Chapter Thirty-Nine: Into the Tree Garden

Zhu Si's words made my whole body freeze, but I glanced at Yan Beishen who was not far away, although he was hiding now, he didn't look panicked, and it didn't matter if he was found or not.

"You heard the difference, I don't believe I'll open the door for you now." With that, I walked over to the door, reaching out to get the deadbolt open.

At this time, Zhu Si said, "No need, I think I have too much heart, so I just waited at the door." ”

Yan Beishen didn't know when he left, and when he came back to me, he had already taken a new coat from my package and gave it to me, I immediately put it on, and then saw his eyes and motioned for me to open it.

Now I can't talk to him at all, Zhu Si is just outside the door, I can only open the door, and then follow Zhu Si to the main hall of the county government for breakfast.

Although this Qingyuan is poor, but this is a good meal, early in the morning, I actually cooked a meat dish like chicken stewed mushrooms, which is really beyond my expectations.

"County master, this is just a breakfast, can you use it so richly?" Zhu Si's words are good, although the dishes on this table are all ordinary ingredients, but the miscellaneous things add up to take a lot of effort, I roughly estimated, there are probably no less than twenty dishes.

The county lord is a man about sixty years old, but his spirit is quite good, seeing that he cautiously replied to Zhu Si's words, "Qingyuan is a barren place, and we all have two dishes and one soup on a daily basis, but today Zhu Shizi and Qingwang came together, and Xia Guan specially slaughtered the chickens and cubs in the family to make soup." ”

This county official seemed to have said something to Yan Beishen in advance, and as soon as he finished speaking, Yan Beishen came in from the side of this hall, and what he was wearing now was completely different from what he was wearing just now.

"I've seen Lord Qing."

"See the Blue King."

"Knock on the prince."

Almost everyone present gave Yan Beishen a big gift, except for me, who is ignorant.

"This time the king came to Qingyuan to visit his brother on the order of his father, so you don't need to be polite."

After hearing Yan Beishen's words, Zhu Si's face did not change, but he had a feeling of taking it for granted.

I believe that Zhu Si knew about Yan Beishen's arrival in Qingyuan before the county official said it, but Zhu Si is also good enough to hide it, and he didn't reveal any news to me.

I think he also found out a little earlier than me, maybe he went and came back this morning because he suspected that Yan Beishen was in my room.

This official said that he had important matters to deal with, and he was afraid that the hospitality would not be good, so he deliberately let his two daughters come out, which was obviously said to be the host to accompany the guests, but in fact he came to give Yan Beishen and Zhu Sibu dishes.

And I didn't choose a very good position, just sandwiched between the two of them.

In this way, when these two daughters served vegetables for them, they just shackled me firmly from left to right, so that I couldn't reach out if I wanted to get some chicken soup to drink.

"Lord Qing, the little girl has heard of your name for a long time, you used to be the god of war in Mocheng, if you don't think the little girl is shallow, can you tell the little girl about the things on this battlefield."

"Zhu Shizi, this is a unique wild vegetable in Qingyuan, you can't eat it in other realms, you can taste it, and you said last year that you would take the time to come back to see me, but I waited for you for a long time, and you didn't even bring back a letter, did what you said last year just make me happy."

It is estimated that the person surrounding Yan Beishen is the eldest sister, although she looks mediocre, but she has a good temperament, but she doesn't know how to read colors, Yan Beiyan's body has obviously resisted, but she is still asking endlessly.

And Uncle Zhu on my right is very able to deal with this kind of scene, seeing that he took the little girl's tender hand with one hand, and stroked it directly with the other hand, "This Shizi naturally remembers what he said clearly, but there are too many things waiting for me to deal with this year, and as soon as the matter that is not in Mocheng is dealt with, I will hurry to Qingyuan to see you, in fact, when I arrived yesterday, I wanted to come to see you, and I wanted to say that I don't know if you have become thinner, but I am afraid that your father will not agree, so I endured it." ”

My mother, a man's mouth, really comes when he opens his mouth, I think he doesn't like this little girl at all, he has the ability to say that his scum is so fresh and refined, I despise him from the bottom of my heart.

"Zhu Shizi, it's time for us to get down to business."

Yan Beiyan left from his seat at this time, from the beginning to the end, he didn't say a word to the temperament woman who pestered him, and obviously this woman is more knowledgeable than the one on Zhu Si's side, she glanced at Yan Beiyan, and then looked at me again, and then blurted out something that surprised me.

"Presumably this is the wife of Lord Qing, blame me for my clumsiness, I didn't recognize it."

"What did you say?" Yan Beishen was one step ahead of me, and he asked me about my doubts.

