Ma'am, is there someone out there?

Seeing Marquis Wen'an, Concubine Rong was overjoyed, and quickly shunned all the palace people.

Marquis Wen An took his seat, wondering why Concubine Rong was in such a hurry to find him, if it was just for the draft, it would definitely not be a fire.

"Ma'am, why are you panicking?"

"Master Hou..." Concubine Rong hesitated to speak. "Father, there is something I have to discuss with you."

Concubine Rong lowered her voice and confessed all the unspeakable things.

With a bang sound, Marquis Wen An stood up abruptly, his sleeves swung the teacup on the coffee table to the ground, gurgling and breaking into pieces.

"Is what the empress said true?"

Concubine Rong didn't speak, she just acquiesced.

"Daughter, you are so confused!" Marquis Wen An's face changed, "This is a crime of deceiving the emperor, how dare you... Once exposed, you will implicate the whole family!"

Concubine Rong Gui was still panicking, but Marquis Wen An's words gave her confidence.

"Father, we are grasshoppers tied to a rope. If this palace falls...the whole Hou's mansion will not be able to think about it."

Marquis Wen An sneered: "Daughter, are you threatening your father?"

Concubine Rong smiled: "Father, what are you talking about? This palace has never said so. I am sincerely asking my lord father what to do. After all, we are both prosperous and we are both prosperous and we are all damaged. I think of Marquis Wen An Only if the mansion survives for generations can it become the reliance of a weak woman in this palace."

Marquis Wen An suppressed his anger and asked patiently, "It's been a few months."

"Two months." Concubine Rong stroked her belly, she was very slender, and her two-month-old belly was completely invisible.

"Two months?" Marquis Wen An turned and stared at Concubine Rong with snake-like eyes, "It's only been two months, why don't you destroy it? Or just push it into the emperor's dragon species..."

Concubine Rong shook her head: "My lord father doesn't know, since I entered the palace, I have never had a happy day with the emperor. It is impossible for the emperor to recognize this child."

"Then get rid of it, it's only been two months..." Leaving aside the shocking news about the emperor...

Marquis Wen An looked at Concubine Rong hesitantly, what she wanted to do was only a two-month-old fetus, which could have been aborted long ago, why did she have to wait until he came back. "What is the plan of the empress, tell me directly, why hide it. You are the smartest one among the children. It is impossible to be confused about such a big matter."

Concubine Rong didn't answer Wen Anhou's words, but talked about the affairs in the palace.

"I have been in this deep palace for several years, from being under [-] to now in my early twenties, I have survived the most immature youth. I am afraid that my father doesn't know how cold this deep palace is. Moody never The emperor who is facing the concubine of the palace, the mysterious and unpredictable national teacher like a ghost, the queen mother who chanted scriptures and worshiped Buddha all day long, and the queen who seems to have no desires and no desires... how many normal people can there be in this palace?"

"People in the world think that this palace has been honored and favored, comparable to Concubine Yang alive, but who would know that it is just a false name."

Marquis Wen An interjected: "Your Majesty, what exactly do you want to say?"

"Father said that this is not a dragon species... but it is wrong!" Concubine Rong laughed and pressed her abdomen, "I am pregnant with a dragon species!"

Marquis Wen An was surprised.

"Whether he can become a dragon species depends on our efforts." Concubine Rong was also hesitating, whether to keep this false name of honor or favor, or let this child become a real dragon species?

If you lose, it will be a land of eternal doom.

"But, wealth, fame and fortune have always been fought for. Isn't this what the father taught the daughter?"

"You're too risky!" Marquis Wen An broke out in a cold sweat, she wanted to rebel!Who is the father of the child? How could Concubine Rong be so bold all of a sudden? "Please allow me to think carefully about this matter, the empress must be taken carelessly!"

"Father, if I don't want to move, I'll just watch this draft."

