Forty-two, Zhao Zongyuan is also a person

When she calmed down, Xiao Sui was still worried about her lack of calmness, she recalled over and over again the scene when Han Derang fell from his horse, it was really dangerous, if it wasn't for Yelu's oblique, Han Derang might have been poisoned. Who wants to harm Han Derang? She knew the man was there.

Xiao Xuan carefully recalled the scene at that time, but she could hardly remember anything other than Han Derang falling from his horse.

Later, she vaguely remembered that there was a person who ran into the court earlier and faster than her, and Han Derang was helped out of the court with a limp.

Who is she?

Xiao Sui couldn't remember who helped Han Derang out of the court, she seemed to remember that a black shadow faster than a hound rushed into the court, and then, she also rushed over, and saw Han Derang limping out.

Who was so quick and desperate to save Han Derang? Who is so attentive to him?

Xiao Sui asked the people around him, and they all said that it was a female slave, and he didn't know what it was called.

Why is a female slave so desperate to save Han Derang, who is Han Derang?

An inexplicable jealousy surged up, and Xiao Xuan ordered Xian Shi to find out who this female slave was.

Soon, Xian Shi came back and said that this female slave was Zhao Zongyuan.

"Zhao Zongyuan," Xiao Xuan couldn't think of this person, and said, "Who is Zhao Zongyuan?" ”

Xianshi said: "It's a small commitment in the Tailoring Bureau. ”

Xiao Sui said: "How did she run to the court with a little promise? ”

"She sent clothes to the players. ”

Xiao Sui said: "Oh - what a coincidence. What kind of person is this little promise? ”

Xian Shi said: "Could it be that the Queen Mother really forgot this person, she was personally let by the Queen Mother to enter the Judgment Bureau." ”

Xiao Sui said, "When have I seen this person? ”

Xian Shi said: "The Queen Mother still remembers the female captive who came to the Khitan with Wang Jizhong? ”

Xiao Sui immediately remembered and said, "Remember, remember, Zhao Zongyuan is her?"

Xianshi said, "Yes, it's her." ”

Xiao Sui said: "What does she have to do with the political order? Why rush into the field desperately to save the government? ”

Xian Shi shook his head and said, "The slave doesn't know. ”

Xiao Sui said: "You go and call Zhao Zongyuan, I have something to ask her." ”

Xian Shi went not long ago and brought back Zhao Zongyuan.

Zhao Zongyuan looked tired, his eyes were red, and his face was covered with gloom.

Xiao Sui said: "Your name is Zhao Zongyuan." ”

Zhao Zongyuan whispered, "Yes." ”

Xiao Xuan said: "Who are you in the government order?" ”

Zhao Zongyuan snorted and didn't say anything for a long time.

Xiao Sui said, "What? What can't be said? ”

Zhao Zongyuan said: "The government decree is not a slave or a maid. ”

Xiao Sui said: "It's not you, why are you desperately trying to save him?" ”

Zhao Zongyuan said: "The slave maid saved the government to repay him. ”

Xiao Xuan was stunned for a moment, his jealousy churned, and said, "Repay him?" Why should you repay him? ”

Zhao Zongyuan said: "The political decree is the great benefactor of slaves and maids. ”

Xiao Xuan was puzzled: "What, Han Derang is your great benefactor?" When did he be gracious to you? ”

Zhao Zongyuan's eyes became redder, tears flowed down, and he said: "More than ten years ago, the political order saved the slave maid. ”

Xiao Xuan didn't seem to understand, and said, "What? Han Derang saved you more than ten years ago? ”

Zhao Zongyuan nodded and said: "Yes, more than ten years ago in the suburbs of Nanjing, the slave maid was prepared to be abducted and sold to the Jurchen by several traffickers, but fortunately, he encountered the political order, he arrested the trafficker and saved the slave and maid, if he did not encounter the political order, the slave and the maid may not live today." ”

Xiao Sui said: "Is there such a thing? Why didn't I listen to Han Derang? ”

Zhao Zongyuan said: "Who is the government order, and how much is this trivial matter, maybe he has long forgotten it." ”

Xiao Xuan listened to Zhao Zongyuan's tone, as if she admired Han Derang very much, which made her very uncomfortable, she wanted to know if Han Derang knew Zhao Zongyuan. This Zhao Zongyuan is good at disguise, could it be that she came to Khitan in disguise as a man just to find Han Derang?

