"Elder-in-law" migraine

Chapter 42

Ren Zhi left the palace and leisurely returned to the palace, first he found the butler in the mansion, gave some instructions, then turned his head and went to the Fusheng courtyard.

Before getting close to the door of Fusheng's room, the door opened from the room, Ren Zhi stood at the door, saw Fusheng lying lazily on the bed, and waved to him, "I heard that Prince Xiaoyao is mighty in the court. Leading the army on behalf of His Majesty, the whole court respects the prince very much!"

"Respect?" Ren Zhi sneered, "How many people are waiting to see my defeat, to see my jokes, and to see how His Majesty will end up. This is true for the peace faction, so why not the war faction?"

Fu Sheng sat up and looked at Ren Zhi with some helplessness, "Even if you know this, why bother with such a crap thing? If you win, no one will remember your hard work, and if you lose, countless people will wait to see your jokes."

Ren Zhi shook his head, "I'm not going to fight, so should I let him conquer? Or let the Khitan bully us, and according to the Lord Peace faction, give them money, food and grass, and beg them to leave?"

Fu Sheng sighed, "If that's the case, I'll go with you when I leave the station this time. Your Majesty can rest assured that I'm here."

"No." Ren Zhi refused, "You need to watch for me in Beijing, you need to take care of the palace, and your majesty's safety also needs your protection, and more importantly, I want you to help me watch that Ji Zhi, I I always feel that he deliberately provoked me to fight, I don't know if he will do anything after I leave Beijing this time. With you here, I can feel at ease even if I have a number."

Fu Sheng had no choice but to nod, "Okay, I understand, don't worry if I'm here in Beijing. I have two confidantes in the Southern Army, they are a pair of brothers, named Feng Ce and Feng Yan, who are highly skilled in martial arts and loyal. Geng Geng, you go to Khitan this time, and take them with you, in case you become the commander of the army out of thin air, and the soldiers under you refuse to accept it, so you have someone to take care of you to protect your safety."

Ren Zhi laughed, "Okay, then bring it." His eyes swept across Fusheng's room, and suddenly he found an exquisite kit on Fusheng's bedside, he glanced at it and bent his lips into a smile, Before he reached out to the kit, he was stopped by Fu Sheng.

Ren Zhi blinked, "Why, can't you touch it? That pretty lady in pink shouldn't be such a stingy person, right?"

Fu Sheng stuffed the kit into his bosom, and glared at Ren Zhi, "Stop talking nonsense, isn't it okay that this kit was given to me by the old lady?"

"I can recognize what the old lady embroiders at a glance. The old lady was sloppy with these things when she was young, so she embroiders very slowly now, and the stitches are not so fine. Looking at the stitches, it must have been embroidered by a girl with a particularly delicate mind. If I'm not mistaken, that Miss Lin Xianlin is quite ingenious." Ren Zhi said while looking at Fu Sheng's expression, when Lin Xian's name was mentioned, Fu Sheng's expression became extraordinarily soft, making Ren Zhi When I saw it, I felt my mind softened.

Fu Sheng reached out and took out the kit from his bosom, curled his lips and handed it to Ren Zhi, "If you want to read it, I'll show you it, and return it to me after reading it. If you want, I can do it someday when I'm in a good mood." By the way, let me ask if she is willing to embroider one for you."

Ren Zhi hurriedly waved his hand, "I don't dare to ask for something so finely crafted. As long as the two of you get along well, I'll be content. Then, when I win the victory, I will ask His Majesty to marry you two, how about it?"

Fu Sheng's ears were slightly red, but he laughed and nodded, "Okay, then I will entrust my life-long affairs to you, brother, I will wait for you to come back after a big victory."

Ren Zhi chatted with him for a while in the floating room, looked at the time, the old lady should have woken up from her afternoon nap, and then got up and went to the old lady's room, the old lady was writing before the case and didn't know what to write. Grinding ink for her by her side, when he heard him come in, Lu Zhu raised his head and bowed to him, but the old lady was still writing intently, without even raising her head.

Ren Zhi slowed down, walked behind the old lady, looked down at her writing something on the paper, the old lady finished writing the last word, put down the pen, looked up at Ren Zhi, "come back and say goodbye to me ?”

Ren Zhi sighed, "Why did the news come back so quickly, and I want to tell you personally."

"It is both a good thing and a bad thing for you to be the head of the army to lead the army at a young age. You are young and courageous, so you won't be timid when you go to the battlefield, but because you are young, the soldiers of the three armies may not obey you. But looking at the whole country , probably no one is more suitable than you to go. If it were someone else, His Majesty would not give him so much authority, and it would be even more troublesome for him to be tied up on the battlefield." The old lady looked at Ren Zhi and said slowly.

Ren Zhi nodded, "So, I have no choice but to take the initiative to ask for a fight. I can't just watch the Khitans rampant on my Zheng'an land."

