When the girl raised her eyes, a warm smile appeared in Zhan Yunzhu's eyes - this was the person he really wanted to see during his trip today.
He then said, if Zhao Zhao knew that he was coming, how could he not go to see him?
It turned out that he was not in the mansion.
Looking at the young man walking down the stone steps towards him, Xu Mingyi stood there and sneered in his heart.
He even came to her home. Such a shameless person is really rare in the world.
"Zhaozhao, long time no see."
His tone was as close as before, but Xu Mingyi only felt that he never knew that one day his name would be shouted so disgustingly.
She looked at the man in front of her, not hiding the coldness in her eyes: "I feel relieved when I see that it is indeed you."
Compared with the other person hiding in the dark like a poisonous snake who may be bitten at any time, it may not be a bad thing for this person to appear in the light now.
"It turns out that Zhao Zhao has been worried about me." Zhan Yunzhu said with a smile: "I originally thought that Zhao Zhao was anxious to see me. After waiting for a long time, he didn't get there, so I was the only one who came to see Zhao Zhao."
Nowadays, Zhao Zhao is really much more calm than he thought.
This doesn't even look like Zhaozhao anymore, but it attracts him more and more...
"It's enough to know that you are alive. As for meeting, we will meet sooner or later, right?" Xu Mingyi said with a hint.
At least she had to watch him with her own eyes at the moment before he died.
After saying that, Xu Mingyi took Akui and walked forward.
When I was rubbing shoulders with Zhan Yunzhu, I suddenly heard the other party sigh softly and whispered: "Zhaozhao, don't hate me so much. What happened back then was not what you thought. I can explain it to you in detail..."
Xu Mingyi's feet stagnated slightly: "Hate? You think too much."
Who would hate a fly that disturbs people's purity, a poisonous snake that only hides in the gutter?
If there was any trace of hatred, she had expressed it long ago when she cut off the other person's dog's head in her previous life.
She only has two words of disgust for this person in this life.
Seeing the girl leading the maid up the stone steps quickly, and quickly disappearing behind the red door, a wry smile escaped from the corners of Zhan Yunzhu's lips.
Zhaozhao seemed to have determined something and was very much looking forward to his early death...
And before, he had clearly only inquired into some private matters in the Zhenguo Palace - just because of this, did she want to let herself die?
Or is there something else that she doesn't like?
After all, Zhaozhao has always been a person with a clear distinction between love and hate...
However, he always has a way to make her slowly 'change' towards him...
In a dark alley not far away, looking at the young man standing alone in front of the Zhenguo Palace, Ji Wanyou couldn't help but tighten her lips.
Since the day she arrived at the palace, she had never seen Mr. Zhan again.
When she learned that his mother had died of illness, she was extremely worried, fearing that his excessive grief would aggravate his injuries with no one to talk to and no relief.
But her father was very strict with her and did not allow her to go out at all. In the past few days, she had learned not to mention the matter of occupying the young master, which dispelled some of her father's wariness, and she was able to go out today.
She originally asked the coachman to go directly to the south of the city, but as soon as she arrived, she happened to see Mr. Zhan's carriage driving out of the residential area.
So she asked the coachman to follow her.
She didn't expect that she would follow him all the way to the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion.
I never expected that I would see the scene just now...
Didn't Mr. Zhan tell her before that he and Miss Xu... are not even close to each other?
But why do you act like that when talking to the other person?
He also took the initiative to walk towards her, even smiling all the time when he spoke...
On the other hand, that girl Xu had always been cold and cold. Facing the girl who left coldly, he stood there with such a wry smile, which could be called lost...
She also faintly heard him calling the other person "Zhaozhao"...
Zhaozhao...is Miss Xu's maiden name?
How could a man who was so polite like him call a girl with whom he was "unfamiliar" by her maiden name?
Did she hear wrongly?
After all, it was so vague that she couldn't hear it clearly...
But soon Ji Wanyou shook her head in her heart.
No... Even though she couldn't hear clearly what the two of them said, the tone of his words was gentle and friendly, and the manner in which he spoke was gentle and earnest. Could it be that she had heard and misunderstood them?
But...how could this happen?
She could clearly feel how special he was to her, and she could clearly detect the silent understanding and connection between her and him...
And she can say with certainty that this is definitely not her illusion.
The girl frowned tightly, her sour heart clenched tightly, her eyes were blank and uneasy.
"Girl... do we still want to go up and talk to Mr. Zhan?" the maid beside asked in a low voice.
Isn't it too weird to hide here like this?
Mr. Qi Zhan is about to leave.
Looking at the young man who finally turned around, Ji Wanyou took another step back into the alley, making her body more invisible.
Her mind is in a mess right now and she can't see him...
She even felt that the Mr. Zhan just now felt very strange to her. She had never seen him like that before... In other words, which one was the real him?
…
After leaving the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion, Zhan Yunzhu didn't delay at all. He went to the Ministry of Personnel with the imperial edict and made some arrangements.
Seeing that he was very good at doing things and that he was appointed by His Majesty, the imperial edict also specifically stated that "the imperial court is at the time of employing people, and because of his father's special circumstances, he was specially allowed to be employed without having to observe the full period of filial piety for his parents."
"Book Province", the Ministry of officials did not delay the process.
In this way, two days later, Zhan Yunzhu successfully entered Zhongshu Province.
There was a lot of discussion in the dark.
The day after he entered Zhongshu Province, Zhan Yunzhu was sent to the imperial study room by the internal supervisor.
Emperor Qingming said: "Today, Concubine Jing is promoted to Concubine Jing and moves to Yuxiu Palace. Now that she is pregnant, all regulations allow her to be promoted to the next level above the concubine position - please draw up an edict."
This was his decision after discussing with the queen.
Zhan Yunzhu responded, "Yes," and after a moment of deliberation, he picked up the pen.
After drafting it, wait for the ink to dry slightly, and then present it with both hands: "Your Majesty, please take a look at it. I am clumsy and I don't know if there are any inappropriate wordings."
Emperor Qingming took it and after reading it, he couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.
"It's very good. This shows that he has a good literary talent and is indeed worthy of the title of gifted scholar."
"Your Majesty is so complimentary that I, a humble minister, cannot bear it."
Emperor Qingming smiled and handed the imperial edict to Li Ji: "Go and deliver the edict."
Li Ji responded and retreated.
Emperor Qingming looked at the young man who was wearing a blue official robe and had a somewhat frail look on his face, and asked, "But the injury on your body has not healed yet?"
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. The minor minister's injuries are no longer serious."
"Let's sit down and talk." Emperor Qingming picked up a memorial.
After Zhan Yunzhu hesitated for a moment, he knew that the emperor must have something to say to him, so he just said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for giving me a seat."
