The first one was a man in his fifties but with a white beard, a chamberlain, and he looked like he was not ordinary.

Beside him were four other little chamberlains, almost as if the stars were holding the moon, and this momentum was not comparable to that of ordinary chamberlains.

"Just this yard?" Walking to the door of the Asatsuki Residence, a group of people stopped.

"Yes, this is the courtyard, and now it is the little girl's residence." Qu Zhizhen said with a smile, this Defu father-in-law is the head of the Empress Dowager's palace, and now although the Queen Mother is gone, this head is still very decent in front of the emperor.

"Qu Shilang's youngest daughter?" Father-in-law Defu laughed, quite a bit of a smile, and glanced at Qu Zhizhen, "I heard His Royal Highness King Jing mention it." ”

He thought it was Qu Qiuyan, before Qu Moying returned to Beijing, few people in Beijing mentioned her, and most of them thought that Qu Qiuyan was Qu Zhizhen's only daughter and the youngest daughter.

"It's the youngest daughter born to an ex-wife." Qu Zhizhen said with a smile.

If it was before, he could still say yes, saying that King Jing liked his little daughter, but now he didn't dare to confuse the public, that King Yunjun didn't dare to provoke him.

The son just went to pass on a word, and almost took his life.

"Qu Shilang actually has another daughter." Father-in-law Defu smiled hesitantly, said disapprehantly, and stretched out his hand to point to the courtyard, "Can you go in and have a look?" ”

"Naturally, naturally, father-in-law, please." Qu Zhizhen nodded again and again.

The mother-in-law who was guarding the gate of the courtyard saw him coming, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, Qu Zhizhen ordered: "I will take my father-in-law to see this pine tree in the yard, so that you young lady don't have to panic, just recuperate!" ”

The mother-in-law stepped back and went into the main house to report.

Qu Moying stood in front of the window, looking at everything outside the window through the screen, the smile on the corner of her lips was cold, sure enough, there was a follow-up here, but now that Xiao Hanyuan left, he didn't make trouble here, so he didn't get involved with himself.

Her eyes fell on a small guy beside Qu Zhizhen, Qu Zhizhen brought a lot of little guys this time, but this little guy obviously looked ghostly, looking in the direction of the main house from time to time, his face was full of doubts, and he looked like an informed person.

"Miss, this is the chief attendant next to the Queen Mother, called Defu, even if the Queen Mother is now gone, this Defu father-in-law is still very prestigious, even the emperor respects him a little, I heard that it is because when he was young, he once protected the emperor, and his appearance is related to the original rebellion of the three kings."

Yudong said in a low voice.

Although he has not dealt with this Defu father-in-law, but he has seen it from afar, and naturally knows the identity of this one, although the current chief manager in the palace is the emperor's side of the power-rich father-in-law, but in fact, the power of this Defu father-in-law is still not small.

"What is he doing here?" Qu Moying's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and she always felt that it was not simple here.

It has been too long since the Three Kings Judgment was in chaos, and it is said that the Three Kings who were in chaos at that time still had their children who escaped, but this matter has nothing to do with Qu Moying, she just heard some of it as a story, and she doesn't know if it's true or not, it has been more than 30 years, and there are still a few people who remember it so clearly!

"I don't know, but the slave maid heard that this Defu father-in-law has been in charge of the affairs of the Queen Mother's mausoleum, and he was not in the palace in the past, so he should have come here because of something important?" Yudong is also puzzled, this Defu father-in-law was not in Beijing in the past, but on the side of the mausoleum of the Queen Mother, which is also some distance from the capital.

Qu Moying's heart moved, she squinted her eyes slightly, and faintly felt that this matter was becoming more and more unsimple, was this really just Qu Mingcheng's handiwork?

He's not that big!

The room was quiet, and the master and servant listened carefully to the movements outside.

But I saw this Defu father-in-law walk in front of a big red pine on the right side of the yard and check it out, this red pine was originally in the yard, when Qu Moying moved in, he deliberately looked at it a few times, and felt that such a thick pine tree, no matter how you look at it, it must have a history of hundreds of years, and I don't know when and who planted it.

Father-in-law Defu walked up to the pine tree, stretched out his hand and patted the pine tree, and nodded again and again: "Okay...... Yes, that's it! ”

"Yes, it's the lower officials who will do it right away, since the father-in-law has taken a fancy to it, then let's do it!" Qu Zhizhen said continuously.

Father-in-law Defu turned his head and glanced at him, and that eerie feeling made Qu Zhizhen's vest cold, "Why haven't you heard Qu Shilang talk about such a pine tree before?" I've been looking for pine trees in the past. ”

"Yes, yes, it's all because the lower officials didn't notice that there was such a pine tree in their house that could enter the eyes of the public law, and it was the negligence of the lower officials." Qu Zhizhen nodded again and again, but he didn't dare to argue.

He really didn't notice that there was such a pine tree in his house, the age of the tree was more than 100 years, although he had seen it in the past, but he didn't pay much attention to it, he just saw it and forgot it, although he heard that the head of the Queen Mother's side, Defu, was looking for such a tree, saying that the Queen Mother liked this kind of pine tree that was more than 100 years old when she was alive.

