A big coat to protect from the wind was draped over his body, and a strong fire was lit next to him.
It is rare to have such a comfortable feeling, warm and cozy. There is a ripple in the atmosphere, like the water ripples in Weishan Lake, the ripples are so shallow that they are difficult to detect.
The two of them were lying on their backs, neither of them sleepy. One has sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, wandering far away; the other has bright eyes like water, with dark waves.
"Bao girl, you should be worried to death these past two days."
"Um."
"Little girl Daiyu has to cry so many times, and I don't know what kind of chaos the two houses have become."
"With the old lady in charge, the second wife in charge, and Sister Feng and the others, there is no limit to the chaos in the house." Brother Rong replied softly. In fact, he is not worried at all about the affairs of the two governments. Especially with Wang Xifeng and Qin Keqing here, I believe they can handle it no matter how big it is.
Besides, they are not the only ones capable of managing things in the family. Although Youshi is not very public, he is actually a decisive person. In real comparison, Sister Feng may not be better than You as a housekeeper.
There are also two people, Li Wan and Tan Chun, who have their own ideas. Even if something bigger happens at home, it will be rare for them to be in chaos.
"I'm afraid they are all worried, lose their thoughts, and get confused." Aunt Xue said calmly. She once had such an experience. If it hadn't been for the help of the second house of the Xue family, the eldest house of the Xue family would have been in chaos in her hands.
"Don't worry about this. Madam, please rest early. The sedan will come into the mountains early tomorrow morning and we will go home."
"Rong'er..."
"Huh?" Brother Rong turned sideways and looked at Aunt Xue.
A trace of hesitation flashed across her face, and she wanted to say something, but she sighed secretly and shook her head. The aunt said: "Nothing, I am indeed sleepy."
After saying that, Aunt Xue gently closed her upper and lower eyelids as if sleeping.
Brother Rong looked at her sideways for a while, and then saw his concubine's hands exposed outside the felt tent. Niannian sat up, took off his cloak and felt cover and unfolded it to cover the two of them.
The inside of the shed is like a big bed, and the felt canopy is like a quilt.
Brother Rong carefully put Aunt Xue's hand into the felt canopy, then lay down next to each other, and then spread the bird's gold felt canopy made of wild duck head feathers to cover him.
I can't help but secretly think that Duan Yu also showed his loyalty and gave away such a cherished object directly.
In this era, there was no concept of down jackets. To protect yourself from the cold in winter, you only had fur coats, jackets, coats, ponchos and other rare items.
Add a jacket, a big coat, and a poncho, and rely on the fire.
Warm indeed.
Brother Rong was sweating on his forehead unconsciously. The people next to him opened their coats more than once and turned sideways with only their coats tucked under their shoulders.
sigh.
Aunt Xue was injured, Brother Rong could only carefully help Aunt Xue take off the coat outside. Just think of the big coat as a warm mattress underneath.
The wind outside continued to blow, and the fire inside gradually became smaller.
The people around him gradually fell asleep. Brother Rong, who was not yet deeply asleep, felt his arms being hugged by someone, but he did not move in a daze and just fell into his dream.
I don’t know how long it will take.
Brother Rong heard the noisy sounds outside and blinked his eyes awake from his sleep. Just now I felt the pain in my shoulder, and when I took a closer look, I saw that my concubine was using him as a soft pillow without any courtesy.
It's just that he himself didn't feel any better. He hugged her unceremoniously and placed one hand on a delicate skin.
"Madam, are you awake?"
Big eyes stare at small eyes.
"Bao Yatou and the others are here." Aunt Xue slapped his unruly hand and said, "Why don't you put it on for me and let Bao Yatou see it?"
It was slightly bright in the early morning, the lights were bright outside, and everything was busy inside.
"Brother Rong..."
When Uncle Rong got out of the shed, the first thing he saw was not Baochai, but Jia Qiang.
"Brother Rong, you're fine, are you injured anywhere?" Mr. Qiang's eyes were red and his face was tired.
There seemed to be endless worries and grievances that I wanted to express to Uncle Rong.
"I'm fine. You haven't rested for a long time."
"Brother Rong is fine. After we heard the news, we quickly came down from the mountain and rushed here overnight." Mr. Qiang had a happy smile on his tired face. Now that he saw Brother Rong, he could finally feel relieved. I can have a good and peaceful sleep when I go back.
It's hard to say that I can even have a sweet dream.
Uncle Rong called the male and female servants who came with him to light a bonfire and gather around to keep warm. But his eyes looked at the people not far away. Standing there were Baochai and Xiangling.
"Why are you here?" Brother Rong waved gently, and a shadow flew through the thatch and threw itself into his arms.
Silent.
"What's wrong?"
"without……"
Jia Qiang, who was sitting by the fire to keep warm, looked at the two figures and lowered her head silently. Although the maid and servant next to her also turned her head, her face was not as exciting as Second Master Qiang's.
