Chapter Seventy-Five: Sick

Seeing this urgent letter, Xu Shiqiu didn't care about finding a letter for Dong Shu, so he hurriedly dropped the other letters and opened the letter.

Xu Shiqiu first glanced at the letter at a glance and three lines, and after knowing what it was, he breathed a sigh of relief and began to read the letter carefully.

Dong Shu was originally waiting for Xu Shiqiu to get the letter for herself, but after seeing Xiang Gong's next move, she couldn't help but open her mouth until she watched Xiang Gong carefully read the letter in her hand.

"Xianggong, but something happened in the capital?" After Dong Shu asked this, he thought for a while and continued: "It's not that Yanzhu has an accident, right? ”

"It's not." After hearing Dong Shu's inquiry, Xu Shiqiu subconsciously replied, then looked up at Dong Shu and said, "It's not Yanzhu, it's a saint." ”

Dong Shu planned to ask again after hearing that it was not Xu Yanzhu who had something to do, but she didn't expect that she didn't ask, but her father-in-law told her.

"The saint was a little unwell in the autumn, and originally thought it was a small wind and cold, but it didn't get better after a month. Because the saint has always been bad, the capital is a little chaotic. Xu Shiqiu opened his mouth to talk about this, but he was thinking about what might happen in the capital now.

Dong Shu didn't understand so much, after hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, she hesitated for a moment, then looked at Xu Shiqiu and said, "Then this matter has an impact on Yanzhu?" ”

"Not only Yanzhu, but also my sister, I'm afraid that I will be affected because of this incident." Xu Shiqiu looked at Dong Shu After saying this, he sighed in his heart, and then lowered his head and found Xu Yanzhu's letter to the little lady in a pile of letters, "Yanzhu's letter to you." Saying this, Xu Shiqiu also sent the letter in his hand to Dong Shu.

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, Dong Shu immediately dropped what he said just now, happily accepted the letter he sent, and then slowly opened it, and looked at it in front of Xu Shiqiu.

When Dong Shu took a serious look at the letter Xu Yanzhu wrote to her, Xu Shiqiu picked up the letter she had just read and looked at it repeatedly.

The emperor is sick and has not been well, but the palace has not established the prince's holy decree for a long time.

Although several princes who had a chance to compete for the throne in the recent period did not make any trouble, he knew that this must be the calm before the storm.

They didn't dare to make any noise now, it must be that although the emperor was not good at the wind cold, it was only the cause of the wind cold.

Feng Han is indeed fatal, but Ye Shuo's letter also said that the emperor still goes to the morning court every day, but the speed of reviewing the folds is a little slower, and he begins to reuse several princes.

If it weren't for the fact that the hospital carefully treated the emperor every day, and the emperor's appearance was indeed a little haggard, I am afraid that some people would suspect him of pretending.

Several princes felt that this was the emperor's last test for them, so even if they were dissatisfied, they endured it.

Ye Shuo's letter also said that King Duan proposed to hand over the military power, but was rejected by the emperor.

But Ye Shuo found out from his father that this time King Duan's proposal to hand over the military power was discussed with the emperor.

If this trick of handing over the military power was really discussed between King Duan and the emperor, then this is just a play they played, maybe the emperor has already decided who will take over the military power, and now what he is waiting for is to see if anyone takes the initiative to jump out.

After figuring out this in his heart, Xu Shiqiu was faintly worried about Xu Yanzhu.

Xu Yanzhu has just married into the Jiang family, and he may not have had time to investigate what happened back then, but now that such a thing has happened, if the crown prince really falls on the third prince in the end, then even if they find out something, I am afraid it will be difficult to trip him.

Because of this, Xu Shiqiu thought about it for several days and didn't come up with a good idea.

Fortunately, in the past few days, Dong Shu's mind has been attracted by Dong Miao's marriage, otherwise she would definitely find out that Xu Shiqiu was wrong.

It stands to reason that Dong Lei has not yet married, and Dong Miao is not easy to marry.

But the Dong family now understands that Dong Lei follows Xu Shiqiu, as the business of the teahouse in the county gets better and better, and Dong Lei gradually begins to help deal with the things in other shops, he will be more and more valued by Xu Shiqiu.

Now the ordinary girl in Xiahe Village is not worthy of him.

Under such circumstances, Dong Miao, who is one year older than Dong Shu, is naturally not good to delay, and at Dong Lei's insistence, after agreeing to be the only son of a grocery store in the town, he decided to marry in the month of Layue this year.

Because of this, Dong Shu was attracted to attention, although she was pregnant and couldn't go out, but listening to it every day also passed a lot of time.

Originally, Xu Shiqiu's plan was to take Dong Lei away, and then teach the Dong family a lesson.

But I don't know if Dong Lei noticed something or what's going on, under Dong Lei's advice, the Dong family has been very peaceful recently.

At the beginning of autumn, Xu Shiqiu did take the opportunity of Dong Lei's absence before to toss the Dong family, especially the Dai family.

But Dong Miao, who had been told by Dong Lei, was at home, so after Dai heard that Dong Shu wanted to eat chestnuts and roast roast rooster, he not only grabbed the little rooster at home, but also picked a lot of chestnuts, peeled off the thorns outside, and let Dong Miao send Dong Miao to Xu's house with the little rooster.

If this is the case alone, Xu Shiqiu may find a way to toss Dai's again, but he learned from Dong Miao's mouth that Dai's small quilt was prepared for the child in Dong Shu's womb at home.

