Chapter 13: The Little Prince Didn't Grow Up at All......

Empress Meng persuaded Gongsun Xi, but Gongsun Xi couldn't convince Rong Sleeping Crane.

Taking the opportunity of the guards to rest, the master and servant met in the palace of Mizhen County, at this time it was approaching the end of the year, and many homesick shops had been closed, but the palace of the county king was in full swing, and the craftsmen and stewards shuttled back and forth to prepare for the wedding in March of the following year.

Before, Rong Sleeping Crane said that the county king's mansion should be repaired according to the preferences of the future county princess, and this is exactly what is being done at this time. The garden, in particular, is almost copied from the garden of the Sheng Mansion. Although because it is limited to every inch of land in Chang'an, and the scale of the county king's mansion has its own regulations, it cannot be as big as the garden of the Sheng Mansion, but the places where Sheng Weiqiao went to the most in the Sheng Mansion Garden were all built according to the gourd painting scoop.

At this moment, the master and servant spoke in a place that looked like a Cuimo Water Pavilion that had been repaired: "Although the queen has good intentions, after all, she is limited to age and knowledge, and her consideration is still one-sided. If you were the little prince of the Xiao Wen clan in the past, even if you wanted to recognize His Majesty, how could you follow the path of Wangchun Palace? let alone hand you over to work under the nose of the Meng clan. Moreover, the matter of the little prince, King Gaomi has already settled with Zheng Guogong and will not mention it again. ”

Rong Sleeping Crane said lightly, "That little prince has never grown up at all...... This is because Zheng Guogong has a bad relationship with the queen and didn't tell the queen, so she has such a misunderstanding. So don't bother with it, you better come back immediately, it's almost the end of the year, and after my wedding in March next year, I will leave Chang'an and go to the army. ”

Gongsun Xi was silent for a while before he said, "Chief, can I wait for you to come back after your wedding?"

"Everyone in the palace can be contacted. Rong Sleepy Crane picked up the tea bowl and blew it, put it down, raised his head, and looked at him calmly, "I will also explain to you the matter of the so-called little prince that the queen guessed, and it will not be as troublesome as she thought...... Why do you still insist on staying in Wangchun Palace?"

"......" Gongsun Xi was silent again, and after a while, he still didn't speak, but Rong Sleeping Crane sighed, and said helplessly: "Forget it, you must stay there until after my wedding, then stay!"

He raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows, "There's nothing else, you go back on an errand...... Be careful!"

After Gongsun Xi left, Gongsun Yingdun came up, half curious and half puzzled: "Ah Xi has always loved to stick to you, before he was good at advocating, and he was temporarily sent away by you, he was anxious like something, why is he unwilling to leave Wangchun Palace at this time?"

"You go back and give another generous gift to the Shu family, and ask the Shu family to enter the palace and tell the concubines to help watch some Axi. Rong Mianhe didn't answer this question, but said, "If the Shu family asks, you will say that because the queen summons the obedient girl to Wangchun Palace to talk from time to time, I am not very relieved, so I want Ah Xi to be the eyes and ears over there." ”

Gongsun Yingdun bowed his head and responded, and when he went to do this, he said to Xu Lianshan in private: "Ah Xi shouldn't have a different heart, right?"

"The king of the county treats him like a younger brother, who else will treat him as well as the king of the county?" Xu Lianshan sneered and said, "He will betray the king of the county only if he has a sick brain, right?"

He also said, "You still don't know what the king of the county is? Other things can be said, but betrayal, who has the king of the county spared for so many years? If Ah Xi insists on staying in Wangchun Palace because he wants to vote for another master, it is strange if the king of the county does not kill him, and will he help him entrust the two ladies of the Shu family?"

Gongsun Yingdun was right to think about it, but he still felt very strange: "But what is he doing in Wangchun Palace?"

"What do you care about him?" Xu Lianshan was not very interested in Gongsun Xi's affairs, but reminded Gongsun Yingdun, "You should go and do what the county king wants you to do, after all, the county king's wedding is in March of the next year, and the county king's mansion is busy now, and then he may have to work day and night! The county king is entangled in all things at this time, you serve the county king, and other things can't help too much, so how can you not take the initiative to help keep an eye on the point?"

"I want to go to Chunbo Lake!" Gongsun Yingdun muttered unhappily, "But isn't the little uncle not letting me go?"

Xu Lianshan sneered: "Born in the blessing and don't know the blessing! The king of the county clearly remembers the kindness of the sea lord, and wants to keep you by his side to guide and promote, you don't want to think about it, before you, the one who got such treatment is the one who is happy, that is the master who grew up with the king of the county and helped each other block knives more than once! You still want to go to the water division of Chunbo Lake, and you don't want to think about what you can do in the water division with your little ability? Can you suppress that group of arrogant soldiers, or have you played too much with Chongxinbo?"

