Chapter 491 The little girl who comes from sadness
Zhang Biao looked at Wu Shigong with some confusion, and then explained: "She is the lady you met in Yingzhou!"
"Oh!" Wu Shigong understood it all at once. He had been busy with so many things since he came back, and he had long forgotten about Miss Zhu named Ye. But now that Fengyang has been recovered, it is time to find an opportunity to meet her.
Then he sent the girl back to Fengyang.
However, Wu Shigong would not tell Zhang Biao everything, so he smiled and praised: "You did a good job! I will go when I have time."
After Zhang Biao left, Wu Shigong left the study and walked back to the inner house. Suddenly he saw two figures in the corner. He took a closer look and found that it was Tao Xin and Xiaojie's maid together. They were exchanging something.
Wu Shigong's face suddenly became stern, and he coughed a few times. The two of them immediately noticed Wu Shigong. The maid was frightened to death, but Tao Xin looked at Wu Shigong, stunned for a moment, and then pretended
Tsukuru didn't see him and ran away towards the door.
Wu Shigong's lungs were about to explode with anger. This kid Tao Xin didn't come over to beg for mercy, but he made an action like running away, trying to deceive others? Will he not meet Wu Shigong again in the future? It's up to him then.
How to deal with him.
But what Wu Shigong didn't expect was that he would not have time to deal with Tao Xin in the future. Because he would soon face two uproar caused by the inner house and the court.
When Wu Shigong fell asleep, Li Xin got on the carriage with the help of several maids. Before the carriage started, Li Xin asked a woman: "Have you found out clearly, where is the outer room?"
The woman immediately saluted and said: "Madam, it's absolutely right! Just follow me!"
After the carriage started, the maid who was accompanying Li Xin in the carriage complained: "My wife is so kind to me, and I want to steal food outside. It really hurts my heart."
Li Xin immediately stopped and said: "Don't talk nonsense! I am not the kind of jealous person. But the master is so..." As he said this, Li Xin couldn't help crying.
Although there is indeed some jealousy, jealousy is one thing, but Li Xin hides it very well and has never stopped Wu Shigong from bringing women into the inner house? But this time Wu Shigong actually raised an outside wife, so she is jealous
After the reputation spread, Li Xin was really embarrassed to see others!
Wu Shigong was right, Zhu Qilan was indeed a member of the royal family. However, her experience was indeed a bit bumpy.
Zhu Qilan is only sixteen years old this year. She is the granddaughter of the old King of Shu and the niece of the current King of Shu. According to the royal rank of the Ming Dynasty, her status should be a county head.
When the old King of Shu was still alive, Zhu Qilan's father had a palace fight with the current King of Shu, that is, the crown prince of the King of Shu at that time. The specific process will not be described in detail. Anyway, Zhu Qilan's father was the loser, and
The Crown Prince of Shu found out a minor crime.
This was still during the Wanli period. Since there was a crime, the old King of Shu could not protect his son, so he reported the matter to Emperor Wanli for him to handle.
But when Emperor Wanli heard about this, he felt that this matter could or could not be handled. After seeking the opinion of the old King of Shu, he placed Zhu Qilan's father in Fengyang's mausoleum, preparing to wait for the limelight to pass before thinking of a solution.
pardon.
Therefore, Zhu Qilan's family moved relatively freely in Fengyang. They were not imprisoned like other royal families who committed crimes, and they could move around the city at will. They just could not leave the city at will.
But not long after, Emperor Wanli had an affair, and then the old King of Shu also had an affair. Emperor Taichang, who came to the throne, actually had an affair again two months later. When Emperor Tianqi came to the throne, he didn't know anything about Zhu Qilan's father.
Of course, the new King of Shu will not intercede for his brother, who has a grudge against him. The matter of pardon is so dirty.
Of course, for the sake of public opinion, the new King of Shu still sent some living expenses to Zhu Qilan's father. But it was just living expenses. Zhu Qilan's father had no money left to bribe Fengyang's eunuchs and report his affairs to the ears of Emperor Tianqi.
middle.
During this period, Zhu Qilan was born. Zhu Qilan's father, who was in a paranoid state, believed that he would definitely return to Chengdu and restore his title of county king, so he gave his only daughter Zhu Qilan a complete royal education.
Year after year of disappointment, until Emperor Chongzhen came to the throne, there was still no news about Zhu Qilan's father's restoration of his title. He also fell ill due to worries, and not long after, Zhu Qilan's parents also passed away.
After that, it was Zhu Qilan's lonely life. Except for a few loyal servants and the maid she had served since childhood, there was no one else around Zhu Qilan. The only good thing was that her life was still going on, at least the living expenses of the current King of Shu were not cut off.
Pass.
But Zhu Qilan also has a wish, which is to see this colorful world outside Fengyang City. Because she has never left this place since she was born.
