Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 321 Born to be a Queen

The Zhu family has no official title, so it is reasonable to be implicated by it. The most serious thing is nothing more than ransacking the house and confiscating it.But if the nine clans are implicated, the whole family, old and young, will lose dozens of lives, which will be dangerous.

The king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die, let alone these little people.

Accompanied by Zhu Jintang's sigh, Shen Yuechen suddenly thought of the empress, and remembered her resolute expression when he saw her before, and couldn't help feeling a little bit of hope in his heart. The power in the capital is so intricate, how could it be so easy to kill him? It can be cut clean and clear.

Ruan Linluo is so transparent, she won't admit defeat easily.

For some reason, Shen Yuechen always felt that now was not the time to despair.

In the early morning, when Shen Yuechen got up, it was not yet Yin time, and it was pitch black outside the window.

As soon as she got up, Zhu Jintang beside her also woke up. Shen Yuechen insisted on letting him sleep a little longer, but Zhu Jintang refused, and sat up with his arms propped up.

Shen Yuechen freshened up first, and then came to take care of him washing his face and rinsing his mouth.

After the two of them packed up, it was still dark outside.

Shen Yuechen wanted to take care of Brother Xuan, so he got up early.But Zhu Jintang got up so early, but there was absolutely no need for anything.

Zhu Jintang got up so early in order to see his father and Zhu Jinlun.

It has been so many days since the coup in the capital, while the family members were shocked, they should have reacted and prepared.

Although Zhu Jintang was recuperating, when he fully recovered, the first thought that flashed through his mind was to come up with countermeasures to protect his family.

However, before they thought of a surefire solution, there was already movement in the capital.

After Li Huan ascended the throne, decrees were issued one after another like flowing water. First, the title of emperor was abolished, and "Da Zhou" was changed to "Da Xi".Afterwards, another decree demoted Li Zheng, who was already in name only, to a commoner, and canceled all military power in his hands. All Imperial Guards must set off to return to Beijing immediately. If they do not return, they will be punished as treason immediately. .

Li Zheng was abolished, and the crown prince was also demoted to a commoner. After the full moon, he had to leave the palace and be sent to Qiuhong Temple to become a monk.

Li Huan left the prince alive not out of kindness, but for another reason.

Less than two days later, there was a big exchange of blood among all civil and military officials.

In addition to the official title, Duke Jing's mansion lost his title, cut off his salary, and only remembered his meritorious service before he could keep the mansion.

Having said that, in fact, it is no different from house arrest and quietness.

Those who originally supported Li Zheng, even though they wanted to follow suit, were removed from their official positions one by one.Shen Yuechen's father, Shen Zhiyun, was also implicated, and was demoted from a fourth-rank Beijing official to a ninth-rank magistrate.

In the capital city, there are many people in his situation, and the dream of the capital city was shattered overnight.

Those officials who used to have great glory turned into downcast people in the blink of an eye. They left the capital with their families and their mouths, and the roads out of the city were filled with traffic and horses.

All the news that should come came, but there was no news about Ruan Linluo.

After hearing these things, Zhu Yuanlan's face was full of panic, and she muttered to herself: "What about the empress? What about the empress?"

The old lady held her hand tightly, "Calm down and wait for two more days. Now it seems that no news is the best news."

After listening to her mother's words, Zhu Yuanlan pursed her lips and nodded slightly.

After the hour passed, the servant girl brought up the fried medicine, and Zhu Jintang drank it without feeling hot at all.

After dinner, he called Shen Yuechen aside, and said in a deep tone: "I have something I want to discuss with you.

"

Seeing that he was so serious, Shen Yuechen straightened his back slightly and said, "Sir, tell me."

Zhu Jintang gently caressed her hand, and murmured slightly: "Today, I had a little discussion with my father and my second brother, and decided to ask you to find a place to avoid the limelight."

Shen Yuechen had long expected that he would have such a plan, but when he actually heard him say it, he still felt shocked and surprised as if he was unprepared.

Shen Yuechen moved his lips, but didn't speak, just waiting for him to finish speaking first.

"A lot of things have happened recently. For the sake of safety, you and the children should find a place to hide first, and see how the situation is? Let's have a long-term plan and make plans."

If it was not a last resort, Zhu Jintang would not open his mouth to say such a thing.

Shen Yuechen's first reaction was not to refuse, but took a deep breath and said, "Does this have to be the case?"

Zhu Jintang patted her hand, and said in a deep tone: "How many things are there in the future? No one can predict it, so the only way to do it now is the most reasonable."

Shen Yuechen naturally didn't want to leave, but she couldn't trust the children to others.

"What about the uncle? Will the uncle go with us?"

Zhu Jintang shook his head slightly: "My father and I will stay. We can't have no one in the family to control the overall situation. Moreover, my current situation is not suitable for going out."

Shen Yuechen frowned upon hearing this, bit her lower lip lightly, and did not speak for a long time.

The two looked at each other silently, as if they wanted to say a thousand words, but they didn't know where to start... He saw the sadness that was suppressed on her face, and she also saw the deep sadness on his face. reluctantly.

