Chapter 1163: Discussion

Zhu Rui stayed at Xie's house until dinner, and accompanied his fiancée Xie Mulin to say a lot of words, before reluctantly saying goodbye and leaving.

Although he won the opportunity to visit this time, it does not mean that he will be able to visit his fiancée twice in three days as he did in Beiping in the past. Not to mention that the Queen Mother and the Four Princes are still in the Forbidden City, and they need him to guard and serve day and night, even the mystery of the poisoning of the Four Princes, as well as many mysteries in the capital, also need him to spend time investigating. He had to discuss his thoughts (and the speculation of his fiancée Xie Mulin) with his father, King Yan, and persuade the other party to agree to his investigation, before he could mobilize most of the people in the capital. Among them, there are places that need to be reported to the emperor and seek the emperor's permission and cooperation, and it takes time and energy to prepare.

After that, his wedding to Shemulin was approaching. The elders are all around, and if he is more particular, it is very likely that he will prevent him from seeing his fiancée often. He had to find a way to fight with his elders and try to let them do what he could.

Thinking about it like this, Zhu Rui felt that he was really busy!

Zhu Rui, who was so busy, returned to the Yanwang Mansion, and entered the Forbidden City early the next morning to replace General Xiao Yuan, so that he finally had the opportunity to go home to reunite with his grandmother and mother, and to discuss his wedding arrangements with the lord of Yongping.

Now, with an excuse to treat the Queen Mother, Yan Wangfu can rest assured that under its own banner, it can buy and collect all kinds of medicinal materials for patients. Although some people with a heart found that the list of medicinal materials taken out by Yan Wangfu coincided with some of the medicinal materials when the Xie family received the medicine before, because the Xie family also received many other medicines, and indeed took out a newly brewed ointment, it did not arouse many suspicions for the time being. At most, some people who are familiar with pharmacology secretly wonder what disease the Queen Mother has, and why is the medicine used mostly related to detoxification, warming and replenishing qi and blood?

Could it be that the Queen Mother is poisoned?! Who would dare to poison the Queen Mother?!

There was a faint wave in the medical circle in Beiping City, and no one dared to say anything, but no one could stop some people from thinking nonsense. For the time being, the Yan Wangfu did not care about suppressing this kind of rumors of moderation in a small area, and they were arguing internally because of several ideas put forward by Zhu Rui.

But no matter what the outcome of the argument was, King Yan personally took his son to meet the Queen Mother and the Four Princes, and the four of them had a face-to-face discussion. No matter what kind of conjecture the four people have about the true face of the mastermind behind the scenes, they all agree that it is safe and prepared. So, the next day, King Yan sent his henchmen to the capital to send a secret fold, and at the same time, there was also a secret letter to Wan Long, the head of the Yanwang Mansion and the temporary intelligence director in the capital.

On the Xie family's side, they finally ushered in the visit of Huang Yan, the quasi-eldest son-in-law, and Mrs. Huang, the mother-in-law of the prospective family.

Although Huang Yan returned to Beiping with the Empress Dowager's fleet, he accompanied him on his own rented passenger boat all the way, not to mention knowing what happened on the Empress Dowager's ship and what nobles were added, even new friends such as the Ma family's father and son who had already become acquainted, he rarely saw them. He hadn't even met his future brother-in-law Juri much.

He could sense what was happening on the Queen Mother's ship, so he suddenly decided to speed up the trip and rush to Beiping as soon as possible. Although he didn't know what it was, he was already like an arrow, and he was happy to follow it all the way. Originally, there were a few northern jinshi who were interested in traveling together, but because they couldn't stand the speed of the ship and it was difficult to adapt, they retreated, broke away from the large army, and rented another boat to go north. In the end, those who could follow the Queen Mother all the way to Beiping, except for the Ma family, who were the imperial relatives, and the relatives, friends and relatives of several generals, there was only one outsider left in Huangyan.

After arriving in Beiping, the queen mother's boat drove straight into the Taiye Pool under the guidance of the Yan Wangfu, entered the Forbidden City, and the Ma family went to the Yan Wangfu.

He reported a letter of safety to the Xie family the next day, but he didn't have time to visit.

The Huang family finally produced another second-ranking jinshi who was born in the imperial examination, and the future is bright, even if the patriarch has a little Jiujiu in his heart, he will not dare to offend the rookie with the highest status in the family. He personally brought several clan elders and people who had studied well in the clan to Beiping to welcome Huangyan's mother and son back to their hometown, and several of them had spoken justice for their mother and son.

With the face of these old people, Huang Yan couldn't shirk it, so he had to pack his luggage immediately, return to his hometown with his mother Mrs. Huang, and worship his ancestors in a beautiful way, so that the whole family was happy first, and showed off in front of the villagers. Then he followed the elders to visit a circle of relatives, friends and neighbors, and first reacquainted the fellow villagers who had members of the family who were officials outside, and strengthened his own connections. He also went to visit the famous teacher Da Confucian, who had studied in the past, and met several classmates and the same year, to show that he had not forgotten the friendship of the old people because he was once noble.

When these things were done, he could return to Beiping City with his mother, and free up his hands to visit Yue's family to discuss his wedding with Xie Yinghui.

Xie Yinghui began to get nervous when she heard that Huang Yan's mother and son had entered the house. She was dressed up today, but she had no choice but to stay in her room and sit upright, and she couldn't go to the front courtyard. Xie Pu Xiumu was at home, and his wife Wen received his in-laws Mrs. Huang and future son-in-law Huang Yan together, and the eldest son Xie Xianzhi and the second son Xie Jinzhi sat on the side, and the two sides discussed the specific arrangements for the wedding very solemnly. There is no reason for the bride to come forward on this occasion, Rao is Xie Yinghui is anxious, and she can only stay in the back house honestly, waiting for news.

How could Xie Mulin bear to see his eldest sister sitting alone in a hurry? He pulled Xie Yingfen to sit with him. The third sister Xie Yingrong didn't want to come, but when she inquired, Xie Mulin came, and she had the heart to please the second sister who was about to become the princess of the county, so she had to curry favor with the eldest sister who married ordinary Hanlin by the way, so she also came over, and the four sisters sat neatly.

Xie Yingrong was so reluctant to please, but her biological mother, Aunt Da Jin, was much more interested than her. Since Zhu Rui's life experience was revealed, Aunt Dajin knew that the second girl would become the princess of the county, and she didn't think about who would be unlucky or anything in the future, so she immediately decided that a sister who was the princess of the county could bring a lot of benefits to the third girl she gave birth to. She was as careful as possible to give Xie Mulin courtesy, because Xie Mulin was friendly with Xie Yinghui and Xie Yingfen, she further offered her courtesy to the other two girls, hoping that these sisters could become Xie Yingrong's backers in the future and help her gain a firm foothold in her husband's family.

Today, Xie Yinghui's mother-in-law and her husband came to discuss the wedding, she opened the curtain in the main house and served tea, and by the way, she listened to the scene, and found an opportunity, so she sent the little girl to run errands and report to the eldest girl Xie Yinghui.

Seeing this, the other aunt Wanqin was unwilling to do the same thing, and inquired more carefully than Aunt Dajin. If she wants to please the second girl, she can only start with the eldest girl first. Xie Yinghui was originally the daughter of her old master, and she still has an incense relationship with her, and she is willing to give this courtesy, which is not awkward at all. But since she wants to be courteous, Wanqin will never allow Aunt Dajin to get ahead of her!
