Chapter 1223 (1/2)
Tiekui was assassinated, which made many ministers in the court panic. They dare not forget the last murder, so after tiekui was injured, all the ministers went out with enough guards and did not dare to talk about things in restaurants. Of course, there are also some people who are not afraid of assassination. Chen Ran, the left servant of the Ministry of officials, is not afraid of assassination. He also went out with only four long followers as usual.
Yu Xixian persuades Chen Ran, but Chen does not listen. In desperation, Yu Xixian can only turn to the old lord Taining for help.
Old Taining Hou got the news and asked for him and said, ”well, now the Chen family is relying on you. You can't have a mistake. I'll go out later, so I'd better take more bodyguards with me! ” Since the death of his eldest son, Chen Ran has been the burden of the Chen family.
Chen Ran said, ”Dad, no need. It's enough for them to follow Tang Qiang.” The four attendants, except that Ali is his confidant who can't do martial arts, all the other three have martial arts in them.
Old Taining said: ”it's better to be careful. Last time, those assassins killed many important officials. ”
Chen Ran was not afraid of this: ”Dad, the king of Ming is leading the army to attack the northern captivity. The princess of Ming is a wise man. At this time, those people won't act rashly.”
Old Taining Hou thought it was also reasonable. In addition, Chen Ran was determined not to take more guards, so he gave up: ”Ran'er, when the Ming King solved the problem of northern captivity, the next goal must be the capital city. However, it's time for us to make plans. ”
Chen Ran had thought about this question for a long time: ”if the capital can't guarantee the emperor's retreat to Liaodong, then we will go with the emperor to Liaodong.”
”Do you think it's safe to retreat to Liaodong?” asked the old Taining marquis Definitely not. As long as Yunqing recovers his strength, he will surely lead his troops to attack Liaodong.
Chen Ran lowered his eyes and said, ”Dad, even if it's not safe to retreat to Liaodong, we can only follow, there is no other way.” Not to mention that they had already joined Yan Wushuang, but that he and Han Yuxi had made a marriage, so the Ming king could not tolerate him.
Old Taining Hou understood Chen Ran's words and asked, ”do you regret it?” At the beginning of this marriage, Chen Ran insisted on getting married.
Chen Ran shook his head and said, ”no regrets.” I don't regret the engagement with Han Yuxi or the withdrawal from his marriage. Because at the time of engagement, he was sincere, and Han Yuxi insisted on withdrawing.
”No regrets.” Chen Ran didn't regret it, but he did. I knew that Han Yuxi had such ability. I shouldn't have followed Chen Ran's intention to get married. In other words, when she knew that Princess Qinxin was interested in Chen Ran, she resisted the pressure and didn't give up. Unfortunately, there is no if in the world.
At this time, Yu Xixian is sitting on the soft couch in the room, dazed. Her marriage to Chen Ran is the order of her parents. Before that, she knew about Chen Ran's engagement and withdrawal. In fact, although there are not many people who leave after they have made an appointment with a large family in the capital, they are not without them. And she thought that with Han Yuxi's marriage to the northwest, it would become a thing of the past. But she never thought that Han Yuxi's reputation was getting louder and louder. Now she has become the most powerful woman in the world. It's hard for them to pay attention to her.
Looking at Yu Xixian, she asked softly, ”madam, what's wrong with you? Are you still worried about the master? ”
Yu Xixian nodded: ”now the world is in chaos everywhere, and I don't know what will happen in the future?” A woman from a large family will pay close attention to the past dynasty when she takes care of the back house. After all, the changes of the previous dynasty are related to their cherishing.
Rich brocade is the most trusted person in Xixian. Now she helps rich brocade manage the backyard and knows a lot about things outside. The rich brocade comforts a way: ”madam, the matter outside we also worry not to come.” The price of rice and grain outside is one price a day. It's better for them to have their own village, but ordinary people have a very difficult life. Many people can't get along, they can only sell children and girls.
Yu Xixian said with a wry smile, ”I'm afraid that the capital can't be defended.”
The rich brocade blustered a jump, but very quickly said: ”madam, there are more than four hundred thousand soldiers and horses in the capital, should be able to defend?”
Yu Xixian shook his head and said, ”the Ming king is a god of war. With the strong military forces in the northwest, more than 400000 soldiers and horses may not be able to defend the capital.”
The rich brocade is a little flustered, ask: ”madam, how to do then?”? The northwest army is extremely vicious, murdering people, setting fire, raping, raping and plundering. Everywhere it goes, it will become ruins. ”
”The capital cannot be guaranteed. The emperor will surely retreat to Liaodong at that time.” Yu Xixian didn't explain anything about it. If it wasn't for Han Yuxi and Yunqing, her brother Chunhao would not have died, and Yu's family would not have fallen so fast, so Yu Xixian hated Yuxi. But she knew that she could not avenge her younger brother, so the hatred was only hidden in her heart.
”Rich brocade some worry ground says:” madam, Liaodong there one year is in ice and snow for most of the time They went there, afraid that they could not adapt to the climate there.
Yu Xixian said with a wry smile, ”the environment is still the second worst. The most important thing is that there is no peace in Liaodong. Tongcheng is fighting all year round.” I really retreated to Liaodong. Before that time, there were evil wolves, Donghu people and fierce tigers, Yunqing. It was not peaceful.
Just as she was talking, the servant girl waiting outside raised her voice and called the master. The conversation between the master and the servant ended immediately.
Chen Ran enters the room and asks, ”dad knows that general iron was assassinated. Is that your handwriting?” It can be seen from the words that Chen Ran is very dissatisfied with this matter.
Because of his poor health, old Taining Hou paid little attention to the outside world. This time, if it wasn't for Xixian's purpose, old Taining Hou didn't know that tiekui had been assassinated.
Yu did not deny it, and said with red eyes: ”I asked someone to tell the old man about it. Master, I don't want you to add guards. I'm worried. Master, you need to have three advantages and two disadvantages. What can you do if you let my parents and our mother and son? Even for the sake of this family, you should take care of yourself. ” They were defeated and lagged behind at home, and their married aunts had no support from their parents. It's ok if there's no mother's family with a son. Those sisters who don't have a son live a very hard life. Fortunately for her, Chen Ran's attitude towards her has never changed.
”This time, I don't want to have another one.” They have been married for more than ten years. Seeing Xi Xian's tears, Chen Ran feels soft after all: ”don't listen to the wind is the rain. Those rumors outside are not true. Don't worry about me, I know. ”
