Chapter 331, Pure
Zeng Rong was stunned for a moment after hearing Zhen Qing's words.
On the one hand, he felt sorry for Zhu Heng, and on the other hand, he was worried about how the treatment would go on after Zhen Qing entered the door.
Zeng Rong has no hostility towards Zhen Qing herself, because she understands that if it is not Zhen Qing, there will be others.
Zhen Qing was already paying attention to the look on Zeng Rong's face as she spoke, and naturally she didn't miss the loss and anxiety on Zeng Rong's face.
"Lady Zeng, I know that you are on good terms with His Royal Highness the Second Highness, why don't you go and persuade His Royal Highness, don't come with the Queen Mother, don't you see how difficult it is for the Queen Mother to leave the Second Highness in the morning, and she wants to declare the imperial doctor according to Aunt Yuan's meaning, but the Queen Mother didn't let it, for fear of affecting the reputation of the Second Highness." Zhen Qing said again.
"Zhen is in charge, I am just a little female official, on the first day of entering the palace, my aunt taught us to memorize the palace rules, one of which is not to listen, not to ignore, not to ask, the master's affairs, we must do not listen to incivility, do not look at incivility, do not ask, naturally we can't interfere. Besides, to be a subordinate, you have to have the duty of a subordinate, how can you say that you are 'friendly' with your master? Zeng Rong didn't take the trap and took the words back.
Zhen Qing was also stunned when she heard this, Zeng Rong didn't have any reaction when she said "serve tea to the guests" at first, she thought that Zeng Rong was young and couldn't understand her hints, and she was trying to fool Zeng Rong again, let her persuade Zhu Heng, persuaded her, she could stay, everyone was happy, she couldn't persuade her, and she didn't have anything to lose, it was His Royal Highness and Zeng Rong who were suspicious.
Besides, she also wanted to find out how good Zeng Rong and Zhu Heng were, although Zeng Rong would come to see Zhu Heng every once in a while, but no one could find out some details about the two of them getting along, and the two eunuchs were just tight-mouthed, but Yu Mei's mouth was not ordinarily tight, and this Zhen Qing couldn't quite understand.
Under normal circumstances, a palace maid like Yu Mei who has crossed the Ming Road can also be used as a concubine at Zhu Heng's age, especially a person like Zhu Heng who has difficulty moving, and her dependence on the only attendant palace maid next to her is definitely stronger than that of ordinary people, and how strong a woman's jealousy is Zhen Qing herself has experienced, therefore, she never thought that there would be sincerity between Zeng Rong and Yu Mei.
But the strange thing is that no matter how much she tries and provokes, Yu Mei doesn't fall for it, and always emphasizes that Zeng Rong is her best little sister.
Therefore, Zhen Qing suspected that Zeng Rong and the second prince might not be a couple as rumored, so she thought about testing it, but she was scolded by Zeng Rong.
"I'm sorry, Historian Zeng, I said the wrong thing in a hurry, and I was also worried about His Royal Highness, plus I always see you in and out of His Royal Highness's residence on weekdays, thinking that you and he must be able to talk, and I didn't think much about it, so I blurted out the words, I'm sorry, it's me who is wrong, you... Zhen Qing happily admitted her mistake.
It's just that before she finished speaking, the door curtain was suddenly lifted, revealing Amei's face, and then, Xiao Haizi pushed Zhu Heng in, and pushed it directly in front of Zeng Rong, who had already walked to the middle of the room at that time.
"It's snowing?" Zeng Rong saw the expected depression on Zhu Heng's face as she wished, but she didn't want to mention this topic, and it just so happened that the snowflakes on Zhu Heng's eyelashes gave her a head.
If you look closely, not only the eyelashes, but also the white spots and water stains on his head and clothes.
"No, what the hell, it snowed in October." Ame complained.
"What, it doesn't snow early in October, and it used to snow at the end of September." Xiao Haizi said.
"Okay, Xiao Haizi and Xiao Luzi stay, and you two go out." Zhu Heng spoke.
Before Zhen Qing could say anything, Amei directly stepped forward and pushed her and said, "Let's go, I just want to make a pair of cotton shoes for His Royal Highness, you can help me draw a pattern." ”
Zhen Qing wanted to ask what the Empress Dowager Zhu Heng said, but seeing that Zhu Heng didn't even give her a straight eye, she had to follow Amei out.
Xiao Haizi saw Zhen Qing go out, and quickly let go of the wheelchair, Zeng Rong put the package in his hand on Zhu Heng, took the wheelchair, and pushed Zhu Heng into his bedroom.
It's cold, Luohan is not suitable for acupuncture, and the kang is much warmer.
"Open it up, it's my birthday present to you." Zeng Rong pushed him in front of the kang and said.
Zhu Heng untied the package as he said, and when he saw the bow on the carton, he finally had a smile on his face, "So particular, I'm not a girl." ”
"If you don't like it, forget it, pay me back." Zeng Rong was reluctant to hear it, and wanted to snatch the box back.
Of course, she was just talking, mainly because she wanted to enliven and enliven the atmosphere, Zhu Heng's face was too dull.
"No, how can there be a reason to take back the gifts that were sent?" Zhu Heng pulled open the bow while holding the box.
Opening the box and seeing the ornaments lying in the box, he first reached out and touched the rabbits on the screen, "This is the best gift I have received this year, oh no, the happiest gift I have received in seventeen years." ”
"No, don't forget, your mother, and the Queen Mother, they are the people who care about you the most, and they are also the ones who want you to be happy the most." Zeng Rong squatted in front of the wheelchair again.
"You don't understand, there are too many other things mixed in the care of adults, and you are not as pure." Zhu Heng replied to Zeng Rong with a far-fetched smile.
"How do you know I must be pure? I also have my own selfishness. Zeng Rong also smiled.
How could she not understand?
Don't look at the Queen Mother who loves Zhu Heng very much, but once it comes time to make a choice, Zhu Heng is sure to be the one who is left behind, without him, just because he is a disabled person and can't hold up the high hopes of the Queen Mother.
Relatively speaking, Zeng Rong's selfishness is really much purer, because Zeng Rong has no choice, she only recognizes Zhu Heng, no matter how difficult the road ahead is, she plans to accompany him down.
"Oh, tell me about your selfishness?" Zhu Heng couldn't help but free up a hand and knocked Zeng Rong's head.
"It's very simple, one person has ascended to heaven." Zeng Rong laughed self-deprecatingly, half-tilting his head.
"Then you're going to be disappointed." Zhu Heng pursed his lips after speaking, lowered his eyes, and the two dense eyelashes once again covered the light in his eyes.
"Not necessarily, there is a good saying, ask for kindness, what is there to be disappointed." After Zeng Rong finished speaking, he got up and took off his hat and coat for him, and then took out the ornaments from his hands, and was just about to put them on the desk, Zhu Heng shook his head and pointed to the built-in bookcase on the kang head.
Perhaps it was Zeng Rong's sentence "seeking benevolence and benevolence" that soothed Zhu Heng's fear of gains and losses, or perhaps it was Zeng Rong's meticulous and gentle actions that calmed the anxiety brought to him by the Queen Mother, Zhu Heng finally raised his eyes and gave Zeng Rong a real smile, and the galaxy in his eyes brightened again.
Afraid that he would be bewitched by these eyes, Zeng Rong went out and called Xiao Haizi to come in and hug Zhu Heng to the kang, and then ordered one of them to guard the apse of Cining Palace, and one to guard at the gate of the hall.
