The group re-embarked on the road, and after entering Beijing, they first went to the inn chartered by the Duke's Mansion to settle the students of Yanjingshan, and then the couple washed and changed their clothes, and before sunset, they took the nurse and maid to visit the Duke's Palace with their daughter and son-in-law.

Just happened to pick up the return of the parents and sisters, the family met outside the house, and the three sisters pounced on themselves.

I haven't seen each other for a few months, and like Pingjun, the girls have grown a lot taller, and they have heard the fourth brother talk about what happened to the third sister-in-law, although they can't say comforting words, but their eyes are full of distress.

After the third lady exchanged a few words with everyone, she hurried to Xiyuan to take a look at her little son, and the third master did not stop her, but stayed by herself, leading the way into the door for the lord and wife of the in-laws, and sent them to her mother.

Yan Jingshan has been to Beijing many times, and knows the prosperity of the aristocratic family in the capital, and has heard his wife and daughter describe the situation in the Duke's Mansion before.

The old lady personally greeted outside the courtyard gate, telling Yan Jingshan and his wife not to dare to be, to sit down at the door, Zhu Rong and Fuyi saluted to his father and mother again, the old lady said to Mrs. Yan: "The child has suffered so much, after all, it is my grandmother who failed to protect her, but in the future, the world will be peaceful, I will never have such a thing again if I live for a day." ”

The husband and wife got up, Yan Jingshan bowed and said: "Old lady, the past is over, the important thing is a family reunion, the younger generation entrusts your intentions to your knees, there is nothing to worry about, it is this child, but also the creation of our couple." ”

After that, Yingzhi Pingjue's sisters and brothers saluted their grandmother again, Chu Xue supported the second lady to meet the guests, and the third lady hugged Pingzhen, and then waited for Pingluo and Pingrui to go home, which was to hold a banquet and gather together.

Before the banquet, Zhu Chengzhe went to Xinghuatang to visit his eldest brother, but the two brothers broke up unhappily, Zhu Chengqian did not want to show up and did not want to meet guests in Xinghuatang, Zhu Chengzhe returned to his mother, and he could only say that the eldest brother was sick and should not meet.

Yan Jingshan is elegant and upright, and will not hang the joy and anger of these things on her face, Mrs. Yan only has her daughter in her eyes, and she is not interested in the things of her father-in-law and his wife.

In this way, the family members of the Zhu family are a little less embarrassed, and because the men and women are at the same table, the whole family is together, and the third lady talks about her experience before and after.

Speaking of the night of the Pingli robbery of the prisoner's car, the third lady thought that the second sister-in-law was going to die, and the two concubines, who had quarreled for half their lives, had tears in their eyes, and they decided to live in harmony in the future, and they didn't care about the past.

Min Yanshi returned late, just walking with Kaijiang, Zhu Rong couldn't help but tease when he saw him: "Why did you come here, I don't dare to invite you?" ”

Kaijiang said angrily: "You are enough, or are you not a brother, do you want me to kneel down and kowtow to you?" You don't want to think about it, after you leave, who will take care of you in the capital? ”

Fuyi smiled and introduced his parents to Kaijiang, he saw his uncle and aunt, so he praised Fuyi for a while, and Mrs. Yan smiled and squinted.

Zhu Rong pulled him over in disgust: "Sit down and eat." ”

Kaijiang said solemnly: "I'm not looking forward to your father-in-law, saying a few more kind words for me in front of the prince." ”

Zhu Rong said: "You have this thought, why don't you make the eldest princess happy." ”

Kaijiang was embarrassed and said: "If I can't see it, what can I do, and she won't come out." ”

The kung fu of their speech, the soft voice felt uncomfortable because of the joy, and the second lady took the initiative to send her daughter-in-law back, Pingrui was not sure, but after looking at the eldest brother next to him, he still endured it.

The family understands that since Rouyin is determined to stay here, the matter between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will have to be faced sooner or later.

After the reception banquet, they had to wait for the list to be released before they could get together again, and the old lady sent her in-laws to the gate of the courtyard, and stayed under the repeated pleas of the couple.

After that, Yan Jingshan went to Qingqiu Pavilion to take a look, and drank a cup of tea in his daughter and son-in-law's study, and the husband and wife ordered their daughter to rest early, and only let Zhu Rong and Kaijiang send them back to the inn.

In addition to the Duke's Mansion for the in-laws and Mrs. to charter the entire inn, it is also equipped with maids, the vegetables, fish and meat in the kitchen will be sent by the Duke's Mansion every day, and the backyard is full of carriages and sedan chairs, meticulous, Zhu Rong is grateful to the eldest sister-in-law.

He sent the second elder upstairs, Kaijiang and others downstairs, avoiding Kaijiang, Yan Jingshan and his wife could say some private words, Mrs. Yan asked bluntly: "Rong'er, can Fuyi's body be damaged, will it prevent her from getting pregnant and giving birth in the future?" ”

Zhu Rong said truthfully: "The military doctors in the camp can't see too many doorways, after all, they are not good at Qianjinke, but after returning to Beijing, Fuyi has been reluctant to see Langzhong, otherwise the famous doctors in the capital, as well as the imperial doctors in the inner palace who are the best at Qianjinke, will be selected by her." But she didn't want to see it, saying that she didn't know if there was anything to do before she was comfortable, otherwise she would have been bitter just by drinking medicine every day. I discussed with my grandmother that it would be better to let her please. ”

Yan Jingshan said: "You are worried about your mother-in-law, because Fuyi can no longer have children, and it hinders your husband and wife from taking the title." ”

