Chapter 421: Caught off guard
After such a troublesome nursery rhyme, that night, Master Han took Mrs. Han to Chen's house to apologize.
Such an experience, nursery rhyme remembers that there seems to be a time before, this time she didn't have a smile on her face, but she didn't continue to embarrass the Han family, even if it was like this.
Seeing that winter is coming, the people at home are also busy, even Yun Niang will not stay by the little pumpkin all day long, she is going to start making clothes.
"Hey, this year's cotton prices have risen a lot compared to last year, if it were in the past days, I would be reluctant to buy such cotton."
Although she has lived a good life, some of Yun Niang's concepts have not changed.
The nursery rhyme also took a needle and thread to make clothes with Yun Niang, and when she heard this, her eyes paused, and she raised her eyes to look at Yun Niang.
"Mother, what about other things, the price has also increased?"
"Not really."
Yun Niang quickly shook her head, and the nursery rhyme laughed.
"It's okay, just like my mother said, we are not short of money, and the new clothes are warm to wear."
Tong Yao felt that it was troublesome to make clothes, so she found another way to make gloves and knee pads, hats and padded jackets for Chen Xuan.
Yun Niang watched her make these things and didn't ask too much.
It was getting late and getting early, and Tong Yao looked out the window, then put down the needle and thread in his hand, tilted his head and asked Xiaolan.
"Second master, why haven't you heard movement at this time, haven't you come back yet?"
Xiaolan nodded.
"Madam, the second master should have something delayed, why don't you go to Mr. Li's house to ask about the situation?"
The nursery rhyme nodded slowly.
Xiaolan also walked quickly to the front, and came back after a while, but she was not alone when she heard the footsteps, and the corners of her mouth hooked.
"Mother, don't do it, it should be A-Qing back, let's eat the meal first."
Saying that, he got down from the couch, and was about to look for the little pumpkin, when he saw a round ball rushing towards him, and the corners of the nursery rhyme's eyes were crooked, and he hugged the little round ball in his arms.
"Mother,"
Xiao Yuanqiu happily hugged his wife's thighs and screamed sweetly.
The nursery rhyme gently patted his little buttocks.
"I'm not very old, but I'm quite strong, and I almost didn't knock my mother down."
The little pumpkin seemed to understand the words of his mother, so he slowly took a few steps back, and then pounced again, playing happily, the nursery rhyme was a little speechless, but he was very happy in his heart.
"Alright, alright, let's go eat first."
"Eat."
As soon as the little pumpkin heard about eating, he also screamed, and his little face was full of smiles, which was enough to prove that the temptation of food was for him.
"Little gluttonous cat."
Nursery rhyme nodded his forehead.
Yun Niang also put down the work at hand at this time, walked over slowly, and looked at the nursery rhyme disapprovingly.
"You can be lighter, the child's skin is tender, you are heavy-handed, you don't have to hurt the child."
"Mother, I'm also your daughter, okay, I don't always have to stand on this little guy's side, besides, I'm just a little light."
The nursery rhyme muttered quietly.
Yun Niang was a white nursery rhyme, and she stretched out her hand to hug the little pumpkin, but the little pumpkin refused, he was tired of crooking on the nursery rhyme's shoulder, and held the nursery rhyme's face and gnawed a few bites, that look, so that the little awkwardness in the nursery rhyme's heart was also removed, and she only felt that her son was the best man in the world.
Seeing that Yun Niang didn't know what to say, but the smile on the corner of her mouth didn't fall.
By the time the three of them walked to the living room, Chen Qing was already sitting in his place.
"Sister-in-law."
The nursery rhyme's gaze swept around Chen Qing's body, and when he saw that it was the same as usual, he smiled.
"Now that the weather is cold, I guess it's better to give way to send you to Fuxue in a carriage, if you exercise, it's okay to exercise at home."
Chen Qing walked to and from school to school, saying that he wanted to exercise, and he agreed with the nursery rhyme about this, but now that the weather is cooler, sometimes it is a paved street with green bricks, and it is easy to fall when it rains.
Nursery rhyme especially remembers that in her modern college days, there was a boy in their major who jumped off the national flag stand in order to play, the height was actually only about one meter, he was favored by the grace of fate, and he broke his bones sadly.
Chen Qing looked up at the nursery rhyme and nodded slowly.
"Sister-in-law, I see."
"Well, I'm tired of the day, eat more."
With that, everyone started moving.
Originally, their family was not as silent as other families when they ate, but now with the addition of a little pumpkin who loves to eat by himself, it is even more lively on the table, of course, just the rice that emerges from the mouth of the little pumpkin can already feed two little chicks.
"Sister-in-law, I heard from the gentlemen in the school that the emperor's illness was cured, and he was cured with the medicine sent by King Han."
Nursery rhymes wrinkled no, King Han?
