Chapter 56 Chapter 44
Back then, Yiyang Geng's family was also considered a high-ranking family in Zhoudi, although it was not as good as the deep-rooted Wang Xie Menting, but it was also a high-luxury and high-ranking person. But more than ten years ago, because of a woman, the Yiyang Geng brothers competed. In a family banquet, more than 300 people in the whole clan drank poisoned wine because of this calamity, and all of them died violently overnight.
At that time, if it weren't for Empress Lou's hard work to find the Geng clan scattered outside, there would have been no Yiyang Geng clan in this world for a long time. But even if Empress Lou single-handedly supported the Geng clan, the Yiyang Geng clan could not escape the loss of talents and the end of increasing defeat after experiencing the tragedy of almost extinction.
In the past two days, Jiong Qi's attitude has changed a lot, always putting her first, and there is no previous resistance. Jiongqi's bitterness, Zhou Rushui also felt deeply, for a while, she didn't feel a little stunned, Sakura's lips moved, and she couldn't help but soften her voice and asked him: "Do you complain?"
Jiong Qiyi was stunned, seeing that her eyes were bright and clear, and her eyes were full of sincerity. In this way, he did not avoid it, frowned, and said in a decisive tone: "I am resentful." As he spoke, he looked at the convoy of Fang Li, who had already traveled far away, and said word by word, and said very clearly: "What I wish in my life is to use my own strength to re-shine the lintel!"
"With your own strength, do you want to re-shine the lintel?" Zhou Rushui's eyes stared at him for a moment, obviously an innocent sister-in-law who had not yet reached the end of her life, but at this moment, her eyes were so quiet that she seemed to be an old monk. She slowly and elegantly hung up the curtains, stared at him with her waist straight, suddenly changed her head, and said slowly: "You all look down on that Liu Fenghan, but I was impressed by him at the last moment." People in the world often can't swallow the evil breath in their chests, even if I always have revenge, grievances and complaints, even if the bones are broken, I will never want to suffer a loss. But yesterday, Liu Fenghan suffered a loss. At first glance, it's quite embarrassing, but when you think about it, it's not shameful. Isn't this the best way in the world? Turning a blind eye to the world, but also compliciating with it. The big husband can bend and stretch, if he is not a businessman, he is a hero. ”
The relationship between this world and people is like a boat on water, whether it is going down the river or going upstream, only by complementing each other and controlling it, can it go for a long time. Yesterday's Liu Fenghan was like this, seemingly reckless and casual, but there was a bit of iron, a little slippery, and he didn't lose his style in the advance and retreat. But if it's like Fang Li, it's a pity that it's a businessman......
Jiong Qi didn't expect that Zhou Rushui would have such a high opinion of Liu Fenghan, and he never imagined that this sister-in-law could understand such a deep truth and speak such a deep truth.
He had experienced the prosperity of his family, and his family was ruined after waking up from a dream. After countless midnight dreams, he can always recall the Golden Horse Yutang when he was a child, and he doesn't want to gnaw on the remaining names of the family until he grows old like most people. Even if it takes a lifetime of hard work, he wants to rebuild the former glory of the Geng family. The ill-fated fate only taught him two things, one is to endure, and the other is to wait. But I don't want to, Zhou Tianjiao, who has always been despised by her, also understands.
At this moment, Jiong Qi looked at Zhou Rushui fixedly, different from the dead eyes on weekdays, his eyes seemed to be surging with thousands of lights, it was a surging emotion that penetrated deep into the bone marrow, like a boya meeting a child, a mountain meeting flowing water. He didn't say half a word, but compared his right hand to his heart, and bowed to Zhou Rushui silently and solemnly, this is Zuo Wei's salute to the Lord, once upon a time, he only did it to the former prince Luo He.
Seeing his action, Zhou Rushui was stunned, slowly, her clear and quiet eyes revealed tenderness, in the autumn light, she smiled softly at him, and then put down the curtain.
Hualin Palace is located in Zhouzhi County, from the beginning of the third year to the beginning of the nineteenth year, tens of thousands of laborers were conscripted into Zhouzhi County, they opened up the lake area, Zhuzhou Island, repaired the embankment, and then built the palace, pavilion tree, palace wall, lasted 16 years, only to have the scale of today's Hualin Palace.
In the Hualin Palace, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the cliffs are flying and waterfalls, there are cold springs in summer, and there is no heat in the land. In the scorching summer season, the kings of Zhou often led tens of thousands of people such as their descendants to the palace, one to escape the heat, and the other to hunt in the Xuanyu enclosure, in order to achieve the purpose of training the army and fortifying the border.
Looking at the magnificent and majestic blue tile and white wall in front of her, the light in Shuying's eyes was very bright, she slowly lifted the curtain, and said happily to Zhou Rushui: "Female monarch, we have finally arrived." ”
Hearing this, Zhou Rushui perked up and raised his eyes.
By this time, the carriage had stopped. In the distance, the mountain peaks are shrouded in clouds and mist, and the Hualin Palace is like a fairyland surrounded by mountains.
Zhou Rushui stepped out of the carriage with the support of Shuying. The autumn breeze was blowing, and the warm sunlight was gently sprinkled on her delicate and immature face, she looked around, looked at the magnificent scene in front of her, and looked at the mermaids in the palace who knelt on both sides of the court, calmly adjusted her sleeves, and smiled slightly.
