Chapter 50: The Toad

Since knowing the news, Xiao Dong has met Zhang Ziqian several times, and he feels very awkward. Not only did he want to see how much he and Qin Nu had in common, but he also felt that staring at others was not the same thing. Zhang Ziqian is very generous, what should he look like when he meets.

In the past, King An summoned Qin women to sing music in the house, and he also asked him about the anecdotes of his quyi, but at that time, he couldn't imagine that he was actually a man - of course, he was not very old at that time, and he had neither a beard nor an Adam's apple. With a light sweep of moth eyebrows, delicate facial features, she looks definitely a beauty. Later, he did not come often, and when he met again, he was always far away, wearing a collared, a turtleneck, and a veiled dress—so that it was impossible to tell whether there was an Adam's apple or not.

By the way, when did King An know that he was originally a man and not a woman? Take special care of him, before or after knowing the truth? Ahem, of course, Xiaodong didn't want to dig into his father's emotional history - but everyone has curiosity.

If King Ann had taken care of him before he found out that he was a man...... After discovering it, don't you feel that you have been deceived and deceived? If it is found out, King Ke'an is not the type of Holy Mother who is overly sympathetic, why does he take extra care of Zhang Ziqian? Moreover, even Xiao Dong didn't know about the secret road of King An's Mansion, Zhang Ziqian actually knew-

Of course, Xiaodong didn't believe that there were indeed any "two or three things that had to be said" between King An and Zhang Ziqian, but she began to wonder in another direction, would King An know Zhang Ziqian's father?

Quite possibly.

Zhang Ziqian has outstanding appearance, if he was born in a family, he seems to be a quiet person. Now although he was born in a teaching workshop and is circling in the pile of fat powder in the singing and dancing field, he has not fallen into indulgence because of this. Who are his parents? Where do you live? What happened to him so that he was the only one left?

Xiao Dong once asked King An about it, and King An only said: "He has helped me a lot, and he has found out a lot of news, and I have also promised to give him a place to settle down." "I won't say more.

What news do you want to see? Xiao Dong suddenly thought of the second prince's admiration and pursuit of Qin Nu.

Ah, could it be that Zhang Ziqian also played a game of Infernal Affairs and beauty against the second prince?

Quite possibly!

In the past, Qin Nu was the first person in the workshop, and the singing voice and charm were like leaving the second prince again...... I couldn't help but take the bait for the second prince. Beauty tricks, beauty tricks...... The second prince is afraid that he will not know until he dies, this beauty is actually a man, right?

cough, Zhang Ziqian is really bold, and he is not afraid of playing with fire and becoming burned, if the second prince finds out that he is a man, how will it end?

Since then, when Xiao Dong saw Zhang Ziqian, his mood was even more complicated. I no longer imagine his appearance in women's clothes, but intuitively put him on the image of a hero with a rough and tragic life, and the more I set it, the more I feel that it is like that.

She had no one to talk about this matter, so she still asked Qin Lie to discuss.

Qin Lie thought for a while, and suddenly asked an irrelevant question: "Before the Anwang Mansion was given to the prince, what was the place?" ”

This Zhao Lu said that Xiao Dong still remembers: "There is also a prince who lives, but he has no children under his knees, and he has no stepchildren to inherit him, so this mansion has no owner." What does this do, you ask? ”

"It's nothing, I just think that when we hid that time, the tunnel seemed to be very old, and it was definitely not prepared by the prince."

"Yes, it should have been there as soon as the mansion was built." Xiao Dong also thinks so: "I don't know if there are other people's families?" By the way, do you think there will be one in the palace? ”

"I guess there is." Qin Lie thought, when people are poor, they want to be rich, and when they are rich, they will redouble their lives, and even ordinary people often dig a hole in their homes to hide their belongings, maybe they can save their lives by hiding when there is chaos, not to mention the powerful people? There must be this in the palace as well.

Shen Fang came as a guest, bringing new tea from Jinzhou, Hedong, and a box of home-made dim sum. As the weather warmed up, Shen Fang's daughter, dressed in a short yellow shirt and a green skirt, was toddler in the beautiful big garden of King An's mansion, giggling happily.

"We have a little bit of a small place in our house...... The yard is only so big, and I don't dare to let her play outside the door, so ......"

So as soon as he arrived at King An's Mansion, this detained child looked like a bird out of a cage.

It is not easy to live in the capital, the first thing is to live. Many petty officials and casual officials like Shen Fang's husband Meng Hui, as well as many literati who want to seek fame, all rent houses to live, Shen Fang and they are already spacious, and there are also two families, three families rent a courtyard, and the children in the east house and the west house can hear it clearly. After eating, he moved the table away and used it as a desk, washed his face and feet in a basin, and then washed his clothes.

But even so, Shen Fang still smiled happily.

The people around him have all married and married one after another.

Some are wishy-washy, and some are unsatisfactory.

Soon...... It will be her turn.

What kind of person do you want to marry? Xiao Dong felt a huge blankness.

This was the first time she had considered this question head-on, directly.

