A Timely Wife

Li Ruosong squatted down, helped Guanshi Liu up with both hands, and said, "Guanshi Liu doesn't have to be like this. If Fulang watched you being knocked down by a carriage and didn't come to rescue him, if you want to follow Fulang's temperament, I'm afraid you'll be in trouble in the future." I will regret it forever."

Guanshi Liu wiped the corners of his eyes, stood up while pressing Li Ruosong's arm, and said, "It's all the fault of the little one, if it wasn't, alas."

"Guard Liu, my husband and I have already promised that no matter who planned this incident, even the officials, I will kill the murderer with my hands. However, people's words cannot be trusted. It didn't take long for this incident to happen. , someone found you and said so many things. I always feel a little uneasy in my heart. First, we can’t confirm whether this person is loyal to the prince. Second, even if he is loyal to the prince, we have to verify. For a moment, Guanshi Liu, you have been in the capital for decades, so you must have some connections, I would like to ask Guanshi Liu to help you check again, if these people really did it, I will definitely not let them go." Li Ruosong said It is very slow, but the words are extremely heavy.

Liu Guanshi responded: "Please rest assured, Eldest Young Master."

After Guanshi Liu went out, Li Ruosong walked back to the small room where Chengdong was resting, and fell into deep thought. There were many things in Guanshi Liu's words that made Li Ruosong feel very strange. First of all, Chengdong's original mother, As far as Li Ruosong knows, Chengdong's mother died very early. He met Chengdong's mother when he was very young. She was a very gentle young woman. Looking back now, Mrs. Cheng was not in good health at the time. He always coughed, his face was pale, and he sweated easily. At that time, he seemed to be only four or five years old. The reason why he had such a deep impression on Mrs. Cheng was probably because Mrs. Cheng married from the north. The appearance is not the same as that of the southerners. Southern women are petite and gentle, while Mrs. Cheng is tall and has exquisite features, which makes people feel unforgettable at a glance.

Mrs. Cheng, Li Ruosong thought about it carefully. Mrs. Cheng's surname seems to be He, Cheng He's, yes, that's right, it is He. If this is the case, Lin Qinghui's mother is also surnamed He. The other party was plotting against him, but he had no idea what the other party was plotting against him, and Li Ruo Song couldn't fight back if he didn't understand the opponent's intentions. What's the use, useless is a scholar, what you said is absolutely right, even if you already know who the enemy is, you have nothing to do with him.

At this moment, Li Ruosong felt a deep sense of frustration. Whenever he felt that he had achieved something, he would always be woken up by reality. He was actually just a useless person, a self-righteous person , a person with empty ideals and no ability, Li Ruosong began to reflect on himself, he thought he was calm enough, but in fact he was not mature enough, he would float up with a little achievement, his tail wished to fly to the sky, Li Ruosong felt that he was Cultivating the mind is still not enough. According to what Cheng Dong said before, it means that he is too immature in the world.

When Chengdong woke up, he opened his eyes and saw that Li Ruosong hadn't turned on the lamp, and was sitting by the window by the faint moonlight, with his head lowered, wondering what he was thinking.

"Ruosong." Cheng Dong called softly.

Hearing Chengdong's voice, Li Ruosong woke up from his thoughts just now, "Are you awake? Is there any discomfort?"

"I'm fine, what were you thinking just now?" Cheng Dong asked.

Li Ruosong helped Chengdong up from the bed, let him lean on him, adjusted the quilt for him, and then said: "Guanshi Liu came here in the afternoon, someone sent him some news, and he told me about it." We don't know who the other party is, but the other party said that the young master of the He family, the eldest lady of the Lin family, and Wan Youliang, the Minister of Rites, planned this incident."

Chengdong frowned and said, "How did the three of them meet and go together? Also, why did they target us?"

"It is said that the young master of the He family and the young lady of the Lin family made a marriage agreement. Wan Youliang met the young master of the He family when he went to Qingjiang Mansion to attend the funeral for the young master of the Wan family, and his marriage to the young lady of the Lin family is still this Wan Youliang. Youliang led the line, and the condition is that as long as the young master of the He family is willing to marry the eldest lady of the Lin family, the Wan family will continue to recognize the He family as an in-law." Li Ruosong simply repeated what he said to Liu Guanshi in the afternoon.