When the words came to her mouth, Xiao Sui didn't ask, she wanted to wait until she saw Han Derang and see what he said.

Xiao Xuan waved her hand to let Zhao Zongyuan go back, looking at Zhao Zongyuan's back, a person appeared in her mind, and she couldn't help but say to herself: "Why is it so like her?" ”

Two days later, Xiao Xuan called Zhao Zongyuan and said, "I went to visit the government order today, you can go with me." ”

Zhao Zongyuan's eyes lit up, and he said: "The slave maid has always been worried about the injury of the political order, and I wanted to go to see him, but the slave maid couldn't even go out of the palace gate, and today, it is really good to be able to go with the queen mother." ”

Xiao Xuan sneered: "You are quite concerned about the government decree. ”

Han Derang was taken aback when he heard that Xiao Xuan led the emperor and hundreds of civil and military officials to come, and hurriedly dragged his lame leg out of the tent, kneeling on the side of the road tremblingly.

When Xiao Yu saw it, he asked Zhao Zongyuan to step forward to help him, saying, "Aiqing is injured, so I am exempt from courtesy." ”

Han Derang said: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is here in the Humble House, the ministers are very honored, a little injury is not enough to worry about, please come in." ”

The group entered Han Derang's dome, and the dome suddenly seemed cramped, and some people had almost no place to stand, so it was hard to make room for the emperor and the queen mother to sit, but some people had to stand outside the tent.

Yelu Longxu said, "Lord Han, your tent is too small. ”

Han Derang said: "This dome is actually not small, but there are many people here today, so it seems smaller. ”

When Xiao Sui heard this, his nose was a little sore, and when he saw that he was still standing, he said, "You can sit down too, your feet are still hurt." ”

Han Derang said: "It doesn't matter, it's okay to stand with a little injury." ”

Xiao Sui said: "It is said that it takes a hundred days to hurt the muscles and bones, and you can't be careless, as you get older, it is more difficult for the bones to grow." ”

At this time, Zhao Zongyuan had already found a stool and placed it behind Han Derang.

Xiao Xuannunu said, "Look, the stools have been moved for you." ”

Han Derang glanced at Zhao Zongyuan, couldn't help but be stunned, his gaze stayed on her face for a while, and then sat down.

Xiao Sui said, "What? Do you recognize her? ”

Han Derang shook his head and said, "No, the minister doesn't recognize this person." ”

Xiao Sui said: "It seems that the government decree will also be ungrateful, a few days ago, people risked being trampled by horses and ran into the field to save you, have you forgotten?" ”

Han Derang looked at Zhao Zongyuan again and said, "I'm sorry, I really don't remember, it was very messy at the time, I really don't remember." ”

Xiao Sui said: "But people remember you, and they won't forget it for more than ten years." ”

Han Derang was inexplicable, and everyone was like a cloud.

saw Zhao Zongyuan kneel down all of a sudden, and said with tears in his eyes: "Benefactor, Lord Han, you said that the great benefactor of the slave and maid." ”

Han Derang looked confused and said, "What great benefactor? When will I be gracious to you? ”

Zhao Zongyuan said: "Lord Han doesn't remember the slave? The slave is the one you saved from traffickers on the outskirts of Nanjing more than ten years ago. ”

Han Derang was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "It's you?" Sure enough, it's you, you're not going home, what are you doing here? ”

Xiao Sui said: "People are coming here to look for you." ”

Zhao Zongyuan said: "It's not a secret, the slave maid came to the Khitan, it was indeed looking for someone, not for Lord Han." ”

Xiao Sui said: "Then who are you looking for?" ”

Zhao Zongyuan said: "The slave came to find her daughter. ”

Han Derang said, "You came to find your daughter? ”

Zhao Zongyuan nodded.

