foster husband

Chapter 126
One month after Dai Wang left, the weather also entered the most sweltering summer of the year.

The sourness and heat are pains that no living person can bear. As for the one lying in the palace, he won't say anything if he can't bear it.

It was the new emperor who couldn't help jumping his feet, and hurried on his horse, sending down eight imperial edicts to Xiashan Mountain in a row, the most frequent time being three times a day.

No matter how sleepless the craftsmen were, they rushed to work day and night, and finally set the funeral date on September [-]th.

The new emperor is very thoughtful, on the day of the late emperor's funeral, coffins were carried out from the eight gates of Luoyang City to confuse the people.Only one of the roads really leads to Xiashan.

There are about 3000 people in the real funeral procession. The four-wheeled funeral car is in the front. The body is long and covered with a canopy.

The new emperor helped the spirit himself, and the royal clan came out in full force, followed by all civil and military officials, and the cars and sedan chairs lined up.There are also a large number of monks and nuns in the middle, wearing cassocks and holding law enforcement instruments, playing and chanting sutras continuously.The entire funeral procession was more than ten miles long.

After traveling for 20 days, the team stopped at the foot of Xiashan Mountain. The next burial, according to the auspicious time and auspicious day calculated in advance, even civil and military officials were not allowed to participate.

The only thing to guard against is that some people are motivated by money, and those captains who touch gold are nothing more than that.

Regardless of whether it works or not, it can be seen that the new emperor knows what to do, and he must guard against everything, and the only thing to guard against is the human heart.

The burial of Lin Junyou was the official end of an era.

Anyone with a little bit of political savvy might think that there will be a turmoil in Luoyang in the near future, but no one thought that something would happen on the day of the return journey from the funeral.

From Luoyang to Xiashan, the official road is straight, and there is no good place to ambush.

The group of thieves entered the camp at night, beheading everyone they saw, and they were not afraid of personal life or death, so they looked like well-trained dead soldiers.

In order to protect the emperor, King Zhongyi was stabbed in the body, and commanded the troops to counterattack quickly, and finally wiped out the culprits.It's not that there are no survivors, but those who survived did not live beyond the time of a cup of tea, and all of them died of poison.This is before coming here, I have taken the poison first.

The emperor was unscathed, but King Zhongyi had a high fever because the wound was stained with mud.In addition, King Zhao was slightly injured, and the Great Sage Ducheng was frightened.

As for Dai Wang, he still stayed in Xiashan to supervise the closure of the tomb and follow-up matters.

If he was there, he wouldn't be able to hurt my father-in-law even if he was hacked.

As soon as the news reached Princess Wuling's mansion, the Chu family was stunned, thinking that if her husband was gone, she would not be able to live.

If you want to ask her if she has any emergency measures, of course she has them.

When Pei Tianshu was at home, she would look for Pei Tianshu immediately in case of an emergency.Pei Tianshu was not at home, so naturally he was looking for her daughter.

But Mrs. Chu looked around in Diaoshan Xiaozhu, but she couldn't find her daughter anywhere, not even one of the four maids who were close to her.

The Chu family grabbed a little girl and asked, "Where is the eldest princess?"

"I went to the medicine garden."

When Mrs. Chu hurried to the medicine garden, Pei Jinyu, who was dressed in light men's clothes, had already explained the purpose of coming to Pei Xiaoqi.

The news of her father's injury, she knew about an hour and a half earlier than Chu's.Therefore, she had already packed her things, and she was afraid that those quack doctors would not know how to heal people, so she wanted to ask her second uncle to prepare some medicinal materials, and she took them with her to welcome her father in person.

Even the itinerary has been calculated, changing horses at the post station, and riding fast, it will take at least two days and one night to meet her father.

When Pei Xiaoqi heard the news that Pei Tianshu was injured, she clamored to go with Pei Jinyu.

Pei Jinyu thought for a moment and said, "I'll bring senior brother with me, second uncle, you should guard the door at home."

He heard the Chu family who was about to enter the door say: "Jin Yu, where are you going?"

Originally, Pei Jinyu wanted to hide it from the Chu family and said nothing, but seeing the wet tears on her mother's face, she said, "Mother, I'll go pick up my father."

Chu's tears flowed out again: "The journey is so far away, how can it be done!"

Pei Jinyu suddenly remembered what Lin Huan said that day, "Mother, don't worry, I've grown up. Pei Zheng and senior brother will go with me."

Knowing that she would not be able to stop her daughter, Chu asked her daughter again and again, not forgetting to tell Jiarong who followed her: "Don't let the eldest princess make any mistakes."

Jiarong solemnly nodded in agreement.

Pei Jinyu never said sweet words, but Tan Zhongxiu comforted Chu: "Princess, don't worry, I will protect the eldest princess well with my life."

