The Young Lady of the General’s House

Chapter Seventy Two

Emperor Cheng seemed to be in conflict with Chu Xiu tomorrow. With Chu Xiuming in the capital, he would not have a day to go. Before this year was over, he learned that there was news of anti-people in Shuzhong. When he heard the news, Since Emperor Cheng wanted to go to a little noble man who was upright spoiled, he was not in the mood now, and even almost fainted, "What are you talking about? How many anti-civilians are there?"

The little **** who came to spread the news was all lying on the ground, not daring to lift his head. Grandpa Li Fu behind the emperor Cheng even let out his breath. He glanced at the little **** with some sympathy, the little eunuch’s voice. Tremblingly said, "In response to your Majesty, there are thousands of people."

Emperor Cheng kicked the little **** to the ground and kicked it a few more times. The little **** didn't even dare to cry. When Emperor Cheng finished his vent, the little **** was already bleeding, and he was curled up on the ground, out of breath. With less air intake, Chengdi looked more irritable in his heart, "Drag it down."

Li Fu hurriedly asked the other two eunuchs to carry the man down and sent it to the gate of the palace. He took a bit of silver from his arms and said, "For those who are celebrating the New Year, try to save them." This is really a disaster, but It is better for Chengdi to exhale with others than to exhale with oneself.

The two little eunuchs were also worried, and nodded vigorously but did not dare to take Li Fu's money. After Li Fusai gave them, he went in. The money was for other eunuchs, not these two little eunuchs. Take it, Li Fu sighed in his heart that the older he got, the softer he felt.

After Li Fu entered, he saw Emperor Cheng sitting on a chair. The blood on the ground had been cleaned up, as if nothing had happened. Li Fu poured a glass of water for Emperor Cheng. It was not tea, but it was cold. For the white water, give Li Fu some courage on weekdays. He didn't dare to drink this kind of water for Emperor Cheng, but when Emperor Cheng was angry, he liked to drink this kind of water.

Sure enough, Emperor Cheng drank two consecutive cups before saying, "Is that little **** okay?"

"In reply to your Majesty, there is nothing wrong. After just carrying it out, I can already go by myself." Li Fu said with his eyes down slightly.

Only then did Chengdi replied, "Let me take care of me."

"Yes." Li Fu knew Emperor Cheng best, had a tyrannical and suspicious temperament, but paid the most attention to fame. "It is also the blessing of the little eunuch."

In fact, Emperor Cheng didn't put those thousands of anti-people in his eyes. He had a million army... But most of the million army was not in his hands. Thinking of this, Cheng Emperor's face became even more gloomy. What are those bastards? What did you do? I brought so much grain and grass to the disaster relief, and the more I thought about it, the more angry I became, "This matter must never be known to Chu Xiuming."

Li Fu didn't say a word, just like he didn't hear Emperor Cheng's words. Emperor Cheng didn't expect a **** to know anything. The matter in Minzhong just ended soon, and Chu Xiuming himself was not tame enough, and the matter in Shuzhong... These two places are still people sent by him, and soon it seems that he is too incompetent and can't understand people clearly?

"Go and send someone to pass in Cheng En Gong." Cheng Di said coldly.

Li Fugong answered, and Chengdi suddenly said, "Wait for a while, and we will pass on tomorrow." Otherwise, he suddenly called Cheng En Gong into the palace at night, a bit too much, "Tomorrow I will say that the queen misses her family."

"Yes." Li Fu felt that this matter might not be concealed. This is not a trivial matter. Emperor Cheng was too taboo about Yong Ningbo, or that Emperor Cheng was too afraid of Chu Xiuming.

In Yongning Bo’s mansion, Chu Xiuming nodded after hearing what Yue Wen said, "I see."

Guan Shi looked at Chu Xiuming and said, "There is no news in the palace so far. I don't want people to know about Emperor Cheng, but can you hide such things?"

Chu Xiuming frowned slightly, he still miscalculated the thoughts of Emperor Cheng. It should be said that normal people can't understand Emperor Cheng's thoughts.

"What's the general plan?" Guanshi Zhao said.

Chu Xiuming said, "I'm afraid, Emperor Cheng should send me out of Beijing before the Yuan Festival."

