Chapter 61 Grandma!

On the fifth day after Chu Yi returned to the capital, the envoys of the Yong Kingdom met with the bandits from Zhao Di, and the news that the entire army had been wiped out spread from Zhao State to the capital.

"How did they all die?" After Chu Yi heard the news, he couldn't help frowning, "Except Xu Xiang, how did everyone else die?"

Zhenxue said: "The people of Zhao country found their bodies more than ten miles away from Jincheng, none of them are bad, it is said that they were injured by swords, and Xu Xiang's body was also found in the woods.

This incident happened in Zhaodi, and the monarch of the state of Zhao had personally written a letter of apology to the state of Yong. "

Hearing this, Chu Yi frowned even more deeply.

Originally, Xu Xiang died at the hands of the bandits. The cause of death was to leave the civil servants alone. With the three political enemies of Xu Xiang standing in front of them, they would help her think of a good reason. .

But now that all the envoys of the Yong Kingdom are dead, it seems that they died at the hands of bandits, but in fact, it will make the state of Yan even more suspicious.

"Your Highness, could it be that Geng Chuan?" Zhenxue said.

Chu Yi shook his head, Geng Chuan belonged to Xiao Yan, and she knew Xiao Yan and wanted to take revenge. Those civil servants didn't hurt him, so he wouldn't kill him.

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

If he really wanted to eradicate the grass and provoke the relationship between Yan and Yong, why should Geng Chuan help him?

"You go and tell the emperor that we only killed Xu Xiang. I am afraid that some people are interfering with this, and they want the fisherman to benefit." Chu Yi ordered.

"Yes."

After thinking about it, Chu Yi asked Xiao Nian to send a letter to Zhou Ran, the commander of Luzhou, asking him to help, and carefully investigate the truth of the destruction of the envoys of the Yong Kingdom. It is best to see if you can find some clues on the corpse.

Murderers always leave clues behind.

"Speaking of which, Ben Gong promised Zhou Ran to prepare war horses for the Nanfu army, as well as cavalry," Chu Yi muttered to himself, "Alas, Ben Gong is really poor."

The news of the disappearance of the envoys of the Yong Kingdom did not cause any turmoil in Shangjing. After all, it was the matter of Zhao Di. Yong Kingdom 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 Empress Dowager's surname is Rong. Although she is not the emperor's biological mother, she is better than her biological mother.

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

She lost the king's heart because she persuaded Emperor Cheng not to carry out major construction projects, but Emperor Cheng also wanted her younger brother Rong Yin to lead the army to fight for him, so he did not dare to abolish the queen easily.

Empress Dowager Rong has been a queen for more than [-] years, and treats Emperor Cheng's sons and daughters equally, and especially prefers this only granddaughter, Chu Yi.

Four years ago, Emperor Cheng died, and the crown prince, Chu Fengchi, died of illness. Without a queen, the fourth prince tried to usurp the throne and blatantly killed the fifth prince. At this moment, the queen mother stood up and chose Chu Tingxiao, the king of Chu, to ascend the throne.

The King of Chu was known for being wise, with the help of the Gu family and the Cen family, and the support of the eldest princess. After a struggle for succession, her father successfully became emperor and changed the country's name to Chuping.

After Chu Tingxiao ascended the throne, the Empress Dowager used to pay homage to the Buddha in the Qianyuan Palace all year round. Chu Yi was always by her side when she was young. It was not until three years ago that she bid farewell to the Empress Dowager and returned to the palace to live in Weiyang Palace.

"Let's go, go to Yongshou Palace with Ben Gong to visit my grandmother. Ben Gong also has. I haven't seen my grandmother for almost a year."

When Chu Yi learned that the queen mother was returning to the palace, she immediately got up.

It's been more than a year. The grandmother of the previous life passed away before the fall of the country. After two lives, Chu Yi couldn't wait to visit the old man.

Moreover, to establish cavalry in the Nanfu Army, I still need to find my grandmother.

Chu Yi rushed to Yongshou Palace, and Ming Jing, the old palace maid next to the Queen Mother, came out to greet her in person.

"Aunt Mingjing!" Chu Yi called out with a smile.

"This servant has seen the princess, but I haven't seen it for a year. The princess has grown a lot taller, and the more radiant she is, the country is fragrant." Ming Jing was wearing a jujube-colored palace dress, her hair was black and white, her eyes were wrinkled with a smile, and she looked at Chu Yi kindly.

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

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

"Yongning is taller than Auntie," she said, glancing at the inside of the palace and asking, "Is this grandmother here?"

Mingjing walked in front to lead the way, showing a helpless smile: "Si Shi has returned to the palace until now, His Majesty, Prime Minister, and Doctor Feng have come to visit wave after wave. The princess will come in with the servants first, Taiwei Rong is inside."

Chu Yi's eyes lit up, then concealed the light in his eyes, followed the bright mirror to the back of a screen of landscape bodhi in the inner hall, and sat on the thickly padded rattan chair.

"This is prepared by the queen mother for the princess. The princess will wait here first." Ming Jing brought tea and snacks and put them on the table, and then withdrew respectfully.

Chu Yi touched the cushion under his body, knowing that this cushion must also be ordered by his grandmother.

She picked up a piece of dried hibiscus plum from the plate and took a bite. It was the sweet and sour she liked.

"You little bastard with little knowledge, you're taking care of others and hurting your family. The Ai family heard in Ganyuan that you and Feng Jia impeached the Gu family together!"

Outside the screen, the grandmother's angry shout came.

