Blessed

Chapter 138 Stop Someone For Me
On the first day when Shen Xian left, Yuzhu was a little restless at home, wondering if there was telepathy, she always felt that something would happen to Shen Xian this trip.She couldn't stay at Shen's house, so she went to her parents' house in her free time and stayed at Jiang's house for dinner.

During the dinner, she asked Jiang Ansu, "Father, is there anything strange in the palace recently?"

Jiang Ansu shook his head, "After the Zuo family incident happened, the emperor imprisoned the queen mother in Shoukang Palace, and sent people to arrest Zuo Kun and bring him to justice."

Mu's family sighed, "From now on, the Zuo family may cease to exist, and I don't know what the Zuo governor thinks, but to do such unreasonable things..."

Yuzhu remained silent, planning to go to the palace tomorrow.

Early the next morning, Yuzhu went to the palace to see the concubine. The concubine was in pretty good health. She took Yuzhu to chat about the daily life, but nothing had changed in the palace. It would be good if Shen Xian came back.

Accompanying the concubine for lunch, Yuzhu went to visit her elder sister, nephew, and niece, and accompanied them to Youshi before returning to Shen's residence.

Another two days passed, and Yuzhu washed up and went to bed at night to rest. In a drowsy state, she dreamed of a misty forest with shadows everywhere.She was anxious and tried hard to see these figures clearly. When the fog cleared, she saw Shen Xian fighting with those people dressed as nomads. Kong Yiqing was also among them and was injured. It was only the two of them, and she couldn't see the other Jin Yiwei. There were too many foreigners, and Shen Xian gradually lost his strength and suffered some injuries.

Yuzhu was so distressed that she struggled to get up. The dream changed and she saw Shen Xian and Kong Yiqing hiding in a dilapidated temple surrounded by towering ancient trees. A knife wound, blood all over his body...

Yuzhu suddenly struggled out of the dream, and when she wiped her face, tears were streaming down her face, and she choked up uncontrollably.

The two night guard maids in the outer room heard the movement, and hurried over in their gowns. Haitang also lit the oil lamp, and Bai Ji opened the curtain. Seeing his wife sitting on the bed crying sadly, the two maids were terrified, "Madam, What's the matter with you, but you don't feel well, this servant will go and invite the doctor to come over."

Yuzhu shook her head, "Don't, I just had a nightmare, let me slow down for a while." The dream was too real, and she had already had such a dream once. When Shen Xian went to the clinic to close the battlefield, she had dreamed that he was tortured. Injured, he was indeed injured that time.This time she had such a dream again, Yuzhu couldn't help but not believe it, she was afraid that everything in the dream was real, maybe it had already happened, maybe it was about to happen.

In the dream, the forest was too big and thick with fog. Both of them were seriously injured, and they were deep in the ruined temple deep in the forest. They couldn't get out for a while. past.

Bai Ji said, "Girl, this servant will cook you a bowl of calming soup."

After Yuzhu drank the soothing soup, she couldn't sleep at all, tossing and turning until dawn, she had to go to the palace, this time the feeling was really wrong, Kong Yiqing disappeared, her husband was sent to search for someone, and was surrounded by Tupu people , No matter how you think about it, it's wrong.

Early the next morning, she took the sign and went directly to the palace to meet the concubine, there was still nothing unusual in the palace, and it was not easy for Yuzhu to tell the concubine her dream, it was a dream, and only she believed it.After chatting with the concubine for a while, the concubine suddenly said, "By the way, your brother has returned to Beijing and is currently in the emperor's study. Do you want to go over to see your brother later?"

"But Brother Xie?" Yuzhu asked.

The concubine nodded, "You can go directly to the emperor's side in a while, and you will also have lunch with your brother."

After talking with the concubine for a while, Yuzhu had something on her mind and was always absent-minded. The concubine only thought that she was too worried about Shen Xian.

When it was almost noon, Yuzhu went to the study of Emperor Ruiwu. The father-in-law went in and announced the sound, and soon came out. He smiled and said to Yuzhu, "Master Fuchang County, the emperor said, let you wait a moment, wait for the emperor and Mr. Xie Now that we're done talking, let's have a meal together."

Yuzhu blessed the body, "I also want to thank the emperor."

After a while, Emperor Ruiwu and Xie Che came out of the study. Emperor Ruiwu said with a smile, "I haven't seen Fuchang for a long time, these days are fine."

Yuzhu smiled and said, "The concubine is fine, thank you for your concern." She looked up at Xie Che again, he was the same as when he left at the beginning of the year, except that he was thinner.Meeting her gaze, Xie Che smiled at her.

Emperor Ruiwu said, "You two brothers and sisters haven't seen each other for some time, and I just need to find Xie Aiqing this afternoon, so you two brothers and sisters can accompany me to have lunch later."

When they went to Emperor Ruiwu's bedroom, the maids helped bring meals in. Emperor Ruiwu was a good emperor, and he didn't like extravagance on weekdays. The meals he used were four meat, two vegetables, two snacks and one soup. Xie Che and Yuzhu were Eating with him, the three of them sat by the snack table.

