Chapter 229: Spy in Spy (4K, Three More Requests for Pink Tickets)
Sheng Siyan hurriedly returned to the inner courtyard, entered the inner room and said to Zhou Huaixuan: "The second girl of the Wu family is here, I want to see her." ”
Zhou Huaixuan threw the book in his hand on the case, stood up and frowned, and said unhappily: "Is it over?!" ”
One or two come to the door without sending a post, or is it a soft persimmon in the Shengguo Mansion?!
Zhou Huaixuan squinted his eyes, thought unkindly, hugged his arms, leaned in front of the door of the warm pavilion, and quietly watched Sheng Siyan hurriedly look in the mirror in front of the dressing table to make up.
Sheng Siyan took care of her makeup, looked up and saw Zhou Huaixuan's indifferent expression, thought about it, and said with a smile: "Do you want to go with me?" ”
She knew that Wu Chanjuan "thought" about Zhou Huaixuan very much.
Zhou Huaixuan put down his arm and returned to the Taishi chair with an expressionless face and sat down, "I want to take a break." ”
Sheng Siyan smiled and patted him on the shoulder, turned around and went out.
Zhou Huaixuan looked at the shaking door curtain, touched the place where Sheng Siyan patted him on the shoulder just now, the corners of his lips curled slightly, and his tough and handsome facial features instantly softened.
Zhou Xianbai saw Sheng Siyan go out with the maid and mother-in-law, so he opened the curtain and sneaked in, and when he raised his eyes and saw Zhou Huaixuan's smiling appearance, he couldn't help but point to Zhou Huaixuan's face with his finger, and was so surprised that he couldn't speak. - How can the eldest prince show such a gentle expression?! This doesn't make sense!
Zhou Huaixuan glanced at him and put away the faint smile on his lips.
Zhou Xianbai hurriedly withdrew his fingers and said with a smile: "Eldest prince, are you really not going back today?" ”
"Hmm." Zhou Huaixuan picked up the book again and read.
"Uh, do you want to go back and talk to the old man?" Zhou Xianbai asked with some trepidation.
"No, you don't." Zhou Huaixuan turned a page of the book and said lightly.
"Ugh. The little one went to prepare the bedding for the night for the eldest son? Or in the outer courtyard where I used to live? ”
Zhou Huaixuan's hand flipping through the book seemed to pause for a moment. After a while. Only then did he say "um".
Zhou Xianbai was relieved, put on a smile on his face, and ran out happily.
……
Sheng Siyan took the maid and the maid to Cuizhuxuan again.
The courtyard where she lives and Cuizhuxuan are actually in two directions of the Guogong Mansion, so it is quite tiring to walk twice a day.
So this time, Sheng Siyan came over in a sedan chair.
When she came to the flower hall, Sheng Siyan saw that Wu Chanjuan was also sitting in the guest seat with a haggard face, and paused at the door before walking in. Her mood is very complicated.
"Grand Girl!" Wu Chanjuan looked up and saw Sheng Siyan coming, so she hurriedly stood up, suppressed the unhappiness and pain in her heart, and muttered.
She looked at Sheng Siyan and twisted the handkerchief nervously with both hands.
Sheng Siyan smiled, "Second Miss Wu, sit down." And he ordered tea to be served.
Wu Chanjuan saw Sheng Siyan ordering her subordinates over there in a slow and orderly manner, and she became more and more anxious, and hurriedly said: "Miss Shanda, I asked you for something last time, I don't know if I mentioned it to Ling Zun?" ”
Sheng Siyan glanced at her. The head of the jaw said: "I mentioned it." ”
"What did Ling Zun say?" Wu Chanjuan asked anxiously.
Sheng Siyan lowered his eyes and blew the hot tea in his hand, "It's hard to say." You know that, too. A doctor needs to look at and hear the disease. My father hasn't seen Lingtang yet, and he hasn't checked the pulse, so it's hard to say. ”
Wu Chanjuan was a little disappointed, but after thinking about it carefully, what Sheng Siyan said was also right.
If she hadn't seen it, she would pat her chest and say that it was okay, that would be a big talk, and she wouldn't believe that kind of person.
"Then can you please ask Ling Zun to go to Wujiazhuang quickly? My mother's condition has deteriorated recently......" Wu Chanjuan was about to cry anxiously.
Why do you say "again"? Sheng Siyan secretly wondered and asked, "Is that better before?" How did it get worse again? ”
This matter has been holding back in Wu Chanjuan's heart for a long time, and she urgently needs to find someone to talk to.
Sheng Siyan has always been soft and gentle, and has a good pair of ears.
As soon as Sheng Siyan asked, Wu Chanjuan cried.
