422, remove the fuel from the bottom of the cauldron
"Madam, the people sent to fetch the young lady are back." The maid outside the door bowed and reported.
Mrs. Chun Anbo didn't think much and said quickly: "Mingxiang is back? Let her in quickly."
The maid looked up at her with some embarrassment and whispered: "Madam, the young lady has not come back?"
"What's going on?" Mrs. Chun'anbo's face darkened slightly when she heard this, and she frowned and said, "Let him come in and answer."
After a while, the steward who was sent to pick up Luo Mingxiang from Luo's house hurried in. Before he could say anything, Mrs. Chun Anbo asked: "Why didn't Mingxiang come back with you? You didn't tell her about Zhaolin.
Something happened?"
The steward hurriedly said: "In reply to Madam, I have already said it. It's just that the young lady seems to be not doing well in the Luo family. Madam Luo said that the doctor asked the young lady to rest in bed and not to move around easily. Madam Luo was afraid of scaring the young lady, so she ordered the young lady to
Come back first to see how the prince is doing, and then go over and report."
Mrs. Chun Anbo was a little unhappy, but she had to give up when she thought that Luo Mingxiang was pregnant now.
After thinking about it, Lady Chun'an said: "That's it."
The steward glanced at Xu Zhaolin who was lying on the bed and asked, "Madam...what should I tell the Luo family when I go there?"
Mrs. Chun'anbo waved her hand and said: "No need, I have already sent someone to the Luo family." She asked someone to go to the Luo family to ask the Luo family for help in hiring a famous doctor. The Luo family would naturally know about Zhaolin's situation.
"You go down first." Mrs. Chun Anbo frowned and whispered: "Why did Mingxiang get sick at this critical moment? She didn't stay at home well even though she was pregnant. During this time, she went to Luo every day.
Why are you running home?"
Xu Zhaolin was in pain and upset and didn't want to listen to her nagging. He covered his forehead with his intact hand and frowned: "Mom, the Luo family is busy with the marriage with the Su family. Didn't you also agree to let Mingxiang return to her parents' family?"
Mrs. Chun'anbo was silent. It was indeed she who agreed and even persuaded her daughter-in-law to return to her parents' home more often. After all, Luo Mingxiang was not the biological daughter of the Luo family, so she naturally hoped that her relationship with the Luo family's father and son would be better.
But she couldn't find anyone when she was needed, and she still felt uncomfortable.
"Madam, someone is here from the old lady. Is the prince awake? How is his injury?" Another maid asked outside the door.
Mrs. Chun'anbo took a breath and said: "Go and reply, just say that the prince is awake. The old lady is not feeling well, so don't bother her and come here. Wait until the prince is better before going over to pay your respects to the old lady."
"Yes." The maid respectfully excused herself. Mrs. Chun'anbo looked at her son and sighed, saying, "You said...what did you do to run out at this critical moment? Your grandmother just came out to interrogate you in person.
Fortunately for the people around me, I didn't let him say anything he shouldn't have said. The old lady was so anxious that she got dizzy again, so I persuaded her to go back. I told you before, that bitch
If you keep it, it will be a disaster, and you will end up early..."
"Mom!" Xu Zhaolin interrupted her, raised his head and glanced at the door for a few times before lying back down again.
Mrs. Chun Anbo also realized that she had made a mistake and had to swallow the words that came to her lips.
Although this is the courtyard of the Xu family and her son, there are quite a few people from the Luo family in this courtyard now. If the Luo family listens...
Xu Zhaolin lowered his voice and said: "Yu Niang has been with me for several years, and now she has a child. How can I bear it..."
Mrs. Chun Anbo's expression also softened, and she sighed helplessly, "Why do you think you just..."
Although she could be ruthless to the woman outside, she could not be ruthless to her own grandson. However, this was a hidden danger after all, and she could not allow herself not to think too much about it.
In the Regent's Palace, Luo Junyao was greeting Xu Zhaolin's eight generations of ancestors.
Xie Yan sat and read the memorial while listening to her crisp scolding, which was very energetic and could not help but smile a little, without appearing to be disturbed at all.
When Luo Junyao finally stopped, he walked over with a cup of tea and said, "Aren't you thirsty? Take a sip of tea to moisten your throat."
Luo Jun shook his head and took a sip from his hand, then raised his head and looked at him and said, "You said the person named Xu is not a scumbag?"
Xie Yan casually put the tea cup on the table and said with a smile: "To have the princess scold you from yesterday to today, it is obvious that you deserve death."
Luo Junyao then hummed with satisfaction. Xie Yan put his hands on her shoulders and said, "Don't make yourself angry because of that kind of popularity. I heard from Ling Lan that you and Jinxing did some robbery on the road today?"
After hearing what he said, Luo Junyao remembered something, lowered his head and took out a bunch of things from his sleeve pocket and threw them on the table.
