Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 132 Phoenix Fate (1)

Ruan Linluo trembled slightly upon hearing this, and remained silent for a moment.

how should I do?what should I do?
Ruan Linluo's heart was in a mess, she just looked at her mother blankly, shook her head and said, "Daughter doesn't know..."

Zhu Yuanlan held back tears, her eyes showed a bit of sharpness, looked at her daughter's face, and said sternly: "If everything is a foregone conclusion, and there is no power to change it, then you have to follow the Queen Mother's wishes and live in the palace. The deep palace is secluded, there is a place that eats people without spitting out their bones. Once you enter, there is no turning back! Therefore, once Luoer enters the palace, you can no longer think about coming back. Unless you die, otherwise you will die for the rest of your life. You have to live there... So Luo'er, you have to be strong, fight hard, climb up, fight up, climb up to the highest position in the royal family all the way!"

Ruan Linluo's expression changed immediately after hearing this.

What does mother mean by this?Where is the highest position in the royal family?

Zhu Yuanlan pondered and said: "As a woman, there are two hurdles in life. The first hurdle is at the time of birth, and the second is to marry. A woman marrying a husband is equivalent to the second reincarnation in life. Mother I have never regretted anything in my life, but recently, my mother often regrets it. She regrets that she admired your father's family background and demeanor, and married him as a wife. Your father is a rare good person in this world, but it is a pity that he is noble and humble. He is the son of a concubine. Even if he is a hundred times better than your uncle, he cannot inherit the title. This is his fate. Your father is a man and has no chance of a second reincarnation, but you have... Luoer, you are a smart man My child, there are some things that you don’t need to be told by your mother. You can know what you know. What your parents can do is really limited. They will desperately fight with all their strength and try to find a way out for themselves. You are like this now, after entering the palace, no one can help you, you have to find out a way out for yourself, you know?"

After Ruan Linluo heard this, she blinked her tearful eyes and stroked her heart slowly, feeling more pain in her heart.

What the mother meant was to let her prepare for the worst.

She nodded aggrievedly, her eyes were still misty and pondered slightly, then bit her lip hard, and said in a low voice: "My daughter understands."

The setting sun is gradually sinking to the west, and the sunset glow is as bright as blood, slowly smearing a large area of ​​the sky.

When the evening was approaching, Ruan Zhengshan suddenly received a secret letter from the palace, saying that several princes from the outer city had suddenly entered the palace by order, and there seemed to be some movement in the palace.

Hearing this, Ruan Zhengshan quickly called his eldest son Ruan Dongsheng and second son Ruan Xiping to the study to discuss matters, and asked his family to prepare official uniforms and boots in case of emergencies.

It didn't take long for rumors to spread in the capital. Some said that the Holy One was seriously ill, and they were afraid that it might not happen.Some said that the prince personally led the imperial guards to force the emperor to abdicate, and even wrote the imperial edict for his accession to the throne. Some even said that the prince had already imprisoned the emperor in an attempt to usurp the throne.

All kinds of news flew back and forth in everyone's ears as if they had grown wings, making people panic.

After waiting for most of the night, there was no definite answer.

Ruan Xiping and his father and brother stayed up all night in the study, and Zhu Yuanniang and Ruan Linluo almost didn't close their eyes all night, squinting for a while near the early morning.

After Maoshi, the people in the palace finally came out with a shocking news.At the second watch last night, the Holy Majesty passed away in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and left a will to pass the throne to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who will ascend the throne today.

It took less than one night to change from the 23rd year of Yongchang to the first year of Yongming. Everything changed accordingly, which caught people off guard.

After Ruan Zhengshan heard the news, he immediately slumped on the seat, speechless for a while, and then changed into court clothes and prepared to enter the palace to express his condolences.

In this gamble, His Highness the Crown Prince completely defeated everyone, and became the biggest winner without a doubt.

Those who picked the wrong side and made the wrong bet before, now everyone is in danger, and they don't care about it. The first thing they do is take gold and silver, and flee the capital with their wives and relatives, but they don't know the four gates of the capital. It has already been locked, and all personnel are strictly prohibited from entering and leaving.

Under the national mourning, the whole country mourns together.However, the new emperor's ascension to the throne is a major event that is celebrated by the whole world. There are two heavens of sorrow and joy, and everything comes too suddenly.

The servants of the Ruan Mansion hurriedly removed the red lantern colored silk from the mansion, and replaced it with freshly pasted white lanterns and newly cut white silk.

But within two or three hours, the entire capital is completely white.

Ruan Xiping told Zhu Yuanniang the news at the first time. Although the two of them didn't talk too much, there was already a little relaxed expression on their brows and eyes.

God has eyes, I don't know if Ruan Linluo escaped a catastrophe.

Zhu Yuanlan weakly picked up the teacup and took a few sips.I just feel loose in my heart, and I can't tell what it feels like.

Although the current predicament is gone, the future predicament is still waiting there.

Once the sky changes, everyone will have to tremble three times, not to mention, a meritorious family like theirs will naturally be more involved.

Ruan Linluo stayed up all night, and in the early hours of the morning, she lay beside her mother to take a nap, but she couldn't sleep well, and woke up when she heard someone talking.

