Chapter 108: Two Months Later
That night, Zhou Xiwan's child fell
The three princes were furious, and everyone in the palace did not dare to speak out
The next day, Dugu Jin was called over by the queen.
"I've seen the queen's mother" Dugu Jin saluted, and the prince and his wife in the palace, and the three princes and his wife were all there.
"Kneel," the queen scolded.
Dugu Jin knelt down in response
"Jin'er, this palace has always thought that you are mature and sensible, but I didn't expect you to be so lawless, what do you want to do, is there still a king law in your eyes." The queen slapped the table hard.
"What my aunt wants to say is whether there is a royal in my eyes," Dugu Jin smiled coldly.
"Bastard, do you know who you're talking to!" Before the queen could speak, the prince stood up and scolded Dugu Jin and gave him a look, at this time he lowered his head and admitted his mistake, and the matter passed.
Dugu Jin turned his head directly, he didn't regret what he did.
"Queen Mother, look at him, he is so unruly that he will be lawless." The beards of the three princes are about to be cocked.
"You... You kid, I've spoiled you. The queen pointed angrily at Dugu Jin.
"Please let the queen mother dissipate her anger, Dugu Jin is not doing it right, but it is all a family, he always has his reasons for doing this, let's ask him why he did it, although Dugu Jin has a strong temper, but if no one provokes him, he will not do such a thing." The crown prince hurriedly appeased the queen and helped to say good things.
"What does the prince mean by this, he hit my mansion with him, frightened my concubines, and made my children gone. Or mine is wrong. The third prince glared at the crown prince.
"Who knows if it's your fault, but before you pronounce a sentence, don't you ask a person why?" The crown prince is naturally not afraid of the three princes.
"Okay, shut up, isn't it messy enough?" The queen scolded.
"Say, why did you lead someone to break into King Rui's mansion and injure his concubine?" The queen asked Dugu Jin.
Dugu Jin knelt on the ground and didn't answer anything.
"Speak," the queen slapped the table.
"His concubine ruined my marriage, I can't bear this breath, so naturally I want to settle accounts with him." Dugu Jin looked up at the queen.
"Ruined your marriage, she is a little concubine. How could it ruin your marriage. Also, which girl are you going to marry, I haven't seen her in this palace for so long. What the hell is going on with your marriage? It's mysterious. What's so unseemly. The queen frowned, what a mess.
"What I want to marry is Zhou Jianxiong's daughter, Zhou Xiya. Because she had amnesia, I hid her at home, thinking about waiting for her to become a relative, and then taking her back to Zhou's house, but Zhou Xiwan revealed it, and my marriage couldn't be done. ”
"Nonsense, you are cheating on marriage, what are you doing here, discuss such a big matter with the palace, Zhou Jianxiong can you deceive at will?" The queen walked up to Dugu Jin angrily and knocked Dugu Jin's head.
"That is, this matter was originally your own fault, what is it called ruining your marriage, you are cheating on your marriage, you did it wrong, and you also put the responsibility on Zhou Xiwan, my child is gone, Dugu Jin's account let's settle it." The third prince saw that the queen focused on Dugu Jin's marriage, and quickly interjected to turn the topic back.
"If the child is gone, it's gone, and Bengong doesn't like that woman, and Bengong won't admit the child she gave birth to, so let's just treat it as if it didn't happen." The queen raised her hand to stop the three princes.
"The Queen Mother... You can't be so partial to Dugu Jin, I am your own son. The third prince looked at the queen dissatisfied.
"Okay, you are cousins, for the sake of a woman, it's not worth it, this matter is settled, no one is allowed to care about it anymore, Jin'er, you owe your cousin a favor, after all, it doesn't have to be his child, this palace stopped you today, but you have to remember, you still owe your cousin, now talk about the relationship with the Zhou family, Jin'er, you get up." The queen glared at the third prince.
This fool, she didn't do this for the sake of the third child, the child is gone, what else can I do if I pursue it, the child can't come back, but it's different when it comes to the Zhou family, if Dugu Jin marries Zhou Xiya and then stands on the third side, then the third child will have a greater chance in the future.
The third prince had no choice but to shut up, he got a hint from the queen mother, and knew that the queen mother was for his good, so he had to stop pursuing it, but he would not let go of this matter.
"What is Zhou Jianxiong's attitude towards this matter?" The queen asked.
He didn't stop or agree, he just said that he would wait for Xiya to recover his memory. Dugu Jin replied.