Han Derang said: "How do you know that your daughter is in Khitan? ”

Zhao Zongyuan said: "Someone in the slave and maid neighborhoods is doing business in Shangjing and has seen her. ”

Han Derang said, "Then did you find her?" ”

Zhao Zongyuan cried and shook his head.

Han Derang said: "Don't worry, as long as someone has seen your daughter, then you will definitely find it, you tell me about your daughter's situation, and I will help you find it." ”

Zhao Zongyuan said that she was not grateful, saying that her daughter was abducted and sold by traffickers at the age of four, she searched everywhere, but there was no news, and later, she met a group of traffickers who said that they saw her daughter in Nanjing, and tricked her into going to Nanjing to look for her, so she went to Nanjing with that group of people, but they wanted to sell it to the Jurchens, but fortunately met Han Derang and saved her. However, she found out that her daughter was indeed in Nanjing, and her daughter was abducted and sold to Nanjing by the gang who deceived her.

It seems that later her daughter went to the house of a high-ranking official. Later, her neighbors saw her daughter in Shangjing, and it seemed that she was doing well, and she was very pompous in food and clothing. But then, there was no news.

When Zhao Zongyuan spoke, Han Derang stared at her closely, and at this time he no longer doubted his guess, and the intense pain tormented him, and he seemed to hear the sound of stumbling footsteps coming towards him.

Xiao Sui said: "Okay, Zhao Zongyuan, Lord Han needs to rest, and you will talk about it later." ”

Zhao Zongyuan glanced at Han Derang and exclaimed, "Lord Han, what's wrong with you, what's wrong with you?" ”

Han Derang said: "You go down first, I have something to say to the emperor and the queen mother." ”

After Zhao Zongyuan left, Xiao Sui said: "The government order now knows who she is?" ”

Han Derang nodded, his eyes full of grief.

Xiao Sui said, "I want to leave her to serve you." ”

Han Derang hurriedly said no.

Xiao Sui said: "Why don't, look at your dome, it's small, broken, lifeless, like a tomb, you are sick, and you have no one to take care of you, how can you do it?" ”

Han Derang said: "The minister has a subordinate to serve. ”

Xiao Xuan said with a smile: "Just your old and deaf minion, it's a big deal to boil water for you and feed the horses, where do you know how to take care of people?" ”

Mu Fang said: "Yes, third brother, as the saying goes, 'there is no woman at the head of the bed, and there is no master at home', you can't always live like this." ”

Han Derang said: "Big brother, you know the younger brother, one person has long been used to it, and adding another person is a burden." ”

Xiao Sui said: "You are so strange, people don't think you're sloppy, but you think they're cumbersome, look at your vault, where is it like a home?" I've been here for most of the day, and I haven't even drunk a cup of tea, so you're so hospitable? ”

Han Derang hurriedly apologized and said: "It's really inconsiderate, please forgive the queen mother, the emperor, and the minister will make tea for you and the emperor." ”

Xiao Sui said: "Let's let Zhao Zongyuan make tea, I wait for you to make tea, I'm afraid you will die of thirst." ”

Han Derang smiled helplessly.

Xiao Xuan looked at the vault again, and said to the guards: "You go back to the palace and get a big tent, you can't let all the officials stand." ”

Han De asked the officials to clench their fists and apologize, and asked them to Haihan.

Xiao Sui smiled and said: "Looking at the poverty of your family, I'm afraid I won't be able to entertain everyone with any good things, I simply give you a favor, let the palace send some wine and meat, I will feast the ministers in your Han Mansion today, and get drunk with everyone." ”

All the officials applauded together.

