"When Ming Heng wrote this poem last night, was His Highness so shocked that he fell to the ground?"

Early the next morning, Zhao Hanyan sat on the edge of the bed and tidied up his clothes, and when he heard Zhang Xiangqi gather with the scholars of Muyue Mountain Residence last night, he covered his mouth and laughed.

Lying on the bed, Zhang Xiang, who was lying sideways, supported his head with one hand: "I don't know if he has five bodies thrown to the ground, anyway, he looks quite surprised." ”

Zhao Hanyan turned around: "He has eyes above the top, no one in his eyes, he has always looked down on any Rao, he has always felt that he is the most powerful, and readers belong to the category of nerds in his eyes." ”

"Isn't it! I think he still respects reading and raoing! Zhang Xiang said curiously.

Zhao Hanyan shook his head: "That was the change he made after he was crowned the crown prince, in Gao Ping's opinion, he was just used to win people's hearts, but in fact, it was still like that in his bones." Ming Heng didn't know, I listened to the eunuchs around him back then, and he also quietly scolded Liu Xiang as an old horseman, and scolded the ministers of the Purple Palace Pavilion around his father for being bookmakers, because his father originally didn't want to make him the prince, and felt that his character was worse, and he was not the best candidate for the prince, and the best candidate for the prince in his father's heart was actually the second prince Zhao Qi, the second prince was benevolent, Liu Xiang and the ministers of the Purple Palace Pavilion wanted to recommend the second prince, so he scolded these people. ”

"Then why was it him again?" Zhang Xiang was very interested and asked puzzled.

"Because of Master Chen!" Zhao Hanyan stretched out his hand and gently flicked the sideburns in his ears, got up and put the folded clothes into the closet, and then picked one and walked over, asked Zhang Xiang to get up, and put it on Zhang Xiang, who was sitting up: "Taishi Chen pushed him, and he also went to the palace to find his father twice for this reason, and then for some reason, many ministers in the court who originally supported the second prince also tended to recommend him. ”

It seems that this Taishi Chen is indeed in power in the court!

can actually influence the emperor's thoughts.

Zhang Xiang thought to himself.

Zhao Hanyan said again: "This Zhao Zhe, the method of yang and yin is very good, my father values scholars, and the status of reading Rao is quite high in my Nanchu, he is now the prince, how dare he be rude to scholars on the surface, isn't it that he is uncomfortable!" ”

"So Ming Heng is with this His Highness, you can't be careless and deceived by his appearance, you have to show 12 points of caution." Zhao Hanyan reminded again.

After getting dressed, Zhang Xiang, who was neatly dressed, pulled her to sit in front of the bronze mirror, combed her hair, stopped talking about it, and changed the topic: "By the way, the slave's birthday is the eighth day of the fourth month!" ”

"Well, on the eighth day of the fourth month, the slave will be sixteen." Zhao Hanyan in the bronze mirror nodded lightly.

Zhang Xiang said: "When I was in Rongxian, I promised her, and when she passed her sixteenth birthday, I would take her back to her hometown and move the bones of her parents who died on the road back to Yingzhou for burial. This is her wish, very early, this girl has been to me, so I feel that her filial piety has to help her complete, what does Gao Ping think of this? ”

"Okay!" Zhao Hanyan turned his head and agreed: "This is a good thing, this girl has been with Gao Ping for so long, and she hasn't done anything for her, if this is her wish, she must help her complete it." ”

Zhang Xiang pulled her head back: "So you agreed?" ”

"Promised." Zhao Hanyan smiled and nodded: "This girl followed me from the palace to the princess's mansion, and then to Pingzhou, it's been six years, Gao Ping really hasn't heard of her about it, I didn't expect her to have such a wish in her heart." ”

Zhang Xiang smiled: "That's because she doesn't dare to talk to you, she is a slave, what right does she have to do this to you, a princess?" Even if it's enough, who will do it for her? As a princess, you can't go by yourself! Even if you send someone, it's really inappropriate, and she is uneasy without someone she trusts by her side. And she is a girl, and she is not capable of doing it, so before, in her opinion, there is no hope for this matter to be completed, so it will not be done. ”

"Alas, it's also a bitter girl, it's sad to bury such a thing in your heart for so many years and can't complete it." Zhao Hanyan nodded lightly in understanding: "I didn't expect her to come out to Ming Heng." ”

Zhang Xiang said: "She didn't take the initiative to follow me, I asked her, not long after we got married last year, didn't you let her take care of me by my side!" At that time, in the house, she was the only one who could talk to me, so I asked her where she was sparing, and she did, and this girl was very sad at that time, crying vigorously, and I sympathized with her, so I took her back to help her fulfill this wish if I had the chance. It wasn't until a few days ago in Rong County that I promised her that I would take her back as soon as her sixteenth birthday was over. ”

Zhao Hanyan said: "If Ming Heng can help her complete it, she will be very grateful in her heart, and blame Gao Ping, she cares too little about her on weekdays, although she treats her as a sister, she never knows that there is such a thing in her heart." ”

"This girl is sensible, you have enough things in your heart, she just doesn't want to increase your troubles, so she doesn't want to treat you."

