Chapter 30: Jing Zhaoyin

Qin Zhuen didn't know how he got out of the Yan family. In a trance, he seemed to hear that Yan Wenkuan stayed with him for one night, and he didn't know how to answer, but he suddenly realized that he had already ridden out of the city on a horse.

Sanshou forcibly grabbed Qin Zhuen's reins and dragged him off the horse. Otherwise, Qin Zhuen might have been riding a horse and galloping wildly, and in the end, either the horse was exhausted to death by him, or he was dragged down by the horse.

At this moment, it was already dark, and the inn that the master and servant had invested in was the small shop opened by the Qiu family father and son who met Yan Tian for the first time that day.

Shopkeeper Qiu immediately recognized Lord Qin, and while beckoning his son to hurry up and serve some hot soup and rice, he personally stepped forward to serve, and asked with a smile: "I don't want to see Qin Daguan again since last time." I don't know what happened to that little brother Tian. Thanks to the help of the two last time, Qiu has been thinking about ......"

Brother Tian? Isn't it Yan Tian who was disguised at the beginning? Sanshou hurried to see Qin Zhuen, and sure enough, he saw that his master's face and expression gradually turned into mourning, and the corners of his eyebrows and eyes were almost drooping to the ground.

"Boss Qiu, prepare two upper rooms for us, and then burn the house hot."

As soon as Sanshou's words came out, Boss Qiu immediately patted his head and confessed: "I'm confused, it's freezing this day, shouldn't I have made a charcoal pot earlier." So saying, he hurried down to prepare.

The ears are clean in the end, but it can't change Qin Zhuen's funeral-like mood at this moment.

Sanshou sighed, reached out and grabbed the largest chicken leg on the table, and gnawed on it wistfully.

……

After Qin Zhuen walked out of the Yan family in despair, Yan Wenkuan wanted to say something to his daughter. But I didn't know how to speak for a while. He is the father, and some girls have to say that their mother is convenient in the end. But Yan Tian has no mother, she grew up like this since she was a child. Yan Wenkuan doesn't know much about his daughter's part of the mentality as a girl's family. He felt a deep powerlessness at every moment. It comes from the powerlessness of an old father who wants to try his best to protect his daughter but finds that he is not omnipotent.

Yan Tian's face did not move, and even with a smile that was more calm than usual, he said goodbye to his father with several courtesies, and under the old father's unspoken and worried gaze, Shi Shiran turned back to the small courtyard where she lived.

Qin Zhuen's marriage proposal today seemed to her to be nothing more than a nonsense to stir up the public. The son of the eldest princess, the emperor's nephew, a character who wants the wind and the rain, has been accustomed to seeing the noble girl in Beijing who has low eyebrows and smooth eyes since she was a child, and suddenly met a wild girl like her who does not follow the steps and the time, and she feels fresh.

Yan Tian lowered his eyes and laughed at himself as he walked, the young man under the moon that night may be the same as her in Qin Zhuen's eyes, it is just an illusion of a mirror......

……

The capital, the princess's mansion.

Princess Xiangning looked closely at a painting under the lamp. The green grass is golden, and a woman in red wields a sword like a fly.

"The princess is looking at this portrait again?" Mama Jin came in with a bowl of milk, "I just came out of the palace, I have been with the Queen Mother for these days, and I don't say anything about rest when I come back." ”

"What's so tiring to accompany your own mother?!" The princess took the milk and drank it all, then turned to look at the portrait, "It is said that this is painted by the great ancestor of the Qi family, the first Ning Guogong." The woman in the painting is Empress Seichi when she was young. At that time, Empress Shengzhi was only a county lord and was titled Tai'an. ”

"Empress Shengzhi is a man of great wisdom." Mama Jin took the bowl and said with a smile.

"There is not only great wisdom. Great-grandmother also took advantage of the right time and place! Only then can she achieve great things as a woman. It's a pity that her fate is impermanent, and her old man died of illness before she could enter Beijing. Subsequently, his great-grandfather, Emperor Shengwu, died of excessive sadness within a few days. His eldest son, my imperial grandfather, Emperor Xingwu, entered Beijing and ascended the throne.

"Speaking of which, these can be regarded as the great luck of the Qi family! It is rumored that Emperor Shengwu had a great feud with the great-ancestor of the Qi family, and Empress Shengzhi even shot him with an arrow. If Emperor Shengwu did not die halfway through the year, but directly entered the capital, but did not know that the Qi family would be awarded the title of Yipin Guogong Mansion at that time?

"If it hadn't been sealed, maybe it wouldn't have been the end of the day...... Oh, blessings and misfortunes are relied upon, and misfortunes and blessings are lurking. Seon lost his horse, but he couldn't tell whether it was a blessing or a curse......"

"Princess!" Mama Jin frowned and stopped, "How many years have you been here, why do you still mention it?" ”

Princess Xiangning smiled without saying a word, looking up at the painting.

Mama Jin sighed: "I know, princess, you have admired Empress Shengzhi since you were a child......"

"Not only worship, but at one point I wanted to emulate. Pity...... Take yourself as a chess piece and take yourself as bait...... But it turns out that it is really very human! ”

"Such a wise woman must be loved by the heavens, and she will take advantage of the favorable time, place and people, and there are very few ...... in the end."

