lady, please calm down

Chapter 315 Please enter the urn
The seventh day of June.

Night, Qingning Palace Bedroom.

Half an hour ago, Queen Qian and Minister of Civil Affairs Qian Yinian came to visit Liu Yu.

It was said to be a visit, but in reality it was a test.

It seems that the news that Li Bangyan and others were recruited to discuss the throne during the day aroused the vigilance of the rear party.

Qian first found an excuse to reprimand the imperial concubine, and then suggested that the emperor move from Qingning Palace to Baoci Palace.

Liu Yu was noncommittal and has not expressed his position yet.

In Xu Shizhong, after the Qian siblings left, Liu Chi came to the dormitory.

Because of the slightly tough attitude of the Queen just now, Liu Yu was in a bad mood, so Liu Chi took the initiative to step forward and massage his father's calf.

This act of filial piety made Liu Yu, who had not smiled much since his illness, reveal a loving smile, but the smile was somewhat deformed due to the crookedness of his mouth and eyes.

The candlelight in the bedroom was dim, and in a daze, Liu Yu couldn't help but think of the situation when he was a Zhou official.

At that time, he had one wife and four concubines. Although Qian was more domineering, he still maintained the family's apparent harmony and dignity.That year, the second son of the Liu family born to the third aunt died young, and the Qian family was really sad for a while.

Unlike now, when he saw Chi'er, his disgust was not concealed.

Thinking of the past, Liu Yu suddenly recalled the docile fourth aunt who had the lowest sense of presence in the family. She had been dead for more than ten years.

Liu Yu thought about it carefully and then remembered that her name was Xiangjun and that she gave birth to Jiarou for him.

In all these years, Jia Rou seemed to have not spoken to her daughter alone except for a quick glance during the New Year.

Just as he was thinking about calling his daughter over to take a look tomorrow, out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of his son's shoulders shrugging, as if he was sobbing.

Liu Yu sighed silently, raised his hand and knocked on the sand table next to the couch. When Liu Chi raised his head, the father and son stared at each other.
Liu Yu knew why his son was crying, and his eyes were filled with deep helplessness.

This look made Liu Chi feel great grief, and he couldn't help but cry: "Father, after what happened today, my eldest brother and the queen will not tolerate me and my mother and concubine even more in the future. What should I do?"

Liu Yu was silent for a moment, then suddenly picked up a bamboo pen and wrote with difficulty on the sand table next to him: My son, don't be afraid.
These four words immediately caused Liu Chi to lose control of his emotions. He started crying loudly and kept saying, "Daddy, daddy."

At this moment, there are no kings and ministers, only father and son.

But what Liu Yu wrote next made Liu Chi quickly calm down.

"My son, don't be afraid. My father will make you the King of Huai, and you will be protected by the Marquis of Lu An. You will have no worries about food and clothing."

This is probably the escape route Liu Yu prepared for his son.

Before King Lu ascended the throne, he asked his third son to go to another place in advance to attend the ceremony.
But how can "having enough food and clothing" satisfy today's Liu Chi?
What's more, being sheltered by Lu Anhou is a good home. Living under someone else's roof is never easy.

Liu Chi raised his tearful eyes, looked at his father, and murmured: "Father, is it true that I have no chance?"

There was a lot of licking in Liu Yu's eyes, and he finally shook his head helplessly. In fact, he had many things to say to his son, such as the current situation. If you act forcefully, not only will Daqi be in turmoil, but also can you keep it? Life is at stake.

When things can't be done, you have to admit defeat when it's time to do so.

Liu Yu felt that his son could understand his painstaking efforts.
Here, Liu Chi lowered his head and was silent for a long time. Suddenly he stood up and picked up a handkerchief from the bedside to wipe the tears on his face. When he looked at Liu Yu again, his face was filled with an almost indifferent calm.

"Father, do you know where you are wrong?" Liu Chi said suddenly while folding the handkerchief carefully, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

"." Liu Yu didn't understand why his son suddenly talked to him like this. He couldn't help but open his mouth slightly and saliva flowed down his cheeks.

