green bamboo dream

Chapter 99 Aftermath

Yu Zhu threw herself into Cui Shi's arms in a daze, what's going on?God, do you want to be so wicked, but this man seems to be... Yu Zhu stroked the bristling hair on his arm, feeling dizzy even more. 【26nbsp;】

Over there, the fourth prince and Cheng Xunxun had already made a decision after a brief conversation.

"Thank you Mrs. Lin for your help. This king will keep it in my heart, and I will definitely thank you in the future." The fourth prince who got out of the car door returned to his original gentleness without any flaws, and the demeanor of the royal family was undoubtedly revealed.

Mrs. Cui was polite, and then she wanted to leave and go back to the mansion. She didn't know what the fourth prince said, but in the end, Cheng Xunxun asked them to escort them back to the mansion, and the fourth prince was escorted back by the cavalrymen from the Shenji Battalion who rushed over. palace.

The carriage regained its stability again, and halfway along the road, Ruqing was picked up by the carriage sent by the Xu family who came after hearing the news. The carriage carrying the maids and mother-in-law ran away in the rush just now, so at this moment the carriage There are only two people, Yu Zhu and Shang Cui.Taking a sip of strong tea in his mouth, the nausea felt much better. Yuzhu leaned listlessly on Cui Shi's shoulder, listening to the steady sound of horseshoes outside, his heart, which had been tense for a long time, finally calmed down, in a trance There is a feeling of survival after disaster.

"Is it better?" Cui patted Yu Zhu's pale cheek affectionately, "Would you like some more tea?"

Yu Zhu slowly swallowed the tea in his mouth, shook his head, his body may be delicate, but his heart is absolutely strong, he has recovered almost now, and secretly made up his mind that he should go out less in the future, The outside world is very dangerous, and it is rare to come across a door where you will be killed by a knife. If you really lose your life, you will not die unjustly.

It was said to be an escort, but in fact it was really an escort. All the way back to Deyuan in silence, Cui looked at her daughter worriedly, how can she get out?I still have to avoid it, but I should say thank you logically, but there is no maid beside me... I can't sit in the carriage and shout loudly.

"Farewell." Suddenly there was a deep sound from outside, followed by the crisp sound of horseshoes gradually going away, obviously much faster than when they came.

Before Mrs. Cui could react, the door of the carriage was opened, and then Mama Liu's eager face was revealed, "Oh, my wife, are you all right, you scared the slaves to death."

The maids who followed hurriedly put their feet down, and those who helped people helped them, and they soon surrounded Cui Shi and Yu Zhu into the inner courtyard.

Because they ate vegetarian food in Pudu Temple at noon, there was not much oil and water, and after experiencing such a fright, the two of them were already hungry. Mama Liu first brought two bowls of stewed tender egg custard, and the tender yellow eggs trembled. Towering, coupled with bright green scallions, it is extremely appetizing.

"Eat some padding first, calm the shock, and let it go." Liu's mother babbled, and turned her head to direct the maid to serve the food.

"Master is here." The little maid at the door raised the bamboo curtain, Yuzhu looked up and saw the stern Lin Yuanzhi striding in, first of all, he looked at his wife and daughter carefully, everyone was safe and sound, Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, "Bamboo girl is really scared today." I have to say that Lin Yuanzhi is really a good father. Although he is an orthodox scholar-bureaucrat, his care for his family is not inferior to modern men. Looking at it, Yu Zhu felt her nose sore.

"No, it was just turned upside down by the carriage, and I didn't see anything else." When she saw it, it was like watching a movie, Yu Zhu thought, she completely understood Lin Yuanzhi's worries, all the girls in the boudoir were as delicate as flowers, with a little A little fright is not as simple as having a nightmare, it is often a matter of going crazy.

Cui's ability to recover should not be underestimated. Apart from her temple hair being a little disheveled at the moment, it seems that this unexpected disaster has left no other traces on her body. "I didn't expect her to be so daring. The mother and son also have a fourth prince who doesn't know martial arts, and they don't know how many assassins are out there. Ruqing was scared to tears, and the concubine was also very scared. She didn't know what to do, but this girl immediately let Lao Cui I am driving the car, I am afraid I followed the master." Cui could not help showing off a few words.

Although he knew that the mother and son were fine now, Lin Yuanzhi still had fear on his face, "Is it Ji Geer's bad idea?"

"I don't know about this concubine, but it was a mess at the time. I thought there was nothing I could do. After all, the assassins were wearing common people's clothes and mixed in the crowd. It was too difficult to find out. If the fourth prince was not taken away, those dark hands would be hard to guard against." .” Cui subconsciously defended her son, completely ignoring that today’s catastrophe was caused by this.

"You just let him mess around."

During the conversation, the table was already filled with dishes, Cui frowned and looked at it, "Who is impatient with these things, go cook some rice porridge, and make some side dishes... Hey, Brother Ji, why are you back?"

Maybe mothers are always the most sensitive to their children's breath. As soon as Lin Zongji appeared at the door, before the maid had time to report, Cui Shi had already found out.

Lin Zongji stood shivering at the door and dared not come in. Seeing that his body was covered in dust and there were some dried blood on his clothes, Cui's heart softened a long time ago, and she was about to step forward and pull him in——

"Regret now?" While speaking, Lin Zongyan walked in from the outside, and Du Shi followed closely behind half a step behind. "The coronation ceremony is about to take place, how can you still act so unsteadily?" The eldest brother is like a father, and the two brothers are relatively close. Lin Zongyan never "soft-spoken" when training his younger brother.

