A Timely Wife

Li Ruosong still failed to attend the Luming Banquet, to be precise, he did not eat the banquet given by the emperor, because after he killed the Quartet, Prime Minister Wan was furious and found someone to send him out of the palace, and told him to leave immediately, otherwise he would be killed. Deal with it according to the purpose of resistance.

In this way, Li Ruosong was respectfully sent to the gate of the palace by the imperial guards, and then respectfully sent to the carriage, and then respectfully sent to Li Ruosong's home. When Li Ruosong got off the carriage, he was in charge of "escorting" The guard said to Li Ruosong: "Li Jing, Lord Zhong asked his subordinates to tell you that you can go to the post with peace of mind. Anyone who should be taken can be brought there. Later, soldiers with the jade pendant of Lord Zhong will come. Keep it if you can use it, and forget it if you can’t use it.”

Li Ruosong cupped his hands, and said to the guards: "You must keep the humble job in mind, and you will reply to the prince like this when you go back."

After the guards clasped their fists to salute, they drove back to the palace in the carriage to answer Lord Zhong. Hearing what the guards relayed, Lord Zhong couldn't help laughing softly, and said to the old doctor: "My nephew is very lucky, there is someone who can handle it clearly. Elder brother will lead the way for him to escort him, and Da Chu will see them in the future."

The old doctor smiled and said: "My lord's luck is not bad, at least he showed up when we needed such a person most. This is also the blessing brought by my lord. That’s how Da Chu died.”

Prince Zhong wanted to laugh, but coughed uncontrollably, finally calmed down, and then Prince Zhong said slowly: "Da Chu, I just hope that this catastrophe can be passed, nothing can be broken, nothing can be built, sometimes chaos is not necessarily a bad thing In the south, under the banner of pleading for the people and worrying about the country, these gangs of nobles and gentry fished all the money that should have been handed over to the treasury into their own treasury. They thought that the king did not know, but the king knew it very well. The Nanlin Party is a gang of thieves from the country. If it weren't for the Minister of the Ministry of Officials these years, they would have been able to walk steadily, and they hadn't caught anything. Just wait and see, this big Chu might have changed the name of the country .”

After Prince Zhong stopped talking, the old doctor immediately stuffed Prince Zhong with a pill, brought him another glass of water to drink, and said, "My lord, don't worry, these matters will be resolved sooner or later." I don't think this Li Jing is a fool. I have read the few policy articles he wrote. He is capable of doing things and has ideas. If he can do what he wrote, Da Chu will definitely not It's just what it looks like now."

"Yeah, this Li Ruosong and his husband Lang Chengdong don't know what kind of person they met. The idea is very interesting. What is the sentence he wrote? The amount of money determines the safety of the court. Only the court can Only money can improve people's livelihood, build guards, protect the safety of the people, and let the people live and work in peace and contentment. Where does the money come from? It is definitely not the powerful gentry but these ordinary people who seem to have little power.

Only Li Ruosong dared to bring up this kind of idea, but unexpectedly, my nephew liked to hear it very much. Speaking of which, he was sick again?Is that drug cream really unstoppable? "Lord Zhong finished speaking and took another sip of water.

"Fushou ointment is something that makes people addicted. Once you touch it, there is absolutely no way to break it. The old man has already tried to alleviate the follow-up reaction caused by the drug, but now it seems that it is a big deal that this thing has been sucking. At least it can still hold your life, but if it breaks, the old man probably will collapse." The old doctor said solemnly.

"Since this is the case now, let him go. How is the investigation at Concubine Wan Gui's place? Have you found that person?" Prince Zhong asked again.

"No, that person seems to be no longer alive. Now the old priest is said to be that person's brother. At that time, the reason why Concubine Wan Gui introduced him to the emperor is also due to these reasons." The old doctor said here, suddenly After a while, I continued: "Concubine Wan Gui, I always feel that I don't know what she is thinking. If she doesn't play cards according to common sense, I can't figure it out."

Prince Zhong shook his head and said: "Don't worry about it anymore, it's useless to continue to investigate. What we wanted to do before was to prove to the emperor that the person Wan Guifei loves is not him but the young Taoist priest. It’s just that he looks similar to that person. Now it seems that the emperor can’t be pulled back. Even if he wakes up, his body can’t be separated from the drug, but we don’t have this thing in our hands. We can only let them procrastinate like this first, as for other things, we have to start preparing, if it is too late, it will be too late."

The old doctor sighed and said: "No one, my lord, we really don't have anyone in our hands. In the past, the old man always thought that we have a lot of people in Dachu, so we don't need to worry too much about anything. There are so many, there are only one or two people who can use it.”