"Xu Zhaolin's stuff is disgusting!"
Xie Yan glanced at it casually and saw a few banknotes, broken silver, and jade pendants and hairpins.
"It can also be exchanged for some money. The princess's trip is not a loss at all." Xie Yan said.
Luo Junyao poked him, "Do you really think I'm a robber?"
Xie Yan pinched her slender fingers soothingly and said: "What you did today can be regarded as draining the firepower from under the cauldron and completely blocking Xu Zhaolin's future path. There is no need to take this kind of person to heart."
Luo Jun shook his eyes and Xie Yan smiled lightly and said: "Chun'an Bo Mansion is just an ordinary lord. Although Xu Zhaolin is the prince of Chun'an Bo, since the previous dynasty abolished the lord, his achievements in this dynasty are only third-level. In the future, he will only have one gift at most.
Zizhi Shaoyin, the title of the Xu family is over in his generation. Therefore, he must take the imperial examination and become an official. If he makes great achievements in the future, the title of Chun'an Bo Mansion may be continued."
In the later stages of each dynasty, clan nobles were everywhere, and wasting money became a burden to the country. Therefore, both Dongling and Dasheng in the previous dynasty deliberately suppressed the number of clan nobles, and the emperor of this dynasty was even more harsh on the clan nobles.
Luo Junyao tilted his head slightly and thought for a while, and said somewhat clearly: "If he can't take the imperial examination, will the Chun'an Palace not pass the title to him?" In fact, it is not a title. Zi Zhi Shaoyin is a civil servant who was favored by the court.
Lord, this is the last grace for these meritorious disciples.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! If you cannot obtain a title or a high-ranking official by your own ability after this generation, you will have to become an ordinary official or even a commoner without a title.
Therefore, the Xu family has focused on cultivating Xu Zhaolin over the years, just to enable him to successfully enter the court and become an official. If he cannot make contributions, no one in a place like Shangyong will care about a third-grade civil servant lord. If he still has a real job
An official position is the icing on the cake. If it is only this, it is not as useful as a powerful civil servant from the fifth rank.
"Will the Xu family change the heir apparent?" Luo Jun raised his eyebrows and asked.
Xie Yan said: "This is inevitable. Unless the Luo family is willing to come forward to support him, it will naturally be very different."
Luo Junyao rolled his eyes. The Luo family was crazy to support him. Now the Luo family just wants to add insult to injury.
Xie Yan patted her vest and said: "That's it. Once the eldest girl and Xu Zhaolin reconcile, Xu Zhaolin will be helpless. Unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Unless he dares to fight on the battlefield and achieve military exploits." Xie Yan said.
Luo Junyao laughed mockingly. Even if he dared, it would be useless. Xu Zhaolin's hand was broken. From now on, it would be difficult to even hold a pen, let alone a knife.
What's more, she didn't think Xu Zhaolin had the courage.
How many people have fought in ancient times, unless he is not afraid of death.
"He won't hold on to my eldest sister, right?" Luo Junyao suddenly became wary.
Xie Yan said: "There's no need to worry. Do you think the Luo family can't solve this problem?"
Luo Junyao laughed when he thought about it. If his father and elder brother couldn't even solve this little problem, then they would have been in vain for so many years in charge of the Dingguo Army.
"Princess, someone has come to the Chun'an Bo Mansion." The steward outside the door reported.
Luo Junyao turned back and looked out the door, "Chun'an Bo's Mansion? What are they doing at the Regent's Mansion?"
The steward held a letter in his hand and said respectfully: "Princess Qi, someone from Chun'an Bo Mansion said that their heir apparent injured his hand. I heard that there is a miracle doctor in our house. I would like to ask the prince and princess for help. Please ask for the miracle doctor."
Go and have a look.”
Luo Junyao raised his eyebrows and said, "That's unfortunate. Doctor Xue went back to his hometown to celebrate the New Year and hasn't come back yet."
This is not Luo Junyao's deliberate excuse. In the words of Divine Doctor Xue, he has already done everything that can be done to treat the Empress Dowager's illness. No matter what, he can't turn things around. Now that the Empress Dowager is watched by many imperial doctors in the palace, Divine Doctor Xue can't do anything.
No need to exert any effort. I am not in a hurry to come back this time. I am indeed not in Shangyong at this time.
After hearing this, the steward stopped sending the post in and bowed: "I understand, I will go back to Chun'an Bo Mansion."
In Chun'anbo's Mansion, Mrs. Chun'anbo's face became increasingly bleak after hearing the report from the steward sent to the Regent's Mansion.
"How could it be such a coincidence? Is the miracle doctor really not here?"
The steward said: "Madam, I heard that the miracle doctor is from Bingzhou and went back to celebrate the New Year a few years ago. Moreover, the miracle doctor is already very old. If he had come back after the first month, he would not be in Shangyong now anyway."
