Chapter 61: Grandmother!

On the fifth day of Chu Yi's return to Beijing, the Yongguo envoys met the Zhao bandits, and the news of the annihilation of the entire army spread from Zhao to the capital.

"How could they all be dead?" After Chu Yi learned the news, he couldn't help frowning, "Except for Xu Xiang, how did the others die?" ”

Pillow Xue said: "The corpses of the people of Zhao Guo found more than ten miles away from Jincheng, except for Xu Xiang, it is said that they were injured by a sword, and Xu Xiang's body was also found in the forest.

This incident happened in Zhaodi, and the monarch of Zhao State had personally written to Yongguo to apologize, and the city guard of Jinzhou also began to go out of the city to suppress bandits, saying that he would eliminate the bandits in the whole territory to pay tribute to the Marquis of Qingyuan. ”

Hearing this, Chu Yi's brows furrowed even deeper.

Originally, Xu Xiang died, died at the hands of bandits, and the cause of death was that he left the civil officials alone, and there were three of Xu Xiang's political enemies and civil officials in front of him, and they would help her think of a good reason, and Yan Guo could leave this matter aside.

But now that the envoys of Yongguo are all dead, it seems that they died at the hands of bandits, but in fact, the division will make Yan Guo's suspicion even greater.

"Your Highness, could it be that Geng Chuan ......" pillow snow road.

Chu Yi shook his head, Geng Chuan is Xiao Yan's person, and she knows Xiao Yan, there is revenge, those civil officials didn't hurt him, he won't kill him.

Besides, the current Xiao Yan may not have the ability to let Geng Chuan kill a team of people without leaving a trace.

If he really wants to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and provoke the relationship between Yan and Yong, why should he let Geng Chuan help him.

"You go and tell your father that we only killed Xu Xiang, I'm afraid that someone is making a hindrance in this matter and wants to profit from the fisherman." Chu Yi commanded.

"Yes."

After thinking about it, Chu Yi asked Xiao Nian to send a message to Zhou Ran, the governor of Luzhou, asking him to help carefully investigate the truth about the destruction of the Yongguo envoys, and it was best to see if he could find some clues on the corpse.

Murderers will always leave clues.

"Speaking of which, this palace promised Zhou Ran to prepare war horses for the Nanfu army, and also prepare cavalry...... Chu Yi muttered to himself, "Alas, this palace is really poor." ”

The news that the Yongguo envoy was gone did not cause any turmoil in Shangjing, after all, it was Zhao Di's matter, and Yongguo had no evidence and would not act rashly.

Within two days, the Queen Mother returned to Beijing, and the government and the opposition were shaken.

The queen mother's surname is Rong, although she is not the emperor's biological mother, but she is better than her biological mother.

Empress Dowager Rong's only son is the dead crown prince, that is, Chu Yi's second uncle Chu Fengchi.

She lost her monarchy because she advised Emperor Cheng not to build a large number of buildings, but Emperor Cheng also wanted her younger brother Rong Yin to lead his troops to fight, so he did not dare to abolish the queen easily.

Empress Dowager Rong has been a queen for more than 20 years, and treats all the sons under Emperor Cheng's knees equally, and she especially prefers the only granddaughter Chu Yi.

Four years ago, Emperor Cheng died, the crown prince Chu Fengchi died of illness, no queen, the four princes tried to usurp the throne, blatantly killed the five princes, at this moment, the queen mother stood up and chose to let Chu Tingxiao, the king of Chu, ascend the throne.

The king of Chu is known to be virtuous, with the help of the Gu family Cen family and the support of the eldest princess, after a battle for succession, her father successfully became the emperor and changed the country name to Chuping.

After Chu Tingxiao ascended the throne, the Queen Mother worshipped the Buddha in the Qianyuan Palace all the year round, and Chu Yi was often by her side when she was young, until three years ago, she said goodbye to the Queen Mother and returned to the palace to live in Weiyang Palace.

"Let's go, go with the main palace to visit my grandmother in the Yongshou Palace, and the main palace also has ...... I haven't seen my grandmother for almost a year. ”

When Chu Yi learned that the Queen Mother had returned to the palace, he immediately got up.

What's more, my grandmother in my previous life died before she died in the country, and she hadn't seen her in two lifetimes, and Chu Yi couldn't wait to visit the old man.

