Chapter 214: Relationship (5K, with Pink 1740+)
Zhou Huaixuan's voice was deep and low, although it was close to his ears, it seemed to come from a distant sky, and there were even rumbling echoes echoing in Sheng Siyan's ears.
Sheng Siyan's heart tightened, as if a big hand grabbed her heart tightly, and then pinched it hard, pinching her full heart, and instantly filling her entire mind.
She wanted to scream and laugh, and she wanted to cry and make a fuss, and her mind was chaotic, but she couldn't make a sound in her throat.
Her body trembled for a while, curled up in Zhou Huaixuan's arms, and her hands grabbed his front more and more tightly, as if she was about to grasp the last straw.
Zhou Huaixuan didn't say a word, and caressed her behind her back with one hand, finally calming her down.
Sheng Siyan had just recovered from a serious illness, and after experiencing such strong emotional fluctuations, she felt a little dizzy, and she fell into his arms without speaking.
Zhou Huaixuan was not used to saying such things, he quietly changed the topic, and said slowly: "In this way, the matter of your life experience was jointly exposed by Niu Xiaoye and Grandma Zheng. โ
Sheng Siyan slowly left Zhou Huaixuan's embrace, sat up straight, wiped the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, and nodded, "It's these two people." He added: "Also, they didn't hear the truth about the condition of the first emperor from my father, do you think any of them will do everything possible to see the condition of the first emperor?" โ
Sheng Siyan thought of her three inferences about the cause of the first emperor's death.
She always felt that someone else had entered the palace that night, and it was with the help of someone particularly powerful in the palace.
At that time, she couldn't figure out why the man deliberately entered the palace at night, but guessed that it might be related to the change in the condition of the first emperor.
But now Sheng Qiye's words. confirmed her conjectures.
But according to Sheng Qiye's statement. There are too many people who are suspicious.
is not only the former prince, Zheng Suxin. Even the Guogong Mansion, Dali Temple, Shangshu, and Shilang can't escape their involvement.
Everyone asked about the condition of the first emperor, but they hid the people who really had thoughts.
Zhou Huaixuan knew that Sheng Siyan still remembered the real murderer of the first emperor.
After all, if the real murderer is not subdued, Sheng Qiye will have the possibility of carrying the black pot again.
โโฆโฆ The matter of the first emperor, don't pay attention to it for the time being. With me, no one dares to touch your father. Zhou Huaixuan felt that it was better to ignore that matter now.
Sheng Siyan thought for a while, nodded and agreed, "Okay." โ
Zhou Huaixuan said again: "Don't take the recent rumors in the capital to heart, leave them to me." โ
Sheng Siyan was stunned. Only then did I understand what Zhou Huaixuan was talking about.
It should be said that she is "charming" and "seducing" Zhou Huaixuan......
She was naughty for a while, stretched out a green finger, nodded on Zhou Huaixuan's chest, and said in a manly voice: "What rumors? Is this it? Yanran looked back and squinted at him.
Although his face is still immature, it is natural and charming, without a trace of impurities, and Zhou Huaixuan's breathing is heavy.
Sheng Siyan was startled and hurriedly retracted his fingers. "I'm just kidding." Brother Zhou, don't take it to heart......"
Zhou Huaixuan took a deep look at her and grabbed her hand. He put it on his lips and sniffed deeply, and said expressionlessly: "It's okay in front of me." But don't do that in front of others. โ
Sheng Siyan: "......"
Zhou Huaixuan stood up and was about to leave, but when he was leaving, he turned around and asked her again: "How do you plan to deal with Niu Xiaoye?" โ
Grandma Zheng is not easy to deal with, after all, she is the grandmother in charge of the Wu Guogong Mansion and the eldest daughter of the Zheng Guogong Mansion, and her identity is not ordinary.
And she was for the prince at that time to find out the news, which seemed to be reasonable, unlike Niu Xiaoye, who poked this matter out completely for her own selfish interests.
Especially Sheng Siyan still treats her as a friend......
Sheng Siyan thought for a while, tilted his head and said, "I don't ask for anything else." As long as she gets fat again, I'm not to blame for the past. โ
Zhou Huaixuan raised his eyebrows, "As long as that's the case?" He felt that Sheng Siyan was too soft-hearted.
Sheng Siyan smiled meaningfully, "Trust me." This punishment is worse than any punishment. If you kill her with a single sword, you will cheapen her. โ
Besides, she is now turning against Niu Xiaoye, Niu Xiaoye is the daughter of a businessman, and it is impossible to frame her again.
