Chapter 178: Shot
Chen Jue listened, didn't speak for a long time, a thought came and went in her mind, and finally fell.
She pulled Chen Ying and said in a low voice: "You said, if something happens to Chen Luo and Shi Zhu is blamed again, do you and Shi Zhu have to reconsider this family matter?" And then there is Chen Luo, if his virtue is damaged and he is not suitable to be the son of the world, without his father's action, those spittle stars of the official can drown him! ”
Sister's idea made Chen Ying's heart pound, and her voice was a little hoarse: "What, why is it out of place?" ”
"Why are you so stupid!" Chen Jue said with a smile, "Shi Zhu thought that he could marry the prince of Zhenguo, and instructed the former subordinates of the Shi family to assassinate Chen Luo. Chen Luo was dissatisfied and wanted to kill you - but you didn't do anything! ”
You must know that there are many people competing for property and wealth in this world, but if people are killed because of this, the nature is different.
Such a person will kill people if he is dissatisfied, and he will kill people at every turn, who dares to stand with him.
Chen Ying's heart was alive, and she muttered: "Sister, Shi Zhu's matter is easy to say, if the Shi family is willing to protect her, this gossip will soon disperse." If the Shi family is unwilling to protect her, we don't do it, and some people jump out to speak. It's Chen Luo, who did he send? How to behave? I'm afraid that in the end, this lawsuit will be fought in front of the emperor, and no one will come out to bear this pot, I'm afraid it won't work. ”
Chen Jue said: "Money can make ghosts grind." You'll leave this to me. There's someone on your brother-in-law's side, and I'll ask him to help you get this done. ”
Chen Ying hurriedly gave her sister a look and said, "Thank you for your hard work, sister." ”
Chen Jue's eyes were red, thinking that if she did this well, her brother's title would be completed, and she would have nothing to worry about, even if she went underground one day, she could say "I did my best" to her biological mother in a dignified manner.
She couldn't help but gently pat her brother's shoulder and said, "It's good that you know." During this time, you have to avoid suspicion, it is best not to go anywhere, stay at home well, and coax your father well, your marriage has broken his heart. ”
"I know!" Chen Ying sent Chen Jue out.
Chen Jue returned to Ding's house.
The Ding family was born in the army, and his ancestors also had two or three general soldiers, and they were not called wealthy families in the capital, where the royal family walked everywhere, but this ancestor had more shade and lived a prosperous life. Especially after marrying Chen Jue and entering the door, their family's door level has increased by more than a star and a half, and the Ding family is holding this daughter-in-law up and down, so that Chen Jue has a very nourishing life in the Ding family. So when she went to greet her mother-in-law, her mother-in-law asked her very concerned about how Chen Ying's engagement was prepared, if there was anything she needed help with, and asked Chen Luo: "I heard that I have made a contribution to saving the eldest prince, and now I am recuperating in the Zhenwu Temple with the eldest prince." Do you think I'm going to prepare something for you, and you're going to take a look? ”
In the eyes of the Ding family, the title must be fought for, but this big picture must also be taken care of, there is no need to turn against the eldest princess when the flowers are still unknown, even if the eldest princess does not appreciate it, she must show it to the people in the capital.
Chen Luo saved the eldest prince......
Chen Jue is busy with Chen Ying's affairs these days, and it is the first time I have heard of it.
Didn't Chen Luo show his face again in front of everyone in the capital!
Chen Jue gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't expect that my younger brother still has this ability to save the prince!" ”
"Not really!" Chen Jue's mother-in-law felt that it would be best if the Chen family could have two lords in one family, and if Chen Luo could be made a hereditary official because of this, the relationship between the daughter-in-law's family would be gradually eased, so she said a few more words, "It is said that the Taoist masters of the Zhenwu Temple are all skilled and have the style of Sun Simiao, so the second son of Chen took the eldest prince to the Zhenwu Temple." said that when the eldest prince went, he was covered in blood, and he couldn't survive, if it weren't for the Taoist leaders of the Zhenwu Temple, he would have died a long time ago. No, the Chen Ru family next door came to meet and go to Zhenwu Temple in a few days, saying that their little grandson often has diarrhea, and last time I asked you to help invite a royal doctor, she wanted to take her grandson to seek medical advice......"
I also want to go over in the name of the Zhenguo Mansion, whether it is an ordinary temple or a shop in the capital, there is no one who does not treat them as guests.
Her mother-in-law glanced at Chen Jue.
It was easy for Chen Jue to endure the contempt in his heart.
This is the Zhenwu Temple boasting. They really don't know whether they live or die, and they even have to use the reputation of the prince. If the emperor turns his face one day and sets the punishment of the eldest prince, what will they do?
But Chen Jue asked the Ding family for some things, so he naturally didn't want to offend his mother-in-law at this time. She smiled: "I'm afraid that I don't have time these days, so I want to see Chen Luo, and I also have to see how my father arranges it." If you want to help Chen Ruren go to Zhenwu Temple for medical treatment, I don't have my father's name card there, but I have Chen Ying's name card, do you think it's okay? ”
Where did her mother-in-law dare to ask for the name of the prince of Zhenguo, and she responded to it and fooled this matter.
It's just that Chen Jue wrote a letter to her husband, but Aunt Ding didn't agree with her approach, and was afraid that she would take a risk, so she said: "I'm going back to the capital to report on work in a few days, and you wait until I go back." ”
Chen Jue pinched the letter and looked out the window at the osmanthus tree with small yellow bones blooming among the flowers without speaking.
