Chapter 298: He was reluctant
The prince was reluctant, but had to return to the army, and then talked with Zhu Rong all the way about farming, talking about commerce and trade in various places, discussing the disasters of the four seasons, and the people of Zanxi on the border were ready to move.
Zhu Rong realized that although the crown prince had no competitive ambitions, he cared about the world and related to state affairs, and had the consciousness of being the East Palace, and was fully prepared to inherit the throne in the future, but his father did not give him the opportunity to show his skills, and his mother still protected him under thick wings.
This trip out, although there was a thrill, but the prince "returned with a full load", he kept talking about it, and he wanted to take the princess to see this great scenery in the future.
When Kaijiang heard this, he smiled at Zhu Rong and said: "This reminds me of your second brother, the prince is afraid that he also has this heart, but he can't get out." ”
Zhu Rong was troubled: "I don't know where he is, what kind of ability he is, he can hide his traces, he can't find it, and he doesn't send a letter to his family." ”
Kaijiang persuaded him: "The world is so big, if they travel all over the world and want to complete my territory, just a few months is far from enough, and when they choose the place they want to stay, they will naturally send you a letter." ”
"I hope so." I wish Rong to look at the mountains and rivers from afar, and I only hope that everything will go well for my brother outside.
Not to mention that escorting the prince back to Beijing, because the imperial court sent additional support to escort him, the mighty team, which could be easily provoked by extraordinary forces, arrived in the capital smoothly in the evening a day later.
Zhu Rong sent the prince into the palace, the prince got off the carriage and stopped under the palace gate, looked up at the high city wall, and a little loneliness passed in his eyes, but he restrained and hid it well.
"Your Highness, the minister will come back to greet you later." Zhu Rong hugged his fists, "The journey is hard, please rest for your highness." ”
The prince looked back at Zhu Rong and said with a smile: "Another day, I will order someone to return the silver to you, otherwise you will not be able to explain in front of your wife." ”
Zhu Rong said with a smile: "Neiko is a reasonable person. ”
The prince was not in a bad mood, patted Zhu Rong on the shoulder, and stepped into the palace gate and returned to the high wall.
Zhu Rong went to the main hall to repay the emperor, and met Min Yanshi, who came out of the errand, he was on the high stage, Zhu Rong stood at the bottom of the steps, and after looking at each other, there was silence for a while, but Yan Shi quickly walked down the steps and clenched his fists: "It's hard all the way." ”
Zhu Rong said lightly: "Congratulations to the eldest son." ”
Min Yanshi smiled slightly: "Tongxi, in the future, I should also call out the third brother." ”
Zhu Rong glanced at him, didn't say anything, and strode up the steps into the hall.
Min Yanshi breathed a sigh of relief, seeing Kaijiang coming from behind, he was obviously much more enthusiastic, he saw the back of Zhu Rong in front of him, and said with a smile: "Don't go to your heart, change it to me, change it to anyone, he is just as angry, his sister is going to marry, he is reluctant." Yanshi, congratulations! ”
Min Yanshi doesn't care about a word of congratulations, and he doesn't care about Zhu Rong's indifference, he will definitely take care of Yunzhi and live the life of an ordinary husband and wife, but he has no expectations for the present and the future.
Kaijiang said: "By the way, what about the attack on the prince, how is the capital?" ”
Min Yanshi had a little spirit at this time, and responded: "Someone is stirring up right and wrong, lest the world will not be chaotic, and the Prime Minister's Mansion is also involved. ”
Kaijiang kindly reminded: "Be careful, we brought things back, you have a preparation in your heart." ”
Min Yanshi understood, bowed, the two hurriedly said goodbye, he quickly withdrew from the imperial city, and went to report to his grandfather.
At this moment, in the Zhongguo Mansion, the news of Zhu Rong's safe return has been obtained, and when he retires from the court, the husband and wife will have to meet.
Fu Yi looked in the mirror for a long time, and repeatedly confirmed that there were no scars on his face, but he couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the abrasions on the palms of his hands again.
Citron smiled on the side: "What are you afraid of, my uncle will only feel sorry for you, can I still scold you?" ”
Fu Yi said angrily: "Don't talk much, when he turned around and asked you, you said you didn't know, didn't follow, did you hear?" ”
Citron said deliberately: "At that time, you said that Mrs. had no money, and she was so angry that in the end, you didn't dare to complain about your grievances, you said how pitiful our wife was at that time, she was bullied by her mother-in-law, and she was complained by her daughter." ”
Knowing that the young lady was going to be annoyed when she heard this, Citron said, picked up the tea tray and ran away neatly, and couldn't help her.
But soon a different person came in and said to Fuyi: "Madam, there are chickens and dogs jumping in Xinghuatang, Aunt Liu and Aunt Chu have suffered again, do you want to take a look?" ”
"What's wrong?" Fu Yi felt a chill in his heart, and it turned out that he had sent Mrs. Wang, but she couldn't stop her mother-in-law from losing her temper, and asked worriedly, "What did they do wrong again?" ”
The little maid sighed: "Who knows, there are people shouting and killing inside, saying that they heard the cry of the third girl." ”
Fuyi shouldn't have been in charge of Xinghuatang's affairs, but she was a daughter-in-law, and she couldn't ignore it, and now that Yingzhi was involved, she really couldn't sit still, she couldn't take care of the citron, and she was about to go out in a hurry.