“…… I went to Shu's house. Gongsun Yingdun wanted to refute, but thinking about his so-called plan on Tortoiseshell Island, he thought he was in control, but who knew that it was a complete failure...... Suddenly stood up angrily, "You guys should also be leisurely, didn't Yiliu pass the word over last time, saying that it was the Zhao family or something, and he was very dissatisfied with the little uncle's family business?"

"Do you still need to mention this?" Xu Lianshan said slowly, "That is, for the sake of the great cause of the county king, I still have to ambush and hide at this time." Otherwise, Lao Tzu would have taken someone to touch the Zhao Mansion at night and put a fire, and then kiss the delicate beauties and little beauties of the Zhao family. ”

Gongsun Yingdun sneered: "The Zhao family is the little uncle's cousin, the big and small beauties you are talking about, are either the little uncle's relatives or the little uncle's cousins, even if the little uncle may not be treated to them, you said this unscrupulously, spread it, and said that you look down on the little uncle! So brainless, and you said that you don't need me to mention it?"

"You are so brainless, what is this telling me to say about you?!" At this moment, in the Zhao Mansion, the second lady Ji was also tearing down her daughter Zhao Tao's makeup, "The blind can see that Rong Qingchu is hanging you and using you, why are you so obsessed?!"

She took a deep breath, "You still want to help him plot against the county lord of Kangzhao!! do you know that Mizhen has been back for so long, and no matter how much your aunt flatters him, he is a 'princess', just because the princess promised to help him marry Kang Zhao, she immediately changed her mouth and shouted 'mother'!"

"His temper makes it clear that the one on the emperor's throne at this time does not love the country and loves the beauty!"

"You still dare to move Kang Zhao!"

"Do you believe that you helped Rong Qing calculate Kang Zhao on the front foot, and Mi Zhen on the back foot can kill you with his own hands?!"

"Why are you so confused?!"

Ji Shi said bitterly, seeing that his daughter was indifferent, he was really anxious to open her brain to wash it, and pour out all the ecstasy soup that Rong Qing had poured out, "It's usually a girl in our family, your aunt won't talk about it, it's Tao Ji and Tao Yuan, which one doesn't have a seven-trick exquisite heart!

"Isn't this also your heart?" Zhao Taoxiang, who had been silent, heard this, and suddenly said, "Don't you just want this? Otherwise, why are there still second cousins in the mansion now? The palace has never cared about the life or death of the second cousin for so many years, and the second cousin returned from Bishui County with a serious injury last year, and the aunt and uncle also ignored it, and even the eldest cousin and eldest cousin were indifferent, so it can be seen that they have completely given up on the second cousin. ”

"In that case, my family is against me being with my second cousin, but why do you want to keep him?"

She sneered slightly, "I'm thinking about it, I'm afraid it's because the second cousin still has use value?

Ji Shi looked at his daughter with some horror: "You...... What are you talking about?!"

"Grandmother wants to marry the third sister to Cousin Mizhen, but Cousin Mizhen likes the county lord of Kangzhao, and they are already engaged, and there will be a big wedding next year. Zhao Taoxiang said coldly, "Grandmother may have a way to stop this family business, but it is difficult not to be hated by Cousin Mizhen after stopping it, in that case, even if the county lord of Kangzhao can't marry Cousin Mizhen, Cousin will definitely not marry the third sister!"

There was a slight contempt in her eyes, "But if the person who calculated the marriage of Cousin Mizhen is the second cousin...... The anger of Cousin Mizhen and the Sheng family all went towards the second cousin! And the Zhao family, because of raising the second cousin for all these years, and because of me, can still take advantage of the situation to play an unwitting and pure victim, and will not be rejected and hated by Cousin Mizhen, what a good plan, isn't it?"

The girl sneered, "Mother, do you dare to say that there is no such idea at home now? So what are you going to do to persuade me to draw a line with my second cousin? If I really draw a line, what if the Zhao family can't pick it up in the future?"

"Smack!"

Ji Shi trembled, and for the first time in his life, he made a move on his daughter: "Bastard!! we parents are anxious about your future, you ...... You're here to doubt our intentions?!"

Zhao Taoxiang's tears flowed down, but he didn't care about the slap given by Ji, but knelt down and whimpered: "Mother! I know you really feel sorry for me! So please help my second cousin, okay?!" He has nothing left, and his injuries are not even healed at this time, if his grandmother takes it to bear the anger of his cousin Mizhen, what can he do except die?!"