Guan Shi's eyes lit up and he thought of his wife's belly, and he understood why Chu Xiuming's face was ugly, "Is it possible that Emperor Cheng thought that if the general was not in the capital, he would not know the news? Or would he let the general go to Shuzhong to quell the chaos?"

Chu Xiuming shook his head. Emperor Cheng was not so naive, and since the incident in Minzhong, he was afraid that Emperor Cheng would not hand over the matter in Shuzhong to Chu Xiuming. Minzhong was regarded as Emperor Cheng who stole the chicken and did not lose the rice, even if he was sincere. The emperor sent officials over again, but the people in Minzhong who spoke effectively were no longer the officials of Emperor Cheng. It was impossible for Emperor Cheng to watch Shuzhong also fall into Chu Xiuming's hands.

Guan Shi thought for a while and said, "How about the general and his wife?"

Chu Xiuming nodded and didn't say anything. As long as Emperor Cheng was a ruler and a minister, some things would be involuntary.

When she returned to the room, Shen Jin was still not asleep. She was talking to Grandma Zhao. When she saw Chu Xiuming, Grandma Zhao walked away with a smile. Shen Jin sat on the bed and said, "What's the matter?"

Chu Xiuming took off his clothes and boots and went to bed. He reached out and touched Shen Jin's stomach and asked, "Is the kid making trouble?"

"No." Shen Jin was itchy to be touched, and hid and smiled, "The child is very good."

Chu Xiuming thought for a while and explained the things in Shu, Shen Jin's eyes widened, "This..." How many unreasonable things did those people do to force the people to such a degree, "I'm afraid there is no Stay alive." If there is a way to survive, they would not do such a thing.

"En." Chu Xiuming said, "I got the news in the palace today."

"I'll let you change your clothes." Shen Jin thought that Chu Xiuming was about to enter the palace, so he said, "It's cold outside, take a bit of hot soup..."

"Don't be busy." Chu Xiuming said, "Emperor Cheng has no intention of calling people into the palace."

"Huh?" Shen Jin was really fainted this time, "but isn't something wrong in Shuzhong?"

In front of Shen Jin, Chu Xiuming did not hide. Although there was no excessive expression on his face, his eyes were full of sarcasm. Shen Jin touched his stomach and asked hesitantly, "Why? Don't you want to disturb everyone during the New Year. "After saying this sentence, Shen Jin himself felt impossible, "Could it be that he is afraid of being ashamed?"

Chu Xiuming grabbed Shen Jin's hand and put it on her stomach together and said, "I'm afraid I will leave Beijing in a few days?"

Shen Jin immediately didn't think about why Emperor Cheng didn't call someone into the palace immediately after receiving the news. Instead, he turned his head and looked at Chu Xiuming expectantly. Chu Xiuming kissed the corner of her eye, "I will find a way to stay. "Shen Jin is now almost seven months pregnant, Chu Xiuming dare not let her follow the road. Whether it is going back to the border town or going to Minzhong, the carriage will have to go for two months. In Yongning Bo's house, whether it is a delivery room or something else, it has been arranged. It's proper, but on the road... This is Shen Jin's first child, and Chu Xiuming doesn't dare to be sloppy.

So all we can do is find a way to stay in the capital until Shen Jin finishes her confinement.

Shen Jin didn't react for a while, and said in a daze, "Aren't you leaving Beijing in a few days? Why do you want to find a way to stay?"

Chu Xiuming patted Shen Jin's stomach lightly. Shen Jin looked down and reacted. He was a little touched but felt that it was not good. "It will delay things."

"There is no delay," Chu Xiuming said upon hearing this, "I am not planning to leave Beijing either."

Shen Jin felt that what Chu Xiuming said was a bit complicated, and after thinking about it, he grasped the key point. Chu Xiuming is not planning to leave Beijing, but may leave Beijing, but he will definitely not leave, and he will not delay things, which means he will stay with She, Shen Jin felt completely relieved, yawned and said, "Then go to sleep."

"Okay." Chu Xiuming said with his arms around Shen Jin, "Go to sleep."

Knowing that Chu Xiuming would not leave or delay things because of her, Shen Jin was satisfied with her. Before she lay down, she fell asleep before Chu Xiuming could say a few words to him.