"What are you doing standing at the door? Why don't you come in and explain the matter clearly." Lin Yuanzhi's strict father was putting on airs.

Lin Zongji entered the door with his head down, and knelt heavily in front of Cui with a thud, "It's because the son is not good, and the tired mother and sister are in danger." He knew he was wrong, and their Shenji Camp was responsible for the inspection and arrest of the capital. , because Brother Cheng was stumped by something today, so he was the one who made the inspection on his behalf. Unexpectedly, his head got hot for a while, and he actually...

Under the stern eyes of his father and elder brother, Lin Zongji explained the ins and outs of today's incident in detail. In his flat and dry narration, Yuzhu finally knew why he was unlucky.

It turned out that the fourth prince accidentally heard about the folk custom of setting off river lanterns, so he came up with the idea of ​​wearing a micro-clothes today, because he had gone out in the past, and he only changed his clothes when he was familiar with it, and took two guards and turned onto the street, but I don’t know what’s going on, but when I went to the river embankment to look at the river lanterns at night, someone suddenly stabbed me in the crowd, and I was able to escape only because the guards next to me blocked the poisoned dagger... Afterwards, the fight attracted the attention of the gods. Ji Ying noticed, and hurriedly brought people to help, but unfortunately the patrol team was too small, and the assassin was hidden in the crowd, so it was extremely difficult to guard against. Lin Zongji saw his own carriage again, so he made such a bad plan...

Lin Yuanzhi unconsciously turned the thumb in his hand, only feeling a headache, this is no surprise that this is another battle for the position, so why couldn't the Holy Spirit establish the crown prince earlier?

Early in the morning of the second day, the officials of the fourth prince's faction accidentally proved his conjecture. The officials of the fourth prince's faction tried their best to lead the suspicion of assassinating the fourth prince to the fifth prince's faction. The fifth prince's faction also complained and said that the fifth prince also went out last night. , and was also assassinated, and the injury was much more serious than that of the fourth prince... Both princes have called for sick leave, and the backbone of the two factions are not bored, you are fighting happily with each other.

Emperor Ming Hui half closed his eyes, making people wonder if he was asleep or awake. Eunuch Wan carefully glanced at the emperor's face, and tried to lower his head again and again, not knowing that the following people were talking non-stop and their faces were full of swells. I don't know if the red-haired lord is real or not. Judging from his experience of serving the emperor for so many years, the emperor is definitely not in a good mood at the moment. I didn't see that many elders closed their lips tightly and said a word. Don't you dare to spit it out? It's true that the ignorant are fearless.

Sure enough, not long after, Emperor Ming Hui stood up, took a deep look at the officials who finally stopped feeling something was wrong, turned around and left without saying a word, Eunuch Wan hurriedly followed, leaving a silence the main hall...

Since then, the struggle between the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince has taken another step up, and it is unknown how many people's fates will change because of this.

Lin Yuanzhi called his two sons to the study room. The situation in the court has been severe recently, and some taboos and precautions that should be avoided should be familiarized by heart.

"Father, the emperor is still alive. Why are the two princes fighting like this? Aren't they afraid of the emperor's reprimand?" Lin Zongji stayed in the barracks for a long time, and his thoughts became more and more straightforward, which made Lin Yuanzhi quite helpless.

The fan in Lin Zongyan's hand "slapped" on his younger brother's forehead, "Can't you grow some brains?"

"I'm not like you guys, I don't need to go round and round."

"Why, you don't need to be scheming as a military commander?" Lin Zongyan snorted coldly, "If you still have such an attitude in the future, why don't you go to the military camp again, and stay at home honestly, so as not to cause trouble."

When their brothers stopped talking, Lin Yuanzhi said: "The emperor's thoughts... It's hard to guess, and there's no need to guess. Since people like us have already had that kind of involvement with the fourth prince, don't cover it up and provoke me for nothing. People joke... But you don't need these, you two just need to remember, be loyal to the emperor, we are only loyal to the emperor." Lin Yuanzhi's voice was firm, and his slender and elegant body was faintly tinged with iron and blood.

The aftermath of the assassination subsided slowly, and within a few days, Bai came to thank her in person again, and when she saw Cui's face, she pulled her sleeves and cried without fear. I know why Ruqing is crying so much.

"I'm lucky to have met you, otherwise wouldn't you have dug my heart?" He pulled Yuzhu into his arms again, "I also want to thank Sister Zhu, our Sister Zhu is really amazing, you Ruqing sister is also a big thank you!" I'm sick in bed." Bai's voice was extremely gentle, and she coaxed Yuzhu like a child, and there was a faint fragrance in her arms, it was a pleasure to be hugged.

Feeling the cool and lubricating texture of the freshly put jade bracelet on her wrist, Yu Zhu looked at Cui Shi in embarrassment, Cui Shi knew what this daughter was up to, she couldn't laugh or cry, and waved her hands in disgust: "Let's go, let's go , children go back to the room."

Yu Zhu happily ran back to the room, found two identical clothes, planning to wear one set tomorrow, and bring another set to visit Ruqing, there is no such thing as the ancient version of sisters' clothes.

But people are not as good as heaven, and sisters' clothes can't be worn for at least a year, because there are mourning sounds in the palace at night, and the queen mother has passed away.
