"Uncle Huang doesn't understand General Han at all, so why bother chasing him blindly?" Si Ningchi glanced at Zhao Yuanzhen and then walked towards Zhao Zongheng.
"It's almost done." Zhao Zongheng looked at Si Ningchi approaching and naturally reached out to hold her hand, whispering comfortingly.
"Si Yirong has gone too far. The tomb of his late wife is so deserted." Zhao Zongheng frowned slightly, his face seemed calm, but in his heart he was already thinking about how to make Si Yirong suffer.
Since Si Ningchi entered the palace, the Xiwu Hou Mansion has not grown half as strong as the previous imperial relatives. Instead, it has been suppressed again and again. Among them is the Queen's method of Si Ningchi, but not Zhao Zongheng.
Is it the emperor’s credit?
Zhao Zongheng couldn't bear to see Si Ningchi being wronged.
What's more, he already knew that the queen in front of him was not the Si Ningchi from Xiwuhou Mansion, so he naturally had no worries.
Furthermore, Si Yirong's behavior of marrying his stepmother is really disgusting.
Although Si Yirong is still an official in the court over the years, his power and status have been reduced again and again, and even the errands arranged are neither light nor heavy. Compared with the status of Xiwuhou, he is really out of date.
!
"It's good. Instead of seeing disgusting people, it's better to stay quietly by yourself and feel more comfortable." Si Ningchi curled his lips nonchalantly and said while looking at the surrounding scenery.
"The mountains and rivers here are beautiful and the scenery is pleasant. My mother has been struggling in the back house for half her life, and now she is out of prison."
"Why do you need a heartless person to cry at the grave? It will ruin the mother's reincarnation path."
When Zhao Zongheng heard these words, he looked slightly startled and nodded seriously, feeling that what Si Ningchi said made sense.
Just as he was about to say something, he saw from the corner of his eye the soul-conscious Zhao Yuanzhen standing behind him. His eyes paused slightly and he lowered his head and asked in a low voice, "Did the emperor ask you about General Han?"
Si Ningchi responded angrily, looked at Zhao Zongheng a little strangely and said, "Your Majesty, you and your uncle are uncles and nephews after all. Why are there such big differences in matters of love? The emperor is obviously so well-behaved and sensible, but why is your uncle so so?
It’s so confusing that it makes people angry.”
Zhao Zongheng grinned.
His wife praised him!
After laughing, he silently lowered his lips and said seriously: "Uncle Huang has always protected me and always considers me first in everything he does. I think it is precisely because of this that he is a little hesitant."
"I also owe my uncle the emperor." Zhao Zongheng said in a low voice.
"If the emperor's uncle cannot correct himself, he is destined to miss General Han." Si Ningchi raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Zongheng and said.
"..."
Zhao Zongheng was a little helpless. Zhao Yuanzhen had been by his side almost day and night for so many years. There were too many conspiracies and tricks under the imperial power.
It is obvious that Zhao Zongheng has grown up now and is fully capable of handling everything on his own, but Zhao Yuanzhen is obviously not ready to let go. He is always worried that Zhao Zongheng will be in danger again, and he even cannot fully trust Si Ningchi.
To put it bluntly, I am worried about my mother’s life!
He looked forward and backward, wanted to follow his heart and pursue what he wanted, and was honest with Han Yulang without any scruples.
He was trapped in his own place by his own thoughts, and he cautiously felt that everything should focus on the court situation and the emperor.
This kind of thinking has been deeply ingrained, and it is unclear when Zhao Yuanzhen will be able to completely let go.
"Your Majesty, the road has been cleared." The guard at the front came to report, and everyone who had been waiting for a long time was finally able to set off and set foot on the road up the mountain.
"What kind of flower is this?" Fang Zhiyao pushed Si Haoze and followed him far behind. The first reason was because it was difficult to push the wheelchair. If he pushed it too fast, there would be bumps and it would make Si Haoze uncomfortable. Another reason was that
It was because Fang Zhiyao wanted to spend more time with Si Haoze.
"I have seen them before when I was marching, but I didn't know the name of the flower." Si Haoze followed Fang Zhiyao's gaze, looked at the yellow wild flowers on the roadside, smiled and shook his head.
"There are so many mountains and forests here." Fang Zhiyao occasionally talked about things at home. The fiefdom was located near the northwest, and she rarely saw such lush mountains and forests.
"If we have the opportunity in the future, let's go see the mountains and play in the water together." Si Haoze looked at her with a smile and said.
"That's settled!"
Si Haoze never thought that one day he would be able to say the word "in the future" so freely. He always felt that his future would not have much ups and downs, so naturally he had no expectations.
But now it was different, he felt as if he was alive again.
Si Haoze waved to Dong Si next to him and said, "You push, this is a hilly road, Yaoyao can walk on her own."
Fang Zhiyao was not stubborn, and obediently gave up her position and walked to Si Haoze's side, like a happy butterfly, looking left and right along the way, and after a while she already had a handful in her hand.
it took.
Si Haoze didn't know what Fang Zhiyao was doing picking those wild flowers at first, and thought it was the little girl's fun to relieve her boredom.
Until they arrived at his mother Bai's tomb, Si Haoze watched with his own eyes as Fang Zhiyao carefully placed the flowers in her hands in front of Bai's tomb, then knelt down in front of the tomb obediently and called out: "My daughter-in-law has seen her mother.
"
At that moment, Si Haoze's eyes suddenly turned red. He was once again extremely happy that he had made the right choice.
From this moment on, he deeply felt that he had a home again.
"Mother." Si Ningchi's expression was also a bit complicated. She was actually very unfamiliar with the Bai family, and was even unfamiliar with this world from the beginning, but now she seems to have gradually integrated with this world.
"I will live a good life on her behalf." Si Ningchi respectfully offered a stick of incense.
As if bidding farewell to the past Siningchi, this is also the first time that Siningchi is so determined to establish a foothold in this world.
It’s not a joke, nor is it simply ‘going through the drama’
This is her own wish. She has someone she loves and someone who cares about her. They have become an inseparable part of her. How can she let go?
What Siningchi didn't expect was that Zhao Zongheng would come forward to offer tea and incense.
The rising smoke from the burning incense candle seemed to be drifting somewhere, but the isolated grave made people's eyes sore inexplicably. It seemed that they saw Bai's gentle and happy smile, more like a sigh coming from the wind, which was unprecedented in this life.
Regretful joy.
"Husband, what kind of person is your mother-in-law?" Fang Zhiyao asked Si Haoze softly on the way down the mountain.
"A very good person. His gentle and polite smile is exactly the same as Ah Chi's." Si Haoze thought for a moment and replied seriously. Even Si Ningchi became curious. Hearing this, he couldn't help but reach out and touch his face.
"Wow, that mother-in-law must be very good-looking too!" Fang Zhiyao exclaimed, as if speaking with expectation.
