Rebirth of the Splendid Phoenix

Chapter 118
Xie Jinhua didn't ask much about the outside world. During the time in the Xuanfu Division, although the place where he lived was not so exquisite, and there were only two serving maids around him, it was the quietest day since Xie Jinhua's rebirth. .

The wind and rain of the outside world cannot touch Xie Jinhua. She just needs to stay in the Xuanfu Department to cultivate quietly. When she is free, she designs the garden and often discusses the future residence with Qin Zheng.

Except for the absence of Qin Zheng at the beginning, after that night, no matter how busy he was every day, he would always come back here. Every time he came back, he would bring Xie Jinhua many interesting gadgets, small objects, or It is a street snack.

None of them are precious things, but they were collected with great effort.

Those things are almost all over the streets and alleys of the capital.

Xie Jinhua thought at first that Qin Zheng asked his subordinates to help collect them, until he found out that everything was collected by Qin Zheng himself.

Xie Jinhua also persuaded Qin Zheng not to come back every day, he was already very busy and had to rush here every day, Xie Jinhua was worried that his body would not be able to bear it.

It's just that Qin Zheng didn't want to, so he secretly told Xie Jinhua that coming to her and taking a look at her was the best way for him to relieve his fatigue.

"Every time I see my sister, I feel that my whole body is full of strength."

These are Qin Zheng's original words.

Xie Jinhua couldn't persuade him either.

Unable to persuade Qin Zheng, Xie Jinhua told the two maids who were sent by Qin Zheng to prepare the medicinal ingredients, and she personally directed and cooked them.

In her previous life, in order to please King Qi, she specially studied a lot of medicinal foods that are beneficial to the body. Otherwise, she would not be proficient in so many medical skills, and she learned them by the way.

When Qin Zheng drank the medicinal food for the first time, Xie Jinhua still remembered the slight sparkle in his eyes.

"Do you like to drink?"

"It's the best drink I've ever had in my life."

No matter how well the herbal diet is made, it always has such a strange herbal taste, but Qin Zheng seems to have drunk the delicacies of mountains and seas.

"When I recover from my injury, I will cook it for you myself."

Xie Jinhua blurted out this promise: "It's even better than the current one."

After that time, every time Qin Zheng came to the Xuanfu Division, he would drink the medicinal food that had been kept warm in the kitchen.

In a blink of an eye, ten days have passed, Xie Jinhua has been using the medicine left by Zheng Qianqiu, and the wound on his body has already healed.

People from the Xie family came to pick her up.

It was Qin Zheng's best effort to keep her clean in the Xuanfu Division for more than ten days.

When the people from the Xie family came to pick up Xie Jinhua, the two girls beside him wanted to find Qin Zheng, but Xie Jinhua stopped them.

Give them the revised architectural drawing: "Generally, I haven't changed it, just made some small changes. No matter how carefully the drawing is drawn, it's better to see it with my own eyes. It's better to change it when I have time. , I’ll wait for him to pick me up and take a look at his new home, I’m looking forward to it.”

When Xie Jinhua explained these words, his brows and eyes were full of tenderness.

The two girls looked at each other in dismay: "My lord, tell us to follow the county lord, do you think we are not serving you well? We can change it."

This is Xia Yi, who has a more lively personality, and his face is full of embarrassment at the moment.

"You are serving very wholeheartedly, but the Xie family is not a place to stay for a long time. You don't need to go with me, and the Xie family will not let the people from the Xuanfu Department go. I will come out from the Xie family in the future."

For the last sentence, Xie Jinhua's voice was so low that the two girls who were close at hand didn't hear it.

"Then at least wait until the adults come back."

The calmer Xia Xuan said.

"When Ah Zheng comes back, I guess it will be even harder to leave."

Xie Jinhua couldn't help laughing.

Although she likes the cleanliness of the Xuanfu Division and is somewhat nostalgic for such a life, her surname is always Xie now. No matter whose child she is, she and the Xie family cannot be separated in the short term.

The one who came to the Xuanfu Division to pick up Xie Jinhua was Qingying who was beside Huang.

Qingying's complexion is not very good-looking, she is very haggard. Xie Jinhua noticed that her cheeks are still a little bruised and she walks with a limp. Qingying has always been pampered by Huang's side, and I don't know who made her Such a mess.

Xie Jinhua suddenly thought of what Lily told her some time ago about Xie Shangshu's sudden dissatisfaction with Huang Shi and Xie Jinyao.

"Second Miss, Madam has been thinking of taking you back home a few days ago, but the house is a bit chaotic right now. Thinking of your injuries, she dragged it on till now."

Qingying's attitude is more respectful than before Xie Jinhua and Huang's face was torn apart.

He was not at all impatient because of the time Xie Jinhua lost talking to the two girls.

Xie Jinhua guessed in his heart that something must have happened in Xie's mansion, and it was not a small matter.

Because Xia Yi and Xia Xuan were two girls, Xie Jinhua didn't let Lily come over a few days ago, so he didn't know what happened in Xie's mansion. Sitting on the carriage sent by Xie's mansion, Xie Jinhua speculated with.

At the gate of Xie's mansion, Mrs. Huang, the second wife and a bunch of maids and servants were waiting there, and Lily was also there.

As soon as Xie Jinhua got off the carriage, Lily greeted her impatiently: "Miss, you've lost weight."

His eyes were full of distress.

Xie Jinhua couldn't help laughing: "In your eyes, I was never fat."

"I'm really thin, Qingying. Go back and ask the kitchen to prepare some things to replenish your body. Hua'er has really suffered this time, but you have to calm her down. By the way, are the brazier and grapefruit leaves ready?"

