Chapter 89
In the study of Yuefu, the candlelight flickered on the window lattice, and a man's whispered conversation came from inside.
"Is there any movement at King Rui?" Yue Xun will repeat Yue Crepe's words again.
Yue Crepe nodded and replied: "A few days ago, the regent asked me to wait for you to come back and inform you of the news in time." ”
Huo Yan should have sensed something to say this, Yue Xun lowered his eyes and thought twice.
"Now the army of King Rui is stationed not far from the capital, if he really has a rebellious heart, he needs to find evidence as soon as possible to punish him according to the law, otherwise if he goes out of the city to join the army, I am afraid that this battle will be killed and wounded, King Rui () The art of war is first-class, maybe the throne will change hands." Yue Jiang said his opinion.
Yue Crepe made a difficulty, "If you want to catch King Rui's handle, you need to get close to him to find an upright evidence, how can it be so easy, King Rui is deep and suspicious, not to mention our Yue family, even if it is specially looking for someone to disguise and blend into the palace." ”
King Rui is indeed suspicious, he is ruthless, he would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let go of one, but as long as he is a human being, he has a weakness, and the weakness of King Rui happens to be his only daughter - Zhao Xuancheng. So this matter is easy to do, and it is difficult to say that it is easy to do, if you start from Zhao Xuancheng, it is inevitable that you will have to play with her on the spot, so Rou Yun will inevitably misunderstand; But if you don't start with her, when the time is ripe, King Rui escapes and commands the army to sweep the capital, then not only Rou Yun, but the entire Yue family will be in danger.
Yue Xun weighed the pros and cons and slowly spoke: "I'll solve this matter, father, eldest brother, don't act rashly, just order the guards to protect Yue Fu." ”
"......"
Yue Xuan just wanted to ask what the method was, but Yue Jiang grabbed his clothes and stopped, "I want to set the method, this matter is complicated, don't ask more." ”
By the time Yue Xun returned to the house after the discussion, it was already late.
"My husband is back." Rou Yun stepped forward to untie Yue Xun's coat and brushed off the frost on her body.
"Have you dinner?" Yue Xun took her into his arms and kissed her forehead lightly.
The two have been married for a few days, but being treated like this, Rou Yun still can't help but be a little shy.
Yue Xun saw the three teacups on the table and said, "Grandmother Fang, have they been here?" ”
Rou Yun nodded: "Yes, I sat for a while, and I just left." ”
Yue Xun sat on the stool and picked up Rou Yun and let her sit on his lap, "What do you say, you've been talking about it for so long." ”
Dong Solstice entered the house and saw that the two were so intimate, so he quickly packed up his teacup and quickly retreated.
Rou Yun's face turned red and she wanted to struggle down, but she was helplessly hugged by him, "I didn't say anything important, I just asked, what we saw and heard on the way to the Xiongnu, and what ......"
"Also, I asked you if you were pregnant." Yue Xun asked tentatively, seeing that Rou Yun did not refute, he was even more sure, he hugged Rou Yun tighter, and looked at her, "It's all bad for my husband, I have experienced a lot of things along the way, and I have only had a few warm encounters with my wife, and then I must work harder." ”
Rou Yun clenched her fists and pounded his chest, "Not serious." Then she looked at her stomach in disbelief, and her voice revealed a little grievance: "It's been so long, why haven't you moved, or you can take a concubine..." Whining. ”
Before she could finish speaking, Yue Xun blocked her lips, as if to reproach her for what she said, and finally pulled away when Rou Yun couldn't bear it.
"This matter is fate, if it is destined to be like this, then I would rather have no heirs, and it is impossible for me to have anything to do with a woman other than Jiang Rouyun, and I think all this is because I don't work hard enough for my husband, so madam, please bear it more at night." Then Yue Xun picked her up and walked towards the bed.
Rou Yun didn't refuse, and consciously put her arms around his neck.
A good night's sleep.
By the time Rou Yun got up the next day with a sore body, Yue Xun had already entered the palace early to report on his work. At the same time, Empress Dowager Xue in the palace sent a decree to invite Mrs. Yue into the palace.
Rou Yun had to dress up neatly and enter the palace with a sore body.
In the palace of the Empress Dowager Xue, the Empress Dowager was already looking forward to it at the palace gate, and when she saw Rou Yun approaching, she excitedly stepped forward to welcome people in, first caring for the journey, and then going straight to the point, asking about Duan Shu's recent situation.
Rou Yun didn't dare to delay, took out the princess's family letter and handed it to the Empress Dowager Xue, who took it and looked at it carefully, it seemed that she was not shocked, but in fact, her red eyes had betrayed her.
"The princess is all right, she is helping with housekeeping in the Huns right now, the new Ren Shan is an excellent person, she will not embarrass the princess, I think that in another year and a half, the queen mother will be able to reunite with the princess." Rou Yun comforted her with a clean handkerchief.
Empress Dowager Xue took it, wiped away her tears, and nodded with satisfaction: "Shu'er said in the letter, thanks to you and General Yue, she can have this opportunity to return to the Li Kingdom, and the mourning family really doesn't know how to thank you." ”
Rou Yun smiled and said softly: "I am close friends with the princess, how to talk about thanks, this is really out-of-the-box." ”
Empress Dowager Xue smiled and greeted a few words, and then asked softly: "There is one thing, I hesitated for a long time, I still want to ask Mrs. Yue, I don't know if Shu'er still has a male and female meaning for General Jin?" ”
"Mother?" Rou Yun was puzzled: "General Jin has a fiancée in the capital, and his fiancée is his childhood sweetheart, and her father is still General Jin's mentor, what do you mean by asking?" ”
Empress Dowager Xue sighed deeply: "Alas, Mrs. Yue doesn't know that General Jin's fiancée left a few days ago. ”
"Gone!?" Rou Yun screamed in surprise, realized that something was wrong, and lowered her voice and asked, "General Jin has a word first, and he married his fiancée when he comes back, how could this happen?" ”
Empress Dowager Xue sighed again: "When the girl set up a stall in Beijing, she was favored by the bullies, and then she was harassed several times, and then took advantage of one day, when the girl was walking alone at night, she was captured in the corner, she was loyal and unyielding, and she would rather die than obey, and she ......."
