Chapter 78
Madam Zhao thought about it for a long time before saying, "This old slave really doesn't know."
Chen Jin listened to the curiosity, put his finger into Dongdong's hand, and asked him to grab it, "Is there a prince of my mother apart from my father?"
Madam Zhao was stunned for a moment and thought, "Yes, Princess Rui is older than Prince Rui... I thought of one thing. When Concubine Liu gave birth to the sixth prince, she disappeared. The sixth prince was adopted by the queen mother in the palace. At that time, the prince had already married the prince and the queen mother in the first place. The queen mother was not in good health. Although the sixth prince was raised in the name of the queen mother in the first place, they were all taken care of by the prince and the princess. The sixth prince also admired the prince... It really happened that the sixth prince was more suitable for Princess Rui. Before the accident, the princess specially summoned Princess Rui to the palace..."
Chen Jin suddenly asked, "How is that Sixth Prince?"
"Excellent." Madam Zhao said, "The Sixth Prince was taught by the Crown Prince himself." Prince Rui was far inferior to the Sixth Prince, but he was worried that Prince Rui was Chen Jin's biological father, Madam Zhao did not say this.
Chen Jin moved his fingers and felt that Dongdong's hand was soft, "Mother must be very frustrated."
Chu Xiuming didn't say anything, Chen Jin asked again, "Madam Zhao, do you think if the Crown Prince wants to marry her mother to the sixth prince, will they meet in advance?"
Madam Zhao said, "Yes, the prince and the princess are not those kind of rigid people, especially the princess will definitely let the sixth prince and Princess Rui contact first. After all, sometimes even if both parties are good, they can't explain the fate clearly. If they are in a grudge, the princess feels sorry for the sixth prince."
No wonder Prince Rui never cared about how she was flirting with her, because she didn't care.
Moreover, it is natural for Princess Rui to hate Emperor Cheng. According to Mama Zhao, the relationship between the sixth prince and the prince is particularly close, so how could Emperor Cheng leave such a person?
Dongdong's uncomfortable humming attracted Chen Jin's attention. Chen Jin hurriedly went to look at it and found that Dongdong had urinated. Chen Jin was about to take action when he saw Chu Xiuming had taken over and said, "I'll do it."
"Okay." Chen Jin didn't say anything, because he could only see Dongdong once the next day, and Chu Xiuming actually wanted Dongdong too.
After changing the diapers, Dongdong stopped making trouble, Chen Jin stopped thinking about these things, Chu Xiuming stopped talking and asked, "Will Dongdong make trouble at night?"
"It's okay." Chen Jin said with a smile, "Dongdong is very well-behaved."
Chu Xiuming looked at the faint blue color in Chen Jin's eyes, and said nothing. He just responded and touched Dongdong's face, "The Empress Dowager should have made moves these days."
"Yeah." Chen Jin nodded, "Can we leave soon?"
Chu Xiuming nodded and said, "Soon."
Chen Jin laughed when he heard this, kissed Dongdong's little face and said, "Dongdong, we are about to go home."
Chu Xiuming sat next to Shen Jin. Chen Jin reached out and pushed him, and whispered, "I haven't taken a shower for a long time." After that, he glared at Chu Xiuming. She had asked her mother before, but it didn't take so long. Dongdong was very obedient and she had a smooth life.
"I'm sorry, my wife." Chu Xiuming comforted her gentle words.
Chen Jin nodded, and she felt very wronged.
Chu Xiuming held Chen Jin's hand. Chen Jin felt something was being put on his hand. He looked down and saw that his hand was covered tightly by Chu Xiuming. After feeling it for a moment, Chen Jin said, "Bracelet?"
"Yeah." Chu Xiuming put the bracelet on Chen Jin before letting go of his hand. Chen Jin saw that it was a wooden bracelet, which was only round with one finger, and there was no carving on it. There was only the pattern of the wood itself, but it was polished and there was no roughness at all.
Chen Jin raised his hand and looked at it for a long time and said, "I like it!"
Since he became pregnant, Chen Jin rarely wears jewelry. After Dongdong was born, he no longer had any more earrings and jade bracelets. Chu Xiuming originally wanted to carve a hairpin for Chen Jin, but Chen Jin is not available now, so he got a bracelet.
