When Chen Danzhu returned to the Taoist temple, he did not ignore foreign affairs like last time and kept paying attention to external affairs.
Chen Danzhu was wearing a yellow flower skirt, leaning on the beauty in the small pavilion, holding a small fan in her hand and lightly fanning the peonies blooming outside the pavilion. Bees were flying on the peony stamens, and asked: "So, Your Majesty, this
How many days will it take to set off?"
Ah Dian Dian nodded: "Yes, it has spread. Many people in the city are packing their luggage and saying they want to follow the king."
Chen Danzhu said: "That's very good. The king's people follow the king, which is worthy of praise. What about the ministers?"
A Tian looked at the bamboo forest aside. All she could hear were people chatting. For more accurate information, she could only ask the guards.
"Most of them want to go with them," Zhu Lin said, "but there are also many people who are unwilling to leave their homeland."
This is normal and human nature. Chen Danzhu raised his head and said, "I want to know which officials are not leaving."
This is not easy. Until the last moment, everyone hides their own thoughts. Zhulin hesitates, but it’s not impossible to check, it just takes a lot of thought and energy.
Did Miss Danzhu really treat them as her subordinates and order them around at will? In other words, her girl asked her to buy a lot of things without giving her any money——
"This is also very important to the general." Chen Danzhu sat up straight and said to him seriously, "Think about it, the ministers here are all the king's ministers. The general and his majesty have been far away in the capital. From now on, there will be no king here.
It’s better to know more about these local people.”
What she meant was, what if there were spies left by King Wu among these people? Zhulin understood that this was indeed worthy of careful investigation: "Miss Danzhu, please wait two days, we will go and investigate right away."
Chen Danzhu held the fan and nodded to him: "Thank you for your hard work."
The little girl's eyes were sparkling and full of sincerity. Zhu Lin didn't dare to look at her and left quickly.
After he left, Chen Danzhu leaned against the beauty again and continued to fan Bai Ruirui's peony. Of course she didn't care that King Wu would leave an eyeliner, she just cared about whether there were any enemies of her family among the people left behind.
, she will never leave, father——
Chen Danzhu sat up straight: "What's going on over there, father? You said in the morning that there are not many Imperial Guards left?"
A Tian thought about the scene she had seen in person in the morning: "There are not as many as before, and they are not as neat and messy. There are people running here and there from time to time - if the king is leaving, they must follow him, can't
Look at the master."
King Wu may now want to release his father and kill the emperor - Chen Danzhu stood up and asked: "Is anyone at home coming out? Is anyone going in to look for the master?"
This was not clear. Ah Tian immediately turned around and said, "I'll ask someone to ask."
In addition to taking a look when she went into the city, she also arranged for a guard to guard her home - the lady already used these people, so naturally she didn't use them in vain.
The news came quickly.
"No one came out of the house." A Tian looked at Chen Danzhu nervously, "But not long ago, someone from the king came in and left again after just a cup of tea."
Don't know what to do.
Did he really come here to ask his father to die again? Chen Danzhu clenched his fan tightly, turned a few steps, and called a guard over: "You arrange some people to guard my house. If my father comes out, be sure to stop him and notify him immediately.
I."
The guard responded and left.
Chen Danzhu looked at his back. How many people had the iron-faced general arranged to watch her? There seemed to be only ten of them, which was not enough. Is it too much to ask for more?
The Imperial Guards outside the Chen family's door were scattered and scattered, without the majesty of the Imperial Army. They stood loosely and occasionally came together to talk. However, the Chen family's door was always closed, and it was as quiet as being isolated from the world.
The Chen family is indeed isolated from the world. It was not until the king sent an official today that they realized that in just half a month, there was no King Wu in the world.
"Oh my God." Chen Tiedao stood in front of Chen Liehu and couldn't help but raise his voice, "King Zhou, he actually became the king of Zhou. How did you come up with this?"
When the king sent someone here, Chen Liehu didn't see him. He said he was sick and refused to see anyone. But the man refused to leave and had always had a good relationship with Chen Liehu. The housekeeper had no choice but to ask Chen Danyan.
Chen Danyan didn't want to see him either, saying that as a child she couldn't disobey her father, otherwise she would be unfilial, but she couldn't be disrespectful to the king either, so she invited Mr. Chen Er, the elder of the family, to come and see the guests.
Chen Tiedao entertained the guest and listened to him tell him the purpose of his visit. However, since he was not the host, he could not give him a reply. He could only wait until it was conveyed to Chen Liehu before replying. The guest had no choice but to leave.
Chen Tiedao heard so many unbelievable things that he couldn't help but lose his composure in front of his family.
Chen Liehu has lost weight in the past half month, his face has turned yellow, his hair and beard have all turned white, but his expression is calm. When he heard that King Wu had become King of Zhou, he did not react at all. He only said: "If you are determined, you can think of anything."
.”
They seemed to be talking about insignificant things like what the weather was like.
Chen Tiedao looked at the butler, who didn't respond to him. He could only ask himself: "The king is leaving. The king asked the master to go with him. He said that he knew what happened before was wrong."
Chen Liehu shook his head: "The king is joking, there is nothing wrong with him, he is not wrong, and I really have no resentment, not at all."
Then——Chen Tiedao asked: "Shall we also follow the king?"
No matter what, Chen Liehu was still the Taifu of the Wu Kingdom. Unlike other royal ministers, Chen's Taifu was hereditary, and Chen had always accompanied the King of Wu.
Chen Liehu said nothing, his calm expression showed no thoughts.
"Also." Chen Tiedao thought for a while and told another thing the guest said, "Our Danzhu was outside and was bullied."
Chen Liehu's eyes suddenly widened, but he lowered his eyes again the next moment, but his hands on the chair were clenched tightly.
