Spring Banquet
Chapter 76: Welcome
Huaiyu's matter has not been resolved yet, she always comes to him to intercede.
After giving Shuangtian a few words, Xu Chuyong got up and left the guest room, walked around the corridor to the backyard, reached a corner, and looked around at no one before squatting down slowly, with red eyes cautiously.
My mother said that the world is rough and people are hit by a lot of calamity. If you encounter calamity, you can't blame the heavens and others, so you can avoid it. She did so, and no one complained. If she could avoid it, she would avoid it, but after walking so far, why can't she avoid it?
God knows how hard it takes her to forget that there is a person like Jiang Shen in the world. Finally, this person appeared in front of her again, like a bad joke that God made with her, so angry and powerless. .
There are slight footsteps behind.
Xu Chuyong was taken aback, wiped his face quickly with the veil, pretending to be looking at the ants on the ground.
"Isn't it cold?" someone asked her.
Hearing this voice, the first brew was relieved, and turned around and said: "I will go back to His Highness immediately."
Chi Jin looked down at her, glared at her reddish eyes, did not ask anything, just said: "Today I visited the city, I saw two very good-looking soup ladies, so I bought them. Your Royal Highness is already playing, Miss Xu Go take a look too."
Tommy? Xu Chuyong stood up, moved his numb feet, and nodded, "Now go."
She is afraid of cold, and her favorite thing in winter is Tang Po. Hold your hands whenever you have time. The original one broke the day before yesterday, and there is no time to fix it. This is good, there is a new one.
The gloomy dark clouds above his head dispersed a little, Chu Niang smiled, and limped forward carrying his skirt.
Chijin glanced at her: "Have your foot hurt?"
"No." Xu Chuniang said with his head down awkwardly, "Squatting for too long, a little numb."
Chijin knew it, and pointed to the corner on the other side: "There is a stool over there, next time you can sit and watch the ants."
This person is really... Xu Chuniang thought it was funny. Somewhat moved.
Huaiyu was right. Chijin was a very considerate person. He knew she was hiding in sadness, but he didn't embarrass her.
"Thank you," she said.
Chijin looked at the road ahead as usual: "It's just a soup lady, which is worthy of thanks."
The first brew hooked his lips and nodded following his words: "I'll see what it looks like."
The ordinary soup lady is an oval copper pot, which Chijin bought is clever, not to mention handy. The whole body is engraved with a carp carrying a plum pattern, and there is a hollow plum blossom carving on the lid.
Li Huaiyu weighed it in his hand for a while, then smiled and said, "Bought it for me?"
Chijin nodded without shame.
Looking at the delighted Xu Chu Niang next to him, Li Huaiyu hooked Chi Jin to the front: "Don't you think this behavior is very compelling? The entire Feiyun Palace knows that I don't need soup lady in winter."
Chi Jin said with a serious expression: "Your Highness, it's okay if someone doesn't know."
That's also true. Looking at the happy appearance of the first brew, it was obvious that she hadn't noticed other people's thoughts, otherwise, with her temperament, she must immediately return the things to Chijin.
Huaiyu thought for a while, and said, "This person looks soft, but there is still the Xu family's toughness in his bones. If you treat her well because you sympathize with her, you don't need to. She still has me and General Xu."
sympathy? Chijin frowned in confusion: "Where does she need sympathy?"
"……Ok?"
Yu Guang glanced at the people over there, Chi Jin said: "Miss Xu is worthy of the world, and she is also worthy of the people. Even if she meets people, she still finds relief. Now she is walking on the street, and the people around her can nod their heads. Praise can also be appreciated and supported by poor people. What is the use of sympathizing with her?"
Huaiyu was taken aback, and then smiled: "It's me who is narrow, you see better than me."
"His Royal Highness, don't worry." He arched his hands, "Chijin always has a sense of measure."
"Good." Huaiyu clapped her hands, "I believe you."
Xu Chuyong just watched them whispering and didn't care what they were talking about. Caressing the warm soup lady, she breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling a little bit of warmth in her frozen hands, and a little bit of relaxation in her heart.
