Chapter 1342 The Last Dream(1/2)
As winter entered, the carriages and horses escorting the remnants of the Zhao family finally slowly drove into Nanxun Gate.
Quanjiu was sitting in a car with several palace people. Everyone opened the curtains and looked out, but she remained silent and kept her mouth tightly pursed.
She had great fear in her heart because she always felt that Zhao Jin was bound to harm her.
And Yan Rong, Yan Rong is by no means a generous woman.
But she won't sit still, she already has a plan...
Not long after entering the city, the carriage suddenly turned around.
But in front, the procession of civil and military officials was still moving forward along Imperial Street, except for her carriage.
"how?"
Quanjiu was agitated and said to himself: "You are here so soon, Zhao Jin, Yan Rong... come here, kill me if you can. But if you can't kill me, sooner or later you will be stepped on by me.
"
She looked around warily until the carriage finally drove into an ordinary three-entry courtyard.
There are several soldiers guarding the door.
She noticed that these soldiers were somewhat disabled, and they were probably not elites. It was more likely that guarding the house was a good and leisurely job, so she gave it to them.
Then this is probably where Zhao Jin and Yan Rong planned to imprison her.
However, when the carriage stopped in the courtyard, Quan Jiu got out of the carriage and turned around to see an old woman being helped out in the front yard.
This old woman has white hair and walks on a crutch. Her figure looks familiar.
Taking a closer look, it seems to be...Xie Daoqing?
Quan Jiu was stunned for a moment at first, feeling so ridiculous.
Xie Daoqing just wears ordinary clothes and lives in such an ordinary yard?
What’s even more ridiculous is...she strangled Concubine Yang Shu to death and ordered her body to be pushed into the sea in order to become the Queen Mother. But in the end she still had to live with Xie Daoqing?
Quan didn't believe it for a long time, turned around and looked around, suddenly hoping to see Zhao Jin and Yan Rong.
Xie Daoqing stared at Quan Jiu's carriage for a while. After several palace attendants came down carrying cloth bundles, the carriage left.
There is nothing gold or silver.
Xie Daoqing sighed in disappointment and said, "You are here too. Qi'er is inside, go in."
Quanjiu opened his eyes wider and felt more and more surprised.
She was surprised that Xie Daoqing had adapted to the life of such an ordinary family so quickly and had no grace at all.
What to call "Qier", it used to be called "Guanjia".
"Is this the Duke's Mansion?" Quanjiu asked, "I heard... he was named the Duke of Ying."
"This is the Duke's Mansion of the Kingdom of Ying. Kaifeng is so barren, no wonder the late emperor did not want the three capitals..."
Xie Daoqing muttered and walked away.
Quanjiu looked around again before walking towards the backyard.
Before reaching the east wing, she smelled a strong smell of medicine. She opened the door and went in. First she saw a woman sitting on a small stool crying. Then she turned around and saw Zhao Fu lying in the back room.
Quan suddenly felt a sense of discomfort again, took two steps back, looked back at the door.
She suddenly looked forward to Zhao Jin or Yan Rong coming.
This is enough to prove that she is worthy of competing with them.
Instead of spending the rest of your life guarding this subjugated slave, trash, sick man, and idiot.
"Yes, they don't know I'm coming yet. Maybe Li Xia will summon me first..."
At this time, the woman sitting in the room turned around, a little surprised, stood up and called: "Saint? Oh, madam."
"Wang Qinghui? Why are you here?"
"Back to Madam, after we arrived in Kaifeng, His Majesty Li... rewarded the Duke with this courtyard, and allowed the Duke's concubines to stay voluntarily."
Quanjiu asked: "How come you are the only one left?"
Wang Qinghui shed tears again and responded: "All the concubines were originally here, but later they heard that Tang law allowed them to reconcile. At first, they were afraid that they would not be able to survive in Kaifeng, but later they each found their husband's family... In the end,
Even Yu Xiurong left."
