Chapter 6 The Regent He's Not Going

Although Zhen Tingyun grew up in the countryside, he seldom moves needles and needles on weekdays, but his hands are white and delicate.

At this moment, she raised her hand and swayed in front of people's eyes. Her fingers were long and fair, with distinct joints, like spring bamboo shoots and green onions. The nails above are also trimmed, pink and white, as if they were the finest pink pearls.

However, looking at the fingers swaying in front of him, the smile on the man's face also paused and gradually narrowed. He only frowned at Zhen Tingyun and did not answer her words.

Zhen Tingyun looked at him with a sincere look of worry, but he secretly said in his heart: Mom, shouldn't it be really stupid.

Zhen Tingyun was so shallow in the end that the man could guess what she was thinking just by looking at her. He frowned and explained coldly, "I just don't remember, I'm not stupid."

Zhen Tingyun paused for a while, and then gradually understood what the so-called "just don't remember, not stupid", and asked tentatively, "Then, do you still remember your name?"

After understanding, she now somewhat understands the man's violent interrogation behavior at the beginning - of course, understanding is one thing, forgiveness is another.

The man shook his head.

Zhen Tingyun looked at the confusion that flashed across his face, and suddenly became a little excited, and tried with a smile: "It's not good to call you like this, why don't I call you a name first? ."

The man didn't care about this, but just looked at Zhen Tingyun in a relaxed manner.

While thinking about it, Zhen Tingyun said, "Since you were brought back by Ma Lantou from my family, why don't you just take his surname? Just call it Ma..."

"Wait." The man interrupted Zhen Tingyun's chatter and said with a frown, "I remember."

Zhen Tingyun looked at him suspiciously: How could he just say "don't remember anything" and then say he remembered it?

The man said with a calm expression: "Yuan Hui, the dark of the 'chao bacteria does not know the dark age'."

Zhen Tingyun expressed his admiration for him: "You didn't even remember the name until you remembered 'Chao Mun does not know the dark moon', that's great!"

Yuan Hui nodded slightly and did not respond.

Zhen Tingyun didn't blush, and continued to speak cheekily: "You already know the name taboo, why don't you go to the government to see? Maybe your family has already reported to the official to look for you. After all, you don't remember anything about it. Yes, it's better to go home early..."

God knows how much she wants to bring this dangerous horse thief to justice!

Yuan Hui raised his eyebrows, looked at her with bright eyes, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised: "This is not possible, I have promised to teach Miss Zhen equestrianism. Where can I ignore the grace of saving my life and leave halfway?"

Zhen Tingyun was still struggling to his death: "I just remembered that in a few days, my grandmother and I will leave for Beijing. It would be inconvenient for you to follow."

"Nothing," Yuan Hui laughed and responded casually, "I also want to go to the capital to have a look. I just happened to teach you something on the way."

Zhen Tingyun deeply felt that she was carrying a big burden, which she actually carried on her own initiative. The more she realized that her journey to Beijing was hopeless.

Even so, Zhen Tingyun couldn't do anything to save half of the people and then leave it behind. After sitting and saying a few words, seeing Yuan Hui's body was not in good shape and his face was tired, he asked him to rest first and get off by himself. Go upstairs to speak with Manager Lin.

It's just that Manager Lin got up early and didn't see anyone. It was said that he went out to inquire about news.

Zhen Tingyun had breakfast while waiting for Manager Lin to return.

When Manager Lin came back, Zhen Tingyun asked him to sit down beside him, and asked when the rain stopped and when he could leave.

Manager Lin went outside to inquire early in the morning, and at this time, seeing Zhen Tingyun asking about this, his face was also a little embarrassed: "The royal guard of the regent is still standing in front - the regent is not leaving. , we can't leave." After speaking, he whispered to Zhen Tingyun what he had inquired, "I heard something happened, I'm afraid I will stay for a few more days..."

It was about the Prince Regent, and Zhen Tingyun couldn't say anything else.

Speaking of which, the Daxi royal family has been passed down to this generation, and there is something wrong with the descendants. There were only three brothers in the total of the first emperor. One died in the early years, and now there are only two left, one is the king of Yan and the other is the king of Su. King Yan was obsessed with the technique of elixir and longevity. He discussed Taoism with those Taoists all day long, and now he is spending his days refining alchemy in Beijing. King Su was the younger brother of the late emperor, and he was enshrined a long time ago. Border, rarely return to Beijing.

However, the late emperor was not in good health, and he only had an only son under his knees. Before the late emperor came, he looked at the young only son, the young and beautiful queen, and the old ministers of the cabinet. He couldn't let go of his heart. He was worried that the master, the young mother, and the strong would be in danger of harming the country. Crowds of puppets. Therefore, before the late emperor came, he named King Su, who was far away on the border, as the regent in front of everyone, and ordered him to return to the court to assist him and take charge of the military affairs with the cabinet ministers.

As a result, at the beginning of the year, the mountain tomb collapsed, and people like Zhen's father had already entered the court to report their duties, but the regent had just used the excuse of guarding against the northern barbarians and handing over the fief, which has been delayed until now before returning to Beijing. Not long after they left, the guard of honor of the regent king stopped again, blocking Zhen Tingyun and the others, unable to advance or retreat.

Zhen Tingyun was also worried when he thought about it, so he changed the subject and asked about Yuan Hui's condition.