Concubine Rong turned around and looked at Marquis Wen An, "Father, don't forget, Marquis Wen An got up because of the hypocritical favor that the emperor gave me... If he doesn't take it back, I will be a puppet." It doesn’t matter if your favorite concubine is a favorite, but if there is a new puppet on the emperor’s draft this year, then the future of our Marquis of Wen’an Mansion will be uncertain, dad, don’t you think so?”

Marquis Wen An wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead, and said weakly, "You let me think about it."

Concubine Rong pressed on step by step, throwing down the last thunder.

"Master Hou, if you don't think about it, is it better to be the emperor's father-in-law or grandpa?"

Marquis Wen An looked at Concubine Rong, his daughter resembled him the most.She has both ambition and scheming, but it's a pity that she is a daughter, otherwise Liu Shaoyang would not be the son of the eldest son.

"Your Majesty, why don't you tell me who the father of the child is?" This palace is not so easy to get into, and the word "dragon species" is not something everyone can use.

Concubine Rong smiled and said a name slowly.

Marquis Wen An's eyes widened, startled.

--------

"Where else are we going?" Lu Chen lifted the curtain and looked out of the car window, only to see that the scenery outside had changed from a bustling market to a dense forest.They had left the city gate long ago and went to the western suburbs.

"I'll find out later." Shen Qing counted the bank notes before looking up at Lu Chen. "Come here a little bit."

Lu Chen was puzzled, but he still leaned over.

Shen Qing put all the bank notes into the small box and handed them to Lu Chen.In addition to the money dug out from Liu Shiren, there is also Yuyaozhai's share.When Yuyao Zhai opened in the capital, the price was several times more expensive than in Qingzhou.These are all his private property, and now it is all used to raise soldiers, and it doesn't feel bad.

"Is there any reward for me who worked so hard to make money?" Shen Qing moved his face closer, the meaning couldn't be clearer.

Lu Chen chirped on his face, then stammered: "It's okay."

Shen Qing hugged his waist, said with a smile: "It's not enough..."

The carriage stopped.

"My lord, we're here!" the coachman stopped and shouted.

"Go down first."

After collecting the bank notes, they got out of the carriage, and there was a dense forest in front of them.

"Look this way." Shen Qing turned Lu Chen around, and Lu Chen saw that it was still a dense forest, but deep in the dense forest was a steep mountain wall.He raised his head and looked up, but for a moment he couldn't see the top of his head.

"What do you want me to see?"

Shen Qing asked the coachman to go back first, but he himself pulled Lu Chen inside.

Lu Chen was puzzled, the coachman left, how will the two of them come back later?There will be a banquet in the palace tonight, can you make it in time?However, Lu Chen did not hesitate, and followed Shen Qing without any complaints.If it's a big deal, he will be absent. Lu Chen is not afraid of anything.

"No one comes to this forest." Shen Qing smiled, "You didn't look carefully at the entrance to the forest just now, there is a Zhuangzi outside, and the entire forest, including that Zhuangzi and the entire wasteland belong to us."

"Ours?" Shen Qing had never been to the capital before, when did he buy it.

"When did the branch of Yuyao Zhai come here, that's when it was bought here." Shen Qing had saved so many people and stayed in the mansion, there were always one or two with business acumen.The shopkeeper of Yu Yao Zhai is one of them.Shen Qing gave him the capital, the shopkeeper was good at it, the money was rolled over, the profit was made, and he even bought countless fertile land.

Including this wasteland.

"The price of wasteland is one tenth of that of good land, and I bought it to grow watermelons. As for this forest, have you seen it? It's also full of fruit trees." Speaking of this, Shen Qing glanced at Lu Chen, and his eyes flickered a bit Cunningly, "From the outside, it looks like an ordinary orchard, an ordinary farm, as if a rich employee had nothing to do outside and bought this piece of land, but..."

"Look."

Lu Chen looked up, and saw that the two high cliffs blocked the light, but the middle was bright.It was a line of sky.

Across the sky, one could vaguely see what was going on inside. Lu Chen seemed to hear the sound of horseshoes, drums, and the sound of knives and guns hitting the waist.

