Chapter 107: Fortunately, I left early

Zhang Erzhen guessed that the Afu in the mouth of the nurse should be Concubine Ji, the mother of the current prince Zhu Youji. I only heard the nurse continue: "Afu is pregnant with the dragon heir, if you let Concubine Wan know, not only the dragon heir can't keep it, but her own life can't be kept." I went to beg Mama Hua from the Needlework Bureau at that time, yes, it was Mama Hua who taught the girl the rules, she was a kind-hearted person, and later she was transferred to the Queen Mother's Cining Palace to serve. Mama Hua took Zhang Min and Zhang Gonggong from the same county to transfer Afu and I to the dormitory of Queen Wu's mother. Ah Fu and I are just inferior palace maids, and Concubine Wan naturally doesn't care where we go. I took care of Afu and secretly gave birth to the third prince in the cold palace...... Afu raised the three princes for four years, carefully raised and cared for them, and did not dare to let the three princes cry. The three princes learned to walk carefully, lest he run out of the cold palace. Later, the paper couldn't hold the fire, and Concubine Wan, who had eyeliner in all directions, still knew that the palace maid who served the saint back then was Afu, and ordered someone to strangle Afu alive...... At that time, it was Empress Wu who took me to hide with the third prince in her arms to avoid this encounter. Concubine Wan is ruthless, the harem concubines dare not disobey her, even the queen at that time did not dare, at that time, Concubine Wan has become the first person in the harem, the queen mother has also advised the saint not to favor too much, the saint does not take it seriously, it is because of the indulgence of the saint, Concubine Wan is even more lawless, six years after the birth of the third prince, no prince was born in the palace. The pregnant ladies either couldn't save the emperor's heir and slipped the fetus, or died of blood during childbirth. The people in the palace were panicked, and in the end, the sleeping became a terrible thing......" The nurse was talking, and when she saw Zhang Erzhen's thoughtful expression, she blamed herself: "Look at me, the girl is still young, and some things that shouldn't be said have been said." ”

Knowing that the nurse was talking about the bedding and the like, Zhang Erzhen didn't mind and asked, "After Concubine Ji died, the third prince is still living in the cold palace?

After Afu passed away, the three princes drank rice cereal, ate dry rice, and occasionally Empress Wu sent her a thick porridge that she did not drink, and I took care of the third prince until he was six years old...... Grandpa Zhang and Mama Hua have summed it up, and the three princes are the princes in the end, and it is not appropriate to keep them by the palace maid's side. At that time, Gonggong Zhang was already serving the saint closely, and when he combed the saint's hair one day, he said the existence of the three princes. The saint originally thought that he had no children under his knees, but he was overjoyed when he saw the three princes, and it was only ten days before he became the crown prince. Concubine Wan hasn't started to move yet, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has already accepted the worship of cultural relics, and it is a certainty. The Queen Mother thought that the prince was young, so she kept it by her side, and Concubine Wan naturally couldn't get into people. Mama Hua was in Cining Palace, and she also served the prince for a few years, until the prince moved to the East Palace. also because of the establishment of the third prince as the crown prince, the saint felt ashamed of Concubine Wan, so he crowned her as Concubine Wan, announcing that the world is still favored by Concubine Wan. The proud Wan Guifei ...... Father-in-law Zhang was disposed of...... , I also escaped, I don't dare to mention these anymore......" The nurse was already in tears, her hands clenched tightly and trembled, Zhang Erzhen said sadly: "Nurse, how did you go to Shandong from the capital alone, this road is not close." ”

The nurse said with a handful of tears: "What's the matter with the slave maid, the poor prince is in the palace alone, and I don't know how to survive in the hands of Wan Guifei." Wan Guifei's eyes can't melt into the sand, she must have been ruthless many times, I am ashamed of Afu's entrustment, I failed to take care of His Royal Highness the Prince, I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not in good health, it must be Wan Guifei who is ruthless. She is so vicious, she won't let go of His Royal Highness the Prince, and her nephew came to bully the girl again...... The heavens are above, and the wicked are not visible!"

The nurse said a few words, and she couldn't tell the ten years of sadness and pain, and the nurse who had always been strong couldn't stop her tears, Zhang Erzhen held the nurse's hand tightly, and didn't know how to comfort her for a while. The nurse is in her thirties, has experienced glory and decay, ups and downs, and now because of Wan Guifei and wants to follow her upside down, Zhang Erzhen's calm heart suddenly swelled with hatred, if she is the same as Yi Qian, with the wisdom of the previous life to deal with the things of this life, is it possible to stand out from the crowd and dominate this dynasty, whether it is Wan Guifei or Wan Rong, they will be prostrate and defeated......

