Chapter 43: Shen Zhizhou
Zhang Qining was about to go out, and greeted Zhang Tingyu head-on, showing a smile, the injury on her knee didn't seem to have an effect on her at all.
"Good afternoon, brother~"
Zhang Tingyu was interrogated by Zhang Shihua for a long time, wandering between the bottom line of brother-sister friendship, hesitating to tell Zhang Shihua about Zhan Suiyu, but he was physically and mentally exhausted. Zhang Qining, who has no heart and no lungs, is good, and he still has the heart to go out for a stroll.
"Do you know that Sister Ah is asking me about Zhan Suiyu?"
"Oh, did you say that?"
Zhang Qining bent his fingers to his lips and showed a light smile, leaning sideways against the powder wall on the side, the white begonias in the courtyard grew gratifyingly, growing wildly along the branches, and the overwhelmed branches hung down to the outside of the wall, and a vast rain of flowers fell from time to time.
"She's holding the fire, and next to it is my cheats, I... There's really no way to recruit it. ”
Zhang Tingyu felt quite guilty at first, but when he raised his eyes and saw the cunning and calmness in Zhang Qining's eyes, he immediately sensed that something was wrong.
"Wait a minute... You didn't deliberately say something to make Sister embarrassed me, right? Zhang Qining, do you still have any humanity? ”
Zhang Qining was puzzled, shrugged his shoulders and said that he was very innocent. "What does this have to do with me? I said that, you were outside at the time, and the eldest sister could have come in and ask me. She's not my business. ”
The corners of Zhang Tingyu's eyes twitched, and seeing that he was about to make a move, Zhang Qining immediately stepped back.
"Don't be angry, brother, it's too boring to stay at home, I always have to find something to do. It's not for nothing that other people's younger brothers and sisters bully their brothers, why can't you be generous? ”
"Aning, there is a big difference between your coming back this time and before." Zhang Tingyu realized it later, and couldn't help but think about it, and there were indeed a lot of doubts.
When did she come back before and take the initiative to receive a punishment, and when was she in the mood to prank, and was she in such a good mood?
"That kid with the surname Zhan is coming, right?"
"Shhh
"Today it is advisable to go out, to buy, and to visit. Have friends come from afar, are you happy? Brother, I'm out of the house. ”
Zhang Tingyu was stunned. Sixteen years... I've never seen A-Ning smile so happily.
Not only him, but even Zhang Shihua, who was walking towards him in the distance, thought so.
Not surprisingly, she was stopped before leaving the house. She walked through the main gate, the gate, and it was strange not to be discovered.
"Miss..."The secret whistle of the Zhang family has a group of people who are specially responsible for Zhang Qining, and the man is not knowing how to speak at this moment. Because of revenge, Zhang Qining poisoned a team of people was widely spread in the secret sentinel, and no one dared to make her unhappy at will, for fear that one day she would die in vain.
"Come along."
"Huh?"
Zhang Qining looked at him with a smile, "I'm not detained, I'm just going out to buy something." If you don't worry, follow up, and if you don't follow, stay away. ”
The dark whistle who reacted immediately decided to follow behind Zhang Qining and be a transparent person. But he never expected that Zhang Qining would come to the bookstore in a rare way, or in the name of the Zhang family, her own bookstore.
I saw that she showed a pendant-sized jade plaque to the steward, and the other party immediately understood her identity and said respectfully: "The owner." ”
"I'll go upstairs and read a book for a while, it's up to you whether you stay here or not." After speaking, she went up to the second floor with the steward, and said softly: "I want all the books related to the abolished emperor of the previous dynasty, let people pick them up." ”
"Yes."
Zhang Qining sat down behind a screen, waited for a while, and the steward brought a woman upstairs.
"The owner, it's all here."
The woman behind him was dressed in an old dress and put the book she was holding in front of Zhang Qining. The white and slender hand bones are excellent, although they are a little rough but they have not done heavy work, Zhang Qining raised his eyes.
The woman in front of her was seventeen or eighteen years old, with a simple orchid hairpin curling the woman's bun, her eyes were as calm and calm as a gurgling stream, and her face was gentle, but her sallow face and the dark green under her eyes looked bad, and she spoke very softly, and some of her qi was insufficient, which made people feel a little weak.
"The owner."
"Fresh faces?"