"It's good that there is no refusal, it means that there is still room for things to turn around, your wedding date is set, how can you say that it will be canceled, so where to put the face of the Dugu family, this matter is handed over to the palace, the palace will go and tell Your Majesty, let Your Majesty make a decree, and your marriage will be held on a daily basis." The queen spoke.
"Auntie, thank you for your kindness, forget about this matter, I have already hurt Zhou Xiya once, I don't want to lie to her a second time, I want to wait for her to recover her memory, and then pursue her, I don't believe that I Dugu Jin can only marry the woman I like by deception, Zhou Xiya I am bound to win, but I don't want to use conspiracy." Dugu Jin faced the queen and said what was in her heart.
Although the queen's words made him very moved, but after thinking about it, forget it, the feelings that come from deception will not last long.
"You really don't want to?" The queen looked at this nephew puzzled, didn't he look imperative, why did he not agree to take a shortcut now.
"Aunt Xie's kindness, this matter is over." Dugu Jin knelt down and pleaded guilty.
"Okay" hesitated for a moment before the queen nodded, in the end it was her own nephew, and she didn't want to force him.
"Okay, let's all step down, the third child stays." The queen waved her hand a little tiredly, she didn't understand the young people now.
"Queen Mother, why are you stopping me, he killed my child, is your nephew more delicate than your grandson?" When everyone went out, the third prince couldn't help but go crazy.
"Who are you talking to, what is your attitude?" The queen scolded.
The "Queen Mother" looked at the queen unconvinced.
"You child, the queen mother has not been on your side for a long time. Let's not talk about whether the palace likes Zhou Xiwan or not, let's talk about Dugu Jin, he is now in charge of the palace guards, and he is the most important line of defense in the palace. Even faster. If you don't prepare, what chance do you have, and there is your big brother above. The queen looked at the three princes with hatred.
"Is my father's condition really that serious?" The third prince couldn't believe it, his father looked fine when he went to court.
"How can Hongu talk nonsense about such a thing. So what are you going to do. It's time to step up. Otherwise, there will be no chance, if it really comes to that point of last resort, as long as Dugu Jin is willing to help you control the palace. You still have a chance to flop, and the queen mother will also stand up to help you control the situation when the time comes, and you are also a sister-in-law. The queen sighed.
The third prince of the "Queen Mother" looked at the queen gratefully.
"Needless to say, I was looking forward to you going to Zhou Jianxiong's concubine, so that your chances of winning are also greater, and you can sit firmly in this country, but you just married a concubine, if Dugu Jin can marry Zhou Xiya, it would be good, but it still ruined your concubine's room, this palace really doubts whether she is your nemesis, since she appeared, everything is not going well for you, and now you can't even keep a child." The queen will not be polite to those who are dissatisfied with her, and she will stumble openly.
"The queen mother, they are all sons, aren't they," the third prince apologized.
"Okay, this is already the case, and the queen mother has nothing to do, hurry up and find a way to pull your eldest brother off the horse, so that you can have a chance, you have been operating this thing for so many years, and the queen mother can wait for you to accumulate a lot." The queen patted the third prince on the shoulder.
"Don't worry, the queen mother, my son will not let you down." The third prince looked excited.
"The queen mother believes in you, you are the most outstanding of your majesty's sons, but the queen mother only makes one request to you, no matter what the final outcome is, you can't hurt your eldest brother, you succeed, just confine your eldest brother's family, you must not hurt him, he just doesn't please me anymore, and he was born to me." The Empress warned.
"Yes, the son will definitely treat the eldest brother well" The third prince promised, but when he lowered his head, he covered the thoughts in his eyes, how could he let the prince stay and wait for him to rebel? It's too easy for a man to die of a violent illness, and the royal family has no brotherly affection.
Two months later
It had been raining heavily in the capital for three days
"Miss, close the window, the rain outside is getting heavier and heavier, and it's all splashing into the house." Mama Zhou walked in with pastries to remind.
"Yes, miss, I don't know who pierced the hole this day, this heavy rain, looking weird, I don't know how many people are going to suffer." Jinxiu stood behind Zhou Xiya.
"Yes, I heard that there is a disaster outside, many rivers have burst their banks, the people are homeless, many refugees have come to the capital to seek a glimmer of life, the lord has instructed the money housekeeper to set up a porridge shed outside the city to relieve the victims, but this is also a drop in the bucket, water and fire are ruthless, natural disasters and man-made disasters" Zhou Mama sighed, the people's life is not easy, and I don't know how many people will sell their sons and daughters.