But when he walked under the door, he stood abruptly again.
After thinking about it carefully, after the loss of Mother Wang, there are fewer people in Xinghua Hall who are fanning the flames, and the people under them also have their own eyes, so as not to force Aunt Liu and Yingzhi into a desperate situation.
The eldest lady made such a fuss, just to attract the attention of the eldest sister, and it was nothing more than for the sake of Wang's mother, to re-establish her authority for herself.
If you break through at this time, you will definitely not be able to solve anything, and you may be slapped by her again.
"Young lady?" The maid asked, "Shall we go again?" ”
"I'm not going." Fu Yi said, "You go, say that the three girls and the four girls are not doing their homework well today, and I want them to go back to Yuhengxuan to punish them." ”
The little maid was scared in her heart, and said tremblingly: "I'm afraid that the lady will be even more angry, and I want to ask why you don't go to find it yourself, how can the slave and maid answer?" ”
Fuyi knew these words to embarrass this girl, and wanted to wait for the citron to come from the tea room, and inadvertently saw a group of maidservants in the distance holding blooming chrysanthemums to the garden, and she saw the cuizhu in the team at a glance.
"Go and call the maid in the green rhombic dress." Fu Yi said, "Tell the steward, and I'll go back and give her an explanation." ”
The little maid hurriedly ran over, and not long after, Cuizhu came to Fuyi, bowed deeply and asked, "Young lady, do you have any orders?" ”
"Don't delay you in carrying the flowers and plants." Fu Yi smiled, "I will send someone to take your work to the top, and now you will go to Xinghua Hall for me." ”
Fu Yi beckoned, let Cuizhu step forward, and whispered a few commands.
"Don't worry, slave and maid will go." Cuizhu responded smartly, she was familiar with the things in Xinghua Hall, and she also understood the temper of the eldest lady, she was much bolder than an ordinary little maid, and turned around and left.
Fuyi sent a few people to work on Cuizhu's affairs, and asked the steward to talk to Yuhengxuan after he was done, and after settling down, she took the citron to Yuhengxuan, and soon after sitting down, Cuizhu really sent the two girls here.
"Sister-in-law." When Min Yi saw Fuyi, he threw himself into his sister-in-law's arms and cried, Fuyi put his arm around her, looked up at Yingzhi, the tears on his sister's face had not been wiped away, and she asked distressedly, "Have you been beaten?" ”
Yingzhi shook her head, but hid her hands behind her, and reached out to catch it, her palm didn't look like it was against the handboard, but she pulled Yingzhi's arm, and her sister shrank back in pain.
Fu Yi carefully helped his sister to sit down, rolled up her sleeves, and there were four or five swollen edges on it, and I don't know what it was, as if it was beaten down without a head.
Fuyi went to lift Minzhi's sleeves again, but fortunately, the fourth sister was not beaten.
"What's going on?" Fu Yi asked, "Who hit it?" ”
"Mother......" Toshizhi cried, "it was my mother who beat my sister." ”
The two most precious words in the world, for Yingzhi and Minzhi, are like demons and hells, they clearly have a living mother, but they have become masters and servants, and they can only call their aunts before and after.
And the "amazing" woman who was called her mother beat and scolded them at every turn, and had no love for them.
"My sister and I went to school to ask for peace, and when our mother was taking medicine, we waited on the sidelines." Minzhi sobbed and said, "Mother thought the decoction was too hot and asked if she was going to burn her, and my sister tasted it and said it wasn't hot, which made her angry." My aunt and my mother listened to the movement to save my sister, and then they ......"
Fuyi asked Cuizhu: "How is my aunt?" ”
Cuizhu shook her head, as if she didn't want to irritate the two girls.
"Mother Wang will not come back, no one in Xinghua Hall will dare to fan the flames and instigate the eldest lady to lose her temper in the future, you can rest assured." Fu Yi said gently, "In the future, when dealing with the eldest lady, you have to learn to be smarter, don't provoke her to be angry, can't we hide if we can't provoke her?" ”
Although Yun Zhi was worried about letting her sisters move to her house in the inner courtyard after she got married, it was not easy, it was really isolated from the eldest lady, and it was unseemly to spread it out, and let people gossip about the Duke's Palace.
And Yingzhi also said that she didn't want to leave Xinghuatang, unless she took Aunt Liu with her, otherwise even she wouldn't be there, and no one knew when her mother was killed.
Fu Yi ordered the citron to take care of the two girls, she took Cuizhu to the door, and Cuizhu said: "When the slave maid went, the eldest lady was crooked in the bedroom, the ladies knelt in the outhouse, and the aunts knelt in the courtyard. The slave listened to your words, and directly brought the two girls out, and sure enough, there was no Mother Wang, and the people there were easy to talk to, and no one said anything, pretending not to see it and letting us go. ”
Fu Yi said: "From today onwards, you will follow the eldest lady first, and after the eldest lady leaves home in the future, she will return to Qingqiu Pavilion." ”
