Chapter 530 Northwest Road (Part 2)

As we talked all the way, we arrived before we knew it.

Zhou Heng was somewhat shocked to learn from Chuntao that Chunyu didn't seem to get along well with her husband:

"Sister Chunyu got married last year and came to the northwest. As you know, her parents-in-law are in Beijing and don't need to serve her. Normally...it's pretty good."

"After the slave came, Sister Chunyu took her to play on the river beach outside the city when she had free time. She picked up stones and watched people putting paper kites. At first, the slave was quite happy. But then she saw that,

Sister Chunyu gets a little dazed every time she goes to the river beach. She sits there looking absent-minded. When asked, she says that slaves and children don't understand."

"Miss Cousin, I am not stupid either. Although Sister Chunyu is not allowed to tell others about this matter, and I have not even told my mother-in-law, I can't help but think about it in my heart. At first, I thought that Sister Chunyu was thinking about her brother-in-law.

, like, um... But she always sat on the river beach in a daze, and her face looked gloomy, which didn't quite feel like it. The slave girl later asked her if she missed home and her parents, Sister Chunyu

Just sigh."

"I was so angry when I asked you that day. Your parents are not here. Why do you say I don't understand? If you don't answer the questions, you are relying on your old age! So I gritted my teeth and asked Sister Chunyu directly, is it true? Is it true?

It has something to do with her husband’s family!”

"What did Chun Yu say?" Zhou Heng patted her hand to encourage her. He didn't expect that Chun Yu would have such hidden secrets after marrying Yuan Yuan. Fortunately, Chuntao came with her.

When Chuntao said this, she sighed like an adult:

"Sister Chunyu still didn't answer me, but she didn't refute either. She just sighed and said that she would understand it when she grows up. I felt that she was admitting it in disguise. Cousin, don't you think so?"

"Miss Chuntao is smart!" Aunt Peng, who was listening next to her, teased her daughter in her arms and praised her with a smile. The little maid was very articulate.

"Is that so..." Zhou Heng muttered, but he didn't expect that the marriage achieved by seeking marriage would not be so harmonious? Also, at that time, the man might have been attracted by Chun Yu's family background and appearance, but the temperament and temperament of the girl in the deep house compound

How can we understand clearly the way things are done?

As for Chun Yu, she was a girl who grew up in the capital city. She was the maid in charge of the inner study in the palace, and her father was the palace steward. She had a certain powerful background. However, when she arrived in the northwest, there should be some differences in her heart.

It might not be possible to get along with her husband-in-law.

To put it bluntly, is it because of the blind marriage and dumb marriage that the two of them don’t have much in common?

Thinking of this, Zhou Heng felt that he did not ask Chunyu to come over to serve him, and he did not know if he had done the right thing.

"It's okay, they are still young after all," Aunt Peng seemed to have read through her thoughts, and added next to her: "When we are young, we are all impulsive and will inevitably stumble. We haven't figured out the other person's temper yet. It's been too long.

, once you know the other person’s sincerity, it will naturally be fine!”

That's you and Uncle He, Zhou Heng responded silently in his heart, you two are brothers and sisters, and that's what you two only realized after many years of separation. Chunyu and her husband-in-law don't have such a relationship foundation.

Having said that, since it was someone else's business, Zhou Heng decided to follow Aunt Peng's advice and think about the good side first.

And right now, what matters is my own side, after all, it's "happy to move to a new home" again.

Lieutenant General Wu's ability to do things is naturally very good, but since he has already met his wife, Mrs. Xu, Zhou Heng thinks that it should be mainly due to this cousin Xu. Not only is the location of the house quite good, it is quiet in the middle of the bustle, but also the details in the house are

, everything was arranged in place, and Aunt Peng, who was holding her daughter, couldn't help but admire her, and the guards also had approval on their faces.

The guard boss walked around and came over to report to Zhou Heng before dinner:

"Miss, there is a cellar under the kitchen of this house, which can be used to store winter vegetables. It must be common in the northwest."

"But except for that one place, General Wu gave his subordinates a structural diagram of the house before. According to the diagram, the subordinates found a secret door behind the cabinet in the wing room. There was a secret passage under the secret door, which only allowed one person to pass.

It can be used to defend against enemies. The secret passage is not long, and up there is a small house facing the street, which is about two streets away from us. There is a rolling stone pier next to the secret passage. If you press the secret passage, you will be able to

There is no way to get out of the secret passage."

"Okay, then let's stay here with peace of mind!" Zhou Heng nodded and told everyone: "Go out and see the surroundings tomorrow. Let's go to bed early tonight!"

But when he really rested, lying on the bed, listening to the little guy next to him snoring slightly, Zhou Heng felt a little unable to sleep. The news that Vice General Wu said during the day came to mind again:

"...The southwest road is far away, and it is very inconvenient for news to come and go. Therefore, the letter from the prince is also concise and to the point."

"The Queen is on the Southwest Road. It's not just a day or two. It's still going well now, which means that the people on the Southwest Road have been attracted by her. In fact, even before the palace change last year, they were already members of the Queen's party.

, the prince mentioned in his letter that the governor of the Southwest Road there also served in the capital at that time. It is conceivable that he must have an unknown relationship with the queen's father, Taishi Jiang. Otherwise, there would be no so-called fourth prince.

Maybe just support her fully."

"Speaking of which, it's a good thing that we don't have a governor on the Northwest Passage. Of course, there was one before. But later when the barbarians invaded the border, the governor could no longer guard the border and even thought of escaping first. That's why the old prince saw that the dragons had no heads.

, something to raise your arms. I think you, Cousin Zhou, must be aware of this matter. At that time, the entire Jingbian Army on the Northwest Road was like a loose pile of sand, and collapsed in one strike. Not to mention the barbarians breaking the city, the vanguard troops had already reached Taiyuan!

Otherwise, the imperial court would not have directly recruited the old prince's men as the imperial army and given them the prestigious name of 'Jingguo Army'!"

"Oh, so now the prince has voted for the queen. To be honest, I didn't agree with it at first. It was too risky. It was like taking chestnuts from the fire! Fortunately, the Jingguo army was loyal and courageous. Even so, to be honest, this is the northwest road.

The sky is high and the emperor is far away, but I still try my best to suppress some things and let them come out little by little depending on the situation."

"But your cousin Xu is right. Alas, it's not easy for Ah Fu. I didn't look at you and Cousin Shen. Both of you have made such great sacrifices. In fact, when you come to Ah Fu, you are already the third generation of King Jing.

There are some things that we know very well. The only wealth and splendor of Prince Jing's Mansion is in danger just by keeping it intact."

"So taking chestnuts from the fire is a bit risky, but opportunities come from danger! Although the prince didn't say much in the letter, he also mentioned that the queen still trusts him as always. So these days I am also thinking about whether it will

What happened to the fourth prince was actually the prince’s idea, used to confront the one in the capital?”

"Although taking refuge in the Queen brought the prince's reputation into disrepute, the person in the capital might have suspected that the prince had hidden the real fourth prince before, so he had to help the young master of the princess' family to set up a decoration there to show his legitimacy.

Now, the young master’s safety is considered safe for the time being..."

"It's just such a dangerous move. Although the prince is leading a large army of the imperial court, I don't know how he persuaded his subordinates. I think I still have to be careful and not let down."

"We have to prepare as soon as possible. Cousin Zhou, this is why we have to arrange for you and Your Majesty to live outside. Although the palace is the first-class safe place on the northwest road, it can't be guaranteed to be crowded.

, if people know that the real fourth prince is actually here, then...the consequences will be disastrous!"
