Chapter 171: The Academy Begins
Hearing He Jingjing's question, Zhao knew that some things were destined to be impossible to hide.
Zhao and He Dayou took a deep breath, and then Zhao spoke.
"Jingjing, you are not my biological child, your biological father is the crown prince of the previous dynasty. After Zhao finished speaking, He Huahua and He Xiaoxiao were stunned.
The eldest sister who grew up with her since she was a child, the eldest sister who took them up the mountain to dig wild vegetables and took care of them was not her own eldest sister, but the daughter of the former crown prince?
"The prefect has already sent someone to tell us about the things that happened in the capital. Zhao slowly spoke, opening up a dusty past.
It turned out that He Dayou and Zhao were maids and servants in the womb of the former dynasty prince, and when the former dynasty prince was framed, he let the two leave the capital with their children.
And He Jingjing's mother-in-law also followed the prince of the former dynasty after the suicide of the prince of the former dynasty.
Although Zhao told this matter in a few words, it was undoubtedly very touching in He Jingjing's heart.
Maybe this body has memories, He Jingjing also feels the same way, and feels that his heart is dripping blood.
"Since we brought you back, we have been treating you as our own daughter, but we were in too much of a hurry and didn't bring anything of value out. You have lived a lot of hard times over the years, and in the end, it is up to you to support this family. ”
After finishing speaking, Zhao left tears in his eyes, feeling ashamed of He Jingjing.
He Dayou on the side also couldn't stop smoking, and he could see through his eyes that his emotions were also very uncalm.
He Jingjing stood up and gave Zhao and He Dayou a big hug.
"You are my father and mother, and you are the one who gave me a second life. He Jingjing secretly swore in her heart that she would honor the Zhao family and He Dayou in the future.
On this day, Ye Haixuan officially moved into He Jingjing's yard, and he felt very satisfied.
The next day, Ye Haixuan accompanied He Jingjing to the prefect's yamen.
"Lord Prefect, your goddaughter and Ye Gongzi are here. "The people in the yamen basically know He Jingjing and Ye Haixuan, and as soon as the two of them come in, someone will inform the prefect.
At this moment, the prefect was working, and when he heard that He Jingjing and Ye Haixuan were actually here, he was a little surprised.
"Godfather. He Jingjing called the prefect crisply, and the prefect came back to his senses.
"Why did you come back, isn't it in the capital?" asked the prefect a little strangely.
Ye Haixuan told the emperor in the hall about the process of forcibly leaving the two of them, and the prefect was very embarrassed when he heard it.
"So you secretly ran back?" asked the prefect who looked at He Jingjing angrily.
He Jingjing nodded, and the prefect tapped He Jingjing's nose amusedly.
"Are you really bold enough, and you are not afraid that the emperor will punish you for your crimes?" The prefect smiled and asked He Jingjing and Ye Haixuan to come to the table and sit down, and then took some tea and poured it for the two of them.
"The emperor is reluctant to cure my crimes, and he still wants to save my life to make steak for him. He Jingjing raised her eyebrows and said to the prefect.
The prefect laughed when he heard this.
"Why did you have the kung fu to come here to find me today?" The prefect asked He Jingjing after taking a sip of tea: "The newlywed Yan'er doesn't go to play with your husband, but wants to go to the county government to find me, the old man?"
Saying that, the prefect also glanced at Ye Haixuan with frowns, and Ye Haixuan and He Jingjing's faces turned red.
"Godfather, I came here today to find you on business. He Jingjing chose to ignore the prefect's jokes and quickly changed the topic.
"What else can you do, you have become the county lord of Pingyang, no one dares to bully you this time. The prefect laughed and teased He Jingjing again.
"Actually, the emperor can not trouble me this time, mainly because I promised one thing. He Jingjing told the prefect about what she said in the main hall about establishing a food college.
When the prefect heard this, he thought it was a good idea.
"This is a good thing, if it is done well, it will benefit all people. The prefect nodded again and again, but he didn't expect He Jingjing to come up with such an idea.
"The emperor himself said that he wanted to give me a piece of land in Linzhou Mansion, and I came to you to see which piece of land you could give me. He Jingjing hugged the prefect's arm and said coquettishly.
Looking at He Jingjing's smiling face, the prefect's mood couldn't help but improve, and the smile on his face never broke.
"You come with me. The prefect led He Jingjing and Ye Haixuan to his case, and then took out a map of Linzhou Mansion from the bookshelf.
"Look how it is here. The prefect pointed to a piece of mountain land and asked He Jingjing.
He Jingjing didn't know much about the terrain of Linzhou Mansion, even if the prefect had pointed it out, he still couldn't get it right, so He Jingjing shook his head.
"No, this is a treasure land!" the prefect shook his head when he saw He Jingjing, and said incredulously.
"My lord, Jingjing should mean that she doesn't know where this place is. Ye Haixuan on the side explained, and He Jingjing nodded immediately.
Seeing that the two actually had such a tacit understanding, the prefect smiled at He Jingjing again.
"You are familiar with this place, and you have spent the night in the lonely men and women on it. The prefect smiled and put away the map.
"Eh, why did you put the map away?" He Jingjing thought that the prefect had repented and didn't want to give the land, so he hurriedly asked anxiously.
"Can you understand the map when it is released?" the prefect knocked He Jingjing on the head with the rolled map.
"What do you mean, this mountain is the mountain where the cooking competition is contested?" Ye Haixuan on the side calmly asked the prefect.
The prefect nodded approvingly.
When he heard that the prefect actually had the heart to give himself the mountain that participated in the semi-closed cooking competition, He Jingjing was very happy.
"Yes, yes, there it is. "There's an all-round little thug in that mountain forest!
After talking about things, it happened to be almost noon, and He Jingjing proposed to cook a delicious meal for the prefect at noon today.
As soon as he heard that he could eat He Jingjing's own meal at noon today, the prefect hurriedly sent someone home to call his daughter-in-law to come over and eat together.
In order to thank the prefect for taking care of him all the time, and helping him in the capital many times, He Jingjing remade an improved version of the prefect's hot pot, and then fried a few of his best dishes in his previous life.
And today, the prefect's wife is also there, and He Jingjing stewed another pot of black chicken soup.
"Jingjing, I think your craft has grown a lot?"
