Chapter 171

Not far from the Feng Palace, there is a river, called the Butterfly River, because every spring, there are thousands of butterflies around the riverside and get the name.

There are willow trees planted on the riverside.

The person hanging above this night was the girl of the Li family, Li Lianxiu, and she was only wearing a thin shirt, which looked particularly abrupt in the winter night when the cold wind was blowing.

"Lord Wang."

Zhou Rongjun raised his eyes and looked at it a few times, don't overdo it.

Father-in-law Su took a handkerchief and gave it to him, but he didn't look at it, took out the handkerchief that his in-house gave him from his placket and gagged it, sniffed his nose twice, raised his face, and said lightly, "Come back to me after you find out." ”

As he spoke, he looked sideways at the prison on duty today, raised his eyebrows, and hooked the corners of his mouth, "Qiu Bantou has to be checked carefully." ”

Qiu Jie was a man of Emperor Wen of Zhou.

The lion king entered Beijing with 30,000 soldiers, 500 of whom were under his banner, and he managed them to death.

Even if it was just a letter to the lion king, that person could be skinned by him.

The lion king army is loyal, they are supported by the lion king with hard work and money, how can they fail their master, Qiu Jie was ordered by the emperor to manage the lion king army of 500 people, how can there be no contradiction with the loyal lion king army?

His loyalty to the emperor means that he has offended many people in the Lion King's army, and offending them is the same as offending the Lion King.

The lion king's words are not salty or light, but Qiu Jie felt that his scalp was numb, and he bowed and said, "I will not get the order." ”

The corners of Zhou Rongjun's mouth twitched, and his cold face, in the eyes of all the Praetorian Guards, was more terrifying than the female corpse hanging on the willow tree of the Butterfly River on a cold winter night.

"Li Xiang's daughter, the person who broke into the Wucai Palace the night before." After Zhou Rongjun came back, he lowered his head and whispered a word beside Emperor Zhou Wen, and after speaking lightly, he stood up straight again.

"Hmm."

Emperor Zhou Wen hugged the queen, the queen was next to his chest, and now Emperor Zhou Wen was so intimate that there was no gap, but she still ignored their words, and her eyes kept looking at Pianhong.

When Pian Hong woke up, it was already early in the morning.

After she woke up, she tilted her head sideways and searched for a while before she found the eyes of Queen Wan.

Then, she closed her eyes, tears streaming down her eyes.

Empress Wan turned her head and buried her head in Emperor Wen Zhou's arms.

Zhou Rongjun couldn't see her face, but when he saw that the clothes on his father's chest were dyed dark, he knew that she was still crying.

Still crying......

She cried, his father was still distressed, as he said, he now has the power to feel distressed.

But his father should also know that he has the right to feel sorry for his woman, and he, who is a son, also has the right to feel sorry for his woman.

Every woman, every man, every man.

Zhou Rongjun didn't think about letting other people feel sorry for his woman, but if he was in a desperate situation and when he fought back, his father should also know that none of them owed anyone.

Even if he wants the throne one day, it is not given by him, the emperor.

Everything he got around Rongjun, every slightest, was fought out by him.

He didn't owe them.

**

"Mother."

Empress Wan was about to go over, and Emperor Zhou Wen hugged her to the bedside.

Pian Hong called her weakly.

Queen Wan's eyebrows were tightly tightened, she was really not an ordinary woman, even when she was so haggard and miserable, she still had a straight back, and the words in her mouth were still very indifferent, "Give you a period of time to recuperate, and then come back to take turns." ”

She has always been a very proud woman.

Noble and indifferent.

This is also what Emperor Zhou Wendi loves most about her.

Pian Hong understands very well how her mother has come to this point, and she is fearless.

At this time, she is unique and unique in the world, only the emperor around her is still alive, in fact, no one can take away her true pride.

What she has relied on all her life is actually the emperor.

But Niangniang always didn't admit it, and she never wanted to think about it.

It's a pity, when her mother really understands, I really don't know what year and month it will be.

"Mother." Pian Hong stretched out her hand to reach her.

Queen Wan clenched her hands and clenched them into fists, and then, at a speed faster and more accurate than Pianhong, she grabbed Pianhong's hand tightly.

She didn't say anything, but it was enough for Rainbow to look at the tears that flowed from the corners of her eyes.

She no longer understands the humble feelings lurking in this world, but even if she is a cheap slave, she still feels sorry for her old girl.

After Empress Wan was taken away by Emperor Zhou Wen, who was silent and cold-faced, Pian Hong looked at their backs and laughed stupidly.

Heng Chang, who walked behind the emperor, looked back at her tearful smile and tears, and his face was full of tears.

Zhou Rongjun didn't leave, he looked at these people indifferently, watched them go, watched them laugh, watched them cry, and stood still without moving.

"The Four Princes." At the end, Pian Hong looked at Zhou Rongjun, who was standing there and didn't leave, and didn't even dare to approach to see her when he retreated to the door.

"Auntie." Zhou Rongjun bowed his head at her.

Pian Hong looked at him and smiled again.

It's just that the smile this time is very gratifying, not as emotional as before.

In her heart, the fourth prince has always been a polite and decent prince.

It's just that he left the palace too quickly, and he was only ten years old at that time.

Later, they deliberately kept the etiquette, as strange as if they had never been close before, what could Rainbow do as a slave? can only look at the child she once held in the palm of her hand, and never know what he was thinking in his heart.

But she knew that he had always respected her.

He has always known her sincerity to him and his wife and children, so he has never made her feel sorry, even if there are moles around them in the Wanhua Palace, he still chooses to believe her.

