Chapter 48: Who Benefits
Sun said: "Uncle Uncle's safe return is the best gift for us." This is our little heart, and we ask the uncle to accept it. ”
It was a three-legged little beast gold tripod with spices in it, but it was not lit.
"This spice can sleep peacefully, and the eldest brother said that he has just come back, and he is afraid that he will not get enough sleep, if he lights this in the room, he will definitely sleep peacefully every day." Zhou Bin explained, "My younger brother also asked for it from the court incense maker. ”
Zhou Jinxuan said: "You guys are really thoughtful, when I was at the border, I really didn't sleep well. So he happily accepted.
After chatting for a while, Zhou Bin and his wife left.
Zhou Jinxuan then went to visit the old Duchess.
"Jinxuan, do you know that your daughter-in-law has done a good thing in your absence." The old duchess mentioned that Lin Yu did not help Zhou Bin be promoted, and how Zhou Jinxuan had been at the border over the years, she didn't even ask.
Zhou Jinxuan knelt there, listening to the old Duchess babbling and talking, although his body was tired, he didn't dare to stand up.
"Ah Yu is not such a person, presumably my mother must have misunderstood." Zhou Jinxuan explained for Lin Yu.
"Misunderstanding? Ask her yourself! This person also has to touch her conscience to speak, although she is in charge of this business now, she doesn't look at who gave her the power. The old Duchess suppressed her anger, "That's it, you only came back today, I won't mention it for now, I'll talk to you in a few days!" ”
Zhou Jinxuan didn't believe that Lin Yu would be bad for Zhou Bin at all, plus there was something going on in the court tomorrow, and it was late today, and he was tired, so he didn't take it to heart, and bowed to the old Duchess and left.
Zhou Zheng was at the Sanfang Zhou Yuan couple at this time.
Feng Sanniang said: "Husband, I heard that the second uncle has gone to visit the uncle, should we also take the child over?" ”
Zhou Yuan was casual, "It's so late, the eldest brother and sister-in-law haven't seen each other for so long, the eldest brother still has to entertain the second brother, if we go over again, I'm afraid that the eldest brother won't have to rest tonight." The horizontal and vertical people are back, and there is a chance to meet, so why rush for a while? ”
Feng Sanniang said: "I'm afraid that others will gossip......"
"No, the eldest brother is also an informal person, and we have left time for the eldest brother and sister-in-law tonight, and they are even happier." Zhou Yuan said, "Sanniang, you can rest assured, you have just done a good job of confinement, and your health is not good, these things can be decided by your husband, don't worry about it." ”
Zhou Zhengzheng smiled: "Don't worry! Three aunts. My dad is tired today, and I don't dare to stay too long. Originally, I wanted to ask how the prince was doing. ”
Feng Sanniang was stunned, "Listening to the people's discussions, the prince seems to be ...... Didn't come back with it. ”
Zhou Zhengzheng nodded, "My father will go to court tomorrow, maybe he will know everything tomorrow." ”
Zhou Jinxuan put the tripod given by Zhou Bin in front of the bed and lit the spices.
Lin Yu smelled the smell and was very uneasy, "Husband, this fragrance ......"
"It's a piece of the heart of the second brother and the second brother and sister, I smell it and think it's good." Zhou Jinxuan was dizzy and fell asleep.
Lin Yu was skeptical, but his eyelids began to droop.
After a while, both of them fell asleep.
The next day, the crown prince's death was finally officially announced in the palace.
All officials and the court must wear white filial piety clothes for three days, and on these three days, there are no festive activities among the people.
The news finally reached Zhou Zhengzheng's ears, she was sitting by the lotus pond, eating mung bean soup, and Qingyun was shaking a fan behind her.
"The prince still hasn't changed his fate. But everything has changed. Zhou Zhengzheng muttered to himself, his eyes solemn.
The crown prince was no longer accused of treason as collaborating with the enemy, but was buried in the name of heroic martyrdom.
Of course, the prince's body is gone, and what is buried is only a mound of clothes.
In his previous life, Deputy General Weng, who reported the prince's treason, died, and he was the one who really collaborated with the enemy and treason, and he was beheaded by the whole family.
But there are too many doubts in this matter, a little Vice General Weng, who did not follow the coach to make meritorious contributions, but went to collaborate with the enemy and treason for no reason, and his family is in the capital, is Vice General Weng a fool?
However, Emperor Qingfeng did not investigate, so he immediately convicted Vice General Weng. It is better to say that it is a conviction, but it is better to attribute all the charges to Vice General Weng.
The Weng family is not a big family, but there are fifty or sixty people, all of whom were killed, and none of them remained.
What is the Emperor going to do?
Zhou Jinxuan also mentioned these suspicions, hoping to find out the mastermind behind Vice General Weng, but the emperor insisted that there was no mastermind behind the scenes, and he didn't give people a chance to investigate at all.
It seems that the emperor is trying to cover up something, or someone he wants to cover.
And Lin Feng and Xiao Guifei didn't say a word in this matter, they seemed to want to show outsiders, and they had nothing to do with them.
As for Lin Zhongchao, the emperor rewarded him, Lin Zhongchao is still His Royal Highness the crown prince, and he is even more popular than in the past - the prince was martyred, and the prince's only blood and blood are more precious, and many ministers with a sense of justice will support Lin Zhongchao because of the prince's high righteousness.
In other words, in this life, although the prince is still dead, Lin Zhongchao's position has become more stable.
Zhou Zhengzheng touched his temples with his fingers, what was going on? What exactly happened at the border gates? Why are things changing?
Of course, Zhou Zhengzheng is happy to see this change, but how this change came about makes Zhou Zhengzheng feel uneasy.
She was suddenly a little scared, she was afraid that in this life, would she and Lin Zhongchao never meet again?
Narcissus walked over, "Grandpa Guo has returned home." ”
Zhou Zhengzheng immediately got up, "Follow me to the study, I'm going to see my father." ”
Only my father knew what was happening at the border.
In the study, Zhou Jinxuan was wearing a crow-blue robe, spreading out and closing the book, his eyes were heavy, it seemed that he couldn't settle down to read the book.
Zhou Zhengzheng ran over, hugged Zhou Jinxuan's hand, and muttered: "Daddy, daddy, my daughter doesn't want daddy to go to the border again." ”
Zhou Jinxuan touched Zhou Zheng's head and smiled handsomely, "Ah Zheng, don't worry, Daddy is home, how can he go to the border again?" ”
"But Daddy hasn't been very happy." Zhou Zheng tilted his head and said, "Daddy, how did the prince die?" ”
Zhou Jinxuan didn't expect Zhou Zheng to know, he only thought she was the naughty and ignorant child, Zhengse said, "Ah Zheng, don't ask about adults, children." What about the female red master that your mother invited for you? Didn't come today? ”
I'm going to drive her away so soon.
Zhou Zheng saw that there was a watermelon on the table, so he took a piece and stuffed it into Zhou Jinxuan's mouth, and ate it himself, "Let Ah Zheng finish eating and then go to be a female celebrity, okay?" ”
Zhou Jinxuan couldn't bear to drive her anymore, frowning and thinking about things.
"Daddy, you have something on your mind, Ah Zheng wants to share it for you." Zhou Zheng still didn't give up, "Ah Zheng has grown up." ”
