Chapter 321 Vinegar is sour
Cui Zhen also noticed the figure and was about to ask, the manager around him reported: "Marty, that's the young master of the Lin clan. He is a guest at home. He may be a little courageous. He hid when he saw a stranger."
Cui Zhen nodded. The children of the Lin clan came to the capital and had seen the world. How could they be so timid?
"Big brother," Gu Mingzhu turned to look at Cui Zhen, "He is Zou Xiang, he is only three or four years old, and he can recite a lot of books, and he is still very strong."
Zou Xiang?
Cui Zhen was sure that he had heard this name for the first time, and he was able to endorse the letter with great strength. I don’t know which female relative of the Lin family was the child.
"Big brother," Gu Mingzhu continued, "Can you shoot arrows to show me and Zou Xiang later?"
When Cui Zhen returned to the Lin clan, he had been shooting arrows in the courtyard with his Lin family's children. Zhuzhu might have seen her recovering from illness in Shaanxi at that time, so I remembered it.
Cui Zhen nodded: "Okay, I'm fine today, I'll take you to the yard to play."
Mrs. Lin asked Cui Zhen to go to the main hall in the backyard. Gu Mingzhu glanced at Baotong and jumped in front.
Baotong knew it well, so she turned around and went along the path to find Zou Xiang.
...
Zou Xiang was called by Mrs. Lin and said a few words. Unexpectedly, when he looked up on the way back, he saw Cui Zhen, and his heart seemed to be about to jump out of his throat.
This is the first time Zou Xiang has seen Cui Zhen himself. Before, he saw Cui Zhen on the scroll. Although it was the first time, he knew that he would never read it wrong.
Zou Xiang was extremely panicked, his palms were covered in sweat. He rushed into the room and grabbed Zou Lin's sleeve.
Seeing that Zou Xiang's face turned pale, Zou Lin immediately sent his servant away and whispered: "What's wrong?"
"He's here, he's here." Zou Xiang plunged into Zou Lin's arms.
After thinking about it, Zou Lin immediately whispered: "Who are you talking about? Marquis Dingning or Mrs. Zhang?"
Zou Xiang refused to speak, his nose wings swelled quickly, and his small body was arching, as if he wanted to hide under Zou Lin's quilt and never come out to see anyone again.
When Zou Lin saw Zou Xiang's appearance, he knew: "Is Dingning Marquis coming? I've told you a long time ago that you will definitely see him. This is my change of mind and coming to Huaiyuan Marquis Mansion. If I went directly to Dingning Marquis Mansion, you would have seen him long ago."
Zou Xiang clenched his fists and said nothing.
"After all, I'm a child, and I can't stand up to major events," said Zou Lin. "I regret telling you these things too. If you hadn't asked me again and again? I was afraid that I would resent me in the future if I brought this secret to the ground... Alas... Even if I have any thoughts, I'm still a child."
Zou Lin's words? Zou Xiang was unmoved. He seemed to have been immersed in his own thinking for a long time? Never want to come out again.
Zou Lin did not make things difficult for Zou Xiang, but gently patted Zou Xiang's back with his hands: "Can I protect you while I am alive? Comfort you? Who will pay attention to you after I die? You have to grow up by yourself."
Before Zou Xiang could speak, he heard a knock on the door outside: "Mrs. My wife asked me to call Mr. Zou to the garden."
When Zou Xiang heard this, he leaned into Zou Lin's arms again? This time, Zou Lin didn't let Zou Xiang do this? He reached out and pushed Zou Xiang away, pretending to be nothing: "It's Miss Baotong? What did the eldest lady ask Zou Xiang to go to the garden to do?"
Baotong said, "Marty Dingning is here and I want to shoot arrows for the eldest lady and Mr. Zou to see."
Hearing this, Zou Xiang held Zou Lin tightly with his hands. The small joints seemed to have been clenched into Zou Lin's flesh. Zou Lin endured the pain? He pretended to be nothing and said softly: "Okay? I'll change Zou Xiang's clothes and let him go? I'm upset Miss Baotong."
Baotong responded and turned around and left.
Listening to the sound of footsteps getting farther and farther away, Zou Xiang suddenly raised his head and stared at Zou Lin. Tears were spinning in his eyes? There was a bit of resentment and anger in his eyes.
Zou Lin said, "You blame me and you can't help but hate me? Now Dingning Hou is just here. I'm not dead yet. I can just watch you meet him."
Zou Xiang pursed his lips tightly, his face looking extremely ugly. He suddenly got up and found a dagger in Zou Lin's bag: "I'll go..."
Zou Xiang returned to Zou Lin's side and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "I'll kill him, and we'll die together when the time comes."
"Okay," Zou Lin did not object, "but you can't kill him. In the end, there is only one result. He will be safe and sound. I will probably die if I don't have much time to pass this time. You are helpless and dead. You are a waste of your mother to save your life for you. If you think about it, you will do it and I will take you there."
Zou Linshi said that Zou Xiang's sleeves were completely understood and asked him to hide the dagger in his sleeves: "It's good, so no one can see it."
Zou Xiang stared at Zou Lin in a daze.
"What?" Zou Lin's expressionless face, "I blame me for not caring about you? You have to make your own choice, because after I die, you will do this too. It's okay if I take a look in advance."
