"To the South?" Zhou Xiya was a little moved.

"Just go to the south to play, let's go to the Jiangnan water town, the north is rough beauty, the south is beautiful, while you are young, walk around." Li Mu continued to persuade.

"Okay, I'll discuss it with my father, if my father doesn't agree, I won't be able to travel far." Zhou Xiya agreed, and it was good to walk around while she hadn't gotten married yet.

"It's okay, it's still early anyway, I'll travel in a month, and the weather will be warm at that time, you can prepare first, if you can travel, send someone to notify me, I'll wait for you." Li Mu nodded.

Zhou Xiya smiled and nodded

That night, Zhou Xiya told her father about going out, Zhou Jianxiong thought for a while, "Yes, let's go, but you have to write to me often to report your safety, and you can't go for too long, you will come back in three months at most, and let your third brother follow you, and you will also take the guards around me, and you are not allowed to go to dangerous places, keep a distance from Li Mu." ”

When my daughter is older, it's not a matter of being at home, so let's go out and have fun.

"Thank you, Dad, but let the third brother follow me, forget it, isn't the third brother going to enter the Ministry of Officials to experience after the year? I don't know when I'll be back, don't delay the third brother's errand. "Zhou Xiya doesn't want to follow a group of people around her like a wolf, what's the point of that, Dad's guards can't refuse, but others don't have to follow anymore.

"It's a chaotic time for the officials, don't let him in first, let him follow you, or I won't worry." Zhou Jianxiong waved his hand and refused directly.

"The officials are in chaos? What happened? Zhou Xiwan asked curiously.

"It's not the crown prince and the third prince yet, the official department is still from the prince's side. It's okay to be caught by the third prince, this morning, he was deposed by His Majesty, and the new secretary has not yet been selected, and the ministry is in chaos, so let your third brother go later. Zhou Jianxiong didn't hide it, he didn't raise his daughter to be a young lady who can only chant poetry and not eat fireworks in the world, she is going to marry in the future, it is not a simple matter for a woman to teach her husband and children, and her daughter's husband will definitely enter the court as an official or a general in the future. Only by understanding the situation in the DPRK can you help your husband. Even if you can't help, it won't add to the chaos.

"The official secretary has been dismissed, it seems that this time it is the third prince who is profitable, the new candidate for the official secretary. His Majesty may have agreed to the recommendation of the Three Princes. It seems that the third prince is going to be proud again. After taking down the ministry, the right to speak in the court is even heavier. Zhou Xiya figured out the stakes and couldn't help but admire Zhou Xiwan a little. This desperately wants to marry the third prince, and it seems that he is very optimistic that the third prince can ascend to the throne.

"Yes, Your Majesty is old, the interests of the prince fighting, and the situation between the DPRK and China are unclear, so it's hard to say." Zhou Jianxiong turned the wrench in his hand. This is given to him by his daughter.,Said to be jadeite.,Now the capital is suddenly popular with men's thumb wrench.,People with status have one.,But it's not very customary to carry such a thing.,But when thinking about things.,Will unconsciously turn the wrench.,It's a little interesting.。

"Dad, why do you have to let the three princes succeed, in addition to the snobbery of the prince and the three princes, there is another neutral trend in the capital, Dad, in order to plan for the future, why not unite this part of the people and get the important positions in hand, whether it is the crown prince or the third prince ascending the throne in the future, even if you want something, we can also control the right to speak, and the current imperial power is not enough to be able to punish the nine clans at will." Zhou Xiya said what she thought. There are not many soldiers in the emperor's hands, which is also the reason for the frequent change of dynasty in the past two or three hundred years, the emperor's position is unstable, if it is urgent, someone will really raise the anti-flag.

"Hehe, you can think of this, it means that Dad didn't teach you in vain, but, in the past, far away at the border, if there is anything Dad gets the news, and then the arrangement will always be one step late, but now it's different, Dad has returned to the capital, and he must always make a good layout for the future, Dad never fights a battle that he is not sure of, the new official Shangshu Dad has already planned with people, the prince and the third prince will not succeed, when the ministry is stable, let your third brother go over, and then someone will mention him, it is better than him fooling around." Zhou Jianxiong smiled, although he didn't have high requirements for his daughter, but looking at his daughter's current appearance, he was very satisfied, worthy of being his Zhou Jianxiong's daughter and understanding the overall situation.

