Husband has a sweetheart

Chapter 171 Gives you a chance to choose again

At that time, Emperor Taichang was the first to rush into the capital and occupy the palace under the banner of King Qin. Emperor Anping was familiar with this operation, but it did not mean that he wanted other vassal kings to follow suit, so he was determined He refused to agree to let the vassal king lead troops to Beijing.

Letting the vassal king enter the capital is like inviting a wolf into the house. It is almost certain that Lu Wei was not driven away, but he was driven away first.

Since Emperor Anping refused to ask the vassal king for help, there were only two ways left.

The first is to use 20 imperial guards to fight against Lu Wei's 50 army. Don't count on Jin Yongxiu. If he returns to the capital for rescue, the King of Jiangxia will definitely chase after him and send his troops north to directly attack the capital. When the time comes, there will be several waves of troops. Happy meeting in Beijing.

Second, as Lu Wei said, the court sent Princess Duanshu and Mrs. Lu to him, which made Emperor Anping feel cowardly.As long as Lu Wei is still a minister of Daxia, he will not rebel easily. After all, no one wants to bear the dark history of rebellious ministers and traitors for generations.

The ministers all bowed their heads and fell silent.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the first road is impassable and is the worst possible outcome. It can’t even be called a fish dead and a net broken. Emperor Anping’s fish is dead and Lu Wei’s net is not necessarily broken. It’s just a bad reputation. A little bit.

Emperor Anping didn't want to take the second route either. He also wanted a hostage to control Lu Wei.

"Surround the Lu Mansion first!" Emperor Anping said, "Don't let anyone out!"

The news that Lu Wei was leading an army to attack the capital spread like wildfire. Looking across the territory of Daxia, he could not find a place where he could live and work in peace and contentment!Either war, heavy taxes and corvee, or both.

The desperate people's dissatisfaction and anger towards Emperor Taichang and Emperor Anping were growing day by day. The nursery rhyme "Emperor Taichang is not Taichang, Emperor Anping is not peaceful" was quietly spread in the streets.

Lu Wei's reputation also took a turn for the worse, from a national hero in the eyes of many people to a deliberately rebellious traitor.But Lu Wei's achievements are really dazzling, and not only does he have no bad deeds on weekdays, but he has a good official reputation in the eyes of the people. His loyal fans said that it was clearly Emperor Taichang who was unkind, and Lu Tongzhi shed blood for Daxia on the border. Sweating and killing barbarians with his head tucked into his waistband, Emperor Taichang detained Lu Tongzhi’s biological parents in the capital. Not enough, he also took advantage of them to lead troops to fight barbarians and protect his family and country with force in the name of the imperial edict. Take Mrs. Lu away.

How can it not chill the hearts of loyal ministers?

It is only natural for him to ask the court for his own mother and daughter-in-law.

As for Lu Dewen, everyone subconsciously ignored him.

ah?So it turns out that Lu Tongzhi’s biological father is still alive?Princess Duanshu lived in the nunnery, didn't she give salvation to her deceased husband?
Many students are signing a petition, asking the imperial court to return Lu Wei's mother and wife to Liangzhou so that the hero will not bleed and shed tears.

This matter was so noisy that the court could not come up with a solution for a long time. The ministers and people were panicking. With the speed of Lu Wei's army marching hundreds of miles a day, with a few more days of ink, they would be able to appreciate Lu Tongzhi up close in the capital. of style.

It was boiling outside but the sky was full, but it was still calm in Fansi Courtyard.

Until one day, after the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law played a game of chess, Duan Shu suddenly said: "I will continue to stay in the capital, and you can go back to Liangzhou."

Zhang Yuqing was startled, "Mother..."

Duan Shu slapped a piece on the chessboard, with a sense of indifference, as if what she was talking about was just as casual and simple as what to eat tonight. .”

"Daxia is already in turmoil." Zhang Yuqing said.

Duan Shu shook her head and smiled sarcastically, "Emperor Taichang and Emperor Anping, father and son, are too stupid to govern the country, and have brought our Fang family to this point... As long as someone can stabilize the situation, the ship of Daxia can continue to ride the wind and waves."