Lu Chen hurriedly went to verify Shen Qing, his face was full of surprise.

"Yes……"

"That's right." Shen Qing nodded, "Go in and have a look."

"How to get in?" Lu Chen compared the width of the crack, probably only Xiaobao could get through it.

Shen Qing grabbed Lu Chen and led him to the mountain wall where he came.The mountain wall is steep and rugged, overgrown with weeds, a few overgrown pine trees are twisted, and the vines that grow uncontrollably cover the entire rock on the mountain wall.

Shen Qing groped around the mountain wall for a while before seeing a hole in the spreading vines.It's so dangerous, I almost couldn't find this hole.In fact, he has never been here, only heard the description of the shopkeeper in the letter.

It turns out that this cave is connected at both ends, and you can reach the other side of the mountain wall from this end.After leaving the dark cave, it suddenly became clear and bright.On the other side of the cave, there was an empty valley.

The neat tents are lined up in rows, and the soldiers are training in an orderly manner.The guards guarding the entrance of the cave held up the cross at first, but when they saw that it was Lu Chen and Shen Qing, they immediately put down their weapons.

Zhao Zhuang's loud voice sounded.

"General! I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Only then did Lu Chen know that most of the troops he brought back were concentrated in this valley.Lu Chen took a few glances at Zhao Zhuang, this is still his subordinate.

"Then what kind of general...Madam, he never deliberately concealed your intentions." Zhao Zhuang immediately explained, what if the general annoys Madam?The lieutenant under his command obeyed Madam's order without saying a word. For a suspicious person, he would have no good face.

"No, I did conceal it on purpose." Shen Qing seemed not to understand Zhao Zhuang's good intentions, and Zhao Zhuang on the side kept winking at him when he heard this.Ouch, madam, shut up!

"I have a surprise for you." Shen Qing quickly whispered in Lu Chen's ear. "Our soldiers cannot be brought to the capital in an open and honest manner. The [-] troops on the surface are now in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, and the remaining large troops were originally planned to stay in the nearest town to the capital. Can't put out a near fire."

It was only then that he remembered that there was still such a place, so when Zhao Zhuang was asked to go first, he ordered this matter.He took the token and went to join the treasurer of Yu Yao Zhai in the capital, and quietly transferred all the soldiers here.

"What are you worried about?" Lu Chen said leisurely.

Who knows?A companion is like a tiger, and Lu Chen probably knows better than him what the shape of the capital is like.

Shen Qing squeezed his palms, the two of them were in the same mind, how could the other party not be clear about what he was worried about.Zhao Zhuang, who saw the small movements of the two, knew that he was worrying for nothing just now.The couple are very nice, so there is no suspicion or suspicion.

It's all his worrying.

The two only stayed in the camp where they were stationed for half an hour before going back.There is still a palace banquet in the evening, if it is delayed any longer, it may be too late.

----

Walking on the cobbled path of the palace, Lu Chen staggered, but luckily Shen Qing immediately supported him.

"Walk carefully! What are you looking at? You can't even walk well."

"I didn't look at anything." Lu Chen's cheeks were flushed, and he was embarrassed to admit that he was looking at Shen Qing's face, and almost fell down when he was so engrossed.Fortunately, he was out and wearing a mask, so Shen Qing could not see his face, otherwise Shen Qing would laugh at him again later.Moreover, he is a general with high martial arts skills. If he can fall while walking, he will laugh out loud if he tells it.

Since today is going to a palace banquet, it is natural to dress more grandly than usual.That girl Bai Zhu dug out a bunch of extremely luxurious clothes that Shen Qing herself didn't even know she had from the closet.In the end, Shen Qingquan pushed him away.

It's a pity for Bai Zhu.

However, the last upper body is still a slightly more gorgeous dress than usual.Well, this is what Lu Chen insisted on him wearing.What to say, after all, it is a first-class imperial order, so it can't be too simple.

But this is... too much.

