Chapter 13: The Court Returns Home

Zhong Lichun glanced at Zhao Ruomei and Chen, and also stepped forward and said, "Father, although the second lady is at fault, please spare her for the sake of the eldest brother!" ”

Zhao Zhongquan frowned and said, "She hurt you three times and twice, why do you still intercede for her!" ”

Zhong Lichun smiled slightly, "Father, isn't my daughter okay now?" I asked my father to let the second lady go. ”

Zhao Zhongquan's face widened, and he said: "Yan'er is kind-hearted and generous, so just look at Yan'er's face, spare her once, if there is a next time, she will be held responsible." ”

Chen glanced at her, saluted Zhao Zhongquan, and returned to his yard with Zhao Ruomei's support.

Zhao Ruomei cried: "Mother, what should we do now, my father listened to the words of the little slut and wanted to put my mother to death." It's better to call my brother home to discuss how to deal with that little slut next. ”

Chen sighed, "Okay, that's the only way, I'll repair the book and send someone to send it, and tell your eldest brother to go home quickly." ”

Zhong Lichun accompanied Ding to talk for a while, got up to salute his parents, and returned to Qingya Garden. Xiaoli and Xiaomei said: "Miss, the second lady has slandered your innocence, why are you interceding for the second lady!" ”

Zhong Lichun shook his head and said nothing, even if he didn't intercede, the Chen family didn't have to worry about his life, at most the punishment was heavier, why didn't he be a favor! Besides, Jun Mowen had warned her last night that if the Chen mother and daughter were smarter, they would stop. I don't want to embarrass her, if she continues like this, it will be easy to take her life by himself.

Zhao Ruoting, who was studying in the capital, received Chen's letter and hurriedly asked for leave from the academy and rushed home on the Qiqiao Festival.

Zhong Lichun heard that Xiao Li was coming to report, saying that the young master was back, and the master invited the young lady to the front hall, so he took the two rings and walked quickly to the front hall, and saw a young man, dressed as a scholar, and Zhao Zhongquan was talking about the ceremony after the closure.

Zhong Lichun's footsteps were paused, his heart was bitter, and after sealing the ceremony, Xia Yingchun finally couldn't wait to ascend to the throne of the queen. Oh, ......, I want to fight for ten years by myself, in exchange for the peace of the whole country, but what I get is a humiliating crime, and I die unjustly, I am unwilling! Boundless hatred gradually gathered in his eyes, and a fierce momentum involuntarily exuded.

Zhao Zhongquan and Zhao Ruoting, who were talking, suddenly felt a coercion rushing towards them, and they couldn't help but shudder, and when they looked up, they saw Zhong Lichun walking in from outside.

Zhong Lichun smiled lightly, collected the momentum on his body, and blessed Zhao Zhongquan, "Father, eldest brother, you're back!" ”

Zhao Ruoting looked at this beautiful little girl, I haven't seen her for two years, the little girl has grown a lot taller, although her face is immature, it has begun to emerge, and in another two years, she will be a beautiful woman. For this sister, Zhao Ruoting is nothing, but her mother Chen and sister Zhao Ruomei are not allowed to her.

Zhao Ruoting shook his head, took out a jasper plum blossom hairpin and handed it to Zhong Lichun and said with a smile: "After a few years, the little sister has grown up, slim and beautiful, and the foolish brother brought a hairpin to the little sister, I hope you like it." ”

Zhong Lichun took the hairpin and said with a smile: "Thank you, big brother, this hairpin sister likes it tightly." ”

Zhao Ruoting smiled, "It's good to like it." ”

Zhong Lichun hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is there anything interesting or important happening in the capital eldest brother, can you tell the younger sister." ”

Zhao Ruoting glanced at her and said with a smile: "When did my little sister like to listen to these gossip." ”

Zhong Lichun smiled lightly, "It's good to listen more and gain more knowledge, it's very boring to be bored at home all day." ”

Zhao Ruoting smiled, "If you want to talk about major events, there have been two recent incidents in the capital, one is the former queen Zhong Lichun's loss of morality, and the second is the post-sealing ceremony a month later." ”

Zhong Lichun pretended to be excited and pulled Zhao Ruoting and said, "Tell me about the former queen." ”

Zhao Ruoting said with a smile: "When the former queen returned to Beijing, a few of our book friends happened to be drinking in the restaurant, and their appearance was mediocre, but the momentum was dignified and extraordinary, noble and honorable, and it was impossible to say that she had an affair with the guards." I'm afraid that there is another deep meaning, in the deep palace, there are many people who are red-eyed. And even if it is really immoral, if the king has some affection for her, he will never be publicly executed in the court, a glass of poisoned wine and a white silk are enough to kill her, so why bother to make a big fuss, lest the world not know. Stigmatization. ”

Zhong Lichun was silent for a long time and said, "Is this the personal opinion of the eldest brother, or the opinion of the majority?" ”

Zhao Ruoting said with a smile: "A few of our book friends, that's not what I said, it's a pity that a woman with great achievements in war did not die on the battlefield, but died innocently in the harem battle." It's a shame that she's talented. ”

Zhong Lichun was sad and silent, yes, he had fought on the battlefield all his life, and he was covered in scars, but in the end he was so humiliated as death, it was really not worth it for himself. Fortunately, the eyes of the world are like torches, and they also know that they have been wronged.

Zhao Ruoting couldn't help but feel strange when she saw her gloomy expression, and asked, "Little sister, what's wrong with you." ”

Zhong Lichun reluctantly smiled and said, "It's nothing, I'm just not worth it for that queen." ”

Zhao Ruoting said: "Who said it wasn't, just because of his mediocre appearance, he was blind and talented." ”

Zhong Lichun was a little relieved when he heard this, his eyes were bright, and he said with a smile: "Then the eldest brother will tell me how the current queen is." ”

Zhao Ruoting sneered, "There is no virtue in appearance, and it is bewitching and confusing the lord." ”

Zhong Lichun smiled after hearing this, he had a little more affection for Zhao Ruoting, and dared to criticize the current queen bluntly, and he was still a decent gentleman. also looked at him differently.

Zhong Lichun chatted for a while, and found that Zhao Ruoting's personality was completely different from Zhao Ruomei, and he was not similar to Chen, but very similar to Zhao Zhongquan. He is hearty and heroic. There are no such tricks.

Zhong Lichun knew this, so he said goodbye to Zhao Zhongquan and Zhao Ruoting and returned to the attic.

Zhao Ruoting sat for a while, said goodbye to Zhao Zhongquan, came to Chen's backyard, and after giving Chen's gift, he couldn't help but be startled when he saw her like this, and asked, "Mother, why are you so embarrassed." ”

Chen's face was full of resentment, and he said hatefully, "It's all the little slut who harmed you, Ting'er, it's good if you come back, you quickly find a way to get rid of that little slut." ”

Zhao Ruoting was stunned for a moment, the little smile flashed in front of her eyes, she shook her head and said, "Mother, sister, little sister is kind-hearted and gentle, why do you have to go against her." Can't you get along? Why do you have to make it your life and death? ”

Zhao Ruomei sneered: "Brother, I was stunned by that little slut, and I actually spoke for her, but it was not arranged for us." ”

Chen also said: "Ting'er, we are our biological bloodline, why do you speak for others, if it weren't for that little slut, whose lover sneaked into the house late at night and cut off my ears and fingers, why would my mother be so unbearable." ”
