Returning to the Pastoral: Mrs. Yipin

Chapter 237 My Father Tells Me Not to Go Back

It seems that only a few days have passed, and the golden color that originally belonged to autumn has disappeared.

All the people in the city wore sackcloth and filial piety, and the city was completely white. Businesses were closed, and brothels were closed for entertainment. People all over the country had to be vegetarian for the 27th day of the Daxing Emperor, and observe the 27th day of filial piety.

As for those literati and bureaucrats, it is even more tragic, they are not as polite as ordinary people!As an elite of this era, enjoying privileges, he naturally has to fulfill due obligations.

King Fu brought his wife and children to Beijing, and even the princes and princes in the city were dispatched one after another, and the rich family even funded and organized villagers to go to Beijing for the funeral, intending to send the emperor on his last journey.

Today's son worked hard to govern, and defeated the people of Qing who had bullied Liang for many years. Now that he died on the road of Yujia's personal conquest, the sorrow of the people need not be mentioned.

In the early years, the emperor personally fought with his driver, and was hit by three arrows. This time, his old injury recurred, and he contracted a cold.

This made the entire country turbulent, and the hearts of the people in the world fluctuated, but the Qing country in the north breathed a sigh of relief.

I can finally rest.

Therefore, there was no sneak attack, and an envoy was sent to pay tribute to them in a pretend manner, and by the way, they expressed their wish for peace.

Rather than saying that they are kind, it is better to say that they have no ability to carry out sneak attacks now, and if they continue to fight, the country will be destroyed.

But now that Liang Guo was in a mess, he naturally didn't have the time to rub shoulders with them.

Of course, these things have nothing to do with Miss Su who is a commoner.She was just curious why Lu Shi didn't go back.

"My father wrote a letter earlier, saying that if there is any movement in the capital, no matter what the situation is, you must not return to the capital."

Lu Shi frowned and sighed, "I don't know what happened to King Xin."

"Xin Wang?"

Su Yun asked curiously: "Are you familiar with him?"

Lu Shi nodded and said: "I have been friends with him since I was a child. My father told me not to go back to Beijing. It must be because the people in the Eastern Palace are vacant. The Emperor Daxing will not be able to register the princes in the future. The hearts of the former court and the harem are fluctuating. How many heads will fall to the ground..."

Lu Shi sighed again, and said with a lonely expression: "Empress, oh, no, it's time to call you Empress Dowager."

After a pause, he said, "There are three sons under the empress dowager's knees. The former prince died young, and another son died, and he didn't live past five years. This king Xin is the third son of the empress dowager, who is about my age."

"Then what are you worried about?"

Su Yun said nonchalantly: "Since he is the third son of the Empress Dowager, it is not a legitimate thing for His Royal Highness King Xin to ascend the throne and rule the world?"

"Ugh……"

Lu Shi shook his head and said: "You ordinary people don't understand the things in the palace. Although King Xin is the first son, although there is a priority system for the first son, there is also a saying that the elder is not the younger. And the eldest prince is still alive, it is Li The imperial concubine was born, and she is in her prime, the current state affairs are difficult, the north has reached a critical juncture, the eldest prince is both civil and military, if he is a saint, the country will be stabilized quickly."

"But will the Queen Mother agree?"

As Su Yun asked, he also understood in his heart.

No wonder Xuan Haorui's face turned pale when he heard the Son of Heaven's visit that day.

At the time of this alternation of power, I think it will be another big cleansing, and there will be another storm in this world.

Colleagues also secretly admire Lu Shi's father.

This old man is smart!
However, people who walk around in the officialdom have a different way of thinking from ordinary people. I think they have a far-sighted and comprehensive view.

In other words, he knows that the relationship between Lu Shi and King Xin is unusual. If someone wants to make a fuss about it, then wooing Lu Shi is tantamount to kidnapping himself. what a good move.

Perhaps the best way to protect yourself is to wait and see and act, and then do it when the time is right.

It was indeed an old fox.

That's right, how can you become a member of the first and second ranks if you have nothing to do?

"King Xin is protected by the Queen Mother, so don't worry too much."

Seeing that Lu Shi was depressed, Su Yun couldn't help but comfort him, "As long as the Queen Mother is here, no one can move at all."

"really?"

Lu Shi raised his head, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but then it dimmed again, and said: "Actually, I don't think King Xin is suitable to be the Son of Heaven."

"Shh!"

When Su Yun heard this, he was startled, and quickly looked around. Fortunately, everyone in the yard was distracted by her, so he was slightly relieved, glared at Lu Shi and said: "You don't want to die?! This kind of Is it something we can talk about?"

"What's this?"

Lu Shi said indifferently: "Guochao does not commit crimes for speech, this is the rule set by the Taizu."

"That's for scholars, do you have any fame?"

One sentence from Su Yun made Lu Shi shut up. Seeing his aggrieved appearance, Su Yun pursed his lips and said, "Don't worry about it, alas, I didn't expect you to be a bit smart. Those few words just now are quite insightful."

"What?"

"It's just that the former court and the harem are not at peace..."

Su Yun said in a low voice: "I really didn't expect you to see it so thoroughly."

"cut!"

Lu Shi imitated Su Yun's common catchphrase, and said: "What did I think it was? As long as this is a child of an official family, even if he doesn't pay attention to the affairs of the court, he has heard too much from his parents. As long as he is not a pig, he will write it down." gone."

After a pause, he continued: "Things like this are recorded even in history books. Every time the old emperor takes the throne and the new emperor ascends the throne, there will always be a bloody storm."

Su Yun nodded in disbelief, paused and said: "But this has nothing to do with us ordinary people, let's live our own lives."

"We?" Lu Shi raised his head, suddenly smiled, and said, "Are you willing to marry me?"

"Who wants to marry you?"

Su Yun rolled his eyes, stretched out his hand and twisted Lu Shi's arm, but unfortunately he was acquainted with each other, so he couldn't twist it much, so he gritted his teeth and said, "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll beat you."

Lu Shi chuckled, and didn't talk back, but acted obediently.This is what he summed up by himself after getting along with Sanniang recently, and through the information from Xi'er and the others.This woman, she has a soft heart, she is the master who eats soft but not hard.

As long as you are like this...

She couldn't even blush even if she kept it.

Sure enough, seeing Lu Shi like that, Su Yun was a little embarrassed. Seeing that this person who is always full of vigor is now like an eggplant beaten by Shuang, he was quite uncomfortable, so he asked: "Are you hungry? I'll make you something to eat. It's just that you can't eat meat dishes right now. Let me make you a rice cake."

"it is good!"

A gleam of conspiracy success flashed in Lu Shi's eyes, and he said to Su Yun sullenly: "What do you care about eating at this time? I just hope everything can go through safely..."