A group of four people set off lightly.Originally, Pei Jinyu didn't even want to bring Jiarong with her, but then she thought, if her father needed someone with a dexterous heart to serve her, she couldn't do it anyway.Fortunately, Jiarong also learned a few kung fu from Master Wu. She is not a delicate and weak woman, so she will not feel burdensome with her.

They changed horses twice on the way, and they didn't rest at night. Finally, in the evening of the third day, they met the slow-moving team.

Pei Zheng showed the name tag of the Princess's Mansion, someone verified her identity, and led Pei Jinyu and his party to Pei Tianshu's car.

When Dong Qing saw Pei Jinyu, he grinned and wanted to cry.Jiarong slapped him and scolded him in a low voice: "Why are you crying? It's unlucky."

Pei Jinyu got into the carriage with a serious expression, and saw her father lying there wrapped in a blanket, with his eyes tightly closed.In less than a month, her father seemed to be several years old, his complexion was pale, and he wrinkled the word "Chuan" on his brows in his sleep.

Without Pei Jinyu's instructions, Tan Zhongxiu also got into the carriage, felt his pulse, and carefully lifted the blanket to check the wound.

Where is the wound and how deep is the wound? These are also things that Pei Jinyu wants to know urgently.

Who knows, Tan Zhongxiu only moved a little, and Pei Tianshu immediately opened his eyes.

Seeing his daughter, he didn't seem surprised at all, smiled at her and said, "Father is fine."

Pei Jinyu also smiled at her father: "Oh, as long as there is nothing to do. Now that I am here, you can rest assured that you should lie down and sleep, everything is up to me."

After thinking for a while, he added another sentence: "Father, I have grown up." With Pei Jinyu's state of mind, saying such words was really too shameful, and he added: "Well, I have to invite the emperor Ann go."

Seeing his daughter's rare embarrassment, Pei Tianshu wanted to laugh, but the wound hurt when she moved, she just thought in her heart that when his daughter didn't grow up, she would scare him half to death from time to time.Just now she said that she has grown up... Hey, daughter, just tell me what you want to do, so that Dad can be mentally prepared, so that he won't be scared and fainted by you on the spot.

Pei Tianshu couldn't bear to smile, it was really hard work, he waved his hand, and signaled Pei Jinyu, "Go and come back quickly."

He doesn't need to explain the rest, anyway, his daughter has grown up, she was so smart when she was young, now... just pray that she doesn't make trouble for others.

When Pei Jinyu went to see the emperor, Pei Tianshu thought a lot.For example, the person who ambushed them this time was arranged by King Zhao, or sent by Zhu Wuya.Another example is whether the purpose of this ambush is him or the emperor, or is he planning to kill two birds with one stone.

It is said that he was brave and loyal to block the knife for the emperor, this is only a superficial thing.

In fact, as soon as he was ambushed that day, he deliberately went to find the emperor.Who doesn't know that the guards there are the strictest.

When he didn't go, there weren't too many thieves in the emperor's place.

In a trance, I still remember that at least half of the thieves followed him to the emperor.

The situation was critical at that time, and he had been suffering from high fever for the past two days, but now his head is finally sober, and he began to recall from the day of the funeral, analyzing this matter without missing a single detail.

Pei Tianshu really thought a lot, but he really didn't think about what his daughter would do next.

When the eldest princess came, she also brought a doctor with her. Even the emperor was sure that King Zhongyi was safe and sound. He might be alive and well as soon as he returned to Luoyang. He had to prepare for King Zhongyi's rescue in time. A matter of meritorious service.

King Zhongyi was originally a first-rank official, and he would not be able to go anywhere if he was promoted, so it would be more honorable and magnanimous to reward his two sons.

He is not his father, he still shows suspicion on his face, the so-called flattery is actually the best way to kill without blood.

The emperor was contemplating what would happen after returning to Luoyang, when someone came to report: "It's not good, Your Majesty, King Zhongyi... King Zhongyi..."

"What happened to King Zhongyi?"

"Fever coma, the doctor brought by the eldest princess said, this time is very dangerous."

The emperor had an indescribably complicated feeling in his heart, thinking that if King Zhongyi left like this, he would still not be able to suppress those generals.But he also thought that once King Zhongyi left, he would lose a serious heart disease.Really happy and worried.

He also thought about Dai Wang and Pei Jinyu by the way.

I thought to myself, if the Dai Wang hadn't married Pei Jinyu before him, it wouldn't matter much even if King Zhongyi left now. He took Pei Jinyu into the palace with an imperial decree and made him a noble concubine. Allegiance.

Alas, after much deliberation, the most beneficial thing King Zhongyi did was that Pei Baiwei and Pei Xuejin were still young enough to be a threat.

After turning his thoughts a few times, the emperor sighed and ordered the car to drive slowly, he was going to see King Zhongyi.

No matter how good-looking things are, it doesn't take much effort.

The emperor had just arrived in front of King Zhongyi's car, when he heard Pei Jinyu's cry coming from the car.

She sobbed and said, "Father, don't scare your daughter!"
