Taking advantage of Jiang's mother's daze, Jiang Shu said decisively: "Tomorrow I will accompany my mother to Zhaojue Temple to find the master in charge and ask for the most powerful ghost exorcism charm..."
No, when did she agree?
No, why did it become a talisman business?
Mother Jiang frowned, feeling that something was wrong.
Jiang Shu added: "Besides that, we need to bring more guards with strong martial arts skills to ensure nothing goes wrong. What do you think, mother?"
Before Jiang's mother could answer, Jiang's father said first, "I think Shu'er has thought very carefully."
Jiang's mother finally came to her senses, glared at the two of them and said, "You two, father and daughter, have already colluded together to deceive me, right?"
"Mom, how can this be deception? I'm trying to find a way to reassure you and ensure dad's safety." Jiang Shu walked up behind Jiang's mother and squeezed her neck and shoulders as if to please her.
Jiang's mother pulled her down angrily and asked Jiang's father, "Do you have to go?"
Jiang's father said seriously: "When it comes to doing business, there is no reason not to run into business. Shu'er can't escape now, so I can only go."
"Don't worry, I will be extra careful to come back safely before the Chinese New Year and reunite the family."
Mother Jiang is not ignorant, but she is confused when she cares. Knowing that he couldn't stop him, he sighed: "Okay, tomorrow we will go to Zhaojue Temple to ask for talismans."
"Are you really going to invite me?" Father Jiang felt that it was not necessary and it would be more practical to bring more guards.
Jiang's mother's face darkened when she heard this, and Jiang Shu hurriedly said: "Of course I want to invite you, be careful with the ship that sails for ten thousand years, and there is no harm in taking more precautions."
"Shu'er is still sensible." Jiang's mother patted Jiang Shu's hand.
Jiang Shu looked obedient and agreed with Jiang's mother on the time to go to Zhaojue Temple tomorrow.
Jiang's father couldn't resist, and he was afraid that Jiang's mother would stop him if he kept talking, so he let them go.
Anyway, he had to make arrangements for various stores, and it would take a few days before he could leave.
The next day, Jiang Shu accompanied Jiang's mother to Zhaojue Temple.
The mother and daughter knelt in front of the Buddha and prayed for the peace talisman for Jiang's father. Finally, I went to find the host and asked for the ghost exorcism charm solemnly.
After taking the two talismans back and giving them to Jiang's father and strictly instructing him to carry them with him, Jiang's mother breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.
On November 13, reports of the border war were sent back to Shangjing.
Yu Cheng led 30,000 elites and arrived at the border with reinforcements for a surprise attack. They dealt a painful blow to Mobei. The Mobei army retreated ten miles. The two armies faced each other and the border was temporarily peaceful.
The emperor felt relieved after listening to Gao He's words, and all the officials also took a deep breath.
"My dear friends, you have worked very hard these days. I will take a rest tomorrow."
All the baggage for the border has been sent, and the autumn taxes have been collected into the treasury in the past few days. The important affairs of the court have been handled properly, and the emperor also wants to breathe a sigh of relief.
After all the officials thanked him and left, the emperor went to Zhongling Palace in a relaxed mood.
Seeing how happy he was, Concubine Yu knew that the good news must have been sent back from the border.
After asking, Concubine Yu rubbed her forehead and said, "The prince's personal military expedition has boosted his morale. With sufficient follow-up troops and troops, he will be able to repel Mobei and secure the border."
"Yes." The emperor responded with his eyes closed, enjoying the leisurely moment.
Yu Zheng brought the news back to the palace, and Jiang Shu was overjoyed when he learned about it.
"Very good."
Yu Zheng changed out of his court clothes, tied his belt and said, "I'll take a rest tomorrow, so you can take a day off too."
Jiang Shu responded with a smile: "Okay."
As a family of three, they may not have had time to spend time together for a long time.
After breakfast, Yu Zheng went to deal with the official business at hand, while Jiang Shu went out to arrange matters in the shop and prepare for rest tomorrow.
The weather got colder and colder. The next day was cloudy, and the cold wind felt like needles pricking my face.
Jiang Shu and Yu Zheng didn't go out, so they were chatting in the house and playing with Yu Ziyou.
