"Master, Master, my wife hasn't woken up yet. You will beat her to death!" The maidservant quickly stepped forward and grabbed Murong Leng to persuade her.
"I just want to beat her to death, this bitch!" Murong Leng was so angry that he almost went crazy. He had been looking forward to having a child for fifty years, and he lost it like this. He was unwilling to accept it!
Chu Yuan woke up faintly. When she heard that the child was gone, she was trembling with fear. It was because she had this child that she felt confident that she dared to smuggle out the grain and sell it. She was sure that even Murong Leng knew that she was selling the grain.
At most, he would only curse a few words. He would never dare to hit her again, but he did not expect that the relationship between this child and her was so shallow. She just ran away because of nervousness. How could she be lost like this?
"Master, master, it's really none of my business. It's Twelve. It must be her. She brought a bowl of fish soup in the morning and said it was for my health. There must be something wrong with that bowl of fish soup. There must be something wrong with that bowl of fish soup.
Yes!" In a panic, Chu Yuan saw the gloating faces of the twelve-room concubines at the bedside, pointed at one of them who looked the most flirtatious and said, "Master, it must be about that bowl of fish soup, otherwise it's okay.
How could your child be gone?"
"You bitch, you dare to say these things, you..." Murong Leng stepped forward and punched and kicked him again. That Xiao Twelve was his new concubine. His joy had not passed yet. This
It is not good for a woman to accuse someone, but she is falsely accusing her!
Chu Yuan gritted her teeth and endured it, her eyes filled with resentment. She would not let Murong Leng and these bitches go!
The news that atrocities were happening at the emperor's feet soon reached the palace. Li Xin felt that his headache was getting worse and worse, and he could no longer eat.
"Your Majesty, you must take care of yourself!" Eunuch Su hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Why don't you let this old slave rub you for the Emperor again?"
Li Li waved his hand, "Your method treats the symptoms but not the root cause. If the current situation cannot be solved, my headache will not be cured!"
When Mr. Su was about to persuade him again, he saw a young eunuch coming in, saying that it was the Fifth Prince who wanted to see him.
"He came just in time, let him in quickly!" Li Li quickly called, and the little eunuch hurriedly went to summon him.
"See you, Father! Long live Father! Long live Father!" Li Huang stepped forward and saluted respectfully.
"That's all, get up quickly. How is the situation now? How is the solution going?" Li Li asked anxiously.
"Shops all over the country can basically maintain the basic life of the people, but food and vegetables are still in short supply, and some officials also take this opportunity to make money!" Li Huang said in a low voice.
"It's unreasonable. Now that the country is in crisis, these people dare to...pass on my imperial edict and let the officials investigate the matter thoroughly. Those found to be corrupt and perverting the law will be severely punished and will not be tolerated!" Li Xie said sternly, "If this continues, this country will be ruined.
How to survive? And Chu Yiqing, has she come back from Chu Han? There is still a mess waiting for her to clean up in Lucheng! When can these sweet potatoes be planted? Even if sweet potatoes are not planted, there are tens of thousands of acres of wheat in Yuncheng
Still waiting for her!"
Li Huang hurriedly said: "Father, don't worry, I have raised some food and vegetables from various places, which should be able to temporarily alleviate the current situation. It's just a matter of clarity. Shouldn't Father think twice? Now is the time to employ people.
Now, if my father forces her like this, it may be counterproductive. If Chu Yiqing turns to help the five major families, then we..."
Li Li's eyes darkened: "She dares, isn't she afraid that I will punish her parents?"
Li Huang couldn't help laughing and said: "Father, when Chu Yiqing was humiliated and pregnant, Chu Zhantian and his wife Zheng couldn't tolerate the child and wanted to put Chu Yiqing to death. Now Chu Yiqing has no feelings for them anymore.
, just outside the city gate, my son saw with his own eyes that Chu Yiqing refused to go home. I am afraid that even if his father kills Chu Zhantian's family, he will not be able to move Chu Yiqing! What's more, his father still needs to rely on him now.
King of Chu?"
Li Li raised his eyes and looked at Li Huang, "What do you mean..."
"Chu Yiqing has arrived in the capital. She said she has a good plan to solve the current crisis. Why don't you listen to her?"