When he woke up the next day, Chu Xiuming was no longer there. After drinking the goat’s milk vaguely, Madam Zhao waited on Shen Jin to clean up. Shen Jin’s dressing was simple, and she didn’t need to see the guests behind her at home. It is enough to apply a layer of grease instead of the powder. After breakfast, Shen Jin feels okay to do it.

An Ping saw him and said, "Why don't Madam call Xiao Budian to play with Madam?"

Because Shen Jin is afraid of the cold, and Mother Zhao and others are also afraid of cold Shen Jin, so there is enough charcoal in the house every day. It is enough to wear a thin cotton coat when you are in the house, but the little ones change their coats in winter. , It's thick and dense, so I don't like to go into the house anymore. Even when I enter the house, I am lying on the ground with my tongue out and whispering. Shen Jin looked pitifully and said, "Forget it, don't get too hot."

Madam Zhao smiled, "Why don't the madam think about a name for the child?"

"Yes!" Shen Jin smiled when she was reminded by Mother Zhao, "My husband asked me to give the child a nickname."

You can’t use needles and threads during the Chinese New Year. A few people just play around. Last time, Shen Jin said that she liked Shuang Qiao to play. Since the box was delivered, Anping and An Ning have both studied carefully and went to Mother Zhao’s again. I asked, who knows that Grandma Zhao really knows a lot of new tricks, so she taught two of them, and they are now slowly practicing, according to what Grandma Zhao said, they are already a bit hot.

Shen Jin thought it was good. She always felt that she was very clever, but she was really not good at playing collaterals. It became a mess if she tried to do it, "Actually, I'm good at embroidering." Shen Jin leaned comfortably. On the soft cushion, he sighed, "When I was not married, I embroidered good and beautiful ones among the sisters."

After she was a little proud, Grandma Zhao said with a smile, "The old slave also feels the same. Hearing from Guan Shi, Mrs. Zhao said that the major general brought the hand and ear protectors for the major general, and the major general immediately brought it and treasured it. Get up."

Shen Jin said, "Treasure it? Next time my husband wrote to my brother, remember to remind me to tell my husband that the thing was taken for my brother, and if it broke, I could do it again." Even though he said that, he heard that Shen Jin still feels happy.

Madam Zhao responded with a smile. The major general liked it, but she was a little embarrassed to take it to the barracks. Shen Jin chose the best fur. The coat is soft and beautiful. It is warm and comfortable when worn, but it looks like... When I first brought it to the barracks, I was ridiculed by a group of people. Chu Xiuyuan was so young and he was naturally reluctant. Finally, he put it away by himself and couldn’t wait to go to the barracks to wear it, but he usually spends most of the time. In the barracks and the mansion, the opportunity was really useless, but these grandmothers Zhao wouldn't tell Shen Jin.

Even with soft cushions, Shen Jin felt tired after sitting for a while, so An Ping and An Ning helped her walk slowly in the house. Mother Zhao talked about the arrangements in the delivery room, "Midwife and doctor are generals. It's specially sent from the border town, so you can use it without worry."

"What about the nanny?" Shen Jin wanted to feed the child by herself, but what if the child is hungry because of insufficient milk? So we still have to prepare the nurse.

"It was the princess who helped to find it, and now lives in the Royal Palace of Rui." Madam Zhao said, "When the wife's child is born, I will receive it in the house."

Shen Jin nodded, and Grandma Zhao said, "Madam, the old slave has something to ask Madam."

"Oh!" Shen Jin's eyes lit up when she heard this. She always thought that Grandma Zhao could do everything, but now she has a question to ask her! Sure enough, she is still smarter, because her mother used to say that having a child is stupid for three years. At this time, Shen Jin can regain confidence.

Grandma Zhao glanced at the little maid around. Shen Jin was still waiting expectantly for Grandma Zhao to ask her a question. Grandma Zhao winked again. Shen Jin blinked and looked around for a while. Suddenly Said, "Oh, I see, you all go down, An Ning and An Ping keep a watch."

"Yes." Everyone went down when they heard the words. Anping and An Ning guarded one by the door and the other by the window.

For the first time, Shen Jin knew that Grandma Zhao still values ​​face so much, and said with comfort, "Well, there is no one for Grandma now. In fact, it's not a shame to ask if you have any questions!"

Grandma Zhao couldn't laugh or cry, but she didn't care about it and said, "Yes."