It doesn't matter, since you can't avoid it, then face it. Life is always going on, right?
When Jiang Shen woke up, he felt a lot clearer in his mind. He stared at the strange bednet for a while, then turned his head to look at the bedside.
Sitting with his back facing him, Xu Chuyong was carefully embroidering the pattern on a little gown with a needle and thread in his hand.
Staring at the gown for a while, and after confirming that an adult could not wear it at all, he said hoarsely, "That kid, is it the third brother's or whose?"
Xu Chuyong took a breath and looked back at him.
I didn't say a word when I woke up, it was really frightening to speak suddenly.
Jiang Shen frowned and pulled her **** fingers to lower his head, but Xu Chuyong broke away from him, sucked himself, and put his hand behind him.
"I came here just to talk to the second son." She pursed her lips. "His Royal Highness is pregnant. I hope the second son will not tell the Lord."
Is it because of this?
The hand that was frozen in the air slowly returned, Jiang Shen felt amused: "How much friendship do you have with Li Huaiyu, do you want to protect her like this?"
Xu Chuyong thought for a while, and said, "When I had nowhere to go, she took me in."
How could she have nowhere to go? That big Jiang Mansion... Jiang Shen wanted to refute her, but he lowered his eyes when he thought of something.
He is really terrible, he likes to bully. Knowing that she would be upset when she saw him making friends with others, she wanted to get in the way of her eyes, so she wanted to see what she looked like when she was really angry.
As a result, every time at the end, he couldn't find her in Shaohuayuan.
It was strange at first, I don't know where she hid, but now the truth is revealed, it turned out to be hiding in Moju.
Pursing his lips, Jiang Shen said: "You tell me whose child she is pregnant, I will consider whether to tell the third brother."
If it's someone else's, then there is no need to say it, but if it's from the Jiang family. This is a big deal.
Xu Chuyong glanced at him. After so many years, the husband and wife had been able to guess some of his thoughts. After thinking about it, she hesitated and said: "Anyway, it's not... it's not the king."
This person, even telling lies, is trying to lie to him? Jiang Shen shook his head and instructed Shuangtian: "Go and find someone in the house to inquire."
Shuangtian answered, Xu Chuyong was a little anxious: "You must do this?"
"It's about the Jiang family's bloodline, it's not sloppy."
I thought I could persuade him, but I could lie to him no matter what. Unexpectedly, neither will be achieved, and I hate myself for being useless when I get up, and I will leave.
"Where are you going?" Jiang Shen was anxious, got out of bed without wearing shoes, reached out and grabbed her wrist.
Xu Chuniang said without turning his head: "I'll get someone to prepare a car so that the second son can be sent back."
Jiang Shen didn't make a fight, "I'm so anxious to let me go?"
"What's the point of the second son staying here?" she said, "this line of cities is barren, there is no red street and smoke alley, the second son should go back to Ziyang earlier, and the days will be cooler."
Jiang Shen choked and gritted his teeth: "Why haven't I found your mouth so neat before?"
Xu Chuyong stopped speaking. His back looked stiff, with some anger.
Jiang Shen held his forehead with a headache, and softened his tone: "Can't you just talk to me for a while?"
Chu Bing looked back at him and asked, "What else does the second son have to say?"
He has always been able to talk. From the age of seven to seventy, there is no woman he can't coax badly. However, now, facing the black and white eyes in front of him, Jiang Shen couldn't straighten his tongue: "Where did you...Where did you put the book?"
"Sent to the main city of Danyang for my family."
His heart sank, Jiang Shen was slightly annoyed: "You can't wait to let everyone know that we are together?"
Taking a deep breath, Xu Chuniang felt a little funny: "Second Young Master. Did someone force you to write this Xiu Shushu with a knife?"
"...Not really."
"Then since you have written everything, why can't I give the letter of divorce to my family?" She said with some pain in her throat, "People who have been divorced should always give their family an explanation, right?"
"I... I didn't mean that." He wanted to bite his tongue. "I meant to say that I can take back the divorce letter."