Li Li frowned and thought for a long time, and then whispered: "Okay, I'll see what she has to say! Declare her to enter the palace!"
Li Huang quickly stepped aside.
Chu Yiqing followed the little eunuch into the main hall. This was her second time entering the palace, so she was familiar with it.
"See you, Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty!" Chu Yiqing knelt down and saluted calmly.
Li Li took a look at Chu Yiqing and saw that she was wearing a plain dress with light green patterns, fresh and refined, her expression was calm, neither humble nor silent, and there was no trace of panic. He couldn't help but frown and said coldly: "
Chu Yiqing, are you guilty of leaving your post without permission?"
Seeing that Li Li did not let him stand up, Chu Yiqing continued to kneel there and said softly: "Your Majesty, you have never given Chu Yiqing an official position, so how can you say that he left his post without permission?"
Li Li was stunned for a moment, and his eyes darkened: "You are quite sharp-tongued!"
Chu Yiqing raised his head and smiled faintly: "No matter how sharp-tongued a civilian girl is, all she has to do is fight with words. Unlike the emperor, just one word can make this little girl doomed!"
"Irreversible? Where does this come from?" Li Li was startled.
"The emperor wants the little girl to farm in Lucheng and Yuncheng. The little girl is just a person. How can she take on such a big responsibility? What's more, the battle between the imperial court and the five major families is no longer a day or two. Now the little girl has become a thorn in the side of the five major families.
I have a thorn in my flesh. I have been attacked by suspected five major families on the road. The little girl has caused disasters because of her service to the emperor and cannot protect herself and her family." Chu Yiqing spoke eloquently, neither humble nor arrogant, every sentence was reasonable, and he said such as
Frowning again and again.
"Isn't it just a common people on the shore of the land? I am the emperor, the real dragon emperor. Since you have the ability to share my worries, you should do your best. Your father used to be the protector of the country, but now he is the king of Chu, and he is my minister. You
She is the daughter of an important minister. Didn't your father tell you these truths?" Li Li suppressed a surge of anger.
"Your Majesty, the little girl is just an ignorant woman. She just wants to live a stable life and does not want glory and wealth. Moreover, from ancient times to the present, men have always been loyal to the king, love the people, and share the country's worries. Your Majesty has placed such a heavy burden on the little girl.
Are you not afraid of outsiders laughing at you and no one in the court?" Chu Yiqing remained calm in the face of Li Li's anger. She is not an ancient person, and you are not her king. She just wants to live her own life, and no one wants to force her.
she!
"Bastard, do you mean to disobey the imperial edict?" Li Li's face was ferocious, and his anger could no longer be suppressed.
"The little girl does not want to disobey the imperial edict, but because the little girl has other better ways to share the emperor's worries!" Chu Yiqing said calmly.
"What method?" Li Li asked immediately.
Li Huang hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Father, I just said that I have raised some grain and vegetables to temporarily stabilize the situation. These things are Chu Yiqing's. Father, Chu Yiqing has promised to donate her grain to her."
and vegetables to stabilize the market price. As long as the situation can be controlled, Chu Yiqing has made a great contribution. Why does my father insist on asking her to farm the land in person? Father, please put the country first!"
Li Li pondered slightly and asked, "How much food do you have?"
Chu Yiqing said loudly: "The little girl has a million catties of grain and a million catties of vegetables. The little girl promises to sell them to the people at the previous price to stabilize the market. The little girl just begs the emperor to agree to a condition!"
When Li Li heard this, he was immediately happy. One million pounds, the situation in front of him can definitely be solved, but when he saw Chu Yiqing bargaining again, he was a little unhappy, and said coldly: "You are so brave!"
"Your Majesty, this little girl is not very courageous. It is because she is not very courageous that she asked the Emperor for a gold medal to protect my family from death!" Chu Yiqing knelt down and said loudly.
Li Li suddenly nodded and smiled: "Since you are willing to do your best for the court, how can I blame you again? Don't worry, there is no need for the immunity gold medal, as long as the food can really be put to great use to solve the current crisis.
, not only will I not blame you for leaving your post without permission before, but I will also reward you for your meritorious service!"
Chu Yiqing immediately smiled and said: "The emperor speaks so eloquently, this little girl believes in the emperor!"
