Qing Fu Jin

Chapter 153 Aftermath
Guo Jiashi took Ling Bo's hand and helped her to sit on the kang, being careful all the way.

Ling Bo said uncomfortably: "Emiang, I'm fine, Ama is still here, how can I sit still."

She wanted to get up, but was held down by Guo Jiashi.

"Be careful, I haven't slept well in the past few days." Guo Jiashi refused to let her get up, and sat beside her while holding her arm.

Ling Bo looked at Yarjiang A anxiously.

Yaerjiang sat on the armchair opposite, and said with a smile: "You just sit down, so that your mother can feel at ease."

Ling Bo had no choice but to agree, and only then did he scan the entire room.

In addition to Yaerjiang'a and Guo Jia's, Xilinjueluo's and An Zhuxian also came.Delong was sitting on a chair against the wall, with a thin blanket on his legs. His legs can now walk upright normally, but the speed is much slower than ordinary people, and usually these legs cannot be exposed to cold or wind.

Ling Bo didn't expect that everyone was waiting for her to come back, and besides being moved, he was also very heartwarming.

"The person who hijacked you didn't make things difficult for you, did he? I lived in the palace yesterday, did the imperial doctor see it? Is there any injury? How is the fetus? Did you prescribe an anti-fetal medicine for you?" Guo Jiashi started It's just a series of questions.

Bo Zhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Emiang, you ask so many questions at once, which one do you want her to answer first?"

Ling Bo also smiled and said: "Don't worry, Er Niang, the imperial doctor has seen all of them, I am not injured, the child is fine, we are all fine, mother and child are safe."

Guo Jiashi was still worried, and continued to ask for details, and Xilin Jueluoshi also surrounded Lingbo to ask questions.

Bozhe scratched his head, feeling very helpless for the woman's trivial care.

But Yaerjiang just shook his head, beckoned him over, and said, "Let's go out and talk."

Bo Zhe nodded, and the father and son went out together.

Unintentionally, Delong was left alone.But he didn't show any displeasure at being left out, he just smiled and watched a group of women chattering in the room.

"Brother, do you feel impatient?"

An Zhuxian walked up to Delong and said with a smile.

Delong shook his head and said: "The warmth at home is so rare, how can I be impatient."

An Zhuxian sighed inwardly, the elder brother had been homeless for many years, and he finally returned home, but because of a leg injury, he could only be trapped in his own small yard. For him, such a warm scene is indeed very rare and precious .

"Brother's legs are already getting better. As long as you keep practicing, you will be able to move like ordinary people in the future. When you were a child, everyone said you were smart. Now that you are back home, your body is getting better and better. You must have a bright future in the future." .”

Deron just smiled gently.

An Zhuxian's words, although there are elements of consolation, are also true.

When Delong was away, there was only one Bozhe in Prince Jane's mansion. Now that the eldest son has returned and recovered his health, it is natural that he must make contributions.

The speaker has no intention, the listener has the heart.

Guo Jiashi was originally circling around Ling Bo, her ears were sharp, but she also heard An Zhuxian's words, and couldn't help being moved.

"Mother, what's the matter?"

Ling Bo noticed that Guo Jiashi had suddenly lost his voice, so he couldn't help asking.

Guo Jiashi recovered and said with a smile, "It's all right."

Ling Bo held her hand and said: "Emiang hasn't slept well these days, she must be very tired. Now that my daughter-in-law has returned safely, Emiang doesn't have to worry anymore, she should go back and have a good rest."

Guo Jia was about to speak, but Xilinjueluo had already persuaded him: "That's right, Fujin should also take care of himself, besides, Young Fujin has just returned home, so he must clean up and tidy up, why don't we let Xiu Shu Ruidong?" They waited on him, and my concubine helped Fujin to rest for a while to recuperate."

An Zhuxian heard it from over there, thought they were about to leave, so she hurried over to wait.

Yaerjiang and Bozhe finished talking outside, lifted the curtain and came in, saw a group of girls still gathered together, said: "My wife just came back, I can't say anything later, you are not made of iron, go Rest."

Then Guo Jia stood up, told Ling Bo to rest, and told Xiushu and Ruidong to take care of her carefully. After explaining, Xilin Jueluo and An Zhuxian helped her away one by one.

Delong saw that Yaerjiang had something to say to Ling Bo when he drove Guo Jia away, so he also resigned and asked his servants to help him go out.

In the end, only Bozhe, Yaerjiang'a, and Lingbo were left in the room. Xiushu and Ruidong both had good eyesight. They saw that the masters were going to talk, and when they served hot tea, they retreated wisely. Just keep watch outside the door.

Only then did Yaerjiang ask Ling Bo, "You have been held hostage for so many days, so you must know what's going on. The Sichuan corruption case is about to be investigated, and all parties and factions are ready to move. The key is the emperor's attitude. Today In the morning, Bo Zhe said that the emperor summoned you, what did he tell you?"

Ling Bo adjusted his sitting posture, straightened his back, and replied: "The emperor didn't say much, he just asked if I had been made things difficult during the past few days when I was held hostage, and also asked about Xu Zhao's affairs. It's just that I'm just a hostage , I don’t know much, so I can only tell what I know. The emperor comforted me and let me out.”

"Oh?" Yarjan Ah pondered.

