Chapter Eighty-Eight: Show Affection

Jiang Qingyue curled the corners of his lips slightly: "It's really easy to admit it, you know, even if you want to hide it, you can't hide it, just admit it." ”

Zhou Ruian said a little eagerly: "Qingyue, I admit that it is wrong for me to hide it from you, but I have no choice." ”

"As a last resort? Who are my parents? Jiang Qingyue stared at his eyes tightly and asked, "I want you to tell me in person." ”

Zhou Rui'an stiffened, but he couldn't avoid her eyes, he smiled bitterly, and couldn't help but say: "Qingyue, you are forcing me, you know that I can't refuse your request, you know it...... So, are you pushing me on purpose? ”

"Because I know you won't lie to me, what you give me must be the true answer." Jiang Qingyue said lightly.

The pear vortex at the corner of Zhou Rui'an's mouth flashed, and then he said softly: "Your mother was the Qing Guifei who favored the harem back then, and your father is ...... Holy today! After a pause, he continued: "So Qingyue, in fact, you should be the princess of the golden branches and jade leaves. ”

probably finally told the long-hidden secret, Zhou Ruian seemed to be relieved.

Jiang Qingyue's pupils shrank, even though she had already guessed, but she never dared to think about it, but now Zhou Ruian confirmed it, which still shocked her.

"You mean ......" In an instant, Jiang Qingyue's mind thought of many things: "No wonder, Princess Ningyang suddenly fell out of favor...... Did the emperor know that she was not his real daughter? ”

No matter how much Jiang Qingyue's intelligence is seen, Zhou Ruian will still be amazed by her cleverness.

Jiang Qingyue has been tracking down the mystery of her life experience, and now she finally knows her parents, but she was not carried away by this news, but immediately thought of the key, just with this concentration and calmness, it is enough to make him fall in love.

Zhou Rui'an's current state of mind can be described in one sentence, that is, in the eyes of his lover, he likes Jiang Qingyue, so he thinks that Jiang Qingyue is good, even if it is not good, Zhou Shizi can find a reason to give Jiang Qingyue a round.

Eccentricity is incurable.

Zhou Ruian nodded: "Although I don't know now, how did the emperor know, but this is the most likely guess, and it will be ...... later."

"Later, the emperor knew that the only one who could have the opportunity to drop the princess was the queen, so he snubbed the queen and Princess Ningyang." Jiang Qingyue suddenly realized at this time, paused, she looked at Zhou Rui'an: "The queen must have asked Chen Hewu to do these things, I found a secret room in the Weiyuan Dart Bureau that day, and a man in black attacked me at that time, that person is your subordinate, right?" ”

Zhou Ruian nodded happily: "That's right, I just found evidence that Chen Hewu was hiding in the secret room, so I guessed that you are very likely to be the emperor's golden branch and jade leaf, which is also the reason why Weiyuan Dart Bureau was killed and destroyed." ”

At that time, the queen handed over the real princess to Chen Hewu, and Chen Hewu at that time probably expected this day, so he left a back hand in advance, and then the queen really killed Chen Hewu, but at that time, the incident happened suddenly, and Chen Hewu was killed because he couldn't tell Chen Xiuer the real evidence.

It can only be said that everything has its own providence.

"If Chen Hewu took me out of the palace, then how could I fall into the hands of my master?"

Zhou Ruian thought for a while and said, "Mistake? I'm afraid I can't find the answer now," after a pause, he looked at her and said, "More than this, I want to know, what should you do now that you know your background?" ”

Jiang Qingyue pursed her lips, in fact, she was not as calm as she appeared, the truth she had been pursuing, she finally found it, she finally ate the 'sugar man' she wanted, but she didn't know how to face the situation in front of her.

Her father was the king of a country, she had heard many deeds of Emperor Xuande, in the story, he was a person with a deep city, she had never associated herself with this high emperor, but now she was told that she was his daughter.

