102: Arrange family affairs
** Niu, I'm really sorry that the plain clothes are updated late. When I got home, I had a lot of things to deal with, and I was unconvinced. Today, I updated three chapters to apologize. Dear everyone~~**
Hou Fu has completely changed his previous leisurely appearance.
Mr. Zheng, who was sitting on the top, had a solemn face. She leaned on the Eight Immortals Chair, stroked her forehead with her hand, and frowned slightly, but was just silent.
Sitting under her head were the third and fourth aunts, and Chi Caiqing, whose stomach had been slightly bulged. Several people's faces were extremely solemn without exception. For a moment, the whole room was silent, but there was an invisible pressure in the silence, which made people breathless.
Lv Ning stood beside Mr. Zheng. Luo Feng was ordered to go to the flood-affected place in Tang County to open a warehouse to save the people, but there was indeed no man at home. These women also looked a little listless as if they had no backbone.
"Like what the ancestor said just now," Lu Ning slowly opened her mouth. She was still dressed as a scholar when she came back before, but her hands were wrapped in layers of cloth. She hasn't said anything or shown it to others, but her hands have long worn out their skin and skin by pulling the bow. Thinking that the face is just a small weak woman who has never taken a bow and arrow, how can she withstand this sudden shooting power? Not to mention the face, it is the body of green condensation. I'm afraid that after this killing, your fingertips will also bleed. However, at this moment, what else does she have to care about her fingers? My Beijinghou Mansion has gone through three dynasties and has a hundred years of family property, but now it is in danger because of the snobbish ineties in the dynasty. This is an unprecedented disaster in my Houfu. Only when we are in the same boat can we get through it.
After saying that, Lu Ning turned her head and slowly looked at the women present.
The third aunt sighed a lot. Perhaps it was the more lively the person who tossed around, the deeper the affection for the family. She raised her head and slowly looked at the main hall, where there was the most beautiful memory of her youth. After three generations, a hundred years of family business, for a woman who is in this hundred years of family business, it is just a lonely and miserable waiting. Those so-called happiness, those accompanying happiness, are just fragments of light, dotted on the vast sea, how can they be directly proportional? However, these memories, which can even be called insignificant, are enough to make her reluctant to be here, let alone allow him to plunder.
And the fourth aunt was still as quiet as water, but there was a little more melancholy in her expression. She played with the folding fan in her hand and kept silent.
On the contrary, Chi Caiqing's face was the most delicate. Her hand stroked her abdomen, and her expression was sad and hesitant, but she also had a kind of determination to risk her life. With such changes, I'm afraid that even she herself is about to go crazy by these thoughts.
"From today on, everyone in the Hou Mansion will say that the Marquis is seriously injured, bedridden, and unconscious all day long." Lv Ning said word by word, "And everything in the Hou Mansion should be the same as before. Don't be known by outsiders with any panic. You know, from now on, I don't know how many people will be staring at my Houfu from now on, and even..."
Lv Ning paused for a while and then continued to say, "Even in my Hou's house, I may have other people's eyes. So even if it's our girl who sticks to ourselves, don't believe it lightly. From today on, no outsiders are allowed to get close to the marquis' bedroom. The marquis's diet will make special people take care of it. No matter who comes to visit, except for the emperor, it will never be allowed.
The hearts of the people present are getting heavier and heavier. Naturally, they all know that Luo Jin has been assassinated repeatedly recently, and it is more dangerous than once. Luo Jin is the pillar of the whole Hou family. If he is really framed and unexpected, he is likely to implicate the whole family. Who doesn't know the truth of accompanying you like a tiger? Since ancient times, there have been many examples of killing because of one sentence or even one action. This is not a joke.
The third aunt's forehead oozed sweat.
Buddhist scriptures have clouds, the heart is not hindered, there is no obstacle, there is no terror.
However, people who have children have care in their hearts, but how can they not care about them? In this room, I'm afraid that only Chi Caiqing and the third aunt are the most uneasy and anxious.
Lv Ning took a deep breath, and then turned her eyes to Chi Caiqing's body. Chi Caiqing felt Lv Ning's eyes and was shocked. He slowly turned his head and met Lu Ning's sight.
At this moment, Chi Caiqing has infinite worries and faint uneasiness in his eyes, and a little trembling. Luo Jin was seriously injured, and Mrs. Zheng seemed to be in a posture that everything was at the command of Lv Ning. Now, if Lv Ning wanted to get rid of herself or embarrass herself, it would be as easy as it was.
Green Ning sighed quietly, and slowly raised her head and looked into the distance of nothingness.