Rou Yun regretted in her heart, such a beautiful girl's family is so... Her husband has returned to Beijing, but the two can never meet again.
"How's that bully? Can you get it back to the government? Rou Yun continued to ask.
People cannot be resurrected after death, and now is the time to avenge their grievances.
Empress Dowager Xue shook her head helplessly: "That person is Yu Jieyu's younger brother, and the government is afraid of the power in the palace, so no one dares to touch this nail." ”
"Yu Jieyu? But the original Yu Concubine Niangniang? "The concubine surnamed Yu seems to be only one person in Rou Yun's impression.
"Yes, it's the original Yu Concubine." Empress Dowager Xue personally poured the tea and explained: "Concubine Yu was diagnosed as pregnant by the imperial doctor not long after you left the capital, and the emperor had no heirs, and the Empress Dowager Wen was overjoyed, so she was directly promoted two levels to become Jieyu." ”
Even so, it is not to protect the sinners. Isn't human life worth mentioning in the face of power?
Rou Yun's heart was cold, when did power become the capital to protect sinners.
"Then no one dares to take care of this?"
"At the beginning, this matter was suppressed by the Yu family, yesterday after the Jin general learned of the incident, he entered the palace overnight to sue the emperor, but there was no reaction in the palace, or the regent took him back to the house, I heard that the regent arrested the prisoner overnight, but early in the morning, Yu Jieyu knelt in the heart palace by being pregnant and begged bitterly, the Empress Dowager Wen was worried that there was something wrong with the imperial heir in her belly, and quickly ordered the regent to release the person." When Empress Dowager Xue talked about Empress Dowager Wen, she still spoke in a disdainful tone, after all, the two have been rivals for many years.
In this way, General Jin was too pitiful, and Rou Yun thought of the man who mentioned his fiancée with a happy and shy face, and felt a pang of regret in his heart.
"Look at me, saying so much scares Mrs. Yue." Empress Dowager Xue saw that she was stunned and hurriedly opened the topic, "Right now, the plum blossoms in the imperial garden are blooming just right, when Mrs. Yue leaves the palace, let's fold a few branches and go home." ”
Since Empress Dowager Xue said this, Rou Yun hurriedly got up to thank her, and left Zhengde Palace after a few idle words.
"Does Niangniang want to match General Jin and the princess?" The personal palace maid took the stove and put it on Empress Dowager Xue's lap.
Empress Dowager Xue thrashed her frozen legs, "Yes, there is this idea, but it still depends on the meaning of the two, if Shu'er comes back, I will definitely not wronged her again, but the matter of General Jin is really a pity, a pity." ”
"There is a certainty in everything." The palace maid comforted.
"Ugh." Empress Dowager Xue sighed deeply and looked at the snow scene outside.
In the cold winter, the snow is falling, and everything in the imperial garden is covered with a thin layer of white, but no matter how much the snow covers it, it can't stop the stamens of the plum.
Rou Yun held a paper umbrella in one hand, and folded the plum branches with the other hand, the snow on the top trembled slightly, and they all fell to the ground.
She put away the paper umbrella, clenched the heat with both hands, and enjoyed the plum blossoms on a snowy day in winter, which was quite emotional.
At this moment, a woman's voice came from not far away, getting closer and closer, as if it was mixed with a man's voice.
"The emperor is coming, come on, you see how good this plum blossom is." Yu Jieyu walked in front with a slightly bulging belly, and the palace maids hurriedly held umbrellas to catch up.
Huo Ze looked at the woman not only indifferently, but also said strangely: "The weather is cold, you are pregnant, it is better to go back to the palace to rest, so as not to make any mistakes." ”
Yu Jieyu was aggrieved at first, and then thought that she was pregnant with a dragon heir, and she didn't care about his words at all, she smiled coquettishly: "How can the concubine be so delicate, but there is a pavilion in front, the emperor will accompany the concubine to sit down." ”
Huo Ze was also a little tired, so he did not refuse.
Pavilion? Rou Yun was shocked, she was the only pavilion nearby, so to speak....... She stood up, picked up Lamei and wanted to leave, but it was too late, Huo Ze and the others had already come to the pavilion.
"The courtiers see the emperor, see Yu Jieyu."
Seeing that she couldn't hide, Rou Yun could only salute obediently and abide by the palace rules.
Huo Ze was originally in a mediocre mood, but the moment he saw her, his eyes seemed to be shining, he heard that she had returned to Beijing yesterday, and he missed it very much, but because of the affection of the monarch and the minister, he could only silently suppress this thought, thinking that he would find an opportunity to hold a palace banquet to invite her into the palace in the future, but he didn't expect to meet her here today.
Yu Jieyu was even more shocked, looking at her more and more moving appearance, she was even more jealous in her heart, and then looking at Huo Ze's completely different attitude towards the two of them, Yu Jieyu was even more uncomfortable.
"Mrs. Yue, get up." Huo Ze looked at the plum in her arms, and the contrast between the two made her look like she had become a plum.
"Doesn't Mrs. Yue know that the flowers in this imperial garden can't be picked casually?" Yu Jieyu looked at her and was deliberately embarrassed.
