Zhao Queyu called Erniu over and asked carefully. Halfway through hearing this, Zhao Queyu's eyes turned red: "How can your father be ruthless and replace your sister?" ”

Erniu has a precocious maturity beyond her age, and said in a low voice: "Everyone has no food to eat, and sooner or later they will starve to death." In doing so, you can live a few more. ”

"Why didn't he die himself." Zhao Queyu was still angry: "Why do you let your daughter eat in your mouth?" ”

The second girl's eyes were also red, and her voice was choked: "My father said that he and his younger brother survived and could marry a daughter-in-law to inherit the lineage in the future." The girl was meant to get married. The world is difficult, so I should be reincarnated early. ”

But she also wants to live!

Who knew the horror and horror she was when she was swapped into the hands of a stranger?

The second girl covered her face with her hands, and tears welled up from between her fingers.

Zhao Queyu actually cried too, and reached out to pull Zhao Xiyan's sleeve: "Sixth cousin, fortunately you saved them." ”

Zhao Xiyan felt sorry in her heart, and softly comforted: "The second girl is really good." It was she who made a disturbance that day that alarmed Meng Yushi and me. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to save her. ”

"People have to be like this, no matter what time it is, they have to have a heart."

Zhao Queyu wiped her tears with her sleeve and said to Zhao Xiyan: "I like this second girl." Sixth cousin, give her to me! After a few years, I asked her to be my big girl. ”

Without waiting for Zhao Xiyan to respond, the second girl had already knelt down: "The seventh girl is a piece of beauty, and the slave is very grateful." However, when the slave was rescued that day, she had already made up her mind that she would follow us girl for the rest of her life. The life of a slave can die for our girl at any time. ”

Zhao Xiyan's heart was touched, he stretched out his hand to help the second girl, and said softly: "Since we have come to my side, it can be seen that we have the fate of master and servant." I don't have much power, but I can always keep you fed and clothed. You don't always have to think about dying for me, I have to live a good life, a long life! ”

The second girl laughed amusedly, revealing two rows of sparse teeth.

Erniu is actually ten years old, but long-term hunger has caused her to be stunted. looked like a girl who was only seven or eight years old, and her teeth were not neatly replaced.

Zhao Queyu was not annoyed when he was rejected: "It's okay, you follow the sixth cousin wholeheartedly, I can grab someone, but I can't grab this true heart." The name of Erniu is a bit dirty, how about I give you a new name? ”

The second girl hurriedly said: "Thank you, Seventh Girl." ”

The Zhao family is a scholarly family, Zhao Queyu has been studying since childhood, quite talented and learned, and said with a smile: "Although you are young, your mind is transparent, and you are still strong after hardships." Let's call it Amber! ”

Amber is a flying insect that is instantly wrapped in magma and formed over a long period of time. The painful ordeal also makes amber have a brilliant beauty beyond ordinary gemstones.

The second girl has never read a book, I don't know what amber means, and I thought to myself, this seventh girl is strange enough, how can you call her a tiger pounce? Could it be that she was born like a tiger?

However, the second girl quickly thanked her.

From this day on, the second girl officially had a name, called Amber.

The rest of the young girls didn't know what it meant to be named, but they were all envious. When the two girls left, they immediately surrounded Amber.

"Sister Erniu, are we going to call you Sister Tiger Pounce in the future?"

"Actually, I still think Sister Erniu sounds good."

Amber straightened her waist in style: "You are all obedient and obedient, and learn the rules well." Whoever behaves well, the girl will give her a name. ”

After Zhao Queyu left, Zhao Xiyan went to the boudoir.

The carriage was tiring all the way, and I was quite tired after resting. Zhao Xiyan's head was on the pillow, and his eyelids were closed, but he couldn't sleep.

Xu Jing should have entered the palace by now and met Emperor Yongming Empress Su and the crown prince!

He must not be tempered, and he will make trouble when he enters the palace.

Zhao Xiyan's heart fluctuated, turned over, thought for a while, and finally slowly fell asleep.

……

At this time, Xu Jing had already entered the palace.

More than 200 years after the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty, the imperial palace was repeatedly rebuilt and renovated. In particular, the first emperor liked luxury the most. Sitting on the dragon chair for decades, he has never stopped recruiting people.

Build palaces, build courtyards, repair imperial tombs, the treasury is empty, the people are not living, and the people are everywhere. This is all the "credit" of the first emperor during his reign.

The current Emperor Yongming has only been on the throne for a few months. Dajin has reached the current situation, in fact, it is not to blame Emperor Yongming.

However, it is also an indisputable fact that there are many grievances, displaced people are everywhere, and the court is unstable. Emperor Yongming didn't think about how to stabilize the country, and still blindly greedy for beauty and pleasure, and looked like a faint monarch.

Murong Shen led the way in front, with a tall and straight posture and a steady and powerful pace. It's like being the owner of this luxurious palace.

Xu Jing retracted his gaze and glanced at Murong Shen in front of him, and snorted coldly in his heart.

Murong Shen seemed to notice something, and turned his head to glance at it: "The prince is a little restless, and if you go for a while, you will arrive at the Blessing Palace." ”

The Golden Luang Hall is the most majestic palace in the Imperial Palace, and the grand court meetings, daily morning dynasties, and grand palace ceremonies are all held in the Golden Luang Palace.

The Fuyou Hall is smaller than the Jinluan Hall and is the daily living place of Emperor Yongming. Emperor Yongming summoned his courtiers on weekdays, and he was also mostly in the Blessing Palace.

Outside the Fuyou Palace, Murong Shen stopped. A small chamberlain with sharp eyebrows entered the hall to pass the word, and after a while, a person came out.

This person is about forty years old, with white skin and beard, quite decent appearance, and some of the elegance of a scholar. It is the most favored chamberlain Ma Gonggong around the Son of Heaven.

Ma Gonggong still has the kind appearance of smiling when he sees people, and first arches his hand at Xu Jing: "I haven't seen you for a few months, and the style of the prince is better than in the past." ”

One hundred thousand taels of silver quickly shortened the distance between Ma Gonggong and Xu Jing.

Xu Jing didn't know how to pretend, and returned the salute with a smile: "This son has always been thinking about Ma Gonggong!" In the future, in the palace, there will be more opportunities to get close. Father-in-law Ma doesn't ignore this son. ”

Ma Gonggong rushed to Meng Yushi again.

Meng Yushi is famous for his stinky temper, and he arches his hands with a straight face, even if he returns the courtesy.

Ma Gonggong didn't care, and said with a smile: "The emperor is a little tired today, so he rested after lunch." Please ask Meng Yushi and Shizi to go to the side hall to wait first. ”

Xu Jing and Meng Yushi responded together and went to the side hall with Gonggong Ma.

This "wait" is two hours.

Emperor Yongming had lunch, Xu Jing and Meng Yushi rushed into the palace, but the rice was not eaten and the water was not stained.

Meng Yushi and Xu Jing have been together day and night for a month, and naturally know that Xu Jing is a master who likes Chinese clothes and delicacies and never has the slightest grievance, so he subconsciously glanced at Xu Jing.

Unexpectedly, Xu Jing was very calm, and there was no anxiety, anger and grievance.

Meng Yushi's heart moved quietly.

Xu Jing, who is impulsive and irritable and fickle, is not blindly reckless.
