The Male Wife

Chu Baijiao wiped away tears, "Little brother, tell my brother for me not to go out, okay, Baijiao will be scared."

Pei Cheng put the baby doll on the bed, patted Chu Baijiao's head, and said in a low voice, "You made a special trip today to find me? Do you want me to tell your brother?"

Chu Baijiao hesitated for a moment or nodded, instead of cheating, she honestly stated her purpose, "My brother has been angry recently because of the new emperor's ascension to the throne, and now the second prince's brother has such a thing, I I'm scared that my brother won't come back."

"But I dare not tell my brother, little brother, help me tell my brother, I don't want to do this." Chu Baijiao looked at Pei Cheng with tears in his eyes, hoping that Pei Cheng could help him.

Pei Cheng really wanted to help Chu Baijiao, but he couldn't go out now, and because he had to worry about Jiang Linzhi and the baby, he couldn't let Chu Xun visit.What's more, this matter is beyond Pei Cheng's control.

Pei Cheng looked at Chu Baijiao, took out a clean cloth towel from his arms, helped Chu Baijiao wipe away the tears on his face, and said in a low voice, "I can't promise you this, I'm really sorry."

Chu Baijiao seemed confused, "Why can't little brother agree to me? Is it because Baijiao is not good?"

How could Pei Cheng refuse to agree to Chu Baijiao because of these trivial matters, but if Pei Cheng was asked to tell Chu Baijiao directly why it was so, it would not be good for Pei Cheng to tell a girl who was only five or six years old.In the end, Pei Cheng bit the bullet and said, "I really have nothing to do with this matter."

Chu Baijiao choked up and said, "Why, little brother?"

"If Chu Xun really wants to lead troops to Huacheng, it must be appointed by the new emperor. You will know better than me what will happen if you disobey the emperor's order." Pei Cheng said vaguely.

The water in Chu Baijiao's eyes gathered into drops again, and they fell down, "So, is there really nothing you can do?"

Pei Cheng wiped her tears with distress, "You are still young, and you shouldn't know so much about these things. I think Chu Xun didn't tell you because he was afraid that you would worry. You, don't do this, you are crying with me now I can't help it either."

Pei Cheng felt that during this period of time, he was really busy taking care of this person's emotions every day. Fortunately, Chu Baijiao is not the kind of little guy who would make trouble for no reason. After hearing Pei Cheng's explanation and why After the reason why she would refuse, she just lowered her head and cried for a while, then calmed down quickly, she wiped away her tears and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to cry in front of my little brother."

Pei Cheng said, "This matter is not your fault."

After finishing speaking, Pei Cheng got up, motioned for the maid on the side to watch, then turned around and left, giving Chu Baijiao a quiet space to be alone.

Jiang Yanzhi was doing his homework, halfway through, when someone poked his shoulder, he raised his head and looked at Pei Cheng in confusion, "Daddy?"

Pei Cheng knelt down and looked at Jiang Yanzhi, "You've grown up now, you're a little man, aren't you?"

Jiang Yanzhi intuitively felt that Pei Cheng's words were deceitful, but because he believed in Pei Cheng's psychological activities wholeheartedly, Jiang Yanzhi nodded firmly even if he didn't know what was going on, and said, "Daddy, what do you need from me?" help?"

"Bai Jiao is crying inside, go in and comfort her, and take a look at Jiangyan." Pei Cheng smiled, "I'll have a word with your father."

Jiang Yan knew it, looked at Jiang Linzhi, and after getting permission, he put down the pen holder, held his chest out, and strode into the inner room.

Pei Cheng coughed dryly, sat on Jiang Yanzhi's chair, and told him what Chu Baijiao had just asked him to do.

Jiang Linzhi's black face, why is there no Jiang Wenyun, and another Chu Xun, "What do you think?"

Pei Cheng looked at Jiang Linzhi inexplicably, as if surprised by Jiang Linzhi's question, and said: "We should not be able to interfere in this matter, why would we ask such a question?"

Jiang Linzhi felt a little more relaxed, "Well. If that's the case, why do you still ask me?"

Pei Cheng was startled, then laughed and said: "Did you not notice the important point? The new emperor plans to hand over the Huacheng matter to Chu Xun, and doesn't plan to wait for Jiang Wei."

Jiang Linzhi was not surprised by this, "The foreign army is rampant. The new emperor should have sent troops as soon as the second prince hijacked the entire Huacheng, but now the frontier is defending against the enemy, and the imperial capital needs to send more people. , it is very difficult to transfer people out for a while, and the matter has not been resolved until now, which is not bad..."

When Jiang Linzhi said this, Pei Cheng felt that things were a little tricky.

"If we cooperate with Jiang Wei and join forces inside and outside, then it would not seem abrupt for us to contact Jiang Wei before. After all, Jiang Wei is different from the royal family, but if it is Chu Xun, I think this matter needs to be looked at again." Pei Cheng worried, "Chu Xun is a member of the new emperor, if we easily cooperate with Chu Xun, will things...be troublesome?"