The last thing he put on was a brocade robe embroidered with rich and noble peonies in azure blue background, the buttons were decorated with pearls, and the skirt and sleeves were intricately embroidered with cloud patterns in silver silk. Under the light, there was a faint streamer.

The clothes are pretty, but they are too gorgeous and not suitable for a big man!Shen Qing walked back and forth a few times, couldn't help but want to take off his clothes a few times, but Lu Chen gave him a cold stare, and put them back on.

Really disagree with the baby's taste, Shen Qing secretly thought in his heart, Xiao Bao is almost exactly the same as Xuan Shen in this aspect, it seems that he has to correct it since he was a little baby.

"Isn't it pretty?" Lu Chen said boldly, confident in his own eyesight, "Look at this flower, how festive it is." He just likes such festive colors.

Shen Qing's face was not flushed and his heart skipped a beat, and he praised: "You are right." You are really right.

Lu Chen walked around Shen Qing, and felt that something was missing.

"Should I wear something else? I see those wives and wives are all wearing gold and silver, their bodies are tinkling with bells and hammers, and our general's mansion can't be left behind. The wives of the general's mansion can't be too shabby, Shen Qing, are you right?"

Lu Chen sized it up, and felt that Shen Qing was too simple, except for the jade pendant he gave him, he had nothing, and he didn't have the splendor and wealth that Mrs. Hou Men should have.This lets outsiders know if they feel that the general's mansion has treated his wife badly.

"You're right, very right." Shen Qing wanted to cry but didn't dare to refute.It was rare for Lu Chen to be interested in dressing up, and he couldn't dampen Lu Chen's enthusiasm at this time.It's a little bit hard, just bear it yourself.Look, Xuan Shen is so happy, Shen Qing really can't bear to refute half a sentence.

Just play with him.

"Ah! I remembered. I remember that there were some dowry gifts that were supposed to be given to you at the time, but they were not delivered." Lu Chen was in a state of excitement, and quickly rummaged through the box to find a box of gold and silver jewelry that was pressed here at that time.

As soon as I opened it, I was blinded.Shen Qing hesitated, really want to continue playing with him?He looked down, Lu Chen was picking out the jewelry very seriously, with an excited face and a smile hidden on his lips.Shen Qing immediately felt relieved.

What is there to care about, if you are laughed at by others, just laugh for a while.

See how happy he is now, as if he got something fun.Seeing Lu Chen's happy appearance, Shen Qing also became happy.

"Wow, this bead is so big, this Ruyi is not bad... and this one..." Lu Chen grabbed several handfuls with both hands, and showed them to Shen Qing cheerfully, as if offering a treasure. "Look, which one do you want?"

"Hmm..." Shen Qing carefully stared at the few strings of beads in Lu Chen's hands, trying his best to find one that was not so expensive, but unfortunately, Lu Chen's eyesight had always been bad, and the ones he took out were all blind.

"Just this one." Shen Qing chose for a long time, then pointed to a little golden pig.The little golden pig was made according to Shen Qing's zodiac, and Lu Chen was also very satisfied.The golden pig is fat and looks festive.Well, it is estimated that it is also good to make a roast suckling pig.

Lu Chen hung a little golden pig on him, only to find that the hairpin on his head was missing.

"It's just the white jade hairpin. When I saw you that day, you were wearing that white jade hairpin." Lu Chen touched the white jade hairpin, and there seemed to be a snowy scene in front of his eyes.

Snowy, he is wearing a big fox fur yak, white jade hairpin tied with blue silk, a pair of peach blossom eyes are shining brightly, like the stars twinkling in the sky, shining brightly, in the crowd, he is more conspicuous than anyone else.

Lu Chen saw him at first sight.

"What are you thinking about?" Shen Qing helped Lu Chen's waist, "Let's hurry up, I can already hear the music."

Lu Chen came back to his senses, glanced at Shen Qing who was dressed in fine clothes, and nodded with satisfaction.

Well, Lu Chen thinks his taste is really good.

Look, how flashy, how festive.
