750: Homecoming
Nalan Jinxiu and Zong Xuanyi rode together, and she had only now recovered from the fear of death. Seeing that the two were intimate, he said in a low voice: "Men and women don't kiss, please let me go." ”
Zong Xuanyi pretended not to hear her words, but still encircled her in his arms and whispered, "Do you think this matter is over?"
"Meng Ying is under your command, and the entire palace is under your control, isn't it over?"
Zong Xuanyi suddenly laughed, his voice was not loud, but he couldn't hide his pleasure: "Do you know who you killed yourself, and you really should have killed a cat and a dog?"
Nalan Jinxiu frowned: "You mean this matter is not over yet?"
"Meng Ying is not mentally strong, and he will go to whichever side is profitable. After he returns to the palace, the Queen Mother can pick him out and correct you with a few words. ”
"King Hui is dead, can the Queen Mother still control the government?"
Zong Xuanyi hummed lightly and said with a smile: "It's not stupid." ”
Nalan Jinxiu suddenly thought that King Hui had a son, so he raised him by the queen mother's side. The child is only seven or eight years old, and if he inherits the unification, the queen mother will listen to the government.
King Hui was expelled from Jinling, but in the end he was able to fight back, the main reason was the guidance of the Queen Mother. When the Queen Mother was still a young lady, she could already influence the mind of the first emperor, and she was afraid that she was not a simple person.
"King Hui originally became the emperor because of rebellion, and his throne is not secure. He was like this when he was alive, and will he be able to change it after he dies?"
Zong Xuanyi sighed and told the stakes in it: "Although King Hui is not justified, aren't others the same?
Everyone is fighting to the death, and their vitality is already greatly damaged, and it is best to control the children of seven or eight years old, but those people will definitely take this opportunity to recuperate.
They thought that it was easy to control a child, and they could coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes. But they don't know that the people who really call the shots will not only not be controlled by them, but will control them. The Queen Mother's methods, you will understand it when you have seen it with your own eyes. ”
"Then I'm not still a dead end?" If the Queen Mother is really so powerful, and King Hui is her own son, it is impossible for her not to avenge him.
"So I have to protect you, and you have to come with me. ”
"What kind of reason are you, I didn't let you protect it!" Nalan Jinxiu still wants to go home, things have already become like this, and he always has to discuss a solution with the third brother.
Zong Xuanyi's eyes became long, he tightened his arms, and whispered: "Jin'er, this time it can be said that it is a life of nine deaths, you will give me a chance to protect you, which can be regarded as repaying the debt to you." ”
Nalan Jinxiu suddenly couldn't struggle. Those memories of the past hurt her, and it was the same for Zong Xuanyi.
"It's been so many years, and I don't hate you anymore. ”
Zong Xuanyi's body stiffened.
Nalan Jinxiu's voice was a little hoarse: "I know that you have to do that and there is a reason why you have to do it, just when is the so-called retribution, this hatred ends here." ”
Zong Xuanyi suddenly closed his eyes and felt the surging pain in his chest. For so many years, he most wanted to hear such a sentence, and she forgave him.
But when this moment really came, he didn't feel relaxed. The Zong family and the Nalan family are feuds, he paid his life because of hatred, but in the end it was her who came to see it.
"Are you saying that the grievances will be written off, and you will be strangers to me from now on?" Zong Xuanyi asked in his heart, can you start over?
"Grievances can be forgotten, but I can't accept you again, and the best I can do is to hate you anymore. Nalan Jinxiu was silent for a while when she said this, and finally said coldly: "From now on, you and I will live and die in peace." ”
Zong Xuanyi still didn't let go of her, but there was no more painful look on his face: "I'll only do this last thing for you, and I'll set you free in the future." ”
Nalan Jinxiu didn't expect that this sentence would one day make her cry for Zong Xuanyi. It was already a month after the incident, she was feeding the birds in Zong Xuanyi's courtyard, and the little maid broke in a panic.
"What's wrong?" In the past month, Nalan Jinxiu has become accustomed to life here, and she is also kind to the people.
"The master sent someone to see you off. ”
Nalan Jinxiu looked at the young man in the power suit behind him, and said in a low voice: "But where do you want to send me?"
"Subordinate Zonghe, I am ordered by my master to escort you back to the Ji Mansion. ”
With a "clang", the thing in Nalan Jinxiu's hand fell to the ground. She asked, incredulously, "You mean I can go home?"
"Yes. ”
She simply didn't even pick up anything, lifted the hem of her skirt and walked quickly to Zong He's side, and whispered, "Then let's leave now!"
After walking for a long time, Nalan Jinxiu thought that Zong Xuanyi, who would come to see her every two or three days, hadn't shown up for a few days: "Has Xiangguo been busy lately?"
"My subordinates don't know. Zong He was like a piece of wood, and his face was very stiff.
"He told you to hide it from me?"
"Xiangguo said that Ji Shoufu will naturally give you the answer. ”
Nalan Jinxiu was full of questions, the third brother and Zong Xuanyi have always been incompatible, but now the relationship has warmed up? To be honest, she is a little unable to adapt.