So angry that he didn't know what to say, Xu Chuyong looked around, picked up the teacup on the table and stuffed it in his hand, poured half of the cold tea, and poured the water with his hand. Red eyes and asked him: "Can the water be taken back?"
Jiang Shen was startled, holding her hand and holding the teapot to pour a cup again: "Is this all right?"
Xu Chu Niang: "..."
Putting the teapot into his hand, she said: "I wish the second young man a new cup of tea will suit the taste, and the little girl will leave first."
"Xu Chu Niang!" Jiang Shen called to her.
Suddenly, if he didn't hear it, the person in front of him walked away without looking back, just like in Yinping, leaving his sight without nostalgia.
Jiang Shen looked at the door of the house blankly, and suddenly felt that the woman was really difficult to coax. He used to be clearly not angry, but now it is better. He can't do anything to let her down.
"My son." Shuangtian came back after inquiring about the news, and said, "After asking, the people in the manor said that what is in the belly of that highness...is the flesh and blood of shopkeeper Lu."
"What?" Jiang Shen was shocked, "Did you ask me wrong?"
Shuangtian shook his head: "I have asked a lot of people, and they all say that. It doesn't look like a lie."
How could it be Lu Jingxing? Such a big belly should be five or six months old. Wasn't Li Huaiyu still with Xuan Jin five or six months ago?
His face was a little ugly, Jiang Shen was silent.
He suddenly felt. I don't seem to be the worst.
"Your Highness."
Wu came back and told Li Huaiyu what had happened at the Changlin Jun's birthday banquet, and added a sentence at the end: "Subordinates don't understand what Ziyang Jun means."
Joint petition to reduce and exempt excessive taxes? Huaiyu half leaned on the soft pillow, with a strange expression: "He is... he has to fight against Huai Lin."
"What's the answer to this?"
Huaiyu whispered: "My Danyang land tax is not under the control of Kyoto. Isn't he the Ziyang land? Since he took the Jiang family to Ziyang, he has not communicated with Kyoto, and the tax is not discounted or discounted. He did not enter Beijing to report on his duties. It was a fief completely independent of the imperial power."
Under such circumstances, how would you write a book? It must be an attitude of expressing the wishes of the monarchs of various places to let the emperor reduce taxes. Anyway, it has nothing to do with him. It is another fief who wants to reduce taxes.
Those fools of Chang Lin Jun really thought Jiang Xuanjin was kind enough to speak for them? No one knows that as soon as Zhezi handed it over, in the eyes of the emperor, they all became people in the same boat as Jun Ziyang. Under the current situation, it has undoubtedly become a bargaining chip used by Jiang Xuanjin to check and balance the emperor.
An emperor Ziyang Jun was still thinking about fighting, and he was stationed in Linjiangshan. What if there are people like Lord Changlin, Lord Pingling, Lord Gongyi behind Lord Ziyang? Add up, but it is half of the Northern Wei Dynasty, how dare he move?
Li Huaiyu sighed: "I can now imagine Huailin's expression when he saw Zhezi."
I thought that by getting rid of Jiang Xuanjin, he would be able to completely stabilize his country. Who knew that Jiang Xuanjin had escaped from the heavens, and backhanded him a gift that would shake Sheji.
Don't you fear my 100,000 troops? Then I not only tightened the strength of my troops, but also tightened the surrounding Fengjun. Are you afraid?
Looking at Jiang Xuanjin's attitude, it seemed that it was not as rigid and loyal as she imagined. Even if Elder Jiang was pressing on it, he didn't seem to plan to go all the way to the dark.
However, no one knows what the future situation will be. Jiang Xuanjin's move will not be good or bad until the end.
"This..." After Wu wanted to understand it, he was very puzzled. "He is famous for the first generation of the Jiang family, but there are generations of Zhongliang's imperial pen, how could he do this?"
Huaiyu speculated: "Maybe it has something to do with Linjiangshan's troop? I heard Qingsi say that the situation in Linjiangshan is a bit tense."
