Min Yanshi coughed dryly and reminded his wife: "Big sister is looking at you." ”

Yun Yi's face was nervous, could it be her turn, she turned around stiffly, and her face was full of well-behaved: "Sister? ”

Hanzhi only smiled, didn't say anything, lowered his head and continued to eat.

Yun Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, and saw that there were more dishes from Min Yanshi in the bowl, and said to her, "Let's stay at home tonight." ”

"But?" Yunzhi was surprised.

"Staying there is nothing more than clothes, books, gold and silver, nothing remarkable." Min Yanshi said, "I will take the important things a long time ago, tomorrow we will go and pick up Chuxia, and then pack some things by the way." ”

As he spoke, he asked the third uncle, Ping Luo and Hanzhi for instructions that he wanted to live in the Duke's Mansion with Yunzhi temporarily.

Seeing that they all agreed, Chu Xue got up and said, "The yard originally arranged for you, those people didn't turn it over much, so I'll take someone to clean it." ”

Yun Zhi hurriedly stopped: "You have to eat well and take care of your body, now that you are home, I can take care of it myself." She pulled Min Yanshi, "Otherwise, let's go first." ”

Min Yanshi got up and saluted his family, and the husband and wife left the table first.

Soon after the meal was over, he resigned from his family, Hanzhi went to his grandmother's yard alone, lived in the bedroom of the original Yunzhi, and was about to prepare for washing, Mama Rui came in to tell him that the eldest lady had returned home from the palace.

Hanzhi looked at the grandmother in the mirror, hesitated for a while, and then ordered someone to put her hair in a bun again, and when she came out, the people said that the eldest lady had gone to Xinghuatang.

Xinghuatang, as Zhu Chengqian's main living place, was turned upside down, up to the confidential documents of the imperial court, down to the candied fruits in the food box, none of them were spared, so they almost demolished the house to see if there were any big treasures hidden in the secret passage of the wall.

"Madam, there is not even a place to settle here, the old lady's inner courtyard has cleaned up a few rooms, the slave maid will send you over to live first." The people persuaded one after another, "The houses there are hot, it's too cold here, you can't stand it." ”

The eldest lady didn't respond, and picked up from the ground casually, what was a hairpin that had been trampled on, and the white jade beads of the East China Sea on it were picked off, and she sneered coldly: "Such a precious thing, if you don't take it to the black market and sell it at a cheap price, it can't be sold on the market at all, if they dare to sell it, the yamen should be caught, what are they going to do." ”

"Take it back to coax the mother-in-law at home, and it's good to come to the Duke's Palace, but go back empty-handed." The lights outside the house were suddenly brightened, and more than a dozen lanterns were clustered to send Hanzhi here, and she entered the door and said to her mother, "In the past, there were few things in your house that were stolen by the Wang family?" There is always a place to digest these things in the streets and alleys, and the world is much more complex and shrewd than you think. ”

The eldest lady watched her daughter walk towards her, under the brilliant lights, Hanzhi's noble temperament was very similar to the eldest sister twenty years ago, but Hanzhi was more ruthless and decisive than her aunt.

"Go down, I'll have a few words with the eldest lady." Han Zhi instructed others, "Clean up a room, warm up, Mrs. lives in Xinghua Hall tonight, but a couch, you can always clean it up, and the rest of the things will be sorted out during the day tomorrow." ”

The people received the order and hurried to do as they were told.

The eldest lady walked to the mirror platform, brushed away the messy things, and was accidentally cut by the broken lens, Hanzhi stepped forward, squeezed out the dirty blood for his mother, and ordered someone to get a clean cotton cloth to bandage his mother's wounds.

"It's okay." The eldest lady stopped, withdrew her hand and said, "I don't touch it, you can go farther, there are debris here." ”

Han Zhizhi: "My aunt sent you to the manor on the outskirts of Beijing, which was originally planned by Fuyi and grandmother, and wanted you to leave to avoid trouble, so I didn't send anyone to take you back to my house later, I hope you don't misunderstand." ”

"It doesn't matter, what they want to do is irrelevant to me from now on." The eldest lady said, the mother and daughter stared at each other for a long time, and she asked again, "Are you going to be the crown princess, or are you Xiang Qi directly succeeding to the throne and canonizing the queen?" ”

"It's not decided yet." Han Zhizhi, "But the result is the same, your daughter and I will be the mother of the country in Daqi in the future." ”

There was a glint of pride in the eyes of the eldest lady, thinking of the second family, she was bent on cultivating Yunzhi to be the future queen, she really didn't think she could do anything, and she didn't look at her daughter's virtues.

In this world, only her flesh and blood are qualified to become a dragon and a phoenix.

