The lucky star of rebirth

Chapter 135 Entering the Palace
Cheng Huaijin sat up from the bed sweating profusely, and took several deep breaths before suppressing the panic in her heart.

He looked out of the window, a bright moon was shining, and dry branches stretched out of the window, and the shadows reflected seemed to be ghost hands, which made people feel chills when they saw it.

In addition, it was about midnight, the charcoal fire in the stove had been extinguished long ago, and the room became cold for no reason, Cheng Huaijin felt more and more cold outside and hot inside, and there was always something wrong with his body.

I got up and drank several sips of water, trying to sleep again, but couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

Helpless, Cheng Huaijin had no choice but to sit up in his clothes and write a few strokes, but in the end his heart was not calm, and the writing was crooked and ugly.

He simply dropped the pen, changed into a neat black suit and pushed the door out, and within a few leaps he was gone.

Not a quarter of an hour later, Cheng Huaijin appeared outside Ji Songxian's boudoir. He stood under the eaves for a long time, thinking that Ji Songxian was sleeping behind a wall, and his heart became more at ease. It was only after dawn that Cheng Huaijin left.

Duke Cheng's Mansion
Cheng Guogong has been in a bad mood since he went out and came back. At noon the next day, he went to the old Cheng Guogong's house, entered the door and said: "Since that child doesn't know how to praise, we didn't raise him, and he is not close to us. , Father still told him to recognize his ancestors and return to his clan."

Speaking of this, Cheng Guogong lowered his face: "If he comes back, what will Ping An do? He is an upright son, but Ping An is a step-son. In the future, whether it is family wealth or title in this mansion, will it be his? What is Ping An? Can't fall."

"Nonsense." Old Duke Cheng was a little annoyed: "Don't say anything if you don't want him. How can the blood of our old married family just say no to it? No matter how safe it is, it can only be a stepson. What about Huai Jinbi?"

"Father." Cheng Guogong somewhat disagreed.

As soon as the old Cheng Guogong raised his hand, he told the rest of the servants to go down, leaving only Cheng Guogong, and called to come closer and said carefully: "It turns out that Mrs. Feng gave Pingan a pair of blueprints before leaving, and it was actually left by our ancestors. The treasure map that came down."

Speaking of this, the old Duke Cheng lowered his voice again: "You probably don't know the origin of our family. Our family was famous in the previous dynasty. Our ancestors fought with the founding king in the previous dynasty. How many good things are gone, and when the country is stable, the ancestors feared that their children and grandchildren would not be able to regress in the future, so they divided the acquired wealth into two, leaving half for their children and grandchildren, and hiding the other half specially, and painted The blueprints can be used to rebuild the family business when the descendants fall down in the future."

"Could it be, could it be that in the previous dynasty, the married family of the wealthy side was actually in the same line as us?"

Cheng Guogong was shocked and asked quickly.

Old Cheng Guogong nodded: "This is the secret of the ancestors, and I will only tell you about it."

Cheng Guogong nodded solemnly: "Father, don't worry, I won't tell anyone else."

"When the ancestor hid the treasure back then, he invited a sorcerer, and the sorcerer set up a secret method. No one except the blood of the married family can open the treasure, and the blood of the direct relatives is also different. It must be that there is a plan in mind, and there is a great ability to do it. The ancestors were also afraid that the descendants of Yonglu would not only be unable to enter the treasure, but would cause disasters instead, and it would be better to live in poverty."

The old Cheng Guogong said for a while and then said: "Just think about how many treasures our ancestors hid back then. If we get it, we won't worry about getting married or not prospering."

"Then quickly ask Ping An to fetch it." Cheng Guogong immediately urged with joy when he heard that.

Old Duke Cheng lowered his face: "Nonsense again, where is Ping'an's direct bloodline, how do you ask him to get it?"

Cheng Guogong's enthusiasm seemed to be extinguished by cold water, but he was speechless. Although Cheng Ping'an was also his flesh and blood, he was really not a son of a concubine. Shi Zi, with such a background, how could he find treasures.

"That's why I want to recognize Huai Jin with all my heart. That child is a direct bloodline of our family, and he is also capable. It can't be said that the prosperity of the family depends on him. Compared with the future of the family, your sons and daughters are more affectionate." It’s nothing.” The old Cheng Guogong sighed, and warned Cheng Guogong earnestly: “Besides, I look at it coldly, your daughter-in-law is getting worse and worse now, relying on safety as the only flesh and blood of our family, she is getting worse and worse. Make a show of it, if there is no vigilance, I am afraid that she will cause trouble."

The more Cheng Guogong thought about it, the more he felt that what the old Cheng Guogong said was reasonable, and the Kuang Zhou family was indeed as excited as the old Cheng Guogong said. He was very strict, and he didn't even let him look at the girls with slightly flat heads and straight faces, but Cheng Ping'an was full of beautiful concubines, which made him even more upset.

The old Cheng Guogong waved his hand when he saw that he had almost said something: "You go and think about it, how important is the prosperity of the family and your selfishness."

Cheng Guogong was speechless for half a day before leaving.

Not to mention what Cheng Guogong thinks, just say that when Ji Songxian woke up this day, he only felt something was different, but he couldn't tell.

After washing up, I went out of the house, unexpectedly picked up a bead on the porch.