"Beautiful!" Chen Jin shook his hand. The bracelet was originally made by Chu Xiuming on Chen Jin's wrist, and it was very suitable for her to wear it.
Chu Xiuming reached out and pinched Shen Jin's earlobe and said nothing.
Dongdong was gnawing at his little fist. Chu Xiuming took a cloth towel and wiped Dongdong's saliva. Dongdong looked at Chu Xiuming with his eyes open, but he didn't know what he was looking at. Chu Xiuming glanced at Chen Jin, who was still interested in the bracelet, looked at his son and pinched his little fist.
When Chen Jin had been in confinement for 40 days and finally had a bath, Emperor Cheng received the news and looked at Cheng Engong and said, "Are you serious about this?"
"The old minister would never dare to deceive Your Majesty with such a thing." Chengen Duke also said with a pale face, "It's true. If it weren't... just by those anti-people, how could it be the current climate."
The four descendants of the King of Ying made Emperor Cheng confused, and there were even barbarians. Emperor Cheng had no doubts at all. After all, King of Ying had done such a thing at the beginning, and his descendants could make sense to join forces with barbarians. Thinking of what happened back then, Emperor Cheng was not afraid of it.
"You go down first." Emperor Cheng said in a deep voice.
Chengen Duke said, "Yes."
Emperor Cheng thought of the missing Prince of England. He chose to eliminate the prince's lineage between the descendants of the King of England and the descendants of the prince. After all, the prince is truly justified, and the Prince of England has been infamous for thousands of years, but now Emperor Cheng regrets it. The Prince of England has no scruples for this throne.
After thinking for a long time, Emperor Cheng felt a mess and said, "Go to see the Queen Mother."
Li Fu lowered his head and responded.
In the empress dowager's harem, when he heard the news from the palace servants, the empress dowager was not surprised at all. She just sighed and raised her hand. Madam Zhen bent down and stood up, and then walked out. When Emperor Cheng saw the empress dowager, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Mother, Shuzhong..."
"Madam Zhen, take people down, there is no need to serve here." The Empress Dowager interrupted Emperor Cheng and said.
"Yes." After Madam Zhen brought someone to salute the Empress Dowager and Emperor Cheng, she stepped down first.
Li Fu glanced at Emperor Cheng, and when Emperor Cheng waved his hand, he also took his men back and closed the door.
The Empress Dowager then sat down and looked at Emperor Cheng and said, "What happened in Shu?"
Emperor Cheng said, "Mother, the matter in Shu was promoted by the Prince of Ying, and they actually contacted the barbarians again."
The Queen Mother was shocked, as if she had just learned the news, and she frowned and said, "Is this news accurate?"
"It was just found out by Chengen Duke." Emperor Cheng said in a deep voice, "I think I can't be wrong."
"Mr. Cheng'en...is not a wonder." The empress dowager sighed, "What's wrong with the second prince?"
Emperor Cheng actually valued the legitimate son of the palace. "I have someone to negotiate, but my life is not hindered."
The Empress Dowager thought for a while and said, "Where is Ruyang?"
Emperor Cheng shook his head and said, "Ru Yang and his husband went to the border town for a short time. Although the progress is still good, it can be the end..."
The Empress Dowager said, "Emperor, the most important thing now is not to allow the barbarians to break through the border."
Emperor Cheng's face changed and said, "My mother, let Chu Xiuming go back like this?"
The Queen Mother saw Emperor Cheng’s unwillingness and sighed in her heart and said, “I only ask you, which thing is more important now? Or… Which one poses more threats to you, the descendants of the King of England?”
"The descendant of the King of Ying." Emperor Cheng said in a deep voice. Moreover, the prince's lineage had been cleansed by Emperor Cheng countless times, so I am afraid that no one was left behind.
The Empress Dowager said, "If the Prince of Ying really colludes with the barbarians, may Ru Yang and the others resist?"
Emperor Cheng stopped talking and understood that if this was the case, Ru Yang and the prince-consort would definitely be as reliable as Chu Xiuming.
The Empress Dowager slowly breathed and said, "Emperor, the Prince of Ying has been preparing for more than 20 years. This matter in Shu is just an opportunity to act. No one of us knows his other trump cards, so we have to be careful. The Chu family... I have always disagree with you in dealing with the Chu family."
"But Chu Xiuming..." Emperor Cheng said in a deep voice.