"Dad, you usually teach the third brother a lesson, you can see it at a critical time, you still protect the third brother, if you really want him to experience, it should be the most chaotic time to let him go, if the third brother knows that you are always protecting him like this, he must be very happy." Zhou Xiya winked playfully.

"Just the two of you are the youngest, and I am also the most worried about the two of you, your eldest brother and second brother can now be on their own, and there are only two of you left, don't tell him this, lest that stinky boy his tail." Zhou Jianxiong pretended not to care about taking a sip of tea.

"Okay, okay, I won't say it" Zhou Xiya covered her mouth and smiled.

"By the way, if you go to the south, you will definitely go to Yingtianfu, and then go to visit Marquis Xiao instead of your father, and I will write you a letter when the time comes, if you encounter any difficulties, you can go to him for help, he is the most snobbish in the south, and he can protect you one or two." Zhou Jianxiong changed the subject.

"Okay" Zhou Xiya was a little reluctant, she just rejected Xiao Jingqing, and went to the Xiao family's territory, in case Xiao Hou Ye said something, then everyone would not be embarrassed.

After chatting with her father for a while, Zhou Xiya returned to her courtyard.

Jinxiu saw that Miss was back, and hurriedly walked over and asked, "Miss, does the master agree with you to go to Jiangnan?" "Miss is going, she will definitely take her with her, she is so big that she doesn't know what the south is like.

"I won't take you with me, I'll pack up tomorrow, remember to bring less things, we have something to do when we go out, not for playing, big bags and small bags, no jokes, go and call Mama Zhou, I have something to order." Zhou Xiya tapped the door of Jinxiu's head, she was not excited, but these girls were happy.

"Miss won't leave me, I'll inform Mama Zhou" Jinxiu smiled and ran away.

Zhou Xiya smiled and shook her head, she spoiled the maids in the courtyard.

"Miss" Mama Zhou came in.

"What's going on there?"

As Miss expected, the Bai family did raise money to send it to the second miss. It is estimated that there is not much money in hand, and three large shops have been sold, all of which have been accepted by our people, the price is very low, there are not many shops in Bai's hands, and some are not good business, barely maintained, I heard that Bai's is sick, and today I invited a doctor to come and see, I asked the doctor. The doctor said that he was in a hurry. Mama Zhou reported.

"I can't accept that. really let me underestimate her, Mama Zhou, your nephew is good, and he knows a lot about the palace. Send him a message. Let him ...... like this," Zhou Xiya beckoned Mama Zhou to order.

Mama Zhou couldn't stop nodding. Her nephew was mixed up in the Third Prince's Mansion as a small servant, and during this time, he went to contact the second lady, but there were always inconvenient times. The maid who arranged to go in hasn't touched the second lady yet.

After Mama Zhou left, Zhou Xiya smiled, Zhou Xiwan, you have money in your hand, and I can't keep it.

Two days later, the little servant Zhou Xiaohu found an opportunity and mixed up with Zhou Xiwan's Piaolan Courtyard.

At this time, Zhou Xiwan was basking in the sun in the courtyard, although the princess no longer restricted her freedom, she also got the treatment she deserved, and there were people around her, but Zhou Xiwan's face was very bad, she already knew the queen's decree, she did not become the expected side concubine, but became a concubine, which made her how willing.

She can only endure this breath now, she will not give up, she has worked hard and calculated to enter the palace, she is unwilling to fail like this, this is not everything she wants.

Seeing that the little guy arranged by Zhou Xiya to come in, Zhou Xiwan frowned, waved her hand and let the maids around her push it down, now she has money in her hands, her mother gave her a lot of silver tickets, money can make ghosts grind, it is still easy to buy these maids.

"Why are you here, is it that your master has ordered you again?" Zhou Xiwan opened her mouth faintly, originally she wanted to report this little guy and put someone in the palace, what did Zhou Xiya want to do, this matter is bigger, it can be said that she is going to murder the prince, and then she thought about it, forget it, kill people, it is not easy for her to know a little more about Zhou Xiya.

"Hello to Aunt Zhou, Aunt Zhou is now the time to be favored, this Piaolan Courtyard is different, and the scenery has changed." Zhou Xiaohu answered the question.

"Don't go around in circles for me" Zhou Xiwan scolded, what she didn't like the most was that others called her aunt, as if she was reminding her of her aunt's identity all the time.

"Aunt Zhou has been in good health recently, but she is still so uncomfortable as if she was bitten by an ant, or dizzy or delirious?"