Zhou Huaixuan didn't quite understand the truth in this, but since Sheng Siyan said that it was better, of course he wouldn't bother her. - Anyway, if you don't think it's enough in the future, just increase it.
"So how do you make her fat?" Zhou Huaixuan muttered, "Do you want to arrest her and desperately stuff her with something to eat?" Same as feeding pigs? โ
Sheng Siyan smiled, "Brother Zhou, you are really interesting...... That's not true. She said: "Niu Xiaoye used to grow so fat because of chronic diseases. Later, my father cured it, and then he lost weight. โ
Zhou Huaixuan raised his eyebrows.
That would be even more unforgivable.
This is not only not knowing gratitude, but also taking revenge.
That's no way, I really have to let her "fat" go back.
"Do you have a way?" Zhou Huaixuan asked.
Sheng Siyan blinked and said with a smile: "I have carefully looked at my father's prescription for treating her illness. Just reverse it. But," she was a little worried, "she is not sick now, how can she take those medicines?" โ
"Well, you don't care about that, just fry the medicine and give it to me." Zhou Huaixuan said.
"Not now. I'll give it to you tomorrow. Sheng Siyan thought about it, it was not convenient to go to the pharmacy now, and she was also afraid that Sheng Qiye would know about it, saying that she was naughty......
"Okay, then I'll go." Zhou Huaixuan stood up, glanced back at Sheng Siyan, and saw that the color on her cheeks was really bright like peach blossoms, and he was a little worried about her body.
When I left the Shengguo Mansion, it was already full of stars.
He and Zhou Xianbai galloped on the streets of the capital.
They have a special token that allows them to walk the streets during curfew.
Zhou Xianbai just didn't expect that the eldest prince would still return to the Shenjiang Mansion.
He thought that the eldest prince would rest in the Shengguo Mansion again tonight......
However, he thought that Sheng Qiye had already returned, and the eldest prince probably had no excuse to go to Sheng Guogong's mansion often, let alone stay overnight. I can't help but feel sympathy for the eldest prince. I was thinking about what way to help the eldest son.
Zhou Huaixuan returned to the Divine General's Mansion. went straight to his own listening to the rain pavilion and rested for the night.
Before dawn the next day, he went out alone and came to the vicinity of the Niu family's house in Cheshui Hutong to observe the family.
There are quite a lot of people in the Niu family, from the master to the subordinate.
The house is big enough.
With the identity of the imperial businessmen who have only been in the house for a few years, they can get to this point, and there should be people behind them who can do it.
There is no one behind him, and if he wants to accumulate such a family business on his own, it will take at least fifty to one hundred years.
And the Niu family. It seems that it only took less than ten years to become the number one among the imperial merchants in the capital.
Zhou Huaixuan didn't wait long before he saw two horses coming from the corner of the street, one of the people on the horse was Wang Yixing, and the other didn't know him.
After the two dismounted, the door of the Niu family came out to greet them and called the other person "uncle".
Then he should be Niu Dapeng, the eldest son of the Niu family, that is, Niu Xiaoye's brother-in-law.
Zhou Huaixuan casually glanced at Wang Yixing again, and saw that his face was full of joy, and he seemed to be in a good mood. His eyes couldn't help but flash.
"Yixing, I'm done today. Let's just have a light meal in the house. Niu Dapeng smiled and said back.
Wang Yixing nodded, "Then it's bothering." Hopefully things will go smoothly today. โ
The two were just about to enter the corner gate, when a girl rushed out of the corner gate.
"Big brother! Brother Wang! The girl had a round face, big eyes, a straight nose, plump lips, and a slightly plump figure, but not bloated.
"Xiao Ye, why did you run out?" Niu Dapeng smiled and nodded her forehead.
Niu Xiaoye smiled heartily: "Brother Wang hasn't come to our house for a long time, today is finally expensive to step on the ground, how can you not come to greet it?" Saying that, he was blessed with another blessing to Wang Yixing.
Wang Yixing was really in a good mood, he smiled and said, "Xiao Ye doesn't have to be so polite, didn't I come?" โ
Niu Xiaoye raised his head and stared at Wang Yixing's elegant and gentle face, tilted his head mischievously, and said with a smile: "Brother Wang looks very good." Is this a happy event? Brother Wang, but there is a happy event in the family? โ
Niu Dapeng also looked at Wang Yixing carefully, nodded with a smile, and said, "Yes, I said why are you so good at talking today, and you are here." โ
When there is a happy event, most people are willing to share it with others so that everyone can be happy for him.