The Queen Mother shook her head and said nothing, "You think about it yourself."
Emperor Cheng felt that the threat from the Prince of England was even greater. If he really joined forces with the barbarian soldiers to come to the city, Emperor Cheng thought of the situation at that time, although he did not think that he was worse than..., but when he thought of the scene at that time, Emperor Cheng still felt that he was still scared.
"Then let Chu Xiuming go back." Emperor Cheng thought for a long time and decided to say, "Pick Shen Jin and the child into the palace and accompany his mother."
The Queen Mother looked at Emperor Cheng and said, "Emperor, do you think it is useful?"
Emperor Cheng said, "I think he cares a lot about his wife and children."
The queen mother asked, "Emperor, do you think Yongning will lack a wife and son?"
Emperor Cheng asked, "What does the mother mean..."
The Empress Dowager said, "Emperor, what you have to do now is to win over Yongning Bo, instead of making people feel suspicious. Yongning Bo will never surrender to the Prince of England."
"I understand." Emperor Cheng slowly breathed, "I issued an order to grant Yongning Bo the Marquis of Yongning."
The Queen Mother nodded and said softly, "I only have two sons of you and King Rui in my life. I always want you to be good. All mothers have selfish intentions..."
"Mother, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of my younger brother." Emperor Cheng promised.
The Empress Dowager smiled and nodded without saying anything. Emperor Cheng had an idea in his mind and left without saying anything. After Madam Zhen came in, she looked at the Empress Dowager who was twisting Buddhist beads and said, "Empress Dowager, do you want to use something?"
"No need." The empress dowager said with a slightly lowered eyes, but she thought about it again in her heart, trying to find a way to get King Rui's family to leave Beijing. Emperor Cheng is her son, and she knows it best. When nothing happens, Emperor Cheng will naturally take care of King Rui, but if something happens... it is like because of a guess that he married King Rui's daughter to Bo Yongning, and was unwilling to issue a self-destruction, so he blamed King Rui.
When Emperor Cheng's imperial edict that Chu Xiuming was appointed as the Marquis of Yongning was delivered to Chu Xiuming, no matter what everyone in the capital was thinking, they all gave congratulatory gifts. After Chu Xiuming received the edict, his expression did not change at all, but just wrote a thank-you note.
There was also news from the village. Chen Jin was teasing Dongdong with a golden bell and said, "Is there anything else?"
Madam Zhao said, "There's nothing else."
Chen Jin said, "Then we are about to go back to the border town, right?"
Mama Zhao said respectfully, "Yes."
Chen Jin thought for a while and nodded, "Then the nanny packs up her luggage first."
Madam Zhao looked at Chen Jin's expression and said, "Madam doesn't seem to be happy?"
"Because it's useless." Chen Jin said, "Although my husband has been promoted to the title, we have returned to the border town, and this title is of little use."
Chen Jin put the golden bell aside, reached out to pick up his son and kissed him on the face and said, "It's better to give some rewards, but I think the salary will be higher in the future, which is a surprise."
Chu Xiuming was not like those in the capital. His biggest reliance was not on title. Madam Zhao laughed and said, "What the wife said is."
In the Rui Princess, Rui was carrying Chen Xi's luggage. Since the title has been brought down, it's almost time for Chu Xiuming to return to the border town. "Cui Xi, call Xier."
"Yes." Cui Xi responded with congratulations and went to invite Chen Xi over in person.
The border town is not as good as the capital. It sounds a bit bad there. Chen Xi just lives under someone else’s roof. Although Princess Rui knew that neither Chu Xiuming nor Chen Jin would treat her son badly, Princess Rui was reluctant to leave. Chen Xi came over quickly and smiled when she saw Princess Rui, "Mother."
"Come on." Princess Rui looked at her son, her eyes softened a lot. After waving her hand to let Chen Xi come over, she asked, "Let's see if you like it?"
Chen Xi then looked at the thing that the maid was holding on the side, and Princess Rui said, "Switch it to me."
"Okay." Chen Xi responded.
Princess Rui prepared a set of horse riding suits for Chen Xi, which was suitable for wearing now. After Chen Xi changed it out, she smiled and said, "Mother, I like it very much."
"Yeah." Princess Rui helped her son sort out with her own hands and said, "Just fit."