Li Li nodded lightly, turned to Li Huang and said: "I'll let you handle this matter, remember to do it as soon as possible! As long as the domestic situation stabilizes, Luo Guo and Dai Guo will naturally retreat!"
Li Huang quickly accepted the order.
After walking out of the palace, Li Huang breathed a sigh of relief.
"Are you afraid?" Chu Yiqing turned to look at Li Huang, "Afraid that the emperor will not agree to my terms and kill me?"
Li Huang shook his head: "He needs you now, so naturally he won't kill you. It's just that my father is gloomy by nature. Sometimes even I can't guess what my father is thinking. I'm afraid... you could have saved him from death just now."
A gold medal would be great!”
"As long as I am of value, he will not kill me!" Chu Yiqing sneered, "Even if I ask for the death-free gold medal, he can deny it, so I didn't force it!" Chu Yiqing turned to look at him.
Xiang Lihuang, "Not to mention you, I know you will definitely keep us safe!"
Li Huang's heart moved. Unexpectedly, Chu Yiqing would entrust her and Abao's lives to him with confidence. He was so happy that he couldn't help but hold Chu Yiqing's little hand tightly.
"Okay, let's go back quickly. While the current situation is still under control, we can strike first!" Chu Yiqing looked around and saw that there were palace maids and eunuchs passing by. She blushed and whispered quickly.
Li Huang nodded, but refused to let go of Chu Yiqing's hand. He took her hand and got into the carriage, which drove out of the palace.
In the main hall, Eunuch Su said happily: "Your Majesty, this is great, now you can finally sit back and relax!"
Li Li nodded. It seemed that this woman Chu Yiqing was indeed brave and resourceful. She was really a good helper to Li Huang, but it was a pity...
"Eunuch Su, I'm also tired. Let's go back to the palace and rest!" Li Li slowly stood up.
Eunuch Su quickly stepped forward to help.
Mrs. Huangfu walked around the room worriedly, looking outside from time to time.
"Old madam, the young lady and the prince will not be back soon after entering the palace. Why don't you sit down and have a rest first? The pastries in the palace are very delicious. Old madam, would you like to try them?" Yingqian walked in with the pastries and said with a smile.
"Sister Yingqian, A'bao likes to eat!" A'bao climbed down from the bed and went to the table. He twisted a piece of pastry with his hands and put it in his mouth. He stuffed it full, bulging, and chewed hard. It was funny.
The look made Yingqian couldn't help but laugh, and kept telling Abao to be careful, slow down, don't choke!
Mrs. Huangfu sighed and looked back at the prosperity of the room. The cotton blankets on the floor, the jade screens, and the scrolls hanging on the walls, none of them are famous products, and none of them are of great value. If the fifth prince is still the former Mr. Qi,
, it is just a wealthy businessman's family. With Yiqing's current identity, ability, and worth, even though he has a child, he is barely on par with Mr. Qi. But now Mr. Qi has transformed into one of the five most favored by the emperor in the dynasty.
Your Majesty, this...
Mrs. Huangfu sighed, her heart was racing, it was an indescribable feeling.
Seeing that Mrs. Huangfu was so uneasy, Yingqian immediately stepped forward and comforted her: "Old madam, don't think too much about it. Miss knows the way she wants to go!"
Mrs. Huangfu frowned and glanced at Yingqian. She had not forgotten Yingqian, Yingrun, and the four girls... Thinking about it, there seemed to be many people from Mr. Qi in the house. No wonder Mr. Qi was always able to
When Chu Yiqing showed up when he needed him, Qianqing had already sent someone to monitor him in the house!
"Let me ask you Yingqian, did you know Mr. Qi's true identity from the beginning?" Mrs. Huangfu asked with a serious look on her face.
Yingqian didn't know how to answer for a moment, so she thought about it and nodded, "My slave and Yingrun used to be with me, but later I gave my sisters to the young lady!"
When Mrs. Huangfu heard this, she felt even more unhappy. The fifth prince had planned on Chu Yiqing early in the morning and dragged Chu Yiqing into this muddy water. But how did he know that Chu Yiqing was useful?
Help him?
