Empress Dowager: Husband, please lie down

Chapter 230 Secretly returning to Beijing, the secret of Xiangbei Forest

Ruan Eryue hurriedly ordered Shi Wen to follow, secretly protected Xia Houqing back to the palace, and found out what was going on, and came back to tell them.

If something really happened to Xia Houqing, she would definitely stand up for her.

And the two of them didn't sleep well all night and waited all night, but Shi Wen didn't return home to answer.Seeing that it was already bright outside, thinking that something must have happened in the palace, Ruan Eryue hurriedly got up and put on her clothes, and was about to enter the palace.

However, before she got dressed, Shi Wen came back.

Said that nothing happened in the palace, Zuo was just some intrigue among the concubines, and the Queen Mother was so angry that she lost her head.At first, she thought it was serious, so Xia Houqing rushed back to the palace in a hurry.

However, Shi Wen brought back another piece of news.

It was said that Ruan Hongwei and Ruan Ke had already left Jialing County last night, but for some reason, all the troops led by Ruan Ke were poisoned, including Ruan Ke.Vomiting and diarrhea, as of last night, nearly a thousand soldiers had died.

Probably, it was caused by drinking water from a mountain stream yesterday.Because it happened that Ruan Ke led a team to look for the water source, found it first, drank it, and then went back to report the good news to Ruan Hongwei.

However, before they returned to meet Ruan Hongwei, they had already fainted halfway, and they were discovered by Ruan Hongwei and the army after they caught up.

The local township doctors were at a loss, and at this time they happened to be stuck on the way between Jialing County and Lanling County. Seeing that everyone was getting sick, Ruan Hongwei didn't dare to let everyone go on.

Ruan Hongwei didn't dare to delay any longer due to the urgency at the border.

Seeing the urgency of the situation, Ruan Hongwei ordered people to escort Ruan Ke and the thousands of poisoned soldiers back to Jialing County.There are many doctors in the city, there should be someone who can cure this poison.

And he himself continued to lead the army to the border.

Then, he sent people to rush back to Beijing to report the matter to Xiahou Zhu.

Xiahou Zhu was very angry when he found out about this, but such things cannot be avoided.Moreover, he has been poisoned, and his life and death are still unknown. Can you still let others rush to the border to guard?

Originally, she was afraid that Ruan Ke's staying in the capital would hinder him from doing some things, so she was transferred out of the capital together with Ruan Hongwei.

Hearing this news at this time, I was really unhappy.

Helpless, and there is no way.

He ordered people to secretly verify this matter, and it did indeed exist.

So, Xiahou Zhu Caishan gave up, anyway, Ruan Ke was just recuperating in Jialing County.It's not that he returned to the capital, and he will continue to go to the border after he recovers from his illness. What do I have to worry about?
However, what Xiahou Zhu didn't know was that after the spies sent by Xiahou Zhu heard the news and returned to the capital to return to his command, Ruan Ke secretly brought hundreds of good men back to Beijing to lurk and secretly monitor Xiahou Zhu's every move.

Xiahou Zhu's recent behavior is very strange, and Ruan Hongwei is afraid that he will do something secretly.In addition, what Ruan Ke proposed last time cannot be easily swayed by Xiahou Zhu.So after discussing with the father and son, they decided to adopt this method.

For one thing, if Xiahou Zhu did something secretly, Ruan Ke could also secretly stop it;

Secondly, even if Xiahou Zhu knew about it, he would let him understand.The reason why the Ruan Mansion listened to your orders was because they respected you as the emperor, so they faithfully worked for you and listened to your various orders.

However, this does not mean that if you are seriously suspicious, we have to accommodate you all the time, and let you know that our Ruan Mansion is really as you suspected, and it really has some disobedience.

The Ruan Mansion is a family of military officers, and it is bloody!

On the fourth day, Ruan Ke secretly entered Prince Jing's mansion and met with Ruan Eryue and Xiahou Yin.At the same time, Ruan Hongwei's instructions were conveyed.

Looking at Ruan Ke, who was lurking in the capital secretly to protect them, compared to the high-spirited appearance when he left the capital seven days ago, his skin was tanned and his face covered with stubble, and he was hiding from the spies sent by the emperor because of pretending to be sick. , Ruan Eryue suddenly felt sorry for Ruan Ke, who had eaten poisonous fruit with thousands of soldiers loyal to the Ruan Mansion, and his face was a little haggard.

"Second brother must have had a hard time driving all night, go and have a good rest first. You live in Prince Jing's Mansion, no one will find out."

Ruan Eryue wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes, and said with a smile.

Xiahou Yin also told Ruan Ke to go to rest first, if there is anything to do, wait until he recovers.

But Ruan Ke refused. He patted the top of Ruan Eryue's head, and the clank and iron man became very gentle at this time, "No, I took soldiers to station secretly outside the city. If you lived in Prince Jing's mansion, frequent entry and exit would be annoying. Doubtful. And..."

"There are quite a few spies around Prince Jing's mansion. In order not to cause trouble, I will visit you once in about ten days. By the way, my father asked me to tell you to just do your own thing well. No matter what, he will guarding you behind your back."

After finishing speaking, Ruan Ke picked up the teacup on the table and drank it down, stood up and said, "I won't stay any longer, if you have anything to do, you can find me in Xiangbei Forest outside the city."

Seeing Ruan Ke disappear in front of them like a gust of wind, Xiahou Yin frowned, Xiangbei Lin...

"What are you thinking, so lost in thought?"

Ruan Eryue went up to close the window, but when she came back, she found that Xiahou Yin was lost in thought, she couldn't help stretching out her hand and shaking it in front of his eyes, and said angrily, "I found out, since the day you returned to the door, when you were in a daze There are more and more."

Grabbing Ruan Eryue's little hand dangling in front of his eyes, Xiahou Yin smiled and shook his head, "It's nothing, but Ruan Ruan, aren't you curious about where I went the day before your birthday?"

On her birthday last time, she left Ruan Mansion and went to Xiangbei Forest.It was precisely because someone deliberately let a prisoner sneak into his secret base as a spy last time, that made him bother and angry not to be by Ruan Eryue's side at such an important moment.

As a result, Ruan Eryue was later taken by Su Yu to see Rose Valley in the middle of the night, and after she had been jealous all night, the two of them were still so stiff.

However, it was after that time that they cherished each other and this relationship even more.

"Tonight, I will tell you everything, all my secrets."

Xiahou Yin smiled slightly, took Ruan Eryue's arm into his arms, turned around and disappeared into Prince Jing's mansion with his wheelchair.Ji An's expression moved, he exchanged a glance with Ji Mo, and quickly followed.

Since Ruan Ke also led people to lurk in Xiangbei Forest, he and Ruan Hongwei sincerely protect themselves as their own family members.Then, for the sake of Ruan Ke's safety, it is necessary for him to protect Ruan Ke's safety.

Therefore, he believed that even if Ruan Ke knew about the secrets in Xiangbei Forest, he would not do anything to harm him.

It just so happens that he also lacks someone who can take care of the base affairs in his place, it's not that no one has such ability.It's just that there is no one worthy of his trust to take care of the base for him.

　I have no manuscripts left, that's all, I'm busy again at work on Monday.I will continue to save the manuscript when I am done.
