After becoming a widow, I raised my traitor brother

Zhou Xianyuan said: "Sister Jiuli?"

Seeing that there was no surprise on his face, Wei Zi couldn't help but ask: "Your Highness knows that she is entering the palace today?"

Zhou Xianyuan seemed to have something unspeakable, so he just bowed his head and remained silent.

The maid who took care of Zhou Xianyuan's daily life brought hot tea and said, "The concubine doesn't know something. Miss Murong often comes to our place and curses His Highness the Crown Prince through a palace wall. The most common curse is 'trash'," Liar', but how has our Highness ever deceived her? It's simply inexplicable!"

Zhou Xianyuan lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea, then whispered: "She is still young, so she can be coquettish and willful."

"Your Highness, she scolded you like that, do you call that 'coquettish and willful'?!" The eldest palace maid was a little angry, and turned to Wei Zi, "She only comes once or twice, but she comes almost every day, which is better than getting up early. A sparrow looking for food must be on time! No one in the world can resist her cursing every day. It is because of the kindness of our Highness that we tolerate her until now!"

Wei Zi held up the tea cup and felt a headache thinking of Murong Jiuli's arrogant and wilted appearance.

She asked with concern: "Is there some misunderstanding between His Highness and her?"

"Isn't that true?" Zhou Xianyuan thought for a moment and shook his head firmly, "It must be because I didn't visit her during the years when she was sent to the temple to repair. She loved me, so she also hated me."

Wei Zi recalled an incident——

Last year, Wei Feishan went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to visit Murong Xiangxue. The two of them got drunk. Murong Xiangxue shouted drunkenly: "My sister-in-law doesn't know yet. Over the years, the prince's brother has often sent her things in private, such as persimmon cakes." There are pens, inks, paper and inkstones, beautiful skirts, etc., but I cut them all off halfway, hehe, I’m so smart!”

When she recalled this incident, she couldn't help but look at Zhou Xianyuan.

When Murong Jiuli went to the temple to clean things up, His Highness the Crown Prince never went to visit her, and all the things he sent to her were robbed. In Murong Jiuli's eyes, it was equivalent to His Royal Highness having ignored her for many years and had completely given up. Got her.

She had been alone in the temple for so many years, how could she not feel resentful in her heart?

Wei Zi told Zhou Xianyuan what he had thought of.

Zhou Xianyuan clenched his hands tightly, with a face full of disbelief: "How could this happen?! No wonder, no wonder she never sent me a reply, because she never received it! No wonder she always treated me like a girl after returning to Beijing. With raised eyebrows, she thought I didn’t want her anymore, she thought I was a hypocritical and heartless man!”

While he was shocked, his clear face showed deep distress.

Sister Murong lost her mother when she was young, and no one in the prime minister's office cared about her. She left her hometown alone at a young age and stayed in a deserted temple for so many years. She must have been so aggrieved and lonely!

After all, it's his fault, it's his fault that he can't even protect a little girl.

No wonder she always calls him a waste.

Zhou Xianyuan's eyes turned red: "She is right, I am really a waste."

He couldn't deal with the prime minister or resist his father, he couldn't protect his mother, and he couldn't help his beloved girl.

Negative emotions surged, Zhou Xianyuan raised his hands to cover his brows in defeat, and laughed at himself: "Miss Wei, God gave me the status of Crown Prince, but I can't do anything well. I'm not smart enough, I can't even calculate, I No one can protect anyone. Perhaps it was the right decision for my father to abolish my position as crown prince. A fool like me cannot protect the country and the common people."

Wei Zi looked at him.

She did not think Zhou Xianyuan was a fool.

He is a normal person, but he seems so mediocre because there are too many amazing and talented people around him.

But he has a kind heart, and Wei Zi believes that such kindness is much more important than the so-called intelligence.

She comforted: "His Highness once protected my daughter, has His Highness forgotten? On the day of the recognition banquet, it was you who helped my daughter get rid of that scumbag Xiao Lingxiao. My daughter is still very grateful to you."

If it were anyone else, she might not allow her to reconcile, but would only advise her to work together with Sun Huangchan.Many people in power cannot see a woman's pain. They only care about whether a family is reunited and intact.

"In addition to my daughter, there may be many ministers who are interested in you both inside and outside the court." Wei Zi said softly, "As far as my daughter knows, there are many people among the people who are thinking about you. A kind-hearted gentleman will not be What people forget.”

Seeing that Zhou Xianyuan's mood had softened a lot, she got up and left.

As for the relationship between Zhou Xianyuan and Murong Jiuli, she did not intend to interfere too much. She believed that they could resolve their misunderstanding.

……

The days in Jibei Palace were peaceful and peaceful. Zhou Xianji protected her very well. Although she was in a cage-like palace, she had a freedom that was difficult for others to achieve. No force could reach in and spy on her. Life.

When she went back to the Duke's Mansion for a wedding visit a few days ago, she even took Heantang's little orange and tortoiseshell cats back to the palace, because Zhou Xianji allowed her to keep all kinds of cats and dogs in the palace.

News related to Xiao Fengxian has never been heard in the past month.

Who was sent to prison, whose whole family was exiled by him, etc., etc., although it was all negative news, he rose to the top step by step because of this, and now he has sat in the high position of Shangshu.

It is already the season of summer, the white sunshine is shining outside the corridor, and the vegetation beside the pond is becoming more and more lush and green.

Inside the waterside pavilion, Wei Zi took a peacock tail to tease the cat. Listening to Qing Ju's descriptions, she felt sorry for Xiao Fengxian for some reason.

She couldn't be with him, so she always felt that he was fighting alone.

"Wei Zi, Wei Zi!"

A rapid voice suddenly came from afar.

Wei Zi stood up and looked around. Murong Xiangxue walked in angrily with long strides.

Behind her was Wei Feishan, and the relationship between the two was very good now.

Wei Zi sat down at the carved round table, lowered her eyes and took a cup of fruit to drink.

Jin Mei stood by and said majestically: "Miss Murong, Your Highness is recovering from illness. Please stop yelling."

Murong Xiangxue's eyes were red: "Wei Zi, what did you say to the prince brother?! Murong Jiuli hated him before, but since he wrote a letter to Murong Jiuli a while ago, Murong Jiuli suddenly stopped hating him. Yesterday, I even came home from the palace with a smile! I checked and found that you were the only one who met the prince brother in the cold palace a while ago! What methods did you use?!"

Wei Zi smiled: "Have they really reconciled?"

"You're still laughing!" Murong Xiangxue was about to collapse, "It's all your fault!"

Wei Zi suppressed her smile and said calmly: "They are an unmarried couple. Whether they reconcile or not, what does it have to do with you? I heard that the Prime Minister wants to marry you to another prince. What are you doing to pester His Highness? ?”

Murong Xiangxue was stunned and secretly clenched her hands.

Her grandfather is indeed planning to marry her off to a promising prince, but he is still waiting to see how.

but……

But I don’t know when she began to take the fake show seriously and actually fell in love with the prince’s brother.
