When the servant Wang left the house and the servant came in with clothes, Zhao Xuewen knew that he had survived.

A lieutenant cannot go to great lengths to deceive him.

"Mr. Zhao," the thirteen or fourteen-year-old maid stepped forward and saluted, "I will help you freshen up. The doctor will come to give you medicine soon."

Zhao Xuewen nodded, sat on the chair, and let the maid play with him.

When the maid carefully took off his clothes, the fabric stuck to the wound was pulled, making Zhao Xuewen cry out in pain, and the maid immediately knelt at his feet and begged for mercy.

Zhao Xuewen stared at all this in a daze. He felt like he was thrown into the snow, and his whole body was frozen. Now with the maid's fearful expression, his body slowly warmed up and finally began to feel. .

"Get up." Zhao Xuewen ordered, and the maid stood up and undressed him again.

He has experienced more twists and turns these days than he has experienced this year.

If there was no one around, Zhao Xuewen would rather cry happily. Anyone who almost died would feel like this. He felt that the world was so beautiful, and he didn't want to experience the fear before.

After washing up, the doctor also changed the medicine, Zhao Xuewen could finally lie on the bed peacefully. Zhao Xuewen didn't know when the king's servant would come, and how he should do things for the emperor. Just thinking about it, Zhao Xuewen fell asleep. On fire.

The next day, the maid came in to serve him again and had breakfast. Just when Zhao Xuewen wanted to find out what he wanted to do today, the maid came in with two stewards.

The steward saluted Zhao Xuewen: "Master Zhao, let's go back to the house now. The house still needs to be tidied up, and you still have to make up your mind on some things."

How did Zhao Xuewen know what house the steward was talking about? He stayed in a small inn at the north gate when he came to Beijing. However, at this time, he did not dare to ask and could only listen to others' arrangements.

The carriage walked all the way to the east city. Zhao Xuewen looked out through the curtains. The east side was very close to the palace, surrounded by yamen, and beyond were the mansions of dignitaries. He had been in Beijing for so long, but he had never dared to go east. , I didn’t expect that this time I would be taken here in a carriage.

"That's it."

The carriage stopped and the steward stepped forward to help Zhao Xuewen.

Zhao Xuewen looked at the tall courtyard in front of him and didn't know what to say for a moment.

The steward reported respectfully: "The emperor knows that the Zhao family is not from the capital, so he specially rewarded the house."

Zhao Xuewen's heart almost jumped out of his chest. Even if the Zhao family saved for several lifetimes, they would never be able to live in such a house. But now the imperial court rewarded it to the Zhao family.

Zhao Xuewen reached out and grabbed the steward: "Let me ask, has my... niece already passed the door?"

Only if Sister Luo is Princess Yu, can she reward the Zhao family with a house.

The steward shook his head: "Not yet, Da Zongzheng and several princes are in Taozhou visiting Prince Yu to marry him."

Zhao Xuewen couldn't believe it even more. Prince Yu fell in love with Sister Luo, so he wanted to go through all the trouble to propose marriage?Is there anyone in the Zhao family who can refuse to agree?
The faces of Mrs. Yang and Zhao Xueli flashed in Zhao Xuewen's mind.It's really ridiculous. They are just farmers. If they really have the opportunity to marry a clan relative, they don't want to thank their ancestors for their blessing.

The steward continued: "I used to work for the clan, but I heard some news that Prince Yu is particularly concerned about the girls in your family, so it was not enough to marry Princess Changle and Da Zongzheng, so he invited two more Lord Marquis, the two lords of the court are going together."

If this was not the person arranged by the king's servant, Zhao Xuewen would never believe what he said.After entering the house, Zhao Xuewen took a breath again when he saw the situation in the house. The yard had not been repaired yet, but when he looked around, there were already about a dozen servants busy. In addition, there were ten more servants in the yard. Several boxes were placed there, and servants were taking items out of the boxes.

This is to prepare the yard from the inside out so that people can move in directly when they come.

Zhao Xuewen began to understand the meaning of Wang Shi's words. The Zhao family had long been extraordinary, but no one came to inform him. It was obvious that they had not taken him to heart.

"Master, Master." Jiang's voice came.

Zhao Xuewen looked over and saw Mrs. Jiang and Zhao Yuanchang coming straight for him.

Jiang's face was still filled with surprise, while Zhao Yuanchang looked around curiously.

Seeing Zhao Xuewen, Jiang immediately said: "They said they would take us to Beijing. I still didn't believe it. I didn't expect it to be true."

After saying that, Mrs. Jiang thought again: "They also said that the master is in trouble. What happened?"

Zhao Xuewen looked at the servants working around him, but did not speak for a moment. The steward next to him said, "I will take the master and his wife to the inner house."

Zhao Xuewen, Jiang, and Zhao Yuanchang followed the steward until they were ushered into a main room of the inner house.

The steward closed the door, and Zhao Xuewen talked about being framed and imprisoned. Naturally, he didn't mention it in the middle. He vaguely remembered holding the woman in his arms.

Mrs. Jiang was inevitably frightened for a moment, and then she pointed outside: "You said this village is for our Zhao family?"

Zhao Xuewen nodded, but soon he shook his head: "You forgot, we have secretly ran away with our father. If we want to return to the Zhao family, my mother and brother may not agree."

Ms. Jiang's eyebrows almost stood up: "Why? We have taken care of dad all the way. Is it wrong to serve dad? No matter how wrong dad is, how can he deny it? If this is revealed, Sister Luo will never get married."

Compared with Zhao Xuewen who was worried, Jiang didn't care at all. Zhao Yuanchang even walked around the table and reached out to touch the ink block on the table.

"Dad, there are gold characters on this ink."

Mrs. Jiang took one look at it and smiled and said, "Take it if you like it, it's all yours."

Zhao Xuewen stopped him and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Maybe those things were given by the emperor. If you broke them, how can you explain to me?"

Mrs. Jiang looked at Zhao Xuewen: "What did the master say just now? This house was given to the Zhao family. The master is the eldest son of Zhao and the elder brother of Zhao Xueli. The master should be the master of this family. There is nothing he can do about it." ? Later I will go and see how the yard is arranged, and then divide the houses in the backyard into parts, so that when mother and the others come, they will have a place to stay. "

"Don't be crazy," Zhao Xuewen scolded Ms. Jiang, "You don't know what the situation is, how dare you make random decisions?"

"Are you stupid?" Mrs. Jiang grabbed Zhao Xuewen. "If I can't act like the eldest son of Zhao at this moment, will they be able to recognize him in the future? On the contrary, I have to let everyone know that we are Princess Yu’s uncle’s family will not be able to talk about anything else after Mom and the others arrive.”

"What happened to me this time is all because of them. We can't let them take all the benefits. We can only suffer along with it."
