Zhou Feng talked with the emperor late at night, because he retreated, so no one knew the content of their conversation, but many people couldn't sit still.

The emperor's favorite candidate for the crown prince is Zhou Feng, in recent days, Zhou Feng has been low-key, and the emperor rarely summons Zhou Feng alone, and the relationship with the queen has also cooled a lot, many people think that this is the best opportunity, and are ready to conspire to let the emperor give up Zhou Feng.

But this time in the night talk, the father and son did not reveal it to the outside world, and many people were speculating whether the emperor intended to appoint Zhou Feng as the crown prince, but the officials of the Second Prince's Party were very happy, and this was the result they wanted.

Zhou Feng didn't leave until dawn, and he didn't go to greet the queen.

Sending people to investigate the ambitions and layout of the Hirba tribe, as well as rescuing Song Yang, are all imminent matters, and they must race against time.

As for Zhou Jin's side, although the father and son didn't say it explicitly, they tacitly agreed not to mention it, lest Zhou Jin, who had been in a good mood recently, wash his face with tears again.

After arranging for the people to go to the dry city, Zhou Feng came to Ruan Honglian's courtyard, and according to the previous habit, he teased the imperial grandson for a while, and then asked Ruan Honglian to take the child to rest first, leaving Ruan Qinglian to speak.

"You stay here for a few days first, and then accompany your sister back to the General's Mansion, so you don't have to go back to the dry city." Zhou Feng said this for the sake of Ruan Qinglian's safety.

"I want to go back to Dry City." Ruan Qinglian shook her head and said: "My departure will definitely damage Xingchen's reputation, and only when I go back can I correct her name." ”

Zhou Feng pursed his lips and didn't speak, he couldn't say no to things related to Song Xingchen.

"I'm tired of tossing all the way, so I'll stay with my sister for another night, brother-in-law must not let my mother know that I am back, otherwise I will have to be arrested and go home." Ruan Qinglian pleaded with some pity.

"Okay." Zhou Feng responded, "I still have official business to deal with, before you leave tomorrow, I will arrange people to protect you, since no one knows that you are back in Beijing, then you must be secret when you leave." ”

"Thank you, brother-in-law." Ruan Qinglian got up and thanked her, it was good to have someone to protect her.

Although Ruan Qinglian is a female overlord in the capital, she has too little experience away from home, and the chance of traveling alone is even more zero.

When I came back, I was too hasty, and my subordinates followed him from afar, and I suffered a lot along the way.

In the Anfu, An Xuyan was playing against himself, but there were three-color chess pieces on the chessboard, and if you looked closely at the layout of the white chess pieces, it was a bit like the topographic map of the Great Zhou Kingdom.

Since Concubine An became pregnant, the status of the An family has risen again, and although An Xuyan is as low-key as ever, no one dares to despise it.

"Young master, Concubine An ordered someone to send the eldest lady back, and the eldest lady is clamoring to see the young master." The butler came in and bowed his head to report.

"Women, don't you have brains?" An Xuyan slapped on the chessboard mountain, and the chess pieces were instantly messy, "The eldest lady has been suspended by the royal family, so I will arrange for her to serve the old man in the future, and do her filial piety beside the old man." ”

"But the lord ...... there," the butler was a little worried.

"It's best if the old man can speak, it's been deployed for so long, but the last chips of the old man haven't arrived, I've been waiting too long." An Xuyan smiled indifferently, "Tell the eldest lady what I said, and let her serve the old man with all her heart, otherwise no matter how big the An family is, there will be no place to accommodate a daughter who does not even have the most basic filial piety." ”

Seeing that An Xuyan had already made a decision, the housekeeper could only take the order and leave.

There were no outsiders, and An Xuyan opened the mechanism on the chessboard, which contained a few secret letters, a few porcelain bottles, and a few maps, which should all be important things.

"Yi Zimaru, it's time to play a role, this brainless woman is relying on her pregnancy to wantonly ask for the emperor's grace, and all my deployments will be ruined by her." An Xuyan's voice was indifferent, but there was murderous intent in his eyes.

Poor Concubine An, relying on her pregnancy to relapse in the palace, thought that she could completely suppress the queen, and wanted to seek benefits for the An family, but she didn't know that her return to favor was just a move arranged by An Xuyan, and she never thought about letting her rise again.

Regardless of whether An Xuyan's final plan is successful or not, Concubine An is doomed to a dead end, and her presence will only make everyone feel uneasy.

In the farmhouse of Gushantun, Song Lu, who was playing with his children and grandchildren, suddenly felt a pain in his heart, and his face turned pale in an instant.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Seeing this, Song Yue hurriedly went to support Song Lu's family.

"My heart hurts, as if I'm being grabbed by something." Song Lu grabbed the placket on his chest and said, "Moon, I've been uneasy lately, could it be that something happened in the capital?" You told your mother the truth, you came back suddenly, did something happen? ”

"Mother, you think too much, if something really happens, even if I will send the children back, I will accompany my husband in the capital. Besides, there is something going on in the capital, can we be stable here? Mother, you don't know, our family now ordinary people don't dare to offend, if someone really wants to harm the Song family, then no one can escape this catastrophe, I have already arranged for you to escape. Song Yue lied without blinking.

