Chapter 160 Refuge
Although he doesn't like the queen, Li Chujun is her real grandson.

"Hey, Qin Wen colluded with the enemy and treasoned the country before, so you had an opinion on this child. Now that the incident happened, you also know what blood is thicker than water." The Queen Mother gave Li Fengyi an angry look, completely forgetting that It was she who ordered the mother and son to be left in the cold for two days.

"What the queen mother said was that when Chu Jun's injury healed, I would let him return to his post." Said that he had no shame and personal leave, Li Fengyi has always been a loving father, and he was naturally disturbed to see his son injured because of him.

"Well, that makes sense. But the third prince, you have to be careful, don't let him get too complacent, after all, it's not something of a good background." Even if there are only two grandchildren, it doesn't affect the empress dowager's dislike for the third prince. There is no way, Li Chucheng's mother was not a drafted concubine, but a court lady.

There are also three, six, and nine grades of maids in the palace. Most of the high-ranking ones are ministers or concubines from the prince's family. They enter the palace as errands to do some delicate and light work.As for those brought in by ordinary families, they can only do some jobs that are shameful in front of the master, such as sweeping and dusting.

Li Chucheng's mother is a sweeping maid. She was originally a sweeping maid in the palace of the first concubine Yan Guifei. Before entering the palace, she was just a girl from an ordinary farmer's family. .

After entering the palace, she has been serving Concubine Yan. Concubine Yan is also generous to her servants. The emperor went there when Concubine Yan was pregnant with the crown prince.After Linxing, she was named an official woman, and later she was named Cainv after Li Chucheng was born.

Birth is comparable to life in the palace, and Li Chucheng never disputed it, and because of this indisputability, he did not arouse the resentment of the emperor and queen mother.

"Mother, Cheng'er is not a child now, and it's not a good thing if he is too biased. I think that if it is possible in a hundred years, I can make him a king. At least he is my son." These days Li Fengyi said to Li Chu Cheng was extremely satisfied, he was neither arrogant nor impetuous, he advanced and retreated in a moderate manner, very much like a prince back then.

Her own son opened his mouth, but the queen mother didn't insist. Remembering that there were only two grandsons, the queen mother became worried again, "Nowadays, there are many concubines in the harem, but none of them are born. The emperor might as well consider the selection of concubines. .”

There has been no good news from the harem for at least ten years. Although Concubine Li is the most favored, her stomach hasn't moved.

"That's fine, but Empress Mother, I'm afraid that this draft can't only select the concubine to enter the palace, but also find candidates for the main concubine and side concubine for the two princes."

Li Chujun is eighteen or nineteen, and Li Chucheng is sixteen. It's a bit outrageous not to have a concubine at this age.

"That's right, if you don't tell me, I still treat them as children." The Queen Mother smiled and set a date, "Nanzhu and the diplomatic mission will come in August, let's wait for the mission to go to the draft. But for the two The prince's concubine can refer to it in advance."

Li Fengyi said yes, remembering that the Empress Dowager had just said that the Jingchenghou's Mansion was retiring, and remembering that Li Chujun had mentioned that he wanted to marry Chu Lingyue back then, his mind moved, and he pressed it again.

In Xishan, according to Chu Lingyue's idea, Brother Luo arranged for people to disguise themselves as them and leave the village. After a few days, no one was watching here.

After a few days of silence, Brother Luo went out for a walk, and came back with another message.

"What, the emperor has returned to Beijing?" Murong Jing's body has already regained its complexion. I don't know if it is the effect of the fruits picked by Yaohu every day. In the past few days, he has been able to sit up and his hands have strength.However, the area below the chest was still numb, with no feeling at all.

"Yes, I heard that even the Second Prince was injured when he was assassinated in the palace." Brother Luo scratched his head, not understanding this matter very much.

Every year the royal family would go to Xishan to escape the summer heat, and usually they would stay until the beginning of August. It was a bad idea to go back early because of an assassination, but no one else in Xishan had the ability to assassinate the emperor except the people in their village who knew a little bit of kung fu.

"I'm afraid it's the second prince's bitter scheme." The three gathered around the stone table, and Chu Lingyue made a bold guess.Based on her understanding of Li Chujun, he is not the kind of person who sits and waits to die, nor is he the kind of person who jumps over the wall in a hurry.

Assassinating them and trapping them is the first step, and there will be endless plans to make it difficult for them in the future.

"Chirp!" Yaohu rubbed against Chu Lingyue's body, chirping non-stop. Chu Lingyue touched it, and Yaohu fell asleep on her lap contentedly.

Murong Jing glared angrily, and really wanted to go over and pick up this little bastard right now and throw it away!

Throw it away very disgustingly!
Far away, it's best never to come back, it's so stupid anyway!

Yaohu didn't know that he was disgusted, and was still sleeping soundly. Chu Lingyue thought about it, and asked Brother Luo if there was any place to hide, "Is there a place to hide near here?"

