Chapter 143: Favor (The First Seeking Powder)
Zhou Chengzong was sweating profusely by Old Man Zhou's words, and he didn't dare to look up at Old Man Zhou's eyes, so he could only lower his head and say, "I know, thank you for your teachings." Β±Top Β± point Β± small Β± says, β .2β"
"It's good to know." Old Man Zhou nodded, "Go ahead." β
Zhou Chengzong arched his hand, went out backwards, and followed the attendant who came from the palace to deliver the decree into the palace.
β¦β¦
Zhou Huaixuan and Sheng Siyan returned to the courtyard where they lived, and as soon as they sat down and didn't say a few words, they heard Zhou Xianbai hurrying over, and said to Zhou Huaixuan in a low voice: "Eldest son, Uncle Shengshangxuan has entered the palace." β
Zhou Xianbai's voice was not very low, Sheng Siyan also heard it, she looked at Zhou Xianbai, frowned, and said, "Enter the palace?" For what? β
"I don't know for the time being. But it should be that the uncle woke up, and the saint knew that he believed it. Zhou Xianbai glanced at Zhou Huaixuan and replied hesitantly.
They mobilized the crowd to take Zhou Chengzong to the Shengguo Mansion, and everyone in the family knew about it, and it was not surprising that the palace knew about it.
Zhou Huaixuan said lightly: "It's okay." He waved his hand to let Zhou Xianbai go down.
After Zhou Xianbai left, Zhou Huaixuan stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looked at the bright spring light shining through the window, and asked Sheng Siyan: "...... Have you put away all the furnishings and furniture in the old Shengguo Mansion? β
Sheng Siyan was a little strange, and didn't understand why Zhou Huaixuan suddenly asked this question, but she still told him: "No, it's all in place." It used to be the same, and it is what it is now. Except for my grandfather and grandmother's courtyard, which was converted into a main hall, the furnishings are not the same as before. β
"Really? Each yard? Zhou Huaixuan was a little puzzled.
Sheng Siyan thought for a while, "But my grandfather's yard is bare, and there is no furniture." But that's not what we do. It was after the Sheng family was beheaded. Someone came to the palace. Removed everything from his yard. β
At that time, they all thought that the Sheng family was dead, and Sheng Qiye was still in the temple and didn't get any news, so those people could move the things in the whole courtyard of Sheng Shi at will.
In addition to Sheng Shiquan's yard, other yards were actually searched, but they didn't find what they wanted.
Sheng Siyan also thought of this when he went to the old Sheng Guogong Mansion with the Wang family and Sheng Qiye to clean up.
But at that time, she thought it was someone fishing in troubled waters. Just stealing some property from the Sheng family.
On the contrary, it has become an ownerless thing, and it is not as much as it can steal.
Later, the Sheng family stopped in the mansion, and the Queen Mother decreed that she was not allowed to be buried, so many thieves were so scared that they didn't dare to go to the old Sheng Guogong Mansion to steal things......
Zhou Chengzong was so interested in Sheng Shiquan, and now even Zhou Huaixuan was interested in Sheng Shiquan, Sheng Siyan understood that this maternal uncle was probably not a simple person.
It's a pity that the Sheng family members who are familiar with Sheng Shiquan are all dead, and Sheng Qiye, the Sheng family who has been kept in the temple all the year round, is like outsiders like them, and they don't know Sheng Shiquan at all.
Zhou Huaixuan nodded, this made sense.
He followed the man in black to the old Shengguo Mansion yesterday. Hiding in the tree outside the wall of the Shengshi courtyard and sneaking inside, his eyes were sharp. In the dark night, he still sees things as usual, and naturally sees the situation in the yard clearly.
When the man in black pushed open the door, Zhou Huaixuan saw the emptiness of the house on the tree, and he was also stunned for a moment.
It turned out to be moved away by the palace people.
Zhou Huaixuan squinted, did he still want to run to the palace?
β¦β¦
In the imperial study of the palace, Emperor Xia Zhao sat behind the bookcase, watching Zhou Chengzong slowly walk in, slightly stunned.
Zhou Chengzong has been sick for half a year, and he has really lost a lot of weight.
He bowed and saluted, "Holy." β
"Zhou Aiqing, sit down." Emperor Xia Zhao choked and raised his hand to point to the back chair opposite the bookcase.
Zhou Chengzong arched his hand and sat down with a robe on his shoulder.
Emperor Xia Zhao said with emotion: "Zhou Aiqing's serious injury can be fully recovered, it is really a blessing, and it is also the blessing of my Great Xia!" β
Zhou Chengzong hurriedly said: "The saint has a reputation. The minister's slender body does not dare to be big. β
"Zhou Aiqing, don't be too humble." Emperor Xia Zhao said with a smile, "You will not forget these achievements in protecting your family and defending the country and expanding the territory for Great Xia." β
Zhou Chengzong bowed his head slightly, and thanked Emperor Xia Zhao for his praise.
The palace maid brought a tea tray and put one in front of Emperor Xia Zhao, and Zhou Chengzong also put one in front of him.
Zhou Chengzong brought it over with his left hand, his hand kept trembling, and the tea in the teacup in his hand kept turbulent, as if it was about to spill out.
Emperor Xia Zhao was stunned, "Zhou Aiqing, ...... your hand?" β
Zhou Chengzong smiled bitterly: "Qiqi Sheng, the minister's injury is actually not completely healed. Although the minister woke up and was not confused, his left hand trembled so much that he couldn't use any strength from the moment the minister woke up. β
Emperor Xia Zhao gasped in disbelief, "Isn't it?" What the hell is going on with this left hand? β
"Sheng Guogong said that it is because the blood congestion in the brain has not completely dispersed, and there are blockages in some places, so that the left hand will be hindered."
