The nurse wiped her tears, guilty and blamed herself: "...... After the slave maid came out with Mingyue, the jailer didn't care about us, and the slave had no choice but to take Mingyue back to the East Palace first, and then find a doctor for treatment. But before the slave maid arrived at the East Palace, she was caught by the people sent by Concubine Shao and taken to Chuxiu Palace. Concubine Shao asked the slave maid what the eighth prince was doing in prison, and asked if you had any nonsense to say anything, and the slave asked Concubine Shao to save Mingyue. At that time, Mingyue had completely fainted, and when Concubine Shao called someone to invite the imperial doctor, Mingyue ...... Mingyue is already out of gas. Girl, it's the slave's fault, if the slave and maid go directly to the imperial doctor early in the morning, or even go to find a Langzhong, Mingyue may still be saved. The slave maid was scared at that time, she didn't dare to look at Mingyue, she was afraid that she would resent me, afraid that she would hate me, so the slave and maid begged Imperial Doctor Hu like crazy, grabbed his clothes and refused to let go. Imperial Physician Hu couldn't get rid of the slave maid, so he knocked the slave unconscious and brought the slave and maid here...... At that time, the slave and maid were confused and didn't know anything, the slave didn't dare to go back to the East Palace, and they didn't dare to go to the prison to see you, girl, I thought it was me who died at that time! Mingyue was still so young, and the slave and maid were willing to die on her behalf! But the slave and maid were still alive, I wanted to see you, I wanted to go to prison with you, and when I begged Imperial Doctor Hu to let me out, you ...... I've already been to Fengyang......"

"Girl, don't cry, all the mistakes are the slave's fault, I deserve to die......" The nurse almost couldn't stand, her crumbling body was like a leaf in the wind, and the remorse and self-blame in her eyes were deep and clear.

Zhang Erzhen asked softly, "So...... , that kid...... Was it voluntary or forced?"

The nurse bit her lower lip and didn't dare to speak, Zhang Erzhen smiled, "Nurse, you will never lie to me." ”

The nurse said in her heart: "Yes, the slave never deceives the girl." At first, the slave was unwilling, and I wanted to go to you and how to be small with others. But the slave and maid were confused, and they ate too much wine and ...... The child grew up slowly in my womb, and the slave was thirty-five years old, and the slave and maid had lost one child, and she didn't want to lose the second one. So the slave maid still did something sorry for the girl, the slave maid gave birth to him, girl, after the slave maid gave birth to him, she was a little grateful to Imperial Doctor Hu, it was he who saved the slave maid, I often think that if it wasn't for him at that time, the slave maid would have gone with Mingyue......"

"Hmm......" Zhang Erzhen gently wiped the nurse's tears. The nurse is no longer young, when she first met the nurse when she was a child, she was a poor woman of twenty years old, the child died, she was kicked out of the house, and she was forced to sell herself into Zhang's mansion to be a nurse. Seventeen years have passed, the corners of the nurse's eyes have wrinkles, her skin is no longer as delicate as before, and her body is naturally not as good as before. Zhang Erzhen knew that the first half of her life was too bitter, and she escaped from the palace by death, and when she was the master, she was suspicious of the hostess and suspected that she had not lived much peace, and now, she finally has her own home, has her own children, and has children when she is old, what a joy it should be.

Zhang Erzhen's irritability and uneasiness gradually calmed down, yes, the nurse has a child of her own, and she no longer has to suffer with her, shouldn't this result be the final destination of the nurse, can the nurse get such satisfaction? Obviously, it can't ......

"Girl, don't stop talking, the slave is wrong, the slave is wrong" Zhang Erzhen's silence made the nurse panic, she was too familiar with the girl, the more things she had in her heart, the less she said.

After a while, Zhang Erzhen asked her, "...... Do you still hate Imperial Doctor Hu?"

The nurse was stunned, and then shook her head gently: "I don't hate it, every time I see my child, I don't hate him." It was he who saved me, it was he who saved me. ”

Zhang Erzhen smiled, walked to the door and opened the door, took a deep breath and said lightly: "That's good, nurse, I'm going back, go back to the palace." ”

The nurse was a little stunned "girl,......"

"Nurse, thank you for taking care of me for seventeen years. In the future, if you don't want to stay here, just call someone and tell me, and I'll take you away. ”

"Girl, you ......" the nurse lost her eyes again, and was hoarse and speechless.

"Mingyue's hatred has me, nurse, your child is still young, I still need you, you have to give birth to him and raise him, and become the pillar of our Ming Dynasty in the future." Zhang Erzhen saw the maid standing outside with the child in her arms, she walked over and took the swaddling baby in her arms, looked at the baby's tender and white little chubby face, and said with a smile: "He is so good-looking, soft and chubby little face and little hands are so cute." ”

The nurse was still dumbfounded, "Girl, do you like him?"

"That's nature, nurse, I like him, I don't know if it's named?" Zhang Erzhen reached out and gently touched his cheek, like a soft ball.

"Not yet...... Not ...... yet"

"The worry of the heart, the worry of the heart, the death of the heart, is it good to call Hu Xinwei?" "Sadness, heartache, forget it from now on."

The nurse's tears fell, and she smiled: "The girl's name is good, it is his blessing, and it is the blessing of Xinwei." ”

Zhang Erzhen smiled and continued to look at the little doll, he slowly spit out a bubble, and his big pure eyes were dripping, life was so good.

