………………………………………………
Steward Qiao secretly stumbled on Han Qu, but with little effect, Yan Zhenrui not only didn't get annoyed, but also rewarded Han Qu again.
Han Qu was inexplicable, and later found that two paintings were lost, and he didn't dare to make a noise, after all, the person in the painting was Zhou Zhiqing. He wasn't so stupid as to make it public. People's hearts are unpredictable, no matter whether he and Zhou Zhiqing are innocent or not, once it is exposed, it will become a scandal, and innocence is not innocent, for him, for Zhou Zhiqing, it is a fatal thing.
Steward Qiao was puzzled, Han Qu was cautious, and Zhou Zhiqing was unconscious.
In the blink of an eye, in February, Yan Zhenrui was ordered to lead 100,000 troops into Tatar. This battle lasted for half a year, and when Yan Zhenrui came back, it was August.
Xiao Shizi is almost a year old, Yan Zhenrui was still a doll who didn't know anything when he left, and when he came back, Brother Xu would leave and call his mother.
Of course, his name is nursery.
Yan Zhenrui was too strange to him, especially when he was dusty, wearing armor, and there was no tenderness or smile on his solemn face, Brother Xu immediately cried.
He turned his head to look for the familiar nurse and the maid and servant who served him, but Yan Zhenrui was here, who dared to act rashly?
Yan Zhenrui picked up Brother Xu.
The armor on his body was cold and hard, and his arms were excessively forced, Brother Xu was uncomfortable everywhere, but he couldn't twist and twist away, and no one saved him, so he cried even more.
Brother Xu cried and shouted "mother", which made Yan Zhenrui stunned. He hugged Brother Xu and asked with a calm face, "Who taught it?" "He is not in the mansion these days, could it be that Uncle Qiao released the water and let the woman come back?
The nurse stepped forward tremblingly, almost fainting: "Return, back to the prince, what the little prince is called, is a slave, not a ......" Who dares to teach him the word mother? Don't want to die?
As for the word nurse, he learned it by himself inadvertently, and no one takes it seriously. I didn't know that the prince bumped into it as soon as he came back. The crowd was terrified.
Yan Zhenrui couldn't tell whether he was disappointed or happy, and was silent for a moment, and then waved them all down. The nurse turned back three times in one step, but Brother Xu was crying too much. But Yan Zhenrui is here. Roaring like a tiger. No one dares to stay here. Hengzhi is his own son, and how he likes to treat it is his own business.
When everyone left, Yan Zhenrui slapped Brother Xu'er's buttocks. Said: "Stinky boy, do you know what mother means? ”
Brother Xu was tired of crying, and bit his finger aggrievedly to look at him. Of course, he had nothing to answer, so Yan Zhenrui coaxed him with fruit, and waited until he stopped crying before putting him in bed to play by himself.
Yan Zhenrui wrote a recital, and when he had nothing to do, he held this milky doll and played together.
Brother Xu is not a crying child, he gradually became familiar with Yan Zhenrui, he couldn't escape, he couldn't hide, so he simply went with the flow. Steward Qiao flattered Yan Zhenrui and said: "Xiao Shizi still has some impressions of the prince, this is the deep love between father and son, no matter when, the two are the two masters." ”
Yan Zhenrui asked as if unintentionally: "Is the abandoned garden still alive?" ”
Steward Qiao was stunned for a moment before nodding: "Ansheng, Ansheng." ”
Not only is Ansheng, it is simply too Ansheng, the former concubine is like taking root and sprouting there, because the prince is not in the house, Steward Qiao is even more responsive to her, and now she takes care of the waste garden like a vegetable garden and a garden.
But Yan Zhenrui only asked this sentence, and there was nothing else.
Steward Joe couldn't figure out what he was thinking. To say that the prince forgot about Zhou Zhiqing? But after such a long time, the first thing he did when he came back was to see Brother Xu, and the first person to care about him was Zhou Zhiqing.
But to say that you haven't forgotten? This look, this attitude, is not like the posture of thinking about the old love and wanting to break the mirror and reunite.
Yan Zhenrui didn't explain to him, turned his head and went to his own again.
After August 15, the holy decree arrived in Beijing, and he took Brother Xu back to Beijing.
When the news spread, the mansion was calm, only Yan Zhenrui was busier, and he was with his staff almost every day, sometimes discussing things until dawn.
When the news reached Zhou Zhiqing, she was only stunned for a while.
This year, she was free to enter and leave the abandoned garden, but she didn't know how many pairs of eyes there were in the dark. It is also a last resort to be attached to flowers and vegetables all day long.
Yan Zhenrui is there or not, and the house takes care of Xiao Shizi well, and she doesn't even have a chance to take a sneak peek.
This year, Zhou Zhiqing was completely dead. This child, let's just think that she was born for someone else, they won't be together when they are young, even if they meet, do she want to pounce on him and hug him and cry, saying that she is his mother?
If you don't get driven away by the people next to you and don't get beaten to death by Yan Zhenrui, you will only be scared to death by Xiao Shizi: Where did this crazy woman come from?
Now that he is going to return to Beijing with Yan Zhenrui, he may be about to marry the concubine, and with the concubine, the child is bound to be raised by the princess, and it will be even more of his own business.
Zhou Zhiqing whispered to Xianzhi: "Xianzhi, I want to leave the palace." ”
Xianzhi barely hesitated at all, and only asked, "When?" ”
Zhou Zhiqing knew that Yan Zhenrui was leaving in early September, so he said, "Wait for the prince to leave." ”
Xianzhi nodded: "Hand it over to the slave." ”
On the third day of Yan Zhenrui's departure, there was a fire in the abandoned garden, and by the time Steward Qiao received the order to come to put out the fire, the house had already burned down. The guards and subordinates in the house could only look at the roaring fire and sigh from afar. The fire was too big to break into.
When the fire went out in the evening, two female bodies were found in the ashes. One of them is older, it is the mother-in-law who is in charge of Zhou Zhiqing's diet, and the other one has been burned beyond recognition, and Zhou Zhiqing is unmoved.
Steward Qiao didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly sent a letter to Yan Zhenrui. He didn't turn back halfway, only replied with two words: "Understood." ”
Yan Zhenrui was not there, and Qiao was in charge of investigating the case, so he didn't have much energy, and he asked the guards, but no one knew what was going on, but in the middle of the night, the abandoned garden suddenly caught fire.
Xianzhi is the most suspicious, Steward Qiao picked her up for interrogation, Xianzhi only said: "The slave and maid are wronged, if the Steward Qiao doesn't ask, then let the slave and maid die clearly." ”
Immediately wiped his neck with a knife.
It was neat and happy, as if it wasn't going to die, but something good, and I couldn't wait.
The prince didn't pursue it, and Qiao had no clue, so he simply dealt with the people, and cleaned up the waste garden, and only pretended that it was not his business. He wanted to wait for the prince to come back, but whoever wanted Yan Zhenrui to go would have no news.
In January and February, Yan Zhenrui still had no news, and Qiao was in a hurry, and the flying pigeon passed the book and went to the capital to investigate, only to know that the prince had just returned to Beijing and was relieved of his military power by His Majesty and imprisoned, accused of colluding with the Tatars and committing misdeeds. As for the misdeeds, no one knows, and the so-called evidence is also hidden from the royal secrets involved in this matter. (To be continued......)
