Chapter 014: Quietly Came

Another day in the court, Chu Zihou had clearly felt the difference in the prince's brother's attitude towards him, and immediately knew that it should be Liu Shipai's old guy who went to tell him something again, so after retiring from the court, he went back to the room with interest.

This does not mean that he is afraid of these people and these rights and wrongs, but he just does not want to meet them in general.

He suddenly felt that it was very important to take care of his mouth, especially in such a place with different purposes.

And on this day, Chu Zican did not invite him to the East Palace to discuss poetry and literature for the first time, he was also happy and quiet, and after lunch, he went to the library to find books to read.

In the spare time of reading, his heart suddenly felt faintly uneasy, thinking that he had been in the capital for five or six days, which must have made his mother very worried.

That evening, Chu Zihou went to see Emperor Guangzhao and expressed his desire to return to northern Xinjiang the next day.

Emperor Guangzhao was stunned for a moment, and asked reluctantly: "It's only been a few days, why are you in such a hurry to leave?" Is there something going on in the north? ”

"There's no other reason, I just think it's time to go back." Anyway, there was no other reason, Chu Zihou simply said it truthfully.

"Okay, I know that you must be afraid that your mother will worry again, so let's go back and come to me tomorrow before leaving the palace."

"No, thank you, father, the minister went down first." Chu Zihou immediately saluted and retreated.

After explaining that someone went to inform General Han, Chu Zihou spread out the paper and wrote a poem. He smiled as he wrote, unable to hide the sweetness of his heart.

When he had finished writing, he put it in his pocket and waited for the night to come.

When the night was dark, Chu Zihou left the palace.

Out of the palace gate, he immediately turned to the left, but he did not fly away immediately, but stood with his hands in his hands, and said in a cold voice: "If you know each other, don't follow me, otherwise you will blame me for being ruthless." ”

That man had been following him for several days, and he knew very well that it was Empress Wenci and Liu Shipai who had sent him to spy on him. He'd put up with him many times, and he didn't want to put up with it anymore this time.

The man hesitated in the darkness and swooped away.

Chu Zihou stood in place and listened carefully for a while, and when he heard that the person was far away, he jumped into an alley in front of him, changed into black clothes, put on a fake beard, and flew in the opposite direction of the Shen Mansion.

Flying out about two miles away, he went straight to the Shen Mansion from another direction.

People in this dynasty like to go to bed early, so at this time everyone has fallen asleep, and Xizhen is no exception.

Chu Zihou gently jumped onto the high wall of Shen Mansion, secretly came to the closest place to Shen Xizhen's boudoir, crumpled the poem into a small ball, looked at her window that was not completely closed, raised his hand to throw it, but suddenly stopped.

Because, he felt that it was inappropriate to do so.

He was afraid that she would think that he was reckless and undignified, and he was afraid that she would be angry because of it.

Because you like it, you have to respect it even more.

So he put it back in his pocket and looked at the window with affection, for it was dark inside and out, and he could not see it clearly.

Someday, I will write you a poem in the open. He said to himself, turned slightly, jumped over the high wall again, and flew in the direction of the palace.

Just as he arrived, Hee-jin had already woken up and sensed movement outside, and she quietly flew out of the roof through the specially made exit on the roof, observing him from the roof.

She looked at his aura and figure, and knew that he was the person she saw in the plum garden that day, and then she knew where he went, but in the court, she had already guessed his identity to seven or eight points.

Now, apart from his name, she knew a lot about him.

As for his name, as long as she wants to know, it won't take too much effort, but she doesn't need to deliberately look it up, because this person will intersect with her in the future, which is the arrangement of fate.

Xizhen lay back on the bed, but she couldn't sleep.

She thought that she was a person who had crossed over, and she always wanted to go back, but the person who appeared now seemed to be a special match for her, and she was worried that she would not be able to control her heart in the future, and she would be emotional, which would cause a big deal.

It's just that there are two sides to everything, what if he is the one who can help him complete the task? Thinking of this, she was suddenly relieved. However, due to her special status, she didn't want to break people's hearts at the end.

Alas, she sighed softly, forcibly suppressed the ups and downs in her heart, closed her eyes and counted the sheep, and after a while, finally fell asleep.

