Chapter 94
After Madam Zhen explained everything the Empress Dowager said clearly, Princess Rui asked, "I don't know what the second prince is doing now?"
Madam Zhen hesitated for a moment before saying, "The second prince is dead."
King Rui widened his eyes and looked at Madam Zhen in disbelief. The second prince had obviously been rescued. Madam Zhen said when he saw this, "The second prince died after returning to the capital secretly." But why did he die? Madam Zhen did not say anything, saying more, "It was because of illness."
This is exactly what Emperor Cheng said to the Empress Dowager, even the Empress does not know about this.
Princess Rui frowned and did not ask anything more. Prince Rui opened his mouth, but didn't know what to ask, but his face was pale and he said for a long time, "That's...that's the real son."
No one could give King Rui an answer unless he dared to ask Emperor Cheng. In the end, Madam Zhen left with the people from Kexianju. Princess Rui arranged for someone to warm the specially prepared things into the palace with a small charcoal furnace, and only said that the Empress Dowager would also taste the folk flavors. After seeing the dishes, the Empress Dowager's eyes flashed with regret and sadness, but she quickly calmed down her emotions. Even the little palace maid around her did not notice it. "Go and ask the emperor if you want to come and try them together. It seems that it's good. I will send these dishes to the Queen."
The dishes chosen by the Queen Mother are all light, suitable for the Queen to eat now.
The palace maid was arranged by Emperor Cheng to the Empress Dowager. In fact, the emperor didn't care much about the matters in the harem. After all, these people were arranged by Emperor Cheng.
Emperor Cheng did not come here, but she already knew what King Rui had given to the Empress Dowager, and even knew how many pieces there were in a plate of pastries. Seeing that there was no abnormality, she didn't care. Instead, the queen asked someone to help her into the Empress Dowager's harem. Because the second prince's life and death were unknown, she had lost weight now, and the queen's regular clothes felt a little empty when she wore them.
When he saw the queen, the queen mother quickly asked someone to help her sit down and asked, "But what's wrong? Didn't the imperial doctor ask you to rest more?"
The queen just smiled bitterly, "Mrs. Lao is worried."
The queen mother sighed slightly, "Don't say such despairing words, don't the imperial physician say that it's enough to raise it?"
The queen didn't say anything, "My son has no news yet, how can I rest in peace?"
The Empress Dowager's expression changed slightly, but she didn't say anything, but the Empress seemed to have seen something, and did not look like she did, but looked at the Empress Dowager's expression and asked, "Mother, tell me the truth, can't my poor son come back?"
"You..." the queen mother frowned and then said, "That's also the emperor's son. The emperor will definitely find a way to save him."
Who knew that when the queen heard this, she started crying. The queen frowned and said, "Queen, where are your rules?"
The queen looked up at the queen mother and said, "Mother, that's your grandson too."
The Queen Mother slowly breathed and said, "You all retreat."
This was said to the palace maids in the house. Some of them retreated directly, but some people looked at the queen. The queen's eyes flashed and she didn't say anything. Instead, the queen waved her hand, and all the people in the house retreated. The queen looked dark and said, "The queen is a good method."
The queen was not at all lustful and just said, "If the Queen Mother was not willing to hurt her mother-son relationship with His Majesty, how could she end up like this? Even the closest Madam Zhen was sent out of the palace?"
The Queen Mother didn't say anything. The Queen looked at the Queen Mother, and her expression was a distorted calm, and she said, "My mother, I just want you to tell me if my son... is he dead?"
"I don't know." The Queen Mother didn't speak.
The queen actually had an answer in her mind. In fact, the queen would notice these things. Later, after Emperor Cheng had a dispute with the empress dowager about King Rui, he sent out all the people around the empress dowager, and wanted to limit the empress dowager's rights in the harem, so the empress took over these things. The empress really took charge of the harem, and the news was naturally well-informed. Moreover, Emperor Cheng didn't care much about the matters in the harem, and the empress no longer stood out. The empress was the only master in the harem. Those people would naturally curry favor with the empress, and the empress learned a lot of clues. For example, last month, Emperor Cheng sent the imperial physician out of the palace, but it was not recorded...
There are also Imperial Hospital expenses for several medicinal materials... Many such inconspicuous small things were speculated by the Queen.
