Chapter 839 Zhen Qing: Ziyu, it’s great to have you here (please give me the moon)
In the courtyard, the verdant bamboo forest rustled, making it increasingly quiet and unspeakable. The wind in the winter morning was a bit damp and cold, and the lanterns were blowing and swaying, but they were blocked by the cotton curtains on the door.
Outside.
Zhen Qing was sitting on the bed in the room, staring blankly out of boredom. Her charming and charming face had long lost its former sparkle, and instead looked a little more pale and frail.
Since the assassination of Prince Chu in the past few days, Zhen Qing has fallen into a state of confusion. Even though she has determined in her heart that she will never admit defeat, as time goes by, the huge loss still sweeps over like darkness.
body and mind.
Zhen Xue, who was sitting next to the bed and talking, was peeling an orange, handed it over, and said softly: "Sister, eat this."
Zhen Qing responded with a "hmm" and took the orange. The sweet and sour juice from the orange lingered in her mouth, which seemed to make the sadness in her heart dissipate a lot.
At this moment, a nun entered the side room and said loudly: "Princess, Uncle Yongning came to visit the princess and report the progress of the situation."
When they were at the post house, Jia Heng mentioned in front of the King of Chu that he wanted to ask Zhen Qing about the details of the assassination. The King of Chu was originally worried and worried that Zhen Qing would tell Jia Heng about the ugly behavior that day.
But after a few days passed, he found that Jia Heng had not gone to consult Zhen Qing, and the King of Chu gradually felt relieved.
Under Zhen Qing's willow-leaf eyebrows, her originally dazed gaze gradually recovered. She stared at Zhen Xue and said, "Sister."
Zhen Xue put down the orange in her hand and backed away from the female officials and nuns around her. For a while, only Zhen Qing and Zhen Xue were left in the room.
Because the nanny and maid in the mansion at this moment are Zhen Qing and Zhen Xue's confidants in the Zhen family, so they don't believe them.
At this time, Jia Heng, accompanied by Chen Xiao, walked into the mansion, walked along the corridor, passed through the flower-walled pavilion, and came to the rear courtyard.
After entering the private room, Zhen Qing got up from the bed and looked at the young man. Her nose felt sore and cold, and the tears accumulated in her narrow phoenix eyes couldn't help but burst out of her eyes.
"Princess, how have you been these days?" Jia Heng looked at the beauty and asked warmly.
Zhen Qing came close, with excitement on her face, and whispered: "Ziyu."
As he spoke, he threw himself into Jia Heng's arms, sobbing almost non-stop, as if he wanted to release all the surprise and pain he had suffered for the past few days in his cries.
At this moment, the people around her have been pushed back by Zhen Xue. As for Chen Xiao, Zhen Qing has already recognized this female guard.
Jia Heng gently hugged Zhen Qing's twitching shoulders and spoke words of comfort, but his heart was a little complicated, and he could feel Zhen Qing's heartbreak.
Jia Heng just hugged Zhen Qing tightly, gently stroked the beauty's snow shoulder, and said comfortingly: "Okay, okay, it's all over."
Chen Xiao took a deep look at the two of them, silently walked out of the inner room, and went straight to the outside eaves to look at the wind. The biting cold wind in winter blew on the girl's face, and she tightened her hand holding the embroidered spring knife.
Seeing Zhen Qing's eyes filled with tears, Zhen Xue advised from the side: "Sister."
Jia Heng also patted Zhen Qing's snowy back gently and said softly: "Okay."
Zhen Qing stood up from Jia Heng's arms, looked at the young man, with a hint of evil in her eyes, and said sternly: "I want to sacrifice the son of King Zhao to Chun'er!"
Jia Heng took Zhen Qing's hand, sat down on the bed, and said softly: "Now the guards of Jinyi Mansion are still investigating this matter, but the remnants of King Zhao are very deliberate and hidden, and they cannot be investigated in a day or two.