After a long journey, he finally arrived at the palace and could sleep peacefully, and Zhou Rushui was in a good mood. However, she had only walked a few steps, and in front of her, there was a sound of footsteps, accompanied by a rough and piercing cry: "Oh, Chitose, the old slave has finally waited for you!"
Zhou Rushui subconsciously rubbed his ears, raised his eyes, and saw that among the people of Gong'e Temple who were kneeling on the ground and saluting, an old woman got up and greeted her majestically.
Because of the old woman's irregularity, Su Ying frowned instantly. She was about to scold, but when she looked again, she saw the old woman's face clearly. Deng Shi was also dumbfounded, forcibly suppressed his anger, and whispered to Zhou Rushui: "Chitose, that old woman is Mama Yu in Xie Ji's palace." ”
"Oh, why did her people run to the palace?" Zhou Rushui raised his eyebrows, raised his eyes, and sure enough, he saw that the old woman was really familiar, and it was really the old man next to Xie Ji. Zhou Rushui is not stupid, even if she asks so, she is also clear in her heart, and she knows that Xie Ji has sent someone to spy on her.
In this way, she hooked her lips sarcastically, glared at Mama Yu with disgust, and snorted coldly, "Mother is bothered." Ben Li didn't bother to pay attention to her, and stepped into the palace gate with the fine sunlight.
None of the four mothers-in-law brought by Xie Glaze when she entered the palace was a fuel-efficient lamp, and this Yu Mama was born in a stove room, and her figure was much taller and more powerful than that of ordinary women, and she was fat and strong like a cow. She doesn't look good, but she's a fierce image full of flesh. In the back court, Mama Yu's tricky methods of rectifying her subordinates are not the first, but they can also be regarded as the second. In the past, Ren is concubine and palace maid chewed the root of Xie Ji's tongue, and she came forward to rectify the lesson. is used to seeing her fierce appearance, and it is no wonder that Shuying frowned when she saw her.
Now that Xie Ji has sent her, seeing the appearance of those people in Gong'e Temple shrinking their heads and shrinking their heads, it can be seen that they have all been rectified by her.
Zhou Rushui didn't even give a squint, but Mama Yu was still smiling. She squinted and stood in front of the palace gate, and when she saw that Zhou Rushui's master and servant were walking away, she raised her waist again, and shouted to the people of Gong'e Temple who were lying on the ground: "What are you doing stupidly kneeling? From now on, if you don't serve Chitose well, be careful of your skin!"
As she spoke, she hurriedly chased after Zhou Rushui, hunched her back and followed the inner room, her flesh twitched slightly, and she said in a voiceless voice: "Niangniang took pity on Chitose and sent an old slave to serve." Chitose has worked hard all the way, but do you need to soak in the cold spring first to relieve fatigue?"
Zhou Rushui rolled his eyes. Zhou Rushui turned his eyes and sneered coldly: "On this cold day, the body of this palace is not made of iron, if you like it, this palace will give you to stay in the cold spring tonight." ”
Facing Zhou Rushui's gaze, Mama Yu's heart was inexplicably tight. She only felt that Zhou Tianjiao was obviously a sister-in-law who was not in time, but at this moment she seemed to be an adult woman, with frosty eyes and coercive words, as if she was covered with ice and snow.
Mama Yu was muttering, and saw Zhou Rushui pulling her lips invisibly, and teased knowingly: "Niangniang? Which palace are you sent from? The monarch's harem is full, and there are a lot of mothers." ”
There is a needle in these words, and he doesn't take Xie Ji in his eyes.
Knowing that Zhou Tianjiao was deliberately making things difficult, Mama Yu looked at her with a blank eye, and a touch of coldness flashed in her cloudy swollen eyes, but she didn't dare to act as powerful as in the palace, so she still smiled, lowered her face, suppressed the gloom in her eyes, and said respectfully: "Chitose doesn't know, the old slave is a slave at Xie Ji of Guangyun Palace." Niangniang took pity on Chitose, so she sent an old slave to the palace to take full care of Chitose. ”
"Take care of yourself, you are old, ugly, and vulgar, it's good to take care of yourself, why bother to pollute the eyes of this palace?" Zhou Rushui smiled coldly, she was not blind, this dead slave just glared at her, she didn't see it!
When he landed, Zhou Rushui also lost his good temper, snorted coldly, and sneered disdainfully: "You can enter the palace without being summoned by the palace!
Zhou Rushui's words were not merciful at all, and he would never give Xie Ji any thin noodles. At the moment, Mama Yu also felt that the situation was not good, and she no longer dared to rely on the old and sell the old, so she knelt on the ground, smiled, and kowtowed a few times in a bitter and loyal servant manner: "Chitose forgiveness! The old slave is indeed old, so he was thinking of Niangniang's instructions and wanted to keep Chitose at all times, so he forgot the rules for a while." But the old slave's heart is good, and he does his best to do things. You don't know, these minions of the palace are used to being casual on weekdays, and they are all unregulated, if it weren't for the old slave coming in time, I don't know how they would have collided with you!"
