Chapter 38

It took Chen Jin less than an hour to dismiss everyone in the general's mansion. This incident had already reached Emperor Cheng's ears when Chu Xiuming didn't know about it, and his whole face changed again and again.

Because of this, Emperor Cheng originally wanted to let Princess Rui and Concubine Chen go home after seeing Chu Xiuming, but now he decided to wait a little longer and let the queen test Chen Jin before talking about it. Could it be that Chu Xiuming indicated this?

If you really want to count it, this is the first time Chu Xiuming has appeared in front of many people. At this time, everyone in the Imperial Study Room was cursing in their hearts. This is called a hideous face? Where can they put their old faces?

Emperor Cheng saw that the faces of the old ministers were much more relaxed, and his hatred became stronger. He said with a smile on his face, "Yongning Bo has been guarding the border city for a long time, and it's also a hard work. It's just right to stay in the capital for a while during the birthday of King Rui. It's better to relax."

"Yes." Chu Xiuming's face was serious and serious, and his official uniform made him look more handsome.

Even Emperor Cheng's serious father-in-law, Prime Minister Chen, sighed in his heart. Now that he saw Chu Xiuming, many ministers were upset. The rumors really made people misleading. When he thought that the rumors were spread by Emperor Cheng's instructions, even Prime Minister Chen couldn't help feeling guilty.

Even if Emperor Cheng wanted to kill Chu Xiuming immediately, he was afraid that Chu Xiuming would die and the border was unstable, so he would still act like he was kind to the heroes. Therefore, the Yongning Bo Mansion in the capital was quite large. After Chen Jin drove the people away, the mansion was a little short of people. "Only one main courtyard and one living courtyard were left, and all the rest were locked."

Mama Zhao's eyes lit up, she understood Chen Jin's meaning, and said, "I'll do it now."

Chen Jin nodded and said, "Please trouble nanny, it's harder to send all those people out sooner."

"Yes." Madam Zhao responded respectfully.

Anping went to help Mama Zhao, but An Ning stayed to accompany Chen Jin. Little Buddian squatted at Shen Jin's feet, waving his tail comfortably. Chen Jin took a special brush to bristle it. Even if he occasionally hurts it with inaccurate force, he will not struggle. After brushing his back, he will lie on the ground and brush the side, which is particularly enjoyable.

"Madam, why did you think of driving people away directly?" An Ning asked from the side.

Chen Jin said directly, "Because I don't know who can believe it, I just drove them away."

An Ning thought about it and nodded and stopped talking.

Emperor Cheng kept Chu Xiuming for lunch. When Chu Xiuming came back, Chen Jin was already taking a nap. As soon as Chu Xiuming entered Yongning Bo Mansion, he felt something was wrong. When he went to meet the saint, he brought a servant, and left all the people brought from the border town to Chen Jin. These guards did not know how to be sympathetic and had a strong ability to execute orders.

Several people divided the labor and cooperated, and gave the sales contract and the money in the other hand, and then threw the person out. What other things? Sorry, the lady didn't say it.

When he saw Chu Xiuming, Madam Zhao told the matter. Chu Xiuming said, "Okay, just do what the wife said, and search the mansion several times in the past few days."

"Yes." Madam Zhao said with a smile, "I didn't expect that the lady was so thoughtful and it didn't happen until today. Yesterday, those people packed up their gifts overnight in order to show their performance."

Chu Xiuming paused and looked at Madam Zhao, and saw Madam Zhao still praising Chen Jin. Although she was confused, she was very powerful in major matters. She opened her mouth and didn't say anything. Chen Jin didn't think of this at all. She fell asleep yesterday and entered the mansion, so she stayed here today and sent it all.

"I didn't expect such a simple method." Madam Zhao sighed, "Along the way, I was still thinking about how to find out the spies, and then I sent them away without a trace."

Chu Xiuming changed into regular clothes, smiled and asked, "What did Madam use at noon?"

"Because it was a mess in the morning, the lady told someone to go to the restaurant to buy ready-made food." Madam Zhao said, "Madam has used a few more bites of sweet and sour fish."

Chu Xiuming nodded and said nothing. Madam Zhao stopped talking. He looked at Chen Jin who was sleeping soundly, then went to the study room next to him. By the way, he called Manager Zhao over and asked, "How is it?"

Manager Zhao himself was Chu Xiuming's military advisor. He heard this and said, "What aspect is the general asking?"

"Madam." Chu Xiuming looked at Manager Zhao with a smile.

Manager Zhao thought for a while before saying, "Unexpected."

Chu Xiuming nodded, and did not say this again, but told the matter about the palace. Manager Zhao frowned and said, "I am afraid that Emperor Cheng will let the queen summon his wife to the palace tomorrow."

"Yeah." Chu Xiuming thought of this after knowing what Chen Jin was doing, and narrowed his eyes and said, "No obstacle."

Manager Zhao didn't mention it anymore, but just said, "It would be better for the general to meet Princess Rui in private."

Chu Xiuming slowly breathed, "I will contact those people in Beijing after a while."

Manager Zhao also understood that not to mention how many of those people are left, whether there are betrayals among them. They will inevitably attract attention when they arrive in the capital, and some things will be difficult to deal with. "If the wife is trustworthy, it is better to entrust the wife to that matter."

Chu Xiuming narrowed his eyes, shook his head slowly and said, "It's too dangerous, wait a little longer."