He said: "There is no such person as Chen Danzhu in our family."
Chen Tiedao didn't try to persuade him, nor did he dare to refute, he just pretended not to hear.
"But brother, don't worry. Danzhu reported it to the official and that person was punished. Alas, I can't believe it when I talk about that person." He said angrily to himself, "It turns out to be from the Yang family.
Second Young Master, you really know people, faces but not hearts!"
Chen Liehu lowered his eyes and said nothing.
"Master Qi said, this is all because of seeing you like this, big brother. Our Chen family has been defeated, so Danzhu was bullied outside." Chen Tiedao said cautiously, "Even the people who have always been good friends with our family have been bullied.
It’s just adding insult to injury, let alone those who hate us.”
Therefore, if they want to protect their daughter from being insulted by others, the Chen family must be reused by the king and regain power.
When it comes to the innocence of his daughter's family, as the elder Chen Tiedao was embarrassed to speak too frankly to Chen Liehu, and he was also worried that Chen Liehu would be angry. Chen Danyan was her sister, so she heard it very straightforwardly.
"I really didn't expect that Second Young Master Yang would dare to do that kind of thing to Second Young Lady!" Xiaodie said angrily, "I really didn't know what kind of person he was."
Chen Danyan was lying on the bed. When she heard this, she laughed at herself: "Who can tell who is who?"
Xiaodie didn't dare to speak for a while. Alas, uncle Li Liang——
Chen Danyan doesn’t want to mention Li Liang.
"She did those things, and what happened to my father now. Those people have nowhere to vent their grievances, and she is alone outside -" She sighed and did not go on. How could the eggs be completed after the nest was overturned, "So Mr. Qi is here to persuade father
Are you going to return to the king and go to the Kingdom of Zhou together?"
Xiaodie nodded: "Your Majesty, I still can't live without you."
And I can’t live without your Majesty.
Now that the young master is gone, Li Liang is dead, and the family is old and young, the Chen family has become a small boat swaying in the wind and rain, and they can only rely on the master to hold them up.
I am the king's servant. What else can I do if I don't follow the king?
Then are they also preparing to move and follow King Wu?
Chen Danyan was silent for a moment: "Let's wait for father to make his own decision." After saying this, she coughed a few times, her face flushed, and her breath was unsteady. Xiaodie was so frightened that she had to give her water and medicine. It took a while before Chen Danyan recovered.
, exhausted all his strength and closed his eyes.
Xiaodie looked at Chen Danyan's pale face. The doctor said that the young lady was suffering from a broken heart, so medicine could not keep her spirits up. If she could change her place and leave the sad place of Wu, would the young lady feel better?
She watched Chen Danyan sleep, put down the curtain and exited quietly.
Chen Danyan in the tent opened her eyes, pulled the quilt to her mouth, and began to cry silently.
She doesn't dare to cry in front of others now. She has no reason to cry and doesn't know who to cry for.
.....
.....
Chen Danzhu stared here and soon realized that the official was indeed here to persuade Chen Liehu, not to persuade Chen Liehu to kill the emperor, but to ask him to go with the king.
"At the last moment, I still cannot do without the master." A Tian curled her lips, "When we arrived in that strange place of Zhou Kingdom, the king needs the master to protect and fight."
Chen Danzhu was lost in thought and said nothing.
A Tian glanced at her, a little worried. When the king didn't need me, I still worked hard for him. When the king needed me, he would go through fire and water with just one word.
Then I must follow the king to leave the Kingdom of Wu and go to the Kingdom of Zhou, right? Will everyone in the family leave? It’s easy for everyone else to say, the second lady——
"Miss." Ah Tian asked, "What should I do?"
Chen Danzhu was interrupted by her inquiry and came back to her senses. She had not yet thought about what to do if her father went to Chu with the king. She was still wary of whether King Wu was persuading her father to kill the emperor - the king was driven out by the emperor like this.
It's humiliating and pitiful. The ministers should share the king's worries.
"If you want to leave -" she said, "then go."
If the king dares to take them away, she will follow him. She will keep an eye on the king to prevent him from hurting his relatives again.
Hearing her cheerful answer, Ah Tian felt relieved. Yes, let's go then. What are you afraid of? The young lady dared to kill even Li Liang, dared the emperor to enter Wu without troops, and dared to use the iron-faced general's bodyguard.
What else is terrible in this world!
"Miss Danzhu." Zhu Lin walked in, holding a scroll in his hand, "I have compiled a partial list of the ministers you want to leave behind."
Chen Danzhu hurriedly took it and took a quick glance at it. Hey, there are quite a lot of people. This is just a part of it?
"These are the king's ministers, and there are more loose ministers. Miss, wait a few more days." Zhulin said, and then asked, "If you need it, miss, why not write down a list yourself and tell who can stay and who can't.
"
Can she stay whoever she asks to stay? It's not her decision. Chen Danzhu shook his head: "How can I do that? Then who am I? I am a king than a king."
She laughed as she spoke, but Zhu Lin didn't say anything. He didn't say these words. When he learned that they were doing this, the general said why bother, just write down whoever she wanted to stay. But since Miss Danzhu didn't want to,
forget about it.
He turned to leave, but saw Chen Danzhu frowning and asking: "Why doesn't this Zhang Jianjun leave?"
The wealth of the person named Zhang is all on his daughter, and his daughter is on King Wu. King Wu is not dead in this life.
Well, Zhu Lin knew the details, but it was not for him to tell. He hesitated and said, "It seems that he is staying with Beauty Zhang. Beauty Zhang is sick and cannot go with the king for the time being."
After he said this, he saw the little girl in front of him stood up and stared at him fiercely.