"Is there a way for Sheng Guogong to cure you? Zhou Aiqing, you are the god general of Great Xia, you must not have anything to do! Emperor Xia Zhao said anxiously.
Zhou Chengzong is famous, and just flying his banner can deter those alien barbarians on the border.
If he doesn't work, I don't know what the small countries around Great Xia will think......
Zhou Chengzong also knew what Emperor Xia Zhao was worried about, and he said frankly: "Holy Lord, even if my injury can be cured, it will be a big injury, and I will no longer be able to lead troops to fight." β
Emperor Xia Zhao's expression was miserable, and he bowed his head and said: "Aiqing's body is important, I will take care of it." After a pause, he said: "This is also my Great Xia national fortune, and I can't complain about others." β
Zhou Chengzong's heart moved, and said: "Holy Lord, the injury suffered by the minister was killed by a traitor, and that person has not been subdued so far, and the minister is worried day and night. β
Emperor Xia Zhao nodded, and said with a gloomy face: "I know, I have been sending people to track it down, but I can't find it even if I check it back and forth. β
"Let the Holy One worry about it." Zhou Chengzong stood up and saluted, "However, the minister's injury is a trivial matter. The national fortunes of Great Xia. It's the big deal. β
Emperor Xia Zhao looked up at him. "If Aiqing has anything to say, just say it directly."
Zhou Chengzong said: "The minister is burdened by this injury, and he will no longer be able to lead troops to the battlefield to fight in the future. He also asked the saint to demote him, remove the post of god general, and replace him with the dog Zhou Huaixuan. β
Emperor Xia Zhao's heart thumped when he heard this, and he kept applauding secretly. But he didn't dare to show it on his face, and said with a smile: "Huaixuan? He's too young, isn't he? β
"I'm not young anymore. He was married late, in fact, he was twenty-seven. At his age, his son and daughter are about to marry, and he has a son who is just six months old. Thinking of Bao's cute and caring little appearance, Zhou Chengzong couldn't help but smile.
Emperor Xia Zhao looked at Zhou Chengzong's appearance, obviously thinking of his little grandson Ah Bao, and felt a little jealous for a while, coughing and saying, "Yes, Ah Bao has been six months." It's been a long time since I've seen this kid. β
"I'm tired of the saint's thoughts. That kid is very skinny, and Huai Xuan is strict with him. But this kid is small. But intimate. When I took the medicine today, he still held the sugar jar and stuffed it for me, afraid that I would be bitter. I praised him, but I didn't praise his father, and he was in a hurry to give his father a reward. Although he can't speak, he is much smarter than other children. Zhou Chengzong talked about Bao's matter, and he talked endlessly.
Emperor Xia Zhao was so heart-wrenching when he heard this, he couldn't wait to go to the Shenjiang Mansion immediately, and drink a few big bowls of bitter medicine in front of Bao, and then enjoy the surprise and joy of the baby Jinsun giving him candy to eat, he must have warmed his heart......
Emperor Xia Zhao showed a leisurely look and sighed softly.
Zhou Chengzong smiled: "The saint doesn't need to worry. When the eldest prince is older, after getting married, the saint can also hold his grandson. Suddenly remembered that the eldest prince was only three years old, and Emperor Xia Zhao wanted to hug his grandson, but he had to wait, so he said: "Holy Lord, in fact, you can choose a concubine." After choosing a concubine, give birth to a few more princes and princesses, and you can still hold them happily. β
When he first became a father, he was happy for a while......
Emperor Xia Zhao glanced at him, "I said that I would never accept a concubine, are you letting me break my word?" As he spoke, he changed the subject, "The matter of the gods is indeed a major matter of the country, and we must not be careless." In this matter, I will personally go to the Divine General's Mansion and talk to General Zhenguo about this matter. You go down first. β
Zhou Chengzong was stunned for a moment, and said: "The saint doesn't need to be condescending, just declare Huaixuan to enter the palace." "You don't need to go to the Divine General's Mansion to speak, right?
Emperor Xia Zhao was obviously a drunkard, but at this time, he was annoyed and angry by Zhou Chengzong's words, and he glared and said, "I want you to approve it?!" β
Zhou Chengzong hurriedly arched his hand and said, "The minister doesn't dare." The minister retired. And he left the palace.
β¦β¦
The news of Zhou Chengzong's awakening soon spread in the capital.
"What?! He actually woke up?! β
In the dimly lit room, a man with a gloomy face kept throwing a knife at the dartboard on the wall.
ββ¦β¦ Isn't it good to be a fool? You have to wake up. The man sneered, "Then I'm sorry." β
β¦β¦
The second master of the Zhou family and the second grandmother of Hu took the family to the Shenjiang Mansion to visit Zhou Chengzong.
They made it clear that they followed the big house and returned to the Shenjiang Mansion, and they were very polite to them up and down.
β¦β¦
Old Man Wu came to Zhou Huaili's General's Mansion and said to him: "Your uncle is awake, don't you go to see him?" β
Zhou Huaili hurriedly said: "I was about to go, and my grandfather came." β
Old Man Wu nodded, "Then let's go together." What about your daughter-in-law? He asked Grandma Wu San again if she was going.
Grandma Wu San came out and saluted: "Dad, you guys go, just help me bring a gift." β
If Zhou Chengzong is still a fool, it doesn't hurt if they all go to the Divine General's Mansion to see him.
But now that he woke up and remembered so many things, Grandma Wu San felt that she had no face to see people.
Old Man Wu knew that she was thin-skinned, and said, "Then you won't go." I can't say that I will give up this old face and go to see Chengzong. Not to mention anything else, you owe a lot of favors! β
Grandma Wu San's heart moved.
"I heard that Chengzong's injuries are not completely healed, and I want to go and see them." Old Man Wu smiled meaningfully.
