Seeing someone say the name Zhao Zicheng with such an almost adoring look again, especially these people are not ordinary people, this made Xia Yuhua even more curious about this Zhao Zicheng, who had only heard of the name, but had never seen it, and even knew nothing else.

What kind of character is this, who can make his father, Mo Yang and Zheng Moran so relieved and appreciated at the same time? However, Xia Yuhua didn't have time to pay attention to what kind of amazing character Zhao Zicheng was, and he didn't say anything else, leaving behind Zheng Moran, who was satisfied and happy, and quickly left the Five Princes' Mansion.

When she returned home, as soon as she entered the door, she asked the housekeeper where her father was, and then went straight to the study. Seeing people, he didn't tremble much, and simply repeated what Zheng Moran said before to his father. In fact, it is nothing more than two points, one, the account book is from the hands of the five princes, there is absolutely no problem, and second, time is pressing, you have to act immediately!

And after Xia Dongqing learned everything, he did not hesitate at all, even if he was ready to act. In fact, for this day, he has already made all kinds of preparations, just waiting for the east wind to arrive, and he can act at any time.

He soon summoned the butler, told him to prepare the carriage now, and informed his wife that he would send Ruan, Cheng Xiao, and Ngoc Er away in a moment. After all, there is still a certain risk in this matter, so he has to take all measures in advance, even if there is any accident, it will not affect his family.

And Yuhua knew that his father had asked Uncle Huang to prepare a hidden house outside the capital in advance, and sending them away temporarily was also to avoid possible risks. But she was reluctant to leave the capital. I don't want my father to be left alone here to face everything. Although they may not be able to help much, from another point of view, it is naturally inappropriate for them all to leave like this.

"Daddy, you can let them send their mother and Cheng Xiao away in a while, and your daughter won't leave." She thought for a moment and explained directly: "My daughter knows what you're worried about, but if everyone in our family is gone." If you're the only one left, that's a little too compelling. Undoubtedly telling those people that we did it. In this way, it caused trouble for the Xia family. ”

"But if you don't go. Daddy can't let go of his heart, you're all gone, and I'm even more careless! Xia Dongqing knew that his daughter's reluctance to leave was not worried that he would be alone, and his daughter was touched by filial piety, but he didn't plan to change his mind.

"Daddy, have you ever considered what possibilities will arise after these things are handed over to the emperor?" Xia Yuhua was not in a hurry, and persuaded word by word: "Even if the emperor knows that these are true, it is impossible for him to order the execution of everyone connected with him so soon, but whenever those people have a chance to breathe, while seeking self-preservation, they will immediately track down who dealt with them." When the time comes. If our family is gone, and you are the only one left, isn't that clearly telling them the truth? So, how safe do you think it would be? ”

"But even if you don't go, if they pursue it. I still don't doubt it. Xia Dongqing didn't plan to give in, anyway, it was inevitable for him to take some risks alone, as long as his family was safe.

"No, of course it's different." Xia Yuhua immediately retorted: "It is a fact that her mother is pregnant, and at this time, it is extremely normal for her to take Cheng Xiao to live in her mother's house for a period of time because she misses her family. Moreover, my mother's house is far away from here. You've made arrangements in advance, so that their departure is reasonable and doesn't arouse suspicion at all. However, if I also leave the Xia family with me, then the nature of this matter will be completely different! So, this time, I can't leave! ”

"Yu'er, ...... you are obedient" Xia Dongqing did not deny that his daughter's words were reasonable, and if Yu'er stayed with him, it was not so eye-catching, but he was not at ease.

But before he finished speaking, he saw Xia Yuhua take it categorically and said, "Daddy, you don't have to say it anymore!" I've already decided on this matter, and you don't know my temperament, and if you don't leave, you won't leave. Even if you let someone knock me out and send me away, I'll still come back! ”

Seeing the unchangeable firmness on the face of the daughter in front of him, Xia Dongqing was silent for a while, but finally had to respond. Indeed, Yuhua's temperament is the most clear to him, whether it is before or after the transformation, but one thing has never changed, that is, as long as it is something that the child believes, it is difficult to make him change his mind.

"Okay, if you want to stay, stay, it's just that you have to pay attention to safety these days, if anything really happens, everything has to be arranged by Daddy, don't listen to Daddy like this!" Xia Dongqing had to make a concession, otherwise, it was really possible for this daughter to be as she said, even if she tried her best to send it away, it wouldn't take a while to find a way to come back by herself.

