Chapter 015: Long See
(New week, ask for recommendation tickets, ask for collections!)
Nagami Temple is not far from the Buddha Hall, located in the southwest corner of the Hou Mansion, this is the courtyard where Zheng Heng lives.
Originally, this courtyard was called Changjian Temple, which was built by Zheng Heng's father, Zheng Min.
But later, Zheng Heng's mother, Ning, changed it to Nagami. In general, it means to see each other from time to time.
Whether it is Changjian or Changjian, it doesn't mean much to her.
She doesn't like this yard and doesn't hate it. If you have to say anything, it is that it is too simple! Whether it is its two-entry scale or the internal layout, it is very shabby in Zheng Heng's opinion.
She has lived in Cining Palace for a long time, and all the degrees used are either refined by the imperial court and the young government supervisors, or the tributes of the officials and families in various places, which can be said to be the best of the best, and ordinary nobles are naturally incomparable.
But the shabby feeling of Zheng Heng is not compared with the wealth and delicacy of Cining Palace. Carefully speaking, Changjian Courtyard is not as good as the courtyard of a random concubine of the Zheng clan back then, and it is still an unfavored concubine.
Nagami-in, the location is too partial, the scale is too small, and the furnishings are too old. The point is that this is a young girl's yard, but she doesn't see anything vibrant in the girl's abode.
However, before Zheng Heng moved into the Buddhist hall, he had been living here for four years. Back then, what considerations did the Ning family choose such a yard for their daughter?
Zheng Heng didn't know, and he didn't have the slightest interest in exploring.
It's just a place to live, although it's simple, just be able to live.
In the past, she lived in a cave with her teacher.
Ying Zhen, who was following her, hesitated for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage to ask, "Girl, where is the old lady...... Shouldn't the slave and maid go to the Buddha Hall and wait?"
"Not necessarily. You take Siniang down to settle down. Zheng Heng said.
β...... Be. Yingzhen bowed her head and replied. In fact, she still had doubts in her heart, but she didn't have the courage to speak again.
When she thought of Zheng Heng's eyes on the carriage, she was afraid for a while.
Meng Ying was more cautious and sensitive than Ying Zhen, she also didn't speak, but just bent down towards Zheng Heng.
So the two of them withdrew, but Zheng Heng's face was still calm.
She didn't follow the Zhang family to Rongshou Temple, but she knew what the Zhang family was going to do. ββJust returned from Yudong Academy, Zhang entered the Rongshou Academy, which he hadn't been to for three years, and he did nothing but leave the Buddhist hall.
In the carriage, when Zhang Shi knew about Zheng Shi's humiliation, his expression was quite ugly, but his eyes were extremely firm. At that time, Zheng Heng felt that the Zhang family had made some kind of determination.
After hearing the conversation between the Zhang family and the Xie family at the Hanging Flower Gate, it was clear what the Zhang family's determination was.
Zheng Heng was not worried-since the Zhang family was ready to go to Rongshou Hospital, he must have fully dealt with it. As far as Zheng Heng knows, in terms of the rules and regulations, Yongning Hou Zhengren is not as good as Zhang's in detail.
Why bother to let the maid go to the Buddha Hall to guard?
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the Zhang family to come, and the housekeeper lady Zhiniang and Yingzhen who followed behind her were all happy.
As Zheng Heng had predicted, the Zhang family planned to move out of the Buddhist hall, and received Zheng Ren's permission.
After how much games and measurements have been done with this permission, Zhang didn't mention it at all, she just looked at Zheng Heng with pity, and said, "Sister Heng, grandmother will move into Xianzhang Courtyard, and she will be far away from Sister Heng in the future." β
Xianzhangyuan is not far from Rongshou Temple, which is the residence of Zhang's family when he was still his daughter-in-law. After all, the Zhang family is Mrs. Yongning Hou, and since she doesn't plan to move back to Rongshou Courtyard, then Xianzhang Courtyard is the most suitable place.
Zheng Heng smiled and replied: "It's a good thing that grandmother moved out of the Buddhist hall, it's okay to be far away." β
She was telling the truth. Zhang's secluded residence in the Buddhist hall is a last resort to take refuge, but it can't go on like this forever, and only by being flexible can there be vitality. It seems that what happened in Yudong School Palace prompted Zhang to make changes.
Zhang looked at Zheng Heng, the pity in his eyes became thicker and stronger, and said, "Yes, it doesn't matter if it's far away." Sister Heng, grandmother will definitely protect you and Brother Shi'er, grandmother promised you a mother's ......"
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became somber. Obviously, here in Changjian Temple, Zhang remembered Zheng Heng's mother, Ning.
Zheng Heng bowed his head and was silent, and he also thought of the Ning family and the death of the Ning family......
The day of Ning's death three years ago happened to be the time of Zheng Ren's birthday banquet. Such an ominous atmosphere immediately made Zheng Ren angry, if it weren't for the Zhang family still in charge of the Hou Mansion at that time, maybe the Ning family's funeral would not have been done.
