reborn wife

A few days later, Jin Yihui and Wen Zhiru arrived in the capital smoothly under the escort of Lord Feng.

The three bid farewell outside the city gate, and Jin Yihui and Wen Zhiru went to the palace first to return to their orders.

After that near-death attack, the only evidence they have now is the official document signed by Qian Linmo from the Ministry of Industry that they found in the abandoned arsenal that night.

So when Emperor Jin Junyu asked about the results of their investigation, Jin Yihui chose to conceal it temporarily after deliberating for a long time. He just said that the matter involved a lot and he needed a few days to sort out the evidence before writing a detailed memorial. present.

The emperor still trusted Jin Yihun, a good brother who grew up together, so he asked them to go home and have a good rest.

It will be New Year's Eve in a few days, and all the facts of the case can be reported after the next year.

****************************************************************************

The news of King Xian's son's return to Beijing was sent back to the mansion early in the morning. Wen Zhiru hadn't reached the gate of the Wen mansion yet, and saw Fu Sheng and Fu Cui squatting outside the door waiting for him from a distance.

It is inevitable that the capital will be freezing cold at this time. The two little girls have been waiting outside the house since they received the news. After these two or three hours, their faces were flushed from the cold, and their feet almost felt like they were not their own. .

But when they saw Wen Zhiru's carriage from a distance, they immediately ran up to meet Wen Zhiru's carriage regardless. When they saw Wen Zhiru's face, the two lines of tears couldn't stop "buzzing".

Wen Zhiru has nothing to do with women crying, even if it is bumpy all the way and gets a headache from crying, she has to be patient and persuade her.

"Okay, okay, I've only been out for a few months, why are you two making it as if you are parting from each other?"

Fusheng sobbed: "Young...young master, slave...I just miss you so much~"

"Yes! Yes!" Fu Cui also echoed, "I have been with you since I entered the mansion since I was a child, and I have never been away from you for so long. When I think of you eating and sleeping outside without anyone to take care of you, I am very worried! "

"I'm not a child. I can't survive without being taken care of? Besides, haven't I come back well?"

"But..." Fu Cui stared at Wen Zhiru up, down, left, and right, "But this servant thinks you've lost weight again! The Shizi's people must not have taken good care of you."

Speaking of which, the carriage had arrived at the gate of Wen's mansion at this moment, and Wen Zhi got out of the carriage and was walking to his Luoying Pavilion surrounded by two maids, "Don't talk nonsense, you will lose weight again, my young master, I am the eldest." It's right to be tall."

Fu Cui raised her head to look at Wen Zhiru and at Fu Sheng next to her, and compared them carefully, "Hey, it seems so, young master, you are a little taller again."

"Okay, don't talk about these useless things." Wen Zhiru stopped the two girls from continuing their useless chatter, and changed the subject, "I've been away for the past few months, how is the house? Did something important happen?"

"Is it a big deal?" Fu Cui looked at the sky in confusion.

Wen Zhiru got the emperor's errand to go to Beijing to handle the case with the son of the virtuous king. This is naturally not good news for the Qian family who has always hated him to the point of itch. Even if the emperor did not give Wen Zhiru any substantive official position, But as long as this errand is done well, are you afraid that you won't have a foothold in the officialdom in the future?

Moreover, he is now the eldest son of the Wen family, and Mr. Shoufu also values ​​him very much. A high-ranking official and a generous salary are just around the corner.

But even if she was very angry, she was no longer in the capital, and Qian, a woman with little insight and ability, would have nothing to do with him. These days, she didn't come to Luoyingxie to do anything, and all her thoughts were devoted to raising her own children superior.

As a result, Fu Cui had nothing to do in the past two months, living a life like a pig except to eat and sleep.

"Master, our mansion is going to have a concubine soon." It was still Fu Sheng who was a little clever, and finally did not forget to observe the movements in the mansion.

"Oh? What do you say?"

"The emperor issued an edict a month ago, saying that after the year, several women with excellent family background, appearance, and talents will be selected as concubines in the Dajin Dynasty. However, the emperor said that the treasury is not sufficient, so he does not want to be extravagant. It is just handed over to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Empress Dowager to draw up a list of some eligible beautiful women, and then the Emperor will set a date to enter the palace to face the saint. Our house has received the Queen Mother's order!"

"Really? What does father mean, he intends to let the girl in the mansion go?"

"From what the master said, it seems that he doesn't care. He said that our Wen family doesn't need to have a relationship with the royal family."

"En." Wen Zhiru nodded, this is indeed his father's style, "Then what does Mrs. Qian say?"

"Of course Ma'am wants Miss Fourth to enter the palace. After all, she is her direct daughter. But according to the House of Internal Affairs, the Empress Dowager seems to prefer Miss Third, saying that Miss Fourth is too young."

"Heh." Wen Zhiru sneered indifferently.

Any age is an excuse. Qian's eldest daughter, Wen Zhiyan, is only three or four months younger than Aunt Gui's daughter, Wen Yu. After the new year, she will be fourteen. It is a good age to talk about marriage. .

It seems that the queen mother should have listened to Princess Shu Ning's recommendation, and planned to choose this concubine Wen as a pawn.