Two tears rolled down from Zou Xiang's eyes. He bit his lips tightly, trying to bite his lips.
In the main hall of the Gu family, Cui Zhen told the story of Gu Mingzhu wrapping the patient's wounds at Anjiyuan, but Mrs. Lin was not surprised.
Mrs. Lin smiled and looked at Zhuzhu: "When I was in the village fort, Zhuzhu learned these with my doctor. Now it would be even better after Mo Zhenren's tips. Being able to do something with Mo Zhenren is also Zhuzhu's blessing. My wish and the Marquis have come true. No matter what Zhuzhu does, as long as she is happy..."
Cui Zhen looked at his aunt's happy and grateful appearance, and the soft part in his heart was also touched. He couldn't help but think of the situation where his father asked him to practice riding and ejaculation with a stern face.
Mrs. Lin said: "I have heard from your uncle that you have handed over military power and are ready to rest at home. This is also great. Over the years, we have been fighting abroad without stopping, so we can take this opportunity to take a breath. The nobles have too much power in their hands and are easily slandered. It is a good thing to slow down.
At least you can reunite with your family and have more children with Zhang while you are young. You must have a legacy of your skills.”
Cui Zhen nodded and said, "Auntie is right." He had to do a lot of things. After handing over the military power, he asked someone to investigate Cui Wei privately. He was always worried that Cui Wei was involved in Lin Si's real affairs. Only by finding out this matter can he return to Datong and lead the troops again.
Cui Wei made a small mistake and punished him very much. If his brother wronged Cui Wei, he would also apologize to Cui Wei with a frank and open quotation.
Then it was Cui Wei's marriage. If you figure it out, he would find a good marriage for Cui Wei. Of course, if Cui Wei made a big mistake, he would also deal with it and would never tolerate it.
This is the most important reason why he handed over military power.
In addition, he would rectify his inner house and let Zhang give birth to a legitimate son for him, and stabilize the back house of Dingning Hou Mansion. He would also go to the Zhou family to give him a gift during the Chinese New Year and holidays, which was considered as compensation to Zhou.
I hope that the Dingning Marquis Mansion will be calm. Although the family cannot be as happy as the Huaiyuan Marquis Mansion, he will do his best.
Even if their mother-son relationship will never be well established, he will do his duty as a son. Cui Zhen also has to have a prosperous family and have at least five or six children around him. Zhang refused to go to the backyard. He would not go there before Zhang gave birth to a legitimate son, so that Zhang would feel at ease. As for those concubines who followed him, he would have to let them live in the Cui family safely, ensuring that they have no worries about food and clothing. In the future, the legitimate son will be stable, and there will be more concubine sons, and it is nothing to do with the concubine daughter.
When he came to this point, all he could do was make some changes so that the people around him would not be wronged. He had been fighting outside for many years and used his spirit in his inner house. It should not be difficult to do this.
Just as Cui Zhen thought of this, he saw Gu Mingzhu get up from the chair and then the two of them walked into the room.
Zou Lin followed the little Zou Xiang, and the two saluted Cui Zhen and Mrs. Lin. Zou Xiang lowered his head from beginning to end and did not look at the surroundings.
"Zou Xiang, hurry up, I've met Dingning Hou."
Under Zou Lin's urging, Zou Xiang slowly raised his head and shouted: "Marty Dingning."
Cui Zhen nodded, and naturally stood up and said to Mrs. Lin: "Auntie helped me find a bow and arrow. I'll go to the garden to shoot arrows for Zhuzhu and Zou Xiang."
Mrs. Lin looked outside: "It's going to be dark this day, how can I see clearly?"
Cui Zhen said calmly: "It's not a problem."
Mrs. Lin looked at Zhuzhu: "Your elder brother just came back, so you tossed him."
Cui Zhen said: "I happen to be fine. I don't have children at home, so it's rare to have such an opportunity."
Mrs. Lin turned around and ordered the manager: "Since the Marquis said that, go and take the bow that the master often uses."
Cui Zhen walked towards the yard first.
...
In the Shuntian Mansion Prison.
Wei Yuanchen has been interrogating the Lu family and Bai Jingkun. Bai Gongren was locked up alone and is still unwilling to say anything. However, as she is getting more and more anxious, I am afraid that once the medicine is over, the old disease will recur, and she will reveal the truth.
After arresting the Lu family, Qiao Zheng from the Ministry of Justice also followed him to try the case. Obviously, he was preparing to keep an eye on him this time. Wei Yuanchen did not take Qiao Zheng seriously, but with such a person around him, it would be a bit annoying.
Miss Gu is careless. This is the purpose of her creation of various identities. She can turn her face and turn her face to the point, making people have nowhere to look for her.
Taking advantage of the trial, Chujiu came up and said, "Miss has left Anjiyuan, but she was sent back to Gu's family by Cui Zhen."
Wei Yuanchen's expression was calm, as if there was no change at all.
Chujiu smelled a strange smell. He licked his lips. He wanted to worry about what the third master was worried about and make contributions in front of the third master. He could never go back to sweep the pigpen and sleep with the pig in his arms.
Chu Jiu whispered: "But don't worry, Master San, I'll go back and stare at him. If Cui Zhen dares to do anything, I will go up and spit on his face with a chicken manure."
Zhang Tong next to him couldn't help but look at Chujiu's mouth with disgust.