"Your grandmother has never told me anything like this!! Ji Shi shouted at her with a blue face, "Not to mention that what you are saying now are all ideas instilled in you by Rong Qingyu, and they may not be true! Even if it is true, the Zhao family has fed him for so many years, and after he abandoned you, he was seriously injured, but he still took him back, extended his medical treatment for him, and arranged for him to be served carefully!"

"What is the Zhao family's sorry for him?!"

"But what is there about him that is worthy of you?!"

"I wish your grandmother had such a plan to calculate him, so that I could vent this evil breath in my heart!!"

Seeing her daughter in tears and kowtowing to herself, Ji Shi felt cold in her heart, she stood for a moment and laughed miserably: "Forget it, I have no way to teach my daughter, and there is nothing to say at this time...... I only want to ask you one thing: if your grandmother really calculated Rong Qingchu like this, and asked him about the crime afterwards, would you tell him the truth in order to avenge Rong Qingchu?!"

Zhao Taoxiang pleaded with tears in her eyes: "Mother, the twisted melon is not sweet, since Cousin Mizhen has taken a fancy to the county lord of Kangzhao, their marriage date has been set, why do you have to ......"

"......" Ji Shi wiped his face vigorously when he heard this, and didn't listen anymore, only called his henchman in-law in, "Send the young lady to Zhuangzi to recuperate, and say to the outside world that she is sick." ”

Ignoring the hoarse and struggling daughter behind him, Ji Shi went out and returned to his room, asked someone to fetch water and freshen up, cleaned up in the slightest, and couldn't see the gaffe at all, before going to see Mrs. Qin: "I don't know what kind of sin my daughter-in-law has done, the Communist Party is just such a girl, and she still wants to live and die to outsiders! Now that the New Year is approaching, I have no other way but to send her to Zhuangzi first, so as not to mess around and spread the news that should not be spread." ”

Old Madam Qin frowned, asked a few words about Zhao Tao's makeup, and her face was ugly: "This kid ...... Why are you so dead-eyed?"

However, the old lady didn't have much thought to spend on Zhao Taoxiang at this time, and seeing that the Ji family had already made a decision to send this daughter to Zhuangzi, she didn't say more, but said, "But what Taoxiang said also makes sense, and the matter of being drunk and living up to Taoxiang is not very secret in Chang'an City." We've been drunk in the house until now, and it's really suspicious...... In this way, I will let people see the property under my name, assign a few Zhuangzi to get drunk, and let him move out in two days. After all, his surname is Rong or not Zhao, and he can't divide the family property like the heirs of my Zhao family. I gave him a few Zhuangzi to live in, and as for the future, it was up to him to be his own. ”

If the Ji family had heard this before, they would only think that the old lady had tolerated Rong Qing's drunkenness to the limit, and issued an eviction order.

But after listening to Zhao Taoxiang's pleading, she couldn't help but think: "Could it be that Fei Niang plans to let Rong Qingdrunk leave the Zhao Mansion and attack the county lord of Kangzhao to clear up the relationship even more?"

This is very possible, because Rong Qing was drunk under the fence of the Zhao Mansion, and he was seriously injured.

In this case, Rong Qingdrunk can still pit Sheng Weiqiao, saying that the Zhao family doesn't know and doesn't help, who believes it?

Only what he did after leaving the Zhao Mansion did the Zhao family have any hope of pushing two, six or five.

"However, the county lord of Kangzhao was born rich, and she has a lot of relatives in Chang'an at this time, so her mother gave Rong Qing a few Zhuangzi, how can he get the county lord of Kangzhao?"

But since Old Madam Qin did this, it showed that she was sure of it...... Where is this certainty?

Ji's doubts are unknown to outsiders.

Because of Sheng Weiqiao's amazing dowry and the discussion caused by the million-dollar dowry of the Gaomi Palace, the news that Zhao Taojiao fell ill and went to Zhuangzi outside the city to recuperate in order not to pass the illness to his family at the end of the year has hardly attracted anyone's attention.

Rong Qing was drunk, although he was not noisy or noisy, and left the Zhao Mansion in a very low-key manner, but it was immediately spread all over the city, saying that this little prince was completely down, and it was difficult for his father's family to return, and even the foreign family could not stand at this time.

Even if Old Madam Qin allocated him some property from her private property, which was enough for him to have food and clothing without worry, this was just compared to ordinary people.

Compared with Gaomi Mansion and Zhao Mansion, Rong Qingzui's situation at this time is a miserable mess in the eyes of people up and down.
