The rise of the prince

Chapter 434
Shiyu was about to tease her, when a cold wind suddenly blew outside the window, and it was inconvenient for her to hold the accounts, so Shiyu stood up to protect the candle and block the wind.

"Sister Shiyu, are you not cold?" Gillian asked anxiously after realizing it.

Shiyu shook her head, and lowered some of the wooden poles facing the window, but she didn't dare to put them all down, because there was a charcoal fire in the room.

There was a cold wind blowing outside the window, and it was winter again, so it was inevitable that there would be a chill in the room. The cold wind came in through the gaps in the window, Leng Ajiao rubbed her hands and shivered slightly.

The two sat at the same table, Shiyu thought for a while, pulled Gillian who was smaller than her, and put her on her lap, which would make her much warmer.

Gillian blushed suddenly: "Sister Shiyu"

"It's so warm." Shiyu said, wrapping her arms around her waist: "Go on."

"Oh"

Gillian was not used to it at first, but she gradually became more comfortable, warm and not cold anymore, so she concentrated on reporting.After reporting the big and small things in the mansion, the two expressed their opinions, chatted and laughed, and after a while, their hair was messed up, their cheeks were flushed, but the poems suddenly stopped talking.

The small room suddenly became quiet, and the beeping of the charcoal fire could be heard clearly, the cold wind whistled outside the window, and the atmosphere suddenly turned from dynamic to quiet.

"What happened to Miss Shiyu?"

Shiyu hugged her and whispered in her ear: "A-Jiao, I...I'm sorry for you."

Gillian was puzzled, and smiled: "Sister Shiyu, what nonsense are you talking about, how could you be sorry for me."

"It's not nonsense." Shiyu shook her head lightly: "At the beginning, you had the marriage contract with that bastard first, obviously you were the head of the family, but I...I stepped in halfway, and insisted on entering the palace without saying anything. Now that you still occupy the magpie's nest and take over the management of the palace, it should have been yours in the first place.

You are obviously distinguished, you are a talented woman, and you are also the granddaughter of the prime minister, but you call me sister every day. You are younger than me, but you respect me in everything, think of me, take care of me silently, and treat me so well, but I, I"

As she spoke, she actually shed tears. A stubborn person must have self-esteem.

Self-respecting people are the hardest to tolerate charity. Shiyu always feels that Gillian is giving her alms, but Gillian's charity is tender and silent, moistening things silently, so stubborn she can't refuse, so that she feels more and more indebted to Gillian
Hearing that she was blushing and looking pretty, A-Jiao quickly stroked her back to comfort her, and said, "Sister Shiyu, it's true that I have an engagement with the prince, but I know what happened between you and the prince. Is it wrong that your daughter's family can control it.

Let's talk about the affairs of the palace, even if you want me to take care of it, I can't take care of it. I can write poems and lyrics, and I am proficient in songs and prose, but I don't know how to manage accountants and control servants. "

Gillian laughed and put her arms around Shiyu: "Speaking of which, I still want to thank Sister Shiyu. The prince said that people have different aspirations, and they have different paths. I know that I am not that kind of material. If you are not here, I will still be there." My heart is flustered.

If the prince is not around, how can they let me take care of those things?I was so worried that I couldn't sleep for several days at night, but it was not until Sister Shiyu moved to live in the palace that my heart was relieved.

If I owe it, then I also owe Sister Shiyu a lot."

Shiyu stopped talking, and the two hugged each other quietly, and slowly Shiyu stopped crying, and whispered: "My good sister, you are a blessing I cultivated in my previous life, if I meet someone else, I don't know How should I deal with myself in the palace."

"Good sister, me too. Without you, I don't know how to gain a foothold in the palace." Gillian also laughed.

"cluck"

"cluck"

Both of them looked at each other, and then they both laughed. The whole hut slowly heated up, and there was a cold wind blowing through the window. In the night, the dry branches rustled, and from time to time, two dogs barked from a distance. The whole world was peaceful and peaceful. , Wanjia lights are isolated at the other end of the darkness.

Jiangzhou Tubi Mountain Villa, the tallest Zhengbei attic has five floors, it is considered a tall building nowadays, and it is worthy of receiving the emperor.

Li Xingzhou leaned on the railing on the fifth floor to tell He Qian a story, and a lantern was hung in the corner of the building to illuminate the surroundings.