Today I will ask the Queen Mother, and it is also the Queen who wants to hold a glimmer of hope, but she is thinking too much, but the Queen Mother's answer made the Queen completely desperate.
Emperor Cheng has always kept a secret about the treasures in Shu, but when he sent his confidants, he had to explain a few words. The eunuchs who served in the palace looked inconspicuous, but sometimes they knew a lot. After the queen suspected, people started to inquire about this information, so they naturally knew, especially some people in the empress dowager were sent out, and the queen secretly caught people one by one and interrogated them severely. She knew the whole thing very well.
After Madam Zhen left, King Rui felt particularly bored. He didn't even take a few bites of the delicacies carefully prepared by Kexianju. After using some of the princess Rui, he asked the guards and servants in the mansion to give them a share.
King Rui was still holding the will in his room. When he saw Princess Rui, he said, "Leave this to you."
"Prince?" Princess Rui knew the value of this thing, but she didn't expect that King Rui would hand it over to her directly.
King Rui put the things in Princess Rui's hand and said, "You keep them."
Seeing that King Rui was serious, Princess Rui said, "Then these days, I will sew a hidden bag for the prince's underwear. Then the prince will hide this in the hidden bag."
King Rui nodded and asked, "The prince... is gone, is this still useful?"
"It's useful." Princess Rui lowered her eyes slightly and said, "With this, as long as it is used well, it can prove that Emperor Cheng's will was fake, and the things that Prince Ying has been saying for so long..." If the prince Ying's words that Emperor Cheng killed his father and brother were just speculated and there was no evidence, this will is the most favorable evidence.
King Rui gritted his teeth and said, "The matter of the jade seal... Where is the real jade seal? Do you think the queen of the mother know?"
"I'm afraid my mother doesn't know." Princess Rui sat beside King Rui and said softly, "If I knew, I would definitely hand it over to Emperor Cheng."
No matter how many there are, Emperor Cheng is the biological son of the empress dowager. When Emperor Cheng first ascended the throne, he was good to the empress dowager. If the empress dowager knew, how could he not tell Emperor Cheng? The jade seal is not this will, and it will have no effect on Emperor Cheng if he didn't take it out.
King Rui nodded and suddenly asked, "What if we leave, what should Qi'er do?"
"Does the prince really want to sit in that position?" Princess Rui's voice was soft, with a few questions.
King Rui pursed his lips but didn't say anything. If he didn't want to, it was a lie. He didn't think about it at the beginning, but when he found out that he was actually qualified to take the throne, how could he not be moved, especially because he was so close to the throne, as if he was within reach.
Princess Rui narrowed her eyes and poured tea for Prince Rui himself. She didn't say anything. Prince Rui seemed to have struggled several times and suddenly said, "Actually, I think... why can't I fight? Although... I can't guarantee that I am a wise king, at least... I'm not worse than Emperor Cheng and Prince Ying, right? Plus the assistance of my father-in-law and son-in-law..."
King Rui's voice became smaller and smaller because he thought it was really feasible! In fact, there were many times when King Rui could not understand Emperor Cheng's idea. If it were him, he would never attack the Yongning Hou and would treat him kindly. After all, he still had to guard the border, just like he wanted a donkey to leave, so he could not be hungry.
Princess Rui sighed slightly in her heart. She was afraid that King Rui would have such thoughts. One day, one day, one day, one day, and she had been with King Rui for so long, and she didn't want to watch King Rui seek death in the end.
Madam Zhen’s words were very attractive, but Princess Rui was more rational. The prince’s legitimate grandson was what everyone expected. There were also those old ministers and people like the Chu family who supported him. What advantages did King Rui have? He was the son of the late emperor, but the prince’s legitimate grandson was also the bloodline of the late emperor. And to be honest, the prince’s legitimate grandson was more orthodox.
What else? Ruiwang has no advantage at all.
The empress dowager's vision was not imperfect, but the premise was that there was no such person as the prince and grandson.
Princess Rui was also moved. If Princess Rui could really take the throne, then Princess Rui would be sure to hold her son to the position of crown prince, but... she was just moved.
However, Princess Rui did not talk about this matter at this time. When she really arrived at the border town, she could find a way to dispel Prince Rui's idea, so she just asked, "Prince, what should you do about Qi'er?"