She covered her mouth with a handkerchief, shed tears fiercely, and then said, "Siyan, can I call you Siyan?" ”
Sheng Siyan choked and smiled lightly: "Of course." Second Miss Wu, you're welcome. ”
Wu Chanjuan nodded, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and said, "Siyan, my mother is so wronged, so pitiful, that King Zhao is too hateful." It was him, so angry that my mother vomited blood several times, and the disease that had just improved worsened again. ”
Sheng Siyan's body was shocked, and the expression on his face stiffened for a moment.
“…… King Zhao? How does it have anything to do with King Zhao? Sheng Siyan was silent for a while and asked quietly.
Wu Chanjuan took a sip of tea, put down the corner of her lips printed with a handkerchief, and said in a low voice: "King Zhao married my aunt's tablet as the original match......
Bang Dang!
The tea cup in Sheng Siyan's hand was suddenly pushed to the ground by her.
The teacups shattered into pieces, and tea flowed around on the turquoise intarsia terrazzo brick floor.
Wu Chanjuan pursed her lips, looking very understanding of Sheng Siyan's reaction, and said, "You're also surprised, right?" When I first heard it, I was as surprised as you did. ”
Sheng Siyan tugged at the corners of his mouth and smiled, "When did this happen?" How did I not know? ”
Although the news spread outside, Sheng Siyan was busy with family affairs these days and didn't know anything about the situation outside.
"It was just the other day." Wu Chanjuan said in a low voice, "I heard that it was granted by His Majesty's decree. There was no big deal, that is, the Zhaowang Mansion had a meal with the people of my grandfather's family. You also know that according to the ancestral teachings, the royal family and the four major princes cannot marry. But I think Aunt Rong has passed away for many years, and the tablet where King Zhao married her entered the door was just a thought of him, so it was approved. ”
"Oh." Sheng Siyan answered quietly, her eyes wandered, although she heard Wu Chanjuan talking there, her thoughts flew far away, and the expression on her face was very trance.
"But the most annoying thing is," Wu Chanjuan's tone changed, and her voice was very high-pitched, "That King Zhao actually talked nonsense, saying that my mother had affection for him, but he only wanted Aunt Rong in his heart...... This kind of bastard said it in front of my father, and my father was so angry that he almost turned his face! ”
Sheng Siyan was taken aback by this, and she shrank her neck back. He asked in a low voice, "Why did King Zhao say that?" ”
"King Zhao did it on purpose!" Wu Chanjuan gritted her teeth and said. She looked around. Seeing that everyone was waiting in the corridor outside the flower hall from a distance, and there was no one else in front of them, he came to Sheng Siyan and said in a low voice: "When King Zhao talked to my mother that day, I listened a little bit. King Zhao seems to be thinking about Aunt Rong...... Ever had a child......"
Sheng Siyan's heart was full of doubts. - King Zhao, what do you mean by that?!
"What about the kid?" Sheng Siyan couldn't help but ask.
Wu Chanjuan snorted, "It's long gone." My mother said that the child died at the full moon and was burned to ashes. Never found again. ”
"Oh." Sheng Siyan responded in a trance again, slightly relieved.
"But later, my mother called me in......" Wu Chanjuan thought of the situation at that time, she felt very uncomfortable, she shook her head, shook these things away, and said: "Later, my mother fainted." My father happened to come to see us from the capital, and King Zhao said those bastard words before. When my mother heard this, she naturally became sicker than sicker. As she spoke, Wu Chanjuan wiped her tears again. Now there is a lot of rumors outside, saying that my mother likes her brother-in-law. couldn't tolerate his sister-in-law, and said that he wanted Aunt Rong to die in the hands of my mother. - Nothing short of nonsense! My mother loves Aunt Rong the most, how can she hurt her? King Zhao didn't know if he was crazy and talked nonsense like this! ”
Sheng Siyan lowered his head silently, not wanting to look at Wu Chanjuan's face.
"Siyan, you help me beg Ling Zun, let Ling Zun go to my mother to see the disease. My mother has been very weak these days, I'm so scared......" Wu Chanjuan pleaded with Sheng Siyan with a straight face.
Sheng Siyan heard so many secrets, her heart was like numbness, she thought about it, and said, "It's late tonight, and it's difficult for us to get out of the city gate." Tomorrow, I'll ask my dad to see if he's free tomorrow. If you have time, go to your Wujiazhuang to have a look. ”
Wu Chanjuan was finally a little happy and laughed, "Sheng Qiye will definitely be able to save my mother when he comes out!" ”
Sheng Siyan hurriedly said: "Not necessarily. Your mother was originally a national hand in Xinglin, and even your mother herself can't cure this disease, my father may not have a way, don't have too much hope. ”
Wu Chanjuan smiled bitterly: "Siyan, don't hit me like this, just make me happy." ”
Sheng Siyan didn't know what to say, so he had to ask, "Then you have been living in Wujiazhuang?" Are you going back to the Mansion of Wu today? ”
Wu Chanjuan nodded, "It's too late today, I want to go back to the Duke of Wu's Mansion this night." I'll go back to Wujiazhuang tomorrow. Siyan, can your father go with me tomorrow? ”
"I'll ask." Sheng Siyan assured her and sent her out.