Mrs. Chun'anbo's face darkened, and a doctor sitting outside raised his head when he heard this and said: "Mrs. Xu, it is true that Divine Doctor Xue is not in Shangyong. I heard that he will not come back until March. The son's injury is serious.
Can’t wait until then.”
Mrs. Chun Anbo quickly stood up and walked outside, lowering her voice and saying: "Mr. Luo, the child's injury..."
Doctor Luo sighed, shook his head and said: "Madam, let me tell you the truth, my son's injury... even if Divine Doctor Xue is here, there will be no other results. Unless he really has a panacea that can revive human flesh and bones,
But if this is really the case..." Dr. Luo shook his head and did not finish, but Mrs. Chun Anbo understood what he meant.
If Doctor Xue really had such ability, how could the Empress Dowager still be lying in the palace just hanging her breath?
Mrs. Chun Anbo gradually became desperate. This Imperial Physician Luo was invited by the Luo family. His medical skills were among the best in the Imperial Hospital, especially specializing in trauma. Apart from him, the diagnoses of the previous two doctors were average.
No two.
Do you really want to see your most promising son ruined like this?
Mrs. Chun Anbo's eyes gradually turned red. Doctor Luo stood up and said: "Madam, it's better to discuss it with your family early. If the prince's injury is treated early, he might be better. If it takes a long time..."
"Thank you, Imperial Physician Luo. Please sit down for a moment, Imperial Physician Luo. I will go and discuss this with my family."
Imperial Physician Luo was not in a hurry, "Madam, please excuse me."
Not to mention how the Xu family was in an uproar because of Xu Zhaolin's incident. In the evening, the Xu family sent someone again to ask Luo Mingxiang to go back. They said that if the doctor wanted to cut open Xu Zhaolin's flesh and take out the bone fragments inside, he should ask the young lady to go back.
It would also make the prince feel at ease.
The Xu family has obviously accepted the fact that Xu Zhaolin's hand is really useless.
Naturally, the Su family was unwilling to let Luo Mingxiang go back, but Luo Mingxiang held her mother back.
Luo Mingxiang whispered a few words to Mrs. Su in private, and then returned to Chun'an Bo's Mansion with the steward's servants who came to pick her up.
There was already a haze in Chun'an Bo's mansion, and Luo Mingxiang noticed the unusual atmosphere as soon as he walked in.
In the past, Luo Mingxiang always felt that the whole house of Chun'an was harmonious. It was not known how much better it was than the chaotic situation of the Luo family before his father and two brothers came back.
Only when something happened today did we realize that it wasn't that the people in Chun'an Bo Mansion were naturally harmonious, but because they didn't have much capital to cause trouble in the past.
Xu Zhaolin was the eldest son of the Chun'an Bo Mansion. He was highly regarded by the Chun'an Bo couple and the old woman. His talents and abilities were higher than others, and he married the Luo family.
So what else does the rest of the Xu family have to worry about?
Naturally, I have to flatter her, the royal wife, at every turn.
After all, as long as the Luo family does not fall, when Xu Zhaolin takes charge of the Xu family in the future, she, the daughter of the Luo family, will be able to take care of them better than Xu Zhaolin, the head of the family.
As soon as Luo Mingxiang stepped into the hall, many eyes fell on her.
"Father, mother." Luo Mingxiang lowered his eyes and walked slowly into the hall, as if he didn't notice everyone's gaze, "Mom was afraid that I would worry, so she just told me that something happened to Zhaolin. What happened?"
Mrs. Chun'anbo said quickly: "Mingxiang, you are still pregnant, don't worry." Now that this daughter-in-law has future grandchildren, she is already her son's most important talisman. Mrs. Chun'anbo looked at Luo Mingxiang's
His eyes became more and more eager and concerned.
Luo Mingxiang leaned on the girl who was supporting him and asked hurriedly: "What happened? Just..."
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, brother is fine." A young man sitting aside said, "It's just...I'm afraid my hands won't be able to write anymore in the future."
"What?!" Luo Mingxiang staggered slightly, leaning on the girl and looking even weaker.
"Method!" Mrs. Chun Anbo was afraid that something would happen to her, so she quickly scolded the young man who spoke.
Then he directed everyone: "Why don't you help the young lady sit down and rest!" But she felt a little annoyed in her heart. This daughter-in-law is usually stable and generous, and can withstand big scenes. Why is she so fragile today?
Luo Mingxiang shook his head and said: "No, I want to see him first!"
Seeing that she cared so much about Xu Zhaolin, Mrs. Chun'anbo felt a little better. She sighed and said, "That's all, go and have a look. The imperial doctor will treat his injury soon. Please advise him to treat the injury first."
, maybe...it’s not that serious.”
Luo Mingxiang lowered his eyes, smiled slightly at Chun Anbo and his wife in front of him and said, "Yes, I know, I will leave first."
