Chapter 125: The heart will not last long
After sending King Qing out of the house, Zhong An stepped forward from behind and stood side by side with Su Jin. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Su Jin looked sideways at Zhong An, his expression was slightly surprised, then he returned to normal and said with a smile, "Presumably all the conversations between Su Jin and King Qing, the prince has also heard it, right?" ā
Zhong An nodded, his expression calm.
Yes, Zhong An heard all the conversations between King Qing and Su Jin.
Before King Qing arrived at the Jin Mansion, Zhong An had already arrived first, but because of King Qing's arrival, he could only let Zhong An leave from the dark passage first, but he really didn't know that Zhong An just entered the dark pavilion, but he didn't really leave.
Zhong An looked at the purple brocade cloak on Su Jin's slender shoulders and his always slightly sickly pale face, and suddenly remembered something, and then turned around and smiled and proposed, "Miss Su, let's go in and talk, it's windy outside!" ā
On the one hand, she had been worried about Su Jin's body and hindered Zhong An's identity, and Bixi, who wanted to speak several times, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Jin smiled and nodded, raised his hand and said, "Lord Wang, please!" ā
The two entered the atrium living room.
Su Jin pointed to the charcoal brazier that was not quite in season, "Bixi, ask someone to remove the brazier, the temperature in this room is too high!" ā
"Huh?" Bixi was slightly stunned.
Then he thought of something, answered, and hurriedly went out to summon someone to remove the brazier, but then he heard Zhong An say, "Miss Bixi, don't withdraw, this king thinks that the temperature is just right, it's quite cold outside!" ā
Bi Xi froze, but he didn't know whether to withdraw or not to retreat for a while, but after thinking about it again, he didn't hesitate to follow Zhong An's meaning and really didn't retreat, and retreated directly.
Su Jin has a cold disease, her winter has never come earlier and later than ordinary people, although it is still autumn, but for Su Jin, it is already winter, she can't stand the wind and cold, since the first autumn frost fell in autumn a few days ago, all Su Jin's rooms in the Jin Mansion have begun to add braziers.
Bi Xi knew that the reason why Su Jin asked her to call someone to remove the brazier was of course not really saying that the temperature in the room was too high for her, but that such a temperature was really a bit high for the king with a normal physique.
Of course, it is obvious that the reason why the acting king let her not have to withdraw is not because the temperature is really just right, but out of consideration for Su Jin's body.
Seeing that Bi Xi retreated directly despite his orders, Su Jin shook his head helplessly, not knowing whether to cry or laugh.
"If the prince feels hot, he can ......"
Zhong An shook his head with a light smile and said, "This king is not hot, this temperature is just right!" ā
Su Jin smiled faintly, it was estimated that it would be useless to say more, so he simply gave up the meaning of entangling this topic again, and changed the topic, "Lord Rong, you should already be on the way back to Gyeonggi!" ā
Zhong An nodded, "Well, if nothing else, it should be the beginning of next month to arrive in Beijing." ā
"Lord Rong will return to Gyeonggi to report on his work, and he will return to Moguan in the early spring of next year, but in my estimation, this winter, King Qing, I'm afraid he is going to do it!"
"You mean?"
"Since Prince Rong is coming back to report on his work, then he is bound to bring some soldiers and horses back, and from King Qing's point of view, if Prince Rong has to choose a side between him and Emperor Chen, there is almost no doubt that Prince Rong will stand on his side! Then you see, Lord Wang, first of all, the Gyeonggi Patrol Battalion has 3,000 troops in his hands all the time, and secondly, he already holds half of the imperial army talisman in his hand, and Zhou Yun, the general of the imperial army, was promoted by him, even if Zhou Yun has an arrogant and uninhibited personality, but he will definitely not be an enemy of King Qing when he thinks about it, that is to say, half of the imperial army is already in his hands; If he wins over Prince Rong again, then he already has an absolute advantage in terms of troops! ā
"Then there is the court, the first thing in the court is the support of the prince, and then there are his recent frequent actions, up to now, almost one-third of the people in the court are his people, if you add some external thrust, you don't have to worry that King Qing will not do it immediately!"
"Thrust? What thrust? Zhong An was a little puzzled.
Su Jin smiled lightly, "Emperor Chen's eyes are not blind!" This is the thrust!! ā
"Are you saying that just like the rebellion of Wen Bohou and his wife, Emperor Chen may, will force King Qing to rebel?"