Shen Jin nodded and urged, "Mother ask." She was in the house all day, and she was a little bored.

Madam Zhao poured a glass of water for Shen Jin and said, "Emperor Cheng called the former prime minister into the palace early this morning, saying that the queen missed her family."

Shen Jin nodded. This is a good excuse, but I was too impatient early in the morning, but it won’t be easy to be able to bear it this morning. What would you say? It must be a bad idea to bully the husband, but the husband has known for a long time...When the husband comes back, it is better to eat that sweet and sour fish at noon. Yesterday, Grandma Zhao seemed to say that the Fuzhong specializes in raising a few fish...

Grandma Zhao looked at Shen Jin with her eyes wide open. She was obviously in a daze. She was helpless but didn't mean to bother. When Shen Jin thought for a while, she suddenly said, "Mother, it's better to eat sweet and sour fish at noon."

"Okay." Madam Zhao knew that it was turned back again, and she responded with one bite, and then asked, "The old slave will go to the kitchen to explain it later."

Shen Jin held his belly contentedly, nodded and said, "Make another small veggie pot, but the tofu will be fried."

"Okay." Grandma Zhao agreed.

Shen Jin nodded, thought for a while and said, "By the way, the mother just said that the queen missed her relatives and called her parents into the palace, then what?"

Madam Zhao continued this time, "How does Madam think they will deal with the general?"

Shen Jin thought for a while, took a sip of the tea, and suddenly thought of what Chu Xiuming said yesterday, "No wonder my husband said yesterday that he couldn't leave."

Grandma Zhao nodded, "Yes, the general felt that it was Emperor Cheng who wanted him to leave Beijing."

"Yes." Shen Jin nodded.

Madam Zhao asked, "Why do you think Madam?"

Shen Jin said naturally, "Because he wants her husband to go."

Madam Zhao didn’t know how to refute it, but when she saw Shen Jin’s eyes, she felt like a little fox who had just stolen grapes, with a sense of triumph," the lady said to the old slave. Right."

Shen Jin moved his feet and said, "I won't tell you."

Madam Zhao was amused, "The old slave makes her favorite pastry in the afternoon."

Shen Jin actually didn't understand. Putting the matter on Xu Bianfei, Shen Jin gently stroked his belly and thought about it. Grandma Zhao did not bother. After thinking about going to Shen Jin, he still thinks that Emperor Cheng may be Afraid of embarrassment, I then wanted to send Chu Xiuming to Beijing, and felt that without Chu Xiuming, no one would say anything to the minister of civil and military affairs in the court.

Shen Jin couldn’t think of any more, so she told Mother Zhao what she had just thought of. Although Mother Zhao thought this reason was ridiculous, but... I don’t know why, Mother Zhao thought it was credible, and she didn’t. I know if Shen Jin's look is too sincere, or because the things that Emperor Cheng has done several times before are too...

After listening, Mother Zhao asked someone to come back and wait on her. She went to the kitchen to make Shen Jin what she wanted to eat, but Shen Jin hugged her belly and leaned on the cushion and then remembered.

Since Chu Xiuming had promised the little lady to stay in the capital and wait, he had to make more arrangements and give him a reason for not being able to leave the capital before the Emperor Cheng spoke.

Guan Shi said, "The general has decided?"

Chu Xiuming said, "Well, besides, I haven't found anything yet."

When talking about things, Guanshi Zhao's expression also became serious. Their most important purpose is to find something when they are going to Beijing this time. Chu Xiuming didn't say anything. Guanshi Zhao said, "I'm afraid it's really in the palace."

Chu Xiuming nodded, and the places where he could hide things were nothing more than those, most likely in the first uterus, but after Emperor Cheng ascended the throne, he didn’t know whether he was guilty or was looking for those things. At the end of the construction, the yard was locked. Apart from arranging a few cronies to guard it, no one was allowed to move in. The first imperial palace was originally the largest and best apart from the emperor and empress dowager’s palaces. It's no different from Leng Gong.

