Rebirth of the Splendid Phoenix

Chapter 50
In the early morning of the next day, Xie Jinhua heard from Lily that a Mr. Zheng had come to the mansion, who was honored by Xie Shangshu as a guest of honour, and lived here temporarily.

Although Xie Jinhua was a little curious about this person who had never heard of him in his previous life, he was just curious.

Her mind now is on something else.

There are people from Prince Rui's Mansion.

"Second miss, the prince specially sent the younger one here for the person that the young lady took away from Prince Rui's mansion a few days ago. Lord Rui said that the people in Prince Rui's mansion bothered Shangshu's mansion. I didn't know it a while ago. It was really disturbing to find out.”

The words are nice, and the attitude of this self-proclaimed butler of Prince Rui's Mansion is also polite, but Xie Jinhua just wants to sneer when he listens.

"I brought someone from Prince Rui's mansion? I was a visitor some time ago, but I accidentally fell into the water that time, and my memory is a bit unclear. Excuse me, Lord Rui, for more information?"

Xie Jinhua just had a thought, and he guessed that it was the people from Prince Rui's Mansion in the racecourse yesterday who recognized Qin Zheng, and that's why the housekeeper from Prince Rui's Mansion came to the door today.

If Qin Zheng was still as silent and unknown as before, this Prince Rui would be as if Qin Zheng had been living here before, and he wouldn't even think of Qin Zheng.

However, Qin Zheng and Xie Jinhua saved people together yesterday, Qin Zheng was more or less remembered, and the emperor wanted to reward all those who showed bravery and meritorious deeds, Qin Zheng's identity could not stand the investigation.

Prince Rui's illegitimate son is known as a servant in Xie's family, no matter how intoxicated Prince Rui is with a beauty, he can't afford to lose this person.

The steward of Prince Rui's Mansion did not expect that he was only here to pick up Qin Zheng, who was nominally a servant, and Xie Jinhua was unwilling, and he was still so squeezed, his face froze for a moment: "Miss Xie is so forgetful, even though the young man is only a small child in the family But that day, he was being punished by His Royal Highness, and Miss Xie happened to meet her, so kindly, she rescued him."

"laugh."

Xie Jinhua didn't wait for the housekeeper to finish speaking, so he let out a sneer, with no concealment of sarcasm in his eyes: "I remembered, there is indeed such a person, a teenager, who can cause such a disaster However, His Royal Highness is beating life to death. If he met him later that day, that boy would have lost his life long ago."

When the housekeeper's expression froze and he wanted to refute something, Xie Jinhua raised his eyes: "Forget it, Zuo is just a kindness from me, and it can't be forced to stay on others."

When the steward of Prince Rui's Mansion had a reassuring smile in his eyes, Xie Jinhua changed the subject: "Since Steward Fu said that he is a servant of your Prince Rui's Mansion, do you have a contract?"

The steward of Prince Rui's Mansion was taken aback, and smiled embarrassingly: "Miss Xie, you don't know that, although the young man has no birth certificate, his mother was a slave in the mansion, so he is considered a child of the family."

"The law of Daqing states that if a child is born in a family, it is only counted if there is a deed. There is no evidence to say it. Seeing what Steward Fu means, it seems that there is no deed, so please forgive me for being powerless."

The tea cover in Xie Jinhua's hand lightly closed on the teacup, winked at Lily, but let her see off the guests.

"Miss Xie, Prince Rui personally intervened in this matter. Although the boy did not sign a life contract, he grew up in Prince Rui's mansion, and his mother was also a slave in Prince Rui's mansion. , even if the boy's affiliation is in the Yamen, he will also point to our mansion."

Butler Fu looked at Lily's gesture of invitation, his face was stained with anger, and he opened his mouth to press King Rui and Yamen.

The corner of Xie Jinhua's lips curled up slightly, revealing a wicked smile: "If Steward Fu has any doubts about my words, then we will meet in the yamen."

Since Prince Rui was able to send Butler Fu to come to Xie Mansion at this time, he couldn't make a decision to bring the matter to court.

