hairpin family

Chapter 40
It's the beginning of summer at this time, the afternoon sun is so bright that it's unbelievable, the official road is lined with green trees, the sun shines through the green leaves on the car body, and spots are printed on people's faces through the car windows, bright and dark Among them, Qin Zhao clearly saw Yunrui's serious expression, which made her feel cold, that feeling was both strange and at a loss.It was as if something was disappearing within her.

Qin Zhao lowered his eyelids, corrected his posture, and said respectfully, "Dad has something to teach, Ah Zhao... will listen."

"If the girl hadn't been here for some reason, Yun Rui would have been a bodyguard, and would never be able to be the girl's father. Although the girl is under six years old, a certain person knows that the girl's intelligence is different from ordinary people. There are some things that a certain person wanted to wait for the girl to grow up When you grow up, let the girl know, now it seems that it is better to let the girl know now."

Qin Zhao faintly resisted. In the past two years, although Yunrui and A Cai never said it explicitly, but between the lines, she knew that her family background might not be low, at least she was from a noble family.But it is also obvious that it is not by accident that she was able to live here, but because of some accident at home, and the accident was probably not caused by external forces, but from within the family, so she obviously came from a prominent background, but Yunrui and Ah Cai can only take her to live in seclusion at this time, but dare not and cannot go home.

In addition, she still remembers the young beautiful woman and the boy she saw when she was half asleep and half awake. Both of them are not by her side now. trace.

Although both Yunrui and Ah Cai believed that the young man would come here to pick her up one day, Qin Zhao couldn't bet his future on someone who might have the closest blood relationship with her, but she didn't even know about it. The so-called brother.For her, the power that belongs to her that she can control in her own hands is the real power.

Let's talk about her identity, no matter how prominent her family background was in the past, no matter whether she can go back to the home that she didn't expect at all in the future, and live a life that a dignitary should have, but now, she is a village girl and has to fight for herself. Fight for her future, grasp everything she can grasp, and use everything she can use to exchange for the life she needs.

Identity should serve people to get a better life, and should not be a bondage to people's lives.

It is impossible for her to give up everything she needs and will work hard for for such an unnecessary thing that can neither be seen nor touched nor expected.

Since Yunrui opened his mouth, she also wanted to hear what he had to say, and then took this opportunity to tell Yunrui what she thought.Even if he couldn't convince him, Qin Zhao didn't want to disappoint him and A Cai.After all, these two people are the best people in this world to her.Their love for her was never fake.Even if we can't reach a consensus and get their support, at least we hope to get their understanding.

"Daddy, please tell me."

Looking at Qin Zhao's solemn face, Yunrui felt relieved for her sensibility, but also felt sad that she had to face the cruel reality at such a young age: "Does the girl know what kind of family she is from?"

"I don't know," Qin Zhao shook his head with a look of sadness on his face, "Ah Zhao can't remember what happened in the past."

After Qin Zhao woke up and forgot about the past, Yun Rui knew it, because she was only three years old at that time, so it doesn't matter what she forgot, what memories does a three-year-old child have?At the beginning, he even breathed a sigh of relief because of Qin Zhao's amnesia. If it wasn't for this, Qin Zhao missed his wife Mrs. Wen Guo and cried endlessly, and if it was known that she was not his and A Cai's child, it would be really unfavorable for them .

But at this moment, Yun Rui hoped that Qin Zhao could remember who he was and what kind of family he came from.At least, if Qin Zhao remembered, maybe he wouldn't do these things now.

Yun Rui sighed secretly, and then said in a deep voice: "The girl's original surname is Qin, her grandfather is the old Huguo side-by-side king, and her grandmother, the old concubine, was originally the princess of the former dynasty, with a noble background. After the death of the girl's grandfather, the side-by-side king The girl's uncle inherited the girl's uncle, and the girl's aunt is the eldest daughter of the emperor of David, the current emperor and queen, the eldest princess Jinyang Princess. The girl's family is the righteous daughter of the Duke of Lu, after she married Qin Jiedushi , was canonized as Mrs. Wen..."

Although Qin Zhao knew that he must be from an unusual family, he never expected that he would be from such a noble family.Yun Rui told her life experience in detail, Qin Zhao finally realized that the so-called protector of the country and shoulder to shoulder king was actually more noble than ordinary royal nobles, the most noble family except for today's son.Living at the top of the pyramid, its power is incomparable to that of the general royal family surnamed Li except for today's Zizi lineage.

Her uncle, the current side-by-side Wang Qin Huaiyu, and the eldest princess Jinyang had one son and three daughters, but unfortunately the eldest son died young, and now there are only three daughters, all of whom are also named princesses.And her father Qin Huaiyong gave birth to her elder brother Qin Zhe and her.But Qin Zhe was born of Pei, Qin Huaiyong's original wife.She was born of her mother, Mrs. Wen Guo, Mrs. Shan.

If uncle Qin Huaiyu and eldest princess Jinyang have no children in the future, Qin Zhe will most likely be crowned heir son and inherit the title of side-by-side king in the future.As for her, Qin Zhao, if she hadn't come from Guan Beiping and had been homeless since she was three years old, then even if she couldn't be named a county lord, a county lord would definitely not be able to escape.

Her previous life background can't be said to be noble. Her grandfather had an extraordinary position in the military, and her father was the chairman of a well-known large domestic company. Both her grandfather and father were figures who often appeared in the news broadcasts.And her life is exactly what many people dream of living in the news network.

