Chapter 25 The Counsellor Shall Not Refuse
Chu Zheng was silent for a moment and ordered: "Choose someone with good martial arts from the secret guard to protect Huo Changjin." β
Zheng Changdong's heart was shocked, His Royal Highness was too good to Huo Gongzi!
It is extremely difficult to cultivate secret guards, even if Chu Zhenggui is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the number of secret guards that can be raised is limited. But now Chu Zheng actually ordered to send a secret guard to Huo Sijin's side, and he was also good at martial arts.
Even if Chu Zheng and Huo Sijin have similar experiences and have a sense of sympathy for the same fate, they don't have to do such a job?
Zheng Changdong has followed Chu Zheng for many years, although he can't say that he fully understands Chu Zheng's temperament, but in his cognition, Chu Zheng has never been a bodhisattva who saves suffering.
"Quietly put people next to Huo Changjin, protect them secretly, and don't be discovered, including Huo Changjin." Chu Zheng emphasized it again in detail.
Although he had a lot of doubts in his heart, Zheng Changdong didn't dare to ask more, since His Highness opened his mouth to order, he didn't like people to point fingers at his decision.
So, Zheng Changdong nodded in response, "Yes, I will take the order." However, as far as the humble knows, Huo Gongzi does not like to be served, and the little ones can only wait in the outer courtyard, and our people want to get close to Huo Gongzi, but I am afraid that it will not be easy. β
Zheng Changdong found out all of Huo Sijin's past experiences clearly, including the people who served beside her.
Huo Sijin never needs to be served, and his daily life is taken care of by Mama Xi. Zheng Changdong didn't think of anything else, he just thought that Huo Sijin was not favored, he had no status in the Jingbei Hou Mansion, and it was not surprising that there were no people around him.
Chu Zheng's eyes were cold, "I can't do this little thing well, and I don't need to be a subordinate of this palace." β
Zheng Changdong hurriedly responded, "Yes, let's arrange it." "It seems that he wants to pick someone who is good at martial arts and has a smarter mind.
After Zheng Changdong withdrew from the tent, Chu Zheng's fingers rubbed back and forth, and his dark pupils revealed a deep light, "Zhou's ...... Could it be that Zhou's mother and daughter killed you? β
β¦β¦
The Zhou family in Chu Zheng's mouth was softly comforting his daughter Huo Zhirou at the moment.
Yesterday, Huo Zhirou went to look for Chu Li, but she didn't want to see Chu Li, but she happened to meet Fuyu, the palace maid next to Chu Li.
Fuyu is this person, Huo Zhirou knows, but she only knows that Fuyu is the palace maid who serves by Chu Li's side, but she doesn't know that Fuyu has also been on Chu Li's couch.
Huo Zhirou was the young lady of the Hou Mansion and Chu Li's cousin, so she told Fuyu to pour tea. Fuyu obediently poured tea for her, but she didn't want to, her hand was crooked, and the hot tea accidentally splashed on the back of Huo Zhirou's fair and tender hand.
The tea has spilled on the back of your hand, and it's worth it? Huo Zhirou was immediately furious, raised her hand and gave Fuyu a slap, and scolded Fuyu for being hairy, such a person is not worthy of serving Chu Li.
Fuyu lowered her head and didn't speak, letting her beat and scold, but the little palace maid who followed Fuyu couldn't help muttering, Sister Fuyu is His Highness's person, what to do, that is also His Highness's final say.
Huo Zhirou was originally angry for a while, but she didn't really want to deal with Fuyu. Although she is arrogant, she also knows the rules, although Fuyu is a subordinate, she is also Chu Li's subordinate.
But the little palace maid's words fell into Huo Zhirou's ears, it was like adding fuel to the fire, and the small flame that was about to be extinguished quickly burned to the entire atrium.
Huo Zhirou was furious, and slapped the little palace maid twice, "Dare to say that Miss Ben is not!" Do you know who Miss Ben is? Miss Ben will be your master in the future, if you dare to be disrespectful to me, I don't think you want to live! β
Huo Zhirou's slaps were not light, and the little palace maid's cheeks were swollen after being beaten, but she was hard-tempered, and she said with a stiff neck: "Who knows what will happen in the future, but Sister Fuyu is already a member of His Royal Highness." β
As soon as these words came out, Huo Zhirou's face changed greatly, what does it mean that Sister Fuyu is already a member of His Royal Highness?
She had always thought that Chu Li was guarding him like a jade, and she was faintly proud of it, but she didn't want to hear these words. The little palace maid's words slapped her heart like a slap, and her whole heart was almost broken.
What made Huo Zhirou most sad was that she and Fuyu faced each other, but Chu Li, who hurried back, protected Fuyu......
Huo Zhirou crouched on several cases and cried, "Brother Li said that he only likes me, why did he touch that, woo woo woo ......"
Zhou shook his head helplessly, and persuaded gently: "Rou'er, which man in this world is not three wives and four concubines, and the third prince is a child of the royal family, and it is normal to have a palace maid." β
Chu Li has a palace maid, which is not surprising to the Zhou family. is just a palace maid, and it is not worthy of Huo Zhirou's attention.
"Brother Li doesn't have a concubine by his side, everyone says that he is clean and self-conscious, I thought he wouldn't have it."
Huo Zhirou's eyes were red, her face was full of tears, and she gritted her teeth and said, "It must be that cheap maid who seduces Brother Li!" β
Her brother Li only likes her, how could he take the initiative to touch other women, it must be Fuyu who deliberately seduced him.
Zhou frowned, "Rou'er, the third prince doesn't have a concubine, it doesn't mean that he hasn't experienced personnel, but whenever a man reaches an age, there will be a woman by his side." Even if the third prince doesn't have it now, he will accept side concubines and concubines in the future. β
Seeing Huo Zhirou's tears flowing down one by one, Zhou couldn't help but think deeply, she spoiled Huo Zhirou too much, so that she was not only willful, but also naΓ―ve.
Zhou held his daughter's Rou Yi in the palm of his hand, looked at her eyes, and said: "Rou'er, you heard my mother say that she is just a palace maid, not even a concubine, you quarreled with her, but you promoted her." Besides, you haven't married the third prince yet, there is no need to fight with a lowly roommate, you have to remember that you are the young lady of the Jingbei Hou Mansion, you know books and etiquette, don't be looked down upon. β
Huo Zhirou's eyes were still full of anger and hatred, "Mother, it's not that daughter messing around, that didn't know how to seduce Brother Li, and Brother Li actually protected her." If I don't let her know the high and low, I'm afraid that she will climb on top of me in the future. β
What made Huo Zhirou worry the most was actually Chu Li's attitude, but she didn't blame Chu Li, but it was down to Fuyu. In her eyes, Chu Li was seduced by Fuyu and lost her mind for a while, so she stood on Fuyu's side.
"Rou'er, you have to take a long-term view, many things are not what you imagined." Zhou said earnestly, "Your marriage with the third prince was set by the Hou Ye and Concubine Xian, you and the third prince have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, and the relationship is also very good, how could he give you no face for a cheap maid, there is a reason for this." β
Huo Zhirou was puzzled, pouted, and muttered, "In addition to Fuyu seducing Brother Li, what other reason can there be......"
