Chapter 786 Weng and Son-in-Law Meet
"Didn't I just say that you were given food out of past friendship?" Zeng Yongrui asked him.
"Didn't I arrange for us to protect the Prime Minister?" Zhang Hao also asked them.
"Why do you want to protect the Prime Minister? Is the Prime Minister also one of Master Chu's people?" The young man asked in shock.
"Mother, is Master Chu's power already so terrifying?"
"Haha... is it true that except for the emperor and the princes, everyone else is Mr. Chu's people?"
No matter how shocked the people who stayed behind were, Chu Lixuan had already left here.
To deal with the emperor, they really were not needed. Chu Lixuan wanted to slowly make the emperor realize the reality.
Let the emperor know the result of the small belly chicken intestines. As the emperor of Dongchen Kingdom, he has no tolerance. That is not allowed.
At this time, Chu Lixuan went to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Regardless of the Prime Minister's character, he was the one who married such a good daughter to himself.
returning a Favour many times more.
Therefore, Chu Lixuan wanted to meet his father-in-law and came to visit him in the middle of the night. Chu Lixuan was not embarrassed at all.
When Prime Minister Jiang was writing a memorial in his study, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside the door.
He frowned slightly, put the pen back on the inkstone, then stood up and looked in the direction of the door.
I saw his personal servant walking in in a hurry, with an anxious and uneasy expression on his face: "Master..."
"What's wrong? What happened?" Prime Minister Jiang's heart thumped, and a very bad premonition arose from the bottom of his heart.
But he couldn't tell what kind of premonition this was, so he quickly asked, "What happened?"
The boy didn't speak, but lowered his head, folded his hands nervously in front of his belly, and glanced around, as if he didn't know how to speak.
"Tell me! What's going on?" Prime Minister Jiang shouted, and his face suddenly became terrifyingly gloomy.
He glanced at the boy coldly, "Why are you still standing there? Are you still waiting for me to investigate in person?"
The boy was so frightened that he trembled several times and trembled his lips: "Old... Master... you... there is a person coming in at the door."
Prime Minister Jiang was shocked when he heard this, and quickly asked: "Where is he? Where have all the guards died?"
"My son-in-law has met my father-in-law." A man's voice suddenly came from the door.
Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Jiang turned his head, and when he saw the handsome young man wearing a black gown, he was no longer as unruly as he had seen before.
His pupils shrank instantly, and his heart beat violently, as if it was about to explode, leaving him breathless.
His eyes were fixed on the other person, his breathing became heavier and heavier, beads of sweat covered his forehead, his legs softened, and he almost collapsed on the ground.
Prime Minister Jiang pinched his thigh hard and managed to stand firm.
He swallowed and his voice stuttered: "Xian...xian son-in-law...how...today...today...today...today?"
While the prime minister was sizing up Chu Lixuan, he was also sizing up his father-in-law, whom he and his wife had met a few months ago.
The father-in-law looked a little more haggard, and there was a touch of vicissitudes written on his bronzed skin and the fine lines at the corners of his eyes.
She should be worried about her children. His eldest daughter is too worried, unlike his wife and brother-in-law, who don't need to worry at all.
So he looked at Prime Minister Jiang gently: "My son-in-law passed by here today and came here specifically to visit my father-in-law."
"My dear son-in-law, you are so polite. Please sit down."
Chu Lixuan stepped into the study and immediately looked at this luxurious, elegant and well-decorated house.
He did not sit down directly, but continued: "How is your father-in-law in health? My son-in-law has the temerity to come to the door and disturb you. It is really rude."
At this time, after the shock, Prime Minister Jiang was really happy, with a sincere smile on his face.
"What are you talking about, my dear son-in-law? It's an honor for you to come and sit in my house. How dare you call it a nuisance?"
Chu Lixuan showed a faint smile, slowly
He walked leisurely to the chair, reached out and picked up the tea cups neatly placed on the table.
He poured himself a cup of tea, drank it slowly, and then raised his eyes again: "Thank you, father-in-law, for the hospitality."
"You're welcome. My dear son-in-law, it's been a long journey from afar. Let's take a rest."
Prime Minister Jiang spoke very fast, fearing that Chu Lixuan would disappear if he was delayed for a second.
"Since my father-in-law has already said so, my son-in-law should be respectful and obey his orders."
Chu Lixuan put down the tea cup and looked up at Prime Minister Jiang with a faint smile on his face.
His eyes were deep and dark, like a deep pool, making it difficult to fathom what he was thinking.
Prime Minister Jiang also calmed down at this time, and he was very anxious to urge him to speak. He was clamoring many questions from every pore.
He could only pretend to pour a cup of tea and hold it in his hand. He didn't want to drink tea, he just wanted to know about his daughter and son.
"Could it be that my son-in-law's visit this time is because of my Yan'er?"
Prime Minister Jiang still couldn't help but asked tentatively, while observing Chu Lixuan's reaction.
"Yes." Chu Lixuan responded lightly, "Xinxin is six months pregnant, so she didn't come to the capital. Zihao is studying with Master Cheng..."
Chu Lixuan, who usually doesn't talk much, made it clear about his wife and brother-in-law in just a few words.
The Prime Minister was filled with emotion when he heard this, and Lao Huai was delighted. He had no regrets in dying like this.
"Xinxin and my son-in-law discussed it over and over again and originally wanted to send some food to the emperor for the sake of the common people in the world..."
Chu Lixuan paused, raised his eyes and stared at Prime Minister Jiang, with a smile on his lips.
"However, my father-in-law also knows what the emperor means. I am afraid that this food will not be used, so my son-in-law wants to take his father-in-law back with him before going back."
"Ah?" Prime Minister Jiang raised his eyebrows in confusion, "If you have something to say, your good son-in-law might as well say it directly."
Is that what I think? Do you want to take me to Xuanyan Castle?
"My father-in-law's situation is different. If the emperor makes any tricky and weird requests, why don't you just go to our place?"
Chu Lixuan asked lightly, as if he was just talking about what to eat tonight.
Prime Minister Jiang was stunned for a moment, and then he understood the underlying meaning of Chu Lixuan's words. He couldn't help but swallow.
A picture emerged in his mind. A group of officers and soldiers broke into the Prime Minister's Mansion and arrested the entire Jiang family.
He shook his head and suppressed his absurd thoughts: "My dear son-in-law, you are worrying too much. Your Majesty has been kind to me and will not do anything to me."
Chu Lixuan said helplessly: "My father-in-law should also be able to see that the emperor's attitude is very firm and he is not willing to let my family go.
If this matter is not resolved, I am afraid that the court will fall into chaos and the people will be affected and displaced. That is the last thing we want to see."
