Lian Suisui cried to send Qin and Lian Xiao away. It was originally just a show, and she was crying. After they tried to persuade her, Lian Suisui instantly felt as uncomfortable as if her husband had died.
It turned out that in everyone's eyes, her marriage to Chu Zhiyi was like marrying a loser. Although she seemed to have a noble status and endless wealth, Chu Zhiyi was in poor health and would definitely go ahead of her in the future.
And with his body, she might not be able to have children in her life.
If you don’t have children to support you until you die, your future will be miserable...
Lian Suisui shivered in tears.
It had been raining for the past two days and it had been quite cold, and she had a runny nose.
Chu Zhiyi silently handed her a handkerchief.
Lian Suisui wiped her nose, with tears still in her eyes, and looked sideways at Chu Zhiyi, who was standing beside her at some point.
"Why are you crying like this?"
She realized that this guy was so good. Maybe he was still there after she was beaten to death. What on earth could she feel so uncomfortable about?
Besides, she doesn't plan to have children.
She wants to devote herself wholeheartedly to her career and become a famous doctor like Hua Tuo and Bian Que who will last forever.
I almost got carried away.
"You have to first deceive yourself before you can deceive others."
Lian Suisui muttered: "I don't know who you offended, why do you have trouble coming to your door every three days?"
Before marrying him, she had never heard anyone say anything bad about Chu Zhiyi. After getting married, there were many pitfalls everywhere. She was embarrassed when entering the palace, and was hit by a car when she went out...
Chu Zhiyi chuckled.
"I offended a lot of people."
Outside the borders of Bei Liao, the generals in the army who had been robbed of their limelight by him, the officials in the court who were demoted and assigned to positions due to his implication, Emperor Chen who was sitting on the throne and his supporters...
These are things he offended openly, but secretly...
Even more people died at his hands.
"You will get to know me gradually over time."
Thinking of the rumor he had just made, Lian Suisui patted him on the shoulder guiltily.
"It's okay. No matter how many people you offend or how many enemies you have, we are grasshoppers on the same rope. I will risk my life to accompany you..."
She was just spreading rumors with a guilty conscience, and Chu Zhiyi took the promise she made casually seriously.
"good."
The banquet held by the eldest aunt was agreed to be held three days later. The eldest lady of the Qin family came to visit and said a lot of thoughtful words to Lian Suisui. She agreed with the Qin family and told her to do whatever it takes and wait until Chu Zhiyi gets better. Yes, I want a child first.
Keep your own bloodline and have hope for the future.
Several people with whom she had good relations came to visit her one after another, and they were both physically and mentally exhausted after dealing with them.
"If anyone comes to visit me in the future, they will say that I am too tired to take care of the Ninth Prince and am sick from exhaustion."
"Don't bother me, I'll take a nap."
Lian Suisui lay down and pulled the quilt over his head.
"Uncle Ninth, has Uncle Ninth gone to bed?"
Chu Jing'an's voice came from outside the door. Lian Suisui got up. Chu Zhiyi didn't know what he was doing at the moment. He was not in the room.
You have to find someone first...
More tired.
Across the door, Lian Suisui had already seen Chu Jing'an pushing the door open.
"The Eleventh Prince, my princess has just laid down. If you want to find the prince, my servant should go in first and let me know."
At the critical moment, Xiao Tao interrupted Chu Jing'an's movements.
Lian Suisui spat it out in one breath, feeling as nervous as watching a spy movie.
Xiao Tao opened the door and came in. Lian Suisui whispered: "Take the eleventh prince to the side hall and ask Pei Shu to find the prince..."
Seeing Xiao Tao come out, Chu Jing'an said sheepishly: "Sorry, I forgot that it's inconvenient for Uncle Jiu to get married."
"His Royal Highness Eleven will go to the side hall to drink tea first. My princess will come to see you after she has finished packing."
Pei Shu hurriedly went to find Chu Zhiyi.
In the study, Chu Zhiyi looked at Qu Ping who suddenly came to Beijing, raised his eyebrows and said, "You'd better have something important to report."
Qu Ping clasped his fists.
"Master, my subordinates have found traces of Jinxiu."
