Chapter 64: A Resignation
When night fell, the people of the whole mansion were in a hurry, but no one made a sound easily, and the deputy prime minister's mansion fell into a strange image that was both lively and quiet.
While everyone was so busy, there was a woman sleeping soundly in the main room of Yigui Hall, and the pot of wine at noon was still playing a role.
It wasn't until the door frame made a loud noise that the woman woke up from her sleep.
Huan Ci looked at A-Yao who broke in with sleepy eyes, and muttered, "I'm scared to death, what are you running?" ”
"Girl, hide quickly, the emperor is coming?"
Huan Ci got up listlessly and rubbed his sleepy eyes lazily. But in the next moment, the woman jumped out of bed and cried out in surprise, "Who are you talking about?" The law of patriarchy? ”
"That's him. I listened to other people in the house. Didn't you sneak here, girl? I heard that the prince has raised an army, you can't let him catch it! Ah Yao hurriedly helped her get dressed, and muttered in her mouth.
Huan Ci also panicked, and put on his shoes in a panic.
Why did the Zongzheng Law of the big night suddenly come? Didn't you know she was here?
In an instant, she suddenly remembered what she had said to Fu Shen after she was drunk during the day, and she was immediately ashamed and annoyed.
Could it be that the man felt that he was being molested, so he told Zong Zhenglu about her here.
The more Huan Ci thought about it, the more depressed he felt, but now that his life is the most important, he should slip away first.
After getting dressed, the two of them ran towards the inner courtyard. It is said that there is a small gate in the back, and Huan Ci intends to escape from there.
Just when the two of them ran all the way to the vicinity of the inner courtyard, they suddenly saw a group of people standing outside the door, standing solemnly.
"Girl, this is a group of eunuchs, right?" Ah Yao poked her head out and took a sneak look.
"Really?" Huan Ci curiously followed her with half of her head poked out and looked over there.
I saw a few eunuchs standing in front of the Hanging Flower Gate, and a few people standing on the verandah, looking like guards from the costume.
This battle frightened Huan Ci, she pulled Ah Yao and was about to run to other places, when she suddenly caught a glimpse of a woman kneeling on the ground.
Huan Ci opened his eyes wide and looked closely, and the person turned out to be Liu Rao. Although the man standing in front of her only leaked a corner of his clothes, Huan Ci intuitively felt that he was the Zong Zhenglu who visited late at night.
I don't know what Liu Rao said when she raised her head, which made Zong Zhenglu suddenly angry and shouted someone to come, and the voice was so loud that Huan Ci shuddered.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Rao began to kowtow incessantly, lying on the ground and begging for mercy loudly.
Huan Ci raised his head and glanced at Ah Yao, and he also saw an accident in her eyes.
Could it be that Zong Zhenglu is the man that Fu Shen and Liu Rao said? Because Liu Rao was pregnant with Fu Shen's child, Zong Zhenglu came to the door? If Liu Rao was originally a person from Zongzheng Law, this would make sense.
Liu Rao came to her because of the Muyuan case before, I am afraid that it is the meaning of Zongzheng Law. Zong Zhenglu originally planned to use this matter to deal with Zong Zhengche, but he didn't expect Zong Zhengyuan to cover up the matter for Zong Zhengche.
In order to win over Fu Shen, Zong Zhenglu made Liu Rao his concubine. But the old relationship between the two of them was not broken, and there was still contact in private, and Fu Shen didn't dare to resist, so he connived at the two of them. Who would have thought that Fu Shen accidentally made Liu Rao pregnant, but he was found by Zong Zhenglu.
"Humph! Deserve. Huan Ci scolded softly.
A-Yao scratched her head: "Who is the girl scolding?" ”
"Of course I was scolding Fu Shen. For the sake of his future, he was willing to be a turtle, but now he has caused an accident, how do I think he will end? ”
"Girl, why can't I understand you? What are you talking about? A-Yao was even more puzzled.
But the more I thought about it, the more angry I became. When she thought of Fu Shen being like the other women, she felt inexplicably lost. But she is the one who gives up her prudence, so what qualifications does she have to lose? Although they were close to Puzhou, she had heard that that kind of thing didn't mean anything to men at all. Was it because she was the one who took the initiative at the beginning, so he didn't refuse?
Thinking of this, Huan Ci sighed deeply, causing Ah Yao to look sideways again and again.
"Why sigh again? Isn't it okay? ”
"I'm wondering, if Zong Zhenglu doesn't want this child, will Fu Shen intercede with him?"
"Huh? What child? "Ah Yao is really confused by the second monk.
"Of course, it's the child in Liu Rao's womb. Liu Rao is pregnant, and it should be Fu Shen's child. ”
"What does this have to do with the emperor?" A-Yao asked with a frown.
After hearing no response for a long time, she glanced at Huan Ci several times in succession, and couldn't help but tentatively say, "Girl, you won't be jealous, right?" ”
These words made Huan Cideng's eyes widen, and he said very quickly: "What nonsense? Which kind of vinegar do I eat? He deserves to make me jealous too? Don't talk nonsense. ”
Ah Yao pouted: "At the beginning, I don't know who pulled me to not sleep in the middle of the night, sat on the roof and looked at the southwest direction, and kept asking me, 'I don't know what happened to him' and 'Will he hate me', girl, you obviously have a ghost in your heart." He just abandoned me, and now he yells at me. With that, A-Yao began to pretend to wipe her tears.