*
The second prince hurriedly went to the Zhenwu Temple.
Xiaoyaozi thought that the Zhenwu Temple had already ended, so it was better to take this opportunity to sing a good play, even if the Zhenwu Temple withered again after the curtain ended, it would be better than having no name and no surname.
He personally received the second prince.
The second prince didn't even glance at him out of the corner of his eye, and went straight to the courtyard where Chen Luo was resting.
Chen Luo is fine, and because the scruples and expectations in the past are gone, he is relieved, and these days are like jewels, and he begins to reflect his own light.
He sat idly under the wisteria trellis in the courtyard, playing Go alone.
The golden sunlight of the morning sprinkled on his body through the dappled branches, and the moon-white Taoist robe with dark patterns of bamboo leaves was spotless, revealing the leisurely tranquility of the strands.
The second prince's heart suddenly looked like a boat overturned by a huge wave, and his face couldn't hold back the solemnity that had been taught by the grandmothers since he was a child, and he couldn't help shouting "Linlang".
Chen Luo looked back, lost the chess piece, got up indifferently, saluted him, and called him "Second Prince" in a calm and respectful tone.
The second prince's thousand words were all blocked in his throat.
Chen Luo grew up with him like a brother since he was a child, he has been a noisy person since he was a child, when has he ever been so polite to himself.
His mind was spinning quickly, thinking of Chen Luo's alienation from him since he went to the Criminal Department with the eldest prince, and thinking about being assassinated with the eldest prince, he suddenly found that he didn't seem to have said a word to Chen Luo since then.
"Are you complaining about me?" The second prince lowered his eyes and said such a sentence unexpectedly.
"Nope!" Chen Luo felt tired of all this, whether it was the second prince or the third prince, he didn't believe in these people who wanted to seek the world, he only believed in Wang Xi now.
He looked at the second prince calmly: "We have grown up, and there should have been a difference between monarchs and ministers, but I didn't think clearly or understand it before. You don't have to feel that there is anyone between us who is sorry for whom, and everyone will be moved by such a large piece of ancestral property. ”
The second prince opened his mouth and found that he had no way to refute it.
After a while, he said dryly: "It's not me." You know. Although I wanted to win the world, I didn't think about killing my siblings. ”
Chen Luo nodded and said, "I know it's not you." It's the emperor. He saw the second prince shaking his head at him in horror, raised his eyebrows and smiled disdainfully, but did not stop, but continued, "Everyone knows about this. You and I are brothers, there is no need to avoid it. I was just disheartened. You're in the middle of the game, and if you don't swim against the current, you're dead. If you have any problems, it's better to explain to the eldest prince. It would be better if I could make it clear to the third prince and the fifth prince. If you go outside, you must first settle inside! ”
After speaking, he smiled self-deprecatingly again and said, "This is just my family's words." Just listen to it and forget it. If you have a big idea, you have to take it from Qingyun Hou. Generations of courtiers have walked more bridges than we have walked. It's definitely more secure. ”
But each has his own ideas, unlike Chen Luo, no matter who is the emperor, he has a place, but he can treat their brothers sincerely.
The second prince said in his heart, thinking about the people who came behind him, but he never said this idea, but thought about it, pulled Chen Luo's arm as before, and said, "Let's go, come with me to see the eldest brother." I'm afraid he'll misunderstand me. ”
Chen Luo didn't want to get involved in their brother's affairs, and said, "I won't go." The eldest prince is not as dull as you think, and he knows very well what happened to me and his assassination. I won't have any thoughts about you. It's the third prince and the fifth prince, what do you think about it? There is also Qingyun Hou, who instructed the Yulin Zuowei, or think about how to explain to the emperor? “
The second prince gritted his teeth, forcibly pulled Chen Luo, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, you and I will go to see the eldest brother together." “
Does he want to be able not to mix in without mixing in?
The emperor deceived people too much, since he wanted to make trouble, then everyone would make a big fuss.
Chen Luo was dragged by the second prince and went to the pharmacy where the eldest prince was resting.
The second prince didn't notice the coolness that burst out of Chen Luo's eyes the moment he lowered his head.
*
The eldest prince has returned "safely", of course, his illness cannot be completely handed over to Zhenwu Temple, and several imperial doctors sent by the emperor are waiting in the tea room next to the pharmacy. After the second prince finished asking about his illness, he sent them all away, and asked Xiaoyaozi, who stayed in the house: "Is there really nothing wrong with the eldest brother's illness?" ”
Xiaoyaozi endured it so that he didn't look at Chen Luo, and said: "What the eldest prince means, he has been injured so badly, he may not be able to do well in the future, and most of the emperor's errands are weak, and he needs to recuperate for a long time." ”
It is impossible for Sheji to have a physically flawed emperor.
The second prince was stunned, and felt that he had really come to the Zhenwu Temple this time.
He looked eagerly at the Great Prince.
The eldest prince bowed his head lightly at him and said, "I think this is the best." ”
Didn't the emperor want to use him to deal with the second prince? He just let himself become a waste chess player to see what the emperor could do.
Maybe he'll find a chance to pull back a game!
The second prince suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, and although his face was not obvious, the eldest prince still quickly glanced at Chen Luo, who was expressionless.
Sure enough, it's a good move!