Probably because of her own selfishness, she felt that they were still better at-for-tat. But after thinking about it, I feel that there are no absolute friends in the official career, and naturally there are no permanent enemies.
Zong He sent her halfway through, and Ye Bing picked her up with Ruyi and a team of guards. If she cried bitterly, she really thought that the master would not be able to escape this time.
Nalan Jinxiu behaved quite calmly, she asked about the current situation of the three children, and then asked Ji Hongye.
"Since your accident, the third master hasn't slept well, and everyone has lost a lot of weight. ”
Nalan Jinxiu knew in her heart that if such a big thing happened, how could she not sleep well? The third brother must have been planning for so many days, and it is estimated that in order to protect her, he will not sleep endlessly.
They went back through the back door, and after arriving at Jinyuan, Mo Yan and Mo Yu waited for her to wash and change clothes. Although she is also clothed and fed in Zong Xuanyi's other courtyard, it is always difficult to wear the clothes he gave her after she comes back.
After washing, I changed into the white clothes I was used to wearing, and took a book to read. In the bedroom, she and her third brother shared a bookshelf, but there were only two desks.
What she was holding in her hand was a book about music and rhythm, which the third brother had marked before, so it didn't look difficult to understand. I don't know how long it took, but she heard footsteps outside and slowly stood up.
Ji Hongye had already strode across from her, looked at her from beginning to end, and finally made sure that she had lived a good life during this time, so she could be regarded as relieved.
"You've lost weight. Nalan Jinxiu looked at Ji Hongye, and felt that the degree was not enough: "I have lost a lot of weight." ”
Ji Hongye reached out and pinched her cheek: "I see that you are fat." ”
Nalan Jinxiu pursed her lips and smiled: "Eat more, move less, and feed the birds in your spare time." ”
Ji Hongye was immediately amused by her: "You mean to slip away." ”
"I didn't do anything deliberately, I just said it casually. ”
Ji Hongye shook his head helplessly: "Eccentric." ”
Nalan Jinxiu walked around from behind the desk, stood still in front of Ji Hongye, and looked at him with a half-upturned Ruyu cheek: "I haven't seen you for a long time, shouldn't you hug me at this time?"
"Silly girl. Ji Hongye stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms and whispered: "It's back, do you know that these days, I can't even sleep, and I've been worried about your safety." ”
"Did you reach any agreement with Zong Xuanyi?"
"Yes. Ji Hongye didn't intend to hide it from her, although Zong Xuanyi paid a lot this time, she also had the right to know the truth.
Nalan Jinxiu took his hand, let him sit on the bed, and then sat beside him by himself, and said with a sweet smile: "Then the third brother tell me about it." ”
Ji Hongye asked for tea outside, and drank one after another with an elegant posture.
Nalan Jinxiu was anxious, looking anxious beside her, she whispered, "Third brother, are you so thirsty?"
Ji Hongye looked at her lightly, with a lot of displeasure in his eyes: "I'm running around outside, just to let you come back safely as soon as possible, why do I drink more tea now, but it's in the way of your eyes?"
"I ......" Nalan Jinxiu pinched his cuffs and said, "You know that I didn't mean this, and you deliberately misinterpreted my meaning." ”
Ji Hongye saw her little daughter's grievance, and her voice softened a little: "Have you seen the child in the past?"
Nalan Jinxiu nodded: "The two of them are taking a nap, I originally wanted to wake them up, but no matter how much they tease, they slept like piglets." ”
Ji Hongye curled his lips and smiled: "You only care about your life, you don't care about your support, the child was woken up when he was sleeping, didn't he want to cry?"
Nalan Jinxiu leaned on his shoulder and said a little coquettishly: "No way, who will make my husband-in-law good." You have to govern the country outside, and you can take care of your children after you enter the inner house. ”
Ji Hongye pulled her paws down, looking a little cold: "It's only then that I think about it to please me, will it be a little late?"
"It's not too late to make amends. ”
Ji Hongye narrowed his eyes and got very close to her: "Are you beating around the bush and saying I'm a wolf?"
Nalan Jinxiu blinked innocently, and two soft arms wrapped around his neck.
Ji Hongye smelled a familiar fragrance of green bamboo, sniffed on her neck again, hugged her to his lap, and said in a hoarse voice: "Bathing?"
Nalan Jinxiu nodded, looking at him with a hippie smile.
"Why don't you always have the stabilisation?"
"Am I not steady enough in front of people? Because your status is not ordinary, I have suffered a lot in order to be your wife. It's hard to suppress your nature. ”
Ji Hongye's hand hovered on her waist: "So as soon as you come to me, are you going to reveal your true form?"
"Hmm. Nalan Jinxiu kissed his chin and smiled: "Doesn't the third brother like me?"
Ji Hongye raised his eyebrows and lowered his head to kiss her. After being separated for so long, no matter how important things are, we have to wait until this is done......