"Gao Ping doesn't have anything on his mind!"

"The year she was in the palace with you, she told me about your situation, she was in the palace, she was very lonely, she didn't like to laugh at all, no one played with you, and those people didn't dare to take the initiative to talk to you, after she entered the palace, because she didn't know much about the rules of the palace, so there were not so many taboos, and it was because of this that you liked her and kept her by your side."

"Has she had so many things with Ming Heng?" Zhao Hanyan smiled in a low voice.

"Of course." Zhang Xiang smiled proudly: "In front of me, what secrets can she hide from me?" This girl is simple, kind, and has a hard life, and when she sees your situation in the palace, she also deeply resonates, she knows that although you are a princess, your life is not happy. The difference between her and you is that she is optimistic, can face life with a smile, can leave all the unhappiness behind first, and live the life in front of her, because thinking too much will only add to her troubles, and it will not have any effect. ”

"You really have to learn from her." , Zhang Xiang quipped.

Zhao Hanyan in the bronze mirror pursed his lips: "Is this the reason why Ming Heng has always treated Gao Ping as before?" Even if Gao Ping is cold to Ming Heng and doesn't care about Ming Heng, so Ming Heng is still so good to Gao Ping? ”

Seeing that her mood fluctuated slightly, Zhang Xiang thought for a while and nodded: "It's okay, after all, you never talked to me before, I only know more about you through my slaves, you are hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, otherwise you wouldn't have promised my father to marry me in order to save me, a really indifferent person will not think about others, since you can think of sacrificing your own happiness and saving my life, then your heart must be kind, but you just feel that fate is unfair to you, so you behave like that, that's just an attitude of your protection of yourself." So no matter how good you are to me, I feel that this is your right, I naturally don't blame you, with the fact that you can sacrifice yourself and save me, even if you are cold to me for the rest of your life, then I will be good to you for the rest of my life, this is the only thing I can repay you, and it is also the attitude I want to show, as for what you will do, I don't know. ”

Zhao Hanyan's eyes turned red.

Zhang Xiang continued: "But people's hearts need to be understood through getting along, I know that you are a kind person, so I believe that as long as I do my best and do what I can do to you, there will always be one you who will understand me and open your heart to me, as long as you understand me, you will no longer be cold to me." Facts have proved that my approach is right, between people, we have to be considerate of each other, if you can't understand, then you will become enemies, the distance will be farther and farther away, we are already husband and wife, between husband and wife, why should we be enemies? As a husband and wife, you shouldn't let the distance get farther and farther away, after all, husband and wife are going to live together for a lifetime, if you ignore me for a lifetime, I ignore you, and no one is willing to give in, then how can you live? It's too tiring to live like that, and I don't like it anyway. ”

"Ming Heng..." Zhao Hanyan turned around and gently hugged his waist.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Xiang was puzzled.

Zhao Hanyan closed his eyes: "Gao Ping was ignorant before, so Ming Heng took great pains, if there was no Ming Heng's understanding, you and I would not be like now." ”

Zhang Xiang tied up her long hair and said with a smile: "That's also if you can open your heart to me, if you keep closing yourself, I can't do it, so this is the result of the joint efforts of our husband and wife, a complete family, husband and wife, both are indispensable, and we have maintained this family together." ”

"Knock Knock"

Just when the two couples were so emotional, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Zhang Xiang also finally tied up her long hair and inserted a hairpin.

"I'll open the door." Zhang Xiang said.

Zhao Hanyan let go of him.

After opening the door, there was a maid outside the door, and she saluted Zhang Xiang respectfully: "Donkey, Mr. Du asks to see." ”

Zhang Xiang nodded: "You go down first, I'll go over immediately." ”

Then he walked back, bent down and kissed Zhao Hanyan on the forehead: "Then I'll go first." ”

Coming to the main hall, Mr. Du Boguang was waiting with tea and water.

Now he is managing the workshops on the other side of the Lao Long River, because of the convenience, so he has lived there directly since November last year.

He got up and saluted Zhang Xiang.