Emperor Xuande even ordered her board to be beaten, she thought of the eyes he looked at her, so cold, and with a sense of disgust, for him, he was a complete stranger, at that time, none of them knew that she was his daughter.

Jiang Qingyue herself didn't have a sense of reality, she felt a little trance, and she even doubted this answer.

"Am I really, really his daughter?" Jiang Qingyue asked a little at a loss: "Could it be, could it be a mistake?" ”

The helplessness in her eyes made Zhou Ruian feel a little distressed: "This is the only possibility at present, you know, all the possibilities are eliminated, and the rest, even if it is unreasonable, is the answer." ”

Jiang Qingyue understood this truth, she just couldn't accept that she was actually the daughter of Emperor Xuande for a while.

"Well, how bad that is," she whispered, "I may have become the daughter of your father's killer." ”

Zhou Rui'an's expression was grim, he reached out and hugged her tightly in his arms, he closed his eyes and covered the emotions in his eyes.

He opened his mouth, his voice low and hoarse: "I fell in love with someone, her name is Jiang Qingyue, when she was a man, I was already moved, and later I knew that she was a woman, I am extremely grateful to God, I think this is the greatest luck God has given me, in this case, what else can I ask for?" ”

"It doesn't matter who you are, it doesn't matter if you're a princess or not, no matter who your father is, I'm going to condemn you." Zhou Rui'an said in a firm tone.

But I'm sorry, in the future, it is possible that he will become her father-killing enemy, at that time, I hope she will not blame him.

Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but be moved, he always had such a skill, which could make her moved by his dedication, she always didn't understand what kind of virtue she could make him treat her like this.

She thought that if he was compensating, in order to make up for the upheaval of her first half of life, then she would still earn it.

Zhou Ruian gently let go of Jiang Qingyue, his forehead against hers, "What are you going to do now?" Do you want to recognize the emperor? ”

Jiang Qingyue was silent, she thought for a while, and finally shook her head: "I didn't think about it." After a pause, there was a slight blankness in her eyes: "I just want to find out my background and know who my parents are, but I didn't expect that they would be so extraordinary, I, I don't know what to do." ”

This is the first time that Jiang Qingyue gave an uncertain answer after the two met, she didn't know what to do, she was confused.

Zhou Ruian asked softly, "Do you want to recognize the emperor?" ”

Jiang Qingyue was silent for a moment, then glanced at him: "Do you want me to recognize him?" ”

Zhou Ruian thought for a while, and then said, "I know that finding your parents is very important to you, no matter what decision you make, I will support you, I can't make decisions for you, but no matter what decision you make, I will support you." ”

is really considerate, careful, and understanding, Zhou Ruian has scored ten points on his performance.

Jiang Qingyue raised his eyebrows: "Even if I want to go back, you also support me?" ”

Zhou Ruian generously bowed slightly: "No matter what my relationship with the emperor is in the future, I will not restrict you." ”

Jiang Qingyue looked at him quietly for a while, and Zhou Ruian couldn't help but secretly say in his heart, was he moved by his generosity and thoughtfulness? Then express her joy, come and kiss and hug, he will be willing to cooperate!

Jiang Qingyue reprimanded lightly: "Who believes it!" ”

Zhou Rui'an: "??? ”

Jiang Qingyue glanced at him with a smile: "You said this on purpose, so that I could be moved, and then you wanted to understand your situation, so you didn't recognize your father, right?" ”

Zhou Rui'an's face couldn't help but turn a little red, of course he didn't want Jiang Qingyue to recognize his relatives, what good would it do to him? Not at all!

Zhou Ruian smiled slightly, looking at her with a sincere look in his eyes: "I admit it, I really don't want you to recognize your relatives, but what I said is also true, I respect your every decision, if you really want to recognize the emperor, I can arrange it." ”

Jiang Qingyue knew that what Zhou Ruian said was true, he might have a lot of other thoughts, but there was one thing, he had never lied to her, and Jiang Qingyue could still believe him.