There was a palace maid helping the three of them to prepare the vegetables. Yuzhu frowned after taking the first bite. She looked up at the three palace maids who prepared the vegetables. Congyun's girl.

Seeing Yuzhu looking up at her, she couldn't help shaking her hands, Yuzhu's heart sank suddenly.

The taste of these meals is still the same as the meals eaten in the palace before. Only Yuzhu knows that there is a hint of bitterness in the mouth of the food, and every dish has this taste. Yuzhu's taste buds are the most picky. No, she can eat it, even though the taste of these meals has not changed much now, it does have a peculiar smell.

The maid named Congyun was also not quite right, Yuzhu did not dare to scare the snake, she barely ate some, when Emperor Ruiwu used it and was about to remove the food table, Yuzhu suddenly got up and knelt beside her, "Your Majesty, my concubine has something to say." begging."

Emperor Ruiwu looked at Yuzhu curiously, "Fuchang, get up quickly, just say what you want."

Yuzhu raised her head and looked at the maidservants and father-in-law around her in embarrassment. Emperor Ruiwu thought that what she asked was too private, so he waved the servants to leave.Yuzhu saw the maid named Congyun glance at the meal in front of them before leaving.

After everyone went out, Yuzhu got up and said in a low voice, "I also ask the emperor to forgive my concubine's recklessness, but what happened suddenly, what the concubine said may have offended the emperor."

Emperor Ruiwu's expression gradually turned serious, "You say so."

Yuzhu said, "Brother Xie is here too. Brother Xie should know that my taste buds are different from others since I was young, and I can taste any peculiar smell. Just now I tasted some other flavors in these meals. The concubine thinks that maybe Someone dropped something else in the meal."

Emperor Ruiwu's face turned cold, Xie Che's face was also a little dark, and he said, "Yuzhu's words are not false, she can indeed taste strange smells that ordinary people can't taste."

"You mean someone poisoned it?" Emperor Ruiwu said, "But every dish is tasted, and there are also silver needles to test the poison."

Yuzhu said, "The concubine can't be sure what is in this meal, but it is definitely not a good thing. Every meal has this taste. Please check it carefully. Besides, the world is full of wonders, and some poisons cannot be used with silver needles." Tested out."

Emperor Ruiwu and Xie Che knew very well that since they dared to tamper with meals like this, at least half of the people in the palace might have undergone a change, so it would be impossible to act rashly now.Emperor Ruiwu was also a little chilled, he didn't even know whether these were concubines in the palace or ministers trying to usurp the throne.

Yuzhu waited for a while but did not see Emperor Ruiwu speak, she continued, "Your Majesty, I am afraid that my husband's trip to Lizhou this time is also plotted by others. To be honest, my concubine dreamed last night that my husband and Mr. Kong were fighting with Tupu people." , was trapped in a ruined temple, and both of them were seriously injured. This kind of dream I dreamed once when I was young, and that time I dreamed that my husband was shot by an arrow at the gate of the dorm, and it was true, Chenqie I'm really worried, I want to go to Lizhou." It's impossible for her to go to Lizhou alone, and she can't tell her parents about this, they won't let herself take the risk to go to Lizhou.

Emperor Ruiwu looked solemn, "Did you still dream about something else?" He couldn't be too convinced about this kind of thing, but this Fuchang was lucky when he was young, and it was because of her string of Buddhist beads that he was saved. The crown princess dies, and then the crown princess can have such a fate.

This Fuchang is a blessed one, I am afraid that what she dreamed is also true.

Yuzhu shook her head, "I didn't dream of anything else."

Emperor Ruiwu thought for a while, "I'm afraid it won't work for you to go to Lizhou alone. Why don't you go to Lizhou with Xie Aiqing to find Shen Aiqing? I will give you a sign. When you arrive in Youzhou, you can borrow soldiers and go to find Shen Aiqing together." Shen Aiqing, all the soldiers in Lizhou are in the hands of Governor Zuo, I am afraid that they have already rebelled this time, so they can only go to pick up the troops from Youzhou."

Yuzhu asked suspiciously, "Is the emperor suspicious of the Zuo family?"

Emperor Ruiwu also knew that the current situation was dangerous, so he didn't intend to hide it, "I'm afraid I can't get rid of the relationship with the Zuo family. If I dare to tamper with my meal, I'm afraid I've prepared it long ago and dare to usurp the throne. The city gate is a line of defense. We must I have bribed General Yubayashi Qianniu of Zhuwei, and General Yubayashi Qianniu of Zhuwei is also a member of the Zuo family, but I don’t know who is behind the scenes. When you leave, I have my own plans, but you still need to go quickly Come back quickly, I am also worried that the matter this time will not be simple, after finding Shen Aiqing, I will bring my troops back to Beijing as soon as possible."

Xie Che said, "Why didn't your majesty send someone outside the city to summon soldiers to guard the capital?"

Emperor Ruiwu said, "To tell the truth, thank you Aiqing, I don't even know who is behind the scenes, and I don't even dare to hand over the tiger talisman to others." He naturally knew that this time the matter was complicated. People, people in the palace, he can't trust them at the moment.

