Chapter 358: The Second Prince Returns
Since he started looking for the Lan Ruo clan these days, Chu Fuyan has indeed not seen Shen Qing for a long time. Especially after Lin Qingwan fell ill.
Shen Qing, who was in the accommodation, heard that Chu Fuyan went to Lin Qingwan every day, so he was naturally angry, and his son didn't come to see him for so long. That's why in the past two days, someone who has been thinking about the Fa has called him over.
"Get out, get out of here!" I listened to Shen Qing keep smashing things in the room.
"Mother, who made you so angry?" As soon as he heard Chu Fuyan's voice, Shen Qing immediately turned around.
Seeing that Chu Fuyan finally came to her, Shen Qing couldn't be happy. In three or two steps, he ran in front of him. "Yan'er, you're finally here. I've been waiting for you for many days. ”
Chu Fuyan smiled. Immediately afterwards, he took Shen Qing and sat in the house. "It's been too busy lately. I don't have time to see you, I'm really sorry for my mother. ”
Shen Qingguaner. Listening to her son's sweet words, she didn't even feel bored.
The two exchanged pleasantries for a while. Chu Fuyan couldn't stay any longer, and turned his head to find Lin Qingwan to see how she was doing today.
Shen Qing saw his thoughts and was a little anxious. She grabbed Chu Fuyan's sleeve. "Yan'er, I have something to tell you. ”
Chu Fuyan frowned, he didn't want to be more entangled with Shen Qing than anything else. "I'll talk about that another day. ”
"In a few days, the second prince Lu Hao will come back from the frontier. As soon as Shen Qing's words came out, Chu Fuyan's action of stepping out paused.
The second prince, Lu Hao, has always been on the frontier to support the war all year round. Why did this suddenly come back?
Although Chu Fuyan was puzzled, he didn't stay long, and hurriedly went to Lin Qingwan's residence.
The bronze finch stood guard outside the door. Seeing Chu Fuyan coming, he hurriedly bowed down. It was late at night, and he waved his hand to signal the bronze finch not to make a sound, for fear of waking Lin Qingwan.
He quietly pushed open the door, and when he entered the house, he found that Lin Qingwan was not asleep, as if he was waiting for him.
"Wanwan, why haven't you slept yet? It's late at night, and the weather is cold, what if your body is even more serious?" Looking at Chu Fuyan, who was worried about him like this, Lin Qingwan suddenly laughed.
"It's that serious. Cardamom came to the house today and prescribed me a dose of medicine, and I got a lot better after drinking it. Although she said this, Lin Qingwan did not tell Chu Fuyan about Cardamom discussing the Lanruo clan with her.
Hearing her words that she was much better, Chu Fuyan's expression relaxed a little. He took two steps forward and sat down on the edge of the bed. Looking at Lin Qingwan's face, it was indeed a lot more ruddy than before.
"Or cardamom has a way. Those Jianghu Langzhong are still unreliable. That being said, it was because Cardamom knew her better that she was able to analyze where the symptoms were.
After looking at Lin Qingwan for a while, Chu Fuyan found that it was already the third watch. was about to let her go to sleep quickly, but suddenly remembered what Shen Qing said just now.
"I heard that the second prince Lu Hao is coming back. Chu Fuyan said this, but Lin Qingwan was not surprised.
Now that the imperial court is in turmoil, Emperor Dongjia is implementing a major plan, of course, it is necessary to recruit the prince who is far away in the frontier back to the capital to ensure the implementation of the plan.
"It seems that a storm is coming, and we need to be prepared for anything. ”
Then the two discussed for a while before Lin Qingwan fell asleep.
Two days later, the horse team of the second prince entered from the gate of the capital. Many people lined up on both sides to welcome them.
Because the two princes have made a lot of military exploits in the frontier, they are quite loved by the people. Now that he has returned from victory, the people are naturally very happy.
However, those who know him know that this second prince is not that simple. Although he is far away on the frontier, he has a huge army in his hands.
At the same time, it can also control the direction of the wind in the court. Lu Xian tried to recruit this second prince but was unsuccessful.
When the group was walking on the road in a beautiful manner, a few black shadows suddenly popped out of the crowd and went straight towards the second prince.
The marching army was shocked, but they didn't expect that someone would dare to assassinate the second prince at such an upright time.
Those few men in black are extraordinary. All of them were armed with weapons, and it was clear that they were here to assassinate. Fortunately, a general next to him reacted quickly and quickly drew his knife.
"Escort! Said that these people ran in front of Lu Hao and began to resist the black-clothed people. But the man in black is not an idle person.
After a few moves, the man in black beat all the generals around Lu Hao to his stomach. Lu Hao was a little angry. Flew down from his horse and grabbed a few men in black.
"Say, who sent you?" Lu Haojiang and a few of them took it down, and when they were about to interrogate, a few men in black bit their tongues and committed suicide.
Nothing was written. Lu Hao's expression was a little lonely, but then he asked a few of his subordinates to set up these black-clothed people and said to the people.