Zhang Erzhen hugged for a while, and suddenly realized that she had blood on her skirt, and she shouldn't hold the child, so she hurriedly handed the child to the nurse, "I'll go back to the palace, nurse...... You take care. ”

"Girl, change your clothes and go, and the slave will find you a carriage to take you back. And also...... Girl, will the slave still see you in the future?"

"Naturally, I will stay in the palace in the future and not go anywhere, nurse, you have to be good, and Mingyue will be at ease. ”

"Yes, the slave knows. ”

"And ...... Nurse, you don't have to call yourself a slave, you raised me and are my benefactor. Sometime...... Imperial Physician Hu didn't dare to bully you. ”

"Thank you, girl......"

Zhang Erzhen still went to change her clothes, the clothes full of blood were wrapped in a black cloth bag, and Jin Qiu followed behind. Refusing the nurse's request to find someone to send her, and saying goodbye to the nurse, Zhang Erzhen planned to walk back to the palace slowly. I've only walked a few steps, no...... Why don't you go back to your home, can you go back to Zhang's Mansion?" She asked herself, and then turned back to Jin Qiu and said, "The palace has also broken out, so it's a pity to go back like this, let's go home." ”

Jin Qiu was still immersed in the news of Mingyue's death, and responded listlessly.

Zhang Erzhen let out a long sigh and turned around.

Out of Qiliu Lane to the east, it will take about half an hour. As the sun sets, the small merchants and vendors at this time are busy closing their stalls, the shouting is quiet, everyone is busy with the things at hand, and they don't care about the extra pair of lost women on the street, there are many unsatisfactory people in this world, nothing unusual.

Zhang Erzhen hooked the corners of her mouth self-deprecatingly, turned around and asked Jin Qiu: "If Mingyue is still here, what will she say?"

Jin Qiu choked up and said, "Mingyue will probably say...... Girl, don't worry about me......"

"Yes" Zhang Erzhen nodded, "It's me who is sorry for her, she has no one, only me, and me, I should have taken her to treat at that time, I should have killed Zhu Youzhu at that time, Jin Qiu, I should have killed him at that time." ”

Jin Qiu couldn't help but tremble when she thought of the scene just now, and Zhang Erzhen muttered: "There is still one person who should be damned......"

"Who's ......"

"The jailer who was bribed, he promised me, but he didn't do it. Zhang Erzhen smiled at the sunset, then slowly raised her hands above her head, looked at the sunset as if she were looking at the bright moon, and muttered: "Mingyue, don't worry, I will be fine, and I will avenge you." ”

The two continued to walk forward, and Zhang Erzhen grabbed the woman who passed by, and the woman exclaimed in pain: "Neurotic, you, what are you doing in the blue sky and day!"

Zhang Erzhen took two steps back and looked at her, she has matured a lot, and she has gained some vicissitudes and fatter, but isn't this the second girl of the Li family, Li Yanyan, the second girl of the Li family who married Wan Rong and was later taken home?

"You are Li Yanyan, you don't know me, I am from the Zhang family. Zhang Erzhen tugged hard at her clothes to prevent her from leaving, and Li Yanyan struggled for a while before shouting: "I know you! What are you holding me for, I don't know you well!"

"You'd better be polite to me and be honest with me," Zhang Erzhen leaned into her ear and whispered: "We haven't forgotten those things about you and Wanjia, you were given a break by Wanjia to pick up a life, don't be ruined by yourself." ”

Li Yanyan's eyes with heavy makeup glared fiercely, and Zhang Erzhen glanced at it lightly and asked, "Is Sister Zhuo okay now, where did she get married, and did she return to Beijing?"

"Haha......" Li Yanyan laughed and trembled, Zhang Erzhen's heart beat slightly, and the feeling of unhappiness gradually increased, only Li Yanyan's shrill voice was heard: "...... Don't you know, my poor sister-in-law is already dead...... , tsk, it's a pity, my father and mother found such a good marriage for her back then, which was a blessing that I couldn't ask for, but my sister didn't want to. If you say that she doesn't want to, she doesn't want to, if you just say it to your father and mother-in-law, you will definitely promise her. When did my Li family not rely on her, she was so hot, look at the girl from this family in the capital who is like her. You know her well, and naturally you know her, so she took advantage of the darkness to escape by herself, what happened? fell into the Huihe River outside the city, and after three days of salvage, nothing was found, and my poor sister-in-law's bones were gone...... You say, what does that mean?"

"What does it mean?" Zhang Erzhen felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and she couldn't hear her own voice.

"It shows that in the end, it's me Li Yanyan who is alive and well, although I was divorced, but I saved my life, hundreds of lives in thousands of families have died, but I'm still alive. That sister-in-law, who is better than me everywhere, is dead, but I'm still alive, haha. God opened his eyes, she is better than me everywhere, and now all this is not mine. Li Yanyan patted Zhang Erzhen's shoulder, and finally said "festival condolences" and walked away.

Zhang Erzhen turned back to Jin Qiu in a bit of a daze, "What did she say just now, did you hear it?"

"No, the slave didn't hear anything. Jin Qiu helped the girl and walked forward slowly.

The pedestrians on the street were still in a hurry, no one noticed this scene, Zhang Erzhen raised his head in a daze, lowered his head again, and passed by the place where they watched polo together, it really seemed like a century, it was really long......
