The little boy looked at Zhao Xiu with some curiosity, tilted his head and asked, "Who are you?" "Look at the smoke again.

Yanxia smiled and put Zhao Xiu on the soft felt on the other side of the small table, and said, "This is the youngest granddaughter of Zhao Laojungong, the prince asked the slave maid to send her over and play with the prince." ”

The little boy looked at Zhao Xiu seriously: "Zhao Lao Jungong is your grandfather?" I've seen him before, he's an old man with a white beard, he's a loud talker, he's a spear, he's a good look. ”

Zhao Xiu thought to himself that as soon as I walked over, this cheap grandfather had been dead for a hundred days, and he really hadn't seen him, and there were no portraits or anything like that from my grandmother and father, so if someone asked, they would definitely wear them. In the past, she pretended to be a baby and couldn't speak, and no one asked her, but now she talks and slips away, and sooner or later she will encounter this kind of trouble, what can she do at that time? Zhao Xiu's original body is very favored, and it stands to reason that he should have a deep impression of his grandfather.

So she put on a curious expression: "Have you really seen my grandfather?" I didn't hear him mention you. ”

"Of course it's true!" The little boy glared unconvinced, "I am Gao Zhen, the prince of Guangping, I have seen the old prince in the palace of the emperor several times, he is very good to me, I had a birthday last year, and he also gave me a little red horse!" The little red horse was so energetic that my father promised me that when I was two years older, he would teach me how to ride a horse himself. ”

Zhao Xiu smiled dryly: "Really? You're so good, my grandfather used to give you a little red horse, but he didn't give it to me. "What I thought in my heart was that I really didn't know what luck my family had, but I was actually saved by a prince, and I was still the emperor's own son, although I don't know why I was a prince who took my wife and children on patrol, but this is at least a trustworthy backer. You must know that the current emperor is very grateful to her cheap grandfather, I heard that if it weren't for the cheap grandfather to the first emperor, he would probably not be able to do it, so to speak, including him and his concubines, are the natural backers of the Jiannan Hou Mansion, the problem is that it is now the internal struggle of the Jiannan Hou Mansion, and it is really impossible to say which side they will help, even if they are willing to stand up for the mother and son of the Zhang family in the second room, it is impossible to punish the little Changfang impartially.

Thinking about it like this, Zhao Xiu was a little depressed.

Yanxia didn't know when she got out of the carriage and sent a box of snacks and two bowls of freshly made hot almond tea: "Shizi is hungry, right?" This is freshly brewed almond tea, the snacks are brought from home, there are no good things when you go out, and the prince will settle down in the big city, and then let the kitchen make food for you. ”

Although the prince of Guangping is young, he is not squeamish at all: "This is good for breakfast, what else do you want to eat?" Let Zhao Xiu again: "Let's eat together, the almond tea cooked by Cao's mother is very fragrant, and the dim sum is also very delicious." ”

Zhao Xiu also had an empty stomach, so he agreed immediately, and the two children ate together. Zhao Xiu took a sip of almond tea, suddenly remembered her grandmother and brother, and hurriedly asked Yanxia: "Sister, are my grandmother and brother awake?" ”

Yanxia smiled: "I patronized and waited for you this morning, where do I know anything else?" You have breakfast first, and I'll inquire about you, but you have to get along with our son." And he lifted the curtain and went out.