Zhang Xiang motioned for him to sit down, and said with a smile: "Why is Mr. Du free to come over, the workshop is running okay, right?" ”

Du Boguang nodded: "Although it is not as busy as last winter, it can still support it for a while, and now the workshop has also lowered its output, does not make excess inventory, and minimizes losses." It's just that the yellow shopkeeper will come to the old slave every once in a while to complain, and the business is getting worse and worse. ”

Zhang Xiang said with a smile: "Don't worry about him over there, I've been with him, no matter how bad this business is, at least it can last for half a year, even if you can't make money, you can't lose money, this can also put a little pressure on him, everyone is cooperative, you can't let us do everything, he picks up the cheap himself, and it is time for him to use his brains." ”

"The horse has to be, so the old slave has always ignored him." Du Boguang also laughed.

Zhang Xiang said: "Mr. Nadu came over this time, what else is going on?" ”

Du Boguang pondered for a moment and said, "Don Ma, last night, the mother of the son of Nakang moved away from Qingguang Courtyard. ”

"Moved out?" Zhang Xiang was taken aback.

Since Wei Lie left Pingzhou last year, the clue to find out what is wrong between Wei Lie and Mrs. Kang has been broken, and Zhang Xiang no longer has the heart to pay attention.

Just let Du Boguang pay attention when he has something to do.

But all this time, there has been no news.

I didn't expect the news brought by Du Boguang so suddenly this time.

Du Boguang continued: "Last night, the old slave saw a few carriages coming to the gate of Qingguang Courtyard, and then some subordinates took out many boxes from Qingguang Courtyard and put them into the carriage. ”

Zhang Xiang frowned, and many question marks popped up in his mind, how could this old lady Kang suddenly move away? Where is she going? The Kang family has declined, and the only male is Kang Gongzi, and Kang Gongzi is in Pingzhou City, where else can this Mrs. Kang go?

He asked Du Boguang: "Has this old lady Kang moved back to Kangfu?" ”

Du Boguang shook his head: "After the old man Kang left the carriage, the old slave sent two clever guys to follow, but I didn't expect these two guys to be discovered, and they were beaten by the people accompanying Mrs. Kang, and came back with a blue nose and swollen face. ”

"Where's Gongzi Kang?"

"Then the old slave doesn't know."

"Mr. Du, you go back to Laolonghe first! I'll come back later. ”

After Du Boguang left, Zhang Xiang took Lin Feihong, first went to Mingshe, found Chen Qi, and asked Chen Qi to go to Kangfu to see if Kang Gongzi was still in Kangfu, and then took Lin Feihong to Laolonghe.

For some reason, he suddenly had an ominous blessing

It's weird after all.

The Kang family's family business is all in Pingzhou City, and there is no place to go, since this old lady Kang has not returned to Kangfu, where can she go?

took Lin Feihong to Laolong River, Du Boguang had been waiting for a long time.

He took Zhang Xiang to see the gate of Qingguang Temple, and sure enough, the gate had been locked with a brand-new lock.

Lin Feihong wanted to use brute force to break the lock, but was stopped by Zhang Xiang: "We are not robbers, don't spare the lock if it is broken, but it is not good at all." ”

"How do you get in?" Lin Feihong asked.

Zhang Xiang glanced at the courtyard wall: "There." ”

Then Lin Feihong jumped in.

Zhang Xiang was dumbfounded: "Can't you get me up first?" ”

It took a long time for Zhang Xiang to climb to the courtyard wall with the help of Du Boguang and a few guys, and then with a 'poof', he fell directly to the grass in the courtyard

He got up and rubbed his shoulders, and quickly looked in front of him.

This Qingguang Courtyard has a front yard and a back yard, and there is nothing in this front yard, only some flowers and plants are planted, and the backyard is the place to live.

Lin Feihong has long since disappeared.

He walked through the front yard door to the backyard.

At this time, the entire Qingguang Courtyard was deserted, without a trace of popularity, and a large plane tree in the middle of the backyard did not sprout in this spring for some reason, and the shriveled branches shook gently, looking like it was going to fall down at any time.

In short, the atmosphere in the whole courtyard is eerie, like a haunted house.

On the left and right sides are partial rooms, and in front of it is the main hall, the door of the main hall is open, and when Zhang Xiang walked over, Lin Feihong also walked out of it.

"How?" Zhang Xiang asked.

Lin Feihong shook his head: "I've checked it all, and it's basically been emptied, leaving only some tables and chairs and other things that can't be moved, and there are a lot of ashes burned in the brazier in the hall." ”

"Go in and have a look."

Zhang Xiang walked in.

In this main hall, in addition to the tables and chairs on both sides, there is only a half-person high Buddha statue in the center, and under the Buddha statue is the desk, and the sandalwood in the incense burner on the desk has long been burned out, and only the incense root stands alone.

Zhang Xiang walked over and kicked the brazier under the table, and the burned paper ash in it fluttered out.

Then a bead rolled out of the brazier.

Zhang Xiang bent down and picked it up...