"I'm afraid it's not in the Prince's Hall." Chu Xiuming said. If he was in the Prince's Hall, Emperor Cheng would have found it long ago. After all, Emperor Cheng had dug the Prince's Hall three feet away, and even some of the Prince's calligraphy was completely destroyed. Thinking of these things, Chu Xiuming was able to calm down, but Guanshi Zhao’s expression was already hideous and his eyes were red. Thinking of the talented and gentle and humble prince, Guanshi Zhao clenched his teeth, and Chu Xiuming's hand pressed Zhao, who clenched his fist. Take care of things.

Guanshi took a few deep breaths before he calmed down, "I'm gaffeinated."

Chu Xiuming only then let go, but didn't speak immediately. Guan Zhao didn't use a teacup anymore. After drinking most of the teapot, he really calmed down and said, "Then, according to the general's words, do you want to do this first? Say hello to Madam?"

"En." Chu Xiuming said with his eyes down slightly, "I need it."

The two improved the plan again. Chu Xiuming only went back and saw the little lady who was in a daze. He walked over and touched the little lady's face and said, "What's the matter?"

Shen Jin blinked and looked at Chu Xiuming for a while before reacting and smiling, "Husband."

Chu Xiuming answered and asked, "What do you think?"

After Chu Xiuming came in, Anping and An Ning retreated to the outhouse. Shen Jin leaned against Chu Xiuming's arms and said, "The legs are uncomfortable."

Chu Xiuming stretched out his hand to help Shen Jin massage his legs. Recently, especially when sleeping at night, Shen Jin sometimes had leg cramps and pains. In this way, Shen Jin would not wake up, only humming quietly. Chu Xiuming didn't know at first. What was going on, I specifically called Madam Zhao to come, and later learned that when Shen Jin was uncomfortable, she would help her rub her legs.

If it weren't for Grandma Zhao to tell her secretly, Shen Jin didn't know, "Grandma Zhao said something to me..." Shen Jin said his guess and some thoughts.

Chu Xiuming suddenly felt that he had discussed so much with Guan Shi, maybe the truth was exactly the same as Shen Jin thought, "I also have something to tell you."

Shen Jin thought a lot after hearing it, and Chu Xiuming explained it carefully, "I can't leave Beijing for the time being, because there is still something."

Who knows that after finishing speaking, he saw that Shen Jin’s expression was not worried or guilty. On the contrary, it seemed to be looking at an idiot. As expected, when Chu Xiuming finished speaking, Shen Jin hugged his belly and laughed. , You guys are so stupid."

Chu Xiuming guarded Shen Jin, lest she accidentally bumped into him when she laughed, so she laughed and stopped twice, then continued to laugh, and then said, "Husband, have you ever thought about it if you really pretend to be like this? If he is assassinated and injured, will Emperor Cheng suddenly realize?"

At this point, they also thought that they would naturally be prepared, and Shen Jin pretended to be serious, "In fact, there is a very simple way."

Shen Jin felt very satisfied today. Not only Mother Zhao came to ask her, but even Chu Xiuming wanted to ask her, moving his feet happily, looking at Chu Xiuming expectantly, like a small animal begging for food.

Chu Xiuming put his hand on the soft couch and kissed the corner of Shen Jin's lips and said, "My sweet lady, can you tell me something?"

Shen Jin said, "You are thinking too much trouble."

Chu Xiuming's face was like a crown jade, and when the corners of his mouth rose slightly, he added a touch of charm, and his eyes were very intoxicating. Shen Jin couldn't help but hooked the back of his hand with his fingers, and said, "In fact, when Emperor Cheng said that , It’s fine if you just refuse, can he still tie you out?"

"..." Chu Xiuming was a little speechless. He looked at Shen Jin proudly and suddenly smiled, "I think too much, Madam is right."

Shen Jin squinted his eyes with satisfaction and said, "En." In fact, the best way to treat a person like Chengdi who likes to play tricks is to go straight, so that he has no choice. "When the time comes, you will say you want to accompany me. All right."

Chu Xiuming nodded, "Yes, I want to accompany my Jiaojiao." Seeing Shen Jin's smug look, Chu Xiuming's hand slowly moved along the neck, and the other hand reached into her. In her skirt, "My Jiaojiao..."

Shen Jin only felt that her body was soft, and she was so soft that she was on the couch. Not only did she blush, but her whole body was red, and she moved her legs, "Well... don't... don't..." begging for mercy like a kitten. The voice instead made Chu Xiuming stick to the side, being careful not to overwhelm Chen Jin's stomach.
