Chapter 128: The Sect Ruler
Her face was still unhealthily pale, but it was much better than the dull and lifeless look of the previous day.
After Qingmei served Aunt Song to rinse her mouth, and after she cleaned up and retreated, Mu Zi asked her, "Have you figured it out?" ”
Aunt Song stood up unhurriedly, her figure was thin, her clothes looked very wide on her body, and the emptiness made people feel a little sad. She walked in front of Mu Zi's eyes, looked at her fixedly for a moment, and suddenly bowed her head and bowed, her voice low and calm, "My life was saved by Madame." This gift, thank you for saving your life! ”
Her movement standard seems to have been measured with a ruler, even if she is half a dwarf, she is still neither humble nor arrogant, which shows that her etiquette and upbringing have been deeply rooted in her bones and blood for many years.
Mu Zi and Xue Jincheng glanced at each other, obviously seeing the appreciation in each other's eyes, Mu Zi raised her hand to help her up, "You are not in good health, you don't need to be polite!" It's also a coincidence to save you this time, you have a bit of luck, and I'm also selfish! ”
Aunt Song got up, smiled faintly at Mu Zixue Jincheng, and then generously invited the two of them to sit down.
Mu Zizheng was hesitating to ask her identity, but before she could speak, she took the initiative to say, "My surname is Zongzheng, and my single name is a light word." ”
Zong Zheng is light? Mu Zi felt that it was a bit coincidental, in her previous life, she was surnamed Zongzheng and her name was Mu Zi. In this life, the surname is Zi, and the word Zongzheng is missing.
When Xue Jincheng heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he opened his mouth to confirm, "But the head of the Zongzheng family, the city lord of Zongluo City?" ”
Aunt Song, no, now that Zongzheng is light, she nodded indifferently and gave an affirmative answer. Xue Jincheng and Mu Zi didn't know that this was the first time she had admitted her identity in front of outsiders.
Xue Jincheng suddenly realized that he seemed to understand something, and said with great emotion, "I see!" ”
Seeing Mu Zi looking at him with a puzzled face, he explained to Mu Zi, "Zongluo City is located in the eastern part of Southern Xinjiang, although it is called a city, it is actually half the size of the territory of Southern Xinjiang, it is an independent capital city, and the ownership and jurisdiction of Zongluo City are owned by the Zongzheng family. No one knows his name, nor does he know whether he is a man or a woman, because his correspondence will always have a feather attached to it, and I used to speculate that he may have a feather in his name, but now I know that the original meaning of feather is the word 'light'. ”
When Mu Zi heard this, he looked at Zong Zhengqing with a little more admiration in his eyes. Even if I hadn't heard of this woman's deeds in the past, it didn't affect my appreciation for her now. Just from Xue Jincheng's simple words, Mu Zi could imagine how difficult it was for her to support a family and a city as a woman and with such a sick body.
"Zongluo City is thousands of miles away from the capital, do you remember how you came to the capital?" Xue Jincheng asked.
Zong Zheng shook his head slightly, looked out the window, and recalled, "Over the years, I have worked hard for the development of my family, and my body has long been dilapidated. I only remember the last days, most of the time groggy and rarely awake. When I woke up, I was already in this room! ”
Xue Jincheng was not surprised when he heard this, as if he had already guessed that this would be the case, he stared at Zong Zhengqing's face and suddenly asked, "Do you have sisters who look similar?" ”