Zhu Rong bowed and said: "Letting the eldest brother be the eldest brother is the result of my joint consultation with Fuyi, as well as with my family. In the future, I will help the queen to help the world, and if I am entangled in housework again, I am afraid that I will lose the other. Naturally, there are many more detailed reasons for this, and fathers and mothers will understand it in the future. ”

Mrs. Yan sighed: "These are all things outside the body, we don't care, we just hope that you are healthy and safe, and we are satisfied." ”

Zhu Rong said: "Mother, I didn't protect Fuyi, but since Fuyi doesn't blame me, since I am still qualified to stay by her side, in this life, I will not ask anyone to bully her again." ”

Yan Jingshan bowed: "We believe in you, it's just that Ling Zun Lingtang has such an attitude, and we don't want to be entangled more, you have a lot of tolerance." ”

Zhu Rong said: "In fact, the mother-in-law has left, and she signed a peace and divorce document with her father, and she is no longer a husband and wife. ”

Mrs. Yan was surprised: "How can this be?" ”

Yan Jingshan said angrily: "Don't be surprised, make people laugh." ”

Zhu Rong said: "Father and mother have a hard journey, please rest early today, and let the children explain the family affairs to the second elder later." In addition, to put it inappropriately, at present, students from all over the world are gathered in the capital, along with their families and teachers, and because of the family, it is rare to come to visit their father, so as to touch the lintel of the Duke's Palace. Naturally, my father can see anyone he wants, but if someone he doesn't want to see comes to visit, we have sent a servant to deal with it outside the door, and they have a way to send it, and my father doesn't have to worry. ”

Yan Jingshan smiled: "I have my own measure, you should go back earlier." ”

Zhu Rong saluted again, and left his father-in-law and mother-in-law to retreat, but when he went downstairs, he didn't see Kaijiang sitting in the original place, and when he went out to look for him, he saw him standing vigilantly on the street.

"What's wrong? Quirky? Zhu Rong was also alert.

"I can't say it, but I'm a little frizzy in my heart." Kaijiang's gaze swept the surroundings inch by inch, shook the sword in his hand and said, "Do you think there will be anyone who will cause trouble during the scientific expedition?" ”

Zhu Rong also looked around keenly and asked, "What's the picture?" ”

Kaijiang said: "Trying to be famous, or ......"

The brothers glanced at each other, knowing in their hearts that if something happened in the scientific expedition, the emperor and a large number of Beijing officials would lose face.

Although this scientific examination was set by the first emperor, it can be regarded as the first major event after the new monarch ascended the throne, and the officials admitted through this scientific examination will also completely become the emperor's arms, and they will have nothing to do with the first emperor.

"We are no longer responsible for the defense of the capital, so don't act rashly." Zhu Rong said, "I will send someone to protect this place secretly, you don't have to transfer troops, it's too conspicuous." ”

Kaijiang said: "Call me at any time if there is anything, my father mentioned that there must be remnants in the capital, and you can't take it lightly." ”

Zhu Rong asked, "What do you think is the remnant, Jin Dongsheng?" Still is...... The First Emperor? ”

Kaijiang frowned and said: "It's hard to say, and have you thought about it, the first emperor and the princes, are they all ambitious?" ”

They are the brothers with the most tacit understanding, and Zhu Rong bowed: "Empress Dowager Yang is by no means an idle person." ”

Kaijiang said: "On the one hand, my niece became the queen, and on the other hand, my own son Chan gave up the throne, and if it was me, I was afraid that it would be difficult to calm down." ”

Zhu Rong sighed heavily: "For the sake of the overall situation, should we advise the present and how to put an end to future troubles." ”

The subordinate brought the horses, took the reins, and said: "We don't need to say this, I will consider it now, I don't want to be the emperor's killer anymore, I said, do you want us to do it?" What's more, whether it is the crown prince or the fourth prince, we are not ordinary friends, and I can't bear it. ”

At this moment, it was late at night, the lights in the west garden of the Duke's Palace were gradually extinguished, and Pingli was about to fall asleep after washing, when he heard footsteps outside the door, and when he glanced through the window, he saw his mother going to his sister's house.

It was so late, he was afraid that something would happen to Huizhi, so he also came over to take a look, but saw that Hui'er had already fallen asleep, and her mother covered her daughter with a quilt, and when she turned around, she saw him.

"What's wrong with Hui'er?" Ping Li asked.

"It's okay, my mother is just not sure." As she spoke, the third lady threw her son out, followed him to the room, and asked him to lie down as well.

Pingli smiled: "Mother is still scared in her heart? ”

The third lady touched her son's cheek and said angrily: "Child with no heart, what are you doing when you say it?" ”

Pingli said: "In the future, my son will protect you, don't be afraid." ”

But the third lady remembered the attack on the lord, and said unwillingly: "Although there is nothing wrong with Ping Luo being the lord of the family, but my mother is unwilling, you are the grandson of the old lady, and he and he are separated by a layer of belly." ”

Pingli smiled: "Mother, do you think that my son and I are the material to be the master of the house?" ”

The third lady muttered: "That's not what I said, this matter is so urgent, can't you wait for me and your father to come back and discuss it?" ”

Pingli said: "This is also the result when I come back, mother, I really don't want to be in charge, in fact, the eldest brother and the third brother asked me, if I want to attack the lord, they will give it to me as soon as possible, but I don't want it." ”

"You stupid son...... the third lady said hurriedly, "you are the grandson of the old lady's relatives." ”

"Mother, so many things have happened, you still take these things so seriously, you look at your uncle's family, what is the end?" Pingli coaxed and persuaded, "Put it down, isn't it good for our family to be happy together?" ”

"Little thing that doesn't make a living." She sighed, remembered one more thing, and asked, "I heard people say that the little granddaughter of the Taiwei Mansion lives here these days, what happened?" ”