Wang Yixing's wish was granted, and he didn't hide it, and besides, he had a deep relationship with Niu Dapeng, and he didn't hide it from him, smiled gently, and said in a low voice: "Yes, there is indeed a happy event." After a pause, the smile on his face gradually expanded, "My brother-in-law promised to help me go to the Sheng family to propose." โ
"Ahโโ?!h Niu Xiaoye never expected this reason, and he couldn't control it for a while, so he cried out in a lost voice.
Wang Yixing's brother-in-law is King Zhao.
How could King Zhao agree to Wang Yixing marrying Sheng Siyan, an orphan girl whose parents are unknown?! - It can't be!
Niu Dapeng's eyes widened, his neck stalked forward, he leaned in front of Wang Yixing, looked at him carefully, and said, "You're not serious, are you?" Sheng Jia ...... Grand Girl? She's a righteous daughter whose parents are unknown! Do you want a future? Will your family agree? โ
Thinking of the reaction of his family, especially his sister, the smile on Wang Yixing's face faded.
โโฆโฆ As long as my brother-in-law agrees, the whole family agrees. There was a hint of toughness in his voice, which had never been done before.
Niu Xiaoye unconsciously twisted the pale pink Ruyi silk silk around his waist with both hands, and forcibly squeezed out a smile on his face, "Then congratulations to Brother Wang and the grand girl......" The voice was already lower and hoarse than usual.
Niu Dapeng glanced at Niu Xiaoye, stood in front of her quietly, and smiled at Wang Yixing: "Then when will you go to propose?" When the time comes, you can set up a wine and sing a show, and have a good time! โ
"Duchess Sheng Guo has just given birth to a son and is in confinement. My brother-in-law said that when the Duchess of Sheng Guo finished her confinement, she would go to Sheng Mansion to propose marriage. Wang Yixing said as he followed the Niu family's maid into the corner gate and went inside first.
He came to Niu's house today to do business for King Zhao, and he didn't have time to delay outside the door.
Niu Xiaoye didn't follow in, she stood in front of the corner door, stunned.
Niu Dapeng looked at her appearance and sighed. Said: "It turns out that you haven't died yet......"
Niu Xiaoye bit his lower lip. Looking at Niu Dapeng. Said sadly: "...... Big brother, I can't die in my life. โ
"Let's go inside." Niu Dapeng silently grabbed her shoulders and went in with her.
Compared with the excited mood when she came, her love was obviously much lower.
Zhou Huaixuan saw this scene from a distance, and a faint light flashed in his narrow eyes.
Leaving the Cheshui Hutong where Niu's house was located, Zhou Huaixuan returned to the Shenjiang Mansion.
"Master, the eldest prince is here and says he wants to see you." A small servant replied at the door of Old Man Zhou's outer study.
Old Man Zhou put down the teacup in his hand. Stunned: "So early? - Let him in. โ
Zhou Huaixuan walked in.
Steward Zhou retreated with the waiter, and before leaving, he also took the door of the outer study with him, and personally guarded the door, not letting others approach.
Old Man Zhou watched Zhou Huaixuan walk in with a cold face, and couldn't help but shudder, muttering, "Who made our eldest son angry?" โ
Zhou Huaixuan sat in front of Old Man Zhou's bookcase, knocked on the bookcase, and said, "Grandfather, tomorrow the third prince of the Shengguo Mansion will wash the third, you can go too." โ
"I'm going?!" Old Man Zhou slammed the book in his hand onto the table. Pointing to himself, he said, "Xisan is a woman, what are you going to do with me as an old man?" โ
"Go propose." Zhou Huaixuan's voice was flat and authentic. reminded Old Man Zhou, "You promised." โ
"I promised, but on terms. Don't forget, the Sheng family must prove that the Sheng family has no blood relationship with our Zhou family, and I will help you propose. Old Man Zhou glared at Zhou Huaixuan, "Why are you in such a hurry?" Can't wait?! โ
"yes, I can't wait." Zhou Huaixuan said lightly, very stubborn.
"Can't wait a month?! You won't ...... No...... ...... the eldest girl" Old Man Zhou suddenly thought of a possibility, and actually stood up in surprise and joy, "Am I going to hold my great-grandson?!" โ
Zhou Huaixuan was drinking tea with his head down, and when he heard the words, he made a "poof", and a sip of tea was sprayed on the placket of Old Man Zhou.