Jiang Qingyue was silent, but Zhou Rui'an was up and down in his heart, even if he had always had no last resort, he was also resourceful, but in the face of her thoughts, he didn't dare to use half of the strategy.

Because she always surprises him, exceeds all his calculations, and makes him disoriented, even dizzy.

Luo Bei said that he was dazed, but he was not wrong at all.

Zhou Ruian couldn't help but be in a trance, it turned out that before he knew it, he had fallen so deeply, when he thought he had fallen into it, every once in a while, he found that he loved her more than before.

Jiang Qingyue raised his head at this time and met his eyes.

Now that Zhou Ruian has calmed down, no matter what decision she makes, no matter what obstacles they will have in the future, he will not give up, so why should he bother with her decision?

When Zhou Rui'an thought about it, his mood relaxed, as if he had unloaded some burden.

Jiang Qingyue sighed: "Don't recognize each other." She whispered: "Since I was a child, I have fantasized countless times about what kind of people my parents are, and if I live by their side, will they love me very much?" ”

Yes.

Zhou Rui'an replied silently in his heart, with Emperor Xuande's feelings for Concubine Qing, look at the grand favor of Princess Ningyang at the beginning, if she had not been in the folk since she was a child, what kind of favor she should have, instead of living a life of exile like now.

Thinking of this, Zhou Rui'an felt a faint pain in his heart, that fake princess Ningyang even framed her three times and twice, but she is the real golden branch and jade leaf!

Jiang Qingyue said: "I have thought of thousands of possibilities, but I didn't expect this one, he is not the father I imagined, I think, I will not be the daughter he hopes to have, although I am his daughter, but we seem to be born with less fate to become father and daughter, since this is the case, so be it." ”

Maybe she was born to not let her have parents, her mother died, and her father ...... She didn't know what to say about Emperor Xuande, he was a successful emperor, but at the same time, she couldn't agree with the things he did.

For the first time, she had the idea of withdrawing and running away because she couldn't face the person who was her father, and since he didn't know she existed, she was left to bear it alone.

Jiang Qingyue looked at Zhou Rui'an and said with a smile: "Maybe, he will still look for me, maybe in his heart, his daughter is better than me?" ”

Zhou Ruian looked at her smile, but was a little distressed, and took her in his arms, she didn't say anything, but he knew that she did this, in fact, a large part of it was also for him.

If she recognizes Emperor Xuande, then how embarrassing his situation should be, and the identities of the two of them will become cousins, not to mention, his relationship with Emperor Xuande will never die in the future.

Sooner or later, he would have been preparing for the day when it would come, and he could not have stopped, not only for himself, but also for the sake of those who followed him, and for the blood debt of his father.

Smart as she is, she naturally knows this, so she simply gave up, the parents she has been longing for.

Zhou Ruian felt distressed for her, but he couldn't say anything else at this time, he couldn't let her recognize Emperor Xuande against his will, and he was even more unwilling to push her out of his arms, so he could only hug her tighter and harder.

"I won't let you regret it." He whispered in her ear.

It was a promise that didn't mention love, but it was his truest promise to her.

He won't let her regret it, never will.

Jiang Qingyue understood, just smiled faintly and leaned gently into his arms.

She suddenly thought of that day, when she entered the palace to save Chen Xiu'er, she knelt in front of Emperor Xuande, at that time she didn't know that Emperor Xuande was her father, he was so majestic and cold, his words could decide the life and death of many people.

When she entered the palace that day, she was beaten with thirty boards, and she still remembers the pain of the board on her body, and now she knows that the person who gave the order was her father, and the pain in her heart at this time was more than ten times more painful than the pain of the wound that day.

If Emperor Xuande knew that he was his daughter, would he also feel distressed?

She wouldn't tell him.

Jiang Qingyue closed her eyes, maybe she was born with a weak fate of her parents, and she will never be able to get a simple favor.

