In front of children, especially in front of Du Erlang, Mrs. Zheng is a loving mother. Soft-spoken and considerate. But when it came to Du Ruhui's place, it was thunderous and resolute. Du Ruhui couldn't refute it, because Zheng's words made sense after careful consideration.
"Boom! Boom!"
After knocking on the door, the butler's voice sounded: "Master!"
Du Ruhui's expression suddenly became serious, the embarrassment on his face disappeared, and he said, "What's the matter?"
The housekeeper said: "Master, a person came from outside the house, saying that he was seeking to see him on the order of the second young master."
Du Ruhui said: "Please come in."
The housekeeper immediately went to inform, and Mrs. Zheng didn't leave at all at this time, and sat down beside Du Ruhui.
Not long after, a middle-aged man entered.
The middle-aged man is slightly overweight, about thirty years old, and his name is Yang Cong. He is the person in charge of the shadows in Chang'an. Ma Zhou made a plan to take Du Ruhui back, and he specifically connected with Jin Wuque, so he arranged for someone to inform Yang Cong of all the plans, and asked Yang Cong to keep a close eye on everything in Chang'an City. When Du Ruhui had an audience with the emperor, he would come to see him. Du Ruhui made a trip.
Yang Cong said: "Du Xiang, Mrs. Du!"
Du Ruhui waved his hands and said, "You don't have to be so polite, you came here on Erlang's order, but what's the matter?"
Yang Cong said: "There are three things coming down."
Du Ruhui said: "Say it!"
Yang Cong said: "The first thing is that Du Xiang has entered the palace to meet the emperor. Dare I ask Du Xiang if the emperor has allowed you to take your family to the Western Regions?"
"yes!"
Du Ruhui nodded and answered.
After he answered, he was also moved with emotion.
Du Qi's people got the news of what just happened in the court, and then came to confirm it immediately, which shows how powerful Du Qi is. Du Qi's relationship network is in Chang'an, which is definitely not simple. Although Du Ruhui had a judgment in his heart, he didn't say it out, but still sat quietly.
Yang Cong continued: "The second thing is when Du Xiang plans to leave?"
Du Ruhui thought for a while, and replied: "If the old man wants to leave, at least he has to wait until the eldest son Du Gou returns to Chang'an before making arrangements. Roughly, it will take at least half a month. If half a month cannot be arranged, maybe we need to make more arrangements." A little longer. But at most one and a half months, everything can be arranged."
Yang Cong nodded and said: "Since Du Xiang and Mrs. Du are ready to leave, then the third thing is. Du Xiang and Du Madam only need to pack everything, and when they want to set off, just start, don't worry about the safety along the way. Safety issues , there will be our people secretly escorting along the way, so please rest assured."
Du Ruhui nodded and said, "I know."
Yang Cong said: "There is nothing else. If Du Xiang has anything to arrange. Just arrange for someone to knock on the door three times, and I will come to see Du Xiang."
Du Ruhui said: "Thank you for your hard work."
Yang Cong shook his head and said: "It's not hard work in a humble position, but it's just following the plan."
"Farewell!"
Yang Cong got up and left.
After Yang Cong left, Mrs. Zheng looked at Du Ruhui again, and said, "Husband, you understand now. You think the emperor would really let you go so mercifully, that's impossible. It's because of Erlang's plan, This is what happened today. If it wasn¡¯t Erlang¡¯s plan, the emperor would not have let him go. Speaking of which, it¡¯s thanks to Erlang, a boy who was smart enough to send Changsun Chong to the Western Regions, and Changsun Wuji didn¡¯t dare to stop him. Otherwise, we It will be very difficult to go to the Western Regions."
Du Ru smiled bitterly.
At this time, he naturally knew that his going to the Western Regions was all planned by Du Qi. If not, it would be impossible for him to go to the Western Regions.
Mrs. Zheng stood up and said, "Husband, please arrange for someone to send a letter to Da Lang, so that he can return home quickly. Our Du family is now moving to the Western Regions. There are still many things to take care of when we go to the Western Regions. Go clean up. You have to make arrangements in advance, otherwise you will be in a hurry when things come to an end."
Du Ruhui said: "Ma'am, go and do your work, I know what to do."
Zheng Shi nodded, got up and left.
Du Ruhui didn't take care of the clean-up, but just waited for Du Qi to come back in Chang'an. In about a month, Du Gou brought his wife and children back to join Du Ruhui and the others.
The family left Chang'an on February 12th. Du Ruhui left without fanfare, and without notifying anyone, he left quietly when he left.
Even so, the family leftAfter returning home, the news spread to the palace very quickly. Li Shimin heard the news of Du Ruhui's departure, looked down at Fang Xuanling who was reporting government affairs, and said, "Xuanling, Keming has left Chang'an."
Fang Xuanling sighed when he heard the words.
Immediately, Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, brother Keming is leaving, why don't you go and see him off?"
Li Shimin said: "Xuanling, seeing each other is worse than not seeing each other. I am too lazy to go now."
Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, I think I should go there."
Li Shimin said: "I don't want to go."
In Li Shimin's heart, he actually didn't want to see Du Ruhui again. The reason is very simple, he personally arranged for Du Ruhui to go to the Western Regions, so Li Shimin didn't want to go.
Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, in terms of love, Du Ruhui has followed His Majesty for more than ten years. He is not only a monarch and minister, but also a brother and brother. Yu Li, Du Ruhui is Du Qi's father. He is going to the Western Regions. Your Majesty Going to see them off is also to ease the relationship between the two parties. Therefore, I think that Your Majesty should go to see them off."
Li Shimin fell silent, and said after a while: "Let's go, Xuanling will go with me."
"yes!"
Fang Xuanling should go down.
Li Shimin took Fang Xuanling out of the city in a carriage, and hurried on the road, especially taking a shortcut, so he left the city first, and waited quietly on the halfway west to Longyou Road.
Fortunately, Li Shimin didn't wait for a long time before he saw carriages approaching. The distance was shortened to less than a hundred steps, Li Shimin immediately arranged for someone to notify.
After a while, Du Ruhui had come to wait in the gazebo by the roadside in person. Du Ruhui stepped forward and said respectfully: "Du Ruhui, a grassroots citizen, please refer to Your Majesty." He has resigned now, and is no longer the former prime minister, but an ordinary citizen.
Li Shimin said: "Now, I am just seeing you off as an old friend, so there is no need to be formal between you and me. Keming, you are leaving Chang'an now. From then on, you will not be able to return to Chang'an until you know the year of the monkey. Now go to the Western Regions. The journey is long and the climate is bitter and cold. Take care all the way to the Western Regions."
Du Ruhui said: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Li Shimin originally had a lot to say in his heart, but now that he saw Du Ruhui, he had nothing to say, so after a few simple words, Li Shimin said: "Keming, it's getting late, let's hurry."
Fang Xuanling said: "Brother Keming, take care all the way."
"Farewell!"
After Du Ruhui said something, he got up and left.
The team of a group set off to leave, and Li Shimin also turned back to the palace. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
