Chapter 2 Waiting to be Sent (2)
After Mu Lianzhu heard the news of Miyazawa Yu last night, she was overwhelmed with grief and suddenly fell ill. Miyazawa Kai stayed with Shoukang Palace for a night, and only then did he come out when the sky was slightly bright, ready to go back to his residence in the palace, and it was indeed time to think about how to deal with the current situation in the palace after taking a rest. The wind in the early morning of autumn was a little cold on his body, and his personal servant Ajie hurriedly stepped forward to tighten his cloak for Prince Yu, looking at the solemn expression that he hadn't seen on the prince's face for many years, although he didn't understand anything, but he also felt stuffy, and the master and servant went to the direction of the Huai Pavilion with the cool breeze in the palace forbidden.
Since Wen Xiuqi was urgently summoned to the palace in the middle of the night, this night was destined to be a sleepless night for Wen Fu. Wen Shijie and his wife Yin Tongyue, Wen Xiurong and his wife Qian Xiujin sat in the main hall and waited until Lao Mo came back with Wen Xiuqi, who was already covered with dewdrops. Wen Xiuqi, who came to the main hall, sat down without saying a word, and Wen Shijie asked, "The emperor wants you to go?" Wen Xiuqi nodded. Wen Shijie didn't speak again, and slowly closed his eyes. Wen Xiurong paced back and forth for a few steps, then stopped and said, "Father, I thought about it for a while, and it is indeed the most appropriate place to cultivate Qi. ”
"The emperor sent me 5,000 elite horsemen and 30,000 elite soldiers to accompany me, and set off at dawn. The eldest prince should not be. Wen Xiuqi repeated without any emotion, and the matter of releasing the Buddha had nothing to do with him. Wen Xiurong thought for a while, and then spoke: "Father, while the will has not yet been made, why don't I go into the palace and ask the emperor to let me go instead of Xiuqi." ”
Wen Shijie slowly opened his eyes, revealing a decisive light: "Xiu Qi can only win and not defeat when he goes, and the emperor has given him everything he can." If Xiu Rong enters the palace this time, he will put the Wen family in a place of disloyalty and injustice, and the monarch and the ministers will have to die, not to mention that this is an opportunity to make meritorious contributions? After a pause, he continued: "Your Majesty~ This is to roast the Wen family on the fire, you have just returned to Beijing for disaster relief, and now the queen is pregnant again." It is already the target of everyone, if Xiu Qi makes another meritorious service, our Wen family will soon be crowned with great merit. ”
After saying these words, Wen Shijie seemed to use all his strength, shook his head, turned around and pulled Yin Tongyue to the bedroom. How could Xiu Rong and Xiu Qi not understand this truth, and the emperor didn't know, but their Wen family couldn't avoid it. Wen Xiuqi said to Wen Xiurong as if he had made up his mind: "Brother, my father, mother, and eldest sister will be taken care of by you and your sister-in-law. For my brother, I must protect myself and return victorious, and the rest of the things can only be discussed in the long run. ”
Wen Xiurong wanted to say something, but he didn't speak, Qian Xiujin said softly to Wen Xiuqi: "Uncle, don't worry, I and your brother will take care of you at home, don't worry, there are no eyes on the battlefield, please take care of yourself, we all look forward to the safe return of my uncle." Wen Xiuqi nodded, and Wen Xiurong spoke for a long time: "Xiuqi, I will arrange ten dead soldiers to follow you at the entrance of each hall, and you will not notice their existence on weekdays." Until the moment of life and death, they will come out to desperately keep you safe, okay, the hour is not early, you are also ready to prepare, rest. ”
As soon as the sky was polished, Father-in-law An went to Wenfu with the holy decree, and Wen Shijie waited at the door with the whole family open. Gong An announced his decree and greeted Wen Shijie: "Lord Wen, the queen mother is pregnant for the first time, and her heart is always unsettled. The queen mother meant to make arrangements to see if she could let Lord Rong's wife enter the palace to chat with the queen mother, and it would be easy to solve the problem. ”
Wen Shijie arched his hand and said: "Naturally, the old man is not so thoughtful, or the queen mother has a heart, and in the past few days, she will let her daughter-in-law enter the palace to ask the queen mother for peace." Seeing that the errands were almost done, Xiao Anzi prepared to go back to the palace. Yin Tongyue forcibly held back her emotions and instructed the servants who followed Wen Xiuqi's side to be said to be very detailed, Wen Shijie pulled Wen Xiurong aside and asked, "Everything is arranged?" ”
"Yes, father, it was arranged for my son to go out of the city overnight last night. Tomorrow, I will let Xiujin enter the palace, and the queen must have gotten the news, but now that she is pregnant, many things can only focus on the overall situation. ”
Wen Shijie nodded and said: "The child conceived by the queen mother is particularly important to the Wen family, and there must be no mistakes. The poisoning of the queen's mother a while ago must not be repeated. Speaking of Wen Yanwan's poisoning, Wen Shijie's tone couldn't help but get a little worse. Wen Xiurong is also investigating this matter, although Wen Yanwan's poison has been cured, it is not a big deal, but there are many strange things about this poisoning. Thinking of this, Wen Xiurong was silent for a moment and replied: "Father, the poisoning of the queen mother this time is quite strange, unlike the handwriting of the Mu family, and it needs to be investigated carefully." ”
Wen Shijie had doubts about Wen Yanwan's poisoning, but now that he heard Xiu Rong say the same, he gave a few more instructions. When it was time to leave, Wen Xiuqi reorganized himself and prepared to go to the military department to count the number of people, and the Wen family, young and old, stood at the door and watched Wen Xiuqi and his party leave.