Not to mention, Xie Jinhua would like him to make a big fuss.

"You, Second Miss, it's better to be a human being. That young man should be just a servant to you, and it doesn't matter. If you back down on this matter, Prince Rui's Mansion will think of you."

Threats do not make lures, the methods are very clichéd.

Xie Jinhua slandered from the bottom of his heart, put the tea bowl in his hand aside, folded his hands on his knees, and put his hands in a very upright posture, the half-smile on his face also disappeared: "Butler Fu is wrong, that boy Yu For me, it is a very important existence, and I will not retreat from this step."

This is already a completely broken posture.

Butler Fu shook his sleeves and left.

Xie Jinhua's voice suddenly sounded behind him: "Do you know the boy's name you mentioned?"

This question was asked suddenly and inexplicably, butler Fu frowned and looked back at the unpredictable Xie Jinhua, and forcefully dropped the words "I don't know what to say", without any intention of staying, and strode out of the door.

King Rui never even gave Qin Zheng a proper name. At that moment, Xie Jinhua no longer had the slightest regret in his heart.

Don't regret stopping the people from Prince Rui's Mansion to take Qin Zheng away.

If the other party came to pick Qin Zheng back in good faith, Xie Jinhua would let him go without saying a word, but just now the housekeeper talked about him and was unwilling to admit Qin Zheng's identity at all, how could Xie Jinhua let him people take away.

"A Zheng."

Xie Jinhua suddenly looked at the position behind him.

Qin Zheng walked out from behind the screen, his lips were pursed tightly, and his face was sullen as if he was angry, but Xie Jinhua could see the joy in his eyes: "I just came to see you and I have something to say, overheard."

There is still a little redness on the cheeks.

Because of Xie Jinhua's persuasion.

In his heart, Xie Jinhua's refusal of the butler of Prince Rui's Mansion is to persuade him to stay, and to be reluctant to part with him.

The girl's hand gently touched the boy's head: "You really don't want to go back?"

Even if Xie Jinhua prevented Qin Zheng from going back because of the attitude of Prince Rui's Mansion this time, Qin Zheng would always go back in the future.

King Rui's bloodline used to make the young man feel like purgatory in the palace, but in the future it can become a pair of wings for the young man to rise up.

It can be rejected temporarily, but it cannot be rejected permanently.

Qin Zheng stared fixedly at Xie Jinhua, and suddenly stretched out his hand to hold the girl's hand, which was caressing between his hair, with sharp eyes and brows: "I won't go!"

So determined.

"Fool, if you go back to Prince Rui's Mansion at the right time, you will have the opportunity to become a real master in the future. No one will dare to underestimate you or bully you anymore. Countless people will look up to you and respect you ,Is not it good?"

Xie Jinhua sighed, looked into Qin Zheng's eyes seriously, and said so.

She didn't try to pull out her hand, but maintained a posture that was too intimate.

"Will you be with me?"

Qin Zheng didn't answer Xie Jinhua's question directly, but asked another question instead.

Xie Jinhua was startled.

"Wherever you are, I will be there."

It's not that he doesn't have ambitions, it's not that he doesn't want to be a master, even because of his childhood experience, Qin Zheng is more eager than anyone else to become a person who is admired and admired by everyone.

However, the prerequisite for that was to have her by his side.

Without her by his side, even if he really became a master as described by Xie Jinhua, Qin Zheng would not be willing.

Xie Jinhua was startled, looking at the determination in the boy's eyes, he finally swallowed the words that came to his lips.

She wouldn't let Qin Zheng be picked up by Prince Rui's Mansion just like that while sneaking around, what she wanted was for Qin Zheng to be welcomed into Prince Rui's Mansion in an upright manner.

No matter how much good she thinks about the boy, she will have to say goodbye after all.

"Ah Zheng, there are some things that are beyond our control, so don't force it too much, isn't it good to let nature take its course?"

Xie Jinhua didn't know, his smile at the moment was a bit bitter.

