From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 405 The Lost Mei Xin

Du Quan took the order and left, while Mei Jinze stood up and went to the clean room to take a shower.Yuan Muqiu was very quick in doing things, and she herself was very worried about him catching cold, so the water for bathing was ready soon.

The prescription for the medicated bath was given by An's family, and the medicine was also obtained from An's pharmacy, so you can rest assured.Yuan Muqiu stretched out her hands to test the water temperature and checked the clothes that Mei Jinze was about to wear. After she was sure that she hadn't missed anything, she walked outside the screen and said, "Okay, let's go in quickly."

Nodding to indicate that she understood, Mei Jinze went behind the screen.He felt a little hot after taking off his clothes and sitting in the wooden barrel. He was so hot that he grinned and said, "Mother, is this water a little hot?"

Just tried the water temperature and didn't feel it was hot, Yuan Muqiu sat down on the stool beside her and said: "The medicated bath is so hot, you just sat in it, and you'll be fine after a while. By the way, there's a letter from the eldest lady." , Said that the emperor wants to call you back to Beijing for the New Year, a family reunion."

Mei Jinze stood up from the bathtub when he heard a thud, and realized that he was too excited, so he sat back immediately.He blurted out ecstatically, and asked with disbelief in his eyes: "Really? When did the letter come? Did you tell me when to leave?"

I haven't been back to the capital for many years, and I really miss my grandfather and grandmother.In addition, they are all old, and they rarely see each other.

Mei Xin sent the news as soon as she left the palace that day, faster than the emperor's imperial decree.Therefore, the letter did not specify the date of his return, but only said that the emperor intended to call him back to Beijing to discuss his marriage.

Yuan Muqiu sighed deeply when thinking of the matter of discussing marriage, and felt that the emperor's move was not well-intentioned, so she replied annoyed and worried: "The letter you received a quarter of an hour before you came back was originally delivered to you. I went to the barracks, but you arrived before it was too late. The letter didn’t say the date of departure, but it’s only two months left. My son, the eldest lady said that the emperor intends to marry you, so I’m afraid I’m going back to hide Not over."

It's not that the emperor didn't think about it when he was just an adult, and it wasn't that he didn't make up his mind, but he was blocked by the prince.Right now the prince is too busy to take care of himself in the palace, I'm afraid this marriage is appointed.

It would be fine if she was a woman from a well-matched family, she wasn't so worried yet, she was afraid that she would point to another woman like Mrs. Mei or Shangguan Xinrou, then he would not be able to live a good life in this quilt.

Everyone in the world said that the daughter of a scholar was sensible, but it was unexpected that Shangguan Xinrou was an unruly woman.With such a mother, the daughter of a good family might not be willing.

Hearing Yuan Muqiu's voice suddenly became low and full of worry, Mei Jinze poked her head out and looked at her and said, "Don't worry, godmother, if I mean marriage, I mean marriage. As long as I don't want him, he can still force me Can't sell it."

So what if he buys and sells by force, is it possible that he is in charge of the marriage and the bridal chamber?In the worst case, she would be thrown in the capital after she got married, and she would still be at ease in Liangzhou.

Speaking of getting married, I somehow thought of Wolf Girl, and thought of her bold words.Having a child with him but not wanting to marry him, I really don't know what's in her little head, the idea is so bizarre.

Seeing his ignorant look, Yuan Muqiu became even more worried, and said with a long breath: "Although I said that, but my arms are twisted past my thighs. He is the emperor of the Ninth Five. Who would dare to disobey the imperial decree? Besides, you are not just yourself. There is a big family behind you. The eldest lady said that she will ask her uncle to find a candidate, and she will write to you when she is selected. See you in private when you return to Beijing. If she is willing, she will find a way to deal with the emperor and then let the prince enter the palace to ask for the imperial edict of marriage."

Right now, there is still room for negotiation in his marriage, so what about the prince, what should he do?If she marries someone like Shangguan Xinrou again, how will the eldest lady get along with her in the future?She is still pregnant with a child.

Because Mei Xin asked him what kind of girl he likes before leaving, Mei Jinze said without any pressure: "Since there are aunt and sister guarding the gate, why don't you worry about it? It’s just that my aunt grew up in the capital, and she has gone to all the banquets in various prefectures these years, so you should put your heart in your stomach. Besides, there is also my grandfather, as long as his old man disagrees, the emperor will never dare to force him .”

He has deep admiration for Lu Guogong, and he believes that if the emperor bestows a marriage gift, he will never agree.When it comes to the Golden Luan Hall, it's still uncertain who will be unlucky.

Yuan Muqiu had heard about Duke Lu's glorious deeds a long time ago, his eyes lit up and he said with a slight smile: "It seems that I am really worrying too much, Duke Guo is just such a big grandson as you, and you are precious."

Feeling warm, Mei Jinze became proud, and said triumphantly: "That's right, I am the lifeblood of my grandfather, and my uncles can't compare to it. Godmother, hurry up and prepare things, maybe the imperial decree will come after two days." When the day comes, we can leave. My grandfather loves to drink, so I will bring a few jars with me when I go back.”

Returning home is like an arrow, he is happy when he thinks that he will see his sister soon, the previous haze is swept away, and he feels comfortable from head to toe.

Yuan Muqiu also had this intention, got up and put the letter in his hand on the table and said: "Understood, I still need your instructions for these things, and I promise to prepare them properly for you. Trust me and put it here." , you can read it yourself after soaking, don’t forget to reply, the eldest lady is still waiting.”

I don't know that something happened to him before that, and he disappeared for several days. After Yuan Muqiu finished speaking, he left.She deliberately didn't mention the matter that the emperor was going to give her father a marriage, she wanted him to see it for himself.

After answering "Yes", Mei Jinze honestly started to take a bath, because the bathtub was so comfortable, he fell asleep while soaking.

At the end of the hour, Mei Xin in Qing Zhixie of Prince Liang's Mansion was eating breakfast listlessly.Because she was worried about her missing elder brother Mei Jinze, she couldn't sleep well or eat for two days in a row. Whenever she closed her eyes, the ninety-nine 81 bamboos and his face of tragic death appeared in front of her eyes.Coupled with the fact that Cheng Sichu's whereabouts were unknown, she woke up from nightmares several times last night.

She still didn't think well enough, she should have left Cardamom or Yunluo in Liangzhou.Yun Luo and Dou Kou are careful people, and if they are by the elder brother's side, such a thing will never happen. Du Quan is not as good as Lu Qingchuan, he is too careless.

Yun Luo couldn't help but feel a little worried when she saw her listless and dejected. Seeing that she was holding the chopsticks in her hands for a long time without moving, she couldn't help but stepped forward and said: "Don't worry, Major General. After all, he is not an ignorant young man, even if he falls into someone else's trick, he will be safe and safe, and he will definitely be able to escape!"
