the things that should be known, so is there anything unfinished about Xia Shuanghan who has done these things that has not been taken care of? Of course there is, and that is - Su Yixing.

Su Yixing's house arrest at the beginning and the subsequent series of troubles caused by her could not be solved by Xia Shuanghan alone. Therefore, in order to "give back" to Su Yixing for these troubles, Xia Shuanghan decided to let him also experience what it means to be "unsatisfactory".

Xiangyang Palace, unlike Dingguo Mansion, is not a place where Xia Shuang can land Xiaoqing's maintenance without permission. Su Yixing herself is not the same as Xu's subordinates, and she is not a person who can let her swing the whip by force. Therefore, if he wants to fight back against Su Yixing, all Xia Shuanghan can do is to take out the promise he got from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and use this method.

Although Su Yixing's actions and feet behind his back in order to get Xia Shuanghan made Xia Shuanghan feel unbelievable - where did he take a fancy to me, is it worth calculating me like this? But thinking of Su Yixing's most likely next step, asking the saint to give him a marriage to her, who had already dissolved the marriage contract, Xia Shuanghan, who didn't have time to take it lightly, still decided to preemptively make a decision on his marriage.

"Lin Zhu, you're not mistaken, right?" In the study of the East Palace, the crown prince Ouyang Han, who had finally been able to come to an end in the day's government affairs, put down the red pen in his hand, raised his head and glanced at Lin Xuran, who was standing in front of the desk, and asked again in a deep voice: "You just said that Tingxuan's fiancΓ©e, Miss Xia, has now returned to Beijing safe and sound, and she now wants to exchange Gu's original promise for a 'holy decree that she has full authority to decide all major matters in her life'?" ”

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, it is true." Before leaving the East Palace on the night he returned to Beijing, Lin Xuran, who received instructions from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that "if there is news of Miss Xia, come to the East Palace quickly", recalled the request made by Xia Shuanghan who was waiting outside the palace gate at the moment, and said truthfully: "Miss Xia said that she doesn't need fame and fortune, and the only thing she asks for is a holy decree of 'marriage autonomy'. ”

"Interesting, really interesting."

The reason why Ouyang Han originally instructed Lin Xuran to come to the East Palace as soon as he had the news of Xia Shuanghan was to make it easier for him to order someone to send the news to Lu Shaoyun as soon as possible, so that he could return to Beijing as soon as possible to resume his post after the task of arresting the red and white pills was completed.

It's just that he didn't expect that Xia Shuanghan, who suddenly appeared in the capital, put it in the first place in his heart, not Lu Shaoyun, who was far away at the border, but a holy decree to draw a clear line with the Dingguo Mansion.

I don't know that Xia Shuanghan's holy decree was not used to resist the marriage between the two families of Lu Xia, but to resist Su Yixing's Ouyang Han, and now he thinks like this: Didn't I say his ridicule before Ting Xuan left Beijing? Is it really not him that Xia Shuanghan really wants to marry?

Otherwise, even if there is the Empress Dowager's decree there, as long as Xia Shuanghan does not dissolve the marriage between the two families of Lu Xia, she can still marry Tingxuan by patiently waiting for the return of Dingguo Gong and Lu Tingxuan!

Ouyang Han knew about the marriage of Lu Shaoyun and Pei Huantingyi. The fact that the Xu family violated the entrustment of the Duke of Dingguo and entered the palace to ask for a decree without knowing that the marriage contract between Lu Shaoyun and Xia Shuanghan was still valid, did make the corners of Ouyang Han's mouth twitch when he heard about it.

It's just that when he heard about this matter after the decree was issued, due to the fact that Lu Xiaoqing and Lu Shaoyun were both far away at the border pass, Ouyang Han was not good at interfering in the affairs of the Dingguo Mansion, so he had no reaction to this absurd marriage.

But now, in the face of Xia Shuanghan's request, which is equivalent to drawing a line with Lu Shaoyun, Ouyang Han thinks that it is no longer possible for him to wait and see the changes like this without intervening.