In the afternoon, the gloom in the sky dissipated, and the sun suddenly appeared.
"Let's go for a walk in the back garden." Jiang Shu suggested.
Yu Zheng held Yu Ziyou in his arms, and the family of three took a leisurely stroll in the back garden.
When he walked to the plum forest, Jiang Shu looked at the faint buds on the plum trees and said, "In a month at most, the plum blossoms will bloom, and Ziyou will be able to see them."
She remembered that Yu Zheng said in March this year that plum blossoms are similar to peach blossoms, and Yu Ziyou could look at plum blossoms first after she was born.
Looking at the vast plum forest, Jiang Shu looked forward to the scene of a family of three enjoying the white snow and red plum trees together.
"Ziyou, do you want to see plum blossoms? There is also snow, it's so beautiful." Jiang Shu asked Yu Ziyou teasingly.
Yu Ziyou responded with ahhhhhhhhhhhh, and Yu Zheng's dark eyes looked at the mother and son lovingly.
Unknowingly, most of the day was gone.
"Master." Zhufeng came in a hurry.
Yu Zheng turned around and saw Zhufeng's serious face, and asked solemnly: "What's the matter?"
Zhufeng said: "The Imperial Guards in the palace have given an oral message to the master, asking the master to enter the palace immediately."
What happened?
Today, all the officials are taking a break and the emperor suddenly summons them. Something big must have happened.
"What's the matter?" Yu Zheng asked.
Zhufeng shook his head: "The Imperial Guard who came to deliver the message said he didn't know either."
Yu Zheng frowned when he heard this.
"Husband, go quickly. Father must be looking for you in an emergency." Jiang Shu hurriedly hugged Yu Ziyou.
Yu Zhengjun's face was cold and he left quickly with Zhufeng.
Looking at their hurried backs, Jiang Shu's heart tightened. She couldn't help, so she could only wait patiently in the house.
Before coming to report, Zhufeng ordered his servants to prepare the carriage. When they arrived at the gate of the palace, the carriage was already waiting. After getting on the carriage, they ran towards the palace.
Yu Zheng was not the first to arrive.
When Yu Zheng got out of the car, he saw two carriages parked in front of the palace gate, and not long after, another one came.
The car door opened and Yu Zheng saw Prime Minister Xie and Xie Qi'an getting out of the car.
"Your Majesty." The father and son bowed their hands to Yu Zheng.
Yu Zheng nodded and entered the palace with them to the royal study.
Not long after they entered the palace gate, another carriage arrived one after another.
In the imperial study room, the emperor sat behind the imperial desk, his eyes fixed on the urgent report in front of him, his face solemn.
The two generals who arrived early stood with their heads slightly lowered, watching the emperor's expression carefully, not daring to express their anger.
After they went to the imperial study room and paid their respects, the emperor asked them to wait without saying anything.
But judging from the emperor's expression, it was obviously not a good thing.
The two looked at each other quietly, their hearts beating.
At this time, the waiter at the door announced that Yu Zheng and others had arrived.
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief and turned their attention to the door.
Yu Zheng and others entered the room and saluted respectfully.
The emperor waved his hand impatiently and asked Gao He to present the urgent report in front of him to Yu Zheng.
Yu Zheng took it and looked at it carefully.
After reading the contents of the urgent report, Yu Zheng's expression suddenly turned cold, just like the emperor.
Such a reaction made Prime Minister Xie and others frightened, panicked and at a loss.
"Let's all take a look." The emperor ordered.
"Yes." Prime Minister Xie took the urgent report from Yu Zheng and checked it with Xie Qian.
After reading it, the father and son looked solemn at the same time.
The two generals who arrived first received the urgent report with full of suspicion and uneasiness.
The two people who didn't understand why the emperor and the others were so aloof. After seeing the contents of the emergency report, their hands shook in shock and they almost dropped the emergency report to the ground.
"How...how could it be possible?" The two of them felt a sudden chill in their hearts and their bodies became stiff.
No wonder Emperor Xiu Muri urgently summoned them to the palace, and no wonder Yu Zheng and the others looked as cold and solemn as if the sky had fallen.
Dazhao is in danger.
