Hearing this, Hongzhan already knew that what Nala said to him before was true. Concubine Xi really used Jingxin Incense on her. It was precisely because of the horror of Jingxin Incense that she aged rapidly in four years and became like that.
Vice appearance.
Faced with Dai Jia's unclear words, Hongzhan deliberately said: "Jingxin Incense...isn't it just a kind of incense? Why can it atone for her sins?"
"I don't even know how to answer you." After that, Dai Jia held Hong Zhan's shoulder and said: "Okay, I have told you everything I know, and don't forget your promise to me.
As for Leng Gong, the matter between Leng Gong and Jing Xinxiang is over now and is not allowed to be mentioned again."
After Hongzhan nodded, Dai Jiashi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, you're hungry after being here for so long. Come with me to have dinner. I asked the imperial kitchen to prepare some of your favorite dishes tonight."
You should eat more food."
Hongzhan didn't say anything, and followed Dai Jia to the side hall obediently. However, when he was moving his chopsticks, he suddenly said: "Your Majesty, can I ask you something?"
"Huh? What is it?" After a pause, Dai Jiashi added: "If it has something to do with Leng Gong and Jing Xinxiang, then you'd better not mention it. We have agreed that everything will end just now."
Hongzhan quickly shook his head and said: "No, it has nothing to do with Leng Gong, it's... I miss my mother. Can you take me to Xinzheku to see her?" Ever since he met Nala, he missed Liu especially.
After all, she is his biological mother. Even though he has not mentioned her in the past four years, it does not mean that she has forgotten her.
Dai Jiashi looked at Hongzhan strangely and said, "Ms. Liu? Why did you suddenly talk about her?"
"Actually... I have always wanted to know how she is doing, but I'm afraid that you won't allow it, so I didn't dare to mention it. Madam, it's just a trip to Xinzheku. It's not a big deal. Just promise me this time.
.”
Faced with Hongzhan's pleading, Dai Jiashi forced herself to make up her mind and said: "No, there is no need to go to a place like that. Besides, Mrs. Liu used you a lot when you were a child. It's okay to disappear like this."
As soon as he heard this, Hongzhan became anxious. He took Dai Jiashi's hand and knelt down and said, "Mother, I know you don't like her, but no matter how wrong she is, she is still my mother.
Just treat me like you feel sorry for me and let me see her, please, I beg you."
Seeing him like this, Dai Jia felt very distressed and wanted to pull him up, but Hongzhan insisted on kneeling down, so he could only say: "But the noble concubine will definitely be unhappy if she knows about it. After all, she is the one who really treats you."
Good people.”
"I know, I know everything." Hongzhan nodded desperately and said: "So, please help me hide this matter from the imperial concubine. Don't let her know. Madam, I promise to meet you once and say a few words. I will never do it."
If I'm in trouble for you, please help me, okay?"
"You kid..." Dai Jiashi couldn't bear to see Hongzhan begging for him, so she said helplessly: "Okay, okay, the ground is so cold, get up quickly."
Hong Zhan's face was filled with joy and he quickly said: "Then, have you agreed?"
Dai Jiashi said angrily: "You are like this, I can't agree to it, but it's just this time, it won't be the same next time, you know?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty." After saying that, Hongzhan stood up from the ground and took Dai Jiashi's hand.
Early the next morning, Dai Jiashi brought Hongzhan to Xinzheku. With her as a concubine, the palace officials naturally did not dare to stop them and welcomed them in respectfully.
It is already early winter, but the courtyard of Xinzheku is still full of people washing clothes. Their hands are swollen and white from soaking, and some of them still have frostbite on their hands, which looks very scary.
Mrs. Dai Jia said to Nanny Song, who was standing humbly aside, "Bring Mrs. Liu here."
Aunt Song quickly agreed, and not long after, a woman with a numb expression came over. Hongzhan was less than three years old when he left the Liu family. Later, he met intermittently a few times, and his impression was already a bit blurry. If it weren't for the Nala family this time,
Even if he mentioned it, he would not think of coming to Xinzheku to meet Mr. Liu. However, no matter how vague the impression was, the blood relationship was still there. As soon as he saw the numb-looking and unkempt woman, he knew that it was his forehead.
mother.
As long as he Hongzhan...lives, he cannot erase the fact that he crawled out of Liu's belly.
"Your Majesty, Sixth Brother, she is the Liu family." In the flattering voice of Sister Song, Hongzhan said: "My Majesty, can you let me have a few words with her alone? It won't take too long."
Looking at Hongzhan's pleading eyes, Dai Jia couldn't bear to refuse and said to Sister Song: "Prepare a clean room for Brother Six so that he can talk." Then she said to Hongzhan: "Go, don't take too long.
, I am waiting for you here."
Hongzhan glanced at Dai Jia with gratitude, and then he and Mrs. Liu followed Aunt Song to the house. Mrs. Liu didn't know whether she was mentally disturbed or something was wrong, but when she saw Hongzhan, she didn't react at all, just like a
Marionette.
After Sister Song stepped back and closed the door, Hongzhan pulled Mrs. Liu to sit down. When he touched Mrs. Liu's hand, he subconsciously shrank his hand because the hand was too cold, like ice.
There was no human warmth, it was covered with terrible frostbite, and the whole hand was swollen like a steamed bun.
"Eniang, don't you recognize me?" Hongzhan stood in front of Mrs. Liu and whispered: "I am Hongzhan, your son." Different from yesterday, when facing Mr. Liu, he was very polite.
Naturally, I called out the word "Eniang", maybe... this is family affection.
Under his constant calling, Mrs. Liu's eyes gradually focused and fell on Hong Zhan's face. After a while, her expression gradually became excited and no longer as numb as before. She pursed her lips and said: "
You...are you Hongzhan?"
"Yes, Mother, I'm here to see you. Are you okay?" As soon as Hongzhan finished speaking, he was hugged by a pair of cold hands, and then a wailing voice came from his ears, "Hongzhan,
My son, E Niang finally sees your son again!"
Hongzhan did not resist and allowed Mrs. Liu to hold him and cry bitterly. He could clearly feel the excitement and pain that had been suppressed for a long time in Mrs. Liu's cry. He waited until Mrs. Liu's cry became quieter before he raised his head and said, "Eniang.
, I'm sorry that it took so long for me to come to see you."
Ms. Liu stopped crying, wiped her tears and said: "You can remember E Niang, E Niang is already very happy. I still remember that when you first left E Niang, you were only a little tall. Now you are so tall, E Niang."
Mother almost doesn’t recognize you. By the way, how can you come to see my mother? Did you beg the emperor and he agreed to let me out?"
Facing Mr. Liu's expectant gaze, Hongzhan shook his head and said, "No, I came here to ask for the imperial concubine, but don't worry, I will definitely go to ask the Emperor Ama and beg him to let you out."
After that, he asked in a low voice: "Mother, are you having a hard time here?"