After sighing a few times, he took out some gold leaves from his body and looked for the guards who were left behind.
After saying many kind words of thanks and giving the golden leaves to everyone, Fang led several servants from the Ningguo Mansion around him and walked silently out of the valley.
No one except Brother Rong paid attention to Jia Qiang's departure.
The guard who stayed behind was still immersed in joy after taking the gold leaves. The girls and women who came with Baochai were busy with their own affairs, and some went to the shed to take care of Aunt Xue.
No one cares about Jia Qiang. Even if there is, it is just a faint sigh of Qiang Erye's brotherly love.
"Let's go see my wife." Brother Rong said softly.
Baochai hummed softly, quietly moved her hand to the corner of her eyes, took out of Uncle Rong's arms and led Ying'er beside her to the shed quickly.
A cold wind blew across my face.
The valley is cold.
There was a new person in Uncle Rong's arms, and soft laughter rang out.
"Xiao Ling'er came with her."
"Grandma asked Ling'er to accompany her sister." Xiang Ling said little and didn't have much expression on her face. She just lay quietly in the uncle's arms. Even though he was pulled by the uncle to sit down by the campfire, he couldn't hold back a word for a long time.
I just felt a strange hand probing around in my clothes and listened to the uncle's jokes. "Hao Ling'er has lost a lot of weight in the past two days. I need to make up for myself when I go back."
"I listen to uncle."
Xiao Xiangling blushed and fell into the uncle's arms.
In the morning, a large group of people entered the valley, and a rough road connected the inside and outside of the valley.
Countless people and horses came out of the mountain escorting several soft sedans.
"Sir Rong, the magistrates of Wanping and Changping would like to see you." Lu Zetang, who was guarding Brother Rong's sedan chair, said.
"There's no need to meet, this matter has nothing to do with them. Let them go, I'll go back to Ningguo Mansion first, and then go to Prince Zhongshun Mansion." Uncle Rong said calmly. I haven't had a good rest for two nights, and I couldn't sleep well in the sedan. I'm very sleepy now.
At this time, I really wasn't in the mood to listen to what the two magistrates had to say.
"The two county gentlemen can go without, but I'm afraid I can't push away the general from the patrol camp." Lu Zetang said with a smile, "The person leading the army this time is your relative."
The only general in the Nine Gate Patrol Camp is Chen Xuyuan of the Chen family.
Brother Rong yawned, steeled himself, raised the curtain and said, "Brothers, please escort the Jia family and his party out of the mountain. I will ask a few words to the general of the patrol camp."
Naturally, what he wanted to ask the most was the person who ambushed him, even if there was even the slightest clue.
The soft sedan stopped in the mountains, and a clearing was cleared on the left and right, with only Jia Rong and Chen Xuyuan in the middle.
"I've been bothering my uncle for the past two days." Brother Rong laughed and said, "When I go to Prince Zhongshun's Mansion, I will pay a visit to my uncle tomorrow."
"You can still laugh?" Chen Xuyuan looked at him in surprise and said angrily: "Our family has spent a lot of effort looking for you this time. It's a pity that the men of the Wang family, Feng family, and Niu family have all gone to Tiewan Mountain. Prince Jingjun and Marquis Shijia are not in the capital, so we can't get some ventilation as quickly as possible. Otherwise, there will have to be a big battle."
"Uncle Shi is serious, let's avoid any big battles." Brother Rong shook his head and said with a smile: "Since I'm not dead, I will definitely get back my revenge this time. We can't mess up the situation first. , as it turned out, so will it be in the future. Other companies should not try to connect with me, just treat me as a thief."
Chen Xuyuan said: "I haven't found anything in the mountains. This is not an easy matter."
Can it be simpler? The standard muskets came out, and they were aimed at themselves and fired. If it hadn't been for the warnings from the monks in the Reclining Buddha Temple earlier, and the desperate protection of the servants, Aunt Xue would have blocked a shot for herself.
Otherwise, it’s going to be a bloody hell.
Brother Rong looked sideways and smiled: "Is it really not even close at all?"
Chen Xuyuan shook his head and whispered: "The officials from Wanping and Changping counties asked something, saying that someone saw those people coming out of the mountain and going to Zhengjiazhuang."
"Uncle Shi, wouldn't you doubt Prince Richeng? He is the son of a deposed prince, why would he harm me, and how dare he harm me." Jia Rong didn't believe it at all that the man behind the scenes was Prince Richeng.
Unless that guy really has water in his head and is looking for death.
No one needs to say anything, the current emperor and King Zhongshun cannot get around him.
"Of course I don't doubt him, but I have to think about who needs to frame him."
"In the palace."
Brother Rong replied with a relaxed expression.
Easier than ever.