"If he can, of course Emperor Chen doesn't want to force him to rebel, but if it is really about to threaten his throne, then Emperor Chen will no longer care whether to pay the price or not, how much to pay, even if it is a repeat of the bloody tragedy of the year, as long as he can protect his throne, he can still do anything!"
Zhong An frowned suddenly, was silent for a moment, and said coldly, "Could it be that Miss Su is also ready to let this kind of thing happen again?!" ā
Hearing Zhong An's sudden look and tone, Su Jin naturally knew what Zhong An had misunderstood, and he was not in a hurry to argue, but looked at Zhong An and said with a light smile, "What does the prince think?" It's been so long, and the prince still doesn't understand what kind of person Su Jin is?! ā
Zhong An's expression froze for a moment, and then he realized that his questioning was indeed a bit of a villain's heart, and said with a slight apology, "I'm sorry, Miss Su, it's the heart of this king's villain!" ā
Su Jin shook his head with a light smile, "It's not the heart of the prince's villain, if you change your position, if the prince says such a thing, Su Jin will think the same thing, so Su Jin doesn't blame the prince!" ā
Zhong An smiled faintly, paused for a moment, and suddenly changed his words and asked, "Does Miss Su know a woman named Jinzhi?" ā
"Huh?" Su Jin was slightly stunned, then remembered something, shook his head with a light smile, and said, "I don't know, why did the prince suddenly ask about this person?" ā
Zhong An looked a little disappointed, smiled faintly, and said, "Oh, it's nothing, it's just that on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival before, this king happened to see a few lantern riddles inscribed by a talented girl in the place where he guessed the lantern riddles in the lamp market, and indirectly learned about a girl named Jinzhi, but then inquired in many ways, but there was no news, and the king suddenly remembered the girl's handwriting...... It is somewhat similar to Miss Su, so this king thinks that Miss Su may know her, so he has this question, if there is any abruptness, please forgive me. ā
"The prince mentioned it, Su Jin will definitely order someone to check it for the prince, but whether he can find it or not, Su Jin doesn't dare to guarantee it!" Su Jin smiled.
Zhong An smiled and bowed, "Then the king will thank you girl!" ā
Su Jin nodded with a smile, thought about it and said, "Su Jin heard yesterday that the princess fell down the stone steps, and then I learned that there was already joy, I don't know if it's true?" ā
Zhong An nodded, "Well, it's already more than two!" ā
"Mother and son are all right?"
"The doctor said that the fetal gas was slightly moved, but it was not serious, just raise it!" Zhong Yen smiled.
Su Jin smiled lightly, "Originally, I was going to go to the palace to see the princess today, but after thinking about it, I still didn't go, I think maybe the princess won't want to see me anymore!" ā
"Actually, she doesn't mind much!"
"I do have her trust, so don't say that Niangniang is just generous and no longer friends with me, that is, she hates me, and it is reasonable and natural to hate me!"
Zhong An frowned and said in a low voice, "Miss Su must be like this, just talk about herself, right?" ā
"It's not all about it, I just evaluate myself objectively, tell myself what kind of person I am, what I need to do and how to do it, what kind of result I want to get, etc., only in this way can I keep myself awake at all times, not trapped by myself or others!"
"Sometimes if a person is too sensible, it is not necessarily a good thing, especially for himself!"
Su Jin smiled lightly, "I know, but I know even more that I have no choice and no way out, not to mention, Lord Wang, aren't you also such a person!" ā
Zhong An smiled faintly, "I've tried to change some of them, but ...... Useless! I guess I was born like this, I can't change it! ā
Zhong An himself didn't notice that when he said this, his first person had changed from "this king" to "me".
"People are probably like this, sometimes they know what is best for themselves but they don't want to do it, they know what to do but they still don't care about it! Since you can't understand it, just follow your heart! ā
"Then, what is Miss Su's heart?" Zhong An asked.
Su Jin was slightly stunned and smiled faintly, "My heart, hehe..... My heart, I am a person who carries too many burdens, either die, if I am not dead, but if there is still a breath left, bring down Emperor Chen, wash the old case, this is my heart! ā
Zhong An's face sank slightly, and even the whole person fell silent.