, don’t be impatient yet.”
As Zhen Qing spoke, she started to cry again, with tears in her eyes, and she said in a crying tone: "Ziyu, what should I do?"
The Zhen family is gone. That man lives for himself and abandons Chun'er. Who can she rely on in the future?
She has nothing left, nothing left.
Jia Heng sighed softly and whispered: "We still have to look forward."
Zhen Qing looked fixedly at the young man and said with choked sobs: "Ziyu, do you know why Chun'er disappeared?"
Jia Heng's expression paused, and he looked at Zhen Qing with some doubts. His heart suddenly moved. Sure enough, there was another truth?
"It was that person who killed him." Zhen Qing finally couldn't hold on any longer and threw herself into Jia Heng's arms again, sobbing and crying: "That day, Chun'er was holding his legs, and the thief came with a knife to kill him. He just wanted to be alone.
I ran for my life and gave Chun'er a kick, I..."
At the end of the story, I almost collapsed and burst into tears.
When Jia Heng heard this, his face paused slightly and his brows furrowed.
Zhen Xue also frowned, and under her slender eyebrows, those crystal clear eyes were full of disbelief.
Is there any other reason for this?
Jia Heng sighed softly.
He also didn't expect that the King of Chu would be so... unbearable, that he would abandon his own son at the critical moment.
But then I thought about it, between life and death, the choices ordinary people often make are the instinctive reactions of the body and self-protection.
Just like when there is a car accident, the driver will usually give priority to protecting himself and let the co-pilot face the place where the impact is most severe.
But sometimes, the preciousness of a person lies precisely in overcoming instinct, and King Chu was a little...too selfish and cold-blooded in this matter.
Jia Heng looked at Zhen Qing with pear blossoms and rain, sighed, and hugged Zhen Qing's thin and delicate body tightly.
In the past, there were all kinds of questions, and it was more about the fun between the bed curtains, but now it is unnecessary, and it is also very unmanly.
Zhen Qing cried for a while, looked at the young man with a pear-shaped face, and said with tears streaming down her face: "What should I do?"
Jia Heng took the handkerchief, gently wiped the tears on the beauty's cheek, and said comfortingly: "Don't think so much now, take care of the baby first, and we can talk about the future later."
At this moment, Zhen Qing and King Chu can be convinced that the relationship between the couple has indeed broken down.
But Zhen Qing obviously didn't want to give up her identity as Princess Chu, so she just swallowed her anger, but this incident was like a thorn piercing deep into Zhen Qing's heart.
Immediately, Jia Heng was silent for a moment and asked in a low voice: "Does he know about your child?"
"I haven't told him yet." Zhen Qing said softly.
Jia Heng thought for a while and whispered: "Find an opportunity in the next few days to reveal it to him. If you delay it for too long, it will not be good and it will easily lead to suspicion."
Because they had been apart for a long time, the King of Chu was prone to suspicion, and the previous drunken experience was easily forgotten.
Zhen Qing nodded, looked at the young man, and said softly: "Then I will ask someone to make arrangements soon."
Jia Heng put his arm around Zhen Qing's shoulders and said warmly: "You also cherish your own body."
Zhen Qing nodded and whispered: "Sister said yesterday, sister, you have already thought of a way."
Jia Heng said warmly: "The official document has come down. King Beijing has taken charge of the task of rectifying the navy and is heading south from the capital. When he arrives, give the medicine to Xue'er. Well, don't get the wrong medicine."
He never thought of harming people's lives, otherwise he would really become a high-ranking official of Ximen, which would be too damaging to his morality.
Zhen Qing looked at Zhen Xue who was standing at the screen looking at the wind with complicated eyes, feeling somewhat sour in her heart.
Speaking of which, he still likes his sister.
Zhen Qing looked at the young man, caressing her belly, her pretty face full of dependence, and said: "From now on, you have to be kind to our two sons, he is your eldest son."