Zhen Tingyun rested early last night, and it was Steward Lin who helped take over the delivery of the doctor to buy medicine. Now, when someone asks about it, he deserves it: "The doctor said that he has some flesh wounds on his body, and he needs to be treated with medicine to support him. Just take care of it. The injury on the back of the head seems to have been smashed by something. Now I can't see anything. I can only apply medicine and bandage it first, and then look at it later. By the way, the doctor saw that he still had some fever, so he prescribed it. some medicine..."

Zhen Tingyun nodded, expressing his understanding, and then asked, "Can't he get on the horse in this situation?"

As soon as Manager Lin heard this, he knew that Zhen Tingyun was afraid that he had not given up the idea of ​​worshipping the horse thief as Mr. Equestrian. He couldn't help but his teeth hurt, and his mouth responded: "The doctor said, before the injury on the back of the head is healed, It's best not to exercise vigorously."

Zhen Tingyun: "...Okay."

Manager Lin then discussed with Zhen Tingyun to stay at the inn for five or six days to see the situation - if the former Regent really didn't leave, they could only go to the side to see if they could take a detour to the capital. .

Zhen Tingyun responded one by one. Seeing that it was late, he said, "I'm afraid my grandmother is about to wake up, so I have to go check it out. Uncle Laurin, you are more concerned about other things."

Manager Lin responded quickly.

Zhen Tingyun then got up and walked back. After returning to the room, Mrs. Zhen was already awake.

The two little girls brought by the family, Ba Zhen and Liu Shun, are being sent around by Mrs. Zhen's envoys.

Speaking of which, the Zhen family was not considered a wealthy family even in the clan. Master Zhen went early, leaving only Mrs. Zhen, a widow, pulling her only son. It was really difficult. Others, do some needlework at home to save money. But Zhen's father was smart since he was a child. He was a seed for reading, and there were so many places that cost money. Naturally, the life of the Zhen family was tight. Fortunately, Father Zhen was lucky. He met Mr. Pei who was suspended and dismissed from office. Mr. Pei accepted him as his apprentice, taught him to read, and even promised to love his daughter in the end.

Later, Mrs. Pei got married to Zhen's family, and she also married two girls. She also hired a woman to be in charge of the kitchen. This was very much talked about by Mrs. Zhen, and she felt that her daughter-in-law was really a loser. Later, Mrs. Pei went to Beijing to find her husband with her eldest daughter, and took away the two girls she married with, leaving only the old woman who was in charge of the kitchen.

Madam Zhen felt that she was old and strong, that she didn't need these people, and was angry with Mrs. Pei, so she dismissed the old woman and took her granddaughter to live at home - anyway, her son had become a jinshi, and the family had all the fields. No shortage of silver. As a result, when Zhen Tingyun grew up to five or six years old, Mrs. Zhen was thinking about teaching her granddaughter some housework, and she also took a break to enjoy the happiness of her children and grandchildren. Zhen Tingyun was reluctant to do it. Although she was sweet-tempered, she was very clever when she spoke, so she coaxed Mrs. Zhen and said, "My father is already an official, and you are also a mother of the official master. We still have one in our family. I don’t have any girls, I have to cook and cook by myself, so that people know how to laugh at my father.” He just took the money from Mrs. Zhen, and first invited the old woman who had been dismissed by Mrs. I bought two girls, one named Liushun and one named Bazhen.

Of course, Mrs. Zhen was unwilling to pay more, so she had much less choice when buying a girl.

Liu Shun was only ten years old when he bought it. The peasant girl was born tall, tall, with a big skeleton, thick hands and thick feet, and her face was tanned and red. Granny Ya also pressed her hand for a long time. Seeing that the girl is getting bigger and better to eat, she simply bought it.

Bazhen looks neat, and looks smart and lively. It's just that she is younger, only eight years old, and can't do heavy work.

As soon as the Zhen family buys it, there are only two girls, which can be regarded as a buy-one-get-one-free.

Although Liu Shun was not well-born, he was honest and hardworking. He was tall and powerful. He could not only chop wood and draw water, but also scrub and wash well. Bazhen did some light work of sweeping the floor and wiping the table, and followed the old woman under the kitchen to fight. When she was ten years old, she was able to take over the work of the old woman and cook for the family. Ask your mother for money.

Now that he was going to Beijing, Zhen Tingyun thought that he should have two reliable girls by his side, so he brought Liushun and Bazhen along.

At this time, Bazhen brought hot water to wipe the face of old lady Zhen, while Liushun brought breakfast and said with a smile, "Old lady, girl, let's have breakfast first."

In the past, Liushun was born black and strong, and she didn't have to go to the ground in the sun all these years at Zhen's house, but she was much fairer, and she was born honest and honest, and now she looks very pleasing to the eye.

Zhen Tingyun had already eaten breakfast downstairs. Looking at the extra bowl of white porridge, his mind changed, but he reached out and took the porridge bowl, and then walked out: "I have already eaten this bowl of porridge. , I'll send it to the next door."

After hearing that Yuan Hui next door was temporarily unable to exercise vigorously or ride a horse, Zhen Tingyun began to re-evaluate the value of this person.

She secretly thought: Otherwise, stop the loss in time and just throw the person at the inn?

The author has something to say: I'm sorry, I forgot to update QAQ

Yuan Hui: If I don't want to get up, I'll take the surname Ma! how is this possible? !

Zhen Tingyun: Make it seem like "Yuan Hui" is your real name, haha!

(Don't look at some people with a bright surface, in fact, they almost have the surname Ma behind the scenes...)