Compared with various ghost stories, Li Xingzhou will also tell some historical stories. Sometimes history is more exciting than romance, especially the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period when various ideas collided and the core values ​​of Chinese people were formed.

There was also a reason why he told the little girl this story. It turned out that the little girl came to Jiangzhou not only to play with him, but also to vent her anger.

After He Zhao's beloved wife died, he didn't remarry for many years. In fact, He Zhao is not very old, he just turned [-] this year.So recently, he saw the daughter of a rich family on Jiangnan East Road, her husband died early, and she was widowed at home, which actually moved He Zhao's mind to continue.

Some of He Zhao's sons joined the army, some went on business trips, and they loved their youngest daughter the most, so the first thing that came to their mind was naturally to ask He Qian what he thought.

Of course the little girl felt uncomfortable after hearing this. First, she was afraid that her father would not love her when she had a woman, and second, she was afraid that her stepmother would treat her badly.

But He Qian was usually careless, but she was more sensible in her heart, she didn't object, and she pretended to be okay when she was upset.

Just at this time, his brother also got the news, and went home to meet the bride. She used the excuse of going to see the world with her brother, and repeatedly promised not to go north when she arrived in Jiangzhou, and contacted Pingnan Wang and others as soon as possible, and then came out to relax .

After the little girl confessed the truth yesterday, Li Xingzhou also realized that this was the case, no wonder she followed He Xu to the north.

After knowing the little girl's heart knot, Li Xingzhou could only comfort her and tell her a story:
"Jin Xiangong sent a large army to attack Pucheng, thinking that Chong'er was killed to avoid future troubles. Chong'er had to abandon Pucheng and go to his mother country, Zhai Kingdom."

He Qian lay on the railing and listened carefully. She was wearing a beautiful white fur cloak, and she was not afraid of the night wind. This was bought by Li Xingzhou for her after she came to Jiangzhou. It cost more than 80 taels, which is equivalent to [-] yuan. Give a county magistrate a year's salary.

"Later, Zhai State attacked the Rong tribe and captured two beautiful girls. The king of Zhai State married the young Ji Wei to Chong Er, and the elder Shu Kai to Zhao Shuai, Chong Er's follower, as his wife. They gave birth to a son named Zhao Dun. .

But at the beginning, when Chong'er was in the state of Jin, Zhao Shuai's original wife had given birth to Zhao Tong, Zhao Kuo, Zhao Yingqi and other children.

Later, Chong'er returned home and became the famous Jin Wengong, and Zhao Shuai also became an important minister.After his wife heard about his affairs outside, she asked him to bring back his uncle Kai and his son Zhao Dun who were in Zhai State. Send someone to pick someone up.

Zhao Shuai's wife took her husband's women and wild species back, and treated them very kindly.Later, she still felt that Zhao Dun was very talented, so she repeatedly urged him to make Zhao Dun the eldest son of the Zhao family and inherit the Zhao family business, while she and her own son were inferior to Zhao Dun. "

"There is no such a good woman in the world." He Qian pouted in disbelief.

Li Xingzhou smiled, and then said: "Zhao Shuaiqiang couldn't beat his wife, so he agreed. As a result, Zhao Dun was indeed a capable man, an extremely talented minister, who held great power in his hands, and helped Jin to dominate. Relaxed.

When people later commented on him, they said that even if he killed the king, few people scolded him. Why?Because when he was in power, the Jin State dominated the Central Plains, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, the products were rich, and no one went hungry or cold.So in conclusion, people don't care who is the king, they only care who treats them well.

And Zhao Dun forced his father to give him the position of eldest son because his stepmother brought him back. He treated him like his own kindness. Later, he also treated his half-brothers very well, giving them high positions and important positions. , in an important position. "

"But what if she's not like Zhao Dun's stepmother." He Qian still pouted.

Li Xingzhou smiled and said: "I didn't say that she is as good as Zhao Dun's stepmother, I just told you that not all stepmothers in the world are so terrible, you should try to understand her, you don't care, just run like this Now, the gap between the two of you will only get bigger and bigger in the future."

The little girl snorted and didn't speak. Judging by her expression, she must have listened.

Li Xingzhou didn't bother her, but he was quite curious in his heart, what kind of widow could make an old man like He Zhao fall in love with him?What a surprise.