"Hey~"

Liu Chi sighed and sat down slowly on the edge of the bed. He gently wiped the saliva from Liu Yu's face and said, "You are wrong because you should not have promised your son something that you cannot give. Back then, if my father, Emperor Ruo If you want your son to inherit the throne, you shouldn't be forced by the power of the Qian family to give your eldest brother the power to command the army. If your father doesn't want me to inherit the throne, you shouldn't talk nonsense like "Chi'er Xiaofu" all day long , causing the queen and eldest brother to regard me as a thorn in their side
Father, tell me, who is responsible for the current situation?Hey, I have been to Huaibei. Although the people dare not say it, they all feel that my father is not a good emperor.But they don’t know that their father is not even a good father.”

Killing hearts!

The words that the son did not say anything to his father made Liu Yu tremble all over. He stretched out his right hand tremblingly, as if he wanted to slap Liu Ji, but he could not lift it to the height of Liu Ji's face.

After working hard for a long time, Liu Chi casually waved his hand and knocked off Liu Yu's arm.

Then, Liu Chi lowered his head and stared at Liu Yu, his eyes gradually becoming crazy, "Father! Since you have fallen into the name of a foolish king, please leave this country to me! I will work hard and do not let my Liu family suffer." Because of my father’s disgrace!”

As he spoke, the handkerchief Liu Chi held in his hand slowly covered Liu Yu's mouth and nose.
"!"

Rebel!

Frightened and frightened, Liu Yu unleashed his last bit of potential and struggled wildly.

Although his body was paralyzed and he couldn't exert much strength, he finally managed to make some movement.

Perhaps someone outside heard it, and the palace door opened a crack, a person stepped in, and then closed quickly.

Liu Yu saw from the corner of his eye that the person coming was none other than Concubine Xiang, with whom he was deeply in love.
He couldn't help but struggle even more fiercely, as if he wanted to show the imperial concubine with her own eyes that her son had done such a heinous act.

Concubine Xiang looked around nervously, then quickly walked to the couch in three steps instead of two, and firmly held down Liu Yu's bouncing legs.

"Chi'er! Hurry up! We are the ones outside now!"

With this sentence, Liu Yu, who was struggling desperately, suddenly became quiet.
Concubine Xiang seemed to feel something. When she looked up, she saw Liu Yu, whose mouth and nose were tightly covered by his son, lying there quietly, no longer struggling or resisting.

He just opened his eyes wide and looked at the woman he had loved for more than 20 years.

Two lines of turbid tears slowly overflowed from the corners of his eyes, slid into his pale temples, and finally disappeared.
It was the seventh day of the sixth lunar month in the 11th year of Fuchang, at the moment of Hai hour.

The emperor's trip.

270 miles southeast of Tokyo, Guide Prefecture, Ningling County.

The Huaibei Army, which has been marching very slowly recently, will be stationed in the north of the city tonight.

Chen Chu took the commander of the Armed Guards Xiang Jing, the commander of the Black Flag Army Zhou Liang and other high-level officials of the Huaibei Army to inspect the camp.

At two o'clock in the morning, a meteor disappeared in the northeastern night sky.

Chen Chu felt a heart palpitation for no reason. He didn't believe in ghosts and gods, but in order to seek psychological comfort, he specially invited Taoist Priest Wugen, who was accompanying the army, to perform a divination.

Ever since his junior brother got into trouble, Wugen has stopped doing divination for others.

But when Marquis Luan invited him, Wugen could only make an exception.

"The Marquis predicts bad luck or the future."

Before starting the hexagram, Wugen asked. Chen Chu pondered for a moment, looked at the southwest night sky, and said, "Help me figure out what's going on at home."

After some fiddling with Wugen, he came up with a 'Kun Gua Shengti', saying: The Lord has the joy of the land, or he may benefit from the Yin people.
Chen Chu didn't quite understand what he heard. In short, according to Wugen's opinion, there was no trouble at home, and there might be some happy events.

Chen Chu felt a little relieved, but now he was limited by the speed of information transmission. He knew that something big was going to happen in Tokyo and Caizhou, but he couldn't get the news at the first time, which made people worried.
Four hundred miles southwest.

Caizhou, Marquis Mansion in Sajin Lane.The maid and mother-in-law were busy walking back and forth in the back house, their faces filled with uncontrollable joy.

In the afternoon, I have been feeling very tired lately. I asked the Queen’s doctor to take my pulse, but she found a happy pulse.
As no one knows, the issue of heirs has always been a worry for people. Now, it's like clearing the clouds and seeing the blue sky.