The steward stood up and explained: "It turned out that the person who was responsible for receiving female guests resigned and returned to his hometown to get married, this is the helper he found a few days ago - Shen Zhizhou." ”
Zhang Qining: "Miss Shen doesn't look like a native of Lantai. ”
Shen Zhizhou pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "Yes, the villain's ancestral home is in Jinling, and he came to Lantai to find people." ”
"It's okay, let's go down."
"Yes."
Zhang Qining picked up one from the book he had moved. The deposed emperor Xiao Chulan, the youngest son of Emperor Wuwen and the biggest beneficiary of the dispute between the eight kings of the previous dynasty, reigned for only six years and died at the age of twenty-seven...
This was the information she had known before, and she knew too little about the young emperor.
He had seen him in the Mausoleum of the Abolished Emperor before, and when he got along with Zhan Sui Yu, including in the Zang family, he couldn't help but be a little concerned.
Shen Zhizhou carried the tray up the stairs, buckled the wooden edge of the screen, and said through the screen: "The owner, the steward asked me to send some candied tea." ”
"Come here."
Shen Zhizhou put the things down, and when he caught a glimpse of the book cover on the table, he couldn't help but say, "The owner is interested in the affairs of the Li Dynasty?" The villain's hometown, Jinling, was originally the old capital of the former dynasty, and when he was a child, the grandfather of the family also told us a story about the last emperor of the previous dynasty. ”
Zhang Qining stopped turning the book in his hand, his eyes flipped, and he asked curiously: "What kind of story?" Is it fun? She pretended to be interested in the legendary anecdote, and asked her to continue.
Shen Zhizhou: "I remember that the emperor surnamed Xiao was the youngest when he was the prince, and he was born weak, and he was a leak in the battle of the eight kings, and no one expected that he would ascend to the throne in the end." The country is not well governed, and it was soon destroyed by our Taizu. ”
Zhang Qining propped his chin on the table, covered his mouth and yawned. "Politics isn't fun at all, is there anything else? For example, romantic affairs..."She looked at Shen Zhizhou quietly when she said this.
Shen Zhizhou thought about it, but it really reminded her of something. "There's one thing."
"Oh? Let's hear it. ”
Shen Zhizhou: "Emperor Xiao had a queen who was called a red face and troubled water, and it seems that she is still a county lord. ”
Lord of Binh Ninh. Zhang Qining crossed the name in his heart, and heard Shen Zhizhou say: "But I have always suspected that this is my grandfather who made it up blindly." ”
"Why?"
"Because he said that Emperor Xiao had never had a second woman in his life besides her, but in the end, he killed the queen in public."
Killed? Zhang Qining was stunned, remembering Xiao Chulan who swung his sword at her on the Sumeru altar on the night of the Abolition Emperor's Mausoleum, and said in a deep voice: "Why do you want to kill her?" ”
Shen Zhizhou sighed, his tone was a little heavier, and said, "Because on the day of this queen's wedding, she poisoned half of the ministers in the main hall. However, there is no record of this incident in the history books, so I said that it is not credible. ”
After finishing speaking, she couldn't help but raise her eyes and quickly glanced at Zhang Qining's expression, but found nothing. I saw that the other party's expression was as usual, as if he carefully examined the relationship between the characters after listening to the story.
"It seems to be another love-hate entanglement," she sighed.
Shen Zhizhou sighed silently in his heart, it seems that the county lord has no memory of his previous life at all. "The owner just listens to it, this can't be taken seriously."
Zhang Qining nodded: "You said you came to Lantai to find someone, do you have any clues?" ”
"It's a little bit."
"For the sake of you telling me a story, I need to talk about it."
"The well-intentioned villain understands it, and he doesn't dare to bother the owner, so the villain will find it himself first."
"That's fine. Go down. ”
"Yes."
It seems that the county lord in this life not only doesn't remember his previous life, but even his personality is a lot simpler. Shen Zhizhou thought so in her heart, and after she went downstairs, Zhang Qining raised her head from the pile of books, her eyes were slightly sunken, and she stared at the place where Shen Zhizhou left with interest, with a hint of inexplicable smile on the corner of her mouth. Compared to the innocence just now, there are two completely different faces.
"Master? Tale? Oh, a kid's trick. ”
This Shen Zhizhou... What exactly is the origin?