It's more reassuring to put it next to him like this, if there is really something wrong, fortunately, he has already thought about how to do it in case this girl doesn't leave. It is said that father and daughter are connected, which is really true, if it weren't for this, how could he even think about this back step back in advance!

Seeing that her father agreed to her request and no longer insisted that she leave with Ruan and Cheng Xiao, Xia Yuhua was very happy, and after saluting her father, she went to help Ruan clean up.

When I arrived at Ruan's house, I found that everything was almost ready, in fact, Ruan's was ready at any time under the reminder of her father early in the morning, although she never took the initiative to ask half a sentence, but she knew that what the master did had his reasons. So this kung fu, in fact, there is nothing to clean up, and I told the two maids to take those few burdens with them, and then go to the school to pick up Cheng Xiao and go.

"Mother, are you ready?" Seeing the orderly appearance of the house, Xia Yuhua couldn't help but sigh at his father's foresight, as well as Ruan's current calmness, if he hadn't been prepared early in the morning, how could he have been so calm.

Ruan nodded and said, "Hmm." It's pretty much ready in the morning, so it's just a matter of picking it up and seeing if there's anything missing. Besides, the important things have already been put away, even if you don't bring the next ones, it doesn't matter, your Uncle Huang has prepared everything early, but there is nothing to worry about. ”

Ruan's mentality is excellent, just as the old man told her a few days ago. No matter what happens in this family, the master will arrange everything, and their family will be safe. She believes in the master's ability, and believes that the master will take good care of himself for the sake of this family. Therefore, her responsibility now is to be wholeheartedly optimistic about Chengxiao and Yu'er. And take care of the flesh and blood in the abdomen, so that the old man has nothing to worry about.

Hearing Ruan's words, Xia Yuhua nodded, and then called Xiangxue to him and said: "Mother, Xiangxue is careful and the most intelligent, and she also knows some pharmacology, so during the time I was away, I asked her to follow you to take care of you, so that I can rest assured." ”

Xia Yuhua's words made Ruan Shi suddenly surprised, and she couldn't help but step forward and take Xia Yuhua's hand and asked with a puzzled expression, "Yu'er." What do you mean by that? Won't you come with us? ”

Ruan's was a little unconvinced, the old man said it well, let her take Cheng Xiao and Yu'er to leave together, but listening to Yuhua's current meaning, this child is not leaving.

"Yes, mother. I've just discussed with my dad that I'm not leaving, and I have to stay and have other things to do. Xia Yuhua nodded and said, "You and Cheng Xiao go first, and after this period of time, I will go with my father to pick you up and go home." Xia Yuhua didn't say too much to Ruan, after all, the more detailed these things were. It is inevitable that the more Ruan Shi worries and worries, the more relaxed it is, and it will be much better to say it with an indifferent attitude.

However, Ruan Shi was still a little uneasy, and turned to Xiangxue on the side and asked, "What your young lady said is true?" Did the lord agree? ”

It's not that he doesn't believe in Yuhua, but after all, this matter is related to Yu'er's stay and safety, although the master didn't explain what happened at the time, but since he wanted to let them all leave Beijing for a while, it was definitely not an ordinary thing. So how can she rest assured that Yu'er will stay?

Xiangxue saw that Mrs. was not at ease, so she nodded and replied truthfully: "Back to Mrs., Miss didn't lie to you, and Miss also mentioned to the master that she would let the slave and maid follow you to serve you during the days you left Beijing." ”

Seeing this, Ruan's still disagreed, she could imagine that Yuhua must be the girl who insisted on staying, and the master had always had no way to take Yuhua, so he said loudly: "Yu'er, although I don't know what is going to happen this time, but I think your father's previous plan must be good, you should leave with us temporarily, so that your father will not have too many worries." ”

"Mother, there are some things that you don't know very well, but don't worry, it's because I don't want my father to have too much trouble, so I have to stay, and you can rest assured, nothing will happen this time, and Daddy will temporarily place you and Chengxiao in a more secret place just for peace of mind, and for a foolproof plan. Don't think about anything, just recuperate in a different environment, and we'll pick you up in a short time. ”

Xia Yuhua said patiently, Ruan's is also for her own good, so she naturally understands.