Brother Luo was surprised, and was somewhat puzzled by her question, "There are many places to hide, but I don't know what you are going to use them for."

"I'm afraid this is a series of tricks. We might as well hide for ten days and a half months. It's best if nothing happens. But if the second prince wants to attack you, I'm afraid he will come prepared. Let's Can't dodge."

Murong Jing also deeply believed that in the art of war, the most commonly used method is to be prepared but not to defend. If the second prince makes a comeback, he really came prepared.Those two people from before could get away with it for a while, and they couldn't let the village remain unnoticed.

The second prince's people have already discovered the place, and it's only a matter of time before they come here.

"There are various caves in the West Mountain, and the caves are intricate and complicated. We often shuttle in them, so it's better to hide in them." Don't be afraid of [-], just in case, Brother Luo made a decision immediately, and asked people to prepare and start cleaning up tomorrow. Things are moved into the cave, and only one or two masters are left nearby to keep an eye on the movement.

Chu Lingyue was a little bit reluctant to leave this cabin.Although she didn't live here for a long time, this feeling of security made her feel at ease.

Under the moonlight, Murong Jing and Chu Lingyue were sitting in the yard eating wild fruits.The wild fruit was picked by the aunt next door from the mountains and given to Chu Lingyue. Perhaps the hijab embroidered for the aunt's daughter last time was enviable, and the aunt sent things here every now and then.

Others in the village also knew that Chu Lingyue embroidered well, this one begged to embroider a hijab, and that one begged to repair a quilt curtain.Chu Lingyue saw that those were well-intentioned things, and she was also happy to help. When she could free her hand, she embroidered with a needle and thread. When picking up things, the villagers did not come empty-handed, they took their own good Things are delivered, and sometimes even three meals a day are included.

The folk customs are simple and simple, so that Chu Lingyue almost forgot how she confronted Sun Qionghe and Lu Mingmei when she was in the Hou Mansion.

"Murong Jing, are you really not going to take concubines in the future?" Chu Lingyue suddenly asked this question.

Among the Tianqi, the only ones who do not take concubines are the Murong family, which is really a different kind.But Chu Lingyue still had no idea, it was true that she couldn't take concubines, but she didn't say that she couldn't remarry, she couldn't divorce her wife, and she couldn't reconcile.She can't control the continuation, if one day, Murong Jing divorces her, or reconciles with her, she doesn't know what will happen to her.

Not knowing what she was worried about, Murong Jing simply showed herself to Chu Lingyue, "No. Before I met you, I didn't know what kind of woman I would spend my life with, but after I met you, I knew This life belongs to you. Ling Yue, you may not know that you are so special. "

"Especially when I slapped you the first time I saw you?" Thinking of the past, Chu Lingyue couldn't help laughing.

The first time we met was in Wangjiang Tower, she was molested and fell from the second floor, and he came out to save the beauty, but he put his hands in the wrong place and was slapped by her.

"No, yours, especially you can slap me every time you see me." Murong Jing also smiled. The second time I saw Chu Lingyue was when she was chased by Donglai assassins, he obviously saved her , but in the end she was almost beaten again, but it didn't get any better, she was bitten.

The things in the past were too strange, and the melancholy just disappeared.Chu Lingyue felt better, and then helped to bring Murong Jing back into the room.

In the darkness, Murong Jing's eyes flickered, with a strong smile that couldn't be melted away.

Can he still find a woman who suits him so much at this time?
No!

Therefore, this life depends on you.

It's not difficult to just hide in the cave, but Brother Luo doesn't want to hide in so easily.After everyone had brought enough food and hid in the cave, Brother Luo took some people out and made arrangements in the village before returning.

Chu Lingyue was curious, so she followed her out for a walk, and couldn't help being amazed.

If it wasn't for the fact that she lived here the day before, it would be hard for Chu Lingyue to believe that there are people living in this dilapidated small village in front of her.

You can see the blue sky through the roof when you look up, and you can only touch the dust with your hands when you touch the table. Even the bottles and cans displayed on the wall are broken.

It was obvious that everyone had moved away for a long time.

"Brother Luo, you are so amazing!" Chu Lingyue couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Brother Luo smiled honestly and waved his hands quickly, "These are nothing, we are used to it before."

Murong Jing once warned Chu Lingyue not to inquire too much about their past, so Chu Lingyue didn't ask too much. After seeing the current arrangement, she went back to the cave with peace of mind.

If Brother Luo hadn't brought them with him, Chu Lingyue really wouldn't be able to find their location.

She has visited West Mountain quite a few times, but this is the first time she has seen such a large number of intricate caves.

The whole cave is like a labyrinth. Enter from one entrance, but there are different roads to go inside. You can only reach the destination by turning left and right. If you accidentally go wrong during the period, you will only enter a dead end.The dead end is not scary, what is really scary are some aborigines living in caves.
