Chapter 198: He'll Help Us
Zhan Xinlan ran to a place in the garden and cried softly, and at this moment, a man in a dark robe walked slowly.
"Who are you? How can you cry here? The man said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Zhan Xinlan wiped the tears on her face and raised her eyes to look at the man in front of her, although this man was already middle-aged, he did not look old at all, but was more attractive.
"Who are you? Why are you secretly watching me cry here? Zhan Xinlan wiped the tears on her face and complained.
"This king is the king of respect, and he is the brother of the emperor. Who are you, and why are you crying here? Look at which lady you are wearing, this king has never seen you. ”
"It turned out to be His Royal Highness King Jing, I am the daughter of the Zhan family, and my father is Zhan Huaran, the general of Zhenyuan." Zhan Xinlan bowed slightly.
"Oh? Miss Zhan's family, it's really rude, since Miss Zhan is here, isn't General Zhenyuan also here? King Jing said softly.
"No, my father is busy with military affairs and has to guard the border passes, so naturally he can't come."
"Oh, yes, it's the king's negligence, so is the old grandfather back?"
"My grandfather is naturally coming back, do you have anything to do? So concerned about the people in my family? Zhan Xinlan wondered.
"It's nothing, when this king was young, he also fought with your uncle and your father under your grandfather's account, and now that I think about it, I really miss those days. I wonder if Miss Zhan can take this king to meet Grandpa Zhan? King Jing said with a smile.
Looking at King Jing's appearance, the smile was so warm and warm, it made Zhan Xinlan really feel indescribable for a while.
"They are all in the pavilion on the other side of the garden, I came out to breathe by myself, and asked the prince to go over by himself." Zhan Xinlan refused.
She just ran out of an awkward quarrel with her family, if she goes back like this now, won't she be looked down upon even more in the future?
"Hehe, since Miss Zhan is unhappy, you might as well talk to this king and resolve the grievances in your heart."
"I didn't suffer any grievances, I just felt that I didn't fit in with this Kyoto, and there was no place for me at all." Zhan Xinlan lowered her eyes and said.
"Haven't you been wronged? So why is a person crying here? Tell me, who bullied you, this king will support you. King Jing said softly.
Zhan Xinlan came to Kyoto these days, no one has ever spoken to her like this, on weekdays, seeing King Rui so doted on Princess Rui, her heart is very envious, I can't imagine that someone cares about herself so much today.
"What position does the prince think my two elder brothers should arrange when they come to Kyoto from the border pass?"
"Your two older brothers?" King Jing raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Yes, my two elder brothers have been in the border for many years and are already lieutenant generals, do you have to start from scratch in Kyoto to be looked down upon?"
"Of course not, if someone else might have to do it from scratch, but your brother is
The people of the Zhan family, the people of the Zhan family are naturally different, since they can be deputy generals at the border gates, they are also fully competent to be a general in Kyoto. Don't you know, in this Kyoto, there are a lot of rich children who just live in the army. King Jing said lightly.
Hearing this, Zhan Xinlan was overjoyed, it turned out that not all people are blind, and smart people still think that her brother should be a general.
Now, she is only the daughter of General Zhenyuan, although her status is not low, but her father is far away from the border, in Kyoto, there is no real home for her.
If her brother could be a general and have his own mansion, then she would no longer have to act under the fence.
"It's still respectful of His Royal Highness that has a vision." Zhan Xinlan burst into tears and said with a smile.
Seeing this, King Jing raised his eyebrows slightly, it turned out that the second miss of the Zhan family was crying here because her brother was not important, the people of the Zhan family have always relied on their own hard work, especially the three sons of Zhan Huafeng, who have never had their own identities to show off their power in the army, but have entered the military camp since childhood, and have achieved their current position step by step.
The style of the Zhan family makes him very admired. I was thinking about how to get closer to the Zhan family, but I didn't expect this Zhan family lady to take the initiative to send it to the door.
"Miss Zhan doesn't have to worry, your father is General Zhenyuan, and presumably his son will not be bad. This king is now temporarily living in the post station in Kyoto, and if Miss Zhan needs this king's help, come to the post station to find me. After finishing speaking, King Jing also took out a token from his arms and handed it to Zhan Xinlan.
Zhan Xinlan took the token, with a respectful character written on it, and then said lightly: "Doesn't the prince have a mansion in Kyoto?" ”
"Hehe, this king's fief is not in Kyoto, and he came to Kyoto just to stay temporarily, but this king also plans to stay in Kyoto for a long time, after all, there are still many old friends of this king here." After speaking, King Jing walked away.
Zhan Xinlan looked around, and when she was sure that there was no one nearby, she put the token in her arms. This King Jing is a prince anyway, maybe he can really help her brother?
If this is really the case, then she can live in her brother's mansion in the future, and she will not have to be controlled in the Dingguo Mansion.
