Picking up a cup of good rain before the rain, he sipped his mouth with zero tears, and slurped, he really didn't taste anything famous, and he just looked at a few rotten leaves in the bowl. The eunuch who came to serve tea just now dared to get a sè from her, saying that a sip of this tea was worth a tael of silver. She was bored and calculated, a tael of silver was exchanged for a few hundred yuan, she rolled her eyes disdainfully, she could afford to drink this little money! Picking up the tea bowl, he poured a few more sips viciously, completely ignoring the three people who were reuniting in the corner of the house.

"You're just zero tears, aren't you?"

Suddenly someone called out to her, choking her on a sip of tea on his face, she looked up at him dumbfounded, and saw that his face was full of tea, and his front placket was half wet. It's over, although he is a prisoner, but he can afford to offend the emperor, and he must be a first-class court official. The prime minister can hold a boat in his belly, and a river can fit it, so it should be more than enough to endure her with a mouthful of water.

Although Chen Bingzhi felt a little wolf, his complexion did not change, he wiped his face with his sleeve and smiled softly, "The meeting gift that my daughter gave to my father is really extraordinary!" ”

Zero Tears couldn't help but sneer, his "father" was still ...... Still...... IT IS INTERESTING.

Mrs. Chen scolded him for being old and unserious, took a handkerchief out, and carefully wiped his face for him.

Zero tears looked at the side, and saw that their husband and wife were very affectionate, and four words suddenly appeared in her mind that made her feel very appropriate, that is, "raise the case and raise eyebrows". If she hadn't been abducted by traffickers when she was a child, her parents would have been as happy as they were! Thinking of this, there was a shallow wetness under the eyes.

"Zero tears, thank you for what you have done for our family", Chen Bingzhi took his wife's hand and bowed solemnly to her, "You are the great benefactor of my Chen family, please accept our husband and wife's worship." ”

"No, no", she hurriedly shook her hand and scratched her hair at a loss, "Actually, it was your wife who saved my life first, and now I have helped you again, let's clear the two." ”

Chen Bingzhi is both grateful and worried, as soon as she enters the palace gate, she will live a life like sailing on stormy waves, it is too cruel to pull an innocent girl into such a whirlpool, but to protect the Chen family, he can only be ruthless, "Zero tears, you are a good girl, no matter how you end in the future, you are the daughter of my Chen family." ”

Anyway the ending? How can this be said so heavily! She secretly took a deep breath, heavy burdens, they are all heavy burdens, it seems that she wants to keep her body until the day she goes home, it seems that it is not easy!

At this time, someone knocked on the door, and Yongzheng's close eunuch Su Peisheng entered the house with a smile on his face, "Lord Chen, the carriage is already waiting outside the gate of the palace." ”

When Wanyao heard this, she immediately threw herself into Zero Tears' arms, and cried, "Sister, Yao'er is so reluctant to let you go." ”

Zero Tears rarely reached out and gently wiped the corners of her eyes, "Silly sister, it's not like I won't see you for the rest of my life." ”

"Isn't it", Su Peisheng said with a smile, "If Miss Chen Er wants to be a sister, she can come and see it at any time." ”

Zero tears watched the family walk out of the door, and his feelings were inexplicably complicated, since he met them, unfortunate things happened one after another, he should be happy, he could finally part ways, but looking at their distant backs, he was reluctant, and there was no Wanyao girl to bother her and quarrel with her in the future, maybe she would not be used to it......

Suddenly, a slender white hand shook in front of her eyes, she came back to her senses, glared at him unceremoniously, it was really ghostly, and tilted her head and said, "Fourth elder brother, what are you doing?" ”

He approached with a pair of bright eyes, "What's wrong?" Not happy? Is it reluctant to give up your family? ”

She squeezed out a smile perfunctorily, "Thank you Fourth Elder Brother for your concern, this will be my home in the future, and Fourth Elder Brother will be my family, it's too late for me to be happy!" ”

She really didn't see the outside, Hongli's face suddenly turned pale, he also turned his back to his hand, took out the master's pie, shook his head, and said in a tone of admonition, "Huang Ama told me just now, let me take care of you more in the future." Since I have a duty to you, I have to remind you a few words. Although this Old Summer Palace is not the Forbidden City, the rules in the palace are the same, as far as you are reckless, I dare to pack a ticket, within three days, you have to report to the Zongren Mansion. ”

After hearing this, she wanted to laugh very much, and she mentioned Zongrenfu at every turn, did he think she was a three-year-old child? Zongrenfu is the big tiger he uses to scare children? For the sake of the strong dragon not suppressing the head snake, she gave him enough face, raised her eyebrows lightly, and deliberately showed a coquettish smile, "Fourth elder brother, I will thank you for taking care of me from now on." ”

Seeing her so obedient, there was a satisfied smile on the bottom of his eyes and eyebrows, and he was relieved, "It's natural." Okay, now I'll take you to meet my mother first. ”

"What?" She looked at him in surprise, with a puzzled expression, didn't she really want to be related to him, what did she do when she saw his mother?