Since Jiang Qingyue learned about his life experience, Zhou Ruian has been even more doting and considerate to Jiang Qingyue, of course, Zhou Shizi has been very lustful and dizzy before, but he personally went to put on Jiang Qingyue's shoes, it was still a little too much, right?

Even Luo Bei, who thought he was used to seeing him, felt a little unbearable to look at it directly.

On this day, Zhou Ruian came back early and bought Jiang Qingyue's favorite snacks, even if it was, he pulled Jiang Qingyue to sit on the chair and fed Jiang Qingyue with his own hands.

"It's jam on it, it's very difficult to wash, don't do it, I'll feed you." Zhou Ruian said with a smile.

Jiang Qingyue ruthlessly pushed his hand away, and then looked at Luobei: "Luobei, is there something wrong with you?" ”

Luo Bei once again felt the sharp gaze from his master, but fortunately, he was used to it after many times, but his body couldn't help but tremble slightly, so he lowered his head and reported: "Master, Concubine Qin sent a message over there to ask, how did the matter of the Dingguo Mansion decide?" The delay in the position of the son of this world is not a solution. ”

Zhou Ruian didn't care much, and still fed the snack to Jiang Qingyue's lips.

Luo Bei looked sad and indignant, now this is not a betrayal?!

Jiang Qingyue calmly lowered his head and took a bite, and then asked, "The matter of the Dingguo Mansion is not over yet?" ”

"How can it be so fast, three brothers, fight for your life and death for the position of a prince, without the Duke of Dingguo, this Mansion of the Duke of Dingguo will not last long," Zhou Ruian said, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and after a pause, he coaxed lightly: "Eat a little more." ”

Jiang Qingyue tilted his head sideways, and then asked him, "Then who are you going to let be this Dingguo Gong?" ”

Luo Bei also looked at Zhou Rui'an, in fact, Luo Bei came to ask about this matter several times, but each time he was evaded by Zhou Rui'an lightly, he didn't take this seriously at all, this time he deliberately chose a Jiang Qingyue when he was there, sure enough, Jiang Qingyue asked, there must be a result!

In these days, is it easy to be a subordinate? Not only must you be able and loyal, but you must also be able to read words and feelings, otherwise it is easy to do badly.

Luo Bei felt that when he was old in the future and went home to retire, he should write a book, the title of which was "The Days I Was a Subordinate in Those Years", and he thought that it would definitely sell well.

Zhou Ruian looked at Jiang Qingyue with a smile in his eyes: "Then, who do you like to let be the Duke of Dingguo?" ”

Luo Bei looked at Jiang Qingyue, stretched out his finger, and compared a word, Fang Mingwei, the eldest young master of the Dingguo Mansion, has average talent, but he is pretentious, he has always thought that he has no talent, and he has no brains, it is best to control it, if he is the Dingguo Prince, they will be equal to one less opponent.

Jiang Qingyue said casually: "Fang Mingkun." ”

Luobei: "......"

He didn't believe it! He didn't believe that the smart and shrewd Jiang Gongzi didn't see his hint! He absolutely didn't believe it! But why didn't Jiang Gongzi take his opinion! He was not happy!

Zhou Rui'an's expression remained unchanged, and he still looked at her with a smile and said, "Oh? Why? Aren't you angry that he kidnapped you last time? ”

Jiang Qingyue said honestly: "Of the three sons of Dingguo Gong, I only know one. After a pause, she continued: "Fang Mingkun is ambitious and vicious enough, but his talent is average, and his luck is too bad to become a climate. ”

Hearing Jiang Qingyue's words, Luo Bei was in a hurry, things can't just look at the surface, Fang Mingkun's other two brothers are even more straw bales, in comparison, Fang Mingkun is already calm and capable!

