Chapter 175 Unbelievable
Chen Muqing looked at the dark and thin Chang Hui speechlessly.
"Auntie... I advised Mr. Xiao... I could take him back to Kyoto secretly. When the Yuanmeng people wanted to take the emperor back to Bahe, they exchanged a group of captured people... Two chances, Mr. Xiao gave up. And he also said, "The Lord is worried about the insults of the minister... I have no choice!"
Chen Muqing smiled bitterly: "Thank you for your hard work in Master Chang. Now the siege of Kyoto has been lifted, so you can take Liu Niang back too!"
Chang Hui hesitated and said, "Or why I'll go to Bahe again. It turned out that I didn't know where Mr. Xiao was and searched everywhere. Now that I know the specific location, I'm going back and forth faster..."
Chen Muqing was moved when he heard this.
"Or why don't you bring me a letter to Mr. Xiao?"
Chang Hui nodded and smiled, "Okay? You wrote the letter today and I will leave tomorrow."
Chen Muqing smiled and asked Yingfen to send Chang Hui out, and wrote a letter to Xiao Sa by polishing ink.
There were no sweet words in the letter. I just asked him why he wanted to go to Bahe?
The next day, Chen Muqing did not wait for Chang Hui, but Liu Niang was waiting for him.
After the serious illness, Liu Niang left traces of old age on her face.
She smiled bitterly at Chen Muqing: "I don't allow him to have more contact with your family, just because I'm afraid that something like this will happen today... Unexpectedly, he sold his life to your Shen family..." As he said that, tears fell down.
Chen Muqing was very guilty, but he was thinking about Xiao Sa, so he had to smile cruelly and said, "Don't worry, Master Chang will be fine!"
Liu Niang stared at Chen Muqing with her eyes begging: "Auntie, I only hope that you will be too dangerous for our orphans and widows. Please don't let my uncle go."
Chen Muqing had no way to make a promise to her and bowed her head guiltily.
Liu Niang saw it, sighed, and got up and left.
After a while, Chang Hui arrived.
He came to get the letter: "I haven't slept in bed for months, so I got up late."
Chang Hui explained to Chen Muqing a little embarrassedly that he was coming.
Chen Muqing hesitated: "Is it dangerous to go to Bahe?"
Chang Hui smiled and said, "Where is not dangerous? Didn't Kyoto almost be destroyed? "
Chen Muqing smiled bitterly, handed the letter to Chang Hui, and personally sent him out.
*******
The threat from the Yuanmeng people was lifted, and Kyoto was healed and forgot the pain, and soon returned to its original prosperity and hustle and bustle. Only people like Chen Zhen were as worried as before.
"Today I definitely don't want the emperor to come back!" Chen Zhen snatched the black-skinned girl on the left corner, "But just let the emperor be in Bahe... how can he explain to future generations in the future - the cabinet is too incompetent!"
In order to distinguish between the two emperors in the front and back, everyone began to call the new emperor by "Today's Shang" and the old emperor by his original title.
Mr. Min took Bai Zi back and said disdainfully: "Old Master Wang has been busy with his son-in-law Chengjue's affairs these days, so how can he have time to care about this?"
Chen Zhen's hand stretched in the air stopped for a moment.
"Oh, so, I'm going to establish a concubine?"
Mr. Min flew forward and looked up at Chen Zhen and said, "Now it's all messed up, so why are you still divided into legitimate and illegitimate? You don't know? I didn't succeed two days ago and sent an envoy to exchange for 500,000 taels of silver for the emperor... Now the emperor left the people there and ignored them. But no one from the cabinet and the Censorate said... I think this matter is to establish a legitimate and not a legitimate!"
Chen Zhen made no sound, but the chess piece fell on the chessboard but made a "crackling" sound.
At this time, Chen Muqing looked at Yingfan in a daze.
Yingfen looked at Chen Muqing and nodded, strengthened his tone and said, "You heard it right. That second sister Tu, come to visit you! I want to see you!"
Chen Muqing smiled coldly and said, "I won't see you!"
Yingfen left in response.
Chen Muqing called her back again: "...what is she dressing up?"
Yingfen pondered: "Wearing a silver-white striped shirt, a white thread-picked skirt, and a pink armor... on her head, a hairpin with red gold beads, and a pair of green jade bracelets on her hands... Well, she also put on light makeup and two little maids, she looked very refreshing and neat."
Chen Muqing thought for a while and said, "Just tell her that the house is in chaos and I still have to clean up. Let her have something to do, tell you!"
Yingfen left in response.
Chen Muqing fell down and wrote a letter to Shi Jingshu.
Since she learned that Kyoto was surrounded, she wrote more than ten letters to Nanjing, asking the Shi family to help inquire about the situation in Kyoto. When she heard that the troops failed, she immediately wrote a letter to Chen Muqing. Chen Muqing was the same. After failing to withdraw, she immediately wrote a letter to Shi Jingshu to report safety. The two of them came to the same time to deliver letters, but they couldn't explain clearly like ducks and chickens. So Chen Muqing waited for Shi Jingshu to write a letter this time before replying to her.
She couldn't help but smile at the letter.
It seems that it is completely right to leave Shi Jingshu in Fuzhou.
After Chen Muqing's suggestions, Shi Jingshu immediately understood how to get along with Mrs. Yu from Fuzhou and Mrs. Li from Quanzhou... In just three or four months, Shi Jingshu not only found a suitable place to grow tea, but also bought the land through Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Li.