Hearing Xia Yuhua's words, Ruan Shi thought about it but didn't say anything more, first, this child is now more mature and stable, and he is very witty and intelligent in everything, thinking that she may really have more important things to do when she stays, and it is better for the master. Second, this child's temperament has always been the same, especially what she thinks is right, and she is even more persistent in what she is doing, so she really doesn't have to let this child spend any more words to appease.

"In that case, then you should stay at home and be more careful about everything!" Ruan Shi patted Xia Yuhua's hand, and then said to the other girl who was following Yuhua: "Feng'er, Xiangxue is not here during this time, you have to take good care of Miss alone, you know?" ”

"Madam, please rest assured, Feng'er will definitely take good care of Miss." Feng'er nodded in reassurance, and then glanced at Xiangxue again, signaling to each other with her eyes, cheering each other up and doing their part, so that each other could rest assured.

It was not too early, and seeing that everything was in order, the Ruan family did not delay any longer, and prepared to leave with people.

Except for a few close people, other people in the house received the news early in the morning. thought that Ruan's was going back to his parents' house to recuperate, so they all happily came out to send their master together. It's natural for this pregnant woman to want to go back to her mother, so no one thinks anything is wrong.

Xia Dongqing and Xia Yuhua sent Ruan's into the carriage, and told the driver to slow down, and also explained that the two guards who were incarnated as attendants must take care of the safety of Ruan's mother and son. After a while, the carriage gradually left with Ruan Shi and the others.

Looking at his father's reluctant gaze, Xia Yuhua naturally understood his mood at the moment. took a step forward, hugged his father and whispered, "Daddy, don't worry, my mother and brother will come back after a while." ”

Except for reluctance. Naturally, I was more worried, although my father had arranged everything for the Ruan family, but after all, I was going far away. After all, it is this special and sensitive period outside, and Ruan's is pregnant again, how can he really let go of his mind completely?

"Daddy's okay!" Xia Dongqing retracted his gaze, looked at Xia Yuhua beside him with a comforting face, and said, "Okay, now Daddy has to go out to do something, it's cold outside, don't stay here all the time, hurry back to the house." ”

What does it mean to go out to do something, Xia Yuhua naturally knows that now is the time to race against time. The quicker they act, the better it will be for them, so there must be nothing to stand in the way of them.

"Daddy, don't worry, I'll stay at home, my daughter asked people to prepare food and drinks, and wait for you to come back." She smiled. Signaled that Xia Dongqing didn't have to worry about her, she could rest assured, now she is not a child anymore, and she knows everything.

Glancing at his daughter again, Xia Dongqing no longer hesitated, turned around and left with someone. And Xia Yuhua didn't stay outside the door for too long, and after his father left, he went back to the house with Feng'er first.

"Feng'er, go and call Songzi in." Xia Yuhua sat down and motioned for Feng'er to put down the work of making tea first, which would make her more important things to tell Songzi to do.

"Miss, will you let him in?" When Feng'er heard this, she kindly reminded: "Miss, this is your boudoir, it's still a little inconvenient for Songzi to come in, right?" Otherwise, if you tell the slave about something, the slave will help you convey it. ”

"It's okay, just go and call someone." Xia Yuhua didn't have the heart to take care of these things, the rules and things were already messy and useless things for her, not to mention that she had important things, where would she care about these forms.

Seeing this, Feng'er didn't want to say anything, so she had to answer, retreat first and find someone as instructed.

Songzi is easy to find, this person is extremely self-disciplined, every day is in a few fixed places, and it is not far from the house where the young lady lives, so it didn't take long for Feng'er to bring him over.

"My subordinates have seen Miss, I don't know what Miss commands?" It was the first time Songzi entered Xia Yuhua's room, and she was a little surprised in her heart, her eyes swept a few times, and no matter how she looked at it, she felt that it didn't look like a girl's boudoir, but it was similar to a study.

Of course, he had never entered this kind of boudoir before, but he had a sister, and the room before he got married was much different from the eldest lady's. However, all this didn't matter to him, that is, it was strange all of a sudden, and then he didn't think much about it, after all, the eldest lady was very different from the daughter of other people.

Xia Yuhua didn't avoid Feng'er, and directly explained to Songzi: "It's inconvenient for me to go out, you run for me, go to Wenxiang Teahouse to find their shopkeeper, and ask him to tell his boss that the things I buy don't need to be inspected." Go, go early and come back early, be careful. ”

"Yes!" After listening to Songzi, he directly received the order. Although he didn't understand the meaning of the young lady's words at all, for him, there was no need to know, just do it.