The prince of Guangping asked Zhao Xiu again: "Your grandmother and brother are also here?" Don't you live in the capital? How did it come? ”

Zhao Xiu didn't know whether to tell him directly, but if he really wanted to tell the truth, it seemed too troublesome, so he said vaguely: "We originally wanted to go back to our hometown, but we ran into your father when we encountered something halfway." After a pause, "Where are you going?" Don't you also live in the capital? ”

Unexpectedly, the prince of Guangping was tight-mouthed at a young age: "My father took me out to play." Then he asked, "What is your brother's name?" How old is it? Can you practice martial arts? Do you know how to ride a horse? Will it play with a spear? ”

Zhao Xiu thought to himself that I didn't know either, so he answered the name and age of his little brother Zhao Wei, and then asked the prince of Guangping to tell him about the situation when he met his grandfather, the prince of Jiannan County. The prince of Guangping was deeply impressed by the old prince and had a very good impression, and immediately described in great detail the situation of meeting him several times, even what clothes he wore, what weapons he liked to use, what tone he spoke to adults and children, and what mantras he didn't miss, so that Zhao Xiu made up for his understanding of his grandfather.

The two children chatted while drinking almond tea and eating snacks, so they dealt with breakfast. Yanxia got into the carriage again, and this time she brought good news: "The princess has woken up, and the princess asked the slave to take Miss Zhao over." ”

Wang Shizi of Guangping was a little reluctant, and said solemnly to Zhao Xiu: "You come to me again in a while, let's still chat and play together, how about it?" ”

Zhao Xiu agreed, and Yanxia picked herself up and transferred to another carriage.

This carriage was smaller than the two cars that the prince and the prince sat in before, and it seemed to be only slightly more comfortable than the one in Yanxia, and the space was not small. As soon as Zhao Xiu entered, he saw a young beauty sitting near the outside, wearing bamboo blue clothes, with a white jade phoenix hairpin on her head, and a little tired between her eyebrows. Yanxia put Zhao Xiu down and respectfully called this beauty "princess", Zhao Xiu knew that she was the wife of the king of Guangping, and she was indeed a pair of beautiful people.

Zhao Xiu followed Yanxia and shouted "princess", and then paid attention to her grandmother Zhang who was half-lying inside, and her little brother Zhao Wei was still sleeping next to her, who seemed to be not awake yet, and her face was also pale. Zhao Xiu climbed to her grandmother's side worriedly and looked at her little brother: "Grandmother, what's wrong with my brother?" Is he still sick? ”

Zhang glanced at his granddaughter in surprise, and in front of Princess Guangping, she didn't say much, so she replied: "Your brother has taken medicine and is already better, but he soaked in the water for a long time last night, and the wind blew, and it will take some time to get better." ”

Princess Guangping smiled softly: "Madame has such a pair of smart and clever grandchildren, which is really enviable. Don't worry, the prince and I brought out this time, Imperial Doctor Jiang, the medical skills are very clever, since he said that it is okay, the little boy will definitely cure the disease. ”

Zhang politely thanked her again: "Thank you, Princess Jiyan." If it weren't for the prince and princess Gao Yi this time, I am afraid that my ancestors and grandchildren would have suffered miserably. The grace of saving lives is unforgettable. ”

"You're welcome. The emperor often mentions the kindness of the county grandfather, today your family is in trouble, our husband and wife have not met, since they have met, there is no reason not to lend a hand. Please rest assured, the prince has sent his guards to search for the traces of Ling Lang Ling's daughter-in-law and his family along the river, and there will be news soon. Princess Guangping looked at Zhao Xiu, "Ling's granddaughter worried about you all night last night, and now Ling's granddaughter must have a lot to say, so I won't bother." ”

The Zhang family sent her away very politely, and even Yanxia went out, leaving only the three ancestors and grandchildren of the Zhang family in the carriage, and Zhao Wei was still asleep.

