coming!
Zhen thought calmly in her heart!
Ever since Xiao Fuyuan met A Zhen in the town, A Zhen bought a house across the street, and people came to the capital again and again, Mrs. Zhen had a premonition that this day was coming.
But she didn't expect that it was Feng Rui who asked her to question her.
Zhen had already made preparations.
Everyone else in the Bai family knew about Zhen's life experience and were very nervous at this time. Mrs. Bai even said, "Master Marquis, if you want to ask my daughter-in-law anything, ask me."
Feng Rui said with a smile: "Grandma Bai, it's just a little thing."
Xiao Fuyuan looked at Mrs. Zhen and her family, then walked over and took Old Mrs. Bai's hand and said, "Grandma, it's okay, it's okay. I believe Uncle Feng."
Old Mrs. Bai relaxed slightly. When the rest of the Bai family heard what Xiao Fuyuan said, they somehow felt that it was not a big deal.
I don’t know when it started, but little Fuyuan has become the backbone of the family.
Only Bai Banban was worried about his old wife. Zhen gave Bai Banban a calm look, stretched out her hand toward the room and said emotionlessly: "Master Marquis, please."
Arrive at the back room.
Mrs. Zhen sat on the chair, but Feng Rui, the Marquis, stood.
Zhen didn't say a word and looked at Feng Rui.
"Thirty years ago, a major event occurred in Beijing that shocked the government and the public. The Zhenguo government colluded with the then prince to rebel and his house was confiscated. All the men were beheaded and the women were thrown into the Jiaofangsi. The women in the family were unbearable and humiliated. While awaiting trial, all the women were He bit his tongue and committed suicide. At that time, the Marquis of Zhenguo Mansion had a legitimate daughter who was missing..." Feng Rui stared at Zhen and talked about the major events that happened in Zhen's Mansion thirty years ago.
Zhen's fingers trembled slightly in her sleeves, but her expression was calm and her voice was gentle as she said, "The missing person is me."
Feng Rui's brain exploded and he looked very excited.
"Presumably the Marquis already knew who I was when he asked me," said Zhen.
For example, once the Hou Mansion has doubts about her, they will definitely investigate her. It is too easy for the Hou Mansion to investigate a person.
"Zhen...sister..." Feng Rui spoke excitedly. Although he had confirmed Zhen's identity, he was still very excited to get a positive answer from Zhen's mouth, "Sister Zhen doesn't doubt my purpose and tells me everything? "
Zhen smiled and said: "No. Because Feng Ying's son will never be that kind of person."
Feng Rui was surprised when he heard what Zhen said.
"I came to you because I was entrusted by an old friend in the capital."
…
It has been a long time since Feng Rui talked with Zhen.
The hearts of the Bai family once again changed from calm to suspended state.
Old lady Bai looked up at the sky nervously.
"Don't worry, Madam Bai. My Lord Marquis is just asking Sister Zhen for a simple question." Ms. Zhou softly comforted Mrs. Bai.
She knew that Feng Rui was investigating Zhen's past.
In order to relieve the tension, Baiban picked up Xiao Fukuoka.
"Dad, it's okay." Xiao Fuyuan comforted his father gently.
Bai Dazhuang dragged Erlang home from school, not knowing that Feng Rui was talking to his mother. Seeing the dull atmosphere at home, he thought that everyone was reluctant to leave Erlang to go to Huaicheng. Erlang, who learned that he and his fourth uncle could go to Huaicheng to study, was originally very happy to see everyone so reluctant to leave. He also had red circles in his eyes.
Erlang, who knows the truth: It was a wrong payment after all.
After another cup of tea, Mrs. Zhen came out. Except for the red circles under her eyes, everything was calm.
Feng Rui looked quite excited.
Although the Bai family really wanted to know what Feng Rui and Zhen had said, they couldn't ask directly because Feng Rui and Zhou were present.
"The Marquis just asked me a few questions." Zhen dismissed everyone with just one sentence.