When she woke up, Chen's mother cautiously knocked on the door and came in, handed her a letter, and said, "Miss, this is what you entrusted my cousin to do last time, and he wrote the reply inside!" ”

"Okay, thank you Mama Chen!" Xi Zhen immediately showed the letter.

But I saw that the number she asked for was written in detail, and the names of the envoys to various countries and the addresses of their homes.

It's just that the military equipment in those three states is much less than she imagined, but it doesn't matter, she has already thought of a countermeasure.

Xizhen paid Chen's mother and her cousin a lot, and then told Xiang'er the size of her clothes, and asked Xiang'er to go to Buzhuang to make five sets of men's clothes for her.

Xiang'er happily accepted the order and left.

Seeing Xizhen's arrangement, Du Qiniang knew what she was going to do, so she smiled and said: "Zhen'er, among the three children, you are the most like your father, your mind is full of plans, and you never let yourself be idle." ”

Laughing.

When Xiang'er came back with the five sets of newly made men's clothes, she saw Xizhen sitting at the desk and reading softly to a book, but the pronunciation was extremely strange, because she asked, "Miss, what book are you reading?" ”

"The Book of Words."

"Whispering? What is the language of the country? Xiang'er asked.

"Uh-huh." Hee Zhen replied calmly.

"Miss, what are you doing here?" Xiang'er hurriedly lowered her voice and asked.

"It will be useful in the future, you can put down your clothes and go to the kitchen to help." Xi Zhen said.

"Okay." Miss Xiang'er didn't like to explain more, so she didn't dare to ask more, so she was ordered to retreat.

General Han entered the palace early in the morning and waited for Chu Zihou to leave.

Emperor Guangzhao set up a banquet to send them off. During the banquet, there were also Empress Wenci, Dong Guifei, Chu Zican, Chu Ziyao, Prime Minister Ji Chengfan and Protector Liu Shimo.

These people are all old-fashioned, and Emperor Guangzhao is currently inclined to be close to the old-fashioned school.

Chu Zican originally wanted to push his illness and not come to see him off, but after thinking about it, after all, brothers, how could the relationship between the two be ruined because of the words of the prime minister back then? So it finally came. It's just that because he learned about that incident, Chu Zican's eyes when he looked at Chu Zihou were much more complicated.

Chu Zihou also noticed the change in his brother's attitude towards him, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart: It seems that people's words are terrifying! In the future, I and my brother will never be as close as before! Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel sad for a while, so he didn't say a word during the banquet, just drank, and only said something to take care of each other when he was about to set off.

Out of the palace gate, Chu Zihou and General Han got on their horses and galloped all the way to the north, this time, Chu Zihou still asked to go from the branch road of Meiyuan, and General Han readily agreed.

It's just that this time, the door of the plum garden is locked from the outside. Chu Zihou stopped in front of the door, remembering the situation of meeting Shen Xizhen that day, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Miss Shen, we will meet again, and besides, I will not let this day come too late.

He glanced at the word 'plum garden' on the lintel again, imagining the scene of playing the piano with her in the future, and his heart suddenly felt like drinking honey.

Seeing that Chu Zihou's face was red, General Han knew that he must have remembered the girl, so he asked, "Lord Wang, have you inquired about the identity of that girl?" ”

"I've inquired."

"Oh?"

"She is the daughter of Shen Zhihao, the former envoy of the festival."

"Shen Zhihao? Isn't this Shen Xibin's father in the Metropolitan Protectorate? ”

"Exactly."

"Then, Lord Wang, does she have a marriage contract?"

"Not yet."

"Ahh That's great, my lord, what are you going to do next? ”

"I'll go back and talk to my mother, and I'll talk to her two brothers, I want to marry her." When he said this, Chu Zihou blushed while smiling, and his happiness overflowed.

"It's good, it's good, the prince and her are really a match made in heaven!"

"I also think so, Miss Shen is a foreign object in the dust, rare in the world, if I can marry her, I will have no regrets in this life." Chu Zihou said with a smile as he patted the horse forward.

"That's, that's!" General Han also hurried to follow.

The two of them soon disappeared at the end of the mountain road.