She spoke subconsciously when she had the opportunity.
"The emperor's illness is cured, and the other princes should be safe, right?"
Chen Qing smiled and shook his head.
"I don't know about this, but because of this incident, I heard that the emperor greatly rewarded King Han and gave him more fiefs."
"Zi, are you really not worried about King Han's rebellion?"
Yun Niang listened to the nursery rhyme, and was so frightened that she didn't hold her chopsticks steady.
"You kid, just say it at our house, don't go outside and say it, if someone hears it, you will be killed at that time."
Tong Yu and Chen Qing looked at Yun Niang at the same time.
The former shrugged and smiled, and said comfortingly.
"Mother, I'm just talking about it casually."
The latter said with a frown.
"Sister-in-law, don't you think it's strange? It was said before that the emperor couldn't resist it, but now because of King Han's medicine, is it possible that there is really a medicine to revive the dead in this world? ”
The nursery rhyme didn't think about anything else at all, she didn't expect that Chen Qing, a child who was only a teenager, would start to care about the political branch, and also think about conspiracy theories, she suddenly felt a little sorry for this child, if Chen Qing didn't know Chen Xuan's identity, he would be like Yun Niang and them, and he wouldn't be so tired in his heart.
"Ah Qing, do you think there is a problem here?"
Chen Qing nodded.
Yun Niang looked at this uncle and sister-in-law with a sad face, how could it be so related to the royal affairs.
The nursery rhyme listened to Chen Qing's words, and the smile on his face also retracted, no matter what the emperor's illness is, it is a fact that the emperor is old, there are so many emperors recorded in history, and there are many Ming monarchs who will become violent in their old age, only caring about their own thoughts, and will not put the interests of the people in their eyes at all.
She was genuinely worried that something else would happen.
Chen Qing was silent when she saw the nursery rhyme, and did not disturb her, but talked to the little pumpkin while eating, the little pumpkin's second favorite is the little uncle, Xu was tired of eating, so he sat in Chen Qing's arms and enjoyed the feeding of his little uncle.
After the nursery rhyme finished eating, she sat in the yard and looked at the little pumpkin riding on Chen Qing's body, the corners of her mouth hooked, but her thoughts slowly drifted away, she always had some panic, what is Chen Xuan doing now?
He also told her before leaving, it was really in case, he said that he had arranged a way back for her and the little pumpkin, which sounded like a bastard, and the nursery rhyme didn't want to pay attention to him at all, but now that he thought about it, he knew the danger on this road early on.
It was late at night, and the nursery rhyme sat in front of the couch, looking at the letter in her hand, which was written about what happened in the capital during this time, and the more she looked at it, the more she frowned.
"The Third Prince was sent to the Northlands? The second prince was sent to Fuzhou? ”
The last time Chen Xuan came back from writing a letter, he also said that he was in the south, although he didn't say the specific location, but Tong Yu was already very uneasy when he looked at this information, could it be that the emperor found something wrong?
Scar bowed his head.
"This is the emperor's holy decree after he recovers from his illness."
"Was the emperor really sick before? And where did King Han get the holy medicine, which can save a critically ill person, if there is really such a medicine, and who is the hand, if there is really such a person, why haven't we heard any news here? ”
These are all nursery rhyme questions.
"If Mrs. Hui is concerned, the emperor is not sick."
The nursery rhyme immediately looked at Scar.
Scar said slowly.
"According to the informant in the palace, the emperor is pretending to be sick, as the emperor is getting older, none of the adult princes below are safe, and over the years, except for the crown prince, the emperor has not sealed any prince fiefdom, all the princes are in the imperial city, just want his son under his nose, but in the end, it is the same bloodline, the emperor's sons are more than one by one, each developing its own power, and now there are quite a lot of factions in the DPRK and China, which has made the emperor feel threatened, That's why he acted and directed the play. ”
Sure enough, there is no family affection in the family on this day, father and son calculate each other, and it is normal for brothers to harm themselves.
But to get this news, I think the identity of the informant who came to their side should also be very high, but she won't ask too much.
"In other words, King Han and the emperor conspired with this play?"
"It's not."
Scar replied.
The nursery rhyme frowned, it's not a conspiracy, so isn't King Han the one who picked up the leak?
Seeing that the nursery rhyme did not speak, Scar raised his head and glanced at the nursery rhyme, and then said.
"Madam, King Han is not as simple as it seems on the surface, and the emperor is also suspicious of him."
Tong Yao felt that she urgently needed Chen Xuan to be by her side and analyze with her, she was really suitable for business, and she was really powerless in this political matter.
"Although the emperor rewarded King Han, this time there is also Lord Qincha who will personally come to King Han's fiefdom."
Suddenly, the nursery rhyme had a light in her brain, and her eyes lit up.
"You mean."
