Chapter 537 is in control
As a mother, Mrs. Zhu has a lot to think about.
She knew that Zhao Ruxi was not a timid person, but during this period of time, she had been frequently asking about border affairs, and she couldn't allow her not to think too much about it.
After dinner, she took Zhao Ruxi out on the pretext of going for a walk and asked her quietly: "Are you worried about General Fu?"
Zhao Ruxi's eyes widened in surprise: "Mom, why do you think so? No, no, no, really not. I rejected General Fu eight hundred years ago."
Zhu was suspicious: "Then why are you so concerned about border affairs?"
"Then don't I have to take part in the general examination? What if I get a question like this in the general examination? I can't turn a blind eye to border issues and have no way of writing, right?" Zhao Ruxi said confidently.
"Yes." Zhu was convinced.
She thought that although Zhao Ruxi rejected Fu Yunkai at the beginning, she still fell in love with Fu Yunkai later. It turned out that she had not noticed it, but now that Fu Yunkai was in danger at the border, the girl became restless.
It turned out that was not the case at all. She was overthinking it.
"I asked your father to help you inquire and tell you if I have any news," she said.
Zhao Ruxi waved her hands quickly: "No, no, no. This is none of our business. It would be bad if dad asked around and people misunderstood him. After all, border matters are quite sensitive, so it's better if we don't get involved."
What if things develop like the plot of the original work, and Zhao Yuanxun, a man with nothing to fight against, is asking around about border affairs. Someone may be crazy and use him as a cover, saying that he has connections with foreign countries, so that the entire army of 100,000 soldiers is wiped out.
, that would be troublesome.
Even if he inquired about the situation at the border, even if he knew that the situation at Xiao Lingyan's side was not good, what could Zhao Ruxi do? If Zhao Yuanxun got into trouble because of this and put dozens of people in the house in danger, that would be bad. Xiao Lingyan returned
I have to find some energy to help Suiping's Mansion solve its troubles.
If she wants to know Xiao Lingyan's situation, she can just use her points to buy information from the system.
Zhao Ruxi was worried, and specifically told Mrs. Zhu: "Please tell dad to be careful during this period, and don't ask too much about border affairs. Border affairs are tight, and the princes in the court are all older and have many things on their minds. Although the emperor is still in good health now."
, but maybe someone will take advantage of this opportunity to cause trouble? So you advise dad to be more careful in the yamen."
Mrs. Zhu was flustered by what Zhao Ruxi said and nodded quickly: "Don't worry, I will advise your father."
After being separated from the Zhu family, Zhao Ruxi returned to Xiuzhuyuan and asked the system: "I want to know about Xiao Lingyan and the situation at the border. Can you tell me about it?"
The system was silent for a while: "I can't explain it in a few words."
"How many points, you tell me." Zhao Ruxi said.
The system thought about it and quoted a price: "Three thousand."
Last time, the host didn't bargain with it and it earned 20,000 points. It was grateful for the host's kindness.
Nowadays, the political situation is complicated. If Xiao Lingyan dies, Zhao Ruxi will never be able to marry a prince again. Even if she has made some achievements now, a woman without a husband and a family is ultimately unsatisfactory. Her life is not perfect.
Not living a happy life.
Marrying someone else is naturally not as good as marrying the fifth prince who loves her deeply and has a high position.
Therefore, both in public and private matters, this time the system did not speak loudly and quoted a real price to Zhao Ruxi.
It also requires energy to search for information. With three thousand points, it only earned a little hard money.
Zhao Ruxi can now earn a thousand points by practicing a dozen or so words. With thirty words per article, she now has more time, and can earn more than a thousand points in a day. And she still has some
More than four thousand points.
So she agreed simply: "Deal."
"I'll deduct the points first and go get some information. You'll probably have to wait a day or two," the system said.
"Okay." Zhao Ruxi nodded.
In the next two days, except for the report of the points earned by Zhao Ruxi while practicing calligraphy and drawing, the system made no sound.
It wasn't until the third day, when Zhao Ruxi went to bed and prepared to sleep, that the system's voice rang: "Host, I'm back."
Zhao Ruxi suddenly woke up and asked, "How is it?"
"Don't worry, host, everything is under the control of the second and fifth princes," the system said.
With that said, it told Zhao Ruxi the situation.
After hearing this, Zhao Ruxi was completely relieved.
Let's not talk about Xiao Lingpu. He is the second prince. Concubine Cen and the Cen family secretly cultivated him as a prince. Naturally, he is full of scheming and has absolutely no shortage of means.
Although the fifth prince was young before he was time traveled, a child who grew up in the palace would not be a pure and harmless child. His memory was inherited by Xiao Ke, who was also a man full of evil ideas. When the two are combined,
There is no best, only better.
These two people knew what was going to happen next. How could they not set traps and dig holes everywhere?
When the second and fifth princes are together, it is not as simple as one plus one equals two. In addition, the Cen family and the Fu family are tied to the same boat. The third prince and the prince are especially afraid of them and have always regarded them as strong enemies and want to get rid of them.
Because the Fu family and Xiao Lingpu were good at fighting, they had been waiting for a big battle at the border in the past few years. When the time came, someone would do something to the Fu family and his son, and then someone would push Xiao Lingpu out in the court.
When they arrived at the border, Xiao Lingpu's life or death was decided by them.
Xiao Lingpu is dead, and Xiao Lingyan has nothing to fear.
Now that the war at the border has finally come, the third prince and the prince are planning to take action. Although the fourth prince has not taken the initiative, he also plans to add fuel to the flames and take advantage.
The third prince and the prince were both digging a pit, and wanted to jump the second and fifth princes into the pit and bury them. Unexpectedly, the second and fifth princes also took the opportunity to dig a pit. Not only did they not jump into the pit, they also planned to let Xiao Ge
Look at how his three good sons framed their brothers and played with the lives of border officers. Can such a person be a king?
The system did not explain it in detail, but Zhao Ruxi roughly guessed the layout and intentions of Xiao Lingyan and the two from what the system said, and now she really wasn't worried anymore.
As a modern independent woman, she was used to participating in everything and taking control of everything. Now that she was excluded from the whole incident, she felt a little panicked. She was always worried that Xiao Lingyan and the others had not done things well, which would lead to the final disaster.
Failed and lost his life.
Now that she knew there was no problem with the arrangement of these two people, she just had to wait for things to develop. She knew what was going on, so she didn't worry anymore.
If you have that time, you might as well read a book and practice calligraphy, and earn some points along the way.
On the second day, she was practicing calligraphy peacefully when Yicui came in and reported: "Girl, the Lord of Qingyang County is here."