"Go ahead, it's also a good thing for you to go out and experience more. You have read so many military books in vain, and you will never know what to do until you are on the battlefield."

The old lady folded up the ink-stained words and stuffed them into a newly sewn brocade bag, "This letter is addressed to the governor of Jizhou. He and my elder brother are old friends. After reading this letter, I am very happy." You will take care of it more or less, and you will be able to walk better on the road to Yingzhou."

Ren Zhi took the kit and looked down, "I didn't expect you to drive this kit out."

The old lady glared at Ren Yi, "Why, don't you think I can embroider it?"

Ren Zhi put the brocade bag in his arms carefully, and said softly, "No matter what it looks like, I will keep it well, because it was embroidered by my mother herself, and all her thoughts about me are in it."

The old lady reached out and touched Ren Zhi's face, "Forget it, if you are a child, you will not be allowed to stay. Since you are a man, you should fight on the battlefield and defend your family and country."

Ren Zhi suddenly clasped his fists together, "My child respects mother's instruction."

The old lady withdrew her hand and turned around, "Forget it, you must be going back to the palace tonight. According to that person's temper, I probably want to get along with you day and night these days. The things you are going to fight, I will They will all be prepared for you, and it will be fine to go back to the mansion to pick them up on the day before leaving."

Ren Zhi suddenly knelt on the ground, "During the days when the boy is not in Beijing, please mother take care of your body, and take care of you personally when the boy returns from victory."

The old lady stretched out her hand and pulled Ren Zhi up, took a deep breath, then shook her head, "Okay, I see, you can go."

Ren Zhi got up and glanced at Luzhu, who nodded hurriedly, "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely take good care of the old lady during the days when you are not in the mansion, and I will invite the imperial doctor to come to the mansion on time to check her pulse. Discuss with Mr. Fusheng in time, you can rest assured."

Ren Zhi nodded, "Thank you for your hard work." Then he turned around and left the house to enter the palace.

When Ren Zhi entered the palace, the sky was already dark, candles were lit in each hall, and the lanterns outside the hall were also lit, Ren Zhi walked slowly towards Funing Hall.

Xiao Pinghou was the first to see Ren Zhi's figure at the gate of the hall, and ran forward quickly, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is waiting for you to have dinner together."

Ren Zhi smiled and shook his head, "Understood, I'll go in right away, and quickly order someone to bring the dinner in."

Xiao Ping hurriedly went to give instructions, let him turn his head and entered the hall, the lights in the hall were dim, Duan Yixian did not bend down to read a book in front of the desk, but stood blankly in front of the window, the window was opened, let the evening wind blow into the hall, no any action.

Ren Zhi walked over lightly, just as he was about to reach out to pat him on the shoulder, Duan Yixian turned around suddenly, stretched out his hand to embrace Ren Zhi in his arms, closed his eyes with a tired face, and leaned all his weight on Ren Zhi body.

Ren Zhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he could only stretch out his hand to embrace Duan Yixian, and patted him on the back lightly, "What's wrong with you, I'm not used to you like this."

Duan Yixian sighed softly, "I have been thinking all afternoon, you are leaving me to go to the battlefield alone, I can only stand in front of the window every day, waiting for the news from the front line, waiting for when you will return, As long as I think about that day, I just feel that there is no end in sight and no end."

Ren Zhi tightened his arms, pressed his head on Duan Yixian's shoulder, and sighed softly, "Duan Yixian, why am I willing to leave my hometown and go to a different place to fight against others?"

"Then I won't go. If you don't go, there will always be someone else who can go." Duan Yixian buried his head in Ren Zhi's arms, and the voice that came out sounded different from the past, but a little more willful.

Ren Zhi couldn't laugh or cry, "Your Majesty, there is no joke in the army, not to mention, if someone else can go, why should it be my turn to fight."

Duan Yixian raised his head slowly after a long time, "I used to think that as long as I ascended the throne, I would be able to achieve my wish, at least I would never have to wrong you again, but I never thought that there are still so many helpless things."

Ren Zhi patted Duan Yixian on the shoulder, "Forget it, don't think so much, I told them to pass on the dinner, let's have dinner together."

The two walked to the table one after the other, the dinner was already set, Ren Zhi straightened up and served a bowl of porridge for Duan Yixian, and put it in front of Duan Yixian, "You don't have to worry so much at all, if you leave the station this time It's someone else, but you still have so many worries? Now it's me, don't you believe me? "

Duan Yixian shook his head, "How could I not believe you?"

"That's it. With me here, you should rest assured that I will only do better and not let you down. Moreover, I will never betray you, and you will have fewer worries and worries. In this way Wouldn't it be better?" Ren Zhi smiled and served Duan Yixian's dishes.

Duan Yixian raised his eyes to look at Ren Zhi, then suddenly poked his head over and kissed Ren Zhi's lips, all the servants led by Xiao Ping lowered their heads, as if they didn't see anything.