Prince Zhong smiled lightly, and said: "Isn't there still me here, Da Chu, no matter who it is, I can't ignore it, but Da Chu gave me the position of the prince and gave me so many respects." The fiefdom and salary have given me so many privileges, I have to devote myself to Da Chu, otherwise how can I be worthy of these things I have obtained."

Hearing this, the old doctor was silent for a while, and said, "You are not the only one in the royal family of Great Chu."

"The old man is right, but Lord Zhong has only me." After finishing speaking, Prince Zhong put down the book in his hand and said with a serious expression: "It is my destiny to be loyal to the court and to Dachu. At the cost of my life."

When Prince Zhong was about to leave Da Chu with a glimmer of life, Li Ruosong was taking Guanshi Liu to pack his luggage. Originally, he thought that they would come back after they returned, and even if they didn’t come, they would have to stay for a while, so they kept a lot of things. Unprepared, but unthinkable, the imperial decree told them to leave immediately, they did not have the courage and ability to resist the decree, so they could only quickly pack their luggage.

"Master, do you want to sell the house in the capital?" Liu Cheng asked.

"Sell it, we won't be able to come back for a long time, including all the shops in Beijing, and sell them as soon as possible. Manager Liu doesn't need to stay here, just leave it to a friend to help him, and the money he gets will be shared with him. One-tenth is also fine." Li Ruosong said.

"Yes, if this matter is small, we will deal with it immediately. Then the letters mentioned earlier and the things that need to be escorted back will go with us, or should we ask the escort to escort them?" Liu Cheng continued to ask.

"Come with us. When we go back, we will be escorted by the imperial guards. They are much better than bodyguards. The key is the letter. Manager Liu will find a time to bring the letter to me. I will put it next to my body. Take it with you." Li Ruosong ordered.

Guanshi Liu took the order to leave, while Cheng Dong leaned on the bed and listened to Li Ruosong arranging various affairs for Guanshi Liu. He laughed suddenly, and Li Ruosong, who had been paying attention to Cheng Dong's movements, heard it, and immediately turned around and asked, "What was Fu Lang laughing at?"

"It's not a joke, um, don't raise your eyebrows, I know you don't believe me, but if I tell you, you will definitely be angry." Cheng Dong said.

"No, no matter what Fulang says, I won't be angry. Just tell me what Fulang says." Li Ruosong replied with a smile.

Chengdong didn't know whether he was fascinated by Li Ruosong's appearance just now or was deceived by Li Ruosong's current expression, but he actually said honestly: "I just suddenly remembered how you were in a hurry a year ago, I remember At that time, it was the first time you took over the purchasing business, and you either forgot to buy this, or forgot to arrange that, and the whole person was in a mess. How long has it been since you have grown to this point, and you are somewhat emotional."

"This is because Fulang taught well. If it weren't for Fulang, I would never have achieved what I am today. According to what Fulang said before, the military medal is half of you and half of me. This sentence Are you right?" Li Ruosong replied.

"Ahem, what my husband said is true, what my husband said is true." After Cheng Dong finished speaking, he shrank under the quilt. Don't think he didn't see it. Li Ruosong's eyes should not be too dangerous. He hasn't recovered yet, really I can't bear it, even with my hands.

Li Ruosong thought that Cheng Dong's health was not good, so of course he would not do anything out of line, "Fu Lang sleeps more, I don't think he will be able to have a good rest in the next 20 days or so."

Chengdong thought for a while and said, "Can't we take the waterway? Didn't you say that the waterway is very fast? Since the imperial court ordered you to go back to Qingjiang Mansion for three days, then you should also be able to take the waterway."

Li Ruosong replied: "I have discussed this matter with Master Feng before. I heard that the waterway is very unsafe now. Passing ships are often robbed by pirates. If someone resists wearing clothes, basically they will all die. As for Guang's fate, the former Young Master Wan was said to have been killed by pirates."

"They dare to snatch the official ship? Are there no officers and soldiers on board? They don't resist?" Cheng Dong asked.

"Officers and soldiers? They can still toss about on land, but how can they fight with others when they can't vomit on the ship? Seeing these pirates coming, maybe they can run faster than those officials." Li Ruosong said.

Chengdong sat up from the bed and said to Li Ruosong: "Ninghai Mansion doesn't care about anything? If all these ordinary people die, who will pay him taxes?"

Li Ruosong smiled, touched Chengdong's head, and said, "He doesn't need these ordinary people, maybe these pirates paid him several times more protection money than all the ordinary people put together. Chengdong was shocked when he heard this." Looking at Li Ruosong, he said, "You mean he colluded with pirates? "

Li Ruosong nodded and said, "That's right, Prince Zhong also doubted this. One of the most important things I did this time was to find out what the relationship between the prefect of Ninghai Prefecture and these pirates is."