As for Wudao: "After all, it is still the land of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Ziyang Jun did not allow the imperial force to be within ten miles of Ziyang Border Town. It was a bit too much. No wonder the reaction from Kyoto was great."
It is a rule between countries not to let troops be close to the border city for ten miles, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a provocation in the Northern Wei Dynasty.
Bai Ai said, who hasn't said a word: "We don't have to worry about this anyway. The land of Danyang is located to the west of Ziyang. Even if the people of the court attacked, Ziyang would be on top of it."
This position is also interesting. Ziyang's terrain is like a crescent moon, lying in front of Danyang and Kyoto. At the moment, it looks like a shield in front of Danyang.
The people of the imperial court could not even get close to Ziyang, let alone close to Danyang.
"Since it's nothing to do with us, let's say some other good news." As for Wu said, "His Royal Highness still remember Nanping Jun?"
Li Huaiyu said, "How can I not remember his old man? The monarchs from all over the world had rebellious intentions and gathered in Beijing. Li Shan pushed me to meet the group of monarchs. If he hadn't protected me, I would have no life to return to the palace."
Wu nodded: "Changlin Shouyan, Nanping Jun also went, originally there was a gift to be given by his subordinates, but the subordinates went alone, no one could transport so many things, so he entrusted Mr. Changlin to send it. It should be there in two or three days."
Huai Yule said, "This is indeed good news."
Chang Lin Jun has no hatred with her, but the relationship is not close. After all, the fiefs are adjacent, and there is a chance to pull two sentences, that's good.
The same news is different when it reaches Jiang Shen.
"What are you talking about?" Jiang Shen stood in the room, his face black and ugly, "The third brother is here?"
Shuangtian nodded: "The news that Master Yufeng just sent to people said that the Lord and Lord Changlin are on the way to the first-tier city, asking if the son is well."
If Jiang Xuanjin came at other times, Jiang Shen would at best scold him regardless of the severity, but now...
After thinking about Li Huaiyu's stomach, Jiang Shen shook his head repeatedly: "No, he will die of anger."
The entire Jiang Mansion knew how much Ziyang Jun valued the former Mrs. Jun. If he only passed the news to his ears, there would still be room for him to relax, but if he could see it directly, would it be worth it?
Jiang Shen got up and wanted to go out.
However, there was a guard guarding the door. As soon as he stepped out with one foot, two knives came across.
"The son is good for rest." The guard said blankly, "His Royal Highness ordered, I will wait here to protect the son."
Pooh! Protect him and put the knife at him? Jiang Shen gritted his teeth and thought for a while, let Shuangtian go out, so that he must stop the third brother from coming.
Jiang Xuanjin was in a very good mood along the way, even if the closer he was to the first-tier city, the more deserted he was, his eyes were still shining.
"Master, do you want to find the second son first?" Cheng Xu asked.
Jiang Xuanjin was inexplicable: "Why are you looking for him?"
The owner of my family is in a good mood, and Chengxu is also fattened by the courage, and jokingly said: "If you don't find the second son, then what are we doing in this tier city?"
Jiang Xuanjin pursed her lips, and the light in her jet-black eyes was more radiant, like black pearls just emerging from the water, with moonlight flowing in them.
Jun Lin next to him looked at him dumbfounded, thinking that this is not right? The monarch I saw in Ziyang was not like that. Being serious could scare him into speechlessness. How could he turn his face and become so gentle again?
Also... still a little joy?
Sitting in jeopardy, Chang Lin Jun began to remember, wondering if this Ziyang Jun was dropped by someone and he didn't find him?
"Master!"
Already outside the first-tier city, someone suddenly blocked the road ahead. Chengxu raised his head and saw Shuangtian and Yufeng return together, neither of them looked pretty.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Xu said, "You have something to say in the car, don't stand in the way."
Shuangtian shook his head: "Jianglin can go first. Third son, please listen to the minion!"
Jiang Xuanjin opened the curtain when she heard the sound: "What's the matter?"