The person in front of her will be all she relies on in the future. She is so bad that she must be a boy. Only a boy can this bastard help her get to that position with all his strength.
Jia Heng stretched out his hand to caress the beauty's cheek, looked into those narrow and clear phoenix eyes, and whispered: "Well, don't worry, I will treat you well in the future."
I don’t know where Zhen Qing got her confidence from. She must be the eldest son, and the one from Jinyang is undoubtedly the eldest son.
Maybe we need to be on guard. Is Zhen Qing, a vicious woman, capable of stealing from a dragon to a phoenix? Or maybe Zhen Xue gave birth to a boy, and she gave birth to a girl herself, and then secretly changed it?
However, this possibility is extremely low, because the two people will probably give birth at different times, and the King of Chu will also send someone to deliver the baby. Besides, Zhen Xue will not let Zhen Qing do whatever she wants.
Jia Heng thought like this, stretched out his arms to hug Zhen Qing's waist, and said warmly: "But you have to be careful, this matter is of great importance, don't let the news leak out, and King Chu, try not to
Let him notice the clues."
Zhen Qing is a smart person. It can be seen from the past that she did not mention the murder of Chen Chun at all that day. In such a situation of extreme despair and resentment, she still retained a trace of reason.
So, mentioning this matter in front of him now, of course, is not only a catharsis of emotions, but also essentially expresses a certain determination to be with him forever.
Zhen Qing's beautiful eyes were as moist as water under her beautiful eyebrows, and she said foolishly: "Ziyu, you want me."
She wanted to hug him closely at this moment. Only in this way could she forget the heartbreaking pain.
Jia Heng: "..."
After being startled for a moment, Jia Heng came closer to Zhen Qing and said, "You have a child. We shouldn't mess around. It's easy to lose."
He knew that Zhen Qing definitely didn't have that intention, but was more attached to him.
He leaned down and touched the beauty's lips with gentle movements.
After a while, Zhen Qing's beautiful face was stunned, and her desperate heart suddenly felt a little comfort. She looked at the young man with her beautiful eyes like water, and a strong desire surged in her heart. She said softly: "If you are worried about the child, there are other things.
local.”
Jia Heng: "???"
Looking at the paper-pale cheek, some pity surged in his heart. He gently stroked the beauty's pale side face, the soft skin feeling gently flowing between his fingers, and said: "Stop making trouble, you are already like this.
How can I bear it? We will have a long and long life in the future, and we are not in a hurry for this moment."
This is clearly a sign of Beauty's lack of sense of security. Now Zhen Qing really has nothing except him.
If he doesn't want Zhen Qing anymore, I guess Zhen Qing will go crazy on the spot, but with the temperament of a poisonous woman, maybe Niu Colu and Zhen Huan will be on the line, and will it be a big female lead drama from now on?
Zhen Qing listened to the young man's words, her delicate body trembled slightly, tears once again accumulated in her beautiful eyes under her curved eyebrows, and she whispered: "Ziyu, it's great to have you here."
He kept her in his heart as his wife, and he cared for and cared for her. When she became the queen, she and he would join hands to take charge of the government and make the child in her belly the crown prince. Their family of three would definitely stay together forever.
As for that person...
Jia Heng put his arms around Zhen Qing's shoulders, kissed the beauty's tear-stained cheek, and said, "Qing'er, don't be upset these days. When I'm here from now on, the Zhen family will just have some valuables."
I'll keep an eye on the inspection for you, and nothing will happen to you. Once you give birth here, it won't be too late to go back next year."
Zhen Qing listened to the young man's soft words in her ears, nodded, responded softly, and retracted her delicate body into Jia Heng's arms. At this moment, she felt unprecedented peace.
Jia Heng felt relieved for a while, raised his eyes to look at Zhen Xue beside him, and said softly: "Xue'er, you and your sister are waiting here for delivery. Prince Beijing will stay in Fuzhou and Hangzhou for a long time, so it is logical for you to live in Jinling.