Jiang Linzhi didn't think there was anything wrong, "In the face of the enemy, the cooperation between the government and the people is a matter of course. Even if someone really talks about this, it will not happen...you can rest assured. "

Jiang Linzhi's tone was very natural, and Pei Cheng was quickly appeased by Jiang Linzhi. He nodded and said, "You can figure this out."

Jiang Linzhi glanced at Pei Cheng, only to feel that this person has somehow changed from the cold and cold-hearted before to the worry-loving one now.

"You don't have to worry too much about Chu Xun and Chu Baijiao's affairs. These people belong to the royal family. No matter what, there will always be someone to help them." Jiang Linzhi's tone was full of helplessness, "Chu Xun has sent someone here, let someone take Chu Baijiao out later."

Pei Cheng nodded.

Chu Xun originally planned to come to Jiangzhai in person, but because of a temporary incident, he needed to urgently deal with the money raised by businessmen from all over the Hua Kingdom that he had received in the near future, so when he sent someone to Jiangzhai, he would By the way, I just added a word, which probably means that there is a sudden emergency right now, so I don’t have time to visit the owner and wife of the Wuwu Pavilion. When he has time, he will come to visit in person.

at the same time.

After Hwaseong was hijacked by the second prince, Mo Jinqi didn't know the news. The two members of the family knew the news, but they chose to keep it from her. What is the reason for not rushing from Huacheng to the Imperial City to accompany him.

With a big belly, Mo Jinqi looked at Brother Mo and Third Master Jiang with tears in her eyes, her mouth was full of complaints, "Why didn't you tell me about such an important matter at home? My father is still in Hwaseong, but Huacheng was hijacked by the second prince, such a thing is so serious, you, why didn't you tell me earlier, I am so worried about my father."

Brother Mo was troubled by Mo Jinqi's crying, "I didn't tell you because I was worried that you would be worried. You are still pregnant with a child, so you can't know these things at all. You said, there is nothing you can do to help. I told you, what can you do?"

Brother Mo was right.

When he knew Huacheng was trapped for the first time, Brother Mo had discussed with Third Master Jiang. They all thought that Mo Jinqi was a woman, and now that she was pregnant with a child, she couldn't be easily stimulated, so they didn't plan to send her away. Tell her about this, so that Mo Jinqi won't be afraid.

But who would have thought that this matter could not be hidden in time.

Mo Jinqi wiped her tears, "If you don't tell me the matter, wouldn't I be even more worried? A few days ago I wrote to my father, and my father agreed that he would come to the capital city to accompany me this month, but I left I waited and waited but couldn't wait for my father, I thought my father was unwell, but I didn't expect that my father would have no way to leave Hwaseong now."

"Didn't His Majesty say that the second prince hijacked Hwaseong? Why is the news spreading so fast now?" Third Master Jiang suddenly realized that something was wrong, "The news spread so fast, when it will reach His Majesty's In the ear, things may be more difficult."

Brother Mo is also worried about this matter, "If His Majesty finds out, after the news of Huacheng's hijacking has spread throughout the entire imperial capital, I'm afraid Longyan will be furious."

"I'm just afraid that this matter can spread so quickly because someone is playing tricks behind it." Jiang Sanye said with a sullen face. The news that Huacheng was closed by the second prince and was not allowed to enter and exit was originally well concealed. , but the news spread faster and faster in the past two days.

Unlike these two, Mo Jinqi was still worried about who did it after Huacheng was occupied by the second prince, but she was only worried about whether something would happen to her father.

"Brother, Husband, if you have a way, send someone to take your father out of Hwaseong as soon as possible. Now they are saying that Hwaseong is too dangerous, and the second prince and the new emperor are arguing about internal strife. If it is really involved Father, what should we do?" Mo Jinqi said aggrievedly. "Brother, husband, why don't you think of a way?"

Jiang Sanye was speechless, not knowing what to say, so he simply said nothing.

Jiang Sanye looked at Mo Jinqi helplessly, "Jinqi, it's fine if you mess around on weekdays, but now everyone is making a mess because of the Hwaseong incident, so don't make any more trouble, okay. Father is in Hwaseong Is it true that you are the only daughter who feels distressed? Don’t Wen Yun and I feel distressed? But now His Majesty has not said anything. We, a small Mo family, have no right to have our father directly ... Forget it, don't mention this again in the future."

Mo Jinqi couldn't accept it, she cried, and looked at Third Master Jiang with tears in her eyes, "Husband, what you said is true? Brother, is there really nothing you can do now?"

She chose to ask Brother Mo for help.

However, Brother Mo also said: "Mo Jinqi, don't meddle in father's affairs anymore. Is this something you should take care of?