When the time comes, pick some clever people to come to the house to serve people, so that they can also have a way to live, it is better than not knowing where to go.
Zhou Xiya stretched out her hand to feel the moisture brought by the heavy rain, and looked at the dark clouds outside, and the rumbling lightning crossed the sky, instantly illuminating the sky.
Her eyes narrowed slightly, and she couldn't help but cover her eyes with her hands, and when she opened her eyes again, Zhou Xiya saw the hazy light in front of her, and it was no longer as dark as before.
"Jinxiu, I've regained my sight." Zhou Xiya suddenly spoke.
"What?" Jinxiu didn't react for a moment, and paused for a moment, "Miss... Miss, can you see it......" Jinxiu shook her hand in front of Zhou Xiya's eyes.
"Miss, you can really see it" Mama Zhou also walked over excitedly.
"I can see people, it's still very vague, but I can see some." Zhou Xiya nodded.
"It's wonderful, miss, it's really good, you've finally regained your sight." Jinxiu couldn't help crying, Miss has suffered too much these days.
Fortunately, now that I have regained my eyesight, I also remembered some people and things two days ago, and I no longer knew some of the past just by asking them.
"Jinxiu, go and tell the master, that the young lady can see it." Mama Zhou helped Zhou Xiya sit down and hurriedly ordered Jinxiu.
"Let's go back, it's raining heavily outside, don't let Dad come over." Zhou Xiya called Jinxiu.
"How is the Bai Clan?" Zhou Xiya opened her mouth to ask, she had already remembered most of her memories, and knew that it was the Bai family mother and daughter who harmed her.
"She was still locked up by the master, only one meal a day, she was already thin, and her spirit was a little abnormal, she often shouted nonsense, for fear of disturbing the lord and the young lady, so she was locked up in the most remote courtyard in the house, isolating her from all contact with the outside." Mama Zhou said that this matter was personally explained to her by the master, and she would naturally do it well, as for why the Bai family was crazy, it was not the master's explanation, and it was not easy to be crazy alone.
"Has Zhou Xiwan contacted her?"
"Yes, the second miss often writes back, but they are intercepted by the slave maid, the young lady was sick at that time, and the slave and maid dealt with it privately, and replied to the second miss in Bai's tone, dragging the second miss, and the people sent by the second miss did not see the Bai family, thinking that the second miss suspected that something had happened to the Bai family, and there was no clear news." Mama Zhou nodded.
"Well, it's all cheap for her, fortunately, my father didn't kill her at once, otherwise how could I get this breath, the Bai family doesn't have to worry about it now, where is Zhou Xiwan?" Zhou Xiya sneered, the Bai family's sin was not enough, how could she let the Bai family die so easily.
"Zhou Xiwan's child lost his ...... two months ago"-
Inside the Rui Palace
"Where's the prince? Can you go home? Seeing her grandmother walk in, Zhou Xiwan sat up from the couch.
"Master, the prince is in the palace now, and it will be late to return home." Mama replied.
"Is he just that busy? I haven't seen him in almost two months. Zhou Xiwan's expression was very lonely.
"Master, the prince is also for your good, I want you to take care of your body, your child is gone, if you don't take care of your body, how can you raise it again, plus the prince is busy, when the prince is busy, he will naturally come over." Mama persuaded, but in her heart she felt that it was not like that, I don't know what is going on with the prince, I haven't come to the master for a long time, even if I am busy, there is always time to come and go around, and besides, the prince has not been to Aunt Wu during this time.
But you can't say this to the master, otherwise the master's mood will be bad.
"My poor child, I hate it so much, I hate it so much, if it weren't for Dugu Jin and Zhou Xiya, how could my child be gone." Zhou Xiwan couldn't help the hatred in her heart when she thought of her child.
Without children, she has no hope, her mother's family can't rely on her, her mother has no news, and she has no son by her side, how can she gain a foothold in the palace, she is not a fool, how can she not see the prince's snubbing of her, and even her status in the palace has plummeted, and the minions have begun to snub her.
"Master, bear with me, wait until you take care of your body, and then you will have the day to turn over." Mama didn't know how to persuade her.
"Let's go, go outside and wait for the prince" Zhou Xiwan got up.
"Master, is it raining outside?"
"It's just that it's raining to wait, I don't believe I can't wait for him" She Zhou Xiwan is not a person who accepts fate. (To be continued......)
