After half an hour, a carriage arrived. The carriage went straight into the front yard of Tang Garden, and Lord Chu got out of the carriage. Chu Lingxuan went over to him, bowed, and took him to the old man's yard.
Lord Chu looked around. This place was very unfamiliar. He had only been here once when he was young. Because this was her manor, it was now the safest home for her father, son, daughter-in-law, granddaughter, and the eleventh prince. It was even his most trusted base.
The yard was dark, even the lights under the corridor were not on. From the entrance to the old man's yard, there were more than a dozen crabapple trees on both sides of the blue brick corridor. The trees were already bearing fruit, and although they were not yet red, the sweet and sour fragrance was already wafting out.
In spring, the beautiful crabapple blossoms are in full bloom, it is so beautiful.
Because Yun'er likes crabapple flowers, and because she is as beautiful as crabapple flowers, her father-in-law's family planted crabapples all over the place, named it "Tangyuan", and gave it to her as a dowry...
Chen Ahfu was already waiting at the gate of the courtyard. When he saw Lord Chu coming in, he stepped forward, bowed to him, and called softly, "Father-in-law."
Lord Chu nodded at her and said, "Thank you for your hard work, my daughter-in-law."
He entered the house and bowed to the old marquis who was sitting in the seat of honor.
The old marquis hadn't seen his eldest son for a long time, and he was a little excited. He stood up and said, "Let's go and eat first. Xuan'er's wife has been busy since the afternoon."
After entering the side room, the three men sat down. The old marquis said again, "There are no outsiders, so Xuan'er's wife can sit down too."
Chen Ahfu filled their glasses with wine before sitting down.
The men were very satisfied with the meal, especially Lord Chu, who nodded frequently and praised, "Well, not bad. I often heard from my third brother that Xuan'er's wife is a good cook, and it's true."
After dinner, they went to the study, had tea, and sent the servants away. Lord Chu got straight to the point. "After listening to Xuan'er's words yesterday, I went to find the master, only to find out that he had quietly left yesterday morning." He added, "Not only did I not find him, the second prince came last night and didn't find him either."
The old man asked, "Why is the Second Prince in such a hurry to find Master Wuzhi?"
Lord Chu shook his head and said, "I don't know. When I was in the capital, I heard that the second and third princes were looking for him everywhere." He then said to Chen Afu, "My daughter-in-law, please repeat what you said to the master. Think about it carefully, and it's best not to miss anything."
Chen Ahfu recalled carefully, except for the green bird's nest and other things that could not be said, she basically told all their conversations, even the master's assertion of her "blessings". Chen Ahfu had a very good memory, and the subjects in her previous life that she had failed in exams were all based on memorization.
Chen Ahfu's words shocked the men, including Chu Lingxuan. It turned out that this daughter-in-law was a very blessed person! Master Wuzhi could actually tell her so many secrets! Before, even Chu Lingxuan had kept it a secret from her that the three-color ball was for the Ninth Prince, but the master had already hinted to her that he knew. He also told her the approximate date of his return!
Lord Chu was more shocked than the old Lord and Lin Lingxuan. Because it was the first time he heard that the three-color ball was found by the Golden Swallow, and it had so many special features. It seemed that Rong Zhao was attacked by the flock of birds, which was definitely not a coincidence, and it must be related to the Golden Swallow...
Thinking about the little bird I saw in the pavilion that day, it was indeed unique. Looking at Chen Ahfu again, he was not only beautiful, but also had a blessed appearance.
He nodded with satisfaction. If the Chu family was doomed to be in great trouble, and ultimately had to rely on this weak daughter-in-law and her Golden Swallow to turn the tide, then the Chu family really did not deserve to be destroyed...
Knowing that Jin Yanzi had gone to the north to look for the three-color ball, Old Lord Chu and Lord Chu were also very happy.
Mr. Chu said, "I always thought that little bird was special. It got along well with Yan'er and Dabao, but it turned out to be the lucky star of our Chu family. From now on, we should treat it with more courtesy and treat it as a guest of honor."
After hearing this, Lord Chu and Chu Lingxuan nodded frequently, saying that they would not only treat it as a guest of honor, but also as a family member.
Chen Ahfu smiled and told Chen Ming and the others what she had said to them, saying that she had once saved Jin Yanzi, and that Jin Yanzi had returned to repay her gratitude and lived in her house...
After praising Jin Yanzi, they asked Chen Afu to repeat her conversation with the old monk. They all heard some mysteries in the old monk's words.
Lord Chu kept repeating the most crucial words, "We are about to face a catastrophe. There is still time to go to the north to find some treasure bag, handwritten letter, magic medicine, and blessings for our family to save our loved ones from danger..."
Several people analyzed that as long as they found the three-color ball, the master would be able to give hints and many things would be much easier.
The problem is that we can’t put all our hopes on Golden Swallow, we also need to make adequate preparations at home.
They first analyzed the time. Since they had to give the golden swallow time to go north to find the tricolor ball, the disaster would not happen within the next month. And they could not wait until the tricolor ball in the nearby forest bloomed next year, so it should be before the early spring of next year. The general time should be between August this year and March next year.
I was given a miracle drug for treating injuries, it should be used to treat illnesses, maybe someone will get hurt.
Bringing blessings to the family and saving relatives from danger, these two sentences also highlight the word "people".
Then, the most likely possibility is that "people" brought disaster to the Chu family, it was a man-made disaster.
The person who is most likely to bring about the "destruction" of the Chu family is the eleventh prince. If something bad happens to him and the emperor is furious, the Chu family will definitely not be well off. Another possibility is that something bad happens to the "pillar" of the Chu family, and the Chu family is destroyed by political enemies.
The old man said with great self-awareness, "There are only two people who can support the Chu family now, one is the eldest brother, and the other is the third brother. If either of you is gone, the Chu family will be finished."
Chu Lingxuan also agreed with this statement and said worriedly, "Dad and Third Uncle must be extra careful in the future."
Lord Chu said thoughtfully, "Now, my third brother is more important than me. If something happens to him and the Ninth Prince is not in power, we will be easily defeated by our political enemies..."
They all guessed that the Eleventh Prince was most likely to be in trouble. So, before getting the master's "handwritten letter", the Eleventh Prince must be placed in an absolutely safe place...
Chen Afu couldn't help but ask, "The Ninth Prince has recovered from his illness. When will the Emperor let Dabao live in broad daylight?"
Lord Chu said, "Your Majesty's intention is to wait until the Ninth Prince is crowned Crown Prince and those two women lose their power completely, and then bring the Eleventh Prince into the palace." He sighed again and said, "Your Majesty is merciful, and he was frightened by the murder of the previous Crown Prince. He feels that the Eleventh Prince is hard-won, and hopes that he can live well..."