"You saw it too. But if anyone rebels against my Dongjia Empire, this is the end. We will not tolerate the existence of such disorderly people. ”
When the people saw this scene, they quickly applauded. After all, this is a testimony of Lu Hao's ability. But in the end, it is a pity that the murderer behind the scenes was not found.
This is what the people think. But they didn't know that this scene was completely directed and acted by Lu Hao.
He had arranged for the men in black before he returned. Let them assassinate them during the procession, and they will deliberately catch them.
In order to let the people better see what Lu Haowei has done in the country, let the people admire him more, so as to win the hearts of the people.
This matter soon spread in the capital. Everyone praised the second prince, Lu Hao, for his compassion for the people. But Lin Qingwan and Chu Fuyan knew that this was just a play for people.
Fortunately, the remaining month was calm, which was enough for Lin Qingwan to recuperate. No one came looking for trouble.
And Emperor Dongjia is because of the return of the second prince Lu Hao. Whether it was the elixir of human flesh or the search for the Lanruo clan, it was delayed.
But what everyone didn't expect was that a month later, news suddenly came from the palace that the second prince Lu Hao was going to marry a concubine.
This news was a bolt from the blue. Not to mention what kind of people these two imperial concubines are, just talk about Lu Hao's reputation. Once you marry a concubine, you will gain a foothold in the court.
And the ministers in the court will definitely respect the second prince even more.
Lin Qingwan is also very strange, the second prince has been staying in the frontier all the year round, and now he is going to marry a concubine as soon as he returns to Beijing, which means that this concubine must be the second
The prince has already decided on a candidate.
Since the marriage contract of the second prince came out suddenly, the court began to get busy, after all, this concubine ceremony was about to be held.
The emperor naturally didn't mind, because it was natural for the second prince to come back to invite merit after making military exploits, but the imperial concubine herself had never seen the emperor and was still a little wary.
For a while, the palace was full of discussions about the second prince's marriage to a concubine, and even the people began to discuss whose pearl this lucky imperial concubine was.
As a big family member of his own family, Chu Mansion naturally received an invitation to marry a concubine. Chu Fuyan, who got the invitation, hurriedly came to Lin Qingwan's house.
"Wanwan, an invitation has been sent from the palace. Pushing the door in, he hurriedly told Lin Qingwan the news.
In fact, the two of them had already calculated that the second prince would definitely send the invitation to the mansion, so that the people of the Chu Mansion had to dress up.
"This day has finally come, and I don't know what the second prince's plan is, and now we can only go to the appointment. ”
Lin Qingwan was talking, and suddenly remembered that there was another person in the house who had disappeared. And this kind of canonical house is indispensable.
"Lin Yanruo has now disappeared from the mansion, and we can only say that she is temporarily seriously ill and cannot participate in the ceremony. ”
Chu Fuyan nodded. Indeed, if this young lady disappeared from the mansion out of thin air, the world doesn't know what to think.
"This trip to marry a concubine must be an empty plan. At that time, you should pay more attention to your own safety, I may not be able to take care of you. I can only let May secretly protect you. ”
The two discussed the details of the concubine ceremony. Then it was time to rest. The day of the concubine ceremony was set three days later.
Three days later, the whole country celebrated, and the people walked on the road to celebrate the second prince's marriage to the concubine. Everyone was laughing and laughing.
But the palace is a different story. Everyone has their own thoughts, and they don't know what will happen to this concubine ceremony. And who is this sudden imperial concubine.
All the puzzles will be revealed today.
Because the second prince chose the princess, it was very grand, and there were many people who came. All the royal relatives, royal officials and nobles came.
Chu Fuyan took Lin Qingwan and Chu Ziyi took Wu Rina to the palace. The people went to the main hall.
Today, Chu Fuyan was wearing a purple robe, and Lin Qingwan was wearing a lighter dress. She never wanted to wear it too
Garish.
As soon as the handsome man and the beautiful woman appeared, they attracted everyone's attention. Many young ladies from the family saw Chu Fuyan cast an envious look.
But when they thought about it, this Chu Fuyan had already married a three-room wife. The only thing left in the Chu Mansion is Chu Ziyi, who has just married a lady.
So all the young ladies turned their attention to Chu Ziyi's position again.
Those people didn't care, maybe they were used to such a gaze. So he sat down in his seat very calmly.
After everyone took their seats, the second prince appeared outside the main hall. He was dressed in a red robe, and he looked festive indeed.
After a while, Emperor Dongjia and Empress Yue appeared on the throne. Two people were seated. The people who married the concubine ceremony were also gathered.
Emperor Dongjia was very happy, after all, he felt that the second prince had finally opened his mind and was willing to marry the imperial concubine. With a wave of his hand, he gave an order with pleasure.
"Today's concubine ceremony of the second prince Lu Hao will start immediately!"
After the emperor finished the order, he only heard a loud sound of gongs and drums outside the main hall. Then came the shrill voice of the eunuch.
This is where the concubine ceremony begins. ”