"When I sent the marquis back, I often thought that the people of my marquis were so thin, but now, the marquis only had this vein under his knees..." After saying that, he turned his head and looked at Chi Caiqing's slightly bulging abdomen. This is the son of Luo Jin, the loyal and righteous minister of the current dynasty. If Luo Jin can't get through this disaster this time, then this may be the last bloodline that continues the hope of the Houfu. As a royal family, what else can be done for this loyal Beijing Houfu?
Chi Caiqing was made infinite sadness and moved by what Lu Ning said. He opened his mouth a few times, but he couldn't say anything.
"Cai Qing, from today on, you will also move to the 'Louxia Pavilion' to take care of the marquis. I will arrange someone to take care of your diet and living. It's just that you are suffering. Don't leave 'Louxia Pavilion' without permission." Lu Ning looked at Chi Caiqing and said word by word.
"What?" Chi Caiqing was stunned, but this sentence was something she couldn't imagine all her life. She stood up in amaz, looked at Lu Ning, and muttered incredulously, "Madam, you are..."
"You don't have to refuse," Lu Ning said indifferently. "As the wife of the Marquis of Beijing, I have the responsibility to protect the last trace of blood of my wife."
As soon as he said this, the whole house was stunned.
Chi Caiqing's lips trembled, and his eyes turned red. He immediately knelt down in front of Lu Ning and cried bitterly, "Madam, your great kindness and righteousness, teach Caiqing to be shameless, and teach Caiqing to be grateful! The fetus in the abdomen of Caiqing Dynasty thanked his wife for her great kindness.
After saying that, he bent down and knocked his head.
"Get up." Green stared at Chi Caiqing, and there was also infinite emotion in his heart.
No matter how you feel in your heart, Lu Ning has to do what you should do as Mrs. Hou for the body of this face. She turned her head, bowed to Mrs. Zheng, and said, "Ancestor, Yan Er wants to enter the palace immediately and meet Jin Niang."
Mrs. Zheng held Lu Ning's hand straight, with tears in his eyes, but he was so moved by Lv Ning's heart, and felt more and more that she had such a righteous act.
"Thinking of my life, I have also experienced countless major events, but to the point of decadent old life, you are a child. Look at your weak body, how tired you are! Teach me how to endure." Mrs. Zheng's tears fell down. She reached out and pulled her sleeves to wipe them. She said, "I think my Hou family is an ancestral virtue, and I married such a good child like you. If my Houfu will get through this disaster in the future, my ancestors will definitely treat you like a direct relative and a good granddaughter..."
With that, I couldn't help sobbing.
Lu Ning sighed slightly in her heart, going through this disaster... After going through this disaster, will this place be her own place? As Mrs. Houfu and sharing her partner with others, is this what Lu Ning wants?
And is her friendship for Luo Jin really a partner?
Lu Ning sighed quietly, forced a smile, and smiled at Mrs. Zheng, "Ancestor, how is this good? How can your granddaughter marry your grandson? Isn't it a mess?"
A word actually coaxed Mrs. Zheng to laugh.
"Okay, my ancestor," Lu Ning patted Mrs. Zheng's hand and smiled, "Yan Er really wants to go to the palace to see Jin Niangniang at this time. If such a big thing has happened to my Hou family, I need to report to Jin Niangniang, so as to teach her to make an idea."
"Yes, that's the reason." Mrs. Zheng quickly let go of Lv Ning's hand and said, "Look at my old fool. It's important. Go quickly."
After saying that, he seemed to remember something and said, "But it's important to change into a court uniform and pack up."
"Yes." Lv Ning nodded quickly and turned her head.
Only the women in this room sat there and looked at the back of Lu Ning's departure, with mixed feelings.
"The ancestors really didn't misread the wrong person. Yan'er is indeed a strange woman who can support the Hou family business." The fourth aunt sincerely praised.
"I just don't know if Feng'er will be fine." The third aunt sighed with infinite anxiety.
Speaking of Luo Feng, Lu Ning also had some doubts in her heart.
Such a big thing happened in Hou's house. Why did Emperor Yongjia send it to the disaster relief? If Emperor Yongjia really wants to kill the snobbery of Houfu and let Luo Feng go alone, what kind of secrets are there?
What's more, Tang County... Tang County is the main main road of salt transportation near Wushangshui County, but it was flooded at this time. It seems that Tang County should be under the jurisdiction of Tang Qi, a party member under the command of South China. Wait, South China...
Lv Ning stopped, frowned slightly, and thought carefully. She had a few fine clues in her mind, which were faint but not very clear. After thinking for a long time, she suddenly remembered that when Houfu first met South China Yi, didn't South China Yi have been with Luo Feng? It seems that the friendship between the two people is not shallow. Moreover, Luo Feng once gave him a very valuable thing in the palace. If Luo Feng was only the second son of the Houfu and the unwilled son of the concubine, how could he have such a great deal?
Isn't it true that someone has formed an alliance in the back of the Houfu...