"Ah?" King Rui was stunned for a moment before he realized. He had just asked Princess Rui about this, but was interrupted by Princess Rui. He raised his reaction and said, "Is there any way for the princess?"
Princess Rui shook her head.
King Rui frowned and said, "Can you let your son-in-law release him?"
"Your Majesty will not agree." Princess Rui spoke.
King Rui thought for a while and said, "Before we are about to leave, we will directly call our son-in-law and Qi'er back, knock it out and take it away." This method is particularly rogue, but it is very useful.
Princess Rui's eyes lit up and said, "Okay, I'll tell you to Qi'er that you can let the couple go home and live there for a while, and then you can take the person away."
King Rui responded, "Anyway, it's the throne of the Marquis of Yongning. If I really sit in that position, I will be granted the title at that time."
Princess Rui sighed slowly in her heart as she looked at Prince Rui's energetic appearance.
King Rui suddenly frowned and said, "By the way, you talk about the second prince's affairs... Did Emperor Cheng do it?"
"I don't know." Princess Rui said, "but I'm afraid it's my mother a little suspicious."
"The tiger poison does not eat the child, like this..." King Rui felt heartbroken. His biological son was still like this. His threatening younger brother, "The princess quickly packed up some things in the past few days and chose some trustworthy and useful people. We must leave early, thanks to the fact that most of the things have been sent to the border town."
Princess Rui lowered her eyes slightly and said, "Yes, but should you say hello to the third son-in-law in advance for this matter?"
"Well, it's better to let them prepare to respond." King Rui thought for a while and said.
Princess Rui looked at King Rui and said slowly, "Prince, I'm afraid we'll hide in that well for a while first."
"Huh?" King Rui looked at Princess Rui with some confusion.
Princess Rui explained, "If we leave directly, we will be discovered by Emperor Cheng soon. Naturally, we have to send troops to chase him. We can't escape. It's better to hide in the well for ten days and half a month, and then follow the pursuers, so that we can hide."
King Rui also understood and nodded, "What the princess said is, just do it."
"At that time, the prince will suffer some hardship, and it is not advisable to bring too many people. In addition to you and me, as well as your son-in-law and Qi'er, Cui Xi will take it with you and I, and the rest... I wonder if I can ask Kexianju to arrange four guards." Princess Rui spoke.
King Rui frowned and asked, "Can't the guards in our mansion do it?"
"They are guards, but they are not suitable to take us in a different costume." Princess Rui spoke.
King Rui thought for a moment and nodded, and suddenly asked, "What should they do?"
"I think it won't take long to come, Emperor Cheng should arrange for people to enter the mansion. Then, I'll send all the people in the mansion." Princess Rui knew very well that if they ran away, the people in the mansion would be implicated. However, according to Emperor Cheng's character, since the Empress Dowager had arranged people around him, how could they not arrange them around him?
Princess Rui thought for a while and said, "I'll send it to you in the past few days. You can go to the palace to ask Emperor Cheng and ask him to give him some people." This will make Emperor Cheng feel at ease.
"Yeah." King Rui responded.
In the border town, Chu Xiuming didn't know that King Rui and the others had already received the real will of the late emperor. He didn't expect that because of Emperor Cheng's suspicion, the fire broke out in his backyard. Although the matter in the palace was handled by the queen, the real person who was in charge of the family was the queen mother. Although the queen loved to take over power, she was devoted to her two sons. The queen was also a mother and had her own selfish intentions. When she knew that her son was dying and could not even be buried according to her identity, she was also angry.
However, because she has another son and two daughters, it has not erupted. She is unwilling to think about why her eldest son has no, and even dares to think about it. So she cares more and more about the retribution of this son who is still alive? But why is it not to repay her? Her son is so innocent. The death of those people has nothing to do with her son.
In fact, Emperor Cheng is really innocent when the second prince died. The second prince suffered a lot of pain and frightened when he was in Shu. He was a little uncomfortable at that time, but because he knew about the treasure, he was overjoyed and shocked and his health was inevitably a little bad.