After Zhang Xianzhong's peasant rebel army forced into Fengyang City this time, Fengyang City was in chaos. Many officials and gentry who were slow to respond were trapped in the city, but some gentry still escaped.
Taking advantage of the chaos in the city, Zhu Qilan immediately packed up Xinruan and found a carriage to leave the city. In addition to taking her maid Xiu'er with her, she also asked a servant from her family to drive the carriage.
However, these three people had never left Fengyang City, and they could not tell the difference between east, west, north and south. They only knew how to follow others and fled. They went in and out by mistake like this, and came to the vicinity of Yingzhou City, where they met the Runing Army.
cavalry.
But as soon as he saw the officers and soldiers, the slave remembered that Zhu Qilan was not allowed to leave the city. Afraid of being punished by the king, the slave fled, leaving Zhu Qilan and Xiu'er in the hands of the Runing army.
Then Zhu Qilan met Wu Shigong. She was also afraid that Wu Shigong would discover her royal identity, so she hid her name and claimed her surname was Ye. But Zhu Qilan didn't know that the royal language she had learned since she was a child had long since betrayed her.
But it didn't take long for Zhu Qilan to rely on a woman's intuition to realize that something was wrong. First, they were separated from each other, and secondly, their treatment was astonishingly good. Especially those who came into contact with them, their attitude was too respectful.
Of course Zhu Qilan didn't know that it was Zhang Biao who was flattering him. She thought this was entirely Wu Shigong's instruction.
At this time, Zhu Qilan didn't know that her identity had been exposed, and she took it for granted that a man's attentiveness to a woman was because he coveted beauty.
In the Ming Dynasty, soldiers were originally villains, and military attachés were the villains among villains. Zhu Qilan’s master and servant had nothing of value, so the military attache who brought Zhu Qilan back and raised him privately,
His purpose is self-evident.
But Zhu Qilan still had fantasies in her heart. She was prepared to fight to be punished by the court. As long as she disclosed her identity when meeting the military attache, she would make him worry about it no matter what.
But then it seemed as if she had been forgotten. The military attache did not come at all, which made Zhu Qilan a little confused. But before Zhu Qilan could figure it out, the situation slipped into the worst direction that Zhu Qilan expected.
.
He was sent to Runing Fucheng by a small and capable army; he was placed in an elegant house; he was carefully taken care of by several wives; and he was closely guarded and guarded by a team of guards.
Well! If this wasn't enough, Zhu Qilan and Xiu'er, the master and servant, were carefully examined by two women. No need for women's intuition, they both underwent gynecological examinations, and the military attache's motives were still unclear.
Not clear?
After understanding Wu Shigong's thoughts, the master and the servant actually held each other's hands and cried for a few times. They really felt that their beautiful lives were about to be ruined by a vulgar martial artist. And the most outrageous thing was that at that time, the martial artist's body was not even with him.
I can’t even see her face clearly. But how can I fight against this helpless fate? Are we going to shout: “Grandma Qiong Yao, please save us!”
The two of them are now like condemned prisoners, waiting to go to the execution ground. But after all, they are both little girls, and it is easy to forget their worries. As Wu Shigong has not come, the two of them can feel at ease in this house.
After all, they have become accustomed to being imprisoned in Fengyang City for a long time.
As for fighting to the death, neither of them has the temperament of a fierce woman. Not to mention the strict supervision of their mother-in-law, they themselves, although they have the status of a royal family, but with this kind of life experience, what they have cultivated is nothing more than Xiaojiabiyu
That's all.
On this day, the two of them were playing little girls' games in the yard. Suddenly they heard a movement at the door, and then they heard noisy footsteps walking towards the backyard. Their faces suddenly turned pale. But what should come will eventually come.
, the two of them immediately stood up, holding on to their skirts and looking at the door of the backyard, waiting for their verdict.
The first person to come in at the backyard door was a lady with heavy makeup and fine clothes. That person was of course Li Xin, who had dressed up carefully to meet the two of them.
As soon as she saw Zhu Qilan and Xiu'er, Li Xin immediately looked at the two people with raised eyebrows. When she saw this situation, she was slapped by the doctor. Zhu Qilan and Xiu'er, who had never seen the world, were even more at a loss.
Seeing the two women in a daze, the maid behind Li Xin immediately scolded: "Why don't you salute Madam quickly?"
To be honest, Zhu Qilan felt even more aggrieved at this time. It was just that she had no choice but to commit herself to a martial artist. Zhu Qilan also imagined that her royal status could bring her a good position in the house. But now it is not just that.
The famous martial artist had a wife, and the wife looked down upon him very little. Thinking of her miserable future, Zhu Qilan couldn't help but feel sad, and her tears immediately rolled down her face.
It’s also very interesting. At this time, Zhu Qilan’s psychology is very similar to that of Li Xin, who had just been ransacked by Wu Shigong and brought home. This is the kind of terrible historical reincarnation. (To be continued...)