Zhan Tianfang beat Zhan Xinlan just now, and he felt very guilty in his heart, after all, this sister has been guarding their favor since she was a child, if she wasn't afraid that he would talk nonsense just now, he would definitely be reluctant to beat this sister.
When Zhan Tianfang found Zhan Xinlan, he stepped forward, "Xinlan, don't blame my brother, my brother was also in a hurry just now, you have to understand, we are just coming to Kyoto now, and we only rely on the Dingguo Mansion, you have to let go of your young lady's temper." ”
"yes, I see. I'm not mad at you anymore. Zhan Xinlan said obediently.
"Xinlan, are you doing well in King Rui's Mansion?"
"It's fine. King Rui and Yun Xin are very good to me, but, after all, it is not my home, I am in King Rui's Mansion, and I have always been under the fence.
Zhan Xinlan lowered her eyes.
Hearing this, Zhan Tianfang was also a little distressed, was it right or wrong for them to follow their grandfather back at the beginning?
"Xinlan, otherwise, let's go back to the border together, that's our home." Zhan Tian said in a deep voice.
"No, I don't want to go back, why is this prosperity in Kyoto only available in Zhan Xinyue? I'm also the child of the Zhan family, and I'm also the daughter-in-law, why can't I? Brother, why don't we ask King Jing for help? With King Jing's help, you and your second brother don't have to start as soldiers. Zhan Xinlan grabbed Zhan Tianfang's arm and said.
"What? Respect for the king? How did you meet King Jing? ”
"King Jing said that she and her father and uncle used to work together under her grandfather's account, and she had a deep friendship with her father and uncle." Zhan Xinlan said happily.
"I've heard my dad talk about this, but it's just ...... It is not known why this king would say this to you. Zhan Tian frowned.
For this Jing Wang, he has also heard some rumors about this Jing Wang, saying that this Jing Wang is very helpful, in her own fiefdom, she is very good to the people there, and even personally went to the fields to plow the land, and when the grain harvest is not harvested, she also took out her own grain to help the victims.
Such a helpful person should have no bad intentions, not to mention, Zhan Xinlan is just the daughter of General Zhenyuan, she is a person who has no roots in Kyoto, what reason can he care so much?
"Big brother, don't think so much, I believe that King Jing sincerely wants to help us, otherwise you go to meet King Jing tomorrow to see what he has to say, if he makes any excessive requests, we won't agree." Zhan Xinlan said hurriedly.
At this moment, a little eunuch walked towards this side, "Master Zhan, Miss Zhan, the banquet is about to start, please hurry up and go to the main hall, so as not to be late for a while." ”
"Okay, thank you little father-in-law, let's go over." Zhan Tian said with a smile.
"Okay, please follow the minions." After speaking, the little eunuch walked out of the garden with Zhan Tianfang and Zhan Xinlan.
Coming to the top of the main hall, most of the people have already sat down according to their titles, Zhan Lao Guogong and Mrs. Zhan Tai are sitting at a table, and the position next to them is the author Dingguo Gong and Zhan Zhao. Their children sat behind them.
Looking at the other side, Rui Wang and Gu Yunxin sat in the first row, both of them had shallow smiles on their faces, and their talented and beautiful appearance made people look very envious.
"The emperor has arrived...... The Queen Mother drove to ...... The queen drove to ......," Father-in-law Zhang sang loudly.
Hearing the voice, everyone knelt down to greet them, and the emperor wore a bright yellow dragon robe, and slowly walked in with the queen mother wearing dark red embroidered colorful phoenix clothes.
"Long live the emperor, long live, the queen mother, thousand years old, thousand years old."
"Let's all be even, today is a happy day, everyone don't be restrained,
Especially you juniors, it's better to be lively, don't be old-fashioned. The Queen Mother said with a smile.
"Yes, Queen Mother."
"The queen mother, the son congratulates the queen mother on her longevity and health, and her youth will last forever." King An stepped forward and said with a smile.
"You're still young, you kid, you're really talking out of tune." The Queen Mother said with a smile.
"Originally, the queen mother was young and beautiful, and what her son said was the truth. Right, Brother Huang! King An hurriedly looked at the emperor who was seated and said.
"Yes, yes, yes, Queen Mother, Brother An, that's right, my son also hopes that you will stay young forever." The Emperor said with a smile.
"Okay, as long as your brothers are harmonious, the family will be happy, and the mourning family has nothing to worry about." The Queen Mother said with a smile.
"The Queen Mother, the son knows that you like the Buddha very much, this sheep fat jade net bottle is a birthday gift from the son to the queen mother, and I hope the queen mother will not dislike it." King Jing held a fine sheep fat jade bottle and said.
"King Jing has a heart, Xiaokangzi, quickly accept it for the mourning family, and when I return to the palace in a while, I will put it in the Bodhisattva like money." The Queen Mother said with a smile.
King Jing returned to his seat and glanced at Zhan Xinlan, Zhan Xinlan smiled slightly, she said hello to King Jing, and all this naturally fell into the eyes of others......