Ignoring the look on her face, he walked confidently out the door, urging, "Keep up, don't be left halfway through." ”

She pouted reluctantly, what a nuisance...... After seeing his father, he wants to see his mother again, does he have to visit his seven aunts and eight aunts one by one before she can go back to rest? She followed her slowly, absent-mindedly along the way, and she didn't even have a good mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Old Summer Palace.

The residence of the emperor's concubine, located on the east road of Qingyan in Kyushu, is a three-entry courtyard group, called "Heaven and Earth One Spring". As soon as she entered the palace gate, Zero Tears noticed a very unusual thing, only to see in the corridor, behind the trees, next to the window, there were countless pairs of eyes, staring at her openly or secretly, she knew that she had always had a high rate of turning back when she walked on the road, but such a battle still made her very uncomfortable.

"The fourth elder brother is here", a palace maid in her thirties greeted him and gave him a deep blessing.

Hongli saw her and smiled slightly, "Aunt Qiu, is my mother here?" ”

"Of course I'm here, I've been waiting for the fourth elder brother", the words were to say to him, but his eyes were glancing at Zero Tears, and he said with a smile on his face, "This is the Zero Tears girl!" Please come in, Niang Niang has prepared lunch and is waiting for you. ”

"Oh", hearing the words with zero tears, his eyes suddenly lit up, he was not hungry after running around all morning, so he unceremoniously raised his feet and walked straight inside. Hongli looked at her unruly appearance, shook his head helplessly, and quickly followed.

Hearing the movement outside the door, a little palace maid had already raised the curtain of the door and waited for them respectfully. Zero tears walked to the door and looked, this palace maid was immature, obviously still an immature child, but she was already a slave and a maid for the errand, I couldn't help but think of my childhood days, and she was not the same! Just as she was in a trance, a woman in a long skirt with blue and silver flashing blessing characters came over, and Hongli immediately saluted, "My son asks for peace to my mother." ”

She...... Is it Concubine Xi? Zero Tears looked at her a little unexpectedly, shouldn't the favorite concubine have a peerless appearance with a glamorous sixth palace? Why is she a mediocre face, even if her temperament is noble and elegant, but she is too far from her imagination. She smiled politely and said, "Hello, Concubine Xi", hesitating whether to shake hands or bow, or curtsy?

Fortunately, Concubine Xi didn't expect to receive her courtesy, and stepped forward to hold her hand very affectionately, and there was a little tear flashing in her eyes, "Let the palace take a look", not only to see but also to get started, after stroking her face and touching her body, so that she was in a cold sweat frequently, did she encounter unspoken rules on the first day of entering the palace!

"Why are you so skinny? Along the way, I must have suffered a lot from Beijing, right? Concubine Xi's well-cultivated brows furrowed slightly, full of deep pity, "It's okay, when you get here, you will come to your own home, from tomorrow onwards, I will let the small kitchen stew supplements for you every day, and I will raise you to be fat and fat." ”

When she heard the word "tonic" with zero tears, she couldn't help but lick her lips, completely forgetting the embarrassment just now, and intuitively felt that this Concubine Xi was the first of all the concubines, and her shot was really atmospheric.

Hongli saw her almost drooling expression, and helplessly lowered his head and stroked his forehead, the Chen family is a famous scholarly family, how could he raise such a wonderful daughter. What's even more strange is that there are still people who will take a fancy to her! Fu Heng, you can't do it when you're dizzy!

At this time, a belly scream sounded very inopportunely, and Zero Tears' face did not change, and he said confidently, "Isn't it already ready to eat, let's talk while eating if you have anything to say." ”

As soon as these words came out, Hongli couldn't wait to sew a needle in her mouth, and a three-year-old child couldn't afford to say such a shameful thing.

Concubine Xi covered her mouth and smiled, "Yes, it is a blessing to be able to eat, and it is a blessing to be able to eat", and took her hand into the flower hall.