Zhang Yuqing stopped pursuing this issue and just said: "The emperor is still weighing the situation. In two days, when Lu Wei leads his troops to approach the capital, he will have no choice but to compromise and let us go."

"Silly boy! It's easy for me to leave." Duan Shu touched Zhang Yuqing's head, "But it means more for me to stay. The Emperor's wariness and guard against Lu Wei will not be so high, and I am in the capital. Is there any news? It will be delivered to you promptly.”

Zhang Yuqing felt uncomfortable, "But..."

"This is the best solution!" Duan Shu said emphatically, "I am Lu Wei's mother, and they are more willing to let me stay in the capital as a hostage. As long as Lu Wei is healthy, I will be fine in the capital!"

One is the mother who gave birth to him, and the other is the country girl who was forced to give birth to Lu Wei by the late emperor. She has not given birth yet. It is self-evident who is more important in Lu Wei's heart.As long as Lu Wei is still the commander of Liangzhou with a heavy army, the whole court will not dare to disrespect Duan Shu in the slightest.

"You go back, give birth to the child, and raise it well. If there is a chance in the future, quietly bring the child over to recognize me as your grandmother." Duan Shu reached out and touched Zhang Yuqing's cheek and said with a smile.

The sunlight shines on Duan Shu's face through the window lattice. Her eyes are gentle and kind, the golden steps on her temples are shining, and her face is gorgeous, just like a noble lady walking out of a painting of a lady, and she looks amiable.

At that moment, Zhang Yuqing's eyes suddenly turned red. She could no longer remember what An Ruxue looked like. Duan Shu made her feel her mother's warmth for a long time.

Just when the atmosphere in the capital was tense, Princess Duanshu took the initiative to stand up and said that she was old and a native of the capital. She still wanted to stay in the capital and was unwilling to go to the northwest. She should let her daughter-in-law go back to take care of Lu Wei. .

Lu Wei's mother said so, even Lu Wei couldn't fault it.

In this way, the situation has returned to the past. The court has Lu Wei's biological parents as hostages, and Lu Wei continues to serve the court and guard Liangzhou.

For a while, everyone began to praise Princess Duanshu for her understanding of righteousness and dedication to the country. She deserves to be a golden branch and jade leaf.

There were even many voices secretly writing critical articles, scolding Emperor Taichang for being a monster. Originally, Lu Wei's parents were in the capital and were under the supervision of the royal family. Emperor Taichang insisted on dragging his wife, who had not yet given birth, to the capital as a scapegoat. quality.

Making such a big fuss is a waste of people and money, and it's embarrassing!

Zhang Yuqing was still sick in everyone's eyes, but she was going back to Liangzhou immediately.

The Queen Mother said that she cared about the deep sisterly love between the Queen and Mrs. Lu, and granted the Queen permission to visit her sister in the Lu Mansion and return to her parents' home.

After a woman marries into the palace, there is almost no possibility of going out of the palace. Unless she follows her son to fief the land, it depends on the emperor's permission. It is a great honor to be able to go out of the palace to visit relatives.

Zhang Yuying left the palace with great pomp, bringing hundreds of maids and maids with her, as well as the Imperial Guards to clear the way. The procession stretched several streets.

The empress's coming message almost arrived at the same time as Zhang Yuying. Zhang Yuqing was writing a secret letter to his subordinates in Liangzhou at that time. He quickly stuffed the written letter into the drawer and accidentally got ink stains on his hands.

Duan Shu went to meet Zhang Yuying and said that the house was too small. If the queen wanted to see her cousin, she could just go in by herself. There was no need to bring anyone to serve.

Zhang Yuying has stayed in the magnificent palace for a long time. Looking at Fansiyuan now, she feels that it is just an ordinary place, secretly thinking that Zhang Yuqing's life is not that good.

The maid opened the bamboo curtain and Zhang Yuying entered the room.