"Of course I know. It's a pity that I don't occupy the right place at the right time! ”

"How could the princess say that! Now is the holy world of peace, what a good time to ......"

"My great-grandmother was born in troubled times, there are Rongdi in the north, there are Uighurs in the west, there are relatives inside, and thieves are rampant, but I don't know that heroes come out of troubled times, this is the best time!"

"The princess was born in the palace since she was a child, and the world is a place of great wealth. The location is unmatched. ”

"Hehe...... Xiang Ning sneered, "but it is also the world's most extreme cage, and you can't escape for the rest of your life." Great-grandmother can gallop in the capital, northwest, and eastern Liaodong. ”

"The princess still has the love of the queen mother! This man and ......"

"Do you know if you don't have the heart to be vigilant?"

"Princess!" Mama Jin's voice suddenly rose, and her eyes were full of fear.

Princess Xiangning lowered her eyes, knowing that she was too agitated and forgot her form for a while. Then the momentum was retracted, and the woman who was as sharp as a knife just now disappeared completely, and a graceful and peaceful beauty sat quietly in the same place.

She looked at the portrait of Empress Shengzhi, and then asked Mama Jin another thing with a smile: "Arne really told you that you want to move to Luozhou?" "It's as if the cynical woman never existed.

"It's not just that he's moving to Los Angeles!" Mama Jin deliberately covered up the shocking conversation just now, so she smiled a hundred times brightly, "He also said that he would take you and me to Luozhou together, so that we can retire there......

Saying that, Mama Jin couldn't help but laugh. Even the princess couldn't help but laugh.

"Do you want to provide for the two of us in Luozhou?"

"Not really! I've got the old bones upside down. Worthy of the word pension. But princess, you are in your prime, this Arne, can even say the words of retirement?! ”

The princess looked at Mama Jin and was very happy, laughed for a while, and then lowered her eyes and sighed softly: "This stupid child! Growing up, he was a solid eye. looks clever and eccentric, acting treacherous, but in fact he is the most simple and kind child. Being able to say this kind of thing this time, it seems that the city of Luozhou really moved his heart. And so seriously......"

"Is it a girl who makes him serious?"

Xiangning nodded.

"Can't you?" Mama Jin was a little surprised, "A few years ago, I also said that he should find a serious girl with an innocent family background to marry back." He gave me a good beating. There is also the second girl from the Ding'an Hou Mansion, although she is a concubine and her status is lower, but I look like she talks well, and she is also infatuated with Arne. But he didn't look down on others. ...... all day" Mama Jin suddenly stopped and glanced at the princess.

"I only linger in the flower streets and willow alleys all day long, and hang out with some prostitutes? You don't have to cover it up for him, he never tried to hide it himself. The eldest princess's only son eats, drinks, and is lustful, and he is the first-class overlord on the streets of the capital...... Don't say it's me, even the emperor and the queen mother have heard of it......"

"You can rest assured of this. No matter how much Arne is messing around on his face, he knows it in his heart. You will never make a story or bring back something that is not on the stage to make you angry. If it's really because of a girl this time, she will definitely be innocent. It's a small family...... It doesn't matter. This is up and down, whose door is not a small door in front of the eldest princess's mansion? ”

"You don't have to say nice things for him first." The princess laughed, "as if he could bring people back with him." People don't necessarily want to. ”

"Yo! The only son of the eldest princess, who is not in a hurry with the ladies of all the families in Beijing? What's more, it's a small rural woman in Naluo Prefecture? ”

When the princess heard this, she lowered her eyes so that people could not see her emotions: "But she is not a small girl......

Mama Jin couldn't help but be surprised: "So...... The emperor already has a letter there? ”

The princess picked the corners of her mouth, but she didn't know whether to laugh or mock: "Arne wants to take us to Luozhou for retirement, but this can't be done." However, it is said that his mother-in-law is big, and his mother-in-law will naturally plan for him......"

Three days later, the Yamen of the prefect of Luozhou. Yan Wenkuan received the holy decree and promoted him to the fourth rank Jing Zhaoyin, and brought his family to Beijing within a month to thoroughly investigate Fang Yuting's case......

Promotion, entry into Beijing, hand-picked by the saint...... Everything seems to be an unprecedentedly honorable glory. But Yan Wenkuan frowned, and seemed to be vaguely aware of a hint of impending wind and rain in this matter......

……

The eldest princess also talked casually, but she didn't think that her son, who had been a master of the flower field for a long time, was really rejected by the girl in Luozhou. Seeing Sanshou carrying back a half-dead Qin Zhuen like a piece of wood, the eyes full of decadence, the beard and the old man, like a porcupine with a thorn, the princess sighed secretly.

Although his son is a wonderful, as a parent, he should be saved.

She sat opposite Qin Zhuen, brushed the dog's head that had been oiled and beaten because she hadn't washed for a few days, and only said: "The emperor has issued an order to order Yan Wenkuan and his family to enter Beijing soon, replace Bao Yingbai, and serve as Jing Zhaoyin." ”

Sure enough, Qin Zhuen's eyes slowly focused, and then he finally had a glow, and suddenly a carp stood up, and he actually came back to life again.

"Mother, what you said is true?"

The princess thought, "Otherwise, there is no salvation......