Chen Xi smiled and said, "It fits very well, thank you mother."
Princess Rui patted her son's head gently and said, "Okay, let's change it. I have a few words to say to you."
"Yes." Chen Xi went down and changed her clothes again. Cui Xi had already brought Chen Xi's favorite pastries and fruits, and then took the other people in the house to serve her.
Princess Rui asked Chen Xi to sit beside her, and Chen Xi asked, "Did my mother make the clothes for me?"
"Yeah." Princess Rui brought a snack for her son and said, "You will go back to clean up these days. I think it won't take long for your third brother-in-law to return and become your third brother-in-law and others. Then you can leave with them."
Chen Xi's eyes were bright and her face was full of joy. Princess Rui looked at her son and smiled. Chen Xi blushed and shouted, "Mother, I will write to you."
"Okay." Princess Rui responded softly, "I will say a few words to you today. Do you know if you want to remember them in your heart?"
Seeing Princess Rui's expression, Chen Xi also put away her smile, nodded with a serious face and said, "Don't worry, Mother."
Princess Rui looked at her son's appearance and said, "After arriving at the border town, no matter what you see, don't send a letter back to the capital, do you know?"
"Why?" Chen Xi asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Princess Rui said, "When you get there, you can ask your third brother-in-law or third sister."
Chen Xi nodded and said, "I understand, can I write about the scenery and interesting things along the way to my mother?"
"Yes, but after writing, I will ask your third brother-in-law or third sister." Princess Rui reminded.
Chen Xi frowned and said, "I remember."
Princess Rui said, "Don't get close to Ru Yang and the others after arriving at the border town."
"Don't you have to go to see your cousin and the others?" Chen Xi looked puzzled.
Princess Rui looked at her son and said, "I'm here to ask your third brother-in-law or third sister."
Chen Xi said, "My mother means that no matter what I want to do, have you asked my third brother-in-law or third sister first?"
Princess Rui nodded, "If you have any doubts, you can ask them, but don't ask the rest of the people, do you know, you have to listen to them."
Chen Xi felt that leaving home for the first time was not a good thing. Princess Rui said, "Xi'er, before your elder brother went to Fujian, I told him that if Chu Xiuming had nothing to do, then unless I wrote to him, I would not come back. I would also tell you this sentence today, unless I wrote to you to ask you to come back, you will be in the border town, and everything is followed by your third brother-in-law and your third sister."
"I understand, mother." Chen Xi asked hesitated.
Princess Rui patted her son's head, "Remember it in your heart, you will understand in the future."
"Yeah." Chen Xi said, "Don't worry, Mother, I know that my mother is for the sake of my brother and I, and I will definitely be obedient."
Princess Rui smiled, "The happiest thing about my mother in this life is that there are three of you. What will happen to your mother and your sister in the future? It depends on you two brothers."
Chen Xi nodded solemnly, "Okay, I will definitely work hard."
Princess Rui helped her son tidy up her collar, and then said, "Okay, go back and pack up your things. Don't bring too much. I will prepare the rest for you."
"Mother, who am I going to take away?" Chen Xi asked.
Princess Rui said, "No one will take care of you, your third sister will send someone to take care of you."
Chen Xi nodded when he heard this, thinking about what he would take away.
The next day, Emperor Cheng summoned Chu Xiuming into the palace and spoke in the study, "Love, please pack up your things in the past few days and go to the border town."
Chu Xiuming respectfully accepted the order and did not ask much.
Emperor Cheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Your dear, can you know what happened in Shu."
"I have heard something a little about it." Chu Xiuming spoke.
Emperor Cheng sighed, but he did not hide the matter of the Prince of Ying. After all, the one who hates Ying the most in this world is Chu Xiuming. When Ying Wang betrayed the defense map, many people died in the Chu family in order to expel these barbarians. Even Chu Xiuming's brothers were all killed in battle because of this.
Sure enough, the emperor saw Chu Xiuming's face change, "No wonder I have always felt that the barbarians did not do anything during this period."
At first Emperor Cheng didn't expect this. When he heard Chu Xiuming's words, he also realized that in the past few years, the border had been constantly rubbing, but now he is so peaceful, "What do you think of me?"
Chu Xiuming shook his head and said, "I haven't returned to the border town for more than a year."
