Chapter 513 Disobedience

Seeing Chen being so stubborn, Chen Afu was extremely helpless. He said, "Knowing that my mother-in-law is in danger, how could we not send someone to protect her? If my mother-in-law is really good, how can I face the uncle! That's all, that's all, I won't go back to the capital. I'll just live with my mother-in-law. , I will go wherever my mother-in-law goes. We will live together and die together."

Liao Chen shook his head and said, "How can this happen? You are still young and you cannot take risks for the sake of your children."

Chen Afu said, "Since my mother-in-law also knows that it is dangerous to live here, why does she still live here? Filial piety comes first, and the daughter-in-law cannot abandon her mother-in-law."

Liao Chen closed his eyes, held the rosary beads with both hands and turned them, and said, "Amitabha, my wife, you keep talking about filial piety, so you must listen to the poor nun. Tomorrow, you can take Yan'er back to Beijing, and let her Qi'er and Song went back to Dingzhou Mansion."

Seeing her like this, Chen Afu remembered what Chu Lingxuan had said in the past. When Liao Chen was young, he once locked Lord Chu out of the door for a night and refused to listen no matter how Lord Chu explained. This temperament is indeed too stubborn and irritating.

Chen Afu is not an ancient person, and he does not have the consciousness not to talk back to his elders. She said, "Mother-in-law, what you mean is that the lives of Yan'er and I, as well as the lives of my second uncle and his wife, are precious. As long as we leave here and save our lives, it will be fine." She pointed outside and said, " As for Uncle Luo who serves you, the few young masters around you, and the guards who protect your mother-in-law, their lives are not precious, so they can die with your mother-in-law at any time? Mother-in-law, before the Buddha, all living beings are equal. The lives of those who protect and serve the mother-in-law are precious, and the life of the mother-in-law is even more precious. No matter whose life your mother-in-law believes in, you should cherish it. Moreover, as a monk, you should not pay attention to those things that secular people value. See it in your eyes. But those things are nothing in front of life... The Buddha also said that saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda."

These words were rebellious and unpleasant, leaving Chen speechless.

Liao Chen opened his eyes in surprise, his hands trembling with anger, and said, "You, you, poor nun, poor nun, how can you talk to a poor nun like this. Okay, okay, you go back with everyone outside." …”

Seeing those words that touched his soul, Chen Afu was so angry that he calmed down and said, "Mother-in-law, your life is more precious. How can we leave you alone? Maybe I can come back from the war next year. . How sad would the uncle be if something happened to his mother-in-law? From the day she entered Buddhism, he vowed to make great achievements and hoped to bring her home to reunite with his sister-in-law, children, and Luo one day. Grandma and uncle at home, they are thinking of you every day...especially the father-in-law, all his forbearance and planning are not only to help the prince to ascend to the throne, but also hope that one day the whole family can be reunited...Mother-in-law, my daughter-in-law's words are not nice. , but the words are ugly and reasonable. Think about last year's New Year's Eve, in order to protect the mother-in-law, the uncle and Uncle Luo were injured, and three guards died, and Yan'er was frightened. The mother-in-law is willing to have such a scene happen again. Is that so? My mother-in-law Bodhisattva is definitely not willing... You must not be fooled by Concubine Ma Shu and Rong Zhao. They just want to provoke you and make you angry, even if there is no one nearby. The remnants of the second prince, they may have people pretend to be those remnants to harm you. They are so bad, why should they fulfill their wishes..."

Liao Chen was not stupid, and she also knew that those words were made by Ma Shufei on purpose to make her angry. But she was arrogant by nature, and she was so angry that she was called so unbearable and dirty, so she ran out of her own way. Chu Lingqi, Mrs. Song, and Manager Luo didn't dare to say anything more. If their persuasion failed, they had no choice but to live with her.

Now that her daughter-in-law pointed it out to the point, and thinking about so many people protecting her in the yard, as well as her daughter and grandson in the capital, her mother and brother in Shizhou Prefecture, and her son fighting in the south, she burst into tears... …

Chen Afu helped Chen Chen sit down again and talked for a long time. She did not dare to say those rebellious words anymore, but told how Chu Lingxuan and Chu Hua missed her, and how cute the little brothers and Xiao Yu'er were... Seeing that it was late, she personally served Chen Chen to bed before coming out.

Although Liao Chen did not agree verbally, Chen Afu knew that she had already acquiesced in her heart.

As soon as he went out, a cold wind blew in his face, making Chen Afu shiver. She tightened her cloak tightly and walked out of the west courtyard.

The trees in the yard stand silently, with no leaves and empty branches. Through the sparse treetops, I saw a yellowish crescent moon hanging quietly on the horizon, and there were also sparse cold stars, which spread the cold light to the earth, making me feel even colder.

Chen Afu breathed a long sigh of relief and looked at Huajin Mountain again. The continuous mountains were as black as iron, mysterious, solemn, and cold... Suddenly, her heart beat wildly, and she was so scared that she hurriedly covered her chest.

What does it feel like? This feeling is really bad!

At this time, the voice of the golden swallow came to her mind, and it chirped, "Mommy, it seems there is something going on outside. I heard that several bird brothers in the east were frightened, and they all chirped loudly. Big How could this happen in the middle of the night? It’s so scary!”

Huajin Mountain is just east of Zhuangzi.

Chen Afu was surprised. Did someone go down the mountain and wake up the birds in the tree?

It is better to believe that it exists than to believe that it does not exist!

She quickly said to Hong Fei, "I always feel panicked, as if something is going to happen. Go to the outer courtyard and tell Manager Luo and Captain Li to get them up quickly and get ready." Then she said to Xiao Hong, "Go Dongxiang called up the second master and told him that something seemed to be going on. "

Then, she went back to the west wing, knocked on the window of the dusty house, and said softly, "Mother-in-law, get dressed quickly. Your daughter-in-law is nervous and always afraid that something will happen tonight... You, you must take care of yourself."

Take care means to hide well.

A voice came from the room, "Okay, I know."

Since the last incident, three dark rooms have been built in the manor. Including the bedroom in the west wing, the bedroom in the upper room of the main courtyard, and the bedroom in the back room.

When Chen Afu left the west wing, Chu Lingqi had already run out of the east wing, putting on clothes while running. He ran to Chen Afu and said, "Sister-in-law, what's going on?"

Chen Afu said, "I'm afraid something will happen tonight. You let the guards and soldiers get ready. If nothing happens, it's better. Take my mother-in-law back to Dingzhou Prefecture tomorrow."

Chu Lingqi nodded. He always thought Chen Afu was smart. Although she only asked everyone to get ready based on her intuition, there was nothing wrong. My aunt promised to return to Dingzhou tomorrow. This is the last night, and her safety must be guaranteed this night.

At this time, Song and several maids ran out, and some of them cried in fear.

Song asked, "What happened?"
