Chapter 197: It's My Brother! (4th Update)
Prime Minister's Mansion, Hall.
"Gongzi Ah Kun, is Jing Zhe?"
Last night, Zhu Tong also went to Wuxian Garden in advance, but he only went to inspect it as the prime minister, and when Zhu Xinning arrived at the back courtyard of Wuxian Garden, and he also felt that there was no problem, he left before the poetry meeting began.
So much so that what happened later, he did not know.
When I was young, maybe I could still be interested in poetry.
But at his age, his love for poetry is far less real than his body's tolerance, and his old body can't stand up to all-nighters.
He got up early in the morning today, and Zhu Xinning didn't come back, so he went to the court alone.
In the court, he heard the news that Qi Junguang, the third prince of Southern Qi, had lost the poetry meeting, and also knew that Ah Kun was Jing Zhe, and he was also Jing Zhe, the son of Jing Wenmao!
This still has a great impact on him.
At the beginning, he and Jing Wenmao were officials in the same dynasty, and because of their similar tempers, they had a very close relationship, which was why he would help adopt a righteous daughter when Jing Wenmao was demoted.
But in his heart, he was haunted by his inaction when Jing Wenmao was killed, and even became a heart disease, and after suddenly hearing the deceased, his mood was mixed.
He didn't remember much about what he had said.
When he got home, he quickly called Zhu Xinning over.
At this time, Mrs. Zhu was also in the front hall, and there was also Chen Jiannan, like a piece of dog skin plaster, glued to the Zhu family.
Zhu Xinning nodded, with a happy smile in his eyes, and Chen Jiannan next to him looked at it, envious and jealous.
And Mrs. Zhu still felt a little abrupt when she heard this name.
"Who is Jing Zhe?"
"It's my brother!"
Zhu Xinning held her head high and was very proud.
"Did my sister call me?"
At this time, Zhu Tangwen ran in from outside at a trot, hugged Zhu Xinning's thighs and shook and asked.
Chen Jiannan watched this scene and almost drooled.
This is the pinnacle of your life, little boy!
Zhu Xinning leaned down and patted his little face: "The younger brother my sister said is called Jing Zhe, you are my sister's little brother!" ”
The little guy looked at Zhu Xinning, although he didn't understand the difference between his younger brother and his younger brother, he always felt that someone seemed to be coming to rob his sister from him.
The mouth grinned, and he cried.
Mrs. Zhu hurriedly came over and picked him up, glared at Zhu Xinning fiercely, and then raised her voice and asked, "If I remember correctly, this Jing Zhe you are talking about is the son of Jing Wenmao, right?" ”
For Mrs. Zhu calling Jing Wenmao's name, Zhu Xinning frowned, but still nodded, "Exactly!" ”
"Hehe, I thought they went to the kind of place in Pengzhou where birds don't, and they won't come back in this life!"
Mrs. Zhu said with some disdain: "It seems that no one asks about the poor in the downtown area, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains!" I'm coming to Jingzhou to look for you now, are you here to take refuge in our rich family? ”
Mrs. Zhu is a woman, and she doesn't know much about national affairs, especially Jing Zhe just became famous last night, and she didn't go out for a day, so naturally she didn't know.
For Mrs. Zhu's meanness, Zhu Xinning has a deep understanding.
But she is grateful that the Zhu family adopted her at the beginning, and she has been in the Zhu family for more than ten years, even if Mrs. Zhu speaks coldly on weekdays, she will not bother back.
But this time, she was unusual.
Say I can, say my brother, no!
"Mother, Zhe'er has been coming to Jingzhou for a while, and he hasn't taken the initiative to come to me, if he hadn't participated in the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting last night, I wouldn't have known that he had already come! And with his talents, he won't come to me! ”
Zhu Xinning tilted his head, and when he talked about Jing Zhe, he was extremely proud and firm.
"Hehe, who can say for sure? Maybe I didn't find you? Maybe you can't get into the Prime Minister's Mansion? Now that I know about you, I'm afraid I'm going to come to the door soon, right? ”
Mrs. Zhu continued to sneer.
"Mother is too worried!"
Zhu Xinning bit her lip, fortunately she didn't bring Jing Zhe back directly today, it didn't matter if she was bullied, she was afraid that he would be sad to see this scene.
"Zhe'er is sensible, and he is quite talented, he is very busy every day, and he was summoned to the palace by His Majesty alone before participating in the poetry meeting, and he also started a royal business with His Majesty! Even if I invite him over, he may not have time! ”
"Oops! Was he summoned to the palace by His Majesty? ”
Mrs. Zhu seemed to have heard a big joke, and pointed to Chen Jiannan, who was standing aside.
"Look at Jiannan, his appearance is talented and high, he didn't get the first place in the entrance examination and was not summoned to the palace by His Majesty, why, your younger brother is powerful all over the world? Isn't it, Jiannan? ”
Obviously, Mrs. Zhu didn't believe Zhu Xinning's words.
And Chen Jiannan, who was next to him, heard this and was silent, which could be regarded as an indirect agreement.
This made Zhu Xinning very angry: "My Zhe'er won't be so idle, and he has nothing to do everywhere!" Even if I wanted him to come to the house, he wouldn't have time! ”
“……”
Isn't this just saying that he is an idler, and he runs to Zhu's house every day when he has nothing to do?
Chen Jiannan, who had been eating melons silently, almost choked to death when he heard this, saying that he was very hurt.
"Hmph, don't call him either!"
After Mrs. Zhu finished speaking, she turned her head to look at Zhu Tong, who had been silent, "Master, you have to think about this matter!" ”
"Jing Wenmao offended the King of Jin himself, and being demoted to Pengzhou was already taking care of him! And the lord helped him—"
Speaking of this, he glanced at Zhu Xinning, and seemed to be talking about the adoption of Zhu Xinning in the first place.
"I almost got involved! Fortunately, the old man is wise enough to protect himself, and it took so many years to achieve his current position, and he must not destroy his future for such an outsider! ”
She deliberately bit the word "outsider" very hard, and after Zhu Xinning heard it, her shoulders shrugged angrily, but she had nothing to say.
"It's not what you think!"
Zhu Tong finally spoke: "The old man has indeed achieved this position without helping anyone or offending anyone over the years, but he will never be afraid that the son of an old friend will affect his career!" ”
"Besides, King Jin has already gone to Jinxi, and this matter has passed for more than ten years, who cares? It's you who are overthinking! ”
After speaking, he looked at Zhu Xinning again: "Today... Forget it, it's too late today, you go and talk to Jing Zhe tomorrow and ask him to come to the house for dinner in the evening! Since you have come to Jingzhou, there are so many rooms at home, what kind of system is it to live outside? ”
"Thank you, Dad!"
Zhu Xinning lowered her head, but she didn't have much of a smile, a touch of tenacity crossed her eyes, and she seemed to have figured out many things.
And Chen Jiannan, who was next to him, was even more injured when he heard this.
He has been in Jingzhou for a longer time than Jing Zhe, and he has come to Zhu's house twice, why is he not treated so well?
Hey, people are more angry than people!!