Moreover, the palace is probably under the surveillance of that person, and if there is any movement from him, that person will seal the gate of the city.

Emperor Ruiwu looked at Yuzhu, "I still need Fuchang's help."

Yuzhu said, "If you don't dare to do it, your majesty might as well speak up."

Emperor Ruiwu said, "I can't trust the people in the harem at the moment, and the same is true for the ministers in the court. You are the head of Fuchang County and the Jiang family. Since you can tell me these things, I will also trust you. Leave it to you, you take it to your father, and let him take the tiger amulet to the barracks stationed outside the city to lead the troops into the city." Now he can only take a gamble, as all movements in the palace are currently under surveillance, and he believes that the Jiang family will Expressed his trust in the prince, but he could not order the prince to act, he would scare the snake, so he could only order the Jiang family.

Yuzhu was a little dazed, but she also knew that this was not the time to hesitate, so she got up and saluted, "The concubine takes orders!"

Emperor Ruiwu went to see Xie Che again, "Protect Fuchang on the way, I hope you will return safely, go and return early."

Yuzhu suddenly remembered the concubine, and told the concubine about the catastrophe that she had asked someone to criticize Emperor Ruiwu, and asked, "May I tell the concubine about this matter."

Emperor Ruiwu was stunned, he never thought that his mother and concubine entered the palace for him, he sighed and said, "No need, let's hide this from her in advance." Telling the concubine right now does not help, it just scares her.

The two exited the hall and looked at each other, Yuzhu felt her heart pounding, all this seemed to be a dream, and if she really wanted to covet the throne, the sky might change.

Yuzhu believed in the Jiang family, and also believed in the prince and queen. With the prince's feelings for the eldest sister, he could not be the person behind the scenes, not to mention that he was the prince, and the throne belonged to him. kind of way.

Xie Che said softly, "Let's go, let's go to Jiang's house first, and then go to Shen's house to pack things."

Yuzhu nodded, "Okay."

As soon as they left the hall, they met Concubine Mu Gui who was oncoming. The eyes of the three of them met. Concubine Mu raised the corner of her mouth and smiled lightly, "How come Fuchang has time to enter the palace today."

Yuzhu pursed her lower lip, "Today I went to the palace to visit the empress dowager, and when I learned that my elder brother also came to the palace, I came to say hello."

Concubine Mu's eyes fell on Xie Che again, she chuckled lightly, and said nothing, Yuzhu and Xie Che nodded slightly at him, and then left.

When the figures of the two disappeared, Concubine Mu said to the servant girl beside her, "Send someone to follow them, and come back to report any movement."

Yuzhu returned to Jiang's house with the tiger talisman. Jiang Ansu happened to be taking a rest today, so Yuzhu and Xie Che called him to the study.

Jiang Ansu smiled and said, "Ah Che returned to Beijing? How did you two meet?" Seeing that the expressions of the two were not right, he gradually frowned, "But what happened?"

Yuzhu took out the tiger talisman, and Jiang Ansu's expression changed, "Tiger talisman, Jiaojiao, why is the tiger talisman in your hands."

After telling what happened in the palace, Jiang Ansu's expression became completely serious, "You want to go to Lizhou with Ah Che? The journey is thousands of miles away. I can't rest assured that you are a girl."

Yuzhu said, "Daddy, I have to go this time."

Jiang Ansu was silent for a while, and finally stopped objecting. He knew the seriousness of the matter and had to find Shen Xian. He took the Tiger Talisman and looked at Xie Che, "Ah Che, take good care of your sister on the way."

Xie Che nodded, "Master, don't worry, I will."

After leaving Jiang's house, the two went directly to Shen's mansion, Yuzhu packed up her things and was about to leave, but Jiahe's maid came over, saying that Jiahe had something to look for Yuzhu.

After all, it was the elders, Yuzhu had to go there, she said to Xie Che, then turned and went to Jiahe's courtyard.

Sitting in the Xiaofeng Hall, Jiahe's face darkened when he saw Yuzhu coming in, "I heard you brought a man back! How decent is this? How can you bring a man back to the house? This is not ruining the tradition of our Shen family."

Yuzhu said kindly, "Mother misunderstood, that is my elder brother, I need to go on a long trip, elder brother will accompany me."

Jiahe was startled, and frowned, "Which elder brother of yours? And why are you going away?"

Yuzhu said, "Brother Xie, as for the matter of going away, my daughter-in-law has nothing to say now, and I will apologize to my mother when I come back."

Jiahe's face changed when he heard that, "You mean Xie Che? What kind of brother is he? He is just a child picked up by your master and has no blood relationship with you. What's the matter with you going out with him? Yuzhu , I can tell you, you are the daughter-in-law of our Shen family, and I am your mother-in-law. Even if I don’t care about you very much on weekdays, but you are not allowed to go out this time, you can just stay in Ah Xian and come back! "

Yuzhu said anxiously, "Mother, I really don't have time to talk to you, I must go out this time." After saying that, regardless of Jiahe's face, she lifted her feet and planned to leave.

Jiahe said coldly, "Hurry up and stop him!"
