Chapter 193: Sad news

The little boy ran over happily, "Grandpa, you've come to see me!" He threw himself into Chen Ju's arms and rubbed Chen Ju's old face with his little face. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Where's your father?" Chen Ju stroked his little head melon, with a look of pity.

"Daddy?" the little boy put his thumb in his mouth, a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Chen Ju saw that he didn't speak, and his heart gradually became heavy, could it be that he guessed correctly?

The little boy turned around and pointed to the room, "My mother is inside." ”

Chen Ju picked him up and walked over, the door was unlocked, pushed the door in, found that Xiaoru was not in the house, and heard a noise coming from the kitchen.

"One, you go outside first. Chen Ju put him down, and the little boy took the wooden sword and went outside to play again.

Chen Ju pushed open the kitchen door, Xiaoru was wearing filial piety clothes, and was burning paper with her back to the door. The paper money is placed in a basin, and there is as much as half a basin of paper money that has been burned to ashes.

"You loved money in life, but you didn't take ill-gotten gains. We've been having a hard time, and this time we have money, who knew you would leave first. Xiao Ru didn't notice Chen Ju behind her, she was immersed in grief and pain.

"I'll give you more money to burn, don't be bitter over there. Her voice choked, she put the rest of the paper money in the basin, tears streaming down her face, and she slumped on the ground.

"Xiaoru" Chen Ju called softly.

Xiaoru sat on the ground and turned around, the old and familiar face warmed her heart, but she cried even more. Holding Chen Ju's thighs, he howled and cried, "Master, Brother Jiang is gone." ”

Chen Ju sighed with a pain in his heart, and looked up at the dusty roof, full of grief.

In the past two days, Xiaoru has endured great pain and fear, but she still has to remain calm in front of the child. Cook as usual every day and put my son to sleep at night. Only after the child fell asleep, she hid in the kitchen alone and cried alone.

It's really not easy to be a parent.

Xiaoru cried for a long time until the tears ran out. Chen Jucai helped her up, "Is it a man with a jade mask?"

"Hmm" Thinking of the events of that night, she will never forget the jade-faced man for the rest of her life. Even if he wears a mask, as long as she sees his eyes, Xiao Ru can recognize this person.

That was the man who killed her husband, how could she forget!

"I should have thought he wouldn't die so easily. Chen Ju regretted it, when Zhu Yijun designed to harm the jade-faced person, he should have stopped it. But at that time, he thought that he was a bad guy anyway, and it would be a blessing for the world to die, who knew that Jiang Zhiyi would be affected.

"Master, you want to avenge Brother Jiang!" Xiao Ru pleaded, Jiang Corpse was Chen Ju's apprentice, and she called the same.

Chen Ju didn't answer directly, now his physical condition doesn't know how long he can last, and it seems that revenge for Jiang Corpse is an extravagant hope.

"Do you have any plans for the future?" asked Chen Ju

Xiaoru wiped away her tears and said: "As soon as Brother Jiang became loyal to the imperial court, he wanted one to become an official when he grew up. In any case, I will fulfill his will and raise one to adulthood. ”

Chen Ju knew that he couldn't stop Xiaoru, and said: "Let one abandon the military and follow the literature, as long as a civil official is dedicated to the people, he can get a good death." ”

Xiao Ru nodded and said, "I think the same as Master. ”

Chen Ju took out a jade plate from his sleeve and handed it to Xiao Ru, "I have something important to do today, you pack your luggage immediately, and leave with a quick one after dark, remember not to be seen by anyone." ”

Xiao Ru took the jade plate, "Master, this is?"

"You take this jade plaque to Xiangshan Cigan Nunnery to find the compassion master, and say that the Buddha let you go. She will take you in and see you when I am done. Chen Ju walked out of the house after explaining and saw one playing happily.

Xiao Ru said: "I didn't tell a brother Jiang about it. ”

Chen Ju nodded and sighed: "You can hide it from him for as long as you can." Greeting one, the little boy ran cheerfully.

"Would it be good to give a wooden sword to grandpa?" Chen Ju smiled kindly

"Oh no, my father gave it to me. The little boy replied earnestly.

Chen Ju felt a pain in his heart, but he didn't force it, turned around and said to Xiao Ru: "You go back and clean up quickly, the Cixin Master of Cigan Nunnery is too good, and it is very safe for you to live there." ”

"Thank you, Master. Xiao Ru's eyes were red.

"Don't thank me, it's me who didn't protect the corpse. Chen Ju walked straight to the horse, stroked the mane of the horse, his heart was extremely heavy, turned over the horse, and walked away.

One was holding a wooden sword in both hands, and he cherished it very much, "Mother, are we going to move?"

Xiaoru squatted down, looking at her son, she finally felt a little comforted, "Yes, I'll leave at night." ”

"But I don't want to go!" one cried with his head down.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Ru wiped away the child's tears.

"I miss Daddy. One threw herself into her mother's arms, and tears soaked Xiaoru's clothes.

This is blood thicker than water, although he didn't know that his father had an accident, but he always felt unhappy in his heart.

"You can't cry, kid, you know?" Xiaoru put her hands on her son's shoulders.

One raised his head and looked at his mother for some reason, "Mother-"

"Your nickname is one because your father wants you to be a man who stands up to the sky. A man sheds blood without tears. Xiao Ru said

"Hmm" I didn't know if I understood or not, but nodded effortfully.

"Mother, we moved, can Daddy still find us?"

"Your dad is out on a big business, and it will take a long time to come back. The place where we went to stay was arranged by him, don't worry, he will come to us as soon as he returns. ”

Parents should have told similar white lies.

Chen Ju was sad but could not stay long, and after learning the news that the jade-faced man was still alive, he was a little worried about the emperor's comfort. At that moment, he had to go to the Dingguo Mansion to pass on the emperor's message, and then return to the palace immediately.

About two hours later, he finally arrived at the Dingguo Mansion, Chen Ju was secretly out of the palace this time, and he must not be known. He settled his horse and entered through the back door of the Dingguo Mansion. There were people in the courtyard who were busy, Chen Ju's figure flashed, and no one noticed his arrival.

Xu Wenbi, the Duke of Dingguo, is already old, and his son has long since passed away. The next generation of hereditary titles is Xu Wenbi's grandson Xu Xi. At this time, Xu Xi was practicing swords in the courtyard, and suddenly felt that someone was standing behind him, and suddenly turned around and stabbed, but the sword in his hand was taken away by Chen Ju.

"Buddha!" Xu Xi hurriedly saluted when he saw Chen Ju. In the eyes of others, Chen Ju is just an old-fashioned eunuch, but the important ministers of the court know that the identity of this old eunuch is by no means simple. Zhu Yijun is suspicious by nature, how can someone who can serve by his side for many years not have some ability?

What's more, since Chen Ju took over the palm seal eunuch, Zhu Yijun withdrew all the guards around him. There are countless people who want to assassinate the emperor, and since Zhu Yijun dares to do so much, it shows that he has the bottom in his heart. The court and the central government have speculated that there is definitely a more powerful master around the emperor to protect him, could this person be Chen Ju?