Even so, Ning's funeral was extremely shabby. In Zheng Heng's memory, there were not many people who came to mourn for the Ning family.
Of course, this is because the Yongning Hou Mansion did not vigorously organize the funeral, but more importantly, the Ning family's mother's family, the Ning family in Beizhou, had just been convicted, and no one dared to have anything to do with the Ning family at this time.
Even the Marquis of Yongning's Mansion can't wait to have the Ning family's wife, how can others be willing to touch this moldy head?
Ning's death was not timely, just like she was at the beginning......
There was a trace of sadness in Zheng Heng's eyes, but it was not for the Ning family, nor for the former self, but for the Ning family in Beizhou!
The Ning family in Beizhou is a well-known family of generals, and most of the children in the clan are in the army. And the most outstanding figure in the Ning family is Ning Ju, the general of the Guanwai Guard.
Ning Ju is Ning's father and Zheng Heng's maternal grandfather!
However, three years ago, Ning Ju contracted a cold and eventually died. Subsequently, several famous children of the Ning family also had accidents one after another. Not long after, the Ning family was convicted of holding a feast during the state funeral.
The Ning family fell.
Thinking of this, Zheng Heng's eyes became extremely dark. In the past, Ning Ju followed her to kill the four kings, and then resisted the invasion of Nanjing, and was a well-deserved pillar of talent.
Zheng Heng remembered that before she was in Bintian, Ning Ju, like Meng Ruitu, was strongly opposed to Daxuan's dispatch of troops to Beining.
But soon after, he died.
What's even more ironic is that the reason why the Ning clan was convicted was because of her. - The national funeral is the funeral of the Empress Dowager Liping.
How much happened after her death, and how did the situation and the world change?
She only knew about it in the Yongning Hou Mansion, including the Meng family, the Ning family, and Xie Huishi, so how much did she not know?
What has become of the Great Xuan Dynasty?
Sad, sad, and incomprehensible...... Zheng Heng's gaze changed several times, and finally calmed down.
No matter what has become of the Great Xuan Dynasty, she is now Zheng Heng, in the Yongning Hou Mansion in Hedong, in the remote Changjian Courtyard of the Hou Mansion......
Seeing her like this, Zhang's heart was sad, and his slightly cloudy eyes gradually became firm.
The Ning family is dead, but Sister Heng and Brother Shi are fine. Since she plans to leave the Hou Mansion Buddha Hall, she has to plan carefully.
She had to take the Hou Mansion back step by step, and she must not let those people have a chance again...... There is a chance to harm people again!
After thinking about it, she said, "Sister Heng, I will keep Meng Siniang by my side as a maid." As for Ji Yong's whereabouts, he can only find a way to come step by step. β
These words brought Zheng Heng's attention back to the present.
Meng Siniang, Meng Ruitu's granddaughter, is by her side nowββ she has a chance to know more about the Great Xuan Dynasty.
Cloud, what happened to Queen Qian?
Zheng Heng looked up at the Zhang family and said, "Grandmother, presumably the Xianzhang Courtyard will be very unpeaceful in the future." Siniang should stay in Nagamiin, so that she can reduce the trouble for her grandmother. β
After three years, Zhang's departure from the Buddhist hall and moving into Xianzhang Yuan must not be good news for some people. Xianzhang Yuan will not be peaceful, this can be imagined.
Zhang Shi thought for a moment before nodding: "Sister Heng is right, it's better to stay in Changjian Courtyard." Sister Heng can think of this, and grandmother is really comforted. β
Zheng Heng showed a shy expression, but his body stiffened.
If she couldn't even think of that, it would be a joke!
She thought of more than that. Like what...... The Xie clan who is now in charge of the Yongning Hou Mansion. - Well, it's Xie Huishi's daughter.
It's just that I don't know if Zhang thought of it?
She looked at Zhang's family, and still reminded her: "Grandmother, when I took Siniang back to Changjian Courtyard just now, Xie didn't stop it. It seems that there are other plans. β
The dispute between the Xie family and the Zhang family in the Hanging Flower Gate was for the strange maid Meng Siniang. But after the Zhang family left, the Xie family actually allowed Meng Siniang to follow the president to the hospital.
It doesn't make sense.
Unless, there are more important things in Xie's heart than Meng Siniang.
The more important thing will be the matter of Zhang's visit to Rongshoutang? Zheng Heng has reservations about this.
It is true that Xie Huishi is a treacherous villain, but he is a smart person, and the daughter taught by the Xie family should not be too stupid.
Now that she lives in the Yongning Hou Mansion, the Zhang family is the one who defends her, and she doesn't want anything to happen to the Zhang family.
Hearing her reminder, Zhang's eyes narrowed and laughed: "Sister Heng is really careful. Don't worry, grandmother will take care of it. β
Although he said this with a smile, Zhang's heart was very cautious.
...... Hsieh?
