Chapter 459: A Little Confidence
Mrs. Tao said to the two maids beside her, "Help me to the living room." ”
She didn't want to wait a moment, as if she would miss something if she waited any longer.
Jiang Chuanxiong entered the weeping flower door and went to the living room habitually.
Every day when he came back from the office, he would first go to the living room to sit down and have a cup of tea, and then go back to the room to change clothes.
As soon as he entered the living room, he heard footsteps, and when he looked back, he saw that Mrs. Tao was supported by two maids and came to this side with great effort and anxiety.
"You go slowly. Jiang Chuanxiong hurriedly said, while walking out quickly to support her.
"Is there any news from Shuguo?" asked Old Madam Tao, looking at Jiang Chuanxiong eagerly with a pair of eyes.
Jiang Chuanxiong nodded and asked with a smile, "Guess which country won?"
Old Madam Tao looked at him fixedly for a while, and asked in a low voice, "Is it our country?"
"Well," Jiang Chuanxiong nodded, "It is said that seventy percent of Zhaoguo's score was answered by Ting'er. ”
Old Madam Tao's eyes suddenly lit up, and she said sincerely: "Great, great." ”
Hurry up and ask people to invite Zhen Huiyuan to come.
Jiang Chuanxiong helped her sit down in the back chair in the living room, and said with a relieved face: "I didn't expect Ting'er to have such a good performance in the first competition. ”
"It's really the blessing of the ancestors, I will go to the ancestral hall to give incense to the ancestors. Old Madam Tao clasped her palms together, because she was so happy, her hands trembled, and tears rolled in her eyes.
"Okay, Kid will go with you. Jiang Chuanxiong said, reaching out and pouring her a cup of tea.
Over there, Zhen Huiyuan, who got the news, immediately put down the needle and thread in her hand and hurried over, and as soon as she entered the door, she said, "Is it true?
"Really, the contestant's letter arrived at the palace this morning, and His Majesty immediately summoned all the ministers to meet after reading the letter. Jiang Chuanxiong smiled.
"That's great!" Zhen Huiyuan said incoherently as she sat down beside Jiang Chuanxiong.
"It is said that seventy percent of Zhaoguo's score in this big competition was won by Ting'er. Old Madam Tao said to her.
Zhen Huiyuan became even more excited when she heard this, and she held Jiang Chuanxiong's hand vigorously, unable to speak for a long time.
When he decided to let Jiang Yuetang dress as a man, she refused, always worried that Jiang Yuetang would not be able to play the role of a man, and at the same time pity that she could not live like other women in the future.
Her daughter is no worse than a man, and she finally dares to say this now, of course, she can only say it in her heart. However, even so, she had a sense of accomplishment after a long period of suffering and waiting for the flowers to finally blossom and bear fruit, and she was grateful for this feeling, and she felt beautiful and silent when she looked at everything around her, like a gift.
Then, the three of them went to the ancestral hall to worship their ancestors.
Old Madam Tao knelt reverently on the tuan mat for a long time despite the pain in her legs, if it weren't for Jiang Chuanxiong and Zhen Huiyuan who were worried that her legs would not be able to bear her and pulled her up, I am afraid she would have knelt for a long time.
Looking at Old Madam Tao's appearance of kneeling down with her palms folded and pouting, Jiang Chuanxiong and Zhen Huiyuan both had red eyes.
This old lady actually understands everything, and has been experiencing the same inner torment as them, she just didn't say it, today, when she learned that Jiang Yuetang had obtained such good results, she, like Zhen Huiyuan, finally let go of the big stone in her heart.
At dinner, Zhen Huiyuan was originally smiling, and she shed tears while eating, in order not to let Mrs. Tao and Jiang Chuanxiong find out, she was busy pretending to be eating and lowered her head, and quickly wiped away her tears with her hands with a slight side face.
But after a while, she couldn't hold back her tears.
Jiang Chuanxiong found out and reached out from under the table to hold one of her hands.
After returning to the room, Zhen Huiyuan lay in Jiang Chuanxiong's arms and cried.
After worrying about it for so many years, now she can finally let Jiang Yuetang be a "man" with confidence.
Jiang Chuanxiong was also very emotional, holding her with one hand and patting her back with the other.
Both were proud of Jiang Yuetang's performance.
Of course, both of them also felt that Xiao Diyuan lost a little strangely, but they didn't think deeply about it.
This night, the two slept peacefully.
At this time in the palace, Emperor Li Pei had not yet fallen asleep, and he was writing a letter.
This is a letter to Zhou Rong, who is on a mission in Shuguo, in which he asks Zhou Rong to secretly keep an eye on everything about Xiao Diyuan from now on, and says, "If his situation is not good, please inform me as soon as possible." ”
Li Pei could already imagine Xiao Hong's mood after learning that Shuguo had lost, and he was very worried that Xiao Diyuan would be treated harshly because of this. Now, although there is not enough evidence that Xiao Diyuan is his own brother, he has recognized this fact in his heart, and he will never ignore Xiao Diyuan's matter.
Four days and one night later, Zhou Rong received the letter, which was the day when the players from various countries returned to China.
After receiving the letter, he immediately found a secret place to look at it secretly, and after reading it, he burned it, and then summoned Wu Yichang and Zhang Yuanfeng to meet secretly in the evening of the same day, and told them what Li Pei meant.
"His Royal Highness Shu Guo has more than three months to go, and we can keep an eye on his situation through Ding Wu, Liao Yuanji, and Wei Bang for more than three months, so we have to work closely with the three of them, and we can't let them know our true intentions. ”
Wu Yichang and Zhang Yuanfeng nodded solemnly.
Zhou Rong heard it well, and at this time, he heard the sound of footsteps not far away, and immediately said to Wu Yichang and Zhang Yuanfeng: "Liao Yuanji is here, let's disperse quickly, and we will talk back if we have something to say." ”
The two nodded, and immediately left through the back door.
Liao Yuanji was sent by Xiao Diyuan to assist Zhou Rong and the three of them in investigating Ding An's life experience, and was designated to cooperate with Zhou Rong, so he basically stayed with Zhou Rong every day except for sleeping.
"Lord Zhou, this wild hawthorn is very ripe, and it tastes good, you can taste it. Liao Yuanji said as he put all the hawthorns in his pocket on the table.
"Good. Zhou Rong smiled and picked up one and tasted it, but he felt sweet and sour, and the fragrance was rich, and he couldn't help but praise: "The taste is really good." ”
Liao Yuanji said: "I see that the hawthorn tree on the mountain is full of growth, if you like it, I will go back and pick some more." ”
"Okay, I'll go with you then. Zhou Rong said with a smile, and said: "The results of the big competition are out, and this Zhaoguo has won." ”
Liao Yuanji was surprised.
He knew the lineup of Zhaoguo's players, and he never imagined that Jiang Yuetang would be able to defeat Xiao Diyuan.
Liao Yuanji came to his senses for a while, looked at Zhou Rong and said, "Congratulations." ”