"Why is Wan Guifei's holy favor not declining, is it really because she used the charm technique on the saint, Wan Guifei has served by the saint's side for so many years, and has never fallen out of favor?"

The nurse wiped her tears and whispered, "...... Wan Guifei is a saint...... Serving the palace maid as a child......"

Zhang Erzhen was even more surprised: "Is this Wan Guifei abnormally beautiful, or is it even more gentle, or is it still the power of the Wan family?" Zhang Erzhen felt that if the Wan family was really power-leaning towards the government and the opposition, why did Wan Guifei bother to enter the palace to be a palace maid, wouldn't it be happy to be a serious girl outside the palace to marry a wealthy family, sure enough, the nurse said slowly: " Wan Guifei's beauty is not as good as Afu, her moody temperament is not as good as today's Shao Concubine Niangniang, and her family background is not as good as that of Queen Wang, I vaguely remember that there were many Yao girls back then, and a few of them were cast in Wan Guifei's palace, and they haven't seen it in the next few years. The queen mother also investigated, but it was just done by Wan Guifei seamlessly, and she couldn't find any clues. Today's Wan family is just supported by Wan Guifei, if Wan Guifei falls, then Wan Rong is just a clown who jumps off the beam, and he can't see it in his eyes. ”

Zhang Erzhen pondered carefully, Wan Guifei had so many lives in her hands, if someone really wanted to bring her down, it would be easy, if it was really the saint, it would be Wan Guifei who wanted to sit on the holy throne, and the saint would give it up. Isn't this the same as Zhu Youji's Gu poison, could it be that the saint is also poisoned?

Zhang Erzhen clumsily wiped away the tears hanging from the corners of the nurse's eyes with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "Nurse, you can sleep with me today, I dare not sleep alone." ”

"It's all the slave's fault, isn't this scaring the girl, the slave is really damned......"

Zhang Erzhen said with a straight face: "Nurse, thank you for telling me this." As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can survive a hundred battles, and the more we know about ten thousand things, the better we can prevent in the future. Today, He'er and I ran out, but my father, mother, second girl, and second son are still in Beijing, I can't sit idly by, we will definitely have a way. Nurse, you can sleep with me today, we will rest early, and we will have to hurry tomorrow. ”

Zhang Erzhen's apricot eyes were sincere, a little starlight was shining, the nurse was moved, and she lay on the side of the bed and said: "The slave is here to look at the girl, the girl should rest quickly, let's go to Shandong for a few days, the girl is the age of the body, and she can't be tired." ”

The nurse came out of the palace, and the concept of respecting and inferiority to the master and servant was stronger, and she definitely would not sleep with Zhang Erzhen, Zhang Erzhen was no longer reluctant, and said softly: "After we arrive in Shandong, let's go and see Mama Hua, I haven't seen her for a long time, I don't know if she is okay." ”

The nurse agreed with a smile, gently stroked the top of Zhang Erzhen's hair and sighed: "Although those days were not easy, I often miss it, Afu is elegant and gentle, the prince is early and wise, and now the girl is also older, in this life, I have no regrets." ”

"No, nurse, I will let you see the prince when I have a chance in the future. After Zhang Erzhen finished speaking, the nurse smiled and agreed, the girl is not a girl who talks big, she is waiting for that day to come. The crown prince grew up by her side until she was six years old, how could she not worry. The two of them rested, and no one spoke. In the dark night, Zhang Erzhen stared at the dark curtain under the bed with bright eyes, her mind was clear, her mind was active, and she flashed a palace fight scene, she had seen too many palace fight scenes in her previous life, there is no doubt that Wan Guifei is the biggest winner so far, Queen Wu in the cold palace is the biggest loser, Queen Wang, Concubine Shao, and Zhu Youji's mother Ji Fu are all poor people who are spending time in the deep palace.

In Zhang's house, Zhang Luan gently hugged Jin to comfort, the lights of Zhenghui Courtyard were lit overnight, until the sky was bright, and the street was lively again, Zhang Luan let go of Jin, his eyes were bloodshot, and his beard was full of sermons: "I'm going to the Inspectorate, don't go out today, just rest at home." ”

Jin nodded weakly, his clothes were disheveled, his eyes were blue, and he muttered: "My crane, I don't know if you are hungry or not......?"

