Chapter 657: public grievances
The Eldest Princess Lin Luotong knew she was in the wrong, and she didn't want to talk to Chu Nanzhi anymore. After all, it was the second younger sister who teased her that she came to the capital for the sake of the autumn wind. Now this woman refuses to call herself an aunt. go.
A pair of deep and cunning eyes kept blinking, and she gestured with a stiff smile: "Let's not bother here, let's let the niece and daughter-in-law go to the post house to rest earlier, lest the ancestors feel that I am waiting here to bully you." A junior who just entered Beijing."
At the beginning, this woman was just a woman from the village, and Hu Maoxi, the county magistrate of Luyan Port, dared to pull down the third sister's master and apprentice. Now her husband is the king of Pingning Prefecture, so how can she afford to provoke her.
The reputation of the shabby settlement These days, Lin Luotong has heard a lot about it. It is not an earth-shattering thing to point the sword at the Three Emperor Brothers and set a precedent for the crime of the ten tribes of barbarians.
She was really worried that the second younger sister would end up like the third eldest princess again, so she hastily pulled Lin Luoxuan, who looked disconvinced, into the crowd after speaking.
Looking at the two royal girls who left the scene in disgrace, Lin Tingyan's eyes moved slightly, and he smiled slightly at Chu Nanzhi, and then told Lin Jinshu: "Jinshu, you and Nanzhi reunited after a long absence, and you still have a lot to say Hurry up and welcome her to the inn to rest."
As he spoke, he looked at Chang Lao and Nie Lao with serious eyes, and added with a stronger smile: "The two elders have traveled a long distance, and after tossing these days, I am afraid that they are also very tired."
"What Uncle Liu Huang said is absolutely true."
Lin Jinshu's heart was very happy at this moment, and he didn't want to care about the provocation of the two eldest princesses, so he pulled Chu Nanzhi into the carriage.
Helping Chu Nanzhi back to the carriage first, she told Lin Tingyan and Yin Sinian who was waiting at the city gate: "Uncle Liu Huang and Taiwei Yin will lead my son-in-law back to the palace, and I will not return tonight. Palace."
After saying that, he got into the carriage and greeted Liu Yun and a group of little treasures. The group of courtiers outside seemed to have nothing to do with her.
Lin Tingyan had never seen Princess Shu treat others so warmly, so he went there to help Chang Lao and Nie Lao back to the carriage, and watched the motorcade enter the city with Yin Sinian and others.
Chu Nanzhi just looked at the old acquaintances Yin Sinian and Hu Maoxi at the gate of the city from a distance, and before she had time to say hello, Princess Shu pulled the carriage back, she couldn't laugh or cry.
Fortunately, those two people are no longer outsiders, so they wouldn't blame them when they saw the situation.
The little treasures are very fond of this aunt who has only met once, and they all lean towards her to make out.
Sanbao Lin Ruichong still did not forget to joke with a smirk on his face: "Auntie, Grandpa Nie said that in my grandma's house, you and our mother-in-law refused to be younger sisters, why did you call us sister-in-law brother and sister today instead? Didn't you already admit defeat with our mother?"
"Yes, how amazing your mother is."
Bringing this matter up, Lin Jinshu felt very sad.
If it wasn't because Chu Nanzhi was the wife who respected her brother the most, she would not be willing to compromise, bowing her head and calling her younger sister.
After several years of military affairs, she never paid attention to those dignitaries in the court, but this woman who came out of the countryside made her admire her from the bottom of her heart.
Looking at the petite figure in front of her with warm eyes, Lin Jinshu held her hand affectionately, and said in a gentle voice: "Brother and sister-in-law are pregnant now, and it is not easy to come to Jingling City, so stay in Beijing more often." We will go back to Luyan Port after we have time to produce."
At this point, the words hidden in her heart began to speak out: "It is more than a mistake to deal with the situation in the south of the Yangtze River with my elder brother's wisdom alone, but it is the situation in Beijing and China. I have to rely on my brother and sister-in-law."