Zhang Yuqing was wearing a large old burqa, her crow-green hair was simply tied up with a green bamboo hairpin, and her unpainted face had a kind of radiant beauty.

She sat at the table by the window, supporting her chin with her hand, and the edge of the table cleverly covered her bulging belly.The peach blossom petals drifted into the window with the wind and fell into the inkstone at Zhang Yuqing's hand.

Zhang Yuying sneered, "Sister Yuqing, I heard that you are sick. Are you feeling better?"

"TOEFL, it's almost done, don't delay your journey." Zhang Yuqing said while looking at the scenery outside the window.

Zhang Yuying looked around the room with disdain in her eyes. Zhang Yuqing's position as the second-ranking wife of the ruler was not as good as she imagined!
If Lu Weizhen likes her, can he let her live in such a miserable life?

Turning her eyes back to Zhang Yuqing, Zhang Yuying saw with sharp eyes that there were still ink marks on Zhang Yuqing's hands. In addition, there was an inkstone and two books on the table, and Zhang Yuying couldn't help but laugh.

"You don't have to learn from me everywhere." Zhang Yuying smiled.

Zhang Yuqing couldn't understand for a moment, so he smiled slightly and his eyes were guarded.

"Do you think that Lu Wei will like you just because you have written well and can read and write poems, which is similar to me?" Zhang Yuying approached Zhang Yuqing and asked in a low voice.

Zhang Yuqing put her heart back into her stomach, and tried her best to maintain a polite smile.

"It's not too late for you to learn now... You are also in good luck!" Zhang Yuying said with emotion, "Speaking of which, it is all thanks to me that you have the destiny you have today. Otherwise, you, a country girl, can marry Lu Wei? Can you become a The wife of a second-grade official?"

Shouldn't you marry a farmer with your face turned to the loess and your back turned to the sky, follow the farmer to farm during the day, and wash clothes and take care of your parents-in-law and children at night?

She is really Zhang Yuqing’s great benefactor!

"Now that you have such a good mother-in-law like Duan Shu, she would rather stay in the capital than let you go back!" Zhang Yuying explained her great kindness to Zhang Yuqing one by one, and she was moved.

Zhang Yuqing took a deep breath and nodded, "Indeed, my mother is very good to me."

"But, it doesn't matter how nice Duanshu is to you! A woman must always rely on her husband! In my opinion, Mrs. Lu should temper her temper in the future and spend more time trying to please Lu Wei. This is better than anything else! Fight for it! Give birth to a son as soon as possible, so that the family fortune created by Lu Wei will not fall into the hands of a bastard, and you will have no place to cry!" Zhang Yuying laughed so hard that her branches trembled.

Zhang Yuqing couldn't bear it anymore, "I don't need to please Lu Wei. He loves me and respects me. It's too late to please me!"

Zhang Yuying was choked. She couldn't believe that Zhang Yuqing could be so shameless as to say such a thing.

"Why, are you envious?" Zhang Yuqing asked.

"I'm envious? I, I, what do I have to envy!" Zhang Yuying stammered.

Zhang Yuqing looked up at Zhang Yuying with a sly smile, "Queen, if you are not envious, what are you feeling guilty about? Look, you can't even speak clearly!"

"Bold!" Zhang Yuying was anxious and angry, "I'm talking nonsense, I'm sorry! Do I, the majestic Queen, need to envy you, a country girl? You are always good at pretending and telling big lies!"

Zhang Yuqing sighed: "Why don't you believe it? I am Lu Wei's wife. If he doesn't love me, who else can he love? Does he love you?"

Zhang Yuying's expression changed instantly, and she wanted to go forward and cover Zhang Yuqing's mouth, "What nonsense are you talking about! If you don't want your life, I want my life!"

"Oh, how dare you, the queen of the mother-in-law world? You can see that she is often criticized by the emperor!" Zhang Yuqing smiled very maliciously.

"Shut up!" Zhang Yuying said with an ugly face.

Emperor Anping had a cruel temperament and liked to kill people. Even the concubines in the harem were killed by him. It was not Xinmi, and many people knew it.

