Zha Bixing said: "I don't know very well what she experienced before, but I still know about the fire in Huangze Temple." Since she didn't die, she should have escaped from the fire. ”

I listened, frowning and looking at Zhao Shuyuan.

She didn't react to our conversation, just holding the warm teacup intently, her pale fingertips getting a little bloody.

Zha Bixing continued: "She wandered all the way to the capital, and I heard that when she went to the western suburbs, she was about to starve to death, but fortunately, that day, the protector of the country went to the temple to pray on the day of prayer, and went down the mountain to meet her, so he took her in. ”

“……”

"Although she did not die in the fire, she may have been stimulated by some irritation, delirious, sometimes mad talking, sometimes more sober. The Protector had been trying to find a way to heal her, and now, she was much better than before, and sometimes she could listen to people. ”

“……”

I listened, nodded, and said, "Then why would she-"

"Go to your place and cry, right?" said Zhabixing, taking a sip of tea, "Sometimes when she is sober, she remembers the past, she seems to remember what happened in that mansion, and she often goes secretly, and she can't get in the door, so she cries outside the wall." ”

“……”

"The protector had no choice but to take her, but he kept sending someone to follow, and when she was tired of crying, he took her back. ”

“……”

No wonder, Lao Zhu has never been able to find the location of the "ghost".

The people around the protector are naturally people with strong martial arts, where can an old man like Lao Zhu find them.

But he couldn't be at peace for so long.

Thinking like this, I couldn't help but shake my head and smile bitterly, and then looked at Zhao Shuyuan, she was still staring blankly at the cup in her hand, the tea in the cup reflected her pale and panicked appearance, looking very pitiful.

Thinking about it, she should have remembered Pei Yuanchen's death when she was sober.

That King Yun was burned alive in the Qingmei Courtyard.

However, I remembered what Yue Qingying told me before, Zhao Shuyuan once confided in her when she was sick and confused, her son was taken away by Empress Yin, so when Yue Qingying left Huangze Temple, she asked her to help find her son.

If what Zhao Shuyuan said was true, if Yue Qingying didn't hide it, then Pei Yuanchen, who died in the Qingmei Courtyard, should not be her biological son.

But I also understand, after all, after raising her for so many years, it is better to be born than to be biological, just like the Queen Mother, even if she has been hiding in the waterfront pagoda for most of her life, she is cold to Pei Yuanhao, but at such a crisis moment in the Juma River Valley, she still used her life to be the emperor's Amitabha Buddha and protect him.

The nature of motherhood is not something that can be lightly erased by the shackles of interests.

Thinking like this, I also had more intimacy with her, turned my head to look at Zhao Shuyuan, her cloudy eyes also flashed a little sober light, turned her head to look at me, and muttered: "Living Bodhisattva ......"

I hurriedly said, "Don't say that!"

She was stunned for a moment, then looked at me again.

I asked, "You must have had a hard time all the way here, have you eaten?"

Without waiting for her to answer, Zha Bixing on the side immediately said: "Needless to say, I almost gnawed my own horse!"

I was amused by her, Su Su stood behind me, and couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile, just at this time the post officer came down from above, saying that the room had been cleaned up, so I asked him to get something to eat, and he hurriedly agreed.

I turned around and looked at Zha Bixing: "I'm still wondering why I didn't see you when I left the capital, I really don't like to join in that fun." ”

"Hehe, the eldest lady who knows me is also. He shook his head and said: "Of course I want to make up for the excitement, but the business is also important, and when the eldest lady leaves Beijing, I naturally want to send her here." It's just that you are really going too fast, and we have traveled day and night to finally catch up here, and if it weren't for the rain, I'm afraid we would have chased you for a day. ”

I said, "Why didn't you talk about this matter before in the capital?"

This time, instead of answering me immediately, he looked up.

Wen Hu, with a few of his close men, is here to protect us.

Since he was selected by Pei Yuanhao, he was naturally on an errand in a place like the Praetorian Guard before, and he sued the emperor, and later walked in front of the emperor, so it was naturally impossible not to know his identity, so Zha Bixing also smiled calmly: "You guys go out, I have some secrets to tell the eldest lady." ”

Wen Hu's thick black eyebrows furrowed suddenly.

Zha Bixing smiled lazily: "Oh, I didn't even hide the fact that I sent people to you, isn't that enough?"

“……”

That being said, but he sent Zhao Shuyuan to me, and Wenhu was responsible for protecting me, so naturally this matter could not be hidden from his eyes, so he could only be open and honest, and what did it have to do with his confession.

However, after all, Emperor Shangao was far away, and Wen Hu couldn't say anything, so he could only wave his hand and go out with his people.

Zha Bixing smiled hesitantly, and then leaned in front of me: "Don't say it in the capital, of course, I don't want the emperor to interfere." ”

“……”

"This old man, his son died and his daughter died, who knows what happened in the middle, if the emperor really knows her whereabouts, what to do, and what will the people of the world think, as soon as these things are put on the table, it will be troublesome. ”

“……”

"It's better to let her stay so quietly, she won't cause trouble to others, and others won't trouble her. ”

“……”

That's right.

I looked at him with a smile: "Then, isn't it good to let her stay in Chongyun Pavilion? Why did you send it to me?"

"That's what the Protector means. ”

Zha Bixing pursed her mouth: "She said that she always stays in Chongyun Pavilion, and sooner or later she will reveal her whereabouts, besides, she is not dead, the eldest lady must be interested in some things about her, so she asked me to send her." ”

That's true.

I was indeed very curious about some of the mysteries about her, but now she was half-crazy, and if she wanted to ask, I was afraid that I couldn't ask anything.

Thinking like this, I sighed lightly again: "If only you had come earlier, even if it was half a day earlier." ”

Zha Bixing took a sip of tea, and then looked up at me: "The eldest lady means that the emperor is too great?"

"Hmm. ”

I nodded and looked at Zhao Shuyuan's eyes: "The two of them have also been separated in life and death for more than ten years." ”
