Chapter 235 Special Mission(1/2)
At the critical moment, Ruizong fainted again. The ministers were surprised and surprised. They watched Duan Hui and the others helping to leave, and were at a loss.
"Mr. Yao, look..." The ministers who reacted could not help but surround Yao Chong and wait for him to make a decision.
Today's court discussion cannot continue. Yao Chong appeased the ministers: "Dear colleagues, please rest assured. The emperor is angry and will not be in trouble. All of them will be broken up."
It would have been dark now. If such a big thing had happened, the ministers would have gone home long ago. After Yao Chong said this, they would have left in groups of three or three.
Chen Wanrong did not go home immediately, but discussed with Geshuhan. Now Xiao Zhizhong and his house have the Ministry of Justice and Longwu Army. There is no need for the artillery to stay in the city anymore. It is better to withdraw back to the barracks. Geshuhan had no objection to this proposal. With an order, the artillery to withdraw from Chang'an and return to the Longwu Army camp.
After following the artillery back to the camp, Chen Wanrong inspected it. There was no problem. Then he said goodbye to Geshuhan and went back to Zheng Mansion. As soon as he arrived at Zheng Mansion, he would greet Zheng Jianqiu and the others. They all looked nervous and looked worried. When they saw Chen Wanrong coming up, they breathed a sigh of relief.
"Wanrong, you're back!" Chen Zhenshi was relieved and grabbed Chen Wanrong's arm: "Wanrong, I heard that the prince was killed. Is it true or false?"
Artillery, Longwu Army entered the city, and Chang'an strengthened its vigilance, which would inevitably cause the people to talk a lot. They had already heard all kinds of rumors. Chen Wangshi continued: "Wanrong, is it true that the prince is not good?"
When Chen Wangshi touched Chen Hushi: "Master, don't talk nonsense, you have to talk nonsense about these reasons?"
Chen Laoshi then realized that speaking like this would be a huge disaster, and he was so scared that he shook his tongue.
Chen Wanrong reminded him: "No matter what kind of rumors you hear, don't believe them, let alone say them. Remember, this is a big deal!"
"Wanrong, are you reminding me? Dad won't say it anymore, don't say it anymore!" Chen Laoshi was not stupid either. He could hear what Chen Wanrong said. Among these people, Chen Laoshi's mouth was not reliable, so he had to remind him.
"You only know!" Chen Wangshi gave him a blank look.
Zheng Jianqiu hurriedly said, "Wanrong, come into the house." A crowd surrounded Chen Wanrong and welcomed him into the house. Zheng Qing hurriedly brought tea to serve him. Zheng Jianqiu frowned and asked, "Wanrong, such a big incident happened in the court, it would not be possible to calm down in a few days. Look, what should I do about this marriage? Should I postpone it?"
Today, I was busy with the affairs of the court, but I forgot about it. I hadn't thought about it yet. After hearing Zheng Jianqiu's words, Chen Wanrong couldn't help but think about it. "If ordinary people are in person at this time, it's okay to be in person. But no matter what, I am an official and a celebrity in front of the emperor. If I get married at this time, it would be really not good. But if I don't get married, the wedding invitation has been sent out, what should I do?"
With the light of his mind, it was difficult to reach a conclusion. Everyone stared at Chen Wanrong and waited for his idea.
Zheng Qing said very understandingly: "No matter what decision you make, I will listen to you."
Getting married is a lifelong thing, especially women, who value it even more. With Yiren's understanding, Chen Wanrong finally made up his mind: "I'm afraid I have to postpone it."
"How can that work?" Chen Houshi first objected: "Wanrong, Dad is waiting to hold his grandson!"
Zheng Jianqiu agreed: "Wanrong, no matter what, you are an official in the court, and you are an official. If you get married at this time, it will be really not good. Besides, if someone writes you, you say that you will marry yourself regardless of the safety of the court and will get married on your own, and you will get involved in unnecessary trouble at that time."
Although he had not entered the court as an official, he also knew the dangers in the court.
"I don't care if I give a book on ginseng. At worst, I just don't be an official." Chen Wanrong didn't care about whether he was an official or not: "It's great not to be an official, living our little life. However, the current situation is changing, and I can't say anything about getting married at this time. Father-in-law, let's postpone it and wait until the court calms down. Qing, I'm sorry."
"A man is determined by all directions, so you should put great things first." Zheng Qing had many encouraging words.
"Is Mr. Chen at home?" Duan Hui's voice sounded, and the man had already stepped in.
"Brother Duan, what's the matter?" Chen Wanrong knew that Duan Hui was an indispensable and important person around Ruizong, and he must have something very important to come.
Duan Hui didn't treat him politely and said things straight: "Brother Chen, if you have time, the emperor invites you to the palace. The emperor said, "I'm asking for it. If you can't be busy, you can't go."
The emperor used the word "Ask" to his ministers, but it has not been many times in ancient times. It was extremely shocking. Chen honestly touched his face and said, "Your Majesty, please come to the camp? Wan Rong, the emperor said this, there will be something big, you go."