Bo Zhe said: "Think about it, did the emperor say anything special?"

Ling Bo thought for a while and said, "I didn't say anything special, but..."

"But what?" Yarjan asked.

Ling Bo frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Although the emperor didn't say anything special, I have a feeling."

"What do you feel?"

"The emperor doesn't seem to want to mention Xu Zhao's corruption and bribery. When he asked me, he only asked about the circumstances of being held hostage. He didn't ask about Xu Zhao's crimes in the corruption case, as if he was deliberately avoiding it."

Bozhe and Yaerjiang looked at each other, as if they were thinking about Kangxi's intentions.

Ling Bo saw that they had no conclusions for a while, and it was inconvenient to disturb their thoughts. As soon as the atmosphere fell silent, she felt a little unable to concentrate, and her spirit began to slacken.

Yaerjiang frowned and thought about it for a while, and saw the tiredness on her face by mistake, and then remembered that she had just returned from the calamity, and said, "It's good to have nothing to do, don't worry about these things. Bozhe, take good care of me." Your daughter-in-law, Ama will leave first."

"Yes."

The young couple watched Yaerjiang go out.

Only then did Bo Zhe turn around and support Ling Bo's shoulders and said, "First ask Xiu Shu and Rui Dong to come to wash and change your clothes. I'll go to Prince Yong's mansion to lie down and be back soon."

Ling Bo knew that he must go to Prince Yong's Mansion to discuss business with the fourth elder brother, so of course he would not stop him.

After Bo Zhe left, Xiushu and Ruidong came in to help her wash.

Hot water and hot soup have already been prepared. Ling Bo has a big belly now, and it is very inconvenient to move. He has to rely on the help of these two girls to wash his hair and take a bath.

Although I slept in the palace last night, I was still a little nervous and didn't sleep well. I got up early in the morning and came out of the palace all the way without much rest.Ling Bo soaked in the bathtub and fell asleep without knowing it.

The two girls didn't dare to wake her up, so they quietly cleaned her body, took her out of the bathtub while she was in a daze, changed into clean clothes, and helped her to sleep in the inner room.

By the time Bozhe came back, it was already noon.

As soon as Ling Bo woke up, he saw Bo Zhe. There was no hesitation on his face, and he thought that the doubts in his heart had been resolved through communication with the fourth elder brother.

After lunch and taking a short nap, Ruidong reported that it was Wuzhu and Li Fangcao who came to visit her.Ling Bo was surprised for a moment that these two people would come together.

Wuzhu is just newly married, wearing a plum red flag dress, her face is full of spring and romance, it is obvious that the husband and wife love each other.

Li Fangcao doesn't wear her Annan clothes now. In fact, after she arrived in Beijing, she seldom wore Annan clothes. Now that she is married to Fourteenth Elder Brother, she has to follow the Romans in basic necessities of life. If it weren't for the complexion on her face She is darker than ordinary women, and when others see her, they can't tell that she is not from the Central Plains.

The two of them entered the door hand in hand, Ling Bo smiled and said, "Why did you two come together?"
Both Wuzhu and Li Fangcao were her old friends, they didn't need other seats, they just took off their shoes and got on the kang, and the three of them sat next to each other.

Xiu Shu and Rui Dong busily brought over hot almond tea and snacks.

Wuzhu said: "You don't know, you were kidnapped at my wedding, there were so many people at that time, I'm afraid the whole capital knew about it, and then there was a search and arrest in the whole city, and there was a fire in the Huichun Hall. I was so worried about you. After all, Ma Wu came back yesterday and said that he had rescued you, but he entered the palace again. Originally, I said I would come to see you in the morning, but I just thought that it might not be so early for you to leave the palace, so I waited until Afternoon. I didn’t make an appointment with her, but I just met her at the gate, so it’s also called Encounter Road Narrow.”

Ling Bo laughed and said: "Why is the road narrow for Yuanjia, she is your sister-in-law now anyway."

Li Fangcao pursed her lips and said, "Forget it, she doesn't look like a big aunt. I married Fourteenth Brother, so it has nothing to do with her."

Wuzhu glared at her angrily.

Seeing that the two of them quarreled when they met, Ling Bo responded to Wu Zhu's statement that the road to the enemy is narrow, and he couldn't help but find it funny.

Naturally, the two first asked about Ling Bo's physical condition and learned that she was fine. On the one hand, they were glad, but on the other hand, they also lamented the tenacious vitality of the little elder brother or little Gege in her belly.As he talked, he started talking nonsense.

"It's not a small matter this time. The prisoner who held you hostage is Xu Zhao, a fellow magistrate in Jiading, Sichuan. Huang Ama personally interrogated him last night." Wu Zhu knocked a melon seed and put it in her mouth. She is Ma Wu's wife. , Naturally know these details, "I heard that the evidence in Xu Zhao's hand is all pointing to the Eighth Master, and this has fallen into the hands of Huang Ama, I am afraid that the life of the Eighth Master will be difficult."

Li Fangcao didn't know much about the twists and turns, so she asked, "Why is it difficult?"

Ling Bo also raised his spirits and said, "Did you hear some rumors?"

Wu Zhu was about to say something when a little girl lifted the curtain and came in and said something to Xiushu, who then came over and said, "Shao Fujin, Sifujin and Bafujin are here."
