Chapter 123: May the road ahead be smooth
If the eldest lady is Zhu Rong's biological mother, Fuyi Xing may be worried about this, and she will never marry a man like her father, which means that in the future, her husband will not let her be bullied by her mother-in-law.
"You don't have to worry about my day, you should worry about my mother." Fuyi said, "I asked her in the letter if she would like to come to the capital to have a look, but as soon as she asked, she said that she could not rest assured that she would not leave her father, let alone leave Kishu in the future." ”
Citron said, "The master can also open the academy to the capital and come with his wife." ”
Fuyi shook his head: "My father is in Kizhou, and he can learn and teach, but when he comes to the capital, he will be tired of being a man, what else can he teach?" ”
Citron understood, nodded and said: "No matter what, Madame and the lord are in love, and Madame has never complained that the old man does not help her, if you have to feel sorry for Madame, you will only add trouble to yourself." ”
Fuyi raised her eyes and looked around, when she first came, she was amazed by the size of the house and the spaciousness of the Qingqiu Pavilion.
But as time went by, I felt more and more that the crampedness of this pavilion was overwhelming.
But in the future, she will also need to live here for the rest of her life.
"It's the hearts and desires that cramp people's hearts, not the courtyards of these houses." Fu Yi muttered to himself.
"Mademoiselle has been saying things I don't understand lately." Citron smiled evilly, "But as long as the third prince can understand." ”
Fu Yi said angrily: "You don't have any pain in your body?" Flam your tongue again. ”
Citron said distressedly: "I am also injured on my body, I can't see it when I am wearing clothes, the eldest lady is really good enough, and I broke the face of the young lady." ”
Fu Yi touched the corners of his mouth, and he didn't feel anything anymore: "It's not in the way, fortunately, my mother can't see it, otherwise it should make her feel distressed." ”
Citron said: "In Miss's opinion, is it my old lady who is powerful, or the eldest lady who is powerful, which is more difficult to deal with?" ”
Fu Yi smiled: "Originally, your old lady didn't even deserve to carry shoes for the eldest lady, but now it seems that the eldest lady is not as good as her." ”
Just when the master and servant were discussing the eldest lady, the Yang family hurriedly entered the palace, and unfortunately was seen by Zhu Rong, who was patrolling, this time is neither early nor late, if it is not an urgent matter, the adoptive mother should not appear in the palace.
However, soon after, he received a message from Sister-in-law Li that the second lady wanted to marry her son Zhang Luo.
Zhu Rong was not sure if there was a connection between the two things for a while, and when it was time for the changing of the guard, he left the palace and went straight to Shangshu Mansion.
But Kaijiang was not at home, Mrs. Mu saw him and complained: "Recently, the emperor arranged an errand for him, he was not at home day and night, and I couldn't catch him, don't you deliberately not come back to avoid me telling him about family affairs?" ”
Zhu Rong said with a smile: "If this is the case, I will not come to the house to look for him, my aunt is too worried, and the emperor will reopen the territory, so he will be entrusted with an important task." ”
Unwilling to entangle with Mrs. Mu more, Zhu Rong casually found an excuse to get out, and then went to the Yamen of Guanglu Temple to find the second brother, but Ping Rui was not in office, he turned his heart, abandoned the horse, hid in the crowd on the street, and came to the house of the nurse in the frontier in a few places.
Sure enough, the second brother is here.
"I was looking for you, but when I met Kaijiang, and after bringing me here, he was busy." Pingrui asked, "Why are you here?" ”
I saw that the girl Rouyin brought tea and said gently: "The weather is getting hotter, but it is not yet a hot day, the third prince should not stand in the wind, go to the house to wipe the sweat." ”
She wore the same color as the rest of the family, blended in without a trace, led the two brothers into the door, put down the tea, and went to work with the nurse.
Zhu Rong looked at the window for a moment, then turned around and mentioned that the second lady went to marry her second brother Zhang Luo today.
Ping Rui was not surprised at all, he had already expected this result, drank tea and said, "I plan to resign and leave the capital with Rouyin." ”
Zhu Rong's expression was solemn, and he was speechless for a while.