Zhao Xiu whispered to Zhang: "The prince called me over and asked me what happened last night, and I told the prince. ”

Zhang's expression was grim, and he took his granddaughter's hand: "Good boy, tell me honestly, why didn't you see you all night, and you suddenly became smart?" ”

Regarding this, Zhao Xiu has already thought of a way to deal with it: "I don't know what's going on, when it was windy and rainy yesterday, I stayed in the cabin with the nurse, and I seemed to be asleep in a daze, and then I saw my grandfather." ”

Zhang's brows furrowed: "Nonsense! How did you see him? The son is silent, and the power is confused! ”

"It's true!" Zhao Xiu tried to open his sincere eyes, "Isn't my grandfather on the uncle's boat in front?" It's not far from us, so why can't he come and see us? My grandfather, like before, had a long white beard, a robe embroidered with red stripes on a black background, and spoke loudly. ”

This is what I just heard from Xiao Shizi, the king of Guangping, and it is now fried and sold, but when Zhang heard it, his eyes turned red. That is the most typical image of the old county prince before his death, she thought that her granddaughter missed the old county prince too much, so she would think about it day and night, and couldn't help choking: "Is it?" Did you really see your grandfather? What did he tell you? ”

Zhao Xiu said: "My grandfather told me to run, and he said that the boat was in the water." ”

Zhang was sad when he heard this, and suddenly paused: "Your grandfather told you that the boat is in the water?" ”

Zhao Xiu nodded: "But I don't understand, and I miss my grandfather, so I stretched out my hand to let him hug me, but as soon as my grandfather's hand touched me, it passed through me, and he couldn't pick me up at all." He sighed and said, "Only a child can see him, and he wanted to go to his brother, and he can understand what he says, but my brother is awake, and he has no choice, so he has to come to me, but if I don't understand him, what is the use?" If we don't run, we really can't run away. He slapped me on the head vigorously and I woke up. When I woke up, I felt like something was more in my head, and I understood a lot more about things. ”

Zhang vaguely guessed what the grandfather of the county had "done" to his granddaughter, and hurriedly asked, "What happened later?" ”

"Later, when the nurse heard that my grandmother was looking for Chuncao, she took me to call someone, but saw a gangster running out of the bilge with a knife, and we hid and watched him leave, so we went to the cabin." Zhao Xiu lowered his head a little gloomily, "I saw that the bottom of the boat was flooded and Chuncao was also dead, so I figured out what my grandfather said, so I desperately shouted loudly, telling my grandmother and father and mother to escape quickly." ”

Zhang remembered the situation at that time, tears came out again, hugged his granddaughter tightly and cried: "Good boy, this is your grandfather's spirit in the sky, and he can't watch Zhao Jiong kill his mother and kill his brother, so he will rush to warn." It's a pity that the heavens don't follow people's wishes, only we escaped safely, and I don't know where your father and mother are, whether they are still alive in the world. ”

She cried very sadly, Zhao Xiu could only use a pair of small hands to pat her back constantly to appease, thinking about the new parents whose life and death were unknown, she was also very sad. Why did she have such a hard life, lost her parents, became an orphan for a year, and came to this dynasty, thinking that she had parents again, and added her grandmother and brother, but in a blink of an eye, her relatives suffered another accident. Is she destined to have no parents?

Zhao Wei moved, and seemed to wake up. Zhao Xiu hurriedly called Zhang: "Grandmother, my brother seems to be awake!" Zhang hurriedly collected his tears, turned to look at his grandson, and sure enough, he found that he opened his eyes, but he just called "mother" weakly, and then passed out again, Zhang was so anxious that he called him repeatedly, Zhao Xiu hurriedly lifted the curtain and shouted Yanxia, asking her to invite the imperial doctor over.

Imperial Doctor Jiang came over to diagnose Zhao Wei's pulse, and said: "It's good to wake up, the little boy will faint again when the wind and cold enter the body, and his body will be weak, and I will prescribe it again and take the medicine." ”

Zhang thanked him repeatedly, and hugged his little grandson and secretly shed tears. If something happens to his son, Zhao Wei is the only seedling in their second room, if there is anything, what should she do?

There was a sudden commotion on the periphery of the camp, and after a while, Yanxia, who had been following Imperial Doctor Jiang to boil medicine, came to report happily: "A person rescued, it's a woman, and she's still angry!" ”

Zhang and Zhao Xiu were overjoyed. I wonder who this will be saved?
