The concubine has always felt that she is a person who loves and hates clearly.
She was originally just an ordinary palace maid in the harem, and she couldn't even see the face of the first emperor, and her life was stable and steady. Later, she was transferred to the Qianqing Palace, and showed her face several times in front of the first emperor, and the first emperor secretly remembered her, coaxed her sweetly, and made a lot of promises.
She knew that such a promise was very unrealistic for an emperor. But reason could not stop her longing for love, and she finally agreed to the first emperor and became one of his many concubines.
Later, she experienced a lot of bad things and understood that men always like the new and hate the old, and the first emperor was just a temporary interest in her. She had to accept that she was no different from other women.
When she understood this truth, she began to deliberately indifferent to the emperor. This kind of behavior is simply self-defeating for a concubine, if there is no favor of the first emperor, she is a low-level concubine, and she is bullied in the palace.
But this bullying only lasted for a while, and no one would have focused on an unknown and sick woman who completely ignored her. So she was just a little cold and wronged in the palace, and no one pointed the knife at her.
After so many years, she has come back safely.
On the day of the fire, she was rescued by Zhang Qianyuan and was dying, and the county lord did everything possible to ask for medicine for her and treat her like a family member. Later, I invited a traveling doctor, who traveled all over the country, saw many incurable diseases, and was bold, not like the palace doctor cowering, for fear that the medicine prescribed would be a little stronger and cure the masters, and the disease would be dragged on, and it could not be cured no matter how it was treated.
The doctor told her very frankly that it was impossible to cure her illness if it dragged on for too long, but it could last a few years. If she is willing, she will follow him, and she will follow him wherever he goes, because her illness will take at least three or four years, and it will take him no time to stay.
She agreed, followed the traveling doctor to the north and south, suffered a lot, contracted the market gas, and did not look like a concubine at all. But as the doctor said, she lived for several more years.
The county lord would often send someone to ask her about her condition. Later, she asked to go back, and the county lord came to pick her up in person. At that time, they were in the mountains, and the county lord suffered a lot of bumps, and she didn't complain when the foot of the mountain road was worn out, she was moved, and she recognized the county lord as her goddaughter at that time.
She may not be able to repay the great kindness of the county lord's family to her in her life, but now Wen Yixuan told her that all this is a bureau, and since the original fire, everything has been planned, just to use her.
How could she believe it?
The concubine went out to blow the wind all the way, and finally couldn't hold it back, so she called the car to prepare the car and went to Duanwang's mansion.
She was going to ask herself.
*
Today, King Duan and Zhao Jinyi both went out, only Princess Duan and the county lord were in the house, and the mother and daughter were embroidering, and suddenly heard a report that the concubine was coming.
Zhao Jinxiu frowned.
She told the concubine that she couldn't let people see their intimacy, and if she wanted to meet, she had to find a hidden place, and she usually had something to say.
Running to Duanwang's Mansion is a big taboo.
Zhao Jinxiu put down the embroidery needle and sighed worriedly. The concubine must have come over so grandly, something must have happened.
Eighty percent, and because of that Wen Yixuan.
They only met in Changning Temple during the Chinese New Year, and the concubine was helpless against Wen Yixuan, she was completely vulnerable, and even her son didn't help her. At that time, she told the concubine that the prince dotes on Wen Yixuan, and if you target Wen Yixuan with a knife and a gun, you will stab the prince in the heart. It's better to ignore it, or simply treat Wen Yixuan better, when the prince sees it, he will naturally favor you. As long as the prince values you as a mother in his heart, are you afraid that he won't be able to get rid of Wen Yixuan?
Today, the concubine is in a hurry, and I am afraid that there is something more serious.
She guessed right.
Wen Yixuan was able to find so many clues from the little eunuch who confessed to the crime, and pointed the finger at her father-in-law Zhang Qianyuan, pointing out that the fire was arranged by her father-in-law.
is worthy of being the former master of the North Town Fusi.
Not to be underestimated.
Zhao Jinxiu poured a cup of tea for the concubine unhurriedly, sat down, pinched the outer edge of the teacup with her fingers, and looked at the concubine calmly with her eyebrows slightly raised: "Godmother believes it?" โ
The concubine was speechless and ashamed.
Yes, how could she suspect her goddaughter, the county lord's family who had great kindness to her?
Isn't this the revenge of grace?
However, her intellect told her that all this was very possible, and there were so many witnesses. Moreover, under the circumstances at that time, isn't it suspicious that Zhang Qianyuan came to save her even though he was not guarding the first emperor?
The concubine's throat was dry, "I, I just came to ask, I didn't believe it." โ
"Godmother." Zhao Jinxiu held her hand, her eyes clear and firm: "Don't be confused by that woman, you know what she used to do, what she is best at is fabricating charges." Because how many of her ministers died? Such a vicious woman, her methods are beyond our imagination. โ
The concubine pursed her lips and was speechless.
"The human heart can be bought, as long as you give the full price. How do we know if what those people said is true or false, maybe it was Wen Yixuan who forced them to say it at all? As for what Hua Gonggong...... I'm not impressed at all. โ
Zhao Jinxiu's expression was sincere, the hand holding the concubine was just right, and the skin had a warm touch.
