Chapter Forty-Three: Proton Death
Mu Zhiyue felt that her hands were trembling uncontrollably, why didn't she think that today's national surname was the surname Zhou. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
This Zhou Heng, if she remembers correctly, is Zhou Junze, the seventh son of the emperor who was sent to Beiyan to be a proton in the seventh year of Longjia, no wonder she subconsciously felt that this person was dangerous, and now she finally understands.
Legend has it that the Seven Princes died violently in the Proton Mansion of Yan in the fourth year of entering the Northern Yan, and the peaceful relations between the Southern Jin and the Northern Yan were completely broken in the second year after Zhou Junze's death, and the two countries began a five-year war.
In the seventeenth year of Longjia, the army of the Southern Jin Dynasty defeated the Northern Yan in one fell swoop under the leadership of General Pingqiang, and captured the first general of the Northern Yan at that time to the camp of the Southern Jin Dynasty.
It is reported that Zhou Junze was cheated to death that year, and his real whereabouts became a mystery, no one knows what Zhou Junze has done in the past five years, and no one knows whether the war between the Southern Jin Dynasty and the Northern Yan has anything to do with him.
Then the emperor rewarded the three armies, but did not reward Zhou Junze, who is said to have made great achievements, until Mu Zhiyue was dying, this Zhou Junze was hidden in obscurity among the princes, and never heard of his deeds again.
And the reason why Mu Zhiyue is sure that this Zhou Heng is the pseudonymous Zhou Junze is because Zhou Junze's biological mother Lin Zhaoyi is the eldest daughter of Lin Yi, the supervisor of Qintian.
The special feature of the Qin Tianjian is that the officials of the prison are not allowed to change to other officials, and if there is a vacancy in the office, the prison will replace it step by step.
Therefore, the Lin family has been a member of the Qin Tianjian for generations, and it can be said that the people of the Lin family are prepared for the Qin Tianjian from top to bottom, regardless of whether they are male or female.
In the same way, if outsiders do not inherit it, it is difficult to enter the Qin Heavenly Prison only by relying on what they have learned in books.
And the Zhou Heng mentioned by his brother that day and what he talked about are not known by ordinary people, so Mu Zhiyue is sure that this Zhou Heng must be the seventh prince who died in Beiyan.
"Girl, girl", the hurried voice woke up Mu Zhiyue's thoughts, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Ling Yan's nervous face and Mu Zhiyan's worried look.
"Sixth sister, what's wrong with you?" , Mu Zhiyan's tone became nervous, just now the sixth sister was eating grapes but suddenly stood up, her face was pale, her whole body trembled, and she didn't respond after calling for a lot, which frightened her and Ling Yan.
"Second sister", Mu Zhiyue muttered, and her divine sense was finally completely pulled back.
Mu Zhiyue, who had returned to normal, smiled sadly at Mu Zhiyan, and made an excuse: "Second sister, don't worry, a grape was stuck in her throat just now, and it has been swallowed."
He looked down at the sap-stained skirt of the fallen grapes and said, "Allow me to go back and change my clothes and talk to the sisters again."
Mu Zhiyan asked worriedly: "Do you want me to accompany the sixth sister back?" ”
Changing clothes is just an excuse, what Mu Zhiyue wants to do most is to find a quiet place to sort out these things, so she politely declined, "This place is close to Fangxie Courtyard, just let Lingyan accompany me back." ”
Then he walked slowly under Mu Zhiyan's uneasy gaze, and barely said hello when he passed by the group of sisters who were still talking by the pond before leaving Ronghuaju.
Out of the Velvet Flower House, she subconsciously glanced in the direction of Yi Songyuan, and suddenly stumbled and almost fell, but fortunately, Ling Yanyan quickly helped her.
Under the pine tree in front of the pine garden, Zhou Heng stood there straight, and was also looking at Mu Zhiyue.
Although he is described as clear, he still can't hide his extravagance, and his eyes are as deep as a lake, as if he can see people's hearts at a glance.
Far away, he hugged his fist and saluted Mu Zhiyue, and had no intention of coming over, Mu Zhiyue was a little happy, she didn't know what attitude to see him now, so she hurriedly gave a salute and turned to leave.