"Huh? No? - It's not that you're in a hurry?! What a bastard! Old Man Zhou glared at Zhou Huaixuan's beard, very dissatisfied, and looked down at his clothes, "This robe is just on the body." How can I still wear it if you spray like this?! โ
Zhou Huaixuan simply put down the teacup, looked at Old Man Zhou's disappointed face, and said calmly: "King Zhao wants to help Wang Yixing propose, if you don't want to get on the bar with King Zhao, just take a step ahead." โ
"King Zhao promised to help Wang Yixing propose?!" Old Man Zhou paused back, sat back heavily, his eyes narrowed, "Why did King Zhao propose marriage for Wang Yixing?" Does he know the background of the grand girl? โ
"Is there anyone in this capital who doesn't know?" Zhou Huaixuan asked rhetorically.
"It's a bit tricky." Old Man Zhou thought for a while, "Although there are hundreds of female families in the family seeking glory, it is not appropriate for us to conflict with the royal family at this time." โ
They had just brought down a Changyuan Marquis Mansion, which was the Empress Dowager's maiden home.
And King Zhao was brought up by the Empress Dowager, and he was closer to the Empress Dowager than his biological mother, Concubine Jiang Gui.
If they get on the bar with King Zhao again, everyone will say that they are deliberately working against the Queen Mother.
Especially Emperor Xia Qi, who has just ascended the throne and has not yet gained a stable foothold, will definitely not let go of this, and must make a big fuss.
And the Divine General's Mansion doesn't want to mix with either side at all.
Zhou Huaixuan nodded, "So grandfather should have gone to propose marriage earlier." This will also make them retreat. โ
Old Man Zhou thought for a while, stretched out five fingers, and flipped back and forth in front of Zhou Huaixuan.
"What do you mean?" Zhou Huaixuan pursed his lips.
"Ten times. You're going to play chess with me ten times. If you agree, I will propose to you tomorrow. Old Man Zhou's eyes flashed with a sly light.
Although he succumbed, but if he didn't squeeze some benefits from Zhou Huaixuan, wouldn't he give in in vain?!
"Five times." Zhou Huaixuan said lightly, "Don't promise me to propose marriage by myself." โ
"You โโ!" Old Man Zhou slapped the table angrily, "It's too presumptuous!" - Five times is five times! Say yes and don't regret it! โ
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Zhou Huaixuan's mouth, and he nodded heavily, "I will never regret it." โ
"Good! You go to Sheng Guogong's Mansion first and talk to Sheng Qi in advance. I'll bring your Geng Ti to the door tomorrow and ask him to get his things ready. Old Man Zhou stroked his long white beard, "I want to see with my own eyes that Miss Sheng has nothing to do with our Zhou family, so I will be hired." โ
Zhou Huaixuan raised his eyebrows, "Okay." If she has a relationship with our Zhou family, then I have nothing to do with the Zhou family. As he spoke, he got up and stood up, bowed slightly, and walked away.
Old Man Zhou happily looked at Zhou Huaixuan's departing back, and felt that he had finally managed to defeat this eldest grandson, and he almost hummed happily.
After a long time, he understood what Zhou Huaixuan meant! โโI couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat......
โฆโฆ
After Zhou Huaixuan left Old Man Zhou's outer study, he did not go back to the Tingyu Pavilion in the inner courtyard, but went to his outer study in the outer courtyard.
Most of his important stuff is placed here.
He walked over to the bed in the inner room, leaned over and pulled open the small cabinet at the head of the bed, and took out a small mahogany box from it.
When the box was opened, there was a golden silk diamond half-moon hairpin lying inside.
That was the time, when he rescued Sheng Siyan from the cold pool in the palace, the hairpin that fell from her head.
He was going to return it to Sheng Siyan, but that night, when he saw Wang Yixing at Sheng's house, he left quietly.
Taking the hairpin and looking at it over and over, Zhou Huaixuan put it back and locked the mahogany box back into the small cabinet at the bedside.
After thinking about it, he still left the Shenjiang Mansion with another flat mahogany box and took Zhou Xianbai to the Shengguo Mansion.
Sheng Siyan has been waiting for him.
When she got up in the morning, she rushed to the pharmacy and dispensed the special "medicine".
In order to let Niu Xiaoye slowly gain weight unnoticed, Sheng Siyan took a lot of thought to come up with a recipe.
Then grab the medicine according to the prescription and fry it first.
