Chapter 206: Urgency in the Palace
Chu Xuanting had just discussed with the county order for a while, and was pulled back by Ye Shuyun, who rushed to hear the wind.
"Shu Yun, why are you up?"
"Hurry up and give me a rest, and leave anything to them in advance."
"Don't worry about me, I'm fine."
"Be obedient."
Chu Xuanting was pulled by her, looking reluctant on the surface, but in fact, there was a feeling of happiness in his heart. It's as if he has been married to Ye Shuyun for many years, the way of life of an old husband and wife. Moreover, he was very happy to see that Ye Shuyun cared about him so much, and coaxed him like a child.
In fact, the flood control has been completed, and there is no important work in the future, except for the reconstruction of houses after the disaster, as well as the establishment of temporary housing, and the recovery of relief food and money that have been swallowed by corrupt officials and corrupt officials. The first two tasks can be handed over to the county order, and this county order still has some ability, and it should not be difficult to do this. It's just this last item, this county order doesn't have such a big face, and he, the Prince of Chu, must come out.
But in the face of Ye Shuyun's all-weather surveillance at twelve o'clock, Chu Xuanting said that he was really powerless, and even Ye Shuyun was watching outside the door when he went to the thatched house, so that he had no way to work secretly. So, under the careful care of his dear princess, Chu Xuanting successfully made waste firewood for almost half a month, eating and drinking every day, and did not allow him to move, and he also raised his fat.
In fact, this kind of life is not bad for Chu Xuanting, he has not had such a leisurely time for a long time, but the people in this disaster area can't wait, they are still anxious to rely on the disaster relief funds of the imperial court to rebuild their homes, and rely on disaster relief food to maintain their daily livelihood. So this matter cannot be delayed any longer, it must be completed as soon as possible.
Shu Yun ...... Can you discuss something......
"What's wrong?"
"I feel like I've rested."
"Oh?"
Ye Shuyun looked at Prince Chu who was calling for wind and rain outside, and now that he had this pitiful appearance, he couldn't help but laugh out loud. She actually knew in her heart that Chu Xuanting was the next emperor of this country, and she couldn't trap him by her side forever, that was not for his good, but instead of breaking his wings and harming him. But she was really scared, afraid that something had gone wrong with him. On the day of the water draw, her heart was broken as she watched the bag of sand and stones smash on him, and she had only one belief, no matter what, to save his life.
Ye Shuyun looked at Chu Xuanting's handsome face, and couldn't help but reach out and touch it, caressing his eyebrows and eyes. If she could, she really wanted to hide Chu Xuanting. Ye Shuyun now wants to understand why there is a golden house to hide Jiaojiao, if he has Chu Xuanting, he is also worthy of building a golden house to hide.
"Okay, you can do whatever you want, but be careful in everything, and remember that I am always at home waiting for you to come back at any time."
"Okay."
Ye Shuyun has been trapped by his side for almost half a month, and during this time, she has lived a very satisfied life, and hopes that Chu Xuanting is not the prince of Chu who is envied by everyone, and is above 10,000 people under one person. She wished they were just an ordinary couple, arguing all day long over trivial things like firewood, rice, oil and salt, giving birth to a few more dolls, and raising them to adulthood. She weaves cloth at home, teaches her husband and children; He worked outside the home to earn money to support his family. They don't have to be very rich, just a few acres of thin fields are enough to eat. But all this is destined to be just her fantasy, people have to return to reality after all, he is the prince of Chu in this country, and she is the princess. They are destined not to live for themselves in this life, and they are burdened with the joys, sorrows and sorrows of this country.
Chu Xuanting understood Ye Shuyun's intentions, he would naturally protect himself well, so that he could have the ability to protect his beloved. He will seize everything he deserves and make her the most honorable woman in this dynasty. He will give Ye Shuyun everything he can to let her enjoy all the glory and wealth.
The county magistrate is really a reliable person, and the first two tasks have almost been completed, leaving only the disaster relief materials and money unimplemented. If this matter were to be handled by ordinary people, I am afraid it would be as difficult as ascending to the sky, but in the hands of Chu Xuanting, it would be different. Chu Xuanting only sent a letter signed by Prince Chu to the officials who handled along the way.
This frightened those officials so much that they couldn't eat or sleep, and they sent back all the things they were greedy for overnight. There were even some officials who added a sum of money in order to appease Chu Xuanting, and Chu Xuanting also gladly accepted it when he saw this. This group of corrupt officials and corrupt officials have not been less robbing the people on weekdays, and they are all very rich, not to mention that the money is for the people, so why not do it.
It's really not that these officials are cowardly and afraid, it's just that Chu Xuanting's reputation is too loud. After all, who in the world now doesn't know that Prince Chu is the next emperor, and his iron-blooded skills in the battle for succession are enough to make him famous among the ministers.