.”
Zhen Qing, Zhen Xue and Jin Yang all stay in Jinling. This is the best plan.
Otherwise, with too many contacts in the capital, the news will easily leak out, and then he will be very passive.
There can never be a day when the emperor questions him and he says, "Yes, we have a child."
Well, this is not the same thing.
Only after he has accomplished greater achievements can he protect the two of them.
Zhen Xue nodded, her gentle eyes full of tenderness and sweetness, and said softly: "Sister is here, I can't go back."
Originally, Princess Beijing said she was thinking of her granddaughter, but now that King Beijing has also gone south, it is naturally difficult to talk about anything else.
Jia Heng said: "Then just say it like this."
"Sisters Lan'er and Xi'er will be brought to the capital with you." Zhen Qing's bright eyes were as full as water under her eyebrows, and she said softly, "When I miss you, I will write you a letter and send it to Lan'er and
Xi'er, you can see it too."
Jia Heng looked at Zhen Qing, nodded, and said: "That's okay, but you have to be extra careful not to write my name on the letter. Just write the letter to Xi'er, and I will also use Xi'er's mouth to send my name to Xi'er.
You deliver the letter."
Zhen Qing couldn't help but roll her eyes at the boy in the python suit and said, "Sooner or later, Lan'er will follow you. I heard from my sister that day that you helped Lan'er breathe a sigh of relief and clean up the Fang family?"
Perhaps because Jia Heng was here, the beauty's mood gradually became brighter.
Jia Heng glanced at Zhen Xue and said: "The Fang family is indeed a bit hateful. This time can be considered a punishment, otherwise cats and dogs will bully us."
Hearing this, Zhen Qing looked at the cold and solemn figure, her heart filled with sweetness, and said: "Lan'er looks like me when I was young. I hope she can be with you. After you take care of her,
I can also be your helper.”
Zhen Qing said softly, and a thought suddenly came to her mind.
After having a child, the entanglement between her and him will never be resolved, but if she wants to realize her inner plan, she must firmly bind the person in front of her.
He was so prolific in attracting women that even Xianning wanted to marry him regardless of her status, not to mention the girls from the Jia family. She looked at the girls from the Lin family and the Xue family who didn't seem to be good friends.
Jia Heng said: "Let's talk about Sister Lan later."
Zhen Qing said softly: "With such a big thing happening at home, it will be difficult for Sister Lan to marry into a good family in the future. I might as well marry you."
Jia Heng did not answer the question again, but cuddled up with Zhen Qing and talked for a while, then raised his eyes to look at the sky and said, "Qing'er, it's getting late, I should go back."
"Why are you going back? It's already noon, let's have dinner in the house." Zhen Qing looked at the young man intently and said softly.
At this moment, the beauty is obviously more and more attached to Jia Heng.
Jia Heng thought for a while, looked at Zhen Qing who looked expectantly, and whispered: "Okay, then I will stay with you for a while."
After saying that, he sat down, held Zhen Qing's hand tightly, hugged her into his arms, and then asked Zhen Xue to prepare the meal.
"When do you plan to return to Beijing?" Zhen Qing asked reluctantly.
Jia Heng said softly: "Just half a month, it won't be too long. I'll meet King Beijing first before going back."
At this moment, King Beijing is probably on his way six hundred miles away, and he has been in Jiangnan for so long, so it is time to go back.
I wonder how Keqing is doing at home?
Jia Heng said: "You can take it here in Jiangnan. I will try my best to find time to come over after next spring."
Zhen Qing will be pregnant for ten months, and now it is November, that is, she will give birth in August next year. She will definitely need a stable environment for ten months.
Of course, in the meantime, the King of Chu might not let Zhen Qing stay in Jiangnan, and might return to Shenjing first.
Zhen Qing suddenly sighed and said softly: "If I hadn't come to Jiangnan in the first place, there would have been no assassination."