"But what does this have to do with us? The young master of the He family just doesn't like you, and that's because he provoked you first. Shouldn't those who beat someone be prepared to be beaten? As for Lin Qinghui, I remember correctly The original body still wanted to call her cousin. After all, the two mothers are sisters. Although I don't know if it's true or not, but Lin Qinghui knew Cheng Dong before, and she also lived in Qingjiang Mansion for a while. It will be too alienated. As for Wan Youliang, I don’t know him, and I don’t know what he is planning, but it must not be a good thing. You just said that they are planning something. The original body is just a spoiled Eldest young master, oh, Shuang'er, I heard you said before that this person is domineering and domineering, he has done a lot of evil things, firstly he has no good reputation, and secondly he has no high status, what exactly are they planning?" Cheng Dong asked with some doubts .

Li Ruosong thought for a while and said, "Do you have any memories of Chengdong before, even a little bit is fine."

Chengdong shook his head, and replied: "If I can have the memory of the original body, I won't miss the trick from the beginning. I won't do anything else. I still pretend to know a little bit. I don't have any memory at all. Knowing what Yuanshen has experienced, to be honest, even if you hadn't mentioned it when I returned home, I wouldn't have known anyone in the room."

Li Ruosong pondered for a while, and said: "The other party said something, asking you to think about whether your mother gave you anything when she passed away, or said anything, and said that you should be careful and serious. Really think about it, from this point of view, the original body's mother must have some kind of secret, it is still a secret that many people covet."

Chengdong felt very puzzled. Although he had only been here for more than a year, it was enough for him to understand the attitude towards women here. There are all kinds of weird rules and requirements, but they are not as open as the previous celestial dynasty. At least women can have some rights. Chengdong's mother is the wife of Chengfu. It won't be too easy, otherwise I won't die so early.

"Chengdong, I mean the former Chengdong, what's his maiden name?" Chengdong asked.

Li Ruosong was speechless, he thought it was funny to hear this, Chengdong actually asked him what his mother's name was, which made him feel strange.

"The surname is He, Cheng He's family, married from the north. In addition, Lin Qinghui's mother's surname is also He, Lin He's family." Li Ruosong said.

"What's your surname?" Cheng Dong frowned subconsciously.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Li Ruosong asked quickly.

"I don't know if I'm right, but I always feel that this surname is too coincidental. Chengdong's mother's surname is He, and she married to Qingjiang Mansion from the north. Is she related to the He family in Qingjiang Mansion?" Does it have anything to do with He Dutong in the north? On the Qingjiang Mansion side, the He family has money, on the capital side, the Wan family has power in the court, and the He family in the north has military power. I remember Zhang Steward said before, The He family in the north already has the intention of rebelling against their own self-esteem, maybe these few families have reached a consensus, for example, to rebel." Cheng Dong paused for a moment, and continued: "That's not right, the Wan family should be the last one. I don't want anyone to rebel. After all, Concubine Wan Gui gave birth to a crown prince. If there is a rebellion, whether it is courtiers or ordinary people, the voice of opposition will be relatively loud. Moreover, the prince was established as the crown prince as soon as he was born, so there is no need to rebel. , as long as Emperor Chu Cheng dies, the crown prince will naturally be able to ascend the throne as the emperor. Thinking about it this way, it seems that what I just said is wrong."

Li Ruosong suddenly interrupted Chengdong, and said: "Fu Lang, you are right. I am afraid that these few families have united. Some provide silver, some raise soldiers, and some support these people in the court. When Liu Guanshi said these things, I felt strange. The dignified Minister of Rituals, who is also the uncle of the young master of the Wan family, ran all the way from the capital to Qingjiang Mansion to attend the funeral of his stupid nephew. This matter is very inappropriate. It is reasonable, but if he is not going to the funeral, but to go to the He family to discuss cooperation, this matter is reasonable.

Also, Fu Lang, have you ever thought about what would happen if the prince was not the son of the emperor, or what would happen if the prime minister of the Wan family wanted to be the emperor himself? Sitting on a dragon chair is always not as comfortable as sitting on a dragon chair. The He family, the He family, it seems that the He family and the Cheng family in Qingjiang Mansion need to be checked, including your mother and Lin Qinghui's mother, and even those in the north. The He family has to investigate. Only by knowing what is the relationship between them, can this layer of fog be cleared away. "

Hearing Li Ruosong's words, Chengdong frowned slightly, and he knew that his husband would definitely react. He family, Wan family, and Lin family, these three families, he would not let them go. A child will not be able to close his eyes under the nine fountains.

"Ruosong, I'm afraid we can't do this with the two of us alone. We must rely on the power of Steward Zhang and Zhou Huyuan. Steward Zhang has been in the palace for many years, so he must have his own channels. After all, Zhou Huyuan was born as a general. Zhou Nuyuan should be clear about the He family's affairs, and Prince Zhong, the enemy of the enemy is our friend, we can talk to Prince Zhong." After Cheng Dong finished speaking, he held Li Ruosong's arm.

Li Ruosong nodded and said, "I'll do it right away."