Han Derang was very embarrassed, but just laughed.

It didn't take long for Zhao Zongyuan to make tea and bring it in.

Xiao Xuan took a sip of tea, nodded and said, "This tea is good, I can't imagine that you, a casual person, still have good tea at home." ”

Room Fang smiled and said: "The Queen Mother still doesn't understand the political order, my third brother has three hobbies, first, he likes to clean, don't look at his dome is shabby, but clean up." ”

Xiao Xuan nodded and said: "This is not bad, he is also the most particular among the courtiers, this is all learned from my father, but then again, he did not learn to wear clothes and hats." ”

Xiao Xuan's words made everyone laugh.

Mu Fang said: "The second order of government affairs is to like reading, you look at those boxes, don't think that there are any treasures hidden, all some broken books." ”

Yelu Longxu said: "Some people secretly call the government order a bookworm, forgetting to sleep and eating, not letting go of the book, and reading books for a while before the early dynasty. I didn't believe it, but a few times I saw it, and what I said was true. ”

The ministers also echoed and said that what the emperor said was good, and the government decree was indeed read a little earlier, which was admirable.

Han Derang said: "Don't make fun of adults, I'm just used to it, like a general's sword, I don't have a book in my hand, my heart is not settled, and I am very panicked." ”

Mu Fang said: "The government decree likes to drink tea, and when you come to his house, it's not strange that there is no wine or meat, but good tea can make you drink enough." ”

Some ministers said, "What don't you like about the decree?" ”

Then someone said: "I don't think the most important thing about the political order is women, the political order is in a high position, nearly half a hundred years old, and there is no woman around him, it seems that the political order is either disgusted with women, or afraid of women." ”

Then someone said: "This is not necessarily, maybe there is a confidante hidden somewhere in the political order." ”

Mu Fang immediately straightened his face and said: "Hugh wants to talk nonsense, the emperor and the queen mother are here, how dare they be so presumptuous?" ”

Xiao Xuan's face was a little ugly, but he still said: "It's okay, everyone also cares about political affairs." ”

At this time, several carriages came full of goods, and soon, a huge tent was erected in front of Han Derang's dome, which suddenly compared Han Derang's dome to Han Derang's dome. Next to that tent, Han Derang's vault stood beside the rich man like a man named Hanako. The tent is surrounded by dragons and cockroaches, and the colorful embroidery is brilliant, the silver canopy roof, the golden pillar, the colorful embroidered frieze, and the brocade garment, under the sun, the tent looks brilliant and bright.

The waiter is in the tent, setting up a table, laying out a brocade stool, and putting food and wine on the table.

Xiao Sui looked at Han Derang and said, "How is it?" Host, please take a seat. ”

Han Derang was amazed and invited everyone to sit down. Holding a wine glass, he said a lot of apologetic words.

Mu Fang said: "Third brother, polite words will be waived, if you have the heart, you will toast a glass of wine to the queen mother, the emperor and all your colleagues in turn, which can be regarded as reparation." ”

Han Derang hurriedly said yes, and really raised the wine glass to toast one by one, only to get himself drunk.

Xiao Sui was also very happy, seeing that Han Derang's injury was almost healed, she was relieved, and her hanging heart finally landed. She was in Han Derang's vault, although the vault was very simple, but she felt that she was wrapped in a warm feeling, this place was still familiar to her, although some of those things had faded their color, some of them had been badly worn, but they were still in their original place, as if they had never been moved, so that she could reach them.

At the banquet, Xiao Xuan also drank a lot of wine, and said a lot of words, so much so that after the banquet was dispersed, she suggested that everyone play Shuanglu together, so the drunkard became a gambler, and the monarch and the minister shouted five and six together, and made a fuss with red eyes until midnight, until Han De let the wine wake up.