Seeing that the aftermath work has been completed one by one, the disaster relief is about to come to an end. Chu Xuanting was thinking about taking Ye Shuyun to play around in the neighborhood in a few days to make up for the two of them's mountain villa tour plan. Unexpectedly, bad news came from the palace at this time. And this news also pushed the two people who finally escaped into a bigger whirlpool.
"Lord Wang, someone outside asked to see him, saying that he was from the palace, and he had something important to tell him."
"From the palace? Let him in. ”
"Yes."
Chu Xuanting couldn't help but be a little confused, it stands to reason that the current situation in the palace has basically been decided, what big thing can happen?
"Lord Wang! Rajah! Big things are not good. ”
"Tell me something."
The little guy didn't speak for a long time, just looked left and right, Chu Xuanting understood what he meant, and let everyone else retreat. Chu Xuanting was even more confused now, what was going on, it was so close and the secrecy was so strong.
"Lord Wang, someone is plotting against the palace!"
"What? These daring dog thieves! What happened to my father and queen mother?"
"The emperor is now unconscious, the queen is imprisoned, and the imperial doctors are also imprisoned. Rajah! Go and save the emperor! ”
"Someone, hurry up and prepare, and return to the palace immediately."
In fact, Chu Xuanting guessed that it was this matter, after all, it was sent urgently from the palace, and it was still such a confidential news, there was something else besides the palace change, but he couldn't believe it. Those people are really wolf ambitions, and they will do anything for the throne. But this throne is placed there, and those who can live in it are not something that any cat or dog can sit on.
Chu Xuanting was as anxious as ants on a hot pot now, he didn't expect that this group of people would still be thieves and pay attention to his father. If he can't start a mutiny in the war, will he start a mutiny to force the palace? This is really a good time, while he is not in the palace, far water can't save the near fire. At this moment, he could only pray in his heart, hoping that this group of people would have a little conscience and not hurt his father and queen mother, otherwise, he would make them pay the price of life worse than death.
Ye Shuyun was resting in the house, and suddenly a maid came in, and after waking Ye Shuyun up, she began to clean up her things.
"What are you doing here?"
"Princess Qiqi, the prince ordered to return to the palace immediately, and ordered the slave maid to clean up the princess."
"Back to the palace? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"The slave and the maid don't know, the slave and the maid just do what they are told."
Ye Shuyun knew that it was pointless to ask a slave maid here, so he ordered her to put away her clothes or something, and then hurriedly ran to find Chu Xuanting.
Ye Shuyun knew that this matter was not so simple, how could he be in such a hurry to return to the palace, this news came too suddenly, and there was no sign at all. As the saying goes, when things go wrong, there must be demons, so something big must have happened that she didn't know about. Chu Xuanting actually hid it from her again, she must ask Chu Xuanting for clarification.
When she found Chu Xuanting, he was counting the number of people in the front yard. The uneasiness in Ye Shuyun's heart became more and more intense, she always felt that something big would happen these days, and now, especially seeing Chu Xuanting so nervous, her uneasiness could be regarded as a reason.
Chu Xuanting understood that on the way back to the palace, there must be a tough battle to be fought. Those people wouldn't want to see him go back unscathed, they hadn't achieved their goal yet, how could they tolerate Chu Xuanting to sabotage their plans. Therefore, there will definitely be many obstacles along the way, what they want to see is that Chu Xuanting died on the way back to the palace. In this way, they would be justified in succeeding to the throne, and the emperor would not have anything to do, after all, the man was already dead.
"Lord, what happened? Why do you suddenly want to go back to the palace?"
The moment Chu Xuanting saw Ye Shuyun, he understood that she had come to Xingshi to ask for the guilt, and Ye Shuyun was blaming him and hiding it from her. But this time it wasn't that Chu Xuanting deliberately didn't want her to know, but that this matter was really too sudden, and it made him lose his sense of proportion and mess up in an instant. His father and queen mother are in danger, and he is now cheering up and arranging. Chu Xuanting's heart was very chaotic, he was afraid of losing his loved ones, not to mention that this matter was caused by him, if he couldn't save his father and mother, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.
Chu Xuanting explained the matter to Ye Shuyun briefly after a few words, and then continued to arrange various affairs along the way. Ye Shuyun was also very surprised when she heard this, she was a little guilty now, he had such a big thing, and she not only couldn't do anything for him, but also caused him trouble. Ye Shuyun stopped squeaking, just silently went back to pack his things, and then came to the front yard and waited for his order.
Chu Xuanting handed over the follow-up water control work to the county order, and the county order could see that something big had happened, so he didn't say too much, just said to take care all the way. In order to save time, Ye Shuyun offered to ride with them, but Chu Xuanting resolutely objected, her body had never been very good, and she couldn't withstand the bumps along the way.
In the end, the two argued to no avail, and compromised with each other, Chu Xuanting and Ye Shuyun rode a horse. In this way, everyone embarked on the road back to the palace again, and this road is destined to be bloody and bloody, and it will not be so ordinary.