Who said Chen Zhen was stupid? Isn’t this very smart?
Zheng Jianqiu hurriedly echoed: "Yes, Wanrong, you go. The big thing is important."
Although Ruizong asked Chen Wanrong to choose, he said this. How could Chen Wanrong not go? Nodded and said, "Okay, Brother Duan, let's leave now."
"Okay!" Duan Hui responded and bowed to Chen Zhenshi. Zheng Jianqiu and the others bowed and said, "The emperor said, if Lord Chen agrees to enter the palace, I want me to thank you on behalf of the emperor."
"Mr. Duan, this is impossible, it's impossible!" Chen Laoshi was both happy and could not bear it. He was busy and at a loss.
"The emperor's fate is important, go quickly!" Chen Wanrong was so arrogant that Zheng Jianqiu, the father-in-law, rushed to urge him.
Chen Wanrong didn't say much and strided away with Duan Hui. Zheng Jianqiu and the others hurried to the door. Looking at the figures of the two, Zheng Jianqiu comforted Zheng Qing: "Girl, you must understand Wanrong, the emperor's destiny is in his body, and you can't help it!"
Although Zheng Qing was reluctant to leave, she knew the general idea and nodded, "Dad, my daughter understands!"
Chen Wanrong and Duan Hui rode their horses and asked, "Brother Duan, what's the point of calling me?"
Duan Hui smiled and said, "Brother Chen, Brother Duan really doesn't know about this. You know, the emperor is in a bad mood and has difficulty speaking, so I can't ask more questions."
"Brother Duan, what are you probably doing?" Chen Wanrong asked again.
Duan Hui thought for a while and said, "Brother Chen, you really stopped asking about your elder brother. I think it may be related to what happened today."
These words are similar to those of you. Chen Wanrong knew that he didn't know much, so he had to ask. The two rushed to the Daming Palace and came to the place where Ruizong rested. They saw Ruizong lying on the bed. There was a soft chair in front of his couch. Li Longji was half lying and half leaning on it, with his eyes open.
I just don’t know if Ruizong refused to let Li Longji return to the Eastern Palace or if Li Longji insisted on taking care of Ruizong, the latter is more likely.
"I have met the emperor! I have met the prince!" Chen Wanrong bowed.
Li Longji did not open his eyes, but just nodded, and he knew. It seemed that his body was not optimistic about recovery. Ruizong sat up with the help of the palace maid, looked at Chen Wanrong, nodded, and patted on the edge of the bed: "Wanrong, sit here."
Chen Wanrong knew that he had something to say, so he sat down. Ruizong waved his hand, and all the palace maids and eunuchs retreated, and then said, "Wanrong, it's so late, I'm so sorry to invite you!"
"The emperor has made a heavy word! It is my honor to do my best." Chen Wanrongqian said.
Ruizong sighed and felt a little excited: "Wanrong, I really didn't expect that such a thing would happen. I feel so sad! Wanrong, I invited you, there is nothing else. I want to invite you to her place and see her. I don't know how she is doing?"
Ruizong was very concerned about Princess Taiping, the real sister, and he wanted to go and see it in person. However, if he went there, he would be sorry to Li Longji, so he could only ask Chen Wanrong to come.
"Prince, please rest assured, I will go now." Chen Wanrong knew Ruizong and knew that he was unable to give up his family affection.
Ruizong grabbed Chen Wanrong and said, "Originally, I could send Yao Chong, but Yao Chong has too many affairs, so I have to work hard for you."
Although Princess Taiping hates Yao Chong, she also appreciates Yao Chong very much. It is very suitable for Yao Chong to go. However, Yao Chong is so busy now that he has no time. Princess Taiping appreciates Chen Wanrong very much, and it is good to send Chen Wanrong to go.
"Your Majesty, I'm leaving." Chen Wanrong stood up, Ruizong nodded, and Chen Wanrong bowed and said he was leaving.
Li Longji opened his eyes and said, "Chen Wanrong, you must comfort your aunt and don't let her do stupid things."
Li Longji still appreciated Princess Taiping, the aunt. Although she attacked her, Li Longji still regarded her family affection and did not make any excessive remarks.
After hearing this, Rui Zongda was grateful and called out softly: "Sanlang, Sanlang, it's hard for you!"
One is a real sister and the other is a real son. Ruizong prefers that no one is good. The palms and backs of his hands are flesh, which is the most difficult thing to be a human being. Ruizong is very pleased to be able to get Li Longji's understanding.
Chen Wanrong responded and strode away. He left the Daming Palace and went straight to Princess Taiping's Mansion. When he arrived at Princess Taiping's Mansion, Chen Wanrong was very surprised that the princess's mansion, which used to be brightly lit, was dark today and there was no light.
The people from the Ministry of Justice rushed to greet him, and Chen Wanrong frowned and said, "Why don't you let the lights light?"
"It's not that we don't let it go, it's that the princess doesn't let it go." The servant of the Ministry of Justice explained.