And Feng'er also thought that Miss's words were a little weird, when did they buy things from there? also mentioned the inspection or something, it's really confusing. But Feng'er also knew that Miss must have her reason for saying this, so she didn't ask anything, just do her own thing.

These days, it seems that the Xia family should have encountered some critical time again, otherwise the lord would not have deliberately let the lady and the young master leave Beijing first, although it was unanimously said to go back to her mother's house to visit relatives and recuperate, but Feng'er couldn't be clearer, it was definitely not the case, even Xiangxue was sent by the young lady to take care of the lady, so she should pay more attention to staying at home, take good care of the little family, and take good care of the family for the little family.

After Xia Yuhua brought the news to Mo Yang, there were no other excessive actions, at this time, it is better to be careful in everything, wait and see what happens, and wait for the wind to blow!

That night, Mo Yang received a message from Songzi, although Yuhua's words were quite subtle, but he naturally understood what this girl meant. Therefore, people quickly stopped checking the authenticity of the account books. He didn't know what happened to make Yuhua make such a decision, but he knew one thing that Yuhua was not suitable to show up more at this time, and it was not convenient to meet with him, so he would let Songzi talk.

After thinking about it slightly, it was estimated that Yuhua had already gotten some definite news, and it seemed that it would not be long before there would be big changes in the capital. He seemed to smell an unusual aura, and although this aura had nothing to do with him, he paid extra attention to it, because he knew in his heart that it might be related to the Xia family and Yuhua.

Mo Yang's guess was not wrong at all, ten days later, a big news came out of the capital, the famous Lu family was raided overnight, Lu Xiang was sent to the prison, and the rest of the Lu family were all sent to the side as slaves.

And soon, Lu Xiang's past actions were dug up one by one, and people talked about it one after another, and such a great crime was really deserved. Many people understand that the most important point of the Lu family's complete collapse is that Lu Xiang privately crowded a certain prince in an attempt to compete for the throne, and the evidence of the crime is like a mountain, and there is no trace of wrongdoing.

This point naturally touches the emperor's biggest bottom line, how can it be that the emperor doesn't get rid of this person and take this as a commandment?

Not only did the Lu family fall, Lu Xiang was about to be beheaded, but even the prince who was crowded in the Lu family's private was abandoned by the emperor and put under house arrest, and there was no future from now on!

After learning about these circumstances, Xia Yuhua finally couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but Xia Dongqing didn't send someone to pick up Ruan and Cheng Xiao so quickly. After discussing with Xia Yuhua, the two agreed that it would be better later.

"Daddy, the Lu family has finally collapsed this time, why do you look a little sad?" Xia Yuhua didn't quite understand, as soon as the Lu family fell, the Xia family would naturally not have so many troubles, and no one would worry about stumbling on them all day long. And Daddy is one step closer to getting everything back, isn't that a great thing?

When Xia Dongqing heard Xia Yuhua's words, he couldn't help but sigh slightly and said: "Although the Lu family is to blame, the Lu family does have a lot of bad conscience, but it is inevitable that many innocent people are implicated. ”

Xia Dongqing is still soft-hearted after all, if he goes to the battlefield, even if he kills more enemies, he will not be soft at all, let alone soft-hearted, because it is a battlefield, and life and death are normal. But at present, the fall of the Lu family is mixed with many factors of political struggle, those who should die and should be punished are obtained, but in the same way, more people have to become victims. This has been the case since ancient times, and this time the emperor did not kill all the Lu family, obviously it is already extraordinarily gracious, if it were not for Zhao Zicheng's intercession, I am afraid that the Lu family, regardless of men, women and children, regardless of the master and servant, the more than 100 people will also accompany Lu Xiang to the execution ground.

Xia Yuhua quickly understood her father's thoughts, and after being silent for a moment, she sighed secretly, but raised her eyes to look at her father and said: "Those people at least saved their lives, and I don't know how many families were ruined and miserable by the Lu family before, how can those innocent people be so miserable?" Since it is inevitable that someone will be implicated because of this, it can be regarded as a merit to take the lesser of the two, except for the Lu family, so that more people will no longer be harmed! ”