Along the way, Mu Zhiyue kept thinking, whether her grandfather knew Zhou Heng's identity, whether his arrival was deliberate or accidental, and whether the so-called Mu family's rebellion had anything to do with him two years later, all of which were impacting her heart and making her unable to start.
Soon arrived at Fang Xie Courtyard, Mu Zhiyue asked Ling Yan to find clothes, and locked herself in the room to continue to sort out her thoughts.
Grandfather must know Zhou Heng's identity, otherwise how could his old man block arrows for an irrelevant person, and how can he wait for Zhou Heng's body to recover and bring it to everyone to know.
Grandfather was a servant of the Ministry before Zhishi, and he had sat in that seat for six years, so he must have seen the Seventh Prince, so it was not surprising that he could recognize him.
But Zhou Heng's behavior is very strange, why did he cheat to death, what was the purpose, why did he obediently follow his grandfather to Fengyang, and how did he return to the camp of the two armies later, why was the Mu family convicted of rebellion but only the sixth uncle was demoted and the uncle resigned?
This piece by box rolls the mystery bigger and bigger, and Mu Zhiyue can't grasp the clue.
When she wanted to help the Mu family avoid the disaster, Zhou Heng appeared, she couldn't help but associate him with the crime of rebellion, she didn't remember whether her grandfather saved Zhou Heng in her previous life.
It seems that if you want to sort out the true image of the Mu family's rebellion, you can start with Zhou Heng right now.
She thought of Xiuzhutang's hidden figure in the shadows that day, Zhou Heng was able to escape from Beiyan's layers of surveillance, there must be a secret chess, she just hopes now that the Mu family will not be involved in his plan, maybe this way the Mu family can still stand.
But thinking about it again, since my grandfather took the risk of bringing Zhou Heng back, the Mu family couldn't escape.
Ling Yan knocked on the door outside with the newly found clothes, Mu Zhiyue decided not to think about these for now, and walked one step at a time.
Let Lingyan come in to serve her to change her clothes, and then take her back to Ronghuaju, and only when she walked out of Fangxi Courtyard did she hear a slight noise from Ronghuaju.
Mu Zhiyue hurriedly quickened her pace, and when she walked to the door of Ronghuaju, she met Zhou Heng again, and he hadn't even gone back yet.
Zhou Heng raised his hand and said: "Sixth girl, let's meet again, I heard screams inside and wanted to come and see, but it's not good to go in, six girls should hurry up and see what happened inside, do you need me to call someone."
Mu Zhiyue naturally didn't dare to slack off after knowing his identity, besides, his attitude was humble and polite, and his words were also polite and courteous, and he didn't have the arrogance of being a prince at all.
Mu Zhiyue curtled her knees and said, "Thank you Gongzi Zhou for your concern, I'll go in and have a look", and then lowered her head and entered the Ronghua Residence.
After entering, I realized that it was the maid of the concubine Qin Mo brought by my aunt who fell into it when she was standing by the pond, but fortunately, the pond was not deep, and the water surface only reached the chest when she stood up, but it happened suddenly, and everyone didn't know so they were startled, and now people have pulled it up.
Mu Zhiyue turned around and planned to tell Ling Yan to go out and say something, but after thinking about it, this was not respectful enough, Zhou Heng was a prince anyway, so he simply went out to talk to him.
Zhou Heng was still waiting outside the door, standing with his back to the ear door of Ronghuaju, and when he heard the voice, he turned around, and his clothes swayed lightly with the movement of turning around, showing that he was even thinner.
"Let Zhou Gongzi worry, it's just that a maid fell into a waist-deep pond, it's no big deal", Mu Zhiyue explained cleanly and turned around to leave.
"Six girls", Zhou Heng stopped her with words, "You ......"
Mu Zhiyue raised her eyebrows suspiciously and motioned for him to continue, but Zhou Heng put down his raised hand and said, "It's okay, the six girls go slowly."
He actually wanted to ask Miss Mu Liu if he was prejudiced against him, why he had a sense of alienation when he saw him twice, but when he thought about it, he was already a disaster, so what was there to ask.