Shen Yuechen is not a person who has no importance in his heart, the more it is like this, the more he can't be arrogant.It is naturally important for the family to be together, but the children are still so young, we have to plan for them.

Zhu Jintang was also reluctant, and gently held her by the wrist, bringing her into his arms, silently feeling the churning thoughts in her heart and feeling slightly sad.

The two sat snuggled up, fingers intertwined, quietly waiting for the dawn.

The days of getting together are always too short, too short.However, now that things have been decided, it is time to start preparing step by step.Any more hesitation will only delay the effort.

Shen Yuechen meditated all night, and the next morning, she called Chunming Cuixin to her, and asked them to start preparing their luggage.

Chun Ming and Cui Xin were slightly startled when they heard the words, they shook their heads, and nodded.

In the Zhu family, apart from the old man and the old lady, only Zhu Feng and Zhu Jintang were left behind.The rest of the people have to temporarily go outside to avoid it.

Li Shi originally wanted to stay, but the old lady told her: "Is this the time when you are acting on your own will? How can Yuechen take care of four children by himself? The children are still young, so leaving home suddenly like this must cause a lot of discomfort. You take good care of it, when the limelight is over and the matter is over, our family will still be reunited."

After listening to the old lady's persuasion, Li could only nod with tears.

There are indeed a lot of things to prepare, and it is said that the preparations are not complete in half a month.However, it is not too late, the old man sent a message, just let them keep everything simple, try to bring as much soft and silver notes as possible, and for the remaining large and cumbersome antique jades, just bring a few pieces with you, don't worry Don't be too greedy, take everything and take everything.

After all, money is an external object, and human life is the most important thing.This time, they hid out to avoid the limelight, the most important thing is to keep a low profile.Therefore, those things that are too conspicuous are the most unacceptable. If they are targeted by people with malicious intentions, wouldn't it be even more troublesome.

After hastily preparing for a few days, a piece of news came from the capital, which stunned everyone in the Zhu family.

Their empress, Ruan Linluo, was actually a queen.As soon as this decree came out, the whole country was in an uproar, and many people even thought it was extremely absurd.

After Li Huan ascended the throne, he cleaned up many people step by step, and the memorials demanding the execution of the Yuan Queen Ruan Linluo were also one after another, but Li Huan just ignored it and deliberately avoided talking about Ruan Linluo.

With such an ambiguous attitude from him, the courtiers caught the clues and began to secretly speculate on some clues.

At the beginning, Ruan Linluo was personally selected by the Empress Dowager to enter the palace, and it was said that she was born as a phoenix and was born to be a queen.

Perhaps, the new emperor Li Huan also cared about such rumors, that's why he was so fascinated by her and loved her so much... Li Zheng, who abdicated and fled, is now in danger. It is said that he fled to England with a group of cronies. In Zhouzhou, although Li Huan decreed that he was demoted to a commoner, on the surface it was to spare his life, but in fact, he still wanted to kill the weeds behind the scenes.

Li Zheng is only dying now, no matter where he flees, there will always be people from the court chasing and killing him behind him, and he must take his head before he is willing to be reconciled.

Ruan Linluo was imprisoned in Shuiyue Palace by Li Huan for more than ten days. No one knew how she survived. The maids and eunuchs around her were all killed one by one.The entire palace was as lifeless as a cold palace. Li Huan didn't leave a single trusted person for her, and even the crown prince was taken away by someone and sent out of the palace overnight.

Li Huan only left a will and a foot of white silk for Ruan Linluo.

If she insists on seeking death, then on the day she dies, the prince will also die here.If she doesn't want to die, she must obey the will and be re-established as queen.

Being the queen again... This sudden news did not bring any joy to the Zhu family, but instead made everyone feel at a loss.

Zhu Yuanlan was even more puzzled, she cried several times, and was in a hurry to prepare her bags and rush back to the capital.

As soon as this happened, Zhu Jintang, who had originally arranged for his family to travel, felt a little hesitant.

It stands to reason that it was a great thing that Ruan Linluo was able to escape from the dead.However, no matter how kind-hearted, tolerant and merciful the new emperor Li Huan is, he will not make a queen who is from the previous dynasty his queen. .

The Zhu family went up and down, only Shen Yuechen's reaction was a little calmer.She seemed to have a premonition, but she didn't expect such a turnaround and such a dramatic thing to happen.

Thinking about it carefully, Ruan Linluo is only 17 years old this year, and she is in the best years of her life.Moreover, with her appearance, temperament, character, and talent, everything is invincible... Therefore, if Li Huan is really attracted to her, it is not impossible.

The relationship between a man and a woman is inherently mysterious... What's more, according to Ruan Linluo's current situation, she has no choice at all.

Faced with such a strange situation, Old Master Zhu spoke out again, intentionally letting Shen Yuechen and others leave home, for the time being, the most important thing right now is to send Zhu Yuanlan and Ruan Shilin back to Beijing, and see what the Ruan family's attitude is. good.

Hearing this, Shen Yuechen felt relieved, if he could not leave, that would be the best.She was reluctant to leave this home, and even more reluctant to leave Zhu Jintang.

The chariots and horses that were originally prepared for the second room of the eldest room were just to relieve Zhu Yuanlan's anxiety.