A pair of pineapple tables of the Eight Immortals were placed in the center, and the palace maids brought the same dishes, and the various soups and dishes were set up in a moment. Seeing this, Zero Tears smiled, grabbed the chopsticks and sat down first, pulled a piece of the wings of the hibiscus chicken, and ate it with relish. Looking up while eating, I saw that the two of them were still standing aside, and said vaguely in their mouths, "Eat quickly, it's not delicious when it's cold", eating the food while it's hot is the sweetest, and the children don't need her to say more about the truth.

Hongli rubbed his temples with a headache, and he had to find a teacher to teach Mama quickly.

Concubine Xi sat next to her, and while serving vegetables for her, she smiled dotingly, "It turns out that the zero tear appetite is so good, and I will come to Eniang's place to eat every day in the future, okay?" ”

"Huh? E-niang? She chewed on her mouthful of food, swallowed, and looked up at her strangely.

"E-niang means ......", Hongli had a bad premonition, and just wanted to gag her mouth before she could speak, but she didn't expect a certain woman to agree first, "Okay, Niangniang's thing is delicious, then I'm welcome." ”

Concubine Xi was overjoyed and hugged her, "It's so decided, the palace will talk to the emperor in a while." ”

Zero tears obediently let her hold her, while she didn't see it, she made a grimace towards Hongli, and his mother will be her backer in the future, see how he bullies her!

Hongli's eyes widened in surprise, E-Niang actually had the heart to recognize her as her daughter! Wouldn't she be her own sister? He wanted to cry and laugh a few times without tears, he knew that he shouldn't provoke her, and now he would be entangled for the rest of his life.

After lunch, Concubine Xi sat on the couch under the window with zero tears and gossiped. The woman's ladder talk, Hongli couldn't interject, so he had to stand by the window and look at the scenery boringly. Concubine Xi's personal palace maid Qiu Nong brought over the freshly brewed Pu'er, and took a sip without tears, she really couldn't get used to drinking these strong teas. Fortunately, the palace maid in the back took a few more plates of delicate snacks, the fragrant and soft Jiangnan snacks were very suitable for her appetite, and she obviously ate a stomach, but she still couldn't help but twist a piece of mouth.

Concubine Xi leaned lazily on the pillow, smiling and looking at Zero Tears, such an unrestrained and freewheeling temperament is indeed very similar to Chen's, it seems that Chen's treatment of her over the years should be good, not only pampered, but also spoiled a little unseemly. This is very good, at least it means that the child has been doing well over the years.

Seeing that she had been staring at herself, Zero Tears couldn't help grinning, picked up the plate of snacks, and sat down beside her, saying while eating, "I was worried before I came, people in the palace are not easy to get along with, I didn't expect Concubine Xi to treat me so well, even closer than my own mother." ”

"Silly child, I'm a ......", Concubine Xi wanted to speak and stopped, just stroked the bangs on her forehead, and said softly, "I only have one child, the fourth elder brother, and I have always hoped to have a daughter. ”

Zero Tears also feels that the fate between people is quite delicate, and there is no blood relationship, but the Concubine Xi in front of her is much more intimate than Mrs. Chen, she has long forgotten the appearance of her biological mother, and suddenly feels that her mother should be like Concubine Xi, gentle and kind, and think about everything for her...... She leaned her head lightly into Concubine Xi's arms and took a deep breath, just wanting to smell her mother's scent.

Concubine Xi was stunned, even Hongli had never been so intimate with herself when she was a child, and her soft hand couldn't help caressing her forehead, hugging her heartily, for fear that she would disappear from her arms again.

Hongli watched from the side, his eyelashes fluttered a few times in surprise, and there seemed to be a hint of jealousy in his eyes. If you don't know the inside story, you will definitely think that they are their biological mother and daughter when they see this scene. Concubine Xi has been strict with him since he was a child, he has always thought that Eniang should be strong and competitive, so he must always strive for the first place in everything, so that he has been tired and tired all these years, and finally won the praise of Huang Ama, but she still has no smile on her face, how can she ever treat herself as gently as she treats zero tears! He really can't see through it, what is so good about this Chen Lingxian that makes Eniang and Fu Heng like it so much?

"E-niang, it's almost time for Erchen, Su Peisheng should have cleaned up her residence over there, Erchen will take her over first, and come back tomorrow to say goodbye", Hongli walked over unceremoniously, almost pulling her off the couch.

Concubine Xi nodded slowly and said, "Go ahead, if something is missing, send someone to tell me, and I will let the servants prepare and send it." ”

"Okay", Zero Tears just wanted to speak, packing and taking away the uneaten snacks on the plate, but before he could open his mouth, Hongli said "Erchen retires", pulled her sleeve and dragged it out.