Running to the side of the car, Shuangtian arched his hands: "According to my son, please go back to Ziyang and don't go any further."
After squinting her eyes, Jiang Xuanjin's voice became cold: "The reason?"
"The son said, Ziyang has a lot of affairs..."
With a sneer, Jiang Xuanjin said, "You must either tell the truth or let it go."
Ziyang has a lot of affairs, do you need them to remind? What's more, I have already arrived in a first-tier city. What is going on now?
Shuangtian was startled, and hesitated: "My son said, "I can't tell you the reason until I have to be forced, but if you have to go to the city, it is better to know in advance instead of keeping you in the dark, so you have to be prepared. ."
What is so serious? Chengxu turned his head curiously.
Jiang Xuanjin fixedly looked at him, as if he had some premonition, the light in his eyes sank little by little.
The princess's mansion was ready to welcome guests. After hearing the news that Chang Linjun and his party had entered the city, she wrapped a tiger-skin cloak and took Jiwu and the others out to welcome them.
It was sunny outside when I got up in the morning. But now I look up, and there are gloomy dark clouds above my head.
"Could it be raining?" Qingxian muttered.
Bai Ai sighed in her hand and said, "It's snow if it's going to fall. In such a cold day, the rain will have to freeze."
It rarely snows in first-tier cities, and it is rare to see it once in a few years. It would be nice if it could catch up. Huaiyu smiled and saw Jun Lin's Wang Qi from a distance, and walked over with her belly in her arms.
"Changlin Jun." She said, "Don't have it for six years, I wonder if you can still be healthy?"
The entourage all around knelt towards her. Huaiyu stared at the carriage headed, and waited for Chang Lin Jun to come out to answer, and exchanged greetings.
However, after waiting for a while, there was no movement in the car.
Huaiyu was taken aback for a moment and moved closer: "Changlin Jun?"
A slender hand stretched out and opened the curtain of the car, and the dark eyes of the person inside met her, like a deep winter canopy, cold and sharp.
With a shock in his heart, Li Huaiyu took two steps back. It is too late to cover his belly.
"Why... why are you?"
Jiang Xuanjin squeezed the car curtain, her eyes swept over her bulging belly, her voice was low: "Why can't it be me?"
She pinched herself to make sure this was not a nightmare, Huaiyu turned around and left.
The fragrant incense behind her came quickly, and she was grabbed by her shoulders within two steps.
"I thought you didn't want to see me, so you didn't go to Changlin." He lied up from behind, and his fingers on her shoulders trembled slightly. "So you didn't dare to see me?"
"His Royal Highness!" Jiwu and others ran up together, trying to protect her. But Jiang Xuanjin didn't dare to approach him with that look.
"You..." Huaiyu felt a bit dry in her throat, looked around, and said as if she had nothing to say, "Do you like a fox fur cloak?"
"Li Huaiyu." His voice was so low that he trembled, "When are you going to tease me?"
She teased him? His nose was a little sore inexplicably, Huaiyu turned his head, met his eyes, pointed to his stomach and said: "This is you teasing me."
God knows how happy she was to tell him when she was pregnant, and how desperate she was to be imprisoned in death row.
From the sky to the underworld, it is just that day.
Now that he knows, what does he want? This is her child. It has nothing to do with him, even if he wants to admit his mistake...
"His Royal Highness Long Princess." Cheng Xu suddenly said, interrupting her thoughts.
Huaiyu tilted her head and heard him say: "Even if my master is wrong, but when he married you, he was sincerely treating you. Don't you think it will hurt you?"
What? Huaiyu was puzzled. She was forgiven for not hiding the situation at the time, right? Who is to blame?
"Just go in and say anything, there is something wrong here." Yu Feng said, "Chang Lin Jun is still waiting."
Jiang Xuanjin squeezed her shoulder. He loosened it again, lowered his eyes, his lips pale and said: "His Royal Highness, please."
It doesn't look like joy, it looks like... an extreme depression?
Li Huaiyu was at a loss, was taken by Jiang Xuanjin to his mansion, looked down at his steps, it was really vain and messy.