As soon as she woke up, seeing everyone lowered their eyes and said nothing, she suddenly became flustered, and after listening to her mother Zhu Yuanlan's detailed explanation, she was greatly relieved, and said in a trembling voice: "Mother, is my daughter saved? "

Zhu Yuanlan nodded repeatedly, covering her mouth, not wanting her to speak out, and said: "My son, we are fine for the time being."

Ruan Linluo burst into tears when she heard the words, and threw herself into her mother's arms, weeping: "Mother...Mother..."

The time needed to go from the abyss to the sky is only one night, and even she herself felt like a thrilling dream... For a moment, everyone burst into tears, and the woman next to her hesitated and took a step forward, saying: "Two Grandma, isn't this the time to cry? The mansion is about to prepare for the national funeral, and it's time for you to change your clothes and prepare to go to the palace with grandma to express your condolences."

Zhu Yuanlan is not a person who has no sense of propriety, so she immediately sorted out her emotions, put away her tears, and ordered the servant girl to bring water to wash and change her clothes.

After her mother left, Ruan Linluo sat quietly for a while, as if she hadn't recovered from the shock just now.

After a while, a little maid lifted the curtain and entered the room, holding a plain white filial dress in her hand.

"Miss, it's time to change."

Ruan Linluo came back to her senses slightly, looked at the white and clean filial piety, and felt for the first time in her life that this spotless white was so beautiful, it was so beautiful that people could hardly take their eyes off it, no matter how much they looked at it, they couldn't get enough of it... ...The news from the capital city spread back to the city of Dezhou in just one day, and the common people were terrified.

However, although everyone has doubts in their hearts, they dare not discuss privately, they can only speculate in their own hearts.

The Zhu family heard the news relatively early.When Mr. Zhu heard about this, he felt very pleased. He threw the scissors on the table, smiled coldly, and said with a hint of sarcasm in his tone: "This means that you will die if you do many injustices! Even if he is the emperor's old man In this way, his death is really timely!"

Zhu Feng cleared his throat and reminded: "Father, be happy if you are happy, don't say anything!"

Mr. Zhu raised his eyebrows and smiled: "I have nothing to say in my own home. The sky is high and the emperor is far away, not to mention that he is still dying. What am I afraid of him?"

Zhu Feng knew that the old man had been holding back a fire all the time, so he simply let him vent it, and when he had finished speaking and scolded enough, he said: "The crown prince is about to ascend the throne, those who impeached him earlier, I am afraid they will I have suffered. My son heard that King Jingrong is one of them..."

Zhu Feng's expression was extremely sudden, he was not filled with anger like his father, but he said in a calm tone: "As the saying goes, once the emperor and the courtiers. The prince has always been ruthless, and if King Jingrong takes the knife, the Qin family will inevitably suffer along with him." implicated!"

The relationship between Zhu and Qin is very close, so it is necessary to make preparations in advance.

The tree falls and the hozen scatter.The wall fell and everyone pushed.

Mr. Zhu has lived almost his whole life, and he is used to this kind of right and wrong.All the people in the world are the same, whether they are ordinary people or princes and nobles, there is only one word "benefit" in their eyes and hearts.

If it is beneficial, it will gather, and if it is not beneficial, it will disperse. This is the last thing that will last long.

"King Jingrong has indeed not been as good as before in the past few years. The prince is young and vigorous, and he has always been dissatisfied with his uncle. Now that the prince is on the throne, it will be a matter of time to get rid of this thorn in his side... The Qin family has been treated by King Jingrong for so many years. It's time to repay the favor. The world is impermanent, good and bad depend on each other, and when the world is changing, no one can save anyone, no one can help anyone, and they can only rely on themselves."

The Qin family is one of the four famous families in the capital, and its status is not trivial. Moreover, the Qin family has always produced beauties. When it comes to the daughters of the Qin family, it is a combination of beauty and wisdom.

But perhaps, there are advantages and disadvantages. The daughter of the Qin family is too outstanding, so it seems that the men of the Qin family are not outstanding.Without the support of heirs, it is impossible to rely only on marrying a daughter.

Zhu Feng understood his father's meaning, that is, don't ask questions, and never cause trouble easily.

Mr. Zhu leaned on the pillow, his legs were covered with a fox fur blanket, his face was exhausted, "During the national mourning period, everything at home is kept simple. I originally wanted to live a prosperous year, but it seems that I can't."

Zhu Feng nodded: "We can only feel aggrieved in these extraordinary times."

Mr. Zhu slowly closed his eyes, "As long as the whole family is safe and sound, tell your mother and wife the good news, so that they can feel at ease."

In the past two days, everyone has worried a lot about Lin Luo's affairs, and the atmosphere at home is also dull.

Zhu Feng took the words and went to explain the matter to the old lady. The old lady was very happy when she heard this, but immediately suppressed her mood. "Zhu Feng, hurry up and write a letter to your eldest sister to ask, how is the situation in the capital?"

Zhu Feng replied: "Son will write when he gets back."

Zhu Jun, who seldom speaks, couldn't help but say now: "I heard that the prince is a very cruel and merciless person. I'm afraid the world will change."

Zhu Feng said indifferently: "Whether he is a faint king or a tyrant, what does it have to do with us ordinary people?"