The Queen Mother must be gone, Qu Zhizhen naturally won't think much about it.

It's just that now this Defu father-in-law has come to the door, of course he has to greet him with a smile, which is why he brought people here.

"Qu Shilang is really careless, has Qu Shilang forgotten other things, just tell me together! lest I come again. ”

Father-in-law Defu said with a smile.

"I didn't ...... No more, no more. Being stared at like this by Defu's father-in-law, Qu Zhizhen only felt a cold sweat on his vest, and hurriedly shook his head.

"Really?" Father-in-law Defu asked with a smile.

"There really isn't any!" Qu Zhizhen didn't dare to hesitate and hurriedly said.

"But why did I just say that Qu Shilang had a daughter......" Defu paused here and looked at Qu Zhizhen.

Qu Zhizhen's face changed, and he raised his head in astonishment, not understanding what Father-in-law Defu meant by this, didn't he just hear that he only had one daughter, and this daughter was still related to King Jing?

"I heard that Qu Shilang has a daughter, who is not pretentious to men, and has been raised quietly and indifferently in a clean place for so many years, which can be regarded as the purest family lady, different from those who were raised in the capital, I have never seen a few men in my life, and I don't like to associate with men." Father-in-law Defu laughed.

As soon as he said this, not only Qu Zhizhen in the courtyard changed his face, but Qu Moying and Yudong in the window also changed their faces.

The so-called purity does not associate with men, there are few women in this world who can do it, even if it is a young lady from a family who is raised in the depths of the boudoir, she will still see men, her loved ones, and cousins and cousins among relatives, how can you really not see a few men.

But Qu Moying is different, she grew up in Zhuangzi since she was a child, and the people around her are all women, and she can hardly see a man, and occasionally when she returns to the house, Qu Zhizhen may not be able to see her, compared with other ladies of the family, she is really a pure person.

"Miss......" Yu Dong's face changed, and he said in a low voice.

Qu Moying shook his hand gently, signaling him not to speak, his eyes fell on the face of the father-in-law Defu in the middle of the courtyard, and his eyes were dark and cold.

She could hear it now.

I heard about these things when I was in Ji Hanyue, but at the time, I felt that it was just like that, and I didn't take it seriously, and I had heard about it for many years, so I had forgotten it a long time ago, and now I heard these pure and innocent words, and it was under this situation that I remembered it a little.

Xiao Hanyuan came to make a fuss here, he will definitely not have a good temper, in the eyes of this Defu father-in-law, is it another manifestation of his dislike of men?

Sure enough, they are interlocking, and what they want is to detain themselves here.

A good pure woman, a good one who doesn't like to associate with men, pure as a child? I can't imagine that after so many years, I am really still looking for it.

It was a real surprise.

"I'm afraid my father-in-law is mistaken, the little girl already has a family affair!" Qu Zhizhen said with a smile on his face, if it weren't for the warning of King Yunjun, he would not be very willing to offend this Defu father-in-law.

This one, but even the emperor respects a little bit of the big chamberlain.

"Got a family affair? Qu Shilang is afraid that he is lying to me, I have inquired clearly before, your daughter actually has no relatives, and the earliest relatives have also withdrawn, I heard that it is still the reason for the son of Yongning Hou, which makes your daughter even more dislike men. Father-in-law Dehai said with a smile, "Qu Shilang, I am also here for the well-being of the Queen Mother, if there is really such a young lady, it is very much in line with what the Queen Mother said back then." ”

"Yes...... But there is really a family affair. Sweat broke out on Qu Zhizhen's forehead.

"But I don't know which one? Actually, it's okay to get out of your family, right? After all, that must be the queen mother's big event. Father-in-law Defu persecuted.

If it was any other family, Qu Zhizhen would immediately agree, but now he didn't dare.

looked left and right, waved his hand, and the little servants who followed him all took a few steps back, Qu Zhizhen took a few steps forward, leaned into the ear of Defu's father-in-law, and said in a low voice: "If your father-in-law doesn't believe it, you can ask the emperor or the queen." ”

He didn't dare to speak directly about Pei Yuanjun, for the time being, he could only push it to the emperor and the queen's mother, anyway, if King Yunjun said so, he must have passed through the gas in two places.

Actually engaged to the royal family? Father-in-law Defu's face sank, and his expression was difficult to look at, the person who told him this at the beginning didn't say that.

Didn't you deliberately pick him to come to the door?

In fact, the matter of the pine tree is not important, the important thing is the daughter of Qu Shilang, Father-in-law Defu heard that there was such an innocent daughter, and immediately wanted to come and see it, but at the moment this matter is still related to the emperor and the queen, but it is not a trivial matter, is it deliberately picking himself to provoke these two?

Thinking about it like this, his face immediately looked bad, and he looked at Qu Zhizhen gloomily, wanting to see a little bit of attention from his face.

But looking at it, he felt that Qu Zhizhen didn't lie to himself, and he didn't dare to lie to himself.

In the window, Qu Moying glanced at Yu Dong, Yu Dong turned around and walked out of the main house lightly, and went to the side room to find someone......
