In the afternoon, Huan Ci had dinner in the Queen Mother's Palace and chatted with them all afternoon. It was not until after Shen Zheng that the Queen Mother finally felt tired and the two of them were willing to let her go.
In fact, they didn't say much, they just told Zong Zhengche's story. From when he appeared in his mother's womb, to when he went to school for the first time, to when he was crowned. The two of them almost gave his life to her.
Told it all over.
Huan Ci felt very boring when he heard them. These stories were as boring as Zong Zhengche himself.
However, she discovered another interesting thing, and that was the existence of Su Wanling.
From the time Zong Zhengche went to Chongwen Hall to study, this person appeared in almost every story. Whether it was a small matter like Zong Zhengche falling on his horse or a big event like him holding a crowning ceremony, Su Wanling always accompanied him
around.
Don't blame Huan Ci for being careless. If it were just a normal friendship between family members, the two of them would be too close. Huan Ci has also experienced the throbbing age, so she still understands these things.
Regardless of anything else, Su Wanling's expression when she mentioned Zong Zhengche revealed a lot of her thoughts. Either she hadn't realized what she was thinking, or she never concealed it.
It's a pity that Huan Ci is not interested in the affairs between the two of them. Royal marriages are not based on feelings, let alone that person is the prince. Moreover, she has no friendship with Zong Zhengche. If the marriage is successful, she will find a way in the future.
If Heli cannot be achieved, then it must be allowed to play its intended role for a short period of time. Furthermore, it is better to seek help from others than to ask for yourself, so she and her father still have to find other ways.
On the way back from the palace, Huan Ci saw many officers and soldiers on the street. After she went back and made some inquiries, she found out that because Yanmen Pass had been lost, the capital was on alert, and only exits and no entry were allowed at the city gate.
War is not a good thing after all, not to mention that his father is still the commander-in-chief. The capital is currently under martial law, and letters from Bingzhou cannot be sent in. Huan Ci's family was restless and spent several days in a state of confusion.
The first month passed in a blink of an eye, and Huan Ci ushered in her first spring in Yingdu.
In the palace a few days ago, she only glanced briefly at the eunuch named Li Qi, but the man never appeared again after Su Wanling came in.
Her father once told her to discuss anything with this person when she arrived in the capital. Now she finally knew where she was, but firstly, she had nothing to do recently, and secondly, she couldn't enter the palace without an edict.
With nothing to do, Huan Ci took A Yao out to relax.
But not long after, an angry figure returned to the long street.
Huan Ci thought about what those people said just now, and was really shocked and frightened. Somehow, the past incident between her and Fu Shen was spread out, and the news was a bit bizarre.
Ayao followed behind her, also with an angry look on her face. Some bastard spread the rumor that Mr. Fu was once the girl's favorite, and the two of them had already been at odds with each other for a long time.
Thinking of the extremely insulting words said by those stinky men, Ayao was so angry that her face turned green. She didn't know how the girl could continue to listen. She listened there for a long time before pulling her away.
A pair of masters and servants walked one behind the other with sad faces. No one noticed that the street was much deserted than usual.
When he walked to the door of Fu Shen's house, Huan Ci glanced subconsciously, only to find two officers and soldiers standing in front of the door.
"What's going on?" She frowned in confusion.
"Don't you know, girl? They were here this morning, and there are two at the back door." A Yao said softly.
They went out in a carriage this morning, but the girl asked the driver to go back halfway, so she didn't know. There have been officers and soldiers here since yesterday afternoon. She thought it was because of the martial law in the capital, so she didn't tell the girl.
But now it seems that it is not what she thought.
Huan Ci also vaguely guessed it.
Fu Shen was now Zong Zhengyuan's man, but he suddenly got involved with her. It was feared that Zong Zhengyuan would become suspicious and plan to investigate him.
But for no reason, how did this matter get spread?
Huan Ci sighed deeply. It was like a wave of ups and downs. However, after not going out for a few days, rumors started to spread.
It's just that her reputation has always been bad, so she doesn't worry about it. But this time Fu Shen is also involved, and she doesn't know what the intentions of this person spreading rumors are.
"Who will deal with us at this moment? Is this person coming for you or Third Master Fu?" Ayao asked in a low voice behind her.
Huan Ci frowned. The person who did this at this time should not be Zong Zhengche. As for Zong Zhengyuan, Huan Ci felt that he was not so confused about the importance.
Suddenly, Huan Ci remembered what Su Wanling said that day. She had been to Bingzhou and met Fu Shen's cousin, and she seemed to be interested in the prince.
When they were in Bingzhou, the matter between her and Fu Shen was hidden from everyone, but if someone wanted to know, it would not be difficult. If Su Wanling knew about it through Fu Tian, it would be very reasonable.
Huan Ci once bumped into Fu Tian, but she didn't take it to heart. Who knew that three years later, she would be in such a situation.
"You don't have to worry about raising lice if you have too many. Besides, the rumors this time are both true and false. No matter who it is, our response was too slow this time. No matter who it is, just do whatever you want." Huan Ci shook his head and said this
Put the matter behind you.
As for the rest, she only cares about whether Zong Zhengche will change his mind because of this matter. If he wants to regret his marriage, Huan Ci has nothing to say. After all, Li's regret in marriage was also because of this matter, and he even poured it on her.
More dirty water.
only--
Huan Ci looked at the two officers and soldiers standing in front of Fushen Gate.
I don’t know what is happening to that person now. If he has anything to do with her, I’m afraid Zong Zhengyuan will peel off his skin.
After returning to the house, Huan Ci moved a deck chair and placed it in front of the east wing, intending to listen carefully to what was going on next door.
"Girl, is this okay? There's usually no one in this place, right?" Ayao looked at her with complicated eyes.
"What do you know?" Huan Ci cleared his throat, "This wing is connected to his main room and is the closest place. You might be able to hear the sound of someone moving here."
Ayao shook her head helplessly and went back to her room to find a stove and blanket for her.
Huan Ci stayed on the recliner all afternoon, but there seemed to be no one next door, and he didn't hear a call for a long time.
It was just when the warmth turned cold, and at night, it was freezing outside. After dinner, Huan Ci sat on the recliner for a while. Although there was a small stove next to her, she soon became unbearable from the cold.
.
"A Yao," she hooked her fingers at A Yao, and when she came closer, she whispered a few words in her ear.
On the other side of the wall, a set of stone tables and benches were placed in front of the west wing of the house. Now sitting on the bench was a man in black clothes, it was Fu Shen who had been silent all afternoon.