At this time, Huan Ci panicked, pulled her and said, "Grandma, I was wrong, I shouldn't yell at you." You're right, you're right. ”
"Everything?"
The sudden man's voice made Huan Ci shrink his back sharply.
She slowly looked back at Fu Shen, who appeared behind her at some point, and almost bit her tongue: "What? ”
Fu Shen frowned and looked at the woman who was a little disheveled, and scolded, "What are you running around?" ”
"What are you murdering?" Huan Ci originally felt that he was holding his breath, but now he felt even more depressed when he was murdered.
"I'll send you back." The man grabbed her and was about to leave.
Huan Ci suddenly blushed with shame, struggling to pull out his hand.
At this moment, an unfamiliar man's voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Xuanmo." Zong Zhenglu squinted at the woman's back, and greeted Fu Shen with an expressionless face.
In this mansion, Fu Shen can be called so, except for her, I am afraid that there is only Zongzheng Law. Huan Ci instantly squeezed Fu Shen's hand, but refused to look back.
"Miss Huan, I know it's you, so there's no need to hide." Zong Zhenglu said softly.
Huan Ci raised his eyebrows slightly, and hid behind Fu Shen and poked his head out to look at the man.
Now she wears men's clothes, and she dresses very differently than before. She should have only met Zong Zhenglu once, that is, at that palace banquet, so that she could be recognized.
Zong Zhenglu seemed to know what she was thinking, and chuckled: "On the day that Miss Huan and her cousin got married, you and I had met. I was aware that someone was staring at me all the time, and she would only avoid it when I looked at her, so I was impressed by this person. ”
Huan Ci blinked awkwardly. There's no way, Zong Zhenglu is really too good-looking, and everyone has a love for beauty, how can she be blamed?
But she didn't intend to admit her identity because of this, if Zong Zhenglu used her to threaten her father, wouldn't she become a sinner of the Huan family?
"Miss Huan doesn't have to be like this." Zong Zhenglu lowered his head and smiled, "I have sent someone to write to inform King Dingyuan of your whereabouts, I only hope that Miss Huan can pass on a message for me, so that your father can see my sincerity." ”
"I don't know what you're talking about." Huan Ci said coldly.
Just as the two were talking, she saw that the group of guards had dragged Liu Rao away directly. Fang Cai Liu Rao glanced back at her, and the tiredness on her face was particularly conspicuous.
For no reason, she felt that the woman became like this because of the law of the sect.
Zong Zhenglu also heard the movement, and his expression suddenly became gloomy and terrifying when he looked back at her. After glancing at the woman, he looked at Fu Shen again: "When does Xuan Mo plan to go to the state?" ”
"Then it depends on when Your Majesty lets me go?" The man said in a deep voice.
Huan Ci stole a glance at him. Is he going to merge with the state? The state is not peaceful now, what is he going to do?
She didn't ask in front of Zong Zhenglu, but still pricked up her ears to listen to the two of them.
Zong Zhenglu smiled in his eyes and said softly, "Then let's leave tomorrow." Go and come back quickly, I am waiting for your good news. ”
"Wechen thanked Your Majesty." Fu Shen bowed.
At this time, Huan Ci's head was completely exposed, and he stared at Zong Zhenglu with big eyes.
Zong Zhenglu looked at her without dodging, and made a very demagogic voice: "Miss Huan will go with Xuan Mo tomorrow." As long as King Dingyuan surrenders, I will never blame the past. It's just that King Dingyuan doesn't even want to see my people now, and I still need Miss Huan to help me pass the word. Even for your father's sake, you should consider my words. ”
Huan Ci raised the corners of his mouth at him and said softly: "Yes, I promise you." ”
As long as you can slip out of here, it's okay to promise him first. When the time comes, it will be her business to say that it is not her business. Besides, even if she passed the word, her father had his own considerations, and it was better than staying here and being afraid.
"It's a deal." Zongzheng law bears the hand.
Then he glanced back at the eunuch behind him, and said softly: "It's just that I'm in a hurry to go back to the palace to deal with things, and let this person tell you the details of the peace talks." ”
The eunuch hurriedly stood up and leaned over and said yes.
Huan Ci smiled and nodded, and looked at the door in the distance. Fang Cai Liu Rao was dragged out of there, and I am afraid that the matter that Zong Zhenglu will deal with when he returns to the palace will have nothing to do with her.
After bidding farewell to Zongzhenglu, Huan Ci led the eunuch to Yiguitang, and the two chatted until the third watch.
Because he was about to leave tomorrow, Fu Shen was busy sending people to pack his bags, and he was busy until the third watch before he had time.
Hearing that Huan Ci had finished talking with the people left behind by Zong Zhenglu, he personally went to Yiguitang to place the eunuch.
The room was finally a lot cleaner, Huan Ci had already been sleepy, and he wanted to rest, but Fu Shen still sat in the hall and didn't leave, holding a cup of tea and sipping it carefully.
Huan Ci was still thinking about him and Liu Rao, but now when he saw him, he felt unhappy, and deliberately made the things in his hands rattle.
"Ah Ci." The man's sudden gentleness almost tripped over her.
Huan Ci looked at Fu Shen in disbelief: "What do you call me?" ”