As a queen, even though she was blessed with the title of Phoenix Ming's Daughter, she lived in fear all day long, for fear of offending Emperor Anping.

"Sister Yuying, if Kude hadn't identified you as Feng Ming's daughter back then, you and Lu Wei would have been married long ago, so what would have happened to me!" Zhang Yuqing said.

"What are you talking about?" Zhang Yuying scolded, but she couldn't help but feel melancholy in her heart.

Zhang Yuqing leaned forward slightly and said with a half-smile: "You know Lu Wei. He is a very gentleman. He is very gentle to me, a country girl. You have been childhood sweethearts with him for so many years, and you are going to become friends with him." Husband and wife, isn’t he treating you better?”

Zhang Yuying's heart jumped loudly.

Lu Wei must be better to her!There is no doubt about this!What could Zhang Yuqing, a vulgar country girl, do to compare with her?If there was no such thing as the daughter of Phoenix Life, and she got married to Lu Wei, she would now be a second-grade wife of the ruler. Although she is not as beautiful as the Queen, it is a great benefit!
I have never seen the Emperor and Queen Mother so fearful of Lu Wei!
Besides, Lu Wei was polite and courteous to women, unlike the pervert Emperor Anping!
It is impossible to say that Zhang Yuying has no regrets in her heart.She had imagined more than once what a happy life she would live if she married Lu Wei and showed Lu Wei's love and consideration to her!
Zhang Yuqing looked at Zhang Yuying's changing expression and asked again: "Are you regretful?"

Zhang Yuying, who was told the central matter, was startled, and she denied it flatly, "Nonsense! I have nothing to regret!"

Zhang Yuqing smiled slightly, raised his chin and looked at the panicked Zhang Yuying, as if he was teasing a stupid starling, "Sister Yuying, if you regret it, I will give you a chance to start over, do you want it?"

"What chance of a comeback?" Zhang Yuying asked nervously.

Zhang Yuqing pointed his finger outside, "When the carriage to pick me up arrives later, you pretend to be kidnapped by me and get on the carriage with me. The Imperial Guard will not make any move for fear of hurting you. Lu Wei is sent to take care of you." You are just outside the capital. I am absolutely sure that I can deliver you to Lu Wei unscathed."

"As long as you are by Lu Wei's side, you will be safe. The emperor doesn't want Lu Wei to rush into the capital and kick him off the dragon chair directly, so he can only recognize him by pinching his nose." Zhang Yuqing said with a smile, "If you follow him, you will be safe." Some people will beat you and scold you. You know, Lu Wei is a good person, a nostalgic person, and he will treat you as well as before. "

Zhang Yuying clenched her fingers and widened her eyes.

Zhang Yuqing's voice was full of confusion, "How about it? Do you want to meet your beloved brother?"

　Sweetheart Theater:
　　Ye Yu: I think the way you are jealous is a bit special. Others will go crazy if they are jealous, but it will kill you if you are jealous.Lu Wei will be played to death by you sooner or later.

　　Zhang Yuqing: How could I be jealous? Which of your eyes could see that I was jealous?I tell you that you can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense. I'm so jealous of Lu Wei that I'm laughing to death!

　　Ye Yu: Forget it if you don’t admit it, I’m too lazy to argue with you.Having said that, aren't you afraid that Zhang Yuying will agree?Will you really take her to find Lu Wei then?

　　Zhang Yuqing (slapping the table): Impossible!Absolutely impossible!
　　Ye Yu: You still don't admit that you love Lu Wei, look at this sea of ​​jealousy!

　　Zhang Yuqing: When I say impossible, I mean that it is impossible for Zhang Yuying to follow me. I know who she is. How could she give up the throne of the queen!Even if you get the hardest beating, you still have to wear the heaviest crown.

　　Ye Yu: She is already in a miserable state, there is no need for you to bully her like this!

　　Zhang Yuqing: Are you being biased?Why didn't you say anything about her when she yelled at me to imitate her to please Lu Wei?Is she so intimidating to others?I almost vomited out all the food I ate last month!