At this time, Sun Baijian had already received a letter from Zhang Erzhen's small servant, a few simple words, Sun Baijian was puzzled, how big is it, and the two children of the Zhang family need to go back to their hometown thousands of miles away, "Shengmin, quietly inquire about what happened to the Zhang family." Shengmin came back after going out for a while, and whispered: "It is rumored on the street that Wan Gongzi has taken a fancy to the girl of the Zhang family, and he is just waiting to welcome him into the mansion and raise it." At this time, the Wan family sent a sedan chair to Zhang's house, I don't know if this is the case...... "Before the people finished speaking, the back of Sun Baijian's hand holding the letter was already bruised: "The Wan family is too bullying, and the girl of the Zhang family is not...... , why humiliate her so casually and humiliate the Zhang family, Shengmin, let's go to Zhang's mansion. ”

"Childe think twice, if we bump into the son of the Wan family now, I'm afraid it will be even more detrimental to the reputation of the Zhang family's girl, and we ourselves will be implicated. ”

"So what, we are related to the Zhang family, and I am not allowed to visit! Don't tell Madame about this, if you let me know, you won't have to follow me in the future!" Sun Baijian rarely spoke so harshly, and Shengmin lowered his head and replied yes, not daring to say anything again.

Sun Baijian went to take leave first, Shengmin had already found a small carriage, Sun Baijian untied the rope and lifted his legs on the horse, dragged a handful of Shengmin, and the two galloped away, and when they arrived at the gate of Zhang's mansion, they were already noisy. The small servants of the ten thousand families carried a luxurious and festive red flannel soft sedan chair, and several strong little maids knocked on the vermilion gate of Zhangfu and shouted: "Open the door, my son-in-law invited the girl from the house to be a guest, and a villain was specially sent to pick it up." Didn't you agree, why are you not seeing you today?"

There have been many neighbors gathered next to it to see the excitement, "the girl of the Zhang family is so blessed" and "the son of the Wan family is really polite", everyone has different opinions, and it is even more difficult to be obedient and can't be heard, Sun Baijian just got off the horse, and was dragged by a hand, when he looked back, it was Zhang Luan who was wearing a green auspicious cloud official uniform, Zhang Luan said with a blue face: "What are you going to do, go back quickly!"

Sun Baijian didn't have time to make a move, and said hurriedly: "Uncle Zhang, has Zhen Zhen left, please let me go in and see her, Zhen Zhen is still ...... young."

"Don't you think things are messy enough! Nephew, listen to me, for the sake of the Zhang family and the Sun family, you can't stay here now, go back quickly. I've got it arranged, don't worry. After a few words, Zhang Luan motioned to the two behind him to hold Sun Baijian, and walked towards the gate by himself, and the little guy at the door saw that the master was back, and he was busy coming over to ask for instructions, the scene was chaotic, Zhang Luan said loudly: "Master Peng will be here later, if you are still entangled here, we will go to Jingzhao Yin to conclude the lawsuit together." My girl has been frail since she was a child, and she has never been out of the house, and my Zhang family has only been in Beijing for less than a year, and she can't do anything to sell her daughter for glory.

The little girl Chunlin, who came to pick up people, naturally refused to give up, and shouted: "Lord Zhang said nonsense, when our son came to visit the house a few days ago, Lord Zhang was entertained with wine and food, and agreed that we would come to pick up the girl in the house today, and now he doesn't admit it, could it be that Lord Zhang has promised the girl in the house, and the little family Jade is only waiting to get married?" Nonsense, my girl is smart and delicate, we are crazy to send it to Wanfu to spoil you! Let me tell you the truth, our girl has ......."

"What are you doing in a daze! Why don't you help your lady in!" Zhang Luan interrupted Jin's words with a loud shout, and the green willows and red willows carried Jin into the house vigorously, Zhang Luan looked around and said angrily: "If you have seen enough, go back, you also pay close attention to your own girls, don't be like this official, don't notice for a while, but let the villain take advantage of the loophole!"

"Tell me who the villain is!" Chunlin shouted: "Since Lord Zhang toasts and doesn't eat, come here, enter the mansion and invite Miss Zhang out!"

The scene was chaotic, Zhang Luan ordered whoever dared to break into Zhang's mansion by force, and killed him first! The little man of the Wan family took a few steps back in fear, and Chunlin saw that the situation was unfavorable, and left a sentence of "Let's see!" and left. Seeing that everyone in the Wan family left, but left the small sedan chair, Zhang Luan rushed up and smashed it all the time, regardless of the bleeding on the back of his hand, and smashed the small sedan chair to pieces, Sun Baijian saw the scene quiet, knowing that Zhang Luan was the most impatient to deal with himself at this time, so he dragged back with heavy steps, and Shengmin led the horse to follow.
