Chapter 80: Reminiscences

Chu Yuxi listened to them chatting and gossiping, and then thought about going out.

Shi Cai walked through the front hall, and was directly stopped by Lu Hong, "If my sister-in-law goes out alone, I can't pay the errand." Once I can't pay the errand, I will definitely be punished by the second brother, and my sister-in-law must not bear to let me be punished, right? ”

Chu Yuxi glanced out from afar, "I don't plan to go out, I'm just going around here." ”

Lu Hong invited her in with a smile, "If my sister-in-law is bored, why don't you chat with me." ”

After instructing his subordinates to serve tea, Lu Hong took the initiative to talk: "Second brother, he is as careful as a hair, and he thinks about everything. Sister-in-law, don't look at the current peaceful and prosperous times, but there are a lot of things to do behind the scenes. The new emperor has ascended the throne so far, and I don't know how many people are dissatisfied and want to take his life. ”

"Fortunately, the situation is stable on the bright side at the moment, and the greed for ink has not become a trend, and the second brother can be a little more relieved."

Chu Yuxi only nodded in agreement, she didn't dare to discuss this political matter casually.

Feeling that the atmosphere was a little dull, Chu Yuxi changed the topic and said, "Ah Hong, you are not young, why don't you choose to start a family?" ”

Lu Hong hurriedly shook his head, "Let's settle this matter." I used to be used to being home all over the world, if it weren't for the fact that there was a second brother in the palace, I wouldn't have come back, and I would have gone to the mountains to be an idle cloud and wild crane, and I was happy. ”

Chu Yuxi stared at the celadon tea cup in his hand in a daze, "Does he also like to be an emperor?" ”

"Although the second brother was expected by everyone, he also withstood a lot of pressure back then...... Lu Hong began to recall the past, sighed lightly, and continued, "At that time, half of the people standing in the court were the eighth brother or the crown prince. Later, the crown prince was deposed, and the second brother was a person who did not seek to be heard, and the ministers of the court and the central government tried their best to promote the starling brother, and no one stood on the side of the second brother at all. ”

Chu Yuxi couldn't help but wonder: "Why is this, wasn't the Queen Mother the queen at that time, and her sister-in-law should inherit the throne." ”

"In the true sense of the word, the Queen Mother is the second queen of the first emperor. It's just that the queen mother is not strong enough after all, because her mother's power is not enough. Even if she is the queen, she has suffered a lot for this, and even if she wants to stand up and speak for her second brother later, no one cares. ”

"If it weren't for the edict of the first emperor clearly stating that the second brother would be appointed as the prince, the second brother would have been sent to the border by now, and he would have lost his life......" At this point, Lu Hong's face changed, his eyes were full of resentment, and then said, "The most annoying thing is that the edict came out at that time, and they still suspected that the edict was fake, but fortunately, there are still several ministers in the court to protect it, and Lord Li is one of them." ”

"Now it's hard to get this stability, but I don't seem to be very happy to be the emperor when I look at the second brother."

Lu Hong said so much, Chu Yuxi almost understood a rough idea.

"It's okay, now he has the woman he loves with him......"

As for why Chu Yuxi suddenly paused, it was because she thought of what Yan Huiyi said to her last time. I don't know that Yan Huiyi can have feelings for Ye Hansi now, after all, Ye Hansi treats her so fondly.

"Sister-in-law is talking about herself?"

Lu Hong suddenly showed a faint smile on his face, and looked at Chu Yuxi fixedly.

Chu Yu shook his head hurriedly, "How could it be me, I'm talking about Hui Yi." He treats her affectionately, and with her as his company, his life will be better no matter how difficult it is. ”

Lu Hong shook his head in veto, "It seems that my sister-in-law still doesn't believe what I said last time." "Ninety-nine Chinese

"It's not that I don't believe it, but it's not possible at all...... And the relationship between me and him is not as simple as you think. ”

Chu Yuxi lightly put down the tea cup in his hand, and then looked at the sun-soaked ground in the courtyard, and said slowly: "Why did I sit on the position of a noble concubine as soon as I left the cold palace, and why can I be so blessed by him." His personal title, and my many loves, are just what others see, and we tacitly hide them. ”

As if sensing Lu Hong's strange gaze, Chu Yuxi chuckled a little helplessly, "Am I talking too much, will you tell him this?" ”

"But in my eyes, he treats you more really than Yan Huiyi."

"That should just be the appearance, but I'm very happy to be taken out of the palace this time."

Chu Yuxi smiled bitterly, and suddenly recalled the words Leng Yilu said to him in his mind, plus he was recommended by Lu Hong, so Lu Hong should know some of the situation.

Thinking of this, Chu Yuxi's eyes rolled and led the topic to Leng Yilu, "Ah Hong, the deputy chef you recommended has very good skills. And the Leng family and our Chu family seemed to have a very close relationship before...... But I forgot what happened before, and I don't know why the two families are in this situation now. ”

"I don't remember how long ago it was, but it was probably that year when I was sent to garrison the frontier and rescued him when I passed through Kaju."

Karzhou, not far from the capital, Chu Yu listened with bated breath.

"He later told me that he had fallen overboard and had floated there with the current, and he was dying when I found him. It's also a coincidence, if I hadn't stayed overnight by the river at that time, he wouldn't have survived that night. ”

Fortunately, it was summer at the time, and although he had been floating with the current for nearly two days, he survived miraculously because of his life and no injuries on his body. I wanted to have him sent back to the capital, but he refused, so I took him to the border with me, and I have not returned until now. ”

"I thought he must have been hurt by love, and he was depressed for the first few months, and even had a few days to seek death, but I saved him. Now he's relieved a lot, and I'm relieved. As for the story of the two of you, I have never heard him mention it. ”

It turns out that what he said is close to reality.

Seeing Chu Yuxi's condensed face, Lu Hong couldn't help asking, "Sister-in-law, what does she remember about the past?" ”

"It's nothing ......" Chu Yuxi subconsciously bit her lower lip, and continued, "I just feel that he is such a handsome son but is like this because of a woman, I can't help but sigh." ”

Lu Hong didn't notice a layer of sadness in her eyes, and only said teasingly: "His mouth is very tight, I have known him for so many days, and I have never heard him mention a single cent about that woman, and he is also an infatuated person." ”

What happened between Leng Yilu and the original owner is not known at all. It must be a big deal when I think about it, otherwise how would the two families hide it so far. If she wants to know the answer, she can only find Leng Yilu herself.

Chu Yuxi had this thought in her heart, but she was not in a hurry.

"Who's the infatuated species?"

Ye Hansi's always cold and hard voice pulled Chu Yuxi back to reality. She was about to get up and salute because of her habit, but she remembered that it was outside the palace, so she did not stand up.

Lu Hong replied extremely briskly, "Leng Yilu." When my sister-in-law asked, I talked to her about it. ”

Ye Hansi sat down beside Chu Yuxi, and then took the tea handed by the maidservant and tasted it carefully, "You also asked me about him last time, are you so interested in him?" ”
