Chapter Twenty-Eight: Good News Arrives
At this time, in the west ear room, Huan Ci was close to the corner of the wall, crowded with a bunch of sundries.
The place was full of boxes, and there wasn't even a place to put your feet on.
She listened to it for a long time, and didn't dare to go out when the movement outside disappeared, for fear that Liu Rao would kill her.
"Come out."
Fu Shen stood in front of the door for a long time, and gradually lost his patience.
"Is she gone?" Huan Ci poked his head out.
"What are you afraid of?" Fu Shen looked down at the sneaky woman who was bent over, and his face unconsciously smiled.
"Am I scared?" Huan Ci walked out confidently, his mouth pursed high.
Suddenly walking into the cold wind, she shivered uncontrollably.
"It's so cold, I'm going back."
"How are you going to get back?" Fu Shen looked at her curiously.
"Isn't that easy?" Huan Ci smirked.
It didn't take long for a smiling face to slowly rise from the side of the wall, and that person was Huan Ci. Fu Shen, who was stepped on by her shoulder, had a gloomy face to the extreme, but he still carefully held her legs.
"Girl!" Ah Yao had already been squatting by the wall for a long time, and when she saw the face of her county lord at this time, she was simply happy.
She happily moved the ladder over and waited for the girl to come back from the wall.
Huan Ci climbed up the wall in embarrassment, lowered his voice and said to Fu Shen: "I'm leaving." ”
Fu Shen only felt angry and funny at this time, and looked up at her clumsily disappearing into the wall.
Because she is still Huan Yuan's daughter, his father's wisdom and martial arts really haven't learned at all.
The man smiled and shook his head, and quickly turned back to his room.
In the courtyard at the other end, Huan was lying on the bed with a wilt, constantly remembering the act he had just taken.
What the hell does he mean? Are you playing with her, or do you really want her to repent of her marriage?
The more Huan Ci thought about it, the more he felt a headache, and he kicked the quilt in frustration.
Ah Yao yawned sleepily on the bed in the outer room. After the girl came back from Fu Sanye's house, she laughed and was angry for a while, but when she asked her, she didn't say anything. The cold wind has been blowing outside for too long today, and she can't hold it anymore.
Soon after, the sound of their master and servant breathing could be heard in the room.
The next morning, when the two were sleeping darkly, someone outside suddenly slammed on the door.
"Girl, Your Majesty has sent you into the palace, have you gotten up?"
"It's broken, it's broken." Ah Yao rushed down from the bed and hurriedly ran to her bedside to hand her clothes, "I'm afraid they didn't ask you to enter the palace because of those rumors, right?" ”
"Afraid of what?" Huan Ci slowly put on his clothes, "The soldiers will come to block the water and cover the earth." Besides, don't you know, did I have a good reputation before? ”
"They won't regret their marriage, will they? I think you're a good match for the prince, girl. ”
"You're clumsy." Huan Ci pursed his lips and obediently let her help him groom and dress.
I don't know why, she doesn't like Zong Zhengche from the bottom of her heart, but she can't say that she hates it.
On the way to the palace, Huan Ci lifted the curtain several times to look outside. There were fewer officers and soldiers on the streets today than there were yesterday, which made her very puzzled.
It wasn't until he was sent to the Queen Mother's bedroom that Huan Ci knew the reason.
It turned out that it was my father who drove the enemy out of Yanmen Pass in one go, and the capital was finally relieved.
At this time, Zong Zhengyuan went to the court, so he invited her to the palace of the Queen Mother.
Huan Ci looked at the Queen Mother's kind smile and knew that all this was because of his father's victory.
"Huan girl," the Queen Mother held her hand and patted it, "The mourning family heard some rumors in the palace a few days ago, and it really hurt you." I don't know which heartless one actually spread such words out. Don't worry, the emperor has sent someone to the market to investigate, and he will give you justice in the near future. ”
"Thank you, Queen Mother." Huan Ci pretended to smile gratefully. But she was really happy at this time, her father had just won the battle, and her mood was much better.
"Li Qi, you go and bring the pair of bracelets I found yesterday." The Queen Mother said to the eunuch beside her.
Huan Ci pretended to raise his eyes inadvertently and looked at him, and happened to glance at him.
The eunuch named Li Qi smiled at her, then turned and went somewhere else. Not long after, he walked over with a box in his hand and handed it to Huan Ci with both hands.
"This is a little bit of the mourning family's heart, you can accept it." The Queen Mother held the teacup and said softly.
Li Qi opened the box at the right time, and a pair of priceless bracelets appeared in front of him.
Ah Yao and Huan Ci glanced at each other, and immediately understood, and stepped forward to take the box.
Huan Ci had a smile on his face, got up and bowed obediently to thank the Queen Mother for her kindness.
Ignoring him when the rumors spread a few days ago, he immediately changed his attitude after receiving the good news from his father last night. It seems that the Queen Mother also hopes that Zong Zhengche can have his father as her father-in-law, and she is still more eager for her own grandson.
In the following time, Huan Ci was dragged to talk to her for a long time, which was nothing more than something related to Zong Zhengche.
When the two were stiffly looking for a topic in the room, Zong Zhengyuan suddenly swaggered in, followed by Zong Zhengche and Zong Zhengtang.
After the three of them saluted the Queen Mother, Huan Ci hurriedly got up and saluted them.
She seemed to inadvertently glance at Zong Zhengche, and the man was also staring at her with heavy eyes.
"Ding'an, I know that the events of the past few days must have caused you trouble, so I specially called you here. Rest assured, I have sent someone to investigate this matter, and I will give you an explanation soon. Zong Zhengyuan's voice was very strong.
At the moment, however, beneath the surface of his kindness lies a deep disgust.
This matter was deliberately spread by people, but he was convinced that Dali Temple Qing was cautious, and he personally admitted it the day before yesterday.
It's really unthinkable, one is the treasure he thought he had found, and the other was the daughter of a king with a different surname that he hated to get rid of.
Huan Ci was extremely disgusted with him, she pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled, and got up again to thank him.
"I have already decided, I will send Fu Shen to Puzhou tomorrow, he can no longer stay in the capital."
Before Huan Ci could react, Zong Zhengtang's eyes were already red: "Your Majesty, you also said that it was a rumor, why bother to treat Lord Fu like this?" ”
Seeing Zong Zhengtang's appearance, the Queen Mother sighed softly: "Tang'er is reasonable. If you demote him to an official position, won't it boost the confidence of that villain, and I don't think this matter is appropriate. ”
"My nephew also thinks it's inappropriate, isn't this a grievance for no reason." Zong Zhengche echoed on the side.
Zong Zhengyuan achieved the desired goal, but he didn't forget to test Huan's words: "Ding'an, what do you think should be done with this matter?" ”
"Lord Fu is His Majesty's courtier, so naturally His Majesty has the final say." Huan Ci said softly.
If Fu Shen is degraded at this time, it will indeed make outsiders think about it, and I don't know what kind of heart this person has.