"My mother said that although Shu'er was born in the spring, she still had to do the hundred quilts made by her grandfather's family, that is, the people in the village were not rich, and the faces of the small quilts were all burlap.

However, the inside of the small quilt is the muslin I bought in the town, and it has also been washed, so it will definitely not make my little nephew uncomfortable. ”

Dong Miao's words were said to Dong Shu, although Dong Shu was not moved, but she decided that the eldest aunt would change so much, it must be because of her cousin's relationship.

"The eldest aunt listens to her cousin's words the most, this matter must be explained by her cousin, and with her cousin's explanation, the eldest aunt will indeed do this."

After listening to the little lady's words, Xu Shiqiu also guessed that it was very likely that Dong Lei had told Dai when he left home.

It's just because of this incident that he had to postpone the thing that he had thought of teaching Dai a lesson this winter.

Even if it weren't for Dong Lei, Xu Shiqiu would have some scruples now.

After all, the little lady is still pregnant, and Dai's is making hundreds of quilts at home every day, which is related to his own children, so he naturally has to be much more cautious.

However, although Dong Shu was attracted to Dong Miao's marriage, Xu Shiqiu's wrongness was still discovered by Mrs. Xu.

"Shi Qiu, have you been on your mind lately?" After Mrs. Xu looked at Xu Shiqiu and finished saying this, she saw that he seemed to want to deny it, so she hurriedly continued: "It should be that after the letter from the capital was sent a few days ago, you have something on your mind. ”

Xu Shiqiu originally wanted to deny it, but after hearing Mrs. Xu's words, he could only shake his head helplessly and said, "I do have something on my mind." ”

After Dong Shu heard Xu Shiqiu's words, she stared at him in surprise and said, "Xianggong, I didn't know you had something on your mind. After saying this, Dong Shu, who was holding her stomach, sighed softly and continued: "If it weren't for my mother opening her mouth today, I might never have found out that Xianggong had something on your mind." ”

Hearing Dong Shu's words, Xu Shiqiu looked at her and smiled, and then said: "Lady doesn't need to be sad, I deliberately covered it up, so it's normal that you didn't find it." Xu Shiqiu naturally didn't want to see his little lady sad, so after saying this, he hurriedly looked at Mrs. Xu and made a look.

After Mrs. Xu received Xu Shiqiu's eyes, she couldn't help but smile, first looked at Dong Shu and said: "Dong, my mother can see through Shi Qiu's heart, it is because my mother has rich experience, and then my mother gave birth to Shi Qiu after all. After saying this, after Yu Guang saw that Xu Shiqiu was still dissatisfied, Mrs. Xu continued to smile and said, "You have been married to Shi Qiu for less than a year, how can you have a mother to understand Shi Qiu." In the future, if you and Shi Qiu have been together for a long time, you will definitely know Shi Qiu better than your mother. ”

As soon as Dong Shu heard Mrs. Xu's words, her eyes immediately lit up and said: "Mother is right, when I have been with Xianggong for a long time, I will definitely find out that Xianggong is wrong soon." ”

Xu Shiqiu really didn't expect the little lady to say such a thing, listening to the little lady's words, Xu Shiqiu also understood why his mother said such a thing just now.

He was originally worried that the little lady would be angry because of his concealment, but now it seems that the focus of his little lady is not this at all.

Because he was sure of this matter, Xu Shiqiu dared to watch his mother open her mouth and say something about the things in Ye Shuo's letter before.

"I'm worried now that Yanzhu hasn't started to investigate, and the third prince will be made the crown prince." Xu Shiqiu watched Old Lady Xu finish saying this, and saw that Old Lady Xu also frowned and pondered, and hurriedly continued: "If the Holy Lord can live for a few more years, it is not impossible for us to trip over a prince, but if we ......"

Xu Shiqiu didn't say what he said next, and Mrs. Xu also understood.

As long as the third prince does not ascend the throne for a day, even if he is the crown prince, he can be killed, but if he ascends the throne as emperor......

"Hey, Shiqiu, it's really not good, you better go back to Beijing." Mrs. Xu wanted to say this for a long time, but she didn't have a suitable opportunity before, but now when she heard what Xu Shiqiu said, she opened her mouth and said, "Although Yanzhu is in the capital, you are too far away from the capital here, even if there is any news in the capital, I will send it to you quickly, and when you have arrangements, it will be too late." ”

Mrs. Xu was right, she was not in a hurry before, and asked Xu Yanzhu to go to the capital to collect news because she didn't know the news of Shengshang's illness.

But now, if the Holy Lord really appoints the three princes as the crown princes, their plans will be much more difficult.

And if the saint is not good, even if the capital sends him news, when he arrives in the capital, the third prince is afraid that he will also ascend the throne.

"But now there is no suitable opportunity for me to return to Beijing, and besides, the mother is about to give birth, and I don't feel at ease to leave at this time."

Xu Shiqiu looked at Mrs. Xu and spoke, although she didn't say it too clearly, but Mrs. Xu could still understand.

She knows her son's bad luck that he will be safe and sound recently, and that is because of the blessed Dong family by his side.

If he goes to the capital alone, maybe he will be exposed before he arrives in the capital.

After all, his luck of being unlucky if anyone gets close to him is too evil, and no one in the capital doesn't know it.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Xu couldn't help but sigh.

Seeing his mother sighing, Xu Shiqiu didn't speak again.

It's just that Xu Shiqiu and Mrs. Xu didn't expect that Xu Shiqiu's opportunity to return to the capital would come so soon.
