dream red mansion

Daiyu stood in the pavilion and watched quietly, the servants and maids outside were busy tidying up the house and preparing their luggage.Time flies so fast, I'm leaving here soon...

After everything was settled, Daiyu sent someone to invite Shui Rong and Xiangyun to the mansion.He briefly and clearly said that he was about to leave the capital.

"This time it's farewell. I'll replace wine with tea. I wish you happiness forever!"

Shui Rong and Xiangyun looked at each other, Xiangyun wanted to persuade Daiyu to stay.Shui Rong held Xiangyun's hand and shook his head.Lin Youyu's position in Daiyu's heart is too important, he is both a lover and a relative.Since he was gone, Daiyu would naturally not stay in the capital.

Shui Rong raised his cup and said, "My lord wishes the girl a smooth journey!"

Xiangyun had no choice but to stand up with the cup in hand, and the three of them clinked glasses and drank it down in one gulp.

"Yes." Shui Rong clapped his hands. "Miss Lin, this king suddenly remembered something, and it is necessary to tell the girl." Shui Rong's face was a little dignified.

Daiyu put down her cup and said, "I would like to hear more about it."

Shui Rong looked at Daiyu and Xiangyun, and said, "Recently a group of bandits who don't know where they came from are running around the capital, it may not be safe for the girl to go out of the city at this time."

"What! Bandit? Why didn't you say it earlier?" Xiang Yun said angrily.

Shui Rong seemed quite helpless, and explained: "This king just remembered this too. And it's not too late to say it now."

Xiangyun snorted, turned to Daiyu and persuaded: "Sister Lin, why don't you leave in a few days? We don't feel relieved if you leave like this. In this way, we can get together for a few more days. Isn't it the best of both worlds?" ?”

"This..." Daiyu hesitated. "Isn't it a coincidence?"

Shui Rong also persuaded: "Yeah, Miss Lin, you're not bad for a few days. When the officers and soldiers catch those bandits, it's not too late for you to leave."

Daiyu thought to herself, if she insisted on leaving, it would be a trivial matter if the robbers lost her money, and then Lin Fu, Lin Wu, and Zijuan would be injured by the robbers, how could she be happy?As soon as she looked up and met Shang Xiangyun's expectant eyes, Daiyu nodded and promised to leave in two days.

Xiangyun was naturally very happy, and suddenly another idea came to his mind.She ran up to Daiyu and said, "Sister Lin, once you leave, we don't know when we will see each other again? Why don't you go to the palace for two days?"

"No!" Daiyu refused without thinking.

"Sister Lin, why?" Daiyu's resolute attitude made Shi Xiangyun very puzzled.

Shui Rong's eyes darkened for a moment, he knew that Daiyu was because of him.Daiyu resisted herself so much, Shui Rong was inevitably disappointed.But Xiangyun was at the side, and Shui Rong couldn't be too obvious, so he forced a smile and said: "This king thinks it is feasible. I am quite busy with political affairs these days, and I don't have much time to accompany Xiangyun. Taking this opportunity, Get together, you two sisters!"

"Come on, come on, Sister Lin." Xiangyun grabbed Daiyu's hand and begged.

Daiyu frowned, although Shui Rong said that she didn't have much time to stay in the mansion, but they were under the same roof, they would meet each other if they looked up and looked down.Forget it, why bother to make yourself uncomfortable.After thinking about it, Daiyu insisted on rejecting Xiangyun.

Seeing Daiyu's tough attitude, Shi Xiangyun retreated and asked her to have a meal at the mansion before leaving.The Xiangyun dialect has already reached this point, and it is not easy for Daiyu to refuse.

Shui Rong and Xiang Yun sat for a while, and they said goodbye and went back home.

For the safety of the people near the capital, Shui Rong discussed with Lord Shoufu and decided to send Shui Yue to lead the troops to exterminate the bandits.Maybe the robbers had heard the wind in advance, and after searching for several days, they didn't find any trace.In order to prevent problems before they happen, Shui Rong ordered Shui Yue to lead troops to station at the city gate temporarily.

Guangdu Temple is heavily guarded as usual.What they didn't know was that a group of men in black were approaching them.From the point of view of actions, the men in black were well-trained and acted in unison. All the secret posts around Guangdu Temple were silenced by the men in black.

Shui Rong was discussing political affairs with Mr. Shoufu in the cabinet, and Eunuch Li rushed in hastily.

"The big thing is not good, the emperor is in danger!"

"What!" Lord Shoufu and Shui Rong changed their faces drastically, and they all stood up. "Eunuch Li, please speak clearly. What happened to the emperor?"

"A guard broke out from Guangdu Temple. According to him, there are thieves going to Guangdu Temple! My lord, Lord Shoufu, hurry up and send troops to rescue the emperor."

"Master Shoufu!" Shui Rong clasped his fists, "This king is willing to personally lead the troops to rescue the emperor!"

"Okay!" Lord Shoufu ordered without hesitation. "My lord, you take a team of imperial guards first. The old minister will arrive later."

Shui Rong immediately went out to order soldiers.

The man in black suddenly appeared in the temple and caught Zhao Liang and the others by surprise. In addition, they were well-trained, and the imperial guards led by Zhao Liang quickly retreated.Zhao Liang led his troops to resist and ordered the deputy general to take the emperor and concubine away first.

The deputy general reported the situation, and the emperor and the imperial concubine quickly changed into ordinary people's clothes.The deputy general led the emperor and Concubine Jia to leave through the back door.