"Hua'er, you'll get out of the brazier later, and then use grapefruit leaves to get rid of bad luck. Soy bean pig's knuckle noodles are also prepared. Anyway, my daughter will definitely turn her luck in the future.

The Huang family in front of Xie Jin's painting looked like a loving mother, and kept giving instructions to the maid beside her. While holding Xie Jinhua's hand, she kept scanning her whole body, her eyes full of distress.

Xie Jin's expression on the screen is also touched, but his brows are frowning in his heart.

There is nothing to be courteous, and it is either a traitor or a thief.

It's not that she likes to think too badly of people, it's that the Huang family has never had any kindness towards her.

After stepping over the brazier, he washed the grapefruit leaf water again. Xie Jinhua kept Lily while washing, and sent everyone else away.

Then he asked Lily about the Xie family and the capital in the past ten days.

During the ten days in the Xuanfu Division, Xie Jinhua could steal leisurely, and when he returned to the Xie Mansion, Xie Jinhua couldn't ignore many things, and he had to know clearly.

Only then will she be able to accurately judge what she will do next.

Lily is just a girl, and she doesn't know much about the details, but what she said is enough to make Xie Jinhua think deeply.

Ten days is very short, but ten days can change many things.

Xiyuan's spies personally admitted that the matter of Tianxiangyuan was a conspiracy of Xiyuan, and there was a so-called Xiyuan son in the prison, all the people in Daqing were full of disgust for Xiyuan, and some young and radical people in the court advocated launching a war against Xiyuan.

In short, if Daqing launches a war against Xiyuan at this moment, most of the people will support it.

It's just that the emperor obviously never thought of provoking a war. He acquiesced to push everything to Xi Yuan, not for the two countries to fight, but to get ready-made benefits from the negotiating table.

The emperor sent the Baili family to lead the army to the border to deter Xi Yuan, but he also sent the fifth prince, King An, to the border to negotiate with Xi Yuan's representative.

It is said that the result of the negotiation is not bad. Although Xiyuan will not ask Daqing for these things, some small concessions can still be made because of his own shortcomings.

This made King An's reputation surpass the emperor's sons for the first time before he returned to Beijing, and he became a powerful candidate for the crown prince among many people in the ruling and opposition parties.

Contrary to King An's complacency, the eldest prince and King Qi have been reprimanded by the emperor in court several times recently.

The eldest prince has always been blunt, and the empress was grounded by the emperor some time ago. Many people in the court were disappointed in him. This time, it just let more people know that the emperor really has no intention of cultivating the eldest prince.

But King Qi is different.

He has always been known for his wisdom, and the emperor praised him for his outstanding ability in court several times. Many people have expectations for him, Xie Han and Huang Shi are one of them.

The letter of thanks has never expressed open support for King Qi, and even the matter of King Qi has always been avoided.

He has always been loyal only to the emperor.

But if the thank you letter didn't have that kind of thought, how could he let his eldest daughter marry King Qi back then, and how could he acquiesce in the end that Huang's toss in every possible way, thinking of Xie Jinhua or Xie Jinyao marrying King Qi.

The Huang family is also optimistic about King Qi, so she thinks that if something happens to her eldest daughter, Xie Jinhua will ask Xie Jinhua to take a seat next to King Qi first.

All the calculations were made when King Qi was expected to take the throne.

Xie Han even knew that many of King Qi's secret forces were discovered by the emperor and then destroyed. Among them, Qin Zheng played a big role and dealt with them according to Xi Yuan's reputation as a spy.

Xie Jinhua heard many questions from the rough rumors from Lily's mouth.

She didn't know more of the inside story, but she at least concluded that King Qi was in trouble, and the Xie family might want to withdraw.

"Miss, the atmosphere in the mansion these days is weird. Not to mention the master has punished the wife and the third lady several times, the wife has completely restrained the third lady's feet and forbade the third lady to go out."

"Anyway, miss, be careful."

"Where is Prince Qi's Mansion?"

"Is anyone coming?"

Xie Jinhua wiped her body clean, put on her underwear, and was about to ask Lily about something else when there was a knock on the door.

It was Mrs. Huang, and the girl behind her was holding a bowl of noodles with soybeans and pork knuckles.

The chopsticks in Xie Jinhua's hands were spinning in the pig's knuckle noodles, and Mrs. Huang sat down in front of Xie Jinhua.

"You child is also full of disasters. You even lost your life several times. In front of you, Master Kong said that you have great blessings. How could you encounter such a thing? Really, I really don't know how to say it. All right."

Xie Jinhua just listened to Huang talking to himself over there.

She believed that Mrs. Huang would reveal her purpose later.

"I thought that Master Kong is so powerful, I must not be wrong, so many things happened to you, it must be because you came back last time you went to the Buddhist temple and did not sincerely worship the Buddha. Master Kong's whereabouts are uncertain, and I also I couldn't invite him, so I thought, invite a living god with strong spells, and give it to you well, and go to the entire Xie family to remove bad luck, what do you think?"

Huang's eyes were dark.

Xie Jinhua is the county lord, even if she doesn't have a title, she is still a high-ranking county lord. The Huang family doesn't treat her as they used to.

Xie Jinhua glanced at her, and under Huang's surprised gaze, he nodded without further rebuttal.

If he wants to know what the Huang family and even the Xie family are going to do, Xie Jinhua just needs to follow the trend.

She doesn't want to get involved with Xie's family anymore, this may be an opportunity.