Quan Jiu thought that Yu Xiurong was also stunning, and couldn't help but ask: "Who is she married to?"
"It seems that she changed her name to a general named Song. She said that because the general's surname was Song, she could express her grief..."
Quanjiu couldn't bear to listen to Yu Xiurong's coaxing words and asked, "What about you? Why don't you leave?"
Wang Qinghui lowered his head and said nothing.
"That's all, I know you are loyal."
After Quanjiu said that, she saw Wang Qinghui taking her luggage and putting it in the main room, but she was unwilling to share the room with Zhao Yu, and said: "Wait a minute, the Duke is sick, don't disturb him, I will stay in your room."
inside."
"Yes, ma'am."
…
Compared with the past, the days after the subjugation of the country were much poorer.
Fortunately, Li Xia was not a Jurchen, so he did not embarrass them too much.
They are not even prohibited from leaving the house, but they are not allowed to leave Kaifeng.
Quan has been waiting for Zhao Jin and Yan Rong to come for a long time, but they never arrived.
As Zhao Fu has not yet died of illness, she can only continue to live with Wang Qinghui.
Sometimes when I wake up late at night, I can hear Wang Qinghui muttering the word "Your Majesty" in his sleep.
"His Majesty……"
Quan Jiu sneered in his heart, Zhao Fu had reached the end of his rope, and there was still a woman who had lost her will to him. It was truly shocking and ridiculous.
She felt that if her husband did not have the status of an emperor, he would not even be able to pour a chamber pot for Wang Qinghui.
"In this crazy world, everyone is crazy."
Disturbed by Wang Qinghui's ramblings, Quan Jiu couldn't help but stand up, put off his shoes, sat by the window, and read Wang Qinghui's books in the moonlight.
As soon as I picked up a book, I saw several pieces of paper underneath.
That was written by Wang Qinghui when he arrived in Kaifeng.
Quanjiu looked at it and shook his head slightly.
Even she knew that now that Emperor Shengming was on the throne, no matter how good the poems in memory of the previous dynasty were, people would no longer support them.
"Taiye hibiscus, it doesn't look like the old color."
"I once remembered the spring breeze and rain, the jade tower and the golden tower."
"The famous concubine with a blue hairpin is in the back, and the king with a dizzy lotus face is on the side..."
Seeing this, Quan Jiu even sneered.
Zhao Yu's weak appearance, "spring breeze and rain dew" and "a lotus face dizzy with tide" are just deceiving himself and others.
Looking back, I can see that the lyrics are well written.
"Suddenly, there was a sound, the sound of drums lifted up from the sky, and the prosperity came to an end."
"The dragons and tigers are scattered, the wind and clouds are destroyed. Eternal hatred, who can say it."
"Facing mountains and rivers, my eyes are filled with tears and blood..."
The lyrics of "Man Jiang Hong" are used, but there is only one song in the Song Dynasty's most famous "Man Jiang Hong", and the rest are more like ridicule no matter how well written they are.
Quanjiu was too lazy to look at it anymore and put back the writing paper in his hand, thinking that Wang Qinghui, a woman, must be in love with Ronghua. Who is Zhao Yu writing this?
It writes about the imperial palace, it writes about the royal family...
Thinking of this, Quan Jiu suddenly frowned, stood up, walked slowly to the couch, looked at Wang Qinghui's sleeping face, and asked in a low voice.
"Have you seen Li Xia?"
"His Majesty……"
Wang Qinghui babbled again, even more embarrassed.
Quanjiu was stunned.
Having met those officials first, and met those emperors again, who wouldn’t fall in love with them?
There are so many people in the world who are unswerving in their ambitions, and they are all trying to downplay those who are inferior and praise those who are superior.
Quanjiu felt inexplicably angry and picked up the hairpin on the table to stab Wang Qinghui.
However, after a moment, she stopped.
To be continued...
