Chapter 1950 Peaches are not easy to pick (1)
Standing under the towering city wall, Chen's eyes were red and he swallowed even more: "Old man, we have finally arrived in Beijing."
They took a boat to Tianjin and were about to rent a carriage to Beijing. As a result, Fu Laogen was knocked down and twisted his waist on the road because he did not catch the culprit and paid all the medical expenses himself.
They didn't bring much money, so they saw Fu Laogen, and the doctor grabbed medicine and didn't even have money for accommodation. They were unfamiliar with the place, so they couldn't help but use his only pair of silver earrings and a few sets of fine cloth clothes to rent a room, and then helped the man wash clothes and earn a few copper coins to fill his stomach.
After Fu Laogen's waist was well, he went out to work for more than ten days and saved some copper coins, and then they walked to the capital.
The soldiers guarding the city looked at the two of them dressed in tatters and looked like beggars, and stopped them and asked, "Let me see your documents."
This beggar cannot enter Beijing casually, otherwise the capital will be filled with beggars not only look bad but also affect the public security in the capital.
After looking at Lu Yin, the soldier still didn't let it go and asked, "What are you doing when you go to Beijing?"
Fu Laogen said proudly: "We go to Beijing to find my son, who is the son-in-law of the current dynasty."
The soldiers guarding the city were older and more knowledgeable, but they didn't sneer at him. Instead, they asked with a good temper: "Which princess is your son who is still there?"
Chen said with a smile: "It's Princess Xinyue. Princess Xinyue is pregnant. This time we are visiting our son and future grandson."
The soldier did not stop him again after hearing this, waved his hand and said, "You guys go in!"
Because it was already noon and no one entered and left the city gate, after Fu Laogen and his two men entered the city gate, his companion next to him asked: "Lao Getou, these two men are obviously lying. They have to be arrested as royal relatives, why would you let them in?"
Lao Getou asked back: "How do you know they are lying?"
The companion curled his lips and said, "Can the son-in-law's parents behave like beggars? The son-in-law doesn't have shame, and the princess wants it!"
These two people are still the father and mother of the prince consort, so they are so funny.
Lao Getou smiled and said, "Don't circle around women all day long, and pay more attention to the things outside. Princess Xinyue's son-in-law was adopted, and his adoptive mother was Mr. Lin Qingshu's enlightenment master. These two people are from Pingzhou and have the surname Fu. Maybe they are the father and mother of the son-in-law!"
"Impossible? Look at them like beggars. Even if they are adopted, they can't ignore their own parents, right?"
Lao Ge knocked his head and scolded: "If you don't understand, don't mess around, so as not to cause trouble."
"Old Ge Tou, is it because those two people had a problem just now?"
Lao Getou said, "Who do you want to say is bad? Mr. Fu or the prince-consort? Mr. Fu is the one who comes to the palace to teach the eldest prince. If her character has a problem, the emperor and the queen can let her teach the eldest prince? Similarly, if the prince-consort has a bad character, can he be favored by the princess and the prince-in-law?"
The eldest prince’s future crown prince, his enlightenment teacher, is definitely a noble and knowledgeable person. Because she taught Qingshu, everyone had no doubts about her talent.
Fu Laogen didn't know that they were criticized, so they went straight to the princess's mansion.
As a result, before he approached the gate of the Princess' Mansion, he was driven away by the guards at the door: "This is not a place for you to beg for food, hurry up and go away."
Fu Laogen was very angry, but he didn't dare to shout at the guard who was fierce and vicious, "We are not beggars, we are the parents of your son-in-law."
The guard shouted angrily and said, "You dare to pretend to be the parents of my son-in-law after eating Xiongxin Leopard's courage. Let's go quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."
The two of them were not willing to leave, so they stood at the door and entangled. The guards were angry and tied up the two of them and sent them to Shuntian Mansion. They did not interrogate them and went directly to the key prison.
Fu Ran knew about this in the evening that day, and she was a little surprised: "Are you being imprisoned?"
Yi An said with a smile: "They dared to pretend to be royal relatives. They didn't beat them to death directly but were just imprisoned. They were considered to be careless."
“How long will it take to be closed?”
Yi An didn't know about it anymore. She smiled and said, "You have to ask Princess Wang Xinyue to find out."
Fu Ran asked casually where to ask Xinyue about this little thing. She changed the topic: "Qingshu and Fu'er have been away from Beijing for ten days, and I don't know where they have been?"
Yaoyao lived in the palace for the first two days, but on the fifth day, she kept asking Fu Ran why Qingshu didn't come to pick her up. She was very sad when she knew that Qingshu had gone out of the business again, and when she heard Brother Fu also followed her, she howled and cried. She didn't know that she thought Qingshu wanted to abandon her.
"I don't know where she goes, but there will be no problem with her land."
Fu Ran said: "Last night, Yaoyao was calling her mother and brother in her dream, and she didn't eat a few bites in the morning. If I had known that she had reacted so much, I should have persuaded Qingshu to take her to Fuzhou with me."
"She is going out for business, not visiting relatives, Yaoyao is too small and inconvenient."
Fu Ran shook her head and said, "I just feel sorry for the child. I always have to separate from my parents at such a young age. When Qingshu comes back this time, I will talk to her carefully."
"It'll be fine if you stay for a while. Fu Jingen will definitely come back next year. At that time, one of the couple will be in the capital."
Speaking of this, Fu Ran said, "It's time to come back, otherwise the child would be very unfamiliar with him."
Brother Fu and Fu Jingen are very close and talk to each other every month, but Yaoyao is very unfamiliar with him, so she doesn't mention him on weekdays.
"Don't worry about this. Yaoyao will get close to him after returning to Beijing for a few days."
Fu Ran smiled and said, "That's right. Brother Fu may not have seen him for a long time, but Brother Fu has been sticking to him for a few days after he came back."
Fu Laogen and Chen were locked up for six days before they were released.
The two of them dared not go to the princess's mansion again after leaving the prison, for fear of being sent to the prison again. Although they almost suffered no crime except for eating, they were still scared in the narrow room.
The two went directly to the Hanlin Academy, and then they realized that Fu Jingze had gone on a business trip and could not come back in two or three months.
Chen was a little panicked and asked, "Old man, what should we do now?"
They had no money on hand, and the princesses who were not in Beijing did not recognize them. Could it be that they would still be left on the streets?
Fu Laogen thought about it and took Chen to borrow money from his clan members. He planned to borrow money first and settle down temporarily, and then talk about everything when Fu Jingze comes back.
Unfortunately, I thought it very well, and the reality is cruel. The four tribesmen who had been with them before were unwilling to lend them money.
When he didn't lend money to the fourth family, Fu Laogen said, "Gangzi, you lend me ten taels of silver. When Jingze comes back, I will pay you twelve taels of money."
Seeing that the other party refused to agree, Fu Laogen added another price: "In this way, we will pay you twenty taels back then. Gangzi, don't worry, we will pay it back as soon as Jingze comes back."