After returning to the capital secretly, he could not show up for Emperor Cheng's plan. Emperor Cheng even promised that he would be appointed as the crown prince as long as the matter was successful. No matter whether it was to make up for the merits or the position of the crown prince, the second prince did not dare to expose it easily. However, he became seriously ill later, so he asked Emperor Cheng to tell Emperor Cheng that Emperor Cheng secretly arranged an imperial physician, but it was too late.
Although the death of the second prince has a certain relationship with Emperor Cheng, it was really not killed by Emperor Cheng, and even the second prince himself had to have a certain responsibility. However, because of Emperor Cheng's selfishness, after the death of the second prince, Emperor Cheng didn't know how to agree, so he arranged for someone to secretly send the second prince's body to Shuzhong, and then push the cause of the second prince's death to those anti-civilians or British princes, which would arouse public anger and the anger of the court officials.
After all, although Emperor Cheng was uncomfortable because of the second prince's death, he was more considering how to let the second prince's death wash away his dry cleaning and get more benefits. However, he also knew that this was a bit despicable. Because of the matter of King Rui, there was no one to discuss it. Now it was not only the empress dowager misunderstood, but the empress had a misunderstanding.
Emperor Cheng would not know that not long after the Empress returned from the Empress Dowager's harem, she asked someone to send a letter to Chengen Duke's Mansion and asked Chengen Duke's wife to enter the palace tomorrow.
When everyone in the capital is busy for their own purposes, the border town is particularly peaceful.
The happiest person in the general's mansion was not Chen Jin, but Daming was designated as Chu Chenhui's thing. He would never repeat the food he ate every day. Not only did Mama Zhao cook and cook some good food for him, Concubine Chen was also good at these, and even made teething cakes of different flavors. Not only did they taste good, but they looked cute. Even Chen Jin liked to take two pieces to eat for him for no reason, which made him cry from time to time to complain to Concubine Chen.
Concubine Chen was very clever and made a lot of clothes for Dongdong. At Shen Jin's suggestion, she made exactly the same clothes for the third brother's children. She looked particularly likable when she saw three children who were about the same clothes playing on the bed.
When Chu Xiuming received the news from Kexianju in the capital, it was almost the New Year. In the conference hall, Chu Xiuming handed the note to Chu Xiuyuan. It suddenly looked like a recipe, but it was the code word they agreed upon. After interpreting it, it told Chu Xiuming about the will in the hands of King Rui, as well as the meaning of the Queen Mother conveyed by Madam Zhen. Finally, it was written that Madam Zhen hanged herself after leaving Prince Rui's mansion.
Although Chu Xiuming used the same code when he contacted the Zhao family, it was different from this one, so it was explained to him by Manager Zhao. After hearing this, Zhao Duan's expression changed and he said, "My sister will never have such thoughts."
"Yeah." Chu Xiuming did not mean to doubt Princess Rui, because Princess Rui was smart enough. She knew that as long as Chu Xiu was far away, there would never be a possibility that Prince Rui would ascend the throne.
Zhao Duan would be nervous, but he was afraid that Chu Xiuyuan would misunderstand. Zhao Duan didn't care about the life and death of King Rui, but his sister was Princess Rui. Chu Xiuyuan looked at Zhao Duan and comforted him, "Don't worry, uncle."
Chu Xiuming also said, "Although my father-in-law is confused, but with my mother-in-law here, we don't need to worry about this, but we still have to arrange people to take them to the border town."
Zhao Duan calmed down a little, nodded and said, "It's all for the general to arrange it."
Chu Xiuming responded, already had plans in his heart, and asked, "Does Chen Xi and the others have any news?"
"I've already contacted me, Chen Xi and Zhao Jun are going back to the border town." Zhao Duan said.
Chu Xiuming said, "When the time comes, let Chen Xi take someone to pick him up."
Zhao Duan thought for a while, and felt it was appropriate, so he didn't say anything else. Chu Xiuyuan said, "By the way, Zhao Che came to me a few days ago and said he wanted to follow General Lin to patrol the defense."
Chu Xiuming frowned, and instead looked at Zhao Duan. Although he was a patrol, if he met a barbarian, there would still be a fight. Zhao Duan smiled and said, "As long as the general and the major general think it is appropriate, whether it is Zhao Jun or Zhao Che, they have to make their futures themselves."
"Does Xiuyuan think Zhao Che are suitable?" Chu Xiuming asked when Zhao Duan spoke.