Moreover, the establishment of cavalry in the Nanfu Army still needs to be ...... Find grandmother.

Chu Yi rushed to Yongshou Palace, and the old palace maid Mingjing, who was next to the Queen Mother, came out to greet him in person.

"Aunt Spiegel!" Chu Yi shouted with a smile.

"The slave has seen the princess, I haven't seen her for a year, the princess has grown a lot taller, the more radiant and shining, the country is beautiful and fragrant." Mingjing was dressed in a jujube-colored palace dress, his hair was black and white, and the corners of his eyes were wrinkled with a smile, and he looked at Chu Yi kindly.

She is an old aunt who has been with the Queen Mother for more than 30 years, proficient in incense-making skills, and treats Chu Yi like her own granddaughter.

Chu Yi approached her and smelled a warm scent of sandalwood on her body.

"Yongning is taller than my aunt," she said, glancing at the hall and asking, "Grandmother, where is this?" ”

Ming Spiegel walked in front to lead the way, showing a helpless smile: "When I returned to the palace until now, Your Majesty, Prime Minister, and Doctor Feng have come to visit in waves, the princess will come in with the slave maid first, and Taiwei Rong is inside." ”

Chu Yi's eyes lit up, then covered the light under his eyes, followed the mirror around the screen of a landscape Bodhi in the inner hall, and sat on a rattan chair covered with thick soft cushions.

"This is prepared by the Queen Mother for the princess, and the princess will wait here first." Spiegel brought the tea and put it on the table, and then respectfully withdrew.

Chu Yi touched the cushion under him, knowing that this cushion must also be his grandmother's order.

She picked up a piece of hibiscus and dried plum from the plate and took a bite, it was her favorite sweet and sour.

"You shallow-minded little rabbit cub, you stand up for others and harm your own family, the mourning family heard in Qianyuan that you impeached the Gu family with Feng Jia!"

Outside the screen, my grandmother shouted angrily.

Her red lips hooked slightly, and she continued to listen to her grandmother "teach" her younger brother, Rong Taiwei, Rong Yin.

Rong Taiwei Rongma has been a horse all his life, and now he is the third grandfather of the official residence, and he is his third grandfather in terms of generational relationship.

It's just that Taiwei Rong is serious and cold, and he has never been as close to him as his maternal grandfather and uncle.

These three grandfathers are the same characters as the Great Yan Ding Sea God Needle, and they have a very high prestige in the army, and only Su Jingyuan, the general of Zhenbei who won a great victory before, can barely stand side by side with him, and Su Zhenyuan's qualifications are not as deep as the third grandfather.

Rong Yin is a cold white-bearded and white-haired old man in front of outsiders, and only in front of his grandmother is a little rabbit cub.

"Eldest sister, do you know that the Gu family is already too powerful, this year's new champion is a disciple of Gu Taifu, and the household department is controlled by Gu Chengqi, this Dayan's world is not the Gu family's world, but the surname Chu."

Taiwei Rong retorted earnestly, and his low voice was full of grievances.

Empress Dowager Rong snorted coldly and said, "The world is the world of the people of the world!" The Gu family is capable, the emperor trusts them, what are you involved with, the mourning family said a few words to you, are you still reasonable?

Also, the mourning family heard that you oppose the women's school in Mucheng, and the Dayan woman could have studied for the official and opened a school, why did you oppose it! ”

Taiwei Rong explained in a low voice: "Eldest sister, I'm not against it, I'm thinking that there is a women's school in Beijing, and the major families also have their own clan studies. ”

Empress Dowager Rong's face was covered with dark clouds, and she roared again: "That's the mourning family!" Mourning family rejoice! ”

Captain Yung: "......" miscalculated.

Ming Spiegel walked to the side of the Empress Dowager Rong: "Empress Dowager Qiyu, Princess Yongning is here." ”

Empress Dowager Rong raised her head suddenly, the expression on her face changed suddenly, and she was full of surprise: "Yi'er is here!" ”

Taiwei Rong, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but raise his head, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes. The princess came, and the eldest sister finally let him go.

Chu Yi walked out from behind the screen, and Empress Dowager Rong had already taken off a circle of Buddhist beads wrapped around her wrist and carefully hugged her into her arms.

"Our little Yongning, come and let grandmother stick it."

