Chapter 222: Begging for Tea
Suning'er stayed in the house for a few days and didn't wait for someone from the palace to announce the summons, so she had to stay in the mansion and set up a simple mourning hall, and wore mourning clothes for the first saint.
After half a month, Zhao Yuanbai came to the house without warning.
Since he built Xinshi, he is now thriving in Chang'an City, and Su Mansion also has a shop in Xinshi, so the attitude of the people in the mansion towards him has changed a lot.
When the two met, he looked at Suning'er a lot haggard, but it was not as unorthodox as before, he looked at her for a long time, and couldn't help but say with concern: "The first saint has been a guest, people can't be resurrected after death, A-Ning, you have to cheer up as soon as possible, look at you have lost a lot of weight." ”
Su Ning'er smiled faintly and said, "I'm okay, what is the so-called matter of Zhao Langjun coming over today?" ”
Zhao Yuanbai looked at Shuang'er and Yin Xiu beside her, seemed to be a little sensitive, hesitated for a moment, but showed a relaxed smile: "Yesterday, the sage took advantage of Wen Jiqing to check the tomb of the ancestor and secretly went out of the palace, I wanted to come to see you, but due to the urgency of time, I couldn't arouse Wen Jiqing's notice, so I had to explain everything to me." ”
The saint in his mouth is naturally His Royal Highness the newly enthroned King Ying.
At this time, Suning'er didn't want him to arouse the suspicion of the Beiya party.
When she heard about this palace change, the officials involved in the rebellion were very wide, and nearly 1,000 courtiers from various ministries were killed.
As Su Jing said, she was the only one who escaped from the palace that day.
On the day of the new saint's accession to the throne, the hall was sparse and frighteningly deserted, and the whole city was still shrouded in fear.
Among the officials who were not implicated, especially in Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province, courtiers had to say goodbye to their families in advance when they entered the court, because they were afraid that they might be slandered as the same party as the Nanya Four and be killed.
In such a tense atmosphere, Suning'er didn't know what the new saint had to discuss, so she asked bluntly: "King Ying, oh no, the saint took such a big risk to leave the palace, I'm afraid there is something very important, right?" ”
Zhao Yuanbai nodded solemnly, and his face looked a little solemn: "This palace change was killed by the chaotic party of the imperial court, and several important officials of the Ministry of Rites were in trouble in the chaos, and even the officials who handled the funeral of the first saint were only a handful. ”
At this point, his brows suddenly wrinkled slightly: "It's that Gorou heard that someone wanted to attack you on the day of the palace change, and he hasn't found out who instructed it so far, Gorou was worried about your safety, so he didn't announce that you entered the palace to condole, telling you not to be careful." ”
Hearing him call the saint Wulang, Suning'er was a little surprised.
But at this time, she didn't have the heart to care about this, nodded silently, and received the kindness of the new saint.
Zhao Yuanbai said again: "The current situation is difficult, you have to be more careful." ”
"Well, I made a note of it."
"Also, I heard that Wei Guogong and Zheng Guogong's mansion were all imprisoned, Wen Jiqing originally asked for an order to punish the four prime ministers and nine clans, then Wei Guogong and Zheng Guogong still have Danshu iron coupons, and the surviving family members of Zheng Guogong's mansion were exempted from the death penalty by the sage and demoted to civilians, but Wei Guogong masterminded this rebellion, and the surviving family members were punished more severely, and they were all punished and confiscated into Sinong Temple and Yeting Palace as slaves."
After hesitating for a moment, he looked at Su Ning'er and smiled loosely: "I know about Zheng Guogong, Ah Ning, you feel a little guilty in your heart, right now that the Northern Ya is powerful, Wulang can't speak for the dead courtiers in the Southern Ya, but one day he will redress the grievances of these troubled officials, as for Zheng Guogong's family, Ah Ning, you don't have to worry, I promised Wulang that I will take good care of them." ”
Although more than half a month has passed, to this day, Suning'er can still remember Zheng Xiang's kind face, he would rather give up his life for himself, but he still has to step on his corpse to survive, thinking about it, it is indeed a little ashamed.
In order to let Qingwangfu accept him, he even did not hesitate to kneel down to beg the concubine, this great kindness, she will never forget in her life.
Now that his family is safe and sound, it has finally added a gratifying thing to this gloomy and depressed day.
"Waiting for the old country to settle down, I want to go and see them."
Su Ning'er looked at him seriously and said lightly.
"Yes", Zhao Yuanbai's face couldn't help but show a touch of sadness: "On the day of the palace change, the old Guogong's mansion was also slaughtered by the rebels, I'm afraid there are very few survivors, I heard that the old Guogong's daughter-in-law escaped with one of his granddaughters and great-grandsons who have not yet left the cabinet, and I have also asked people to find their whereabouts in the past few days, waiting for the pardon edict to be issued, they will definitely be found." ”
"Then there will be Lao Zhao Langjun."
Suning'er raised her eyes and looked at him coldly, always feeling that he had a lot of words hidden in his heart and had not yet said to himself.
The new saint took such a big risk to come out, and it was reasonable to explain these things to him.
But this guy also had a lot to say to himself just now, could it be that he felt guilty because he didn't summon himself to the palace to mourn, and deliberately asked Zhao Yuanbai to come over to appease him?
She doesn't have such a big face.
Looking at him, Suning'er asked with some curiosity, "What else did the saint bring when he left the palace?" ”
"Oh, Gorou also asked me to thank him for the eight-character proverb you gave him that day, and he will definitely remember it."
"Oh, anything else?" , Suning'er's eyes were round, looking at him expectantly.
Zhao Yuanbai was so frightened by her questioning gaze that he didn't dare to raise his head, turned his back, eased his nerves, and when he turned around, he seemed to be a different person, staring at Shuang'er and Yin Xiu with a solemn face, and said sharply:
"Ah Shuang, Yin Xiu, why are you two girls so ignorant of the rules, I've been sitting here for a long time, and I don't know how to make a cup of tea for me, I, Zhao, have added a few shops to your Su Mansion in Xinshi, isn't this kindness even worth a cup of tea?"
Shuang'er sneered, blushed, and hurriedly went out to make tea for him.
Yin Xiu looked at Sun Ning'er with a smile, and Su Ning'er was so made that he couldn't cry or laugh because of such a reproach that he suddenly came out of, and also ordered Yin Xiu to come out of the house, and said: "But I was negligent, Zhao Langjun is not to blame." ”
Thinking that King Qing was afraid of eating Sufu's tea every time he entered the mansion, she didn't care so much about Zhao Yuanbai.
Zhao Yuanbai smiled softly with her: "I don't blame you, I think it's because every time I come to Su Mansion, no one treats me as a guest, and today is just a routine." ”
This sour sentence made Su Ning'er feel sorry for him, and in retrospect, although the people in this house were not very friendly to him, they would not treat him as slowly as he did.
But after all, he was wronged, and she couldn't argue, so she had to explain softly: "It was true that Zhao Langjun was neglected in the past, and it was all because of some misunderstandings before, but now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, I will also make amends to Zhao Langjun for the elders in the house." ”
"I can't afford to make amends", Zhao Yuanbai smiled lightly: "But there is a misunderstanding, Ah Ning, I want to ask you, what did your confused aunt offend Concubine Qin?" ”
"Zhao, what do you mean by Zhao Langjun?"
Zhao Yuanbai's question directly made Suning'er panic, didn't this guy know something?