Half-ringing, Su Jin smiled and said, "What about you, Lord Wang?" What is your heart? ā
Zhong An smiled faintly, "I once longed for a free and unrestrained life, but it was once, and now I am different from you but almost the same!" ā
"Does the prince feel that he has changed compared to his original self?"
Zhong An smiled lightly, "I don't know, it's probably changed!" If you want to adapt to it, how can it be completely unchanged? ā
Su Jin smiled faintly, "Yes, the reality is like this, no matter how unwilling you are, what can you do?!" ā
Zhong An shook the teacup in his hand, pondered for a moment, and suddenly said, "Miss Su, this king wants to ask you for something, can you?" ā
Su Jin smiled lightly, "If Su Jin can get it, the prince can mention it!" ā
"This king wants to borrow Miss Su's copy of the "Zhiwei Collection".
Su Jin's expression froze for a moment, then he retracted his expression, smiled lightly, and said, "If the prince doesn't dislike Su Jin's bad deeds, Su Jin can borrow it!" ā
Zhong An bowed, "Thank you!" ā
Su Jin called Bixi in and told her to go to the study to get the book, but then Zhong An's words really shocked Su Jin's heart.
"Miss Su, actually, that Jinzhi girl is you, right?"
Su Jin smiled lightly and nodded, which can be regarded as an acknowledgement.
Zhong An naturally smiled, but there seemed to be a little loneliness in the smile.
In fact, when he saw Su Jin's figure on the other side of the Mingqiao River that night, he should have thought that it was very likely that the Jinzhi girl was actually Su Jin, but because of the incomparably similar handwriting, he always had some unrealistic hopes, and he actually stupidly asked people to go to the haystack to find a needle for so many days.
Su Jin hesitated for a long time, but still asked, "Is it because of the prince, the master of "Zhiwei Collection"?" ā
Zhong An replied without hesitation, "Yes!" I can always see her in those! ā
"Didn't the prince think about it, completely forgot about her? After all, a person who no longer exists, the more he recalls, the more painful it is, not only hurting himself, but also the people around him, for example, the princess! ā
Zhong An smiled faintly, his expression sad, "Of course the king of Miss Su knows what she said, but this king ...... After Miss Su also has an unforgettable person, she may be able to understand! ā
Su Jin smiled lightly and tried her best to suppress the undulating waves and ripples in her heart, Zhong An's answer, she only felt sweet and astringent.
The sweet thing is that although Zhong An doesn't recognize her, she still has such an important weight and position in his heart, but it is astringent, because even though she no longer exists in name, Zhong An still reaches out to remember her and never forgets it.
After a while, Bi Xi took the "Zhiwei Collection" in the study and handed it to Zhong An.
Zhong An took the "Zhiwei Collection" handed over by Bixi and said a little stunned, "It's a pity that the real "Zhiwei Collection" can no longer be found in the world!" ā
Su Jin smiled and nodded, "Yes, it's a big pity that I haven't met him in my life!" ā
Zhong An will probably never know that the "Zhiwei Collection" he is holding in his hand at this moment is the last and most complete book in the world, the real "Zhiwei Collection".
"If you meet at that time, I think she will probably like you very much!"
"It's me then, not me now, right?" Su Jin said with a light smile.
Zhong An paused and did not answer.
Because that's the answer.
Xiao Mi and Xiao Zhiwei back then, it was absolutely impossible to like the current Su Jin!
This used to be the type of person he and Zhong An hated the most, but now, she has become the person she once hated the most, and even Zhong An has begun to slowly try to adapt and accept such a person.
The reality is so, and as a result, they have also changed.
"I think, Lord Wang, when you go back today, you can be ready to take over the Gyeonggi Patrol Battalion!"
Zhong An was shocked by Su Jin's abrupt words, "Miss Su just said, what?!" ā
Su Jin smiled lightly, "I said, after the prince goes back, he will already be ready to take over the jurisdiction of the Gyeonggi patrol battalion from King Qing!" ā
Zhong An didn't know why, "Why?" ā
"Because of Emperor Chen, he may have to take precautions against King Qing!" Su Jin smiled.
Zhong An frowned, "Could it be, seize power?" ā
Su Jin smiled and nodded, "Now Emperor Chen is definitely taking some of the power of King Qing, so where to start?" Is there anything more appropriate and effective than to take back the jurisdiction of the Gyeonggi Patrol Battalion first? ā
Zhong An thought about it and smiled faintly, the reason was already clear.