Emperor Cheng said, "The stability of the border depends on my dear."
"I accept the order." Chu Xiuming said in a deep voice.
Emperor Cheng asked, "If you have any needs, please say it."
Chu Xiuming narrowed his eyes and said, "Your Majesty asks Princess Ruyang and her husband to return to the capital."
How could Emperor Cheng be willing to fail? Hearing this, "Mr. Zhongyi is also capable. I will issue an order to let Mr. Zhongyi listen to his beloved, don't worry."
Chu Xiuming frowned and said nothing, "That's the matter of food, supplies, war horses and horses."
When Emperor Cheng heard this, although he was a little reluctant, he still said, "Don't worry, these beloved ministers."
Chu Xiuming received the order and thanked him.
If Emperor Cheng has something to let Chu Xiuming do, then Chu Xiuming can naturally make a request. However, if Chu Xiuming brought food and grass as soon as he came up, he might be ruthless. So he would first mention something that Emperor Cheng didn't want to agree, and asked him to refuse and then take food and grass as well. Then Emperor Cheng would not be able to refuse again.
In fact, Chu Xiuming would do this because he thought of what his wife did on weekdays. If she wanted to do something, she would first act coquettishly and look for Madam Zhao, and would never agree to a Madam Zhao. After being rejected, she would then propose her real purpose with a grievance. Then, Madam Zhao would generally agree.
For example, if Shen Jin actually wants to eat yogurt, he usually asks for an ice bowl. After Madam Zhao refuses, she seems to be second-rate and says that when Madam Zhao eats yogurt, Madam Zhao will prepare it for Shen Jin.
Although Madam Zhao also knew Shen Jin's little trick, even if she was taking this trick, it was a tacit understanding between Shen Jin and Madam Zhao. Chu Xiuming had seen too much, so he used it directly today... I didn't expect that the effect was pretty good, but Emperor Cheng was not Madam Zhao. He didn't expect that Chu Xiuming's real purpose was food and grass. Even if Emperor Cheng took the initiative to ask Chu Xiuming to let Princess Ruyang and the others go back, Chu Xiuming would not agree.
After Chu Xiuming returned, he personally took people to pick up Shen Jin and Dongdong back to his house, and then began to prepare for leaving Beijing. He was originally planning to leave Beijing secretly, so he needed a light car and a simple trip. Now he had to leave openly, so there was no need for these. Shen Jin also sent people to buy a lot of things, especially medicinal materials.
After Emperor Cheng told the story of Chu Xiuming leaving Beijing, King Rui posted a post to invite Chu Xiuming's family to go to the mansion. Because Shen Qi was about to get angry, he did not come out to see the guests this time. Shen Jin came with Dongdong. Princess Rui went to the ring in her hand, held Dongdong in her arms for a while, and then handed it to Concubine Chen to see him. Shen Jin sat aside and smiled. Because she was well raised during the confinement period, she became fatter and had a white and red face. "Mother, I'll put Dongdong here and go see my sister."
"I'll go with you." Princess Rui smiled when she heard this.
Concubine Chen had raised a child by her side and didn't have anything to bring. She was watching Dongdong and King Rui's youngest son play on the bed together. Such a young child actually couldn't play much, but the two white and tender children lying together, which made people particularly like it.
Shen Jin responded, Princess Rui looked at Concubine Chen and said, "Sister Chen, let these two children be left to you to see."
Concubine Chen smiled and responded, "I am afraid I can't bear to see it alone, so why don't you let An Ning stay and help the boss." She had seen An Ning's skills, so she kept An Ning there, and both Concubine Chen and Shen Jin would be more at ease.
"Okay." Chen Jin said with a smile.
An Ning responded respectfully and stood beside the bed.
Seeing that the matter was arranged, Princess Rui nodded and walked to the yard where Chen Jin lived with Chen Qi. The delivery room and other things had already been all over. Princess Rui said, "Girl Jin, I will entrust Xier to you."
"Don't worry, mother." Chen Jin knew that Princess Rui asked Chen Xi to go with them. "I will take good care of my younger brother, but mother... really want to let my younger brother go to the battlefield?"
After all, there is no eye-catching sword. No matter how well Chu Xiuming arranged it, if something really happened, Chen Jin was afraid that King Rui and Princess Rui would blame them instead. Moreover, Chen Jin felt that Princess Rui might not have told Princess Rui about this.