Although her mother died young, but with the love of her grandfather and father, she lived smoothly and richly for more than 20 years.Relying on his family background and his own intelligence, he can walk sideways in the capital, even if he finally got terminally ill, and after his grandfather passed away, he knew what kind of person the old man who had loved her for more than 20 years was like. It would be a lie to say that he was not disappointed, but She never really denied her life of more than 20 years. Until she died of illness, she lived a luxurious life with rich clothes and fine food.

But the family background in the previous life is really nothing compared to the side-by-shoulder palace that Yunrui talked about.

The so-called "protecting the country and shouldering the king", just as the literal meaning is, it is a royal family with a different surname bestowed by the emperor Taizu himself, who can stand shoulder to shoulder with the emperor.And her grandfather was king side by side, and had an extraordinary relationship with today's son.Even if her grandfather passed away, her uncle married the eldest princess who was favored by the empress.The status of the family is no more than half a point behind the time of his grandfather.

Not talking about uncles and aunts, but talking about her own parents, her father, Qin Jiedushi, was a great official in the frontier, and her mother's life level was even higher than that of her father, she was a first-rank Mrs. Wen.Although her mother Shan was an orphan, she was the adopted daughter of Chen Zhijie, Duke of Lu, who dared not offend anyone in the court, and even the emperor was courteous.

Not to mention, the founding general of the Yue Kingdom, Gong Luo, was also a god-like existence in the David Kingdom. His family background is more honorable than that of Jinshang, who was still the son of the Duke of the State in the previous dynasty. David was named the Duke of Yue after the founding of the country. Although he did not care about political affairs, after David unified the Central Plains, he retired from the temple. Wisdom is close to monsters, and he has a natural instinct for revenge. Even though it has been decades since the founding of the country, the emperor Taizu has passed away long ago, and he has been on the throne for decades, but no one in the court still dares to break ground on his head.This Duke of Yue, Luo, regards her mother, the Shan family, as if she has already been born, and his love is even more for the children born to the Duke of Yue.Yun Rui was originally the guard of the Duke of Yue's mansion, and was later given to the Shan family by the Duke of Yue as his personal guard.

Seeing Qin Zhao's dumbfounded expression, Yun Rui said slowly, "So, girl, do you understand why I don't approve of you recognizing Zhu Qiye as foster father?"

The kingdom of David has a strict hierarchy, and the most important thing is etiquette. Although six of the seven uncles are officials outside the branch, they are just small county magistrates. Her status, at best, is that of a humble scholar-bureaucrat, and she really can't be the godfather of someone who is at least at the level of a county lord.

But, her name is Yun Zhao now, not Qin Zhao.

If she is really noble, why can't she have a home?
If her mother, the Shan family, was really favored, regardless of the palace, why would she die in another country with the protection of the dukes of Lu and Yue?In this way, if her mother can't protect herself, where does Qin Zhao's dignity come from?

"Daddy has said so much, but Ah Zhao doesn't understand. Where is my mother now? Why can't I return home? And where is my elder brother Qin Zhe? You must know that he is the only son and grandson who shoulders the royal residence. Dad, you said, my elder brother is likely to inherit the throne in the future. How important is the only son and grandson to the palace? Why is there no news about my elder brother? If you want to find someone, how can you not find us?"

Although Qin Zhao knew that her mother Dan was dead, Yunrui did not tell Qin Zhao about her death, nor even mentioned the reason why they hid in this remote place.On the one hand, Yunrui didn't know the details of what happened back then. On the other hand, after he learned that the envoy of Qin Jiedu was married to Princess Murong of the Anxi Dufu Mansion, he told his wife with a son and a son. There are also several speculations about the hidden story of the woman's escape from the Jiedu Ambassador's Mansion in Beiping, and in fact this speculation is not far from the truth, but if he tells it, how sad will Qin Zhao be?That's why Yun Rui kept silent.

Qin Zhao asked questions like a cannonball, leaving Yun Rui, who was originally not good at words, speechless.

"Well, the reason why we can't go back to the capital is because we don't understand the situation in the capital now. The gentleman is afraid that he won't be able to protect the girl well, so he asked me and A Cai to protect the girl and hide here temporarily. When the gentleman comes to find the girl, At that time, I will definitely bring the girl back to Beijing to recognize my ancestors."

After all, Yunrui still treated them as temporary residence in Zhujiazhuang, and believed that he would be able to return to Beijing in the future.

One has to have some hope in life, she is unwilling to hit Yunrui, but she knows very well in her heart that they have lived in seclusion here for more than two years, and her elder brother Qin Zhe will never go to the capital city, but so far There was no news about them from the capital, and she really didn't dare to place any hope on the palace.Before she found out the real reason why they escaped from Beiping Jiedu Mansion in the first place, she couldn't have any expectations for the people in the capital, let alone she felt that her current life was pretty good.

Qin Zhao didn't want to hurt Yunrui, so he just smiled and said, "My father and I also said before that even if we go back to Beijing in the future, we can't go back to Yun with nothing, just for my elder brother, we should live now." The good ones are. We should accumulate some belongings, otherwise we will have nothing when we return to the capital. After all, the palace is controlled by the uncle and the princess. If my brother and I want to gain a foothold, yellow and white things are always indispensable. Besides, we are now Living here can be regarded as being dependent on others. It is the most correct choice to make friends with Qitangbo's family who have a lot of talk in Yunjiazhuang and even An County. Daddy used to live in such an aristocratic family. This makes sense, presumably. Zhao understands better."