Ever since he understood the whole story, he no longer felt any burden in his heart. He didn't care if he was the eldest prince or the prince, neither of them were good people anyway.
Even the emperor...
Jia Rong first went back to Ningguo Mansion, changed her clothes, and reported to the old lady that she was safe. I also met Jia She, Jia Lian, the eldest wife, the second wife, and all the ladies from the east and west mansions.
After exchanging some words with Qin Keqing and Wang Xifeng, Lu Zetang and others escorted him to Prince Zhongshun's Mansion.
"Thank you, Brother Yu, for the clothes." Brother Rong returned the golden cape to Duan Yu.
"Master Thirteen is waiting for Brother Rong in the palace. Come in quickly and let the others rest." Duan Yu looked at him deeply, took off his clothes and gave instructions. Seeing Brother Rong entering the palace, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Things have finally come to this point. Alas..."
Inside the palace.
King Zhongshun looked very ugly. He stared at the jade tablet on the table and couldn't help but frown. He endured the pain and suppressed the anger in his heart. "Just keep keeping this thing."
"Master Thirteen should go around this kid. I know Master Thirteen has good intentions, but this thing is so hot that I don't dare to carry it with me anymore."
Brother Rong's face showed no panic or anger after the attack, and he could even show a relaxed smile. Even when facing Prince Zhongshun, he always made fun of him with a playful smile.
"Are you ready to give up your choice?"
"Thirteenth Master said it's bad. I don't have any problems with you. I don't have any great talents, but I bumped into a few things blindly in the past. Now it's time to go home and enjoy my wife and children."
"Let's talk about it after we come back from Mobei."
"Mobei..." How could Brother Rong still be in the mood to go to Mobei? He was timid and afraid of death after all, just in case someone planned something in Mobei. That is what makes heaven and earth not respond, and makes earth and earth ineffective.
Even if nothing happens in Mobei, you still have to face things in Shenjing when you come back from Mobei.
Although I had already planned several countermeasures in my mind, I also built a small base in Heishan Village. But they were all prepared for when he had to do it in the future, and he still wanted to put things in order first.
"The boy is in shock this time. I'm afraid he won't be able to get on the horse within a few months, let alone go to Mobei. The Thirteenth Master should be considerate of the boy."
"Are you scared? Or did you hear something from Jia Jing?" Master Thirteen asked with a solemn face.
"I haven't seen my grandpa in a while." Brother Rong shook his head in confusion.
"You're the smart one."
"The boy is stupid."
"..." Brother Rong's words made Thirteenth Master gnash his teeth in anger. If King Zhongshun hadn't been ill now, he might have kicked him on the spot. "You are stupid, stupid and cannot be taught. Is this how you protect Mingzhe's life? You can only climb up, climb to a high place and build a golden body. No one will dare to harm you easily."
Forehead?
What is King Zhongshun talking about?
Brother Rong looked at him in shock and couldn't close his mouth for a long time.
Even after returning to Ning Guo's mansion, he still couldn't react. King Zhongshun actually wanted to climb up and build a golden body. And Princess Zhongshun also meant the same thing.
Puzzling.
it's dark.
Brother Rong was lying on the bed, recalling what King Zhongshun said today over and over again in his mind. The person lying on the body was not honest for a moment, and his hands were digging around.
"Your Majesty still wants me to go to Mobei?"
"Yes. I didn't turn it down. King Zhongshun asked me to have a good rest for a few days."
I couldn't put it down. I even gave the excuse of asking for leave to recuperate, but I still didn't put it down. In fact, it's not a big deal to go to Mobei, but now I feel cold. Although I had expected it, I still felt uncomfortable when it actually came to this point.
"The uncle will take a rest. It's just in time to plant it for all the women in the house. When the uncle comes back from Mobei, there will be a few more happy events in the family."
"What are you looking for?"
Uncle Rong lightly hit Keqing, and he heard a squeak.
"Didn't you think that...after two days, I'll go next door to invite Feng Lazi. If that's not enough, I can go to the garden and invite Aunt Zhu to stay for two nights."
What a fairy, really messing with people's thoughts.
However, his meeting with King Zhongshun today was not without gain. At least he knew the attitude of King Zhongshun and the Emperor, and the two most powerful people in the empire would not harm him.
At least, he knew not yet.
In fact, there is not much to worry about. There are benefits to going to Mobei. Uncle Rong's eyebrows were attentive, and a smile gradually appeared at the corner of his mouth. A figure appeared in his mind, secretly saying: 'Let you be proud for a while first. '
I just felt a strange movement on my body. Uncle Rong put his arms around the person in his arms and asked with a smile: "Did my wife say what she meant from the bottom of her heart?"
"It's good to invite me, so that others don't pry around. Not only does it annoy my wife, but it also makes Feng Lazi look down on me. It's all a good thing done by the uncle..."