Chen Wanrong's heart was thrilled. No wonder Ruizong was worried. Princess Taizong was so depressed. He ordered: "Give me a lamp!"
The servant sent a lamp, and Chen Wanrong put it in his hand and entered the princess's mansion. If it were in the past, the princess's mansion was coming and going, and it was very lively. Now it was quiet and no one walked around, like an uninhabited house.
While we were in the process, Wu Chongxun greeted him: "I have met Lord Chen."
Chen Wanrong returned the courtesy and said, "I have met Master Wu! Master Wu, I have a saying, don't you know whether to say it or not?"
"Mr. Chen has something to say, just give me instructions." Wu Chongxun's attitude was much better than before, and he could be said to be respectful.
He is the son of Princess Taiping. In the past, although he was not as arrogant as other officials when he met Chen Wanrong, he also felt a bit arrogant in his bones. It was the first time he had let go of his figure like today.
Chen Wanrong ignored these trivial matters and said, "Master Wu, let's light up all the lights in the mansion. It's so bad that it's dark."
Wu Chongxun never expected that Chen Wanrong would ask about such a small matter, and he couldn't help but be stunned: "Mr. Chen, I appreciate your kindness. This is what my mother ordered."
Chen Wanrong explained: "A man must see the light! Don't worry, I'll talk about the princess."
Wu Chongxun knew that Chen Wanrong had some weight in Princess Taiping's mind. Although he was not as good as Yao Chong, he was one of the few people that Princess Taiping valued. He thought that he might succeed when he said it, so he nodded and said, "Thank you, Lord Chen." He ordered that the maids in the mansion were busy, and in just a moment, the lights in the mansion were brightly lit again.
Darkness is very depressing to people, especially in this situation, darkness will make people feel depressed. With lights, this feeling is different. Wu Chongxun breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Lord Chen. Lord Chen, my mother is in the house, please come with me!"
As soon as he entered the house, Princess Taiping's scolding sounded: "Honor, is it the lamp you want someone to light? Mother's words, do you think it's in front of your ears?"
Before Wu Chongxun could speak, Chen Wanrong took over the conversation and said, "Princess, I am the key point of my memory."
Princess Taiping stared at Chen Wanrong and said, "Chen Wanrong, this is my family matter and you cannot ask about it."
Wu Chongxun knew the terrible consequences of Princess Taiping's anger, so he was worried about Chen Wanrong. Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "The princess misunderstood. How dare I interfere with the princess's family affairs? I came to do business by the emperor's order. The princess knows that the emperor's order should not be shown to others in the dark."
"It's done, it's done! With this sentence, my mother will never ask about it again!" Wu Chongxun secretly gave a thumbs up, secretly praising Chen Wanrong for being able to speak.
Sure enough, when Princess Taiping heard this, her frown relaxed and changed the topic: "What is the emperor who sent you to do? Are you going to punish me?"
Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "The princess is worried too much. The emperor wants me to come and see the princess."
"Fifth Brother wants you to come to see me?" Princess Taiping was a little unbelievable, very happy. However, this excitement only lasted for a very short time, and what aroused was sad: "Why didn't Brother Wu come in person?"
This is too harsh Ruizong! If this happens, Ruizong will come whenever he wants to come, and no one can say anything. But in this case, if Ruizong comes in person, then where will Li Longji be the son?
My sister is a kiss, but can she kiss her son even more?
No one is a sage, who can be ruthless? Wu Zetian can strangle his flesh and blood and poison Li Xian. She is very afraid of Li, and can be said to be hated. However, when it comes to the throne, between her nephew and her own son, she finally chose her own son and passed the throne to Li Dan, Zhongzong, instead of her nephew surnamed Wu.
It is very, very rare for Ruizong to do this, and he cannot be demanding too much.
If Ruizong, who had not valued family affection, would have thought, if he had changed his person, he would have thought, "You actually disregarded family affection and attacked my son. What else should I have to worry about? It's just right to kill you!"
Chen Wanrong would not speak like this, but said, "The princess doesn't know that the emperor is not unwilling to come, but the dragon body is unwell and has difficulty moving, so he wants the minister to come."
"What's wrong with Brother Fifth? Is there any danger?" Princess Taiping suddenly became anxious.
Princess Taiping was still very concerned about this remaining brother, and she grabbed Chen Wanrong and was very anxious.
Chen Wanrong thought to himself, "No wonder the emperor values this sister so much. Even in this situation, she has never forgotten to care about Ruizong. She is now unable to protect herself! Such a precious brother-sister relationship has envied so many people! However, it is a pity that the throne has caused such an uncontrollable situation! If they were not born in the royal family, but ordinary people, such family affection would have become a good story!"
When he was thinking about it, Chen Wanrong said: "Princess, please be relieved. Although the emperor's dragon body is not in a bad condition, it is not a big deal. He is just angry and attacked his heart."
Princess Taiping was still not satisfied and said in a begging tone: "Wanrong, can you say it more clearly? How is the fifth brother's body?"