"What do you mean?" Zhou Xiwan stood up, in the few days when she was locked up by the palace, she did have this situation, she thought that the princess deliberately harmed her and drugged her food, so she would rather be hungry than eat, but then the situation became more and more serious, and her body seemed to be out of control, which made her very uncomfortable, but she told the prince, and the prince also looked for the imperial doctor, and did not find the poisoning, she was not good to blame the princess again, so she could only investigate slowly and take more precautions herself.

"Let's call you Second Miss, Second Miss, the slave thinks that you must have suspected that the princess did it, hehe, you really wronged the princess, and this thing was really not done by the princess." The little guy explained with a smile.

"What do you mean, it's not the princess, who is that, Zhou Xiya." Zhou Xiwan immediately thought of Zhou Xiya, except for her, no one would harm her.

"The eldest lady is only doing this to protect herself, after all, in the future, the second miss, you will soar into the sky and become a distinguished person, won't it be the eldest lady who will be unlucky at that time? So the eldest lady has to start first, you can rest assured, the eldest lady does not have the idea of poisoning you, but is to control you with drugs, if you do something that makes the eldest lady dissatisfied, the medicine is stopped, this uncomfortable taste, compared to needless to say, the second lady you also know, after all, you have experienced, you are just off the medicine for a few days, if the time is on, people are not determined to be what it is, this is not a slave alarmist, the second miss does not believe it but try, and, the eldest lady said, she gave you the medicine, In this Mandu City, you can find a doctor to investigate, even the imperial doctor is the same, you can't find out what the cause is, so there is no way to treat it, if the second lady is a smart person, she naturally knows what to do, the eldest lady said, as long as you don't provoke her, she won't do anything to you, this medicine will be supplied to you every day in the future, are you going to be very energetic and radiant after eating, that's the effect of medicine, it's just? Zhou Xiaohu wanted to speak and stopped.

"Just what?" Zhou Xiwan clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, her body trembled involuntarily, she didn't expect Zhou Xiya to be so vicious, she poisoned them silently, and she didn't notice it at all, and now she is still controlled, she knows the taste of taking the medicine, and she never wants to experience the taste of eating bones a second time.

"It's just that this kind of medicine is very laborious to make, the medicinal materials are cherished medicinal materials for hundreds of years, which does not hurt the body, but also can achieve the medicinal effect, if such a precious thing has been supplied to the second lady, the eldest lady thinks it is not cost-effective, so, the money to buy the medicine, you want the second lady to come out by yourself, the eldest lady said, you sisters, she doesn't take more medicine for you, just give a medicinal material money, and she doesn't want the processing fee."

Zhou Xiaohu said that the eldest lady and the eldest lady, and Zhou Xiwan, who was angry, trembled all over, and wanted to sew his mouth shut.

"How much?" I didn't expect her to be controlled by Zhou Xiya one day, but she had to be controlled, because she couldn't quit that kind of medicine, and now that she thinks about it, there should be a problem in the kitchen.

"Not much, not much, Mrs. Tingsu has sent you some silver, the eldest lady can't let you have no pocket money in your hand, you can just take out five thousand taels." Zhou Xiaohu said directly.

"Don't think about it, that's all my family, I won't give it." Zhou Xiwan is really going crazy, her mother gave her a total of more than 5,000 taels of silver, which is still made up by her mother, if it is given to Zhou Xiya, how will she buy the people in the palace in the future, and how to deal with the princess.

"This slave can't help it, since the second lady loves money like life, then you can guard your money, but when you get sick, the third prince sees your crazy appearance, I don't know if it will scare the third prince, well, the third prince is so wise and mighty, he loves the second miss so much, and he will definitely not mind the sick second miss." Zhou Xiaohu didn't seem to care at all, and turned around and walked out after speaking.

Zhou Xiaohu walked out step by step, counting in his heart...... Two...... Three...... Four......

"You Stand"

When Zhou Xiaohu counted to ten, Zhou Xiwan spoke

She surrendered, she had to take a portrait, Zhou Xiya grabbed her death hole, who the third prince was, she would have seen it clearly, if the third prince saw her ugly appearance, the third prince must have how far away she would hide, and he would never appear in front of her, so what is the value of all this she has worked so hard to calculate, how can she achieve it, so she can only suffer this loss.

"I'll buy it" Seeing that Zhou Xiaohu was silent, Zhou Xiwan shouted.

"Second Miss is really a smart person, this slave is not embarrassed now." Zhou Xiaohu smiled, and showed two small tiger teeth. (To be continued......)