In fact, if you analyze it carefully, even if there was no Wen Yu's deliberate gesture of favor to the eldest princess at the birthday banquet of Princess Chao'an, she would still be more suitable for this position than Wen Zhiyan.

After all, Zhiyan is the daughter of the Wen family, and with the support of the rich family, even if the emperor doesn't like her, the scene will not be too ugly. If she is pregnant with the dragon species in the future, with Zhiyan's birth, there may not be no competition for the crown prince. Opportunity.

What the queen mother wants is only a pawn that can consolidate her position in the harem and her Yan family's position in the imperial court. Zhiyan's background is too high to be controlled.

On the contrary, Wen Xie is different, Wen Xie is just the daughter of a dowry aunt who has no influence, even if she enters the palace, judging by Wen Yanfeng's power overshadowing the sky with one hand today, it doesn't matter at all whether there is a concubine in the harem as a backer, Whether Wen Xi can survive in this harem still depends on the faces of the queen mother and concubine Shu. Even if she is born a prince, she may end up with an adoptive fate in the end.

It's just that how could a woman like Qian willingly give up this opportunity to be the emperor's mother-in-law? It seems that she will make a move sooner or later.

Wen Zhiru was thinking about Fu Sheng's words, and at the same time, he had already walked to the gate of his own courtyard. Before he stepped forward, a servant hurried over, "Eldest young master, the master is very happy to hear that you have returned home." Glad to let you have time to go to the study."

Wen Zhiru: "Father came back so early today?"

"That's right, young master, a few days ago you sent a letter back from the family, saying that you will return to the mansion today, and the master returned from the palace early in the morning to wait for you!"

"Then you go back to Dad first and say that I will go into the house and change clothes."

"Yes, young master."

******************************************************************************

There were too many things on the way back, so the group of them rushed a little bit, and the clothes that hadn't been changed in four or five days were covered with a layer of dust on the original bright colors.

According to the rules, they should take a rest after entering Beijing, change clothes and take a bath before going to see the emperor, but Jin Yihui couldn't wait to tell the little emperor what happened along the way and the conspiracy hidden by Prince Rui, so he went straight into the palace.

Now it's not that Wen Yanfeng cares about these things, it's just that Wen Zhiru, who is wearing dirty clothes, can't help himself.

He simply wiped his body with warm water and put on clean new clothes. Although he had only left Beijing for a few months, the cuffs were obviously tight and the hem was not long enough.

Fu Cui sighed and said: "The eldest young master has grown really fast, and he said he would keep those new clothes for the New Year. Looking at it this way, he has to find someone to come out in two. Looking back, the house is full of people coming and going during the New Year. , it doesn’t look good in this outfit.”

Fu Sheng replied: "It's less than five days until New Year's Eve, and many businesses in the capital are also closed, I'm afraid we won't be able to make it in time."

"That can't be done. Our young master is now the eldest son of the mansion. Don't be laughed at by wearing this short clothes. I will go to Liu Nanny to find a way. No matter what, I have to do two things." A new one will do."

Wen Zhiru saw the two little girls talking to each other, and had a headache, "Okay, I don't care what clothes I wear, but it is inevitable that relatives and friends will come to the house during the Chinese New Year, and the clothes look shabby. If it doesn't work, let Mother Liu see if you can lengthen it a little bit. Hey, that's right, that Yu's needlework in the mansion is pretty good, how about her?"

"Uh...she..." Although she expected to say it sooner or later, when Wen Zhiru asked her this question, Fu Cui panicked. Seeing Wen Zhiru's eyes flushed, she trembled.

"What's the matter? What's wrong with her? Is she sick, or is she out of business?"

"Master, Mrs. Yu, she...she..."

In the end it was Fu Sheng who had a stronger personality and was more courageous, and replied for Fu Cui: "Master Yu, you are dead."

"Dead? What's going on?" Wen Zhiru couldn't help being startled when he heard the news. He was in a hurry to straighten his clothes and go to Wen Yanfeng's study, but now he simply sat down again, "Quick, let me be careful." Say it."

Fu Cui couldn't hear about this dead man any longer, and before Fu Sheng could continue, she took Wen Zhiru's clothes and ran to Nanny Liu, leaving Fu Sheng alone to tell Wen Zhiru slowly.

"Actually... I don't know exactly what's going on here. After you left the capital, young master, the Palace of Xianwang sent someone to say that Mrs. Yu is a servant girl in the palace because she had an affair with a servant in the palace. She was pregnant and escaped. They did not know where they invited Mrs. Yu's parents, and they admitted to their faces that they had sold their daughter to work in Prince Xian's mansion a few years ago. Seeing the situation, Mrs. Let the people from Prince Xian's Mansion take Yu Shi and Xian'er back. It's just that within a few days, I heard that Yu Shi suddenly died of a sudden illness. Prince Xian said that she had served in the mansion for many years, although it was a wrong idea to do this for a while. The disgraceful thing is that she felt sorry for her orphan and widowed mother, so she paid some money to find a place for her to be buried, and said that she would take Xian'er in the mansion and raise her."

The author has something to say: It's finally updated~~ I've been wondering where to write the ending.

We should wait for Lord Rui to rebel. . . .It feels like a long time