"Wen Yixuan's story is really good, and many people should like it when it is made into a book. But no matter how good the story is, it's also fake. At the beginning, my father-in-law saved my godmother, just to do his duty, and it would be ridiculous to say that this fire was ordered by my father-in-law. As the commander of the Jinyi Guard, one of the father-in-law's responsibilities is to maintain the stability of the palace, how can he let people set fire? โ
When the concubine heard this, she couldn't help but nodded.
Lord Zhang is loyal to his duties and does not even participate in the party struggle, how could he do such a thing.
"Jinxiu, you're right."
Zhao Jinxiu's heart was relieved, and just as he was about to speak, he heard two knocks on the door.
"What's the matter?"
"County Lord, Princess Yu is here, to see or not to see?"
*
After Yi Xuan learned that the concubine went to Duanwang's mansion, her mood was a little complicated.
The concubine must have been shaken in her heart, so she wanted to go to Zhao Jinxiu to ask for an understanding. But Zhao Jinxiu is the master who is sitting and waiting to be killed, and he will definitely complain to the concubine with tears, saying that this is all slander. The concubine is definitely more inclined to believe Zhao Jinxiu than to believe her.
In this way, all her efforts were in vain.
So Yixuan decided to take a trip herself.
Zhao Zhen wanted to go with her, but she refused. Zhao Zhen is a big man, and he can't speak when he gets there, so he can only stand aside in a daze.
Zhao Zhen: ......
But Zhao Zhen still stubbornly sent Yixuan to the gate of Duanwang's Mansion.
He was afraid that the people in Duanwangfu would stop Yixuan and not let Yixuan enter, if this was the case, he would directly take Yixuan to break in.
After the messenger went in, he didn't come back for a long time. The weather is cold, there is no shelter outside the palace, and the street in front of the palace is open, and the cold wind is blowing. Yi Xuan froze.
Zhao Zhen looked at her distressedly, stretched out his hand, and took the girl into his arms.
Yi Xuan's face turned red.
โฆโฆ Under the public, what kind of system has it become?
If you forget it at home, maybe people are used to them and take it for granted. But this is someone's territory, and the guards of Duanwang's Mansion are standing at the door, looking at them with wide eyes.
Shame or not? Is it embarrassing?
Zhao Zhen was unaware.
He didn't care whose territory it was, he was only worried about her catching a cold.
Moreover, these guards are also quite bold, and they dare to stare at it directly, and they don't know how to avoid it.
Zhao Zhen glanced at the guards coldly.
The guards chuckled in their hearts and immediately looked ahead with expressionless faces.
They can't see, well, can't see anything......
Zhao Zhen was satisfied and hugged the person in his arms a little tighter.
Yi Xuan's cheeks were hot, her thin white fingers were pulled out, she poked the man's tight chest, and her voice was small: "Lord Wang, I'm not cold, you let me go." โ
I'm so embarrassed.
Zhao Zhen lowered his eyes to look at her, only to feel that the girl was weak and small, the top of her head was not as high as his shoulders, she looked up at him, blinking her eyes, her cheeks were faintly flushed, and the rest of the place was frozen pale, and when she spoke, the white breath exhaled had a sweet smell.
He couldn't help but hook his lips and lowered his head, and the foreheads of the two touched together. Her forehead was cold, Zhao Zhen felt distressed, raised her two hands to cover her face, and said one word: "No." โ
โโฆโฆโ
Yi Xuan didn't know why, he was even more excessive than just now.
The faces of the two were too close, and Zhao Zhen's big hand also blocked a little gap between the two faces, which looked like ...... In a kiss.
The guards' eyes couldn't help but glance there. There are also not many pedestrians on the street, and they all turn their heads frequently.
Ah, the blue sky is white, why don't you know how to avoid it at all.
Yi Xuan was so ashamed that she turned red from her neck to the root of her ears, lowered her head, buried it in his chest, and said in a helpless and pitiful tone: "Lord Wang, I don't want to be the talk of the people in the capital after dinner." โ
Zhao Zhen rubbed the girl's head, promised "yes", then turned her head and said in a faint voice: "Get out of the way." โ
The guards panicked.
Zhao Zhen let go of the girl and took a few steps forward, raised her hand, and was just about to give the order for the accompanying guards to rush over to open the way, when she saw a small guy running panting in stride.
Zhao Zhen put his hand down.
"Please come with me, Princess." The little guy couldn't breathe evenly.
Yixuan glanced at Zhao Zhen, waved his hand to him, and said obediently: "Then I'll go in." โ
"Yes." Zhao Zhen stretched out his hand and scraped the girl's face, his eyes softened, "I'm waiting for you in the carriage, I have something to call me." โ
"You go back first."
It's so cold, Yixuan is reluctant to let men be frozen here.
Zhao Zhen smiled slightly and said, "I'm still waiting for you here, I'm more at ease." โ
Seeing that he insisted, Yixuan didn't persuade him, turned around and walked into Duanwang's mansion, until her back disappeared, the smile on Zhao Zhen's face faded, and she went to sit in the carriage.