Ping Rui said calmly: "These days, my father sees that I still watch closely, I will be honest and let him relax his vigilance." This is not the Min family is going to hold a birthday banquet, I plan to leave that day, I will do a good job in Guanglu Temple, for so many years, there are countless people coming and going in the officialdom, and no one will make a fuss. ”
Zhu Rong thought about it, and only said: "I have a few hundred taels of silver, and two silver tickets of one thousand taels, and the second brother will take them on the road." ”
Ping Rui sighed: "Your kid really has a lot of money, in the end he was raised by an old lady, I can't save money from my father and mother here, and I spent all the money I hid in the past to buy a house." So give me the money, and dispose of the house, and the money you have received will be yours. ”
Zhu Rong shook his head: "It's better to keep it, the second brother will always come back." ”
Pingrui put down the tea bowl: "Speaking of which, why don't you stop me and keep me?" ”
Zhu Rong said: "I don't have the courage of the second brother, otherwise I would like to go out, but I can't let go of my grandmother." Naturally, I'm not saying that the second brother is not filial, after all, you were not raised by your grandmother, we are different. ”
"Not only that, you are also the most precious son of the uncle, and it is a matter of time before you recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors." Pingrui said, "I'm afraid I can't see what will happen in the future, and I don't plan to return to the capital, but I beg you to take the throne, if my father and mother are still alive, you can treat them kindly, they are not heinous people, just look at Yunzhi's face." ”
He thought about it for a while, and said: "I'm not worried about the eldest brother, he is a person with a future and a future, but I'm sorry for him, put my father and mother on him, and after I leave, remember to compensate the eldest brother for me." ”
Zhu Rong shook his head: "I don't say it, I won't betray you, but I still betrayed my eldest brother, I don't know anything if you leave yours." ”
Pingrui smiled and said: "It makes sense, if you say it, you will become an accomplice, even if the eldest brother doesn't blame you, you will still feel sad." ”
Zhu Rong looked out the window: "What about the soft girl, can she be willing for you to give up everything for her?" ”
Ping Rui smiled: "This is my business, you don't have to worry about it, remember, I will leave on the day of the birthday banquet at the Min family." ”
Zhu Rong was reluctant in his heart: "I'll go back and prepare the silver and bring more on the road." ”
In Pingrui's eyes, he was also a little reluctant, and sighed lightly: "Actually, I don't complain that my father cares about my eldest brother and ignores me, I have lived a good life for more than 20 years, and my father and mother are worthy of me." But in the capital, in that family, I always feel that this is the end of my life, and I am not reconciled. It's not just for the sake of being with Rouyin that I chose to leave, Rong'er, when the second brother settles down and settles down, I will write to you and bring my younger siblings to see me in the future. ”
Zhu Rong sat down and said: "As soon as the second brother's matter came out, I don't know what happened in the family, before the family is peaceful, I don't want more people to know about us, and even Yunzhi is hiding it now." ”
Ping Rui smiled: "Let that girl know, and the whole capital will know." As he spoke, he hugged his fist to his younger brother guiltily, "Yunzhi's matter is also entrusted to you, she is a stupid girl, don't let her be bullied in the future." ”
On this day and night, Fuyi and Yunzhi had dinner next to the old lady, and on the way back to Qingqiu Pavilion, they met Zhu Rong, who returned late.
It happened to be Sister-in-law Li, so she and Citron looked at the road one after the other, so that the third prince could talk to Fuyi, but the lantern in Fuyi's hand illuminated his face, and he only saw a face full of sorrow.
"Something didn't go your way?" Fu Yi asked, "Have you received the news sent by Sister-in-law Li?" ”
Zhu Rong shook his head: "My second brother and I both know that he has returned to Dongyuan to see his second uncle and aunt." ”
Fu Yi asked: "Second cousin is willing to marry a wife?" ”
Zhu Rong shook his head: "Deal with it first, whether to marry or not is not even a bride yet?" ”
Listening to this tone, Fu Yi guessed that Zhu Rong still had something to say, and he was not even as happy as he was in the past to see himself.
Under the candlelight, I could see that there was sweat on his forehead, so I handed over my handkerchief and said, "Wipe the sweat, go to the old lady, and be happy." My aunt and grandmother followed this family, and I couldn't finish my heart, and I didn't eat well for dinner today. ”
Zhu Rong finally showed a little smile: "Grandma has you, I am very relieved." ”
Fu Yi sneered: "That can't push everything on me, not now, not in the future, the old lady's favorite thing to see is your eldest grandson." ”
Zhu Rong thought of the second brother, in order not to live "like this", he abandoned everything and took his beloved woman away from home, even if he felt guilty in his heart and pushed everything to the eldest brother or even Yunzhi, but guilt can't make up for anything, how to calculate the damage brought to the eldest brother and Yunzhi?
But Zhu Rong was unwilling to betray his second brother, and even supported him wholeheartedly, but he was inevitably entangled in his heart, and it was difficult to show his face when he saw the help.
"Go on, the old lady hasn't rested yet." Fu Yi handed the lantern to Zhu Rong, "Follow the road, you are absent-minded, don't stumble." ”
Zhu Rong finally couldn't help but say: "In a few days, the Prime Minister's Mansion will hold a birthday banquet." ”
Fu Yi said: "I know, today I will come to Zhang Luoshou with Yunzhi." ”
Zhu Rong sighed heavily: "The second brother will leave the capital with the girl Rouyin on that day." ”
Fu Yi was not surprised at all, but said with a smile: "May they have a smooth road ahead, that is the road I once wanted to take, but never dared to take." ”