"Er Lang is back. Chuntao, please pack Er Lang's things. Don't delay the Marquis and Madam's carriage time." Old Mrs. Bai began to play her role as the backbone of the family again. Anyway, it would not be too late to ask Zhen after they left. It seemed that she had not What's going on, there's no need to rush to know.
"Okay, grandma." Xie Chuntao agreed and got into the house to pack Erlang's clothes. Qiuniang walked in to help collect them together.
Eugene Gui started a new round of heart attack. It would be great if it was Sanlang who went to Huaicheng to study. How could he not live up to his expectations and just want to be a quiet cook?
"Erlang, it's thanks to your aunt that your legs are healed. It's also thanks to your aunt that you can go to Huaicheng to study. What will you do when you get to Huaicheng?" Old Mrs. Bai asked Erlang with a straight face in front of her family.
Erlang looked at Xiao Fuyuan and said, "I will study hard when I get to Huaicheng, and then I will go to Beijing to take the top exam to support my little aunt."
Xiao Fuyuan: "..."
Erlang was dressed in coarse cloth, but his youthful brilliance could not be concealed, and he looked no less than A Zhen.
Xiao Fuyuan sighed, Erlang, Erlang, you can't be the number one scholar because your face is pretty.
Erlang's eyes were red as he spoke, and he felt uncomfortable at the thought of leaving his little aunt.
"Erlang, you go to Huaicheng and study hard. My aunt will miss you." Xiao Fuyuan whispered, then ran into the house and took out his small parcel, took out a few pieces of silver and stuffed it to Erlang, "Don't be harsh on yourself, buy delicious food of."
This money was given to Xiao Fuyuan from home.
"Little aunt, I don't want it." Erlang said sensibly.
Old Mrs. Bai said: "You take what your little aunt gives you. You have to remember your little aunt's kindness and pay it back to your aunt when you make a lot of money in the future."
Erlang took the silver and nodded with red eyes.
Ms. Zhou avoided people and took Ms. Zhen's hand, and said softly: "Sister Zhen, I heard from Mr. Hou that she is thinking about you day and night. She shed tears when she learned that you were living in the village. Why don't you go to Beijing and be with her?" Will we meet her?"
Zhen said: "Knowing that she is still alive, I also thought about it. It doesn't matter if I see her or not. When my sister returns to Beijing at the end of the year and sees her, she will give her a message saying that I am living a good life. I have children and a daughter. "My mother-in-law is good, my husband is good, I have land at home and I don't have to worry about food. Compared with those who died, I am already very satisfied."
Zhou's mood was distressed and complicated.
No one would be willing to accept the fact that the eldest daughter of the Zhenguo Palace became a village woman, but there was no hint of unwillingness in Mrs. Zhen's words.
"Anyway, I won't enter the capital again." Zhen said.
Soon the coachman hitched up the carriage, and the Feng family set off for Huaicheng.
Feng Zhiheng had red circles under her eyes, but because Erlang was going with her, her mood suddenly improved, and she held Erlang's hand and chattered non-stop.
After sending the Feng family away, the Bai family closed the door and couldn't wait to ask what Zhen and Feng Rui had said.
"It was said that he was asked by an old friend to look for me... The old friend was the little aunt I went to get married with. She was not dead. She was assassinated on the border with my carriage and horse. My little aunt disappeared. She was rescued by King Jing who was stationed at the border... and later became a prisoner. Princess Jing..." Zhen said.
King Jing?
Old Mrs. Bai and Bai Banban are no strangers to this name. Back then, the emperor was violent and favored treacherous ministers. The people were in dire straits and the world was in chaos. King Jing gathered hundreds of thousands of troops from the border and went to the capital to eradicate the treacherous ministers. Finally, he forced the emperor to abdicate and he ascended the throne.
He is the good emperor who is praised by the people today and loves his people like his own son.
Bai Dazhuang and the others were young when King Jing came to the throne, so they didn't even remember it.
"How is our aunt doing now? Still at the border?" Bai Dazhuang asked honestly.
"She is now the current empress dowager." Zhen said.