Although she didn't speak thoroughly, Chu Nanzhi already understood what she meant.
Right now King Qinghe is leading troops into Beijing, which shows that the situation in Beijing and China has reached a state of tension.
Furthermore, thinking that the Empress Dowager might ask her to thoroughly investigate the old case back then, she also knew that she would not be able to escape easily after entering Beijing.
Fortunately, I have already been mentally prepared.
"I came to Jingling City with my family to spend more time with you."
Chu Nanzhi's eyebrows flashed lightly, and he replied humorously: "You can relax, if you don't ask me to drive me back to Luyan Port, I will definitely not mention the matter of returning."
This made Liu Yun on the side frown. Tang Yuanxi had already entered the palace. If her daughter stayed in Beijing, wouldn't it just give her son-in-law a chance to make out with the little princess.
She stared at Chu Nanzhi worriedly, but she didn't know what to say.
Lin Jinshu only thought that she was worried that her brother and sister-in-law would not be taken care of during childbirth, so she hurriedly comforted her, "Don't worry, Auntie, with me here, there will be no mistakes for brother and sister-in-law."
"Yes, yes, there is a princess, so I am at ease."
Liu Yun couldn't say much, so she could only agree with her with a smile.
Along the way, Chu Nanzhi hadn't heard anything about Pingning Prefecture, and she was really uneasy, so she couldn't wait to ask: "Is there any report from your brother to the court?"
"During the time when brother and sister-in-law came to Beijing Middle Road, a lot of things happened in Pingning Prefecture."
Lin Jinshu replied with a smile: "Only two days ago, an urgent battle report from eight hundred li just spread to Beijing, saying that a bandit army from the Dongsang people entered our country without permission. Zhang Yu and He Ying led the army to A big victory was fought near Tong County, which severely damaged the power of Dongsang bandits."
"Dongsang people?"
It was only then that Chu Nanzhi suddenly realized, no wonder she only heard the news of the Dongsang people plundering the territory along the way, and did not meet the thieves head-on. It turned out that the little boy had already made arrangements.
She suddenly thought that Lin Jinxiao disappeared for a long time on the day before leaving, and finally appeared in Cangshan. She was afraid that she had arranged this matter, and she was only concerned about the relationship between her children and even blamed him by mistake.
This boring gourd!
Chu Nanzhi blamed herself with some discomfort in her heart.
He wanted to tell himself the truth, how could he not understand, let alone get into an awkward fight with him.
It's just that it's useless to worry about it now, she looked at Lin Jinshu with serious eyes, and asked expectantly, "Are there any other military newspapers?"
Lin Jinshu guessed that she wanted to know about Changning County, so he sighed weakly:
"Tang Ru was eager to fight. He lost 50,000 soldiers and horses in the battle of Changning County, and lost the county mansion. Not only that, Princess Qian threatened her brother with her life for her own selfishness, and ordered him to send troops to rescue him. My brother was helpless. Tang Li had no choice but to send troops to Changning County, but now many officials have leapfrogged their ranks and impeached their elder brother and Tang Ru, saying that the two of them worked together, oppressed and exploited the people, and slaughtered loyal people, which led to public resentment and riots."
"It's just nonsense. If your elder brother is collaborating with Tang Ru, why would Princess Qian ask him to send troops to rescue him by threatening her life?"
Chu Nanzhi faintly guessed that this was the little boy deliberately inciting public grievances, to make everyone turn their eyes of hatred on Tang Ru and Lin Jinqian.
This Princess Qian is really a good helper, she even dared to threaten Lin Jinxiao with her life. Tang Ru was eager to make meritorious service and issued a military order to suppress the rebellion. It would be the best of humanity to not punish him. Lin Jinqian dares to put on the princess' prestige at this time, he really is a fool host.