Hearing this, Song Lu nodded, and seemed to feel that what Song Yue said was not wrong.

Even if the Song Lu clan does not understand politics, they also understand that the life of the Song family is tied to the second prince, as long as Zhou Feng does not fall, and the Song family does not commit treason or betrayal of Zhou Feng, there will be no great disaster.

"But I just don't have a solid heart in my heart, when your second brother and Xingchen had an accident before, it was also like this, but it was not as strong as this time." Song Lu frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly stood up and almost knocked down Song Yue, who was rubbing her chest.

"Mother, where are you going?" Song Yue took two steps back before standing firmly, and when she saw that Song Lu was leaving, she hurriedly shouted behind her.

"If the capital is okay, it must be your eldest brother who has something, I want to go to the dry city to have a look, or I don't worry." Song Lu said with a solemn expression.

"The eldest brother will be fine, he is the prefect of the dry city, and he has the largest official position in the territory of the dry city, and everyone will not have time to respect the eldest brother." Song Yue hurriedly reassured: "Besides, there will be a snow disaster in the winter of the dry city, and the eldest brother has to urge the people below to build the reservoir, doesn't it make the eldest brother embarrassed when the mother goes, does the eldest brother accompany the mother to fulfill his filial piety, or is it important to be busy with political achievements?" ”

Song Lushi hesitated for a moment, and quickly shook his head and said: "I can't care so much, I just want to go over and take a look, if your eldest brother is really fine, then I will come back after seeing him, and I won't delay him to do business." ”

"If my mother really wants to go, I have to pack my luggage first and discuss it with my father, right?" Song Yue was worried that Song Lu's would leave without hesitation, so she could only pull Song Lu's arm and coquettishly said: "Don't worry, mother, if your father doesn't agree with you to go, I will secretly accompany my mother to see the eldest brother, so it's okay." ”

"It's a good idea, and when the time comes, I'll tell your father that you can't be idle, and I'll watch you." Song Lushi immediately agreed, and unkindly threw the matter to his daughter, "Don't take it with you, it's a cold day, it's also very cold on the road, and it will be bad if you get caught in the cold." Let's go and get back quickly, it's only a month or two at most. ”

Song Yue could say anything other than nodding?

A month or two, this time is not a short time, will she be reluctant to let the children be good?

However, the mother spoke, Song Yue didn't dare to say no, otherwise she would wait to be squeezed by the old lady.

Song Yang, who was far away on the border of the dry city, did not know that because of his serious illness, Song Lu was uneasy, and decided to come to him.

After a fever for two days, Song Yangzhong woke up, although he would still burn for a while from time to time, but there was no danger to his life, but he became silent.

"Big brother doesn't have to put pressure on himself, big brother's leg will definitely recover, and now I know that pain is a good symptom." Although Yelang didn't know how to comfort people, he had an example of a secret guard who had been eliminated before, so he said to Song Yang: "Big brother should know that there is a person called Rebirth under Xingchen's hand, not only did he lose an arm at the beginning, but the bones on his body were almost broken, but the second brother-in-law's medicine still allowed him to walk normally, and he didn't lose all his kung fu." The eldest brother only broke his leg bones and had several fractures of his sternum, as long as he could take care of it with peace of mind, he would definitely be able to heal. ”

In the past few days, Yelang has also calmed down, and he thought of the situation of Rebirth and the others, when Song Xingchen quietly used spiritual spring water for those people, it was only then that their injured bones were closed, and Song Yang's situation may get better faster.

However, although Song Yang's injuries are not as serious as those of Rebirth, he has never practiced kung fu, and the perseverance to recover in the later stage is afraid that it is insufficient, so Yelang can't do anything about it.

"Really?" Song Yang finally saw a glimmer of hope, what he needed most at this time was encouragement, even if he only believed in Yelang's words, he could have the courage to face all this.

"If the eldest brother doesn't believe me, go and ask Xingchen, she is now sitting in the backyard of the eldest brother's mansion." Yelang said while helping Song Yang change the dressing, "I don't know how many days it will take for my eldest brother's leg to see the effect, but now it looks like the swelling has decreased a little, I think after the eldest brother is no longer feverish, the effect should be more significant, that is, the later rehabilitation is a test of perseverance, and it is very unbearable." ”

"I'm not afraid of hardship, as long as I can stand up, I can stand up to it!" Song Yang clenched his fists and said, "I am the son of the Song family, and I can't fall down no matter what." ”

"Hmm." Yelang nodded cooperatively and said: "If the eldest brother is still in good health, he should also write a note to the imperial court, the eldest brother should have discovered the secrets in the valley, and he also knew some secrets of the Hirba clan from that demon girl, right?" ”

"I'm tired of my sister-in-law preparing the four treasures of the study, I want to write a secret report to the imperial court." Song Yang nodded heavily, "I also want to trouble my sister-in-law to send someone to send a secret message to the capital, and I want to write another secret letter, asking my sister-in-law to take my token and the post of the second brother and go to the general's mansion guarding the city at the border pass." ”

Yelang nodded, then got up and went to prepare something.

As for what Song Yang would write, Yelang could guess clearly, but he wouldn't ask anything, so as not to embarrass Song Yang.