"Father, today came to me with a poison bag in his mouth, I don't know whether to kill the prince, or your son-in-law or me." Han Zhizhi, "He may really not understand me, thinking that I will be soft-hearted for the love of father and daughter, but I don't know, just by hearing his name, I know that he is going to calculate me." ”

The eldest lady sneered: "How is he now?" ”

Han Zhi said: "Emperor Daxing is at the funeral, the new monarch is on the throne, and after the world is stable, someone will naturally send him down." ”

The eldest lady said: "For the sake of your throne, for the glory and dignity of the queen's mother's family, he will be released, right?" ”

Hanzhi shook his head and said, "It's hard to say, because I don't care." ”

The eldest lady lowered her eyes, raised her eyes again, and said: "Even if I am wrong, there is always the credit for giving birth to you in October, Hanzhi, my mother wants to ask you for one last thing." ”

Hanzhi didn't immediately agree: "You say it first, what's the matter." ”

The eldest lady smiled: "Really cautious, the deep palace will be sinister in the future, even if Xiang Qi is single-minded towards you, you must be careful of the open guns and hidden arrows from the various factions in the DPRK and China." ”

Hanzhi was very simply: "Mother, what's the matter?" ”

The eldest lady said: "I want to reconcile with your father, and I will never be a member of the Zhu family again, I will leave here for a long time, but your aunt does not agree, she wants to think about me and you." Hanzhi, in my life, I haven't thought about anything for others, I've been selfish, arrogant, and done all the bad things, but I haven't really lived for myself. Just this time, and for the last time, even if I'm sorry for you, I want to get rid of the Zhu family before I die, and I have nothing to do with it. ”

Hanzhi agreed without hesitation: "Okay, I will take care of this matter for my mother, once my father commits a crime, you have the right to propose reconciliation, and besides, I promised to help the women of the world in the future, how can I not support your decision." ”

Mrs. Min snorted: "Words and support? Don't follow her to fool around, she is a country girl, her heart is higher than the sky, how does she know the real sinister hardships in the world, and she takes it for granted that with the strength of a few of you, she can change the ...... of women in the world."

Han Zhi interrupted his mother's words: "I will do it for you as soon as possible, until then, you are still the eldest lady of the Duke's Palace, and I will not let anyone treat you badly." ”

"Hanzhi ......"

"Mother still has orders?"

The eldest lady looked at her daughter, her vision became more and more blurred, she didn't know what she wanted to say, it seemed that she had a lot of words, but she couldn't even mention half a word at the moment.

Hanzhi waited quietly, not urging or bored, the calm and solemn in her eyes gave her a dignity above the world.

"Nothing." The eldest lady slowly retracted her gaze and turned her back, "Go back, take care." ”

Han Zhi bowed slightly, took two steps back, and left without looking back, and the maids standing outside the house followed with lanterns.

"You stay, clean up the house for the eldest lady, and take care of her." Hanzhi took a lantern and left Xinghuatang alone, and when he got to the door, he blew out the lantern and abandoned it on the side of the road.

The night was getting thicker and thicker, and Hanzhi walked along the familiar road, the light moonlight swayed slightly on her face, and it was the tears that refracted the light.

But on the way to the grandmother's courtyard, there was suddenly a light behind her coming here, she was standing in the dark, the people in the light couldn't see her, Xiang Qi strode forward, I am afraid that he came to this house without defense, and he was not vigilant about the surroundings, so he rushed straight to the front of Hanzhi.

On the contrary, it was the subordinate who was in charge of the lamp on the side, who found the figure of the eldest lady, and said busily: "The world, the prince of the world, ......"

Xiang Qi looked back, and then saw his wife in the firelight, rushed to the front, and asked in surprise, "How did you know that I was coming?" ”

Han Zhi said angrily: "Walking in front of me, I didn't even notice it, are you going to leave me again?" ”

Xiang Qi's expression became serious, and he reached out to touch the tears on Han Zhi's face: "Why are you crying, what's wrong?" ”

Hanzhi shook his head: "It's nothing, I probably miss you." ”

Xiang Qi said: "I have no intention of keeping vigil for that person, there are princes and princes, and it is not my turn." You said that you stood here and didn't say anything when you saw me, didn't you mean it? ”

Han Zhi wiped away his tears and said, "Since you are here, let's rest for a night, there are still many things waiting for us in the future." ”

Xiang Qi took his wife's hand and went to the grandmother's courtyard, while saying, "There is something, the mother concubine and I have discussed, let me ask what you think." ”

Han Zhi asked, "About the succession?" ”

Xiang Qi's chin was slightly heavy: "The mother concubine said that my father's body can no longer support state affairs." ”

Han Zhi understood: "Along the way, my father has been taking medicine constantly, and he has never rested well. ”

Xiang Qi said: "But they are worried, we ......"

Hanzhi stopped and said, "Heir?" ”

Xiang Qi explained: "My father and mother are not worried about this, but the civil and military officials, the royal family and clan relatives will be endless, and being the emperor is not so free, you and I all know, from now on, we will only be left with ourselves." ”

Hanzhi thought for a while and said, "Then take a concubine?" ”

Xiang Qi frowned: "We said okay, I will never accept a concubine." ”
