Chapter 823: Street Encounter (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
It stands to reason that the Hu family has made great contributions, and Hu Zizhi should also come out and show his face.
Zhong Weiwei thought for a while, and said to Chonghua: "Your Majesty, I don't know if Concubine Hui's illness is better?" ”
Chonghua understood what she meant, and said with a smile: "I've been busy lately, I didn't have time to ask, the queen will look at it, the harem will be handed over to you, but giving birth to the prince is a big deal." ”
It means that the entire harem is up to you, and Hu Zizhi is also in charge of you, but these are secondary, and raising a fetus is a big deal.
All the palace concubines understood, and they had no ideas, but they were complaining in their hearts, just when they were young, they had to guard the widows, why?
Zhong Weiwei didn't care about their thoughts, except for eating and drinking, she couldn't do anything else. If you want everyone to be happy, then you have to let your husband out and share it, and there is still a fight, who has a son, I don't have it, and if you have a son, you have to fight, who will be the prince.
According to the rules, he meticulously finished the ceremony, rewarded him, sent Chonghua away, sent everyone to retreat, and then sent the imperial doctor to see Hu Zizhi.
After the arrangements were made, she was about to go out, and when she saw that Lu Chun was still waiting on the side, he beckoned her to come over: "What's the matter?" ”
Lu Chun handed over a book of guilty pleats and said in a low voice: "The concubine has a big crime in the family, and I don't dare to intercede, but these two younger brothers and sisters are young and innocent, and I also ask Your Majesty and Niangniang to give them a chance to be a new person." ”
This is also what Chonghua promised Lu Chun at the beginning, to reserve the bloodline for the Lu family.
Zhong Weiwei thought that there would be Lu Huanting's name in it, but when she opened it, she really had the two youngest siblings, seven-year-old Lu Kun and five-year-old Lu Xingqing.
Zhong Weiwei was a little surprised, and kindly reminded: "Is it a mistake?" ”
According to the sins committed by the Lu family, the side branches who did not participate and did not know about it could probably escape, but the direct ones were men over the age of 15 who could not escape death, and the female dependents could not escape the fate of being sold and exiled.
Lu Kun and Lu Xingqing are still young, at most they are exiled, there is always a chance to survive, and the Lu family wants to keep their blood, Lu Xingqing is too young and easy to die, so it is really not the first choice.
It is better to pick the older Lu Huanting and other men over the age of ten and under the age of fifteen, which can not only save Lu Huanting from fire and water, but also allow the men to survive, become talents smoothly and continue the bloodline.
Lu Chun knew that Zhong Weiwei had good intentions, so he didn't play sloppy with her, and said happily: "The Lu family has offended too many people over the years, and the small ones are better than the big ones. ”
That's all there is to it, and the rest is not to be said.
Zhong Weiwei suddenly understood.
Lu Huanting is both talented and beautiful, and I don't know how many people are targeting, even if she is saved this time, she will not be able to escape the fate of being forced and abducted, and she may live even more miserable.
The older men can't survive, the emperor said that you are allowed to live, but those who participated in the uprooting of the Lu family are still preventing the resurgence of the Lu family, and they will do everything possible to kill them.
It is better to keep the two children who are not familiar with the world, and there are fewer people to guard against, which can also make the emperor feel pitiful and willing to help and protect him. When I grew up, this matter was much lighter, and it was a little more likely to live peacefully.
This is the most sensible thing to do, and the most ruthless.
Zhong Weiwei glanced at Lu Chun, and was full of admiration for her, the times create heroes, Lu Chun was not born at the right time, otherwise with this heart, no one would be invincible in this palace.
Lu Chun had already accepted that heartless and arrogant appearance, and respectfully saluted Zhong Weiwei and said goodbye: "The concubine is willing to serve His Majesty and the queen mother in the palace for a lifetime." ”
He saluted, got up and walked out.
Aunt Qian sighed: "I really understand people very thoroughly, knowing that she has such a character and talent, it is impossible to leave the palace, so I simply showed my heart as soon as possible, and I got a good one." ”
Zhong Weiwei responded, and asked people to send Lu Chun's plea to Chonghua, and she drove Jane by herself and went to the mansion of the eldest princess of the country.
The carriage drove through the street near the mansion of the eldest princess of the protectorate, and a team of lion dancers came in front of it, Fang Jian ordered the convoy to stop on the side of the road and asked Zhong Weiwei: "Do you want to see it?" This is the last performance. ”
Zhong Weiwei saw that Xiaotang and the others were all full of interest, so he said: "Then let's see, there is nothing to delay left and right." ”
Rolling up the curtain of the car and looking through the window, Fang Jian whispered a few words to the leader, and the lion dancer stopped, took out all his skills, and put on a good performance.
This lion dancer was carefully found by Jian Wu, and his skills were very strong, and his performance was wonderful, causing a round of applause.
Zhong Weiwei whispered to Fang Jian: "It's hard to snow, give some reward money and wine to warm up, but don't give it at this time, and give it when I leave, so as not to cause chaos and suspicion." ”
Fang Jian said: "You are right. Bowing down and letting go, Zhong Weiwei suddenly felt that there was a line of sight on the opposite side, and if there was substance, he also raised his eyes to look.
I saw that among the crowd watching the lion dance opposite, there was a woman in red, with a red cloak and a red skirt, tall, snow-white skin, two thick long eyebrows flying obliquely, and a pair of eyes that were black and bright.
It's not just the clothes that stand out, but the people as well.
The snowstorm, the bustling crowd, and the lively lion dance were all suppressed by her solitary appearance.
Zhong Weiwei sighed in admiration and said to Fang Jian: "Look at the woman opposite, I haven't seen such a good talent for many years. ”
Fang Jian also raised his eyes and said with a smile: "He is indeed a good talent." But I have to go down to the official to inquire one or two, ask whose daughter it is, and tell my uncle about it. ”
Zhong Weiwei smiled: "I don't remember who in Beijing can afford such an outstanding girl, Qiu Yuan, and she is not all the way, I can't hold it down, so be it." ”
Fang Jian was surprised: "Why can't you suppress it?" How can an older sister not speak for her younger brother? ”
Zhong Weiwei said: "If I say no, I can't." Hush...... Don't talk about it, she found out we're talking about her. As he spoke, he smiled kindly at the woman in red.
The woman in red bowed slightly to her, very arrogant.
Fang Jian didn't like it: "Young age, so arrogant, I don't think my character is very good, it's far worse than you." ”
Zhong Weiwei listened to his obviously angry words, smiled, and ordered people to move on: "The hour is not early, so don't delay." ”
Fang Jian ordered people to drive away the crowd, urging the carriage and horses to continue to move forward, and after walking far, if he felt something, he looked back and saw that the woman in red was no longer in the crowd.
Hurriedly searching, only to see that the woman in red had already walked to the corner of the street, and she was followed by two men, one was tall and strong, and the other was wrapped in a cloak, and she couldn't see her figure clearly.
Fang Jian always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it.
