Chapter Twenty-Six: Rumors Spread

In the afternoon, Huan Ci had dinner in the Queen Mother's palace, and chatted with the two of them for an afternoon, until after Shen Zheng, the Queen Mother finally felt tired, and the two were willing to let her go.

In fact, they didn't say anything, they were all telling the story of Toru Zongzheng. From his appearance in his mother's womb, to his first schooling, to his crowning. The two of them told her almost all about his life.

Huan Ci sounds very boring, these stories are the same as Zong Zhengche himself, very boring.

But there was another interesting thing that she discovered, that is, Su Wanling's existence.

Since Zong Zhengtou went to Chongwen Hall to study, this person has appeared in almost every story. Whether it is a trivial matter such as Zong Zhengche falling while riding a horse, or a major event such as his crowning ceremony, Su Wanling is always by his side.

It's no wonder that Huan is too careful, if it's just an ordinary family friendship, but the two of them are too close. Huan Ci has also experienced a throbbing age, and she still understands these things.

Regardless of anything else, Su Wanling's expression when he mentioned Zong Zhengche had already revealed a lot of his thoughts. Either she didn't realize what she was thinking, or she didn't hide it.

It's a pity that Huan Ci has no interest in the affairs of the two of them. Where will the royal marriage look at feelings, not to mention that the person is the crown prince. And she doesn't have any friendship with Zong Zhengche, if this family affair is completed, she will also find a way to reconcile in the future. If it can't be done, then it has to be allowed to play its role for a short time. Besides, it is better to ask for others than for yourself, and she and her father still have to think of other ways.

On the way back from the palace, Huan Ci saw many more officers and soldiers on the street. After she went back to inquire about it, she learned that because of the loss of Yanmen Pass, the capital had entered a state of alert, and only allowed to leave the city gate and not enter.

War is not a good thing, let alone a father who is still the main general. Now that the capital is under martial law, and the letter from the state cannot be sent, Huan Cicheng's family is restless and spends a few days in a daze.

The first month passed in a blink of an eye, and Huan Ci ushered in her first spring in Yingdu.

A few days ago, she only glanced at the eunuch named Li Qi in the palace, but the man never appeared after Su Wanling came in.

Her father once said that she would have something to discuss with this person after she arrived in the capital, and now she finally knows where she is, but one has nothing to do recently, and the other is that she can't enter the palace without an edict.

There was nothing to do left and right, so Huan Ci took Ah Yao out for a walk.

But it didn't take long for an angry figure to return to the long street.

Huan Ci thought about what those people said, and he was really shocked and frightened. Somehow, the story of her and Fu Shen's past was spread, and it was a little bizarre.

Ah Yao followed behind her, also with an angry face. I don't know which bastard spread the rumors, but it was actually said that Fu Sanye used to be the girl's male favorite, and the two had already had a relationship.

Thinking of the extremely insulting words spoken by those stinky men, Ah Yao's face turned green with anger. I don't know how the girl can still listen to it, but she listened there for a while before pulling her away.

A pair of masters and servants walked one after the other with sad faces, and no one noticed that the street was much more deserted than usual.

When he walked to the door of Fu Shen's house, Huan Ci subconsciously glanced at it, but found that there were actually two officers and soldiers standing in front of the door.

"What's going on?" She frowned in confusion.

"Doesn't the girl know? They're here this morning, and there's two at the back door. Ah Yao said softly.

They went out in a carriage this morning, but halfway down the road the girl asked the coachman to go back, so they didn't know. Officers and soldiers have been here since yesterday afternoon, and she thought it was because of martial law in the capital, so she didn't tell the girl. But now, it doesn't seem to be what she thought.

Huan Ci also vaguely guessed.

Fu Shen is now Zong Zhengyuan's person, but he suddenly got involved with her, I am afraid that Zong Zhengyuan is suspicious and intends to investigate him.

But for no reason, how did this get out?

Huan Ci sighed deeply, it was really a wave of unevenness. But I didn't go out for a few days, and rumors spread everywhere.

It's just that she has always had a bad reputation, and she doesn't worry about this. But this time, Fu Shen was also involved, and I don't know what the intentions of this rumor-monger are.

"Who's going to deal with us at this juncture? Is this person coming at you, or at the third master? Yao asked in a low voice behind her.

Huan Ci frowned. At this time, it shouldn't be Zong Zhengtou who did this. As for Zong Zhengyuan, Huan Ci felt that he was not so indistinguishable from the important.

Suddenly, Huan Ci remembered what Su Wanling said that day. She had been to Bingzhou, and she met Fu Shen's cousin, and she looked at it and was a little interesting to the prince.

When she was in Bingzhou, although she and Fu Shen hid it from everyone, it was not difficult for someone with a heart to want to know. If Su Wanling knew about this through Fu Tian, it would be very reasonable.

Huan Ci once bumped into Fu Tian, but she didn't take this matter to heart, who knew that she would fall into such a situation three years later.

"I'm not afraid to raise lice too much, and this rumor is a mixed bag. No matter who came at us, we were too slow to react this time. Whatever, whatever. Huan Ci shook his head and put the matter behind him.

As for the rest, she only cared about whether Zong Zhengche would change his mind because of this matter. If he wants to repent of his marriage, he has nothing to say. After all, the Li family once regretted marrying because of this incident, and by the way, he poured more dirty water on her.

It's justβ€”

Huan Ci looked at the two officers and soldiers standing in front of Fu Shen's door.

I don't know what happened to the man. If you have anything to do with her, I'm afraid Zong Zhengyuan will rip off his skin.

After returning to the house, Huan Ci moved a reclining chair and placed it in front of the east ear room, intending to listen carefully to the movement next door.

"Girl, is this going to work? It's usually a place where no one stays, right? Ah Yao looked at her with complicated eyes.

"You know what?" Huan Ci cleared his throat, "This ear room is connected to his main room, and it is already the closest place." You may be able to hear people moving around here. ”

Ah Yao shook her head helplessly, and went back to the room to find her a hand stove and blanket.

Huan Ci stayed on the recliner for an afternoon, but there seemed to be no one next door, and he didn't hear a call for a long time.

It was when it was warm and cold, and at night, it was cold outside. After dinner, Huan Ci sat on the chaise longue for a while, and although there was a small stove next to her, she soon became too cold to stand it.

"A-Yao," she gestured at A-Yao, and whispered a few words in her ear as she approached.

At the other end of the wall, a set of stone tables and stone benches were placed in front of the west ear room of the house, and now there was a man in Xuanyi sitting on the stool, who had not moved all afternoon.