Pian Hong is grateful.

She looked at Zhou Rongjun gratefully, "Xie Lu, thank you for coming to see me." ”

Zhou Rongjun was silent for a while, glanced at her, and finally turned around and left without saying anything.

He didn't have much to say.

Zhen Jill is here, she is sure to see her.

Aunt Pianhong?

What kind of being is she? Zhou Rongjun: This is the first time to think about what kind of person she is.

In the past, she was only estimated by him as a person next to his mother.

Thinking about it now, especially from the eyes she looked at him, Zhou Rongjun saw countless kindnesses.

This was the first time he discovered that the old woman beside her queen mother had actually been very good to him all along.

She is too good to be obvious, but when you look closely, she is actually no worse than Hu Miao, and they are often worse.

She's fine.

But she's just fine, she's still living like a remnant flower that has been covered with ashes and is about to sink into the ground.

Is that the case with those who are not cherished?

Zhou Rongjun's heart palpitated.

His Zhenjier, if she didn't have his protection and love, would she have become like this in the end?

Thinking about it, Zhou Rongjun actually felt that his heart hurt as if it had been torn out of his chest.

Then, his expression turned grim again.

A person like his mother can live so wantonly and recklessly, and the whole world owes her the way, why does the princess he cares about not live as well as her?

His princess is not as good as his queen mother? It's just a joke in the world.

How could he possibly allow such a thing to happen.

**

"Lord Wang." The secret guard standing in the Wucai Palace shouted with blue eyes towards Zhou Rongjun, who had returned.

Zhou Rongjun strode in.

The Dark Guard followed closely.

Zhou Rongjun didn't go back to the dormitory and went to the study.

After he entered, the secret guard bowed his head to Zhou Rongjun, signaling that he had something to say.

Zhou Rongjun didn't speak, and after sitting down, the few generals he brought in all retreated, and Gonggong Su walked to the door, glanced at the secret guard, and saw him nodding, he took the door and retreated.

The secret guard stood for a while, and when there was a light knock on the door, he took out a sealed bamboo tube from his sleeve and said to Zhou Rongjun, "The princess's letter." ”

Zhou Rongjun took the bamboo tube and looked at the seal, and after she sealed it with her own hands, she cut off her head and took out the letter from it.

In the letter, Liu Zhenji still reported good news but not bad news.

At an extraordinary moment, she will not talk easily, and what she can solve will be solved by herself.

Zhou Rongjun read the end of the letter, and saw that she said that she hoped to hear the good news that he could return to the northwest in a few days, he couldn't help but put the letter in his hand, his eyes looked at his hand, but his fingers kept beating on the desk.

He knew that she and the boy wanted him back.

But now, maybe for a while, he really can't go back.

The secret guard came from the northwest, Zhou Rongjun raised his head and asked him, "How is the princess?" ”

"It's very busy, there are more adults in the northwest, and there are some things you gave her, she is busy until midnight, so she can take a break for a while."

"She's thin?"

The Dark Guard hesitated.

"Say."

"My subordinates didn't see it."

Zhou Rongjun was silent for a while, and then the corners of his mouth curled, as if he was smiling.

It's okay, I don't dare to look at her more, it seems that I still put him in my eyes.

"Go to a break." The secret guards who came and went to pick up the letters had a day's rest, and Zhou Rongjun didn't delay his time too much and let him retreat.

"Thank you, Lord Wang."

The secret guard went down, and Grandpa Su came in.

"Lord Wang."

"Say."

"Li Xiang, Lord Li wants to see you."

"Oh?"

"Yes, his letter to Zhang Ge Laotou."

Zhou Rongjun smiled, "I really want to see it." ”

This is the second time in two days that I have seen him so impatiently, right?

"Do you see or ......?"

"The letter from the old man of Zhang Ge?"

"Yes."

"I'm going to go to the mourning hall later, in the middle of the hour? Let Elder Zhang Ge wait for me in the middle of the road for a while, I have a few words to say to him. ”

"The slave and maid have learned the truth." Gonggong Su raised his head and saw that the prince had nothing more to say, so he hurriedly retreated and arranged for Zhang Ge Lao to enter the palace to speak.

As soon as the old man received the news from the palace, it was useless to have breakfast at the moment, so he changed his regular clothes when he returned to the house.

The abolished prince was mourned, and he rested for ten days, they didn't need to go to court, and if he was declared into the palace by the lion king, it was not good to wear official clothes, and it was the safest to wear regular clothes.

In the past few days, Mrs. Zhang has also been waiting by Mr. Zhang's side every day because of the complicated situation in the DPRK and China.

She gave birth to a clumsy child, originally thought that this life was hopeless, but diligence can make up for clumsiness, and the sister-in-law came from behind, and was actually a late bloomer, and her husband became more and more important year by year over the years, and she returned to him to wait for him, more attentive than before, I hope to help my eldest son and grandchildren a little.

As soon as Zhang Ge Lao entered the inner room to change clothes, she hurriedly followed in and helped his old slave change clothes for him.

She didn't say a word, Zhang Ge Lao saw his old wife, and he didn't speak for a while, but when he went out, he slowed down, turned around and whispered to her, "You go and tell Ju Run, tell him to be more vigilant, the people in the family are all taken care of, don't go out if you don't have anything to do." ”

"I know it." Old Madam Zhang nodded.

With just a few heads, Zhang Ge Lao hurriedly disappeared by the door.

Old Madam Zhang turned her head, her expression was no longer humble, and she said to the old woman beside her, "Where is the uncle?" ”
