Chapter 534: Mother (1)
Because the carriage was parked in a hurry, many people had gathered around to watch the excitement.
Jiang Yanzhi and Min Weixiu got out of the carriage and saw a boy wearing a royal blue brocade jacket, sitting in the snow.
He looked to be about six or seven years old, with a round face and dark and bright eyes.
The little boy stood up and patted the snow on his body, "I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry to go home, and I accidentally disturbed the nobles, and I hope to forgive my sins." ”
Jiang Yan was stunned, Lu Bing said that there was someone in front of him, and he thought that as usual, this kid was here to sue, but at this glance, it was just a passer-by.
"Which little brother are you, why don't you even bring someone with you? But where did you fall, let's take you to the hospital to have a look? Min Weixiu touched her stomach and asked curiously.
Seeing that he is luxurious, he should be from a rich family, why don't he bring a single subordinate around him, this is really abnormal.
Xiao Tong hesitated for a moment and said, "My family is from Shuzhong, and Daddy originally worked in Chengdu Fulu, and he just entered Beijing. I was not familiar with the road with the little people around me, and I got separated as soon as I went out. It's snowing, and I can't tell where I'm going. There are no injuries on the body, and there is no need to bother the nobles. If I can, I'd like to send someone to show me the way. ”
Min Weixiu looked at his young age, and he talked and acted in a straightforward manner, and felt quite interesting, so he walked over and helped him.
The boy's face changed, he snorted, and stepped back.
Min Weixiu was stunned for a moment and glanced at Jiang Yan, "But I have too much strength and it hurts you?" Where do you live? My husband, I am very familiar with Jingzhong, this snow is getting heavier and heavier, send you back early, otherwise your family should be in a hurry. ”
There was no joy or sadness on the child's face, and he hesitated for a while, "I don't know what the name of that alley is, but when I was about to go out, I saw a shop at the mouth of the alley, which was loading fireworks one by one, as if it was called Huoyunfang." The real estate in the capital is too expensive, and my home is quite remote, I don't know if you can hear about it? ”
Jiang Yanzhi walked over and took Min Weixiu's hand, "This is really a coincidence, we are just going to the Huoyun Fang, you can get into our carriage and go together." ”
When the boy heard this, he became vigilant, and he stepped back, wanting to run away when he saw it.
Min Weixiu stretched out his hand and lifted him up, "Okay, the little guy is quite vigilant and careful." Don't worry, we won't sell you. ”
The onlookers around laughed, "Xiao Langjun, even if you put your heart in your stomach, all of us present will give you a testimony that it was the three kings who slipped you away." He even has to collect money for the cemetery, and he is absolutely reluctant to leave you to the palace to enjoy the blessings! ”
When Jiang Yan heard this, he was also happy, "Hey, I haven't found a cow for you, so I've also found a dog, one by one, clean my mother, and hurt me in front of my child!" Don't I want to lose face with the three kings? ”
The people around him laughed even louder.
The little boy saw that Jiang Yanzhi was really a character, so he gave up struggling, looked at Min Weixiu's slightly bulging belly, and said, "Madam, you are pregnant, let me go quickly, so as not to hurt you." ”
Min Weixiu put him on the ground and rubbed his little head, "Let's go." ”
A few people got into the carriage, and the surrounding onlookers gradually dispersed, and Lu Bing cautiously drove the car and walked in the direction of Huoyunfang.
Jiang Yanzhi handed the child some food and stuffed a hand warmer for him.
"You haven't said what your name is."
After eating, the child's eyes were much less vigilant, and he began to talk eloquently.
His surname is Zhai, his name is Zhai Wenyun, after his father Zhai Pingke was promoted, he was a small official in Chengdu Mansion, this is a few years, this year can be regarded as a boil out, the family came to the capital, living at the feet of the Son of Heaven.
's mother, Liu Mengqin, was originally a noble daughter of an official eunuch in the capital, but when she was sixteen years old, her family suffered an accident. Her parents made a quick decision to marry her off before the upheaval. The crime is not as good as marrying a daughter, the Liu family fell, Liu Mengqin went to Chengdu Mansion, over the years, although not to say that he was rich and expensive, but at least he had a comfortable life.
While a few people were talking about acquaintance, the carriage stopped, "King, Zhai Mansion has arrived, but ......"
Jiang Yanzhi opened the curtain, "But what's ......?"
He took a look and saw that a white flag had been hung at the door, Zhai Wenyun stumbled out of the carriage and ran over anxiously, "Butler, what's wrong, how do you hang a white flag at home?" ”
The housekeeper looked at it and his eyes were red, "Xiao Langjun, how did you come back, the people in the house have been sent out to look for you, but they haven't found it." It's Madame, it's Madame, she jumped into the well. ”
As soon as Zhai Wenyun heard this, he pulled his legs and rushed inside, "Mother, mother!" ”
Jiang Yanzhi and Min Weixiu glanced at the Huoyun Fang next door and entered the gate of the Zhai family.
It can be seen that when the Zhai family first entered Beijing, the courtyard was still very simple, and the people were running around in a hurry, and one of them accidentally fell to the ground.
In the main house in the front yard, a black coffin is parked, and a group of subordinates are building a mourning hall there.
Except for Zhai Wenyun, who was crying bitterly in the coffin, several other people in the hall, one by one, did not show any sadness.
Seeing Jiang Yanzhi and Min Weixiu coming in, the first thing to greet them was a woman in a long green dress, and beside her, followed by a child about the same age as Zhai Wenyun, the child was born with a tiger's head, and poked his head out from behind the woman curiously.
"The nobles sent the children home, and they should have held a banquet to entertain them, and thanked them heavily. It's just a coincidence that the housewife of the family died, and it was inconvenient to stay guests. The official went and fetched fifty taels of silver......"
The guards behind Jiang Yanzhi were all amused by this woman, is there any mistake, are the three kings of their family the ones who can be sent with fifty taels of silver? Isn't this underestimating their king's row?
Just thinking about it, when I saw Jiang Yanzhi's interested eyes, they all lowered their heads, forgetting that the king of my family is the one who wants to raise the princess and the little prince......
"Wen Yun, who is this?" Min Weixiu was a little confused, wasn't it Zhai Wenyun's mother who died? Why did another woman come and say that Zhai Wenyun was her child.
Zhai Wenyun wiped her tears, "This is my father's concubine." Three kings, Wen Yun begs you to help me see if my mother really committed suicide. ”
The woman's face changed, "Three kings? ”
Jiang Yanzhi ignored her, looked at the other people in the room, in addition to the green-shirted woman, there was also an old woman with gray hair, she was born with a pair of hanging eyes, holding a string of Buddhist beads in her hand, she was silently reciting the scriptures, and when she heard the three words of the three kings, she opened her eyes and looked over.
led the others in the room and saluted Jiang Yanzhi, and the old woman walked over and patted Zhai Wenyun's hand.
"Wen Yun, your mother has been crazy for a long time, she didn't commit suicide, could it be that someone else pushed her into the well? You, a child, are very thoughtful. ”