Chu Xiuyuan thought for a while and said, "Actually, I think Zhao Jun is more suitable to follow General Lin to patrol the defense, but Zhao Che is not calm enough. It is better to let him follow Manager Yu to prepare for the transaction."
After Chu Xiuyuan finished speaking, Zhao Duan was stunned for a moment and did not speak.
"Yeah." Chu Xiuming responded. He had gradually handed over such a thing to Chu Xiuyuan. In fact, this was helpless. The princes of the Tianqi Dynasty were first brought by the emperor, and were exposed to court affairs and learned to deal with it little by little. However, Chu Xiuyuan did not have such an opportunity and did not have such time to study. When they succeeded, Chu Xiuyuan would soon take the throne. Chu Xiuming could naturally help Chu Xiuyuan, and those old ministers could also help Chu Xiuyuan. However, in this way, some ministers would inevitably develop ambitions and would also look down on Chu Xiuyuan, which was not conducive to the development of Tianqi.
Chu Xiuming has always let Chu Xiuyuan contact the things in the border town. Now he has given him the arrangement of manpower, which is also for him to train him so that he can know people and make good use of them in the future.
Chu Xiuming had already made a decision to accompany Shen Jin to travel around in five years. The five-year period means that Chu Xiuming could not be with Chu Xiuyuan for too long. It is impossible for Chu Xiuming to leave as soon as Chu Xiuyuan took the throne.
Chu Xiu saw Chu Xiuming agreeing, then looked at Zhao Duan and said, "Uncle, I want to let Zhao Che understand some of the customs of those foreign races in the mutual market first. And I found that he is very sensitive to numbers. Although the battlefield is good for military merits, it is a pity that Zhao Che's talent wasted. It's better to let him try first. If he really doesn't like it, it will be too late for us to exchange it for him."
Zhao Che is Zhao Duan's son. Of course, he also knows that his son has many clevernesses and a little erratic. He is particularly talented in numbers. If he can sharpen Zhao Che's personality, he can achieve great things in the future. Zhao Duan was surprised just now that Chu Xiuyuan had seen through his son after such a short time of time. With such an arrangement, both his vision and ability were excellent.
Although it can be said that Chu Xiuyuan has good talent, Chu Xiuming and others' efforts are indispensable, which makes Chu Xiuyuan grow so well.
"Just let the major general make the decision." Zhao Duan said.
Chu Xiuyuan nodded and the matter was settled.
"What should I do after King Rui comes?" Mr. Wang frowned and said.
The current situation is complicated enough. If King Rui also arrived at the border town, it would be even more troublesome.
Manager Zhao narrowed his eyes and said, "After my father-in-law comes, let Princess Ruyang and her husband die of illness."
Princess Ruyang and her husband Zhongyi, since they were sent by Emperor Cheng, were plotted against by Chu Xiuyuan, who had received the news first. Then the two were kept in captivity. Not only them, but also many ministers in the court sent by Emperor Cheng. Although these people were not a problem, Manager Zhao felt that he could not underestimate anyone, only dead people were the safest.
Zhao Duan also agreed, and General Manager Wang said, "It's true."
"Send Princess Ruyang back to Beijing." Chu Xiuming suddenly said, "The prince consort and the prince stay."
In the evening, Chu Xiuming and Shen Jin discussed this matter. At first, Chu Xiuming's opinion was like Manager Zhao. However, Shen Jin suggested sending Princess Ruyang back by himself, and keeping the son-in-law and Ruyang's children as hostages. Princess Ruyang naturally knows how to do it.
Even if Princess Ruyang doesn't care about her husband, she won't care about her children.
Chu Xiuming didn't even have to explain anything to Princess Ruyang. At that time, for the safety of her husband and children, she naturally knew what to do.
Even if Princess Ruyang betrays the border town by then, it doesn’t matter, because King Rui had already arrived at that time, and he would tear his face away from Emperor Cheng no matter what.
Chu Xiuyuan frowned and said, "Will Ru Yang submit?"
Chu Xiuming said, "Even if she told the situation of Emperor Cheng's border city, we will not lose anything." After all, Ru Yang didn't know if he wanted to say it, because she had no chance to know.