"The complexion is much better, the emperor can be regarded as having done a ...... Meddlesome. ”

The old man was obviously wearing a wide coat, but Chu Yi felt that her body was very thin.

She took off the Buddhist beads in advance, because she was afraid that she would be harmed.

After hugging her for a long time, Empress Dowager Rong finally let go of her.

Chu Yi stood next to her, letting her look at herself carefully, and looking at her herself.

The old man looked like he was only over half a hundred years old, wearing a dark satin knitted floral coat, wearing a lotus golden hairpin on his head, and a little silver thread mixed with his black hair, he was in good spirits, and a gentle fine line appeared in the corners of his eyes when he smiled.

Chu Yi couldn't help but raise his hand, touched the old man's soft hair, his eyes turned red all of a sudden, and said softly: "Grandmother, I miss you so much." ”

At this time, my grandmother was still healthy, but only four years, when she received the news of her eldest brother's death in battle, now this dotted silver has invaded the black hair overnight, and the head is full of silver frost, dazzling and sad.

"Don't cry, don't cry, Xiao Yongning is getting more and more beautiful, why are you still crying, the mourning family misses you too, that's why I went back to the palace, otherwise Qianyuan is so quiet and comfortable, and the emperor can't call the mourning family."

Empress Dowager Rong hurriedly comforted, took out a silk handkerchief, and her face was full of distress.

Chu Yi said: "Yongning didn't cry, Yongning was just too happy to see his grandmother." ”

"Grandmother is also happy," Empress Dowager Rong responded, then turned her head and looked gloomily at Rong Yin, who was still kneeling on the ground, "Such a cute little Yongning, you actually dare to oppose her in the court?" ”

Rong Yin: "......"

"The mourning family returned to Beijing this time and brought you a gift, which was newly written by Condensation, and the mourning family himself hasn't had time to read it." Empress Dowager Rong thought of something again and whispered.

Like condensation? How familiar is the name?

Without waiting for her to think about it, Spiegel laboriously held a thick stack of books and placed them on the desk in front of her.

"Princess, this is a hardcover version that can't be bought in the market."

- "The Merry King and the Pretty Nun", "Two or Three Things That Guanghan Palace Has to Say", "The Adventures of Doctor Wen", "Princess Order", ......

Chu Yi looked at the book cover with ink on a blue background, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he remembered.

When I was a child, I always pestered my grandmother to tell stories, but my grandmother was helpless and read all kinds of books to meet her granddaughter's requirements.

As for Ru Condensation, he is a very famous gentleman in Beijing in the past two years, with a mysterious identity and is good at writing lingering and sympathetic court love stories.

It's a pity that Mr. Ben should have died in his previous life when he lost his country, and her favorite book "Princess Order" didn't end until she died.

When she was terminally ill, she once joked with Xiao Yan's request, if Ruru is still alive, if "Princess Order" comes to an end, you must burn it to me.

Xiao Yan showed a gloomy expression, got angry for some reason, and walked away.

"It's still my grandmother who understands Yongning, in fact, I've already read these Yongning, but I can still learn about the new."

Chu Yi saw the "Princess Order" and thought that he had already read the follow-up in his previous life, so he blinked his eyes and showed a sly smile.

The Queen Mother asked, "Have you seen it?" Then tell the mourning family, how is the prince in the merry prince and the beautiful nun? ”

Chu Yi coughed, his face embarrassed: "This ...... Grandmother, do you really want to know. ”

"It's okay, the mourning family likes to know in advance."

"Dead."

“......”

"Nun, where's the nun?" The Queen Mother asked unwillingly.

"It's vulgar."

"Dr. Wen's ...... in the adventures of Dr. Wen"

"Dead too."

Empress Dowager Rong took a deep breath and controlled her thumping breath to prevent herself from fainting when she was old.

Don't be angry, it's all to blame on Mr. Ben, who wrote the book!

"If you condense this bastard, it's best not to let the mourning family know who he is!"

Next to him, Rong Yin could finally interject, and he said: "Eldest sister, how can you read this kind of book of side doors, and you are still pulling Princess Yongning together, the princess is still so young, isn't this teaching a bad princess." ”

The Queen Mother had nowhere to vent her heartache about being spoiled, and when she heard this, she slowly turned her head.

There was a fire burning in her eyes, and she finally found the object of her anger: "Spiegel, drag out this stupid brother of the mourning family and kill him." ”

Tolerance: ???