It's a pity that the Marquis is not here, so he can't share the good news immediately.

In the Hanchundang bedroom, Mao'er rewarded a group of maids who were cheering and congratulating each other, and asked everyone to go outside first.

She, Cai Hua and Yu Nong were the only ones left in the house.

"What a coincidence, we arrived today"

Although Mao'er was happy, she was obviously worried.

"Sooner or later, it's always the right time. Why are you talking about this?"

Cai Hua said bitterly. Mao'er knew that Cai Hua, who had a cool face, was envious to death, so he didn't care about her. He only worriedly said: "According to Li Mulezi's report, those people outside the city are going to take action tonight." Come on, this kid won’t come sooner or later, but he chose this time.”

"Giggle, the baby in my sister's belly must be someone who likes to join in the fun."

Yu Nong told a joke that was not too funny. Caihua looked at her like she was a fool. Only Mao'er smiled in cooperation to prevent Yu Nong from being too embarrassed.

After Cai Hua withdrew her gaze, she said: "Dr. Wang said that the pregnancy is not stable, so don't be tired from running around. Just have a good rest at home. I will take care of the things outside."

Mao'er knew that something big was going on tonight, and she was supposed to represent the Hou Mansion together with Chen Tongzhi and others, but suddenly she learned that the child who was looking forward to the stars and the moon had already arrived in her womb.
After all, she is not the temperament of a strong woman like Cai Hua. She has the traditional idea of ​​continuing the incense of the Chen family, which makes her extra careful. Finally, after much hesitation, she decided to stay at home to have the baby, "Then it will be hard on Sister Cai. The bad guys are vicious. Swordsmen have no eyes, Sister Cai should be careful."

"I'm not stupid, I won't move forward."

After saying that, Cai Hua got up and told Yu Nong before leaving, "Later, you can come to Hanchundang with the little Yuanbao and stay with the cat. If the Marquis is not here, you have to protect the cat."

When Yu Nong heard this, a sense of mission arose spontaneously. He stood up and said solemnly: "Sister Cai, don't worry, with Yu Nong here, my sister will not lose a single hair! If a thief comes into the house, I will Then fight them tooth and nail!"

Yu Nong's look of death made Mao'er and Cai Hua laugh at the same time. The latter smiled and stretched out his hand to pinch Yu Nong's face and said: "It's not as scary as you said. It's not our turn in such a big prince's mansion. You fight for it."

Hour two quarters.

Cai Hua took Baoxi out and arrived at Xia Cuiyuan, the official residence, a quarter of an hour later.

In the front hall of Xia Cuiyuan, the Chen family brothers, Ximen Gong, Xu Bang, Caizhou Left-behind Division Commander Jiang Huaixiong, and Jing'an Army Commander Liu Si were all there.

When several people saw Cai Hua entering, they couldn't help but be startled.

At this time, Cai Hua was carrying a Micao knife, and Baoxi was beside him. The Micao knife was Chen Chu's old sword, and Baoxi was a soldier of Chen Chu's.

Every person and thing shows who Cai Hua represents here.

What everyone is surprised about is that the person who is supposed to show up tonight is replaced by Mrs. Cai Sanniang.
It's not that she doesn't have enough status. After all, Cai Hua is both Cai Yuan's daughter and a member of Chen Chu's family. It's even more important to represent both families' identities at the same time.

However, she is the aunt of the Hou Mansion after all. When something big happens, the wife is not here, but the aunt is here, which always feels a little wrong.

It makes people think too much
With one glance, Cai Mei guessed what everyone was thinking, and deliberately waited for a few breaths before explaining: "I am pregnant. I am not worried about giving birth tonight, so I stayed in the house to rest."

This news immediately caused a small commotion in the front hall.

Especially Liu Siliang, who was born as a tenant farmer in Luliuwei, it is no exaggeration to describe him as elated.

However, this good news is happening at this moment, which is a bit inconsistent.

Chen Jing'an, on the other hand, thought more and couldn't help but said: "Sister, is the security of the Hou Mansion properly arranged?"

"No problem, the Marquis left his personal camp before going on the expedition. Now Shen Yuhou has brought [-] soldiers to the personal camp. They have been hidden in the Marquis Mansion, just waiting to catch the turtle in the urn."