Jiang Qingyue continued: "The most important thing is that he is the youngest son, but he inherited the title over his two elder brothers, think about it, can his two elder brothers let him go?" When the time comes, let his two brothers add some more blocks to him, and it will save us from dealing with him again. ”

Luo Bei was stunned, and suddenly found that what Jiang Qingyue said was very reasonable! Although Fang Mingwei does not have the talent to be the son of the world, but he is the eldest son, since ancient times, he has paid attention to the order of the young and the old, Fang Mingwei has nothing to say when he inherits the title, when the time comes, maybe the Dingguo Mansion will be united, and Fang Mingkun will not be able to disobey his eldest brother.

But if Fang Mingkun becomes the son of the world, it will be different, a young son, past the two elder brothers, according to the current situation, the Dingguo Mansion will have to quarrel.

Zhou Ruian glanced at Jiang Qingyue deeply, and then said with a smile: "Okay, then listen to Qingyue." After speaking, he glanced at Luo Bei: "Do you know what to do?" ”

"Yes, master, my subordinates will arrange it!" Luobei's errand was completed, and he retired very happily.

As soon as the people in the way left, Zhou Ruian picked up another piece of snack and fed it to Jiang Qingyue's mouth, "Eat a little more." ”

Jiang Qingyue looked at the unchanged smile on his face, but there was a little drum in his heart: "Don't you object?" ”

"I've always been afraid of guilt, so naturally it's good if you say anything." Zhou Ruian said with a smile.

Jiang Qingyue took a bite of the snack, a little absent-minded.

Zhou Ruian looked at her side face, but couldn't help but smile slightly, Qingyue was guilty just now.

In fact, Jiang Qingyue would choose Fang Mingkun, in addition to the reasons she said, there is a more important reason, that is, Fang Mingkun is the most capable of supporting the second prince, and he is also the most loyal person to the second prince.

The other two, even if they become the Duke of Dingguo, one is incapable, and the other is not so harmonious with the second prince.

Jiang Qingyue knew this, so he recommended Fang Mingkun.

It seems that the second prince used to dig into Jiang Qingyue's heart, but in the end she was still moved, Zhou Ruian sighed in his heart.

Fortunately, the good thing is that they are brother and sister.

Jiang Qingyue did this, it was indeed as Zhou Rui'an thought, she felt that with Zhou Rui'an's ability, a Fang Mingkun could not pose a danger to him.

As soon as Zhou Rui'an made a move, even the decisive Dingguo Duke hit the pillar and died, a small Fang Mingkun, Zhou Ruian couldn't put it in his eyes at all, even if it was a Fang Mingkun to assist the second prince, it wouldn't be a big deal.

That's why Zhou Ruian asked her casually at that time, who he wanted to choose as the prince, because he didn't care at all, no matter who these three people were who became the new Dingguo Gong, it made no difference to him.

Since he didn't care, she chose whoever she chose the same.

Jiang Qingyue thought of the second prince, by the way, now that they are brothers and sisters, she couldn't help but smile.

Zhou Ruian couldn't help asking, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Jiang Qingyue said with a smile: "I was just thinking, if His Royal Highness knew that we were half-brothers, he would be very surprised, haha, I can't see the surprised expression on his face, it's really a little regrettable." ”

Zhou Rui'an: "......"

Zhou Ruian asked with difficulty: "How do you know that he will be happy?" ”

Jiang Qingyue said as a matter of course: "Of course, he has always treated me like a brother, he is really closer than a brother, if he knows that we are really brothers, he will definitely be happier!" As he spoke, he nodded heavily, "No wonder I always feel that I am in love with His Royal Highness, and he looks at me differently than others, maybe it is really related by blood." ”

Jiang Qingyue felt that this was a very peculiar feeling, she was not alone, she had her own relatives, and she even had some kind of relationship with her relatives, which made her feel very happy.

Zhou Rui'an: "...... Okay. ”

Zhou Rui'an thought that the second prince, who was still drunk every day in the second prince's mansion, suddenly felt a deep distress for the second prince.

Really, I'm very distressed, how to say it, it's also my brother-in-law.