So, he gave a reply that Xia Shuanghan had already expected: "Taking such a matter to my father and asking for an edict is a bit redundant, right?" Lone remembers that Xia Hanlin respects the traditions of the Rong people very much, and originally supported Miss Xia to choose her own son-in-law, right? ”

"Back to Your Highness, it is true." Like Xia Shuanghan, Lin Xuran also expected that her request would definitely be rejected at the beginning.

After all, the lifelong event of the daughter of a fifth-grade official is just a trivial matter in front of the saint of the day. Even if the saint appreciates Xia Hanlin's paintings, there is no need to make a holy decree for the "extra move" in the prince's mouth.

Ouyang Han, who paid attention to promises, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with going to his father to ask for such a holy decree for Xia Shuanghan, and he didn't know what Lin Xuran and Xia Shuanghan thought about his current refusal. So, he who wanted to keep Xia Shuanghan for Lu Shaoyun continued: "Since Xia Hanlin supports Miss Xia in choosing her own son-in-law, then the promise she made at the beginning will be saved until next time, when she thinks of any other requests, and then she will fulfill it!" ”

Ouyang Han's words contained the meaning of this conversation, but Lin Xuran, who had heard Xia Shuanghan predicting the prince's reaction outside the palace gate, could not leave now.

"What's wrong? Anything else? Recalling what Lin Xuran said, Lu Xiaoqing's old ministry had already passed on the news of Xia Shuanghan's return to Beijing, and Ouyang Han, who thought that he didn't need to arrange for someone to deliver the news to Lu Shaoyun, turned his attention back to the bookcase.

It's just that before he picked up the pen, Lin Xuran, who didn't quit, threw out another request from Xia Shuanghan.

"You said that Miss Xia's request, if Lone can't fulfill her first request, then change the request to that if the King of Xiangyang enters the palace to ask for the prince, please be sure to stop Miss Xia from marrying into the marriage of the Xiangyang Palace?"

Recalling Lin Xiran's words, Ouyang Han felt a little coke for a while: with Xia Shuanghan's appearance and background, whether it is to be Su Yixing's princess or concubine, it is not qualified. Why is she so confident that the king of Xiangyang will enter the palace to ask for a decree in order to help her son marry her?

Then, when Ouyang Han thought of the fact that Su Yixing had just returned from Tongcheng Pass, and the question of who saved Xia Shuanghan that he had just ignored, he immediately found the connection between the two: "Mo No, Miss Xia was rescued by Su Shilang and then brought back to Beijing, right?" ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise."

In response to Xia Shuanghan's request for Ouyang Han to stop the possible marriage of the Holy Lord, Lin Xuran was opposed at first. Thinking that as long as there are marriage letters and tokens between the Lu Xia and Xia families in hand, they can naturally resist Su Yixing, but he doesn't understand why Xia Shuanghan chose the way of "making a big fuss about the Guogong Mansion and then coming to ask His Royal Highness the Prince".

Until, Xia Shuanghan's words "If you don't return the token, it will be impossible for the Xu family to obediently shrink up" woke him up. As a result, Lin Xuran's opposition and incomprehension of Xia Shuanghan were all transformed into speechlessness and disdain for Xu.

Facing Lin Xuran's affirmative reply, the corners of Ouyang Han's mouth twitched, and he felt unusually coke again: it turned out that it was not "Little Pepper" who was amorous, but that Su Yixing really wanted to marry! It's just that this "little pepper" is neither willing to marry Ting Xuan nor Su Yixing, and his vision is too high, right?

Ouyang Han, who was silent for a moment, sighed in his heart: "I can't figure out the aesthetics of the Rong people, 'Little Pepper' can't even look down on outstanding men like Tingxuan and Su Yixing", and then agreed to Xia Shuanghan's request to ask Tuo Lin to relay it.

"I have thanked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on behalf of Frost and Cold." Lin Xuran, who finally lived up to his trust, saluted Ouyang Han and retired after getting the answer he wanted, and left the palace gate.

Subsequently, Xia Shuanghan, who couldn't enter the palace gate due to his low status, smiled happily after hearing the good news that Lin Xuran brought back: "Haha, Su Yixing, this time I have to let your bamboo basket draw water is empty!" (To be continued.) )