Although Mrs. Huangfu was suspicious in her heart, she was not sure, and her face was filled with uncertainty. Ying Qian was secretly frightened by this sight, and quickly found an excuse to wait at the door. Finally, she waited until Chu Yiqing came back, and hurriedly went to greet her.
.
"What's wrong?" Chu Yiqing saw Yingqian in such a panic when he got out of the car and asked quickly, "But is there something wrong with Mom and Abao?"
Yingqian quickly shook her head and just whispered: "The old lady's face is not good. Ever since she entered the palace, she has been looking around in the palace, muttering to herself, and asking the slaves if they already knew the identity of the master.
, Miss, do you think the old lady is..."
Chu Yiqing patted her hand: "Okay, I understand, I'll go tell my mother!"
Yingqian nodded and followed Chu Yiqing into the room.
"Yiqing, how is the matter?" As soon as Chu Yiqing came back, Mrs. Huangfu hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "It's settled, mother, let's set off back to the capital tomorrow. I'm not used to living in this capital!"
When Mrs. Huangfu heard this, she immediately said happily: "Okay, okay, let's leave tomorrow. To be honest, it may have been a long time since I came back, and I can't get used to living there, especially the halls and pavilions here. I feel dizzy just looking at them, or...
Our house is nice, warm in winter and cool in summer, so we can live comfortably!"
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Mom, do you want to go and see your old home? I asked the prince that the old houses of Pan's Mansion and Huangfu's Mansion were confiscated and sold to others, and there were people living in them. If we just go in
Take a look, it should be possible!"
Old Mrs. Huangfu was a little moved, after all, it was her hometown, but after thinking about it again, she still shook her head: "Forget it, don't go and see it. No one is here anymore, so what else are you looking at? It's sad to see it!"
Chu Yiqing advised: "At least come back to the capital. I don't know when I will come next time. Anyway, I still have time in the afternoon. Mom, I will accompany you to have a look. Once you see it, you won't worry about it anymore!"
When Mrs. Huangfu heard this, she couldn't help but feel a little happy. Does this mean that Chu Yiqing will not stay in the palace? That's right, this high-gate compound looks bright to outsiders, but there is no adultery, and it is too involved.
After knowing so many things, Yiqing knew her... But she knew Yiqing's affection for Mr. Qi, and now they are no longer together...
Mrs. Huangfu was so lost in thought that she didn't even hear Chu Yiqing call her.
"Mom, what are you thinking about? Do you remember the past?" Chu Yiqing smiled and said, "I have asked Yingqian to prepare the carriage. You go and change your clothes. I will accompany you to take a look!"
Old Mrs. Huangfu was stunned, how could she tell that she was worried about Chu Yiqing, so she could only nod, went into the house, found the best clothes and put them on.
Li Huang had been wandering outside the door because it was inconvenient for him to come in because Mrs. Huangfu was in the house. Now that he saw Mrs. Huangfu leaving, he quickly entered the house and played wildly on the bed with A Bao.
"Fifth Prince, please take care of A Bao. I will take my mother to see the old house!" Chu Yiqing deliberately gave Li Huang and A Bao a chance to be alone. Along the way, A Bao knew that he was coming to the capital.
, she kept chanting Daddy, Daddy, Daddy. She was leaving tomorrow anyway, so she might as well fulfill her wish for Abao.
"Okay, don't worry, Lei Yuan, you accompany Miss Chu and the old lady!" Li Huang quickly raised his voice and ordered.
Lei Yuan immediately responded loudly outside.
"Okay!" Chu Yiqing did not refuse. She wanted to leave the capital as soon as possible. If she met someone from the Chu family again, it would be better to have Lei Yuan here. She didn't want to have any conflict with the people from the Chu family. After all, this body
It was true that Chu Yiqing knew that she didn't want to do things too badly and cause unnecessary trouble.
Sitting in the palace's gorgeous carriage, Mrs. Huangfu was both happy and melancholy at the same time. What she was happy about was that after so many years, she could finally come back. Even Mai Xiang's spirit in heaven would be happy. What was sad was that now, thirty years later, the old lady would be happy.
The house should also change its appearance!
"Let's go!" Outside the car, Lei Yuan ordered the carriage driver in a cold voice. Soon, the carriage drove slowly.