As for the matter of the racecourse, as long as the emperor thoroughly investigates the antecedents, passes by, and wants to reward those who have made meritorious deeds, Qin Zheng cannot be avoided.

At that time, Qin Zheng's identity would naturally appear in front of the emperor.

Regardless of Qin Zheng's biological mother's background, he always has the blood of King Rui on his body, the blood of the royal family. Over the years, in the eyes of the polarized children of the royal family, either they have ideas about the throne and are qualified, just like King Qi , the ability is good, such pressure is not as good as it is, so how to talk about training.

However, those royal families who were farther away from the throne were all incompetent. The emperor wanted to cultivate the power of the royal family, but he never found a suitable person.

As long as Qin Zheng can be noticed by the emperor, he will surely have a bright future.

She helped him take the first step, but after that, she would gradually alienate him.

Because this is what Xie Jinhua planned from the beginning.

Helping Qin Zheng, but no longer dragging Qin Zheng down.

"What if I want to force it?"

Qin Zheng heard that his voice was a little dry.

"Ah Zheng, my sister will teach you another sentence today. The melon that is twisted is not sweet, and the person who comes by force will eventually be lost one day. There is a fate between me and you, but that fate is time-sensitive."

Xie Jinhua's eyes gradually turned cold.

She dropped this sentence, stood up, and freed her wrist from Qin Zheng's weak palm.

"elder sister."

The boy grabbed Xie Jinhua's sleeve and looked at her with pleading eyes.

Xie Jinhua thought of the arrow that Qin Zheng was shot by Princess Yong'an because of himself, his soft heart instantly became cold and hard.

"Ah Zheng, don't make me angry."

"My sister said that our fate is time-sensitive. Does it mean that my sister will leave when I enter Prince Rui's mansion in a fair and honest manner? Is it true that my sister will never associate with me again when I become famous?"

The boy's voice was short and intense, as if he had gritted his teeth and spit it out.

When Xie Jinhua hadn't decided how to answer him, he turned to Xie Jinhua, looked up at the girl's glamorous face, and said word by word: "My sister's plans are all based on me. My surname is Qin, I am the biological child of King Rui, right? I don’t know how my sister knew the secrets of Prince Rui’s mansion, how did I know the name I gave myself, but if I tell my sister now, I am not King Rui’s at all Kind of, it's all a game." A hoax.

Xie Jinhua covered Qin Zheng's mouth before he could react.

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Xie Jinhua's eyes were full of coldness.

No matter what Qin Zheng said is true or not, if others hear his words, the higher Qin Zheng stands in Daqing in the future, the harder he will fall.

I am not talking nonsense.

Qin Zheng's gaze is not inferior to cruelty, cruelty to himself, that is his biggest secret, a secret that the old woman can't tell anyone even if she dies, but when Xie Jinhua tried to withdraw , he said so.

"A Zheng, you were talking nonsense just now. You are the son of King Rui. In Daqing, you must be the son of King Rui."

Xie Jinhua's voice was extremely low, and he looked at Qin Zheng fiercely, as if he wanted to engrave these words into his mind.

Xie Jinhua covered Qin Zheng's lips, looked at the hatred in her eyes, and listened to her words, the frost in her eyes melted quickly like winter snow meeting the sun, leaving only a touch of joy.

Not very heavy, but meaningful enough.

Her reaction is enough to show that she cares about him.

It was just this concern that made Qin Zheng not care about telling Xie Jinhua his biggest secret.

He said that he would not lie to her.

do as promised.

"What are you doing!"

Huang's voice came from the door coldly.

"Mother, look, I said that the second sister had an affair with the boy next to her, so close, when the two of them were at the racecourse, they even dismissed the guards and stayed alone for a while, I don't know what they did! If If it is known that Second Sister is involved with a servant, our Xie family will lose all face."

Xie Jinyao looked at Xie Jinhua with deep resentment in his eyes.

Her reputation was ruined the moment the emperor issued an order to reprimand her, so how could Xie Jinhua be spared!
"Come on, tie that kid up for me!"

Huang ordered directly.