I used to think that I was still a child, and it was too early to think about this. But now it seems that it is not early at all.

People have no foresight, but they must have near-term worries. She hadn't thought about it before, so she was at a loss when she thought about it now.

The people she is familiar with, except for the brothers in the clan's own family, there are only a few people, the Luo family brothers have already married, and Shen Jing has already made a marriage...... With such a number, it seems that only Qin Lie is left? Well, if the conditions are relaxed, then Zhang Ziqian can also be counted as one.

Qin Lie has been away for a long time, although he is very reliable...... But when you are a friend and a husband, this strength becomes a disadvantage. There was once a poem about a woman's grievances, saying that she married Qu Tangjia and missed the concubine period. Isn't Qin Lie just a Suizhou Jia alive?

What about Zhang Ziqian? Xiao Dong instinctively shook his head. It's not that she has any trouble with Zhang Ziqian's former masquerading as a woman, it's just that she ...... Ahem, she didn't know what the man was thinking. I really want to live with such people......

Xiao Dong couldn't imagine what it would be like.

After lunch, the sky was getting overcast, and Shen Fang was afraid of rain, so the mother and daughter left in advance. Xiao Dong watched them get into the car, and told people to walk slowly and be careful on the road. Sure enough, not long after they left, it began to rain. The dripping rain washed the young leaves of the flowers and branches in front of the window, and the green leaves shone with a layer of water, like jade.

When Qin Lie came, he saw Xiao Dong lying in front of the window in a daze with his cheeks on his back.

That's a rarity.

Xiao Dong also felt very rare - Qin Lie walked in through the door this time, he was generous and upright, not jumping out of the window and jumping over the wall to sneak around.

Of course, Hu Shi also followed.

Xiao Dong smiled and said, "Cousin, please take a seat." "It's so polite that Hu can't find the slightest mistake.

"It's raining outside, why is this coming?" Qin Lie still had thin raindrops on his hair, and some dampness on the front of his shoulders, this person was not used to playing an umbrella.

"I wanted to ask you if you want to go out for a walk, but I didn't expect it to rain halfway through. The prince hasn't come back yet? ”

"Not yet."

Xiao Dong had thought about that question before he came, but he felt a little weak for no reason at this time. In fact, what kind of heart does she have?

It's not that he has a weak heart, but he looks at Qin Lie a little ...... Well, not natural.

I usually look at it generously, and I never think about it anywhere else. It's just that just now I thought about the question of whether to marry or not, and included Qin Lie in the ranks of the cabbage that can be selected, and now looking at the person opposite, I found that he seemed to have an "edible" label on his head, and he didn't dare to look at him squarely.

Qin Lie also found out, but he thought it was the Hu family who was eyeing him, so Xiao Dong didn't dare to look at him squarely.

Hu Shi didn't wait for him to sit down for a while and began to pick up people, and politely invited him to drink tea outside. Qin Lie came to the door, and when Hu Shi lifted the curtain, he quickly turned around and squeezed his eyes at Xiao Dong and made a grimace before stepping out.

Xiao Dong hurriedly pursed his lips, afraid that he would laugh out loud.

The Hu family sent Qin Lie back, but he didn't talk to Xiao Dong anymore, which made Xiao Dong feel very uncomfortable.

She didn't think about the question herself, but finally someone put it directly in front of her for the first time.

This person is none other than the Empress Dowager of Compassion.

If Xiaodong has a mother-in-law, then eighty percent of her mother-in-law will plan for her when her daughter is born, what kind of man will her baby daughter marry in the future? She must be good to her, and she will be able to live a good life. But everything else is good to weigh with a ruler, but the man is not good or not, and he can't measure it. Even if it is measured at the moment, it will inevitably be a false number. Besides, people will change, and if they look good at the time, they may not be good in the rest of their lives. When Qin Xianglian was going to marry Chen Shimei, didn't know that he would kill his wife and children in the future, right? In the same way, when the princess wanted to recruit the horse, he did not expect that this was a man who had committed bigamy.

The Empress Dowager Shengci mentioned it inadvertently: "Can your brother come back this year?" ”

"My father said he would come back in the summer."

"That's good." The Empress Dowager Shengci nodded: "If you get a child so far away, your father will be ruthless." If you don't call your brother back, I won't follow him. One year older and two years younger, it's time for him to find a family affair. After doing your brother's business, I can talk about your business. ”

Xiao Dong was shocked: "Queen Mother, I'm still young." ”

The Empress Dowager Shengci said to Caigu: "Look, the little girls are all like this. Okay, I know you're thin-skinned, but this family affair is not said to have been accomplished, so I'll keep an eye on it for you first. You just have to rest assured, I will definitely find a family business for you. ”

Xiao Dong's face was flushed, and his stomach was bitter.

Good family? What kind of family affairs can be called good family affairs?

For example, can the other party not take a concubine?

Impossible. Even Shen Fang and Meng Hui, a couple who are already very affectionate, still have a roommate.

Three-legged toads are hard to find. But in this era, if you want to find a man who doesn't steal and doesn't take concubines, I'm afraid it's even harder to find than the toad.