Princess Rui also knew what Chen Jin said, but said, "The eagle always has to learn to fly. Even if something really happens, it's not your fault. This is Xier's own choice."
Chen Jin was actually a little hesitant. After all, although Princess Rui said that, it would be hard to say what she thought about at that time.
Princess Rui naturally understood and smiled and said, "Grand girl, wealth and honor are in danger. Although Xier is still young, she is also a boy. Men should stand up to the top. Otherwise, how can they become the pillar of the family in the future and how can they protect their wives and children?"
"Mother's wife." Chen Jin shouted.
Princess Rui said, "Do you know why I haven't told Xuan'er about marriage?"
Chen Jin shook his head honestly and asked tentatively, "Because it's not appropriate?"
"Because Xuan'er can't protect his wife and children." Princess Rui said, "But now it's OK, he has grown a lot."
For some reason, Chen Jin felt a little sour when he listened to Princess Rui's words.
Chen Jin responded, but Princess Rui stopped talking about this, just said, "In addition to Xier, my parents' children will come to the border town one after another in a while."
"Mother's wife..." Chen Jin didn't know what to say.
Princess Rui reached out and patted Chen Jin's hand, "Sometimes people's luck... forget it, it's meaningless to say this to you. When you go back and tell Chu Xiuming, you just say that people are the easiest to ignore. Sometimes the thing that is in front of you is that dark under the lamp is like this."
After saying that, regardless of Chen Jin, who was confused, he entered Chen Qi's courtyard. Chen Qi was leaning against the cushion. She looked better than when Prince Yongle Hou was just now. When she saw Princess Rui and Shen Jin, she asked, "Where is Dongdong?"
"Dongdong stays in the house." Princess Rui said, "You are not convenient now, so you haven't brought it."
"I want to take a look at things more," Chen Qi said with a smile, "Sister, I have someone prepare some things for you and send them to your house later. If you need anything else, please write a letter to know? Don't let yourself down."
"Yeah." Chen Jin responded without hesitation and said, "Don't worry, sister."
Chen Qi sighed a little and said, "I always feel like you're leaving just as you're about to come back."
"Sister, if you have the chance in the future, remember to come to me with your brother-in-law." Chen Jin held Chen Qi's hand and said, "I have prepared some things for the child, so I will send them to my sister first." After all, Chen Jin can't even participate in the child's third-year washing and full moon.
Chen Qi smiled and said, "Okay."
Chen Jin's dressing is very simple today, and he only wore a wooden bracelet on his wrist. Chen Qi noticed it at a glance, but he didn't see what wood it was. Chen Jin also noticed Chen Qi's eyes, smiled but did not talk about the bracelet. After all, Prince Yongle Hou is in Shu now, and sometimes he can't say it in front of Chen Qi.
Chen Qi didn't ask anything. After talking for a while, Princess Rui took Chen Jin away and asked Chen Qi to continue to rest.
In the Ruiwang study, Ruiwang looked at Chu Xiuming and said, "I will hand over my son to you."
"Don't worry, father-in-law." Chu Xiuming spoke.
Chen Xi stood aside and didn't say anything. King Rui coughed awkwardly, "By the way, Xier is young, and there are no eyes in the battlefield where the swords and guns are missing, so he won't go up."
"Father..." Chen Xi was about to speak when he saw King Rui glaring at him.
"I'll talk to your brother-in-law." King Rui said in a deep voice, "Stand on the side."
Chen Xi was still a little dissatisfied, but he didn't say anything else. Chu Xiuming smiled when he heard this, "Don't worry, father-in-law."
King Rui nodded with satisfaction and said, "You know, son-in-law, that Xuan'er is the prince of the royal family, and Xi'er still has no title..."
Chen Xi's face turned red, and King Rui was almost saying directly that he would not let him go to the battlefield, but he would have to make achievements. Chu Xiuming understood it and said, "Don't worry, father-in-law, son-in-law understand."
Sure enough, King Rui smiled and consciously protected his son, and let him make his military achievements. When he was fine in the future, he would go to his mother's side to have a chance, so he would get a title for his second son.
King Rui explained a few more words, and then asked Chu Xiuming and Shen Xi to contact each other with satisfaction. After leaving the study door, Chen Xi said, "Third brother-in-law, don't take my father's words seriously."