"That's right." Chu Xiuyuan thought for a while and said, "Then let's settle down."
Chu Xiuming nodded and said nothing.
"How will King Rui arrange it?" Manager Zhao asked bluntly.
Zhao Duan was not easy to speak at this time because King Rui was also his brother-in-law. However, seeing that these people did not avoid him talking about King Rui and Princess Rui, Zhao Duan was relieved.
"Living in the yard that my wife had cleaned up some time ago." Chu Xiuming said, "Everything will be as usual."
"Do you want to tell King Rui about the Major General?" asked General Manager Wang.
Chu Xiuming looked at Chu Xiuyuan, "You make your own decision."
"Yes." Chu Xiuyuan responded and said, "It's better to treat him with sincerity."
In fact, there is another point: It is good for them to dispel King Rui earlier. If King Rui thinks about it for too long, he will inevitably become obsessed with it and will hurt his affection.
After hearing this, Zhao Duan said, "I will talk to my sister and brother-in-law." The implication is that he will convince King Rui to be a target, so that Chu Xiuyuan can better hide behind him, but the early Emperor Cheng and Prince Ying knew about it.
If Chu Xiuming has a King of Ai, then Emperor Cheng will be more likely to be taboo, and the prince of Ying will be happy to see it. However, if Chu Xiuming has a prince and grandson, then the situation will be different, and there is no room for improvement.
"Then I'll trouble my uncle." Chu Xiuyuan said.
Zhao Duan shook his head, "These are all matters."
Seeing that the matter was decided, Chu Xiuming continued, "Is there any news from the Prince of England?"
"The news has not been sent back yet." General Manager Wang spoke.
Chu Xiuming nodded, thought for a while and said, "Xuyuan, strengthen the vigilance around the border town. The barbarians have been quiet for so long, and I'm afraid they will take big actions."
"Yes." Chu Xiuyuan responded, "Then should we take the initiative?"
"Wait for the next year." Chu Xiuming said, "At that time, you will face the enemy in front of the border town, and let General Lin and others lead people to detour in three directions..." Chu Xiuming pointed to the map and started talking.
Zhao Duan and the others also stood up and stood around the table, looking at the places Chu Xiuming pointed out.
"Brother, where are you?" Chu Xiuming asked after he finished making arrangements.
Chu Xiuming pointed at the location of the mountain range, "If there is really any abnormal movement here, I will take some people over, if not..." Thinking of the child, Chu Xiuming narrowed his eyes and said, "Then create some."
After all, only the Prince of England knew where the child was hidden. If there was no movement at all, it would only put them in a disadvantageous position.
Since it has been decided, a few people started to discuss the plan based on the improvement.
Zhao Duan frowned and suddenly asked, "Then if the prince of the British agrees to return the child, then who will go?"
In fact, they all thought of this problem. Before Chu Xiuming could speak, Manager Zhao said, "Just go down."
Mr. Wang frowned and thought for a while and said, "Actually..."
Chu Xiuming looked at General Manager Wang, and Zhao Duan also thought that Manager Zhao was not the best candidate, Chen Jin was the most suitable, followed by Chen Xi... and even Princess Rui.
However, Zhao Duan was not easy to speak out for these three people. Women and children? Who would let them take risks? According to their relatives and alienations, Zhao Duan naturally did not want his sister and nephew to take risks, but he could not directly say that he would let Chen Jin go. No matter what it was for, Chen Jin called himself uncle. The prince's grandson even called himself uncle in view of Chen Jin's face.
It was wrong for him to ask what he asked just now, but he didn't react for a while. He figured it out now, so he naturally didn't want to say anything.
Manager Zhao naturally thought of this and then took the initiative to accept the order. But if Manager Zhao went there, the situation would be a bit dangerous. Manager Wang said, "I'll go."
Chu Xiuming spoke, "Let's talk when the news of those spies comes."
Everyone nodded and stopped arguing.
After the discussion was over, Chu Xiuming and Chu Xiuyuan walked towards the study room. Chu Xiuyuan said, "Brother, is there something difficult? Why don't you let me go."
Chu Xiuming spoke, "It's okay, now these are all assumptions."
"If you weren't 70% or 80% sure, you wouldn't have been like this." Chu Xiuyuan said with certainty, "There is a dangerous place on the other side of the mountain."