Just waiting for Lin Ruichun to go to Fujian.
Chen Mumu wrote two letters. One letter was to Shi Jingshu, thanking her for her help, and also tactfully praised her. The other letter was to Lin Ruichun. First, he told him that the affairs in Fujian were almost done and asked him to set off for Fujian. Second, he told him that Luomei, the child and Lin Jincai followed Aunt Chen to Zhoushan, and asked him to go to see his parents, wife and son on the way to Fujian, and enjoy a few days of family happiness.
After writing the letter, she carefully sealed the envelope.
There was a noise of women quarrels outside.
Chen Muqing frowned and listened carefully.
"...Why are you like this? You don't understand the rules at all..." That was Yingfen's voice.
Another voice replied: "...You are a little maid, can you make the decision? Don't talk too much here, it's bad for me, be careful to hit the board..." It sounded very familiar.
Chen Muqing thought about it again and suddenly realized.
That was Tu Xiaoque's voice.
She couldn't help but feel angry.
Speaking of which, Tu Xiaoque was just a maid who was taken into custody. Why did she scold Yingfen? At least Yingfen was walking straight...
Chen Muqing felt a little cold first.
The footsteps became clearer and clearer.
Before she could react, the curtain was lifted with a "swish" sound, and Tu Xiaoque's face that was Yichen and Yi-smiling appeared in front of her.
Chen Muqing frowned slightly, and Tu Xiaoque knelt in front of her in three steps in two steps.
She was stunned, and Tu Xiaoque hugged Chen Muqing's knees: "Auntie, if you want to hate, you hate me. If you want to blame, you blame me. It's not our young master's business..."
She looked at Chen Muqing pitifully, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she shocked Chen Muqing.
What are these sayings?
Chen Muqing listened suspiciously.
I couldn't help but look at Tu Xiaoque carefully.
Unlike the gorgeous and vulgarity of the past, the second sister now has clean and natural makeup. She is wearing a jackal made from Guangzhou, a silver striped shirt made from Songjiang, and a thread-picking skirt made from Hangzhou silk... She is full of fine materials. There are also jewelry on her head. Although there are only four or five types, it can be inlaid with coral, crow stone, cat's eye stone, honey wax and so on... The biggest change is her expression. She no longer has the hasty and shrunk she used to be, her eyes are bright, with confidence and pride...
A reborn Tu Xiaoque!
Chen Muqing remembered what Pang Debao said to the eldest wife of the Xiao family: "...Our eldest wife started to be the head of the family as a teenager. After a while, she delayed the marriage. But she was destined to be destined. The old man of the Xiao family took a fancy to the eldest wife's capable and visited Jinzhou repeatedly. The eldest wife saw that the Xiao family asked for truth, so she agreed...but our eldest wife was not an ordinary lady, and she still went around to trade after marriage... Fortunately, the old man and the old man were very supportive..."
Can change a person's temperament... Xiao Sa's biological mother is no longer just amazing...
When Tu Xiaoque saw Chen Muqing looking at her, he hurriedly said, "...That time at Wanbaozhai, I didn't know the gold and jade, and bumped into my aunt. I beg my aunt to have a lot of it, so I don't know the same as me."
Chen Muqing was kind to her: "My second sister is worried too much. I have long forgotten about Wanbaozhai."
Tu Xiaoque naturally doesn't believe it.
But she looked grateful: "Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
Chen Muqing signaled Yingfen beside him to help Tu Xiaoque up.
"I feel embarrassed to do this in my second sister. I'd better stand up!"
Seeing that Chen Muqing never asked about his purpose, Tu Xiaoque stood up with Yingfen, but he couldn't help but feel anxious in his heart and had to flatter Chen Muqing: "My aunt hasn't seen her for several years, and she has become more and more beautiful. If I were walking on the road, I wouldn't dare to admit it!"
Chen Muqing was annoyed that she scolded Yingfen regardless of importance and circled around her: "Second sister praised her. Speaking of which, after not seeing each other for a few years, the second sister became more and more beautiful."
"Look at what my aunt said, how can I compare to you..." Tu Xiaoque said politely, "If my aunt is the flower on that branch, I will be the grass under the tree. If my aunt is the moon in that sky, I will be the star on the moon. How can I compare to you... Even our young master, I often lose my aunt's female beauty. She is generous and decent in writing... How can I compare to you!"
His tone was a little sour.
Chen Muqing was even more displeased.
She didn't like this kind of life... Unexpectedly, she attracted Tu Xiaoque...
I don’t know what she is going to compete with me... Xiao Sa is far away, but she still doesn’t know whether she is dead or alive?
Chen Mu smiled faintly and said, "Second sister is so polite!"
Tu Xiaoque sighed deeply when he heard this, and a few helplessness appeared on his face: "I have been serving the eldest wife in the past few years... Oh, the eldest wife is the young master's biological mother... I followed her around and went around in a hurry. The girl also threw down her and read less books... However, I have made a lot of effort in making plans and calculating the accounts. Even the eldest wife has many praises."
Are you here to demonstrate to yourself?
Chen Muqing remained silent and said with a smile: "Second sister is smart, so she can understand at first. Congratulations to her second sister!"
Tu Xiaoque had a little proud look on his face: "Thanks to the eldest wife. If the eldest wife hadn't taught her step by step, I wouldn't have been today!"
Chen Muqing nodded with a smile, not talking nonsense.
(Today is New Year's Eve. I wish all my friends a great success, good luck, happiness and health!
