Chapter 388
Chapter 388
Even if Yu Xiang is not for himself, for Yu's family, he has to support and respect the king as the emperor.
King Jing had a lot of things to do and couldn't pick up Yuchen and the children in person, so he sent his confidant He Xinyi to pick them up. No one really knows about that place except him and the butler.
Yuchen took the child to hide for half a month. She could resist it herself, but the child couldn't stand it. Living in this small house, rice noodles and other things are fully prepared. But Zhou Yan was born with the best food and clothing. How could he bear the rough food and drink now? He fell ill within a few days. He kept drinking medicine, and even Yuchen lost a lot of weight.
If He Xinyi hadn't come, Yuchen would have taken the child out to see an imperial physician, but the doctor's medical skills were really not that good.
After returning to the palace, Yuchen immediately sent someone to find Imperial Physician Le. Fortunately, the changes in the capital did not implicate Imperial Physician Le, and Imperial Physician Le rushed over when he was summoned.
It wasn't until Zhou Yan's situation improved that Yuchen had the mind to pay attention to other things.
Nanny Gui told Yuchen the news she had received with a smile on her face: "Princess, the lord not only has the support of the Yu family, but also the support of Taining Hou Fu and others. Even Yan Wushuang has followed the lord. , You finally made it through." I don't know, after hearing this, I thought how much wronged Yuchen had suffered before!
Hearing this, Yuchen didn't know why he thought of the words of Lord Heshou at this moment. He Shou said that if she hadn't stepped in, the prince would have been enthroned as emperor long ago, and she would have become a queen too: "Mother, do you believe in past and present lives?"
Nanny Gui let out a hiccup and said, "Princess, what's the matter?"
Yuchen looked at Zhou Yan who was lying on the bed, and said in a low voice: "He Shou said that she changed the fate of the Ninth Prince. The Ninth Prince died at the hands of an assassin. And the prince later became the emperor. My two children and I , everything is safe and sound." Now the prince will aspire to the throne, and she will be the mother of the world, but her Xia'er will never come back.
Nanny Gui said: "Princess, if the princess knows that you miss her so much, she will be very happy." It can be said that Zhou Xia's accident is Yuchen's biggest setback so far.
Seeing that Yuchen was in grief, Nanny Gui hurriedly changed the subject: "Madam, Beauty Wang was humiliated and killed herself, Beauty Li was taken away by thieves, and the second Princess was frightened and had a fever." The concubine who is dead is dead, and the one who is disabled is disabled.
Yuchen was silent for a moment, and after a while he said: "If the second princess was taken away at that time, maybe she would be fine." In fact, Yuchen didn't want to take the second princess away at that time. The child is too young, and it would be a big trouble if it caught people's attention by crying. Besides, the housekeeper didn't suggest bringing the child, so Yuchen didn't say anything. But now she is sad to hear that the child is gone. After all, it is a small life!
Nanny Gui comforted and said: "Princess, this is not your fault, the prince will not blame you. It is also fortunate that I followed the housekeeper out of the palace at that time, otherwise I don't know what will happen now." If there is a stain on the reputation , the princess will definitely not be able to be a queen anymore.
Yuchen said suddenly: "Nurse, do you think I am incompetent as a wife?" She used to blame King Gou Jing for being too loyal and diligent, and she didn't realize that she was wrong until today. Loyalty and diligence are the protective qualities of a husband. Behind the scenes, her husband had recruited so many people, but she didn't know anything about it.
Nanny Gui hurriedly said: "What is the concubine talking about? Isn't the lord afraid that you will be worried?" Besides, a woman shouldn't have bothered about the front yard in the first place.
Yuchen laughed at himself, and said: "Why are you worried about me? It should be because I'm in the way! They are husband and wife, but I don't know anything." This person, of course, refers to Yuxi. Yuxi can handle the government affairs in the Northwest, so it can be seen that Yunqing will not hide anything from her; and she,
But he doesn't even know what the person next to him is thinking.
Nanny Gui said: "Princess, you can't think that way. Since ancient times, this woman should be at home with her husband and children, and the fourth aunt's nǎinǎi is a different kind. Moreover, the behavior of the fourth aunt's nǎinǎi is also criticized."
Yuchen smiled wryly, she was not jealous of Yuxi being in power, but jealous of marrying a good husband who treats her sincerely. King Jing didn't let her know about these things, not so much because he was afraid that she would know and worry, but because he couldn't believe that she was guarding against her. Otherwise, how could there be no clues. Yuchen sighed a little: "Speaking of which, Yuxi is also luck!" Concubine Song also married Yuxi to Yunqing because she believed the rumors outside that Yunqing was a bloodthirsty person, but she didn't expect , Yun Qing would be a peerless good man.
Nanny Gui thought to herself, at first she thought that Yuxi would be a disaster, but it was as it should be. In fact, my own princess is doing very well, at least among the noble ladies in the capital, there are few people who can compare to her, but what this person is most afraid of is comparison. Besides, my princess has always been the proud daughter of heaven, but now she is being compared by a younger sister who is inferior in everything, how can she balance her heart.