She did know the beads, they were some tiny beads that she once made for Cheng Huaijin on a purse, although they were tiny beads, but the color of these beads was very positive, and they were pure black, so they couldn't be easily obtained. She was also lucky for a while, and somehow got some, remembering that Cheng Huaijin usually likes black, calm and solemn, so when she was making a purse, she stringed beads for him and embroidered very elegant patterns.

Today, I don't want to pick up a bead on the porch, Ji Songxian held the bead in a daze for a long time, she understood the reason after thinking about it for a while, thinking of Cheng Huaijin standing outside her window in such a cold day and night, unexpectedly There was a feeling of wind and dew standing all night, and that infatuation made her crazy for a while.

But at this moment, his son walked around Liang Xing and said with a smile: "Miss, pack up quickly, just now the palace delivered an order, and the queen asked the girl to enter the palace to see her."

Only then did Ji Songxian come back to his senses, he quickly put the beads into his purse, and asked with a smile, "When did the queen send the decree? Why did you call me?"

"Which nameplate is the slave, how do you know what the queen means." Zhou Liang smiled and answered: "Miss, hurry up and tidy up."

Ji Songxian had no choice but to go back to the house and change into bright clothes, combed his hair again, wore a golden phoenix with pendant beads, and two small hairpins on his temples. After wearing a new one, Ji Songxian went to the front After seeing the eunuch who came to summon him, after some narration, he got into the palace in a sedan chair at the meeting.

She thought about it many times along the way, but she couldn't figure out what the queen told her to do.

Ji Songxian is not familiar with the empress, but he met him briefly when he was appointed princess, but he didn't look at it carefully, he only remembered that the empress was extremely dignified, with good-looking eyebrows and eyes, but I can't remember anything else.

She made some guesses, and when she entered the Kunning Palace and paid her respects to the queen, she saw the queen helping her up in person: "Get up quickly, I have not seen you since the day you canonized me, and I have not seen you for so long." What about you, firstly, it is inconvenient for me to leave the palace, and secondly, the queen mother has been ill all the time, and I am busy preparing for Princess Jinyang's wedding, so I have no time to announce you to the palace."

"How many things do you do in a day, how can you have time to see us." Ji Songxian replied with a smile.

The queen also smiled: "Only now that Princess Jinyang is getting married, I thought you would get married in a few days. You are the princess conferred by His Majesty, and you are also a serious royal sister. As a sister-in-law, I can't favor one over the other. I gave Jinyang a dowry, so how could I do without you? No, I specially asked you to come in to have a look at the dowry list. Except for those items, I also added some with you, you It looks lovely, if there is anything that is not suitable, or if Ji Xiang has prepared for you more seriously, please tell me, so that you don't have any identity."

The queen's words were sharp, with a smile in her words, and she was very amiable. Ji Songxian also relaxed for a while, and said with a smile: "It's my honor that the queen's sister-in-law remembers me. How can I be picky? Frivolous."

"What is frivolous and not frivolous." There was a bit of joy in the queen's eyes, and she said with a smile: "So you should be more lively when you are young, and you don't need to hide what you have to say."

For a while, it was said that the queen really forced Ji Songxian to see the dowry list.

Ji Songxian didn't expect that the queen would act like this, and thought that there is no girl who would go to see her dowry list like this, but she seemed to want to get married immediately, her face turned red in embarrassment, and she bowed her head for a while in shame.

It's just that the queen insisted on urging her, so Ji Songxian could only cheer up and watch.

After looking at it for a while, Ji Songxian got up and said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, this dowry is very good, there is no need to change it."

The queen couldn't help being happy when she heard that: "It's hard for you to do this, if that's the case, I will do it accordingly."

While talking, the queen found an excuse for the servants to pay, and there were only two people in the room, so she pulled Ji Songxian to sit down and said softly: "Speaking of it, although your dowry is not as good as Princess Jinyang, it is much better than Princess Gaoyang." The dowry of this one is more generous, because Your Majesty has met Mrs. Li, and heard that your mother has helped Mrs. Li, and he is grateful for the friendship of your family, so he ordered me to prepare it."

Panicked, Ji Songxian hurriedly got up and worshiped: "My mother deserves it, how can I afford it."

"If you say you can afford it, you can afford it." The queen smiled and Raj Songxian sat down: "What is Mrs. Li's identity? She is His Majesty's biological mother. Your family has such a great kindness to her, and it is a kindness to His Majesty." How can Your Majesty forget it, but Madam Li's identity cannot be revealed now, so I can only wrong her and your mother, and when His Majesty recognizes your mother in a dignified manner in the future, I will definitely thank your mother."

"I shouldn't, I shouldn't." Ji Songxian quickly refused: "My mother never thought of repaying anything, but when she saw Mrs. Li was really pitiful, she helped her once, and she wanted to save someone's life. Merit, where is..."

"Even so, Madam Li was indeed saved." The Queen said with a serious face on her face: "Now I know His Majesty and his wife, Madam Li is His Majesty's mother and my mother, and I only miss you Home is doing well."

Ji Songxian saw that she was sincere, and knew that what she said was sincere, so he didn't refuse any more, just sat down and chatted with the queen for a while, the queen asked what she was doing at home, and finally said: " Why hasn't there been a new story in your book yet? I can't wait."