Chu Xiuming responded and did not deny it, "Defend the border town."
The two of them entered the study room, and Chu Xiuyuan asked, "Brother, can someone else go?"
Chu Xiuming just smiled and said, "I have four points to go and live. Others may not even have four points to go. If something really happens to me, remember to divide the soldiers into..."
"Brother!" Chu Xiuyuan interrupted Chu Xiuming's words. Although he was just Chu Xiuming's cousin, in his heart, Chu Xiuming was not just a cousin, but Chu Xiuming and Chu Xiuyao took him to play, and they were also teaching him to learn martial arts. Later, when something happened to Chu Xiuyao, he was left with only Chu Xiuming, and he cared even more about it.
No one knows more clearly how much the Chu family sacrificed for Tianqi and how much they sacrificed for their father and son. He saw it and remembered it in his heart. He was 40% sure? It was less than half, and Chu Xiuyuan could not accept it.
Chu Xiuming didn't say anything, but just looked at Chu Xiuyuan calmly. Chu Xiuyuan's eyes gradually turned red. Chu Xiuming poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of Chu Xiuyuan. After Chu Xiuyuan drank it, Chu Xiuming continued, "Divide all the soldiers into three parts, let General Lin guard the border, General Jin is prepared..."
Because he is only 40% sure, Chu Xiuming has explained what might happen after he is gone. "The three generals Lin, Wu and Jin are trustworthy, but General Lin is better at defending the city than chasing wars. General Jin has a little impatient temper, while General Wu is brave and resourceful, but he has a little bit of blood. You need to add more constraints when he is bloodthirsty."
Chu Xiuyuan nodded and wrote down. Chu Xiuming continued, "You need to pay more attention to Emperor Cheng and Prince Ying." Although Prince Ying seems to have the upper hand now, it is a bit too weak. If he hides in the dark, it will be even more difficult to deal with. However, he is now a little too impatient. But it is also a blessing. When Chu Xiuming and the others have already started a war with Emperor Cheng, the prince Ying will bring people to appear again. That is the biggest threat. "But you have to let the prince Ying jump over the wall. Regarding the prince Ying's body... These clues from time to time, there are several prestigious civil servants in Shuzhong and other places who have been invited away, but have not returned yet."
"I understand." Chu Xiuyuan said.
Chu Xiuming nodded, "After all, Emperor Cheng has been the king for more than 20 years and has been firmly on the throne for more than 20 years."
Chu Xiuyuan felt a stern, "Yes."
Chu Xiuming slowly breathed and said, "After I set off, you will have someone send a letter to the Prince of Ying, and send a message to Emperor Cheng five acres. I will write the content of the letter in advance. The Prince of Ying will mention the matter of that child, whether it is to delay time or otherwise. If your sister-in-law really wants to go, you don't have to stop it."
"Brother!" Chu Xiuyuan looked at Chu Xiuming.
Chu Xiuming shook his head and said, "She is a proper person."
Chu Xiuyuan said, "Actually... Actually..." Chu Xiuyuan wanted to say that Chen Xi and Princess Rui were OK, but he couldn't say it when he was right. After all, this was too selfish and despicable.
Chu Xiuming looked at Chu Xiuyuan and said in a deep voice, "Xiuyuan, for the king, no matter how capable he is, remember to be open and upright, and do not do to others if he has no desires."
"Yes." Chu Xiuyuan lowered his head and said.
Chu Xiuming spoke, "If there is anything difficult at that time, you can ask Princess Rui for advice."
Chu Xiuyuan nodded and said, "I understand."
"Even if it is possible, entrust the border town to Princess Rui." Chu Xiuming looked at Chu Xiuyuan and said in a deep voice.
Chu Xiuyuan said, "Brother, don't worry."
Chu Xiuming nodded then, and his expression on his face became much softer. He stood up and patted Chu Xiuyuan on the shoulder and said, "I'll leave it to you."
"Okay!" Chu Xiuyuan replied subconsciously.
Chu Xiuming responded and walked out. Chu Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment and suddenly reacted and said, "Brother, today's business has not been handled yet."
"A gentleman respects his promise." Chu Xiuming walked out without looking back, "You have just agreed to it, and you will leave the business for this period of time to you.