"Yes." Manager Zhao responded.

Chu Xiuming looked at Manager Zhao and said, "You can clear the account book in the mansion first, don't worry, I have a sense of responsibility."

Manager Zhao responded and said goodbye to Chu Xiuming without any other orders.

"Enter the palace?" Chen Jin looked at Chu Xiuming with surprise, "Will you go to visit your mother and the others tomorrow?"

"Princess Rui and the others are still in the palace." Chu Xiuming spoke.

Chen Jin looked at Chu Xiuming with confusion, and Chu Xiuming explained, "I am afraid that Emperor Cheng will ask the queen to ask you about what happened today, and then let Princess Rui and the others leave the palace with you."

"It's really troublesome." Chen Jin said a little angrily, "Why... you still have to take care of the affairs of the housekeeper."

Chu Xiuming touched Chen Jin's face before saying, "You don't have to be afraid in the palace, I will pick you up."

"Yeah." Chen Jin responded, "It's okay, my mother is here."

Chu Xiuming suddenly asked, "Did Princess Rui teach you about the housekeeper's affairs?"

"Yeah." Chen Jin said, "After the eldest sister got married, my mother took me with her."

"What about this today?" Chu Xiuming needed to know what kind of person Princess Rui was. Although he could ask Chen Jin directly, he needed to make his own judgment on some things.

Chen Jin nodded, "My mother said that if I can't guess, don't guess or judge things, just solve them directly, and don't spend too much on irrelevant things."

"Is something happened?" Chu Xiuming asked.

Chen Jin looked at Chu Xiuming in surprise, looking at him with a look of how could you know!

Chu Xiuming reached out and pinched her ears. Chen Jin hesitated for a moment before saying, "At that time, the father... and a servant's wife in the family... then promoted that person to be the manager. The manager became a little arrogant. He stretched his hands very long and provoked his mother's mother. The mother directly asked someone to tie up their family and poured hot oil to the government, saying that they had stolen objects in the palace."

"Because my eldest sister is married, my mother takes her second sister with me in handling this matter, and I have two sisters." Chen Jin hesitated not because he didn't want to tell Chu Xiuming, but because this matter was really not easy to say, "My mother also said that as the head mistress, if she can't even take care of the matter in the main courtyard, then just ignore anything."

"You haven't been back in the Earl's Mansion for so long. I'm afraid these servants have their own thoughts, so I'll just drive them away." Chen Jin said with confidence, "I can't tell who can be used and who is not available, so I don't need it. Anyway, just the two of us, the people brought to the border town are enough."

Chu Xiuming felt that it was a pity for Princess Rui to marry Princess Rui. Princess Rui understood it very clearly and handled it neatly. She was not careless, but she ignored you when she didn't touch the bottom line, but once you crossed the line...

"Have you had a nightmare?" Chu Xiuming asked.

Chen Jin shook his head, "My mother didn't let her see it, but she still asked the maid to get the peace of mind."

Chu Xiuming nodded, Chen Jin smiled, "My mother told me specifically that if she was timid, I was afraid that I would not be able to play with others at all, so when I met someone who was lower than me, I just ignored it. If someone had a higher identity than me... I don't know what to do, just smile." As she said that, she showed a smile, her eyes were slightly bent, and her lips were raised, which was particularly cute. Even if someone wanted to make things difficult for her, she would be soft-hearted.

"It would be better to enter the palace tomorrow." Chu Xiuming also completely relieved. With Princess Rui here, Chen Jin would not suffer any loss. Not to mention that Chen Jin was born in Princes Rui's mansion, it was Princess Rui's thoughts...

Chen Jin obediently responded. Before the two of them could talk, someone in the palace passed a message saying that the Japanese queen summoned Chen Jin and invited Princess Rui and Concubine Chen to talk together.

After hearing this, Chen Jin was relieved. Although he still needed to dress up, he didn't have to wear that formal outfit of Mrs. Bo. However, the common words were a bit subtle. Chen Jin looked at Chu Xiuming and lowered his eyes slightly, right? Emperor Cheng was dividing the relationship between them and their husbands? This is too... despicable.

However, Chu Xiuming and Emperor Cheng were not at all harmonious. Emperor Cheng and the Empress should know it clearly. However, the three words "Home" point out Chen Jin's identity. Chen Jin felt a little indescribable when he snipped his fingers.

Madam Zhao reacted faster than Chen Jin, sneered in her heart, but she didn't show her face and said, "What will Madam wear to enter the palace tomorrow?"

Chen Jin turned his head and looked at Madam Zhao and said, "Madam, let's do it."

"Yes." Madam Zhao retreated respectfully.

Chu Xiuming patted Chen Jin's hand and said, "No need to think too much."

Chen Jin responded and said, "I miss my mother and mother a little."

Chu Xiuming held Chen Jin's hand and walked back and said, "I'll see you tomorrow. If you like it, we will stay in Prince Rui's Mansion for a few days."

Chen Jin nodded.

In fact, Chen Jin was not nervous at all when entering the palace. After all, she had to go there once every festival, but this time she felt a little different. Chu Xiuming personally sent Chen Jin to the gate of the palace. When she entered the palace, she brought An Ning a maid. Madam Zhao did not come with her. Chen Jin did not ask any questions. She turned her head and looked at Chu Xiuming who was still standing outside. Chen Jin smiled again on her face.