After Wu Chanjuan left, Sheng Siyan silently walked up to the verandah alone and went to Womei Xuan.
The people who came and went in the verandah saluted her, and she responded lightly, and simply sat down on a railing, looking at the bleak scenery in the inner courtyard in winter.
If she wasn't mistaken, King Zhao should have been suspicious, so he went to Wujiazhuang to question Zheng Suxin.
Does he have eyebrows?
If a qiē is made by Zheng Suxin, what is her purpose? What is the motivation?
Maybe it's really the same as the rumors say, Zheng Suxin is in love with King Zhao? That's why you can't tolerate your sister?
Sheng Siyan always felt that there were some things she didn't know, but she could be sure of one thing now, that is, Zheng Suxin knew the existence of that "child......
If she could know the existence of this "child", she would also know the death of this "child".
In the same way, if this "child" comes back to life, Zheng Suxin should also know.
This can explain why Zheng Suxin put the Shengguo Mansion to death again, right?
Previously, they all thought that Zheng Suxin was threatening to lure Sheng Qiye for the sake of the prince, but now that they think about it, she is simply a "spy in a spy"!
And he is especially good at using other people's reasons to achieve his own goals!
Sheng Siyan figured this out, and remembered that since he saw this Grandma Zheng on the first day, he began to deal with her, so he just wanted to smile bitterly.
Sure enough, there is no love for no reason in this world, and there is no need for hate for no reason......
Thinking that Zheng Suxin might know her identity well, Sheng Siyan shuddered, as if she was being secretly peeped at by a poisonous snake, which made her feel very uncomfortable......
"Miss Shanda, why are you sitting here?" Zhou Xianbai's voice came from behind her.
Sheng Siyan looked back at him, "You went out?" ”
Zhou Xianbai looked like he came from the direction of the second gate.
"yes." Zhou Xianbai looked back at the direction of the second gate and gestured: "I just went to the place where the eldest prince arranged to live in the outer courtyard." The eldest prince will not go back today, but will live in the outer courtyard. ”
Sheng Siyan nodded, got up and said, "You don't have to be busy, I'll find a few more people to clean up the yard in the outer courtyard later." It's the one you used to live in. ”
"Well, the little one was just cleaned up there." Zhou Xianbai said, and followed Sheng Siyan back to Wo Meixuan.
Back in Womei Xuan, Sheng Siyan bowed his head sullenly and entered the warm pavilion.
She held the stove in her hand and sat firmly on the ondol, with a very confused expression on her face.
"What's wrong with you?" Zhou Huaixuan put down the book, walked over to her and sat down.
Sheng Siyan looked up at him and suddenly asked, "Why does the Great Xia Dynasty have an ancestral training that the royal family can't marry with the Four Great Powers?" ”
At first, she thought it was a kind of political balance of power.
This ancestral teachings have indeed achieved the result of such a balance of power.
But rules, like records, are always meant to be broken.
Considering that for a thousand years, no one has been able to break this rule, it is enough to show that it is not just a matter of political considerations.
"Why do you ask this?" Zhou Huaixuan frowned.
"King Zhao married Zheng Xiangrong's tablet as the original match." Sheng Siyan said with emotion, "If it weren't for this ancestral teaching, the two of them would be immortal couples." ”
Zhou Huaixuan shook his head disapplausively, "He can only marry the tablet." ”
"Why?"
"If Zheng Xiangrong is alive, she can't marry King Zhao, it's as simple as that."
"What if they have children?" Sheng Siyan asked in a daze.
"I have to die, too." Zhou Huaixuan said lightly, "The real purpose of this ancestral training to prevent marriage is to prevent people from being born who have the bloodline of the royal family and the four major princes. ”
"Uh, why? Will monsters be born? Sheng Siyan couldn't help but sneer and said, "If you're so afraid, it's better to kill all the people in the Four Great Mansions." After a pause, she thought of another possibility, "Is this one of the reasons why the Sheng family was destroyed?" ”
Zhou Huaixuan thought for a while, "The royal family has a blood oath with our four major mansions. They cannot kill us, and we cannot destroy them. ”
Sheng Siyan tugged at the corners of his mouth, lowered his head, and pondered in his heart. - Zheng Suxin, can't let her have a chance to speak anymore......
How powerful this woman is, she has tasted the bitterness.
Now Wu Chanjuan has taken a fancy to Zhou Huaixuan.
No matter what aspect she says, Zheng Suxin will not let go of herself. If she hadn't been sick, I'd be on the run again......
Sheng Siyan took a deep breath and said to Zhou Huaixuan: "Wu Chanjuan begged my father to treat her mother, and I will go to Wujiazhuang with my father tomorrow." After a pause, she looked at Zhou Huaixuan with hope, "Do you want to go with us?" ”