Chu Zhiyi was stunned for a long time, then raised his lips and said, "Isn't Jinxiu dead a long time ago? Are you entertaining me?"
Qu Ping raised his head and said seriously: "My subordinates also thought that Jinxiu had died a long time ago. Until a few days ago, a subordinate said that he had seen her in the capital. He asked people to check. Her whereabouts have not been found for the time being, but she can be determined. Still alive."
There was no expression on Chu Zhiyi's face.
Qu Ping half-knelt on the ground to plead guilty.
"My subordinates have neglected their duties. Please punish me, Your Majesty!"
Chu Zhiyi closed his eyes and coughed violently. After a long while, he whispered: "Go out, find out where she is, and arrest her for interrogation by the king himself."
Qu Ping responded yes and exited the study.
Shuying came in and reported: "Master, the eleventh prince is here. The princess has sent someone to look for you."
Chu Zhiyi hummed.
Lian Suisui was waiting anxiously in the room. The window creaked, and Chu Zhiyi climbed through the window and came in. He covered himself with the quilt and lay down.
He became more and more proficient in this set of movements.
Lian Suisui tidied up her appearance, opened the door and went out.
"I'm really sorry. I was so tired last night that I accidentally fell asleep..."
"Auntie Huang is in trouble because I didn't follow the rules and forgot to send someone to tell Auntie Huang in advance..."
The two of them opened the door while talking and came in. They saw Chu Zhiyi and Chu Jing'an sitting around the bed with a not so good face.
"Uncle Jiu, how are you?"
Chu Zhiyi opened his eyes and struggled to sit up.
"It's okay, much better..."
Lian Suisui moved a stool over.
Chu Jing'an helped Chu Zhiyi sit up.
"My father couldn't see me being idle, so he asked me to go out of the city to inspect the granary. I didn't hear the news until I returned to Beijing last night."
"Who is so bold as to commit murder on the street?"
Chu Jing'an said angrily, "I helped the emperor to vent his anger!"
Chu Zhiyi grabbed his wrist and comforted him: "You should calm down first, don't want to be impeached by the censor."
Chu Jing'an looked at Lian Suisui again.
"Is Auntie Huang okay?"
Lian Suisui shook his head.
"I'm fine."
If it weren't for Chu Zhiyi, not only would she have a broken arm, but she would also have two broken ribs. The change happened so quickly that she had no time to react.
"Your Majesty, Princess, Prince Cheng is here, in the front hall!"
"Third brother is here too? I'll go meet him!"
Chu Jing'an didn't come to visit, and neither King Cheng nor King Yun came to visit him. He came to the palace on the first step, and then King Cheng came on the other.
If it was a coincidence, Lian Suisui would definitely not believe it.
"I heard that there have been many cases in the Criminal Department recently, and I see that the third brother has lost weight."
King Cheng has been upset recently because his family was ransacked and his family was being questioned. His father is beating him and asking him to deal with it impartially. Weng Ling'er in the palace is pregnant, and official and private matters are mixed up. He looks a little tired.
On the other hand, Chu Jing'an, who was sent to inspect the granary outside the city, was still in high spirits.
"It's all about sharing the worries of my father. Is the eleventh brother's mission going smoothly?"
The granary outside the city is related to the stability of the capital. Does your father intend to train Chu Jing'an when he gives this job to Chu Jing'an?
After all, he is the legitimate son of the middle palace. Although his maternal family's roots are not in the capital, if the Xia family intends to support him, he is also a very powerful competitor.
"Of course, I don't dare to be careless about the errands assigned by my father!"
"I only found out what happened to Uncle Nine when I left the city. Third brother, you have been in the capital, why did you only come to visit?"
Chu Jingan asked a good question.
King Cheng rubbed his eyebrows.
"I've been too busy recently to get out of my way, and I'm also afraid of affecting Uncle Ninth's recovery."
Listening to his serious nonsense, Lian Suisui pursed his lips, and then quickly regained his serious expression.
"You guys sit down first, Xiaotao, and make some tea!"
King Cheng came to visit Chu Zhiyi. When he entered the room, King Cheng first looked at Chu Zhiyi.