Chu Xiuming said after hearing this, "Do you feel you are underestimated?"
Chen Xi didn't say anything, Chu Xiuming patted Chen Xi on the shoulder and said, "There are no parents in the world who don't love their children. My father-in-law has done a lot for you."
If it weren't for the sake of his two sons, how could King Rui be willing to take risks? However, Chu Xiuming couldn't tell Chen Xi personally about these things, "Actually, you can go and chat with your mother-in-law."
Chen Xi nodded and said, "Mother told me to listen to my third brother-in-law and third sister."
Chu Xiuming responded, "I understand."
Princess Rui did not keep them for dinner in the mansion. After all, they were about to leave Beijing and there were still many things to do. In addition to the things prepared for them, Princess Rui also sent someone to send the luggage prepared for Chen Xi, but Chen Xi still stayed in Princess Rui's mansion.
Chen Xi was only allowed to pass by the day before Chu Xiuming and Shen Jin left. This was the first time Chen Xi left home. She was a little nervous and excited. However, when she was actually leaving Beijing, Chen Xi turned her head and looked at the city gate, but she felt a little more melancholy.
Chu Xiuming took care of this wife's brother-in-law and said, "I'll be back."
Chen Xi nodded and said, "Yes."
In the Rui Prince's Mansion, Princess Rui sat in front of the bronze mirror and looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and asked, "Xi'er and the others have already left the capital."
"If you go back to the princess, that's right." Cuixi said.
Princess Rui slowly let out a breath and nodded, "Let me be quiet."
"Yes." Cui Xi took the people down after hearing this and guarded outside the door.
Princess Rui opened the jewelry box, and some jewelry were neatly placed there, which were commonly used by Princess Rui. She looked at the magnolia hairpin inside. Although she placed this hairpin here, she had never worn it before. She reached out and took it out and gently stroked her fingers.
That year, she saw the boy wearing a brocade robe and smiling brightly, and she didn't recognize the taste of sorrow.
That year, she knew that when they grew up, she would marry this young man and when the love affair began.
That year, they made an appointment to go to the garden of the Prince's Palace. He stuffed this hairpin to her and said he wanted to marry her.
When the knowledgeable boy saw her, he blushed and stuttered. When he got married, he would give her a jade hairpin that he had carved by himself instead of the one in his hand. Only then did she learn that the boy saw the jewelry his brother prepared for his sister-in-law and said that he thought the jade color was suitable for her, so he asked for it with shamelessness.
But she didn't wait until the boy she wanted to marry, and she didn't even know where she should go to worship the boy.
Which of those burnt corpses is the boy she has been waiting for?
In fact, whether it is not recognized or not, at least in her memory, the boy is still wearing a brocade robe, rather than those who look beyond recognition.
She really doesn't care about King Rui's husband, because she cares. The boy she wants to wait for is no longer here.
In fact, she hadn't remembered these things for a long time, and even the boy's face was blurred. She just saw the wooden bracelet on Chen Jin's wrist. She thought that it was made by Chu Xiuming himself, so Chen Jin cherished it so much.
Princess Rui looked at the jade hairpin and chuckled. This smile was different from the usual smile. The corners of her eyes were slightly raised. She was not dignified or gentle enough, and she was full of spirit.
"When we get married, I will tell my brother that I will take you out of Beijing and we will travel to every place in the Apocalypse Dynasty."
"At that time, we went to the northwest to ride horses and went to the south of the Yangtze River to see the misty rain..."
"My sister-in-law said that she hopes that I can marry a close wife, that I want to be a responsible person, that I will protect my wife and children for the rest of my life, and that they will not suffer any grievances."
"I want to marry you. I like to look at you and smile. I am so proud. I will treat you well and make you happy for the rest of your life."
"My brother said, there will be no problem. Besides, I will protect you. Even if King Ying really comes, I will protect you. Even if you die, I will die in front of you."
Princess Rui put the hairpin back on, and she would never wait for the hairpin that belonged only to her in her life.
"Liar." Princess Rui whispered.
It was obvious that it was the last time she met. She still remembered the boy wearing silver armor and secretly climbing over the wall. She was afraid of the sky and the earth. She handed him the coat she made with her own hands. He smiled brightly and hugged her suddenly.