Cai Hua's answer aroused Chen Jingyan's worry, "Three hundred soldiers are safe in the Hou Mansion. But their target tonight is the Hou Mansion and the government office. If a fight breaks out in the Hou Mansion, it will be shocking. It’s also inappropriate. After all, the person is pregnant, so it’s better to let the person go and hide somewhere else in advance.”

Hearing this, Cai Hua glanced at the people in the room, and suddenly squinted her eyes and smiled, saying: "My Marquis was born in the army, and the women of my Marquis's house are not delicate ladies who stay at home. Now that he is fighting abroad, it is up to us to protect the family and the house. The Chen family in this woman is in the Hou Mansion and is not going anywhere!"

"Okay! Sanniang is so happy! She looks like the fifth brother! Hahaha."

Ximen patted his hands respectfully and laughed!
The rest of the people couldn't help but show a look of admiration. Ask yourself, if the female family members of their families know that there will be evil people attacking at night when the men are not at home, it is rare that they can not be paralyzed by fright. How can they dare to stay in the house? .

The women in this prince's mansion are indeed different from the female relatives of other families.
Xu Bang, who was on the side, thought for a while and then said: "You are pregnant, so you really shouldn't be disturbed anymore. Mr. Chen, why don't we take the first step and capture Wu Weiguang and others directly, wouldn't it save trouble? Anyway, the post house There are only more than 100 sergeants in China”

Chen Jing'an shook his head and said: "If they take action first, we will take advantage of the great cause of 'counterinsurgency'! We can bargain with the court later. Furthermore, it would not be a good idea to scare the Huaiyuan gentry outside the city. There is no thousand-day defense." The principle of thieves is to take advantage of this to catch them all, and then Huaibei will be completely pacified."

Chen Jingan's idea was both complicated and simple. Wu Weiguang and others wanted to take advantage of the fact that Marquis Lu An was not in Caizhou, and control the Marquis's family members to offer them to King Lu, in order to completely control Chen Chu and the wealthy Caizhou.

But this is just a plan, and it will not be considered an 'attempted crime' until they take action.

If things go well, King Lu will gain the Huaibei army and the land of Caizhou, and he will make a lot of money from both people and land.

If the matter fails, even King Lu would not dare to take the charge of attacking the Daqi Marquis Mansion.

By then, the Huaibei Clan would have a bargaining chip with the imperial court.

If the personal feud between Chen Chu and the Wu family hadn't reached the point of sworn hatred, Wu Weiguang would not have been willing to take such a dangerous move.

The reason why everyone in Caizhou is willing to spend so much effort to invite you to the urn is just to maintain the superficial harmony with the Qi court.

If they had known that a major event that could change the world situation had happened in Tokyo's Qingning Palace tonight, they would not have been in such trouble.
In short, the world's situation is overwhelming; the world's affairs are chaotic.

Every decision made by everyone involved in the overall situation will lead the situation in an unpredictable direction.

At the end of Haishi, all matters were finally agreed upon, and everyone performed their duties and dispersed everywhere.

Before saying goodbye, everyone said hello to Cai Hua
This "happiness" was addressed to Chen Chu and Mao'er. Since they were not around, Cai Hua had to convey it on their behalf.

Cai Hua was annoyed that in the past, there were cats at home to keep her company, but now there were cats too, and she was the only one left.

I know how to kill people, can my next kid still be in trouble?

It's night, late midnight.

In the city, in the dark and silent post house, more than a hundred sergeants stood quietly in the house, wearing armor and carrying weapons, ready to go.

Outside the city, young men and women filed off the several merchant ships with [-] materials that had just docked today.

Sprinkle Gold Alley, Hou Mansion.

Entering the back house on the sixth day, Cai Hua, dressed in red, was sitting alone on a big chair in the yard. She held a grass knife across her thigh, but she didn't know any kung fu. At this time, Cai Hua's body was also covered with a layer of evil spirit that seemed to be real.
Behind her, Tie Dan, who was dressed in silver armor, was holding a bright silver gun, but his body was as firm as a loose ball.

At two o'clock in the morning, there was suddenly a distant noise from the eastern city gate, followed by shouts.

Cai Hua stood up, rubbed her eyes, stretched, and muttered, "He's finally here."