She pursed her lips and continued to listen to her grandmother "teaching" her younger brother - Taiwei Rong, Rong Yin.

Rong Taiwei has been in the army and horses all his life, and now he is the third prince in the official residence. In terms of generational relationship, he is his third grandfather.

It's just that Taiwei Rong was a serious and cold person, and he never got close to him like his grandfather and uncle.

These three grandfathers are like the needles of Dayan Dinghai, and they have a high prestige in the army. Only Su Jingyuan, the great general of Zhenbei, can barely stand side by side with him. Su Zhenyuan's qualifications are not as deep as the third grandfather.

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

"Eldest sister, you know that the Gu family is already too powerful, this year's new division champion is a disciple of Master Gu, and the household is all controlled by Gu Chengxi. The world of Dayan is not the world of the Gu family, but the surname of Chu. "

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

The Empress Dowager Rong snorted coldly and said, "The world is the world of the world! The Gu family has the ability, the emperor trusts them, what are you doing, Rong Yin, what do you say to the Ai family, do you still make sense?
Also, the Aijia heard that you were against the women's school in Mucheng. Dayan women could study for officials and open a school, why are you against 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 central Beijing, and each family has their own clan, and Mucheng is a small place. What's the use of opening a school."

Empress Dowager Rong's face was covered with dark clouds, and she roared again: "That was opened by Aijia! Aijia is happy!"

Captain Rong: "." Miscalculation.

Mingjing walked to Empress Dowager Rong: "Qiying Empress Dowager, Princess Yongning is here."

Empress Dowager Rong raised her head suddenly, the expression on her face changed suddenly, she was very surprised: "I'm here!"

Taiwei Rong, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but raise his head, with a faint smile 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 removed the circle of beads wrapped around her wrist, and carefully hugged her into her arms.

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

"The complexion is much better, the emperor has done a good deed."

The old man was clearly wearing a wide outer garment, but Chu Yi felt that her body was very thin.

She took off the beads in advance because she was afraid of hurting herself.

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

Chu Yi stood beside her and let her look at him carefully, and also looked at her.

The old man looked like he was only over fifty years old. He was wearing a black-gold dark-patterned satin weave and pinch flower jacket. He wore a lotus flower-gold hairpin on his head. His black hair was mixed with a little silver thread. A gentle touch of fine lines.

Chu Yi couldn't help but raised his hand and touched the soft hair of the old man. His eyes turned red, and he said softly, "Grandma, I miss you so much."

At this time, my grandmother was still healthy, but it was only four years after she received the news that her eldest brother died in battle, and now the silver dots have taken over the black hair overnight, and the silver frost on her head is dazzling and sad. .

"Don't cry, don't cry, Xiao Yongning is getting more and more beautiful, why are you crying, Aijia misses you too, that's why you went back to the palace, otherwise Qianyuan is so quiet and comfortable, the emperor wouldn't ask to return to Aijia."

Empress Dowager Rong quickly comforted her, took out the 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."

"Grandma is also happy," Queen Mother Rong responded, then turned her head and looked gloomily at Rong Yin, who was still kneeling on the ground, "Such a cute little Yongning, how dare you oppose her in the courtroom?"

Rong Yin: "."

"Ai's family returned to Beijing this time and brought you a gift, which was written by Ru Ninglu, and Ai's family hasn't had time to read it yet." Empress Dowager Rong thought of something and whispered.

Like condensation?How familiar is this name.

Before she could think about it, Mingjing laboriously held a stack of thick scrolls and placed them on the desk in front of her.

"Princess, this is something you can't even buy in the market. It's a hardcover version."

——"The Merry Prince and 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 the blue background, and the corner of his mouth twitched, thinking about it.

When I was a child, I always pestered my grandmother to tell stories. My grandmother was helpless, reading all kinds of words and meeting all kinds of requirements of her granddaughter.

As for Ru Ninglu, she is a very famous Mr. Huaben in Beijing in the past two years. She has a mysterious identity and is good at writing lingering court love stories. Chu Yi enjoys it, but hates that it takes too long to publish a book.

It's a pity that Mr. Ben should have died when the country was destroyed in his previous life. The book "Princess Order" that she liked to read the most, did not see the end until she died.

When she was terminally ill, she made a joking request to Xiao Yan, if Ru Ninglu was still alive, if "Princess Order" ended, you must burn it to me.

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

"It's still grandmother who understands Yongning. In fact, I have read these Yongning books, but I can still learn new ones by reviewing the old ones."

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

The queen mother asked: "Have you seen it? Then tell Ai Jia, how is the prince in the Merry Prince and the pretty nun?"

Chu Yi coughed, with an embarrassed expression on his face: "This grandmother, do you really want to know?"

"It's okay, Aijia likes to know in advance."

"died."

"."

"Nun, where is the nun?" the queen mother asked unwillingly.

"It's still vulgar."

"Doctor Wen in The Adventures of Doctor Wen"

"Also dead."

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 or angry, it's all Mr. Ben's fault for writing the book!

"If this bastard is Ninglu, it's best not to let the Ai family know who he is!"

Next to him, Rong Yin was finally able to interject. He said, "Eldest sister, how can you read such a side book and drag Princess Yongning with her. The princess is still so young. Isn't this teaching a bad princess?"

The empress dowager had nowhere to vent her grief for being spoiled, and when she heard this, she turned her head slowly.

With flames burning in her eyes, she finally found the object of venting her anger: "Der Jing, drag this stupid brother of Aijia out and kill him."

Rong Yin: ? ? ?
