One thousand and thirteen chapters: others say what they say
Although Zhu Houzhao was in a bad mood when he met such an extremely hateful person, he saw that the sky was getting late, and Ye Chunqiu knew that he should not stay in the palace, so he said goodbye.
When I got home, I thought that the news of Quanzhou had spread. After all, it was a report, not a secret report, so the news spread very quickly. All kinds of exaggerated rumors, not to mention the streets and alleys, even the Ye family was affected.
Old Mrs. Ye seemed worried. When she heard Ye Chunqiu coming back, she asked him to talk to the hall.
Old Mrs. Ye didn't politely say anything else, and reported to the news today: "Spring and Autumn, have you heard about Quanzhou? Our hundreds of thousands of troops are vulnerable and were defeated by only two or three thousand demon soldiers. These demon soldiers seemed to descend from the sky, with blue eyes and huge noses, all of them were 8000 figures, and they were invulnerable to swords and guns. Alas... From then on, there will be no peaceful days. This time, this time it was Quanzhou, and it is hard to guarantee that the next time it will be Ningbo. What should we do if we continue like this? Should we call your third uncle and third aunt to the capital? If there is anything, hey..."
Ye Chunqiu twitched his lips. Old Mrs. Ye was a little exaggerated, such as hundreds of thousands of troops and invulnerable swords and guns. However, this is the case with rumors, and it is always exaggerated. The more this happens, the faster it spreads.
Ye Chunqiu had no choice but to comfort him: "There is nothing but some Folang Ji people. Where did the demon soldiers come from? It's just cruel. These human nature is like jackals, and it's also true. But the eldest father doesn't have to exaggerate, they have already retreated."
Old Mrs. Ye opened his eyes wide and said, "What are these words? Those who are clearly demon soldiers, and they are saying this outside. Alas, I am so anxious that I just sent someone to send an urgent letter back to the old house, for fear of something happening, your third uncle and third aunt, and..." The old Mrs. Ye couldn't help but look at Ye Chunqiu with some taboos, and then continued, "There are your second uncle, second aunt and Chen Liang..."
In fact, Old Lady Ye’s heart was like a mirror. Ye Chunqiu had always been unhappy with his second uncle and the cousin. However, when he saw that he mentioned them, Ye Chunqiu was still indifferent. Old Lady Ye was relieved and said, “No matter what, those Folang machines and people harmed Quanzhou, it is really scary. It is really not to be treated as trivial matters. Alas… it’s better to write to them and let them live in the capital for a while. If these demon soldiers attack Quanzhou and suddenly attack Ningbo with a miraculous idea, what should we do? These demon soldiers are much more cruel than Japanese pirates. When the killing is launched, I really don’t know what it will be like.”
Seeing that Old Lady Ye was so worried that her brows frowned into the character Sichuan, Ye Chunqiu knew that he could not explain anything. He was just secretly surprised by the power of rumors. Such shocking news came, not to mention other places, at least everywhere along the coast, as well as Southern Zhili and Northern Zhili, they would be shocked. Now people are in panic and don’t know what will happen.
Ye Chunqiu was also irritated and said, "It's enough for the eldest father to make an idea about this."
Old Mrs. Ye took a sip of tea and couldn't help but say, "The Wang family and we are in-laws. I don't know if their relatives are willing to come to the capital. If they all come, they can still go together. I have to ask about this. These demon soldiers are really terrible. It is said that they emerged from the bottom of the sea. One of the leaders is a dragon monster. The rest of the people are carrying bags, and they are like lobsters. Yes, they are lobster soldiers."
Ye Chunqiu couldn't listen to Old Lady Ye's "nonsense" so he had to say that he would go and see if Jingchu was safe, so he ran away in panic.
Who knew that when he returned to the wing room, before he entered the door, he heard Ma Yu's vivid voice inside: "Madam, I won't lie to you, everyone is talking outside. Today, everyone said it, it is true news. Your Majesty was furious and dispatched 300,000 troops to wipe out the demon soldiers, but the demon soldiers came without a trace... Fortunately, our prince is in the capital, but don't be sent by Your Majesty to the Fujian Provincial Administration Commission to kill the demon soldiers, otherwise... it would be really bad."
Ye Chunqiu walked in and couldn't help coughing twice.
Maggie said in surprise like a croaker: "Mr. Master is back, I'll go and pour tea."
"What kind of demon soldiers, nonsense." Ye Chunqiu glared at her: "You can't say these things in the future."
After being scolded by Ye Chunqiu, Ma Yu hurriedly lowered her head and stuttered: "Yes, yes, I... Master, I don't dare anymore."
Seeing that she was frightened, Ye Chunqiu couldn't say anything else, but he was still thinking about the matter of Folang Jiren. Since these Folang Jiren were determined to take risks, they would inevitably have a special plan. So far, judging from their actions, they were obviously very meticulous. So what would happen next?
Knowing yourself and your enemy, you will win every battle. Although Ye Chunqiu knew that the affairs of the Fujian Provincial Administration and the General Office had nothing to do with him, he felt heavy when he thought of the murdered military and civilians. Because of this, Ye Chunqiu was in a bad mood, so he severely scolded Maggie.
Seeing the lively Maggie bowed his head and didn't even dare to look at him, Ye Chunqiu felt a little guilty. It is common sense for a little girl to follow the crowd. Do you still need to force her to keep her face unchanged like the princes in the court?
Ye Chunqiu said gently: "Okay, you go and rest. There is no need to pour tea. I'll take care of Jingchu."
"Yes." Maggie was blessed with a blessing and walked out pitifully.
When Maggie was gone, Wang Jingchu took off his court clothes with her stomach and said, "Although Maggie is lively and laughing, she actually cares about others' opinions the most. I'm afraid she will hide and cry today."
"Is that right..." Ye Chunqiu smiled and said, "I didn't mean to blame her, but I was just restless. This is my fault. You can find some time and comfort her."
Wang Jingchu smiled sweetly and understood Ye Chunqiu's thoughts: "Of course, you don't have to worry about family affairs. There is a great father in foreign affairs, and there is me in internal affairs. But is the affairs of Fujian Provincial Administration Commission really terrible? It's a mess now, and I don't know when the court will suppress this group of bandits."
Ye Chunqiu didn't say much, just hugged Wang Jingchu, and the irritability in his eyes seemed to gradually fade away. Every time when there was no one else in the room and only the couple left, Ye Chunqiu would put away his usual seriousness and become more relaxed and comfortable.
After gently stroking Wang Jingchu's slightly raised belly, Ye Chunqiu said: "Just be happy to pass on the family line to me. Just let me worry about such a thing."