The carriage drove to the street outside Huangfu's mansion. Mrs. Huangfu looked at the navy blue wall and the mottled ground and couldn't help but nodded: "Yes, this is here. Although many facades have changed, this wall
It’s broken, but it’s still that street. When I first got married, this was my favorite street to go shopping. I still remember that there used to be a seller here selling roasted sweet potatoes. I loved eating them the most, and I often asked the maids to buy them..."
Chu Yiqing smiled faintly, listening to Mrs. Huangfu slowly reminiscing, and looking at the scenery outside the car.
The carriage finally stopped, and Mrs. Huangfu couldn't wait to get out of the car. She saw a very majestic mansion in front of her. Although the building seemed to be old, the vermilion door and white stone steps were still very majestic.
"This gate and steps have been changed. It was not like this before!" Mrs. Huangfu sighed as she stood in front of the steps.
"Who are you?" Maybe they heard some movement outside the door, and someone immediately came out of the house to ask.
Lei Yuan stepped forward and said a few words, and the man's attitude immediately became respectful. He asked someone to open the door and let Mrs. Huangfu and Chu Yiqing in. As they walked away, he said, "My master has gone out to receive guests.
You can take a look at the courtyard and the garden as you like, but you are not allowed to enter the inner hall!"
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Don't worry, we won't break in, thank you!"
The man waved his hand: "Miss, you're welcome. Mr. Lei has already spoken, but our master has to give you face no matter what!"
Chu Yiqing smiled and took Mrs. Huangfu for a walk around. The yard was not big, but it was very exquisite, and he could see that the owner was a very sensible person. There were many peach trees planted under the eaves of the house. It was Yangchun now.
In March, those planted peach trees spit out fragrant stamens and white powder, which makes it almost impossible to take your eyes away. The peaches and plums are so beautiful.
Mrs. Huangfu looked at the peach trees and sighed: "On this day last year, in this door, the peach blossoms on people's faces reflected each other's red. Where are the people's faces now? The peach blossoms still smile in the spring breeze. Now, thirty years later, there are no peach blossoms on people's faces.
Still the same!"
Seeing that Mrs. Huangfu was so sad, Chu Yiqing couldn't help but persuade her: "Mom, why don't we go to the backyard and have a look? This front yard is the facade, so naturally it can't remain the same as it was thirty years ago. Let's go to the backyard and have a look."
Maybe there are still items from the past!”
Mrs. Huangfu nodded, regained hope, and went to the backyard with Chu Yiqing.
The backyard is indeed not as new as the front yard. Although the cloister has been repainted, the eaves and roofs still maintain their original appearance. Looking at it, Mrs. Huangfu seemed to be remembering what happened before, and she couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Mom, don't be like this!" Chu Yiqing couldn't help but advise, "It's been so long, don't be sad!"
Mrs. Huangfu nodded, held Chu Yiqing's hand tightly and said: "God has finally blessed me and gave me such a good goddaughter, so I won't pray for anything! Yiqing, let's go, I
I don’t want to look at it anymore, just forget about the past and let’s live our new life!”
Chu Yiqing nodded, and just as he was about to go out with Mrs. Huangfu, he heard a cry from the pond not far away. Chu Yiqing and Mrs. Huangfu looked at each other, and when they were about to go over, they saw the original door open.
The man immediately rushed over and cursed loudly: "Aunt Fu, what are you doing? Do you still want to be locked up in the woodshed? If it weren't for the fact that you are a member of the family, the master would have kicked you out long ago.
!Go back quickly! It’s unlucky to cry all day long!”
A woman in her fifties stood up from the edge of the pond. Her clothes were ragged, she quickly bowed to the man and apologized, then turned to leave.
"Xiaoju?" Suddenly, Mrs. Huangfu called out tentatively.
The woman turned her head suddenly, and when she saw Mrs. Huangfu clearly, she couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Are you a young lady? Are you really a young lady?"
"Xiaoju, is it really you?" Mrs. Huangfu cried with joy. She grabbed Xiaoju's hand and grabbed Chu Yiqing and shouted: "Yiqing, she is my dowry maid Xiaoju. I didn't expect to meet her here today. Xiaoju,
Weren't you sold? Why are you still here?"