Yes, I've never been to Qingyuan, today is the first time I've been here, and I've never seen her before, how could she say such a thing, or in other words, how could she confirm my identity.

Yan Beishen's question was a little cold, and even Zhu Si, who was busy teasing the beauty, stopped, and the one standing next to Yan Beishen was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground, "The little girl has seen the portrait of this person before, and I have heard that she is the Qing Princess, today I saw the Qing Wangye, and I saw this girl next to the Qing Wangye, so I recognized it." ”

The woman who was still coquettish beside Zhu Si also immediately walked to her sister's side and knelt down together, "Please also ask the prince to know clearly, what my sister said is true, I have also seen that portrait, and it is indeed eight or nine points similar to this girl." ”

Zhu Si sat on the chair without moving for half a minute, as if he was watching a good show.

I got up and walked over, "Where did you see the portrait you were talking about?" ”

"It was in the house of the former prince in the tree garden, and my sister and I once went to deliver something for my father, and I happened to see it in his house, when the former princess told us that the person in the painting was the late Princess Qing." After saying this, the two women looked at each other, and the eyes of me were not right.

I know their mental activities very well, and I don't bother to bother with their thoughts.

"Okay, Qingwang, look at you scared these two beauties, you go down first, don't use it as a companion."

But after Zhu Si finished speaking, the two of them still knelt on the ground and didn't dare to move for half a minute, and Yan Beishen waved his big hand, and then they trembled and slowly retreated.

Unexpectedly, one day I would hear something about me from strangers, what did Yan Dingchen think, why did he hang my portrait?

"It seems that this former prince is a long-term person, I don't know how you will behave when you meet the same as Princess Qing?"

Zhu Si naturally didn't know the fact that I was the real Qing Princess, I glanced at Yan Beiyan, I didn't want him to look into my eyes at this time, and after we looked at each other for about three seconds, I looked away unnaturally.

Since Yan Beishen doesn't remember anything about me, then he definitely doesn't remember the past between Yan Dingchen and us, although I am innocent with Yan Dingchen, but Yan Beishen doesn't necessarily think so.

I can say that I didn't eat anything for this breakfast, and then I set off with Zhu Si and Yan Beishen to this Qingyuan tree garden.

On the way, I heard Zhu Si tell me about the origin of this tree garden, the tree garden is the largest and best house in Qingyuan, which was originally the private property of Long Xiangye in Mocheng, but because of Yan Dingchen's accident, Long Xiangye was also implicated, but fortunately, this tree garden was a house purchased in the name of his wife, so in the end this house was not implicated.

And the emperor didn't do it all, although he demoted Yan Dingchen to the position of the crown prince, but still let him live in the best house in Qingyuan.

It turned out that Yan Dingchen now lives in his father-in-law's house, but although Yan Dingchen's life was saved, he lost the opportunity to return to the court forever.

I clearly remember that when I was still in Qingwang's Mansion, I saw a letter written by Yuheng to Yan Beishen in Yan Beishen's study, one of which said that the prince's biological mother was not the queen, and I took it for granted that since Yan Dingchen was not born to the queen, it was definitely not the emperor's son, so I always thought that this was the reason that would lead to the fall of Yan Dingchen.

But then I asked Yan Beishen about this, and he told me that although Yan Dingchen was not the queen's own son, he was undoubtedly the emperor's own son.

In this way, even if this matter is exposed, it is actually the queen who has suffered a heavy setback, Yan Dingchen will fall from the position of the prince at most, but he will not be reduced to the point of being degraded to a concubine.

It seems that Yan Dingchen's matter is also a mystery, but I don't really care about him.

"What are you thinking?" Zhu Si walked up to me at some point.

I glanced up at him, "It's okay, we'll be in the tree so soon." ”

The reason why I am so sure that I have arrived is because there is a towering tree that extends from the inside to the outside, and the reason why this tree garden is called an arboretum is also because of this huge ancient tree.

Our group was at the forefront, but after arriving at the tree garden, Yan Beishen stopped.

"What's wrong? Why not go in? "Could it be because Yan Dingchen's resignation was inseparable from Yan Beishen's inseparability back then, so now he wants to go in to see his eldest brother, and he feels a little guilty in his heart?

Zhu Si and his entourage had already advanced to the tree garden at this time, and I was accompanying Yan Bei to the outside of the tree garden.

"What is the relationship between you and the former prince?"

Unexpectedly, Yan Beishen asked me this question, and I opened my mouth, but found that I couldn't find the right words to describe the relationship between us.

"Forget it, let's go first." Yan Beishen didn't know what he was thinking, so he paced in on his own, and I had to follow closely.

But then again, there wasn't even a gatekeeper in this tree garden, and we didn't see any maids after we entered, so my doubts grew bigger and bigger.