Shiqin walked in and said, "Princess, the housekeeper is asking to see you." Jing Wang is on the throne, and the number of people in Jing Wang's mansion naturally also increased.
When Yu Chen heard Yu Xiyu invite her into the palace, he frowned and said, "The empress invited me into the palace? Did you tell me why?"
The butler shook his head and said, "The queen didn't say anything."
Yuchen frowned and said, "Please come in the messenger!" In the past, even if the child was sick and the queen summoned her, she would have to enter the palace. But the situation now is completely different from before, and she doesn't need to worry. Besides, it's a mess outside now, and the palace is probably in peril, so she'd better stay in the palace for safety.
The housekeeper didn't think there was anything wrong with Yuchen's words. Today is different from the past, and it is understandable that my princess does not want to go to the palace.
This time it was the Queen's confidant Jin Nai who came.
Yuchen said: "Yan'er is sick, I have to take care of him and I can't leave, please tell the emperor's wife." Above words, you can't neglect.
Nanny Jin knew this would be the result, but she had another purpose. Nanny Jin took out a letter from her sleeve: "Princess, the empress asked me to pass this letter to the concubine, please have a look at it."
Nanny Gui looked at Yuchen and saw Yuchen nodding her head. She stepped forward to take the letter and opened it. Seeing that there was nothing special written in the letter, she only said that she missed Yuchen very much and hoped that the two of them could meet. Yu Xiyu is not a fool, so important things should be said face to face, where can she write them in a letter.
Yuchen didn't give an answer, but said: "After a while, Yan'er recovers from illness, and I will go to visit the emperor's wife again." Before going to see the queen, she must first ask King Jing, she doesn't know what King Jing is. The king's plan cannot be decided by himself.
Nanny Jin is also a experienced person, and she knew that she would return in vain if she came here today.
Yuchen asked the butler, "What happened outside?" Yu Xiyu was a smart person, so it was impossible for him not to know that Zhou Xuan would not be able to ascend to a high position. No matter how King Jing is, it is impossible to kill his nephew, at least not now. In this situation, Yu Xiyu still wanted to see her so eagerly, something must have happened that she didn't know about.
The butler was silent for a while, and said: "Yan Wushuang killed all the members of the Song family, not even the baby. After killing them, they set a fire again, and the fire has not been extinguished until now."
Yuchen's face turned pale, and he asked, "It's too cruel to not even let the child go." I used to know that Yan Wushuang was a very cunning person, but I didn't know that this person was so bloodthirsty.
Nanny Gui was stunned, and said, "No wonder the empress wrote to the concubine!" She was afraid that Yan Wushuang would not let Zhou Xuan off, so she asked her concubine for help.
King Jing met Yu Xiang, got Yu Xiang's support, and summoned Tai Ning Hou and the second master of the Lu family who supported the imperial power. Marquis Tai Ning and Lord Lu Er were originally imperial factions, and now King Jing intends to win over them, so they naturally support King Jing.
With the support of these people, the capital quickly stabilized.
The youngest son told Han Jianming the information he had found out, and said, "Master, you will ascend the throne after respecting the king for three days." In extraordinary times, do extraordinary things. Now that the situation is critical, King Jing naturally has to ascend the throne quickly, so that he can preside over the overall situation in a legitimate manner.
Han Jianming said: "The speed is fast enough. I just don't know what agreement King Jing and Yan Wushuang reached?" What method did King Jing use to get Yan Wushuang to submit?
The third son shook his head, where did he get such a secret: "Master, not only Yan Wushuang and the Yu family support the emperor, but also Marquis of Taining, Marquis of Changping, General Zhennan, Commander of the Forbidden Army, etc., as well as generals of the three armies in the suburbs of Beijing. Everyone respects the king."
Han Jianming said the same thing as Yu Xiang back then: "If King Jing was the one who was in power back then, it must be a different scene now."
The third son, however, had a different idea: "Master, does the master have to go to the northwest? King Jing has always been kind and cherishes talents. Master, you are so talented, King Jing will definitely use you."
The third son actually didn't understand Han Jianming's decision. In the capital, Han Jianming is the hereditary prince of the country. Once he goes to the northwest, his title will definitely be cut. But in the northwest, the Han family is just the natal family of the fourth daughter's nanǎinǎi, and their status in the capital is very different.
Han Jianming shook his head and said: "Now the world is in chaos, and it is impossible to clean up this mess. Besides, Yan Wushuang is unpredictable and cannot conspire." At the beginning, Duan Yushi's family was killed because of Yan Wushuang. Wushuang lost his life, but Yan Wushuang didn't even treat Duan's orphans well. If such a person sincerely assists King Jing, that would be a joke! Furthermore, if he stays in the capital, King Jing will not only not reuse him, but will use him to deal with Yuxi. Rather than walking on thin ice in the capital with an empty title, it is better to go to the northwest. Leaving aside how much he has achieved, once he arrives in the northwest, he no longer has to worry about the safety of his family.
Of course, the most important thing is that Han Jianming feels that if he goes to the northwest, he will make a difference, unlike in the capital where he is dragged down by his family. Just this thought, he'll never say it. (to be continued)
