Chapter 1414 Assassination
Wen Rong drank tea leisurely, but she was thinking about her family. It was impossible for each family to separate, and her grandfather didn't want to separate. This time, the emperor didn't give the Wen family face and took the opportunity to scold her grandfather several times. If her aunt hadn't been pregnant, her second uncle might have been demoted.
Wen Rong thought about how his second brother would look when he came back, and said a lot of bad things about Zhou Mingrui. Grandpa didn't know how much he heard, but he knew that his second uncle heard it.
Liu Song suddenly asked, "I heard you are getting engaged?"
Wen Rong came back to his senses, put down the teacup, thanked Zhou Mingyun, stood up and left without even looking at Liu Song.
Liu Song pointed at Wen Rong and said, "Look at his attitude."
"Is your attitude good? You start trouble as soon as you open your mouth."
Liu Song spread his hands, "You think I think we are opposites, I have to fight."
Mingyun patted Liu Song's shoulder. They were both in power and had to fight for the family. He pointed at the tea set and said, "You clean it up."
Liu Song, "!!"
At the Wang family, Yu Lu was lying on the bed. She gave birth to her child in the summer, and the confinement period was very painful. She felt very uncomfortable on the first day.
Tao teased her great-grandson, "The child's name has not been decided yet. Grandpa wants us to choose a good one carefully."
Yu Lu, "My husband told me."
Tao added, "The preparations for the third day bath are ready. I'll send it to you later. See if there's anything else you want to change."
Yu Lu hurriedly said, "Grandma, just let her make the decision."
She has now become a great contributor to the Wang family, and she is really not used to this feeling.
No matter how much Tao looked at her children, it was not enough. When she thought of the jealous eyes of the second and third wives, she felt even happier. Let the second and third wives be jealous.
When the Zhou family was not prosperous, the first wife decided to marry Yu Lu. The second and third wives often laughed at the first wife. After the Zhou family became prosperous, the second wives became jealous. Now that Yu Lu has given birth to a child after getting married, the second wives are jealous and envious. All the anger that had been suppressed in their hearts for the past few days was finally released in one breath.
After her grandmother left, Yu Lu looked at her sleeping son with a cheerful smile on her face. Without the pressure of having children, she was confident that she could hold her husband's heart.
The Wang family held a grand ceremony for the third day of the wedding because the child was very important to the family. The first boy of the fifth generation was taken very seriously by the Wang family.
When Zhulan arrived, many guests had already come to the Wang family.
Zhulan went to see Yulu and the child, picked up the child herself, and said with a smile, "This child is full of energy."
Yu Lu smiled, "Too much energy is very irritating."
Zhulan, "This shows that the child is healthy."
Li took the child, and the little kid grabbed the jade pendant, "Mom, look how strong this child's hands are."
Zhu Lan looked at the little hand holding the jade pendant and said, "It's really not small."
The third-day bath banquet started soon. The little baby cried very loudly. Yu Lu, the mother, felt very distressed, but others thought that the child was blessed with his loud voice.
Tao's eyes narrowed with laughter, while Zhulan was nervous about the child. She was relieved when she saw that the child stopped crying after she held him.
After the third day of bathing, Zhulan did not leave in a hurry. She chatted with Tao for a while. This time when she came to Wang's house, Yu Lu was indeed treated as a treasure by the Wang family. As soon as Yu Lu was born, she received a lot of good things.
After returning home, Zhao and Su Xuan also followed back to the main courtyard. Zhu Lan, "Now that we are home, what do you want to say?"
It was Zhao's sister-in-law who spoke first, "Today is the third day of the wedding banquet. Someone mentioned Yudie to my daughter-in-law and expressed the intention to get married."
Su Xuan also said, "There are also Yuyi and Yuwen. Now that Yulu has given birth to a child, they all think that the daughter of the Zhou family will bring good luck to her husband."
Zhu Lan frowned, "It's brought up again."