Unexpectedly, the man in black left a small number of people guarding outside the temple, and the emperor and his party were followed by the man in black as soon as they left Guangdu Temple.The lieutenant general and several guards were quickly killed by the men in black.The man in black pressed forward step by step, and the emperor supported Concubine Jia to retreat all the way.

When Shui Rong led the troops to Guangdu Temple, only Zhao Liang and a few guards were left in the imperial guards.When the men in black saw reinforcements coming, they immediately changed their strategy and retreated while fighting.

Don't chase after poor bandits, let alone saving the emperor, so Shui Rong didn't send troops to chase after him.

"Zhao Liang, where's the emperor?" Shui Rong looked around but didn't see Liu Qin.

"Go back to the prince, the last general asked the deputy general to take the emperor and the imperial concubine to leave first through the back door."

Therefore, Shui Rong and Zhao Liang immediately chased after the mountain.

In the back mountain, the emperor and Concubine Jia have been forced to the cliff by the man in black.Now there is no way out.

"Emperor Dog, now I want to avenge King Zhongshun!" The man in black raised his knife and approached.

The emperor suddenly knelt down, "Don't kill me, don't want me, I—" Before he could finish his sentence, the man in black kicked him off the cliff.

"Your Majesty—" Shui Rong and Zhao Liang rushed over to see this scene.

Hearing the news, the man in black took advantage of the opportunity to hold Concubine Jia hostage, "Back off everyone!"

"Let go of the imperial concubine!" Shui Rong shouted loudly.

"Heh!" The man in black sneered, his eyes full of ferocity, "If we let her go, will we still have a way out?"

Shui Rong winked at Zhao Liang, letting him attract the man in black's attention.Zhao Liang backed away slowly, leading people to wait for the opportunity.

"Who are you guys? Why did you murder the emperor?" Shui Rong asked.

"I'm not afraid to tell you now that we are the old department of King Zhongshun. Hmph~ Killing the dog emperor is naturally to avenge the prince!" The man in black pointed his knife at Shui Rong, "Stop talking nonsense, don't try to delay, Get back quickly!" After speaking, he put the knife on Yuan Chun's neck again.

"Wait—" Shui Rong stopped.Shui Rong signaled all the guards to retreat.

The man in black held Yuan Chun forward slowly, "Don't try to play tricks!"

"We don't play tricks, but you have to ensure the safety of the empress." Shui Rong's eyes turned slightly, and Zhao Liang had already led people around behind the man in black.

"Is it worth doing this for a traitor?" Shui Rong said deliberately to anger the man in black.

Sure enough, the man in black was furious when he heard Shui Rong insulting King Zhongshun, and pointed his knife at Shui Rong, "Shut up!"

Right now, the archers in the dark shot and killed the man in black who was holding Yuan Chun hostage.The imperial guards swarmed up and successfully captured the remaining men in black.

"Thank you, my lord!" Yuan Chun saluted.

"Your Majesty, you are being polite!" Shui Rong replied.

Yuan Chun wanted to say something, but his eyes darkened, and he couldn't help but fell forward.

"Your Majesty!" Shui Rong was shocked, and hurried forward to support her.

Shui Rong sent Yuan Chun to the palace to appease him, and rushed to the cabinet before he had time to rest.At this time, all the important ministers in the court had gathered in the cabinet.

Liu Qin's heirs are thin, so far there are only two princesses and the prince in Yuanchun's belly.Since there is no crown prince, the news of Liu Qin's murder has not been announced.When this news is made public, the government and the public will be shaken, and the national situation will inevitably be affected.

"How can this be done?" asked a minister.

Lord Shoufu pondered, "If the imperial concubine conceives a prince, then she will be the future prince."

"My lord, how is your majesty?" Lord Shoufu asked when he saw Shui Rong walk in.

"The imperial doctor said that the condition of the fetus is unstable, but fortunately it is not serious, and has already prescribed anti-fetal medicine." Shui Rong replied.

All the ministers breathed a sigh of relief.Mr. Shoufu informed Shui Rong of the situation discussed by everyone just now.

"It's feasible, it's feasible, but—" Shui Rong hesitated.

"If the prince has any questions, it's okay to say."

"There is still a period of time before the imperial concubine gives birth. Who will handle the court affairs during this period? And even if the imperial concubine gives birth to the prince, the prince is still young, and it will take a period of time for him to grow up. This is not a year or two matter, so what?"

"My lord, what you said is very true!" The ministers nodded in agreement.

Mr. Shoufu twirled his beard and said thoughtfully: "It seems that we have to elect a person to take up the post of supervisor."

All the ministers bowed their heads and whispered, quietly discussing who would be the most suitable for this position.

At this time, Shui Rong didn't say a word, and sat quietly by the side.

"My lord, is there anyone in your mind?" Lord Shoufu asked after seeing Shui Rong sitting quietly at the side.

Shui Rong pondered for a moment, and said: "This king feels that, in terms of seniority, the position of supervising the country must belong to an adult."

Lord Shoufu hastily waved his hand, and declined: "No! No! I'm old and I really can't do what I want."

"In the opinion of the old minister, the prince is perfect for this position."

Shui Rong stared at Mr. Shoufu, saw that he was also looking at him, and sneered in his heart, knowing that he was just testing himself, so he replied: "Hey! Mr. Shoufu's words are wrong! How can this king be capable, let alone this king in the future It is going back to the fief."

Shui Rong refused again and again, and the lord Shoufu stopped talking, and only said that he would be elected by the ministers tomorrow.

Shui Rong also nodded in agreement.