After all, he is his biological son, and every time he thinks about it, his heart aches.
Jia Heng looked at the beauty with warm eyes, gently caressed the beauty's snowy shoulder, and whispered: "It's fate that manipulates people. Okay, don't think about this."
Zhen Qing raised her eyes and asked, "Ziyu, how are your father and your second uncle doing lately?"
Jia Heng sighed: "I feel bad after hearing about you. In the past few days, I have told everything about Tirenyuan. I have written a memorial and sent it to Beijing. There is such a big incident in Jiangnan."
Come to think of it, the Holy Father should be lenient to the Zhen family."
When the King of Chu was assassinated and the prince died young, the emperor would definitely show mercy, probably to the Zhen family.
When Zhen Qing heard this, her eyes were lost in thought, and she sighed again.
After a while, Zhen Xue came from outside the screen and said softly: "Sister, the food is ready and will be brought over in a moment."
Jia Heng had no choice but to let go of Zhen Qing and sit down to drink tea again.
After the female officer and the nanny finished serving the dishes under Zhen Xue's instructions and left the room one after another, Jia Heng sat down around the table, looked at Zhen Qing beside him, and said softly: "You have been haggard these days.
I also lost a lot of weight.”
As he spoke, he picked up a few pieces of vegetables and said warmly: "Eat more."
Zhen Qing looked at the boy in the python suit and said softly: "Feed me."
Jia Heng felt a little helpless, Zhen Qing was really a perfect little woman at the moment, or in other words, the beauty was testing his love and attitude towards her in this way.
Picking up the dish, Kuai Zi put it to Zhen Qing's lips and watched the beauty eat it.
A hint of sweetness surged in Zhen Qing's heart, and the sadness in her heart gradually dissipated.
And while Jia Heng and Zhen Qing were having lunch, in the post house and study room——
The tea cup on the small table was steaming with steam. The King of Chu's face was as gloomy as water. Not far away were sitting the palace chief, Shi Liao Xian, and the chief secretary, Feng Ci. They had not had lunch yet and were discussing the recent turmoil in Jinling.
"Your Majesty, the Tiqi from Jinyi Mansion have been everywhere recently, and people in Jinling City are in panic." Liao Xian said.
King Chu's eyes were dark and he whispered: "Now Uncle Yongning is preparing for the prison, and the officials in Jiangnan are afraid that he will be implicated."
Feng Ci thought for a while, then spoke to the meeting: "Your Majesty, can you tell me that this matter is related to rebelling against the party and has no serious problems with ordinary officials, so you don't want to implicate innocent people?"
This is the intention of inviting scholars from the south of the Yangtze River in the name of generosity. It is undoubtedly more convincing to have the King of Chu, the victim, to invite scholars.
Liao Xian frowned and said, "Your Majesty, it's not appropriate to say anything now, otherwise, there will be suspicion on the part of the Holy One."
When King Chu heard this, his expression changed, he nodded in agreement, then looked at Feng Ci and said, "What do Chief Feng think?"
Feng Ci thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, you can meet with Uncle Yong Ning and mention that the pursuit of the real brother should not involve innocent people. That can also calm people's hearts."
When King Chu heard this, his eyes lit up and he said: "I originally wanted to go see Uncle Yongning, but now it's the right time, so I'll just bring it up when the time comes."
At this moment, a guard strode in from outside the corridor eaves, clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, Uncle Yongning went to the South Street Alley to visit the princess today, and seemed to inquire about her love."
Because he was concerned about what Jia Heng said about investigating the details of Chen Chun's murder, the King of Chu sent palace guards to protect the surroundings and report them in a timely manner.
King Chu's face looked slightly warped, and panic surged in his heart. After a while, he gradually calmed down.
The princess didn't mention it last time, and she probably won't mention it this time either.
He really didn't mean it that day, and the princess should have understood.