In ancient times, people were most concerned about the inheritance of offspring. Yu Shuang and Yu Lu both gave birth to sons, and their husbands both passed the imperial examinations. This time, it was completely confirmed that the daughters of the Zhou family were good luck to their husbands.
Zhao was afraid of meeting someone like Cheng Daren's wife again, so she asked tentatively, "Mom, I think the Liu family is good. Do you think Yudie should be married?"
She was not in a hurry at first, but Yu Lu's childbirth brought up the fact that the daughter of the Zhou family was a lucky charm for her husband, so now she just wanted to finalize the marriage.
Zhu Lan asked, "What is the personality of the second son of the Liu family?"
Zhao suddenly laughed, "Guo told me that Yuanbo has been very generous with his money recently."
Zhulan asked curiously, "What's the big method?"
"I often go shopping and never bargain."
What does this prove? It proves that Second Young Master Liu wants to change his reputation. Why does he want to change it? Second Young Master Liu knows that his family wants to marry into the Zhou family, and he has also met the daughter of the noble family. Zhao is an experienced person, so she knows what's going on.
Zhulan was happy, "I used to listen to Mr. Liu's bullshit, but now he has really changed a lot."
This kind of stinging in his bones makes it feel like cutting flesh every time he is generous. Mr. Liu cuts his flesh for Yudie, which shows that he really likes Yudie.
Zhulan thought for a moment and said, "There's no rush. You and Changyi can express your feelings and take a closer look at this Second Master Liu."
After a pause, he said to Su Xuan, "Yuyi and Yuwen are not in a hurry. If someone asks you, just tell them that I don't want to get engaged soon."
Getting married is a lifelong journey. Currently, only Yudie has signs of marriage, so Yuyi and Yuwen are not in a hurry.
As for visiting, the Zhou family's door is not open to everyone now. If someone really came to her, she would still say the same thing.
In Huizhou, the prince was escorted by the King of Qi all the way to the city defense barracks. The prince had a military token in his hand and entered the barracks smoothly. The prince hurriedly said, "Generals guarding the city, listen to my order and head southwest to find Shangguan Liu and Zhou Mingrui."
The Prince of Qi and the other generals guarding the city left as ordered, and said comfortingly: "Your Highness, don't worry, Shangguan Liu and Zhou Mingrui will be safe."
The prince pursed his lips and revealed his whereabouts. This was his first time encountering an assassination, and it was a large-scale assassination right from the start.
There was chaos at the time, and the group was divided into several teams heading in different directions. Only the team consisting of Shangguan Liu and Zhou Mingrui had the most assassins, because Shangguan Liu and Mingrui had stayed with him the longest. In order to hide him, the three of them wore very similar clothes.
Shangguan Liu shouted "Gu" at that time, making the assassin think that he was the prince. Uncle Wang quickly gave orders and a team of people rushed to Shangguan Liu, shouting to protect the prince. He knew that Uncle Wang was right. Shangguan Liu was also determined to die at that time. However, the prince took a deep breath and pursed his lips. He wanted to wait for news here.
The Prince of Qi looked at the Crown Prince and thought that the Crown Prince was still young and had too little experience. If he were older, he would not have such big psychological fluctuations.
Shangguan Liu fought for the prince's trust, of course, on the premise that Shangguan Liu could survive safely.
There was also Zhou Mingrui, who was able to quickly catch up with Shangguan Liu and confirm that Shangguan Liu was the crown prince, which was also quite good.
Prince Qi stood with his hands behind his back. He had to praise Shangguan Liu's decisive reaction at that time. It was the Shangguan family. It was a pity that the Emperor had arranged a marriage for the Crown Prince first. At that time, he also liked the Shangguan family's legitimate daughter.
Mingrui's face was covered with bloody marks from being hit by branches, but he had no time to take care of his face while running for his life. His horse had been lost, and the guards were following behind him.
Mingrui pulled Shangguan Liu to run. Thanks to his continuous martial arts training to strengthen his body, he was able to keep running with Shangguan Liu.
Shangguan Liu panted heavily, "Ahem, I can't do it anymore. I really can't run anymore."
