Escape from the desert with aura: I am the only native in the whole family

Chapter 554 Portrait of a Child

"Ahem, um!" Xue Zhen nodded slightly.

"She often runs to the General's Mansion diligently. Can you hide from the first day of the junior high school or the fifteenth day?"

Meng Jiu'er didn't say much. Tonight, the wind was blowing and she turned around and went back to the study to read the books.

Xue Zhen laughed so helplessly for the first time, sighed and sat on the tea table opposite Ah Jiu and cooked tea by himself:

"It's useless for me to see her. I can't answer the questions she wants."

Ah Jiu looked at Xue Zhen wonderingly: "What do you want to ask her?"

"It's nothing but the child's problem." Xue Zhen rolled up his sleeves and poured a cup of tea from the teapot, enjoying it comfortably.

"But since she is looking for you, then of course you know about it." Ah Jiu withdrew her gaze and sketched on the ledger.

"That's not necessarily the case." Xue Zhen briefly recounted the events of that year:

"Because of the death of the first emperor, the king was sentenced to death one day, and I ran away. I couldn't stay there and wait for death. Ning girl took the child and fled to somewhere. In the following years, I never saw Chang. Concubine, let alone her child, how do I know where it is."

Ah Jiu gave Xue Zhen a blank look: "Then why don't you tell her directly?"

Xue Zhen didn't speak, which made Ah Jiu suspicious: "You wouldn't have done anything wrong to her to be afraid of seeing her."

"No, absolutely not." Xue Zhen's reaction was obviously different from his usual calmness.

Ah Jiu stared at him for a long time: "Don't say it? Don't say it? What are you doing here? You obviously want to say it, but you just can't say it."

Xue Zhen sighed helplessly:
"It's not that I can't say it. In fact, it's just because I personally sent Miss Ning the Resurrection Pill the day before she committed suicide. I was entrusted by her, saying that she hoped to take good care of her child with Ning girl after she died. , she helped me escape from the palace, but as soon as I left the capital, I met Jin Yiwei...

I got separated from Miss Ning, and I found Miss Ning about five years later. At that time, she had married Master Gao and became a concubine. She said that Concubine Chang's son was born with a mental disability, and she needed money to have The opportunity to treat the child was lost. "

It turned out to be like this, Ah Jiu put down the brush in his hand suspiciously:

"It's really hard to find a mentally handicapped person if he gets lost."

"Well." Xue Zhen nodded slightly and continued: "Ning girl said that it might be because Concubine Chang ate something she shouldn't eat when she was pregnant. When she was born, she had already found an excuse to put her under house arrest, and the food she ate was sent to the Ministry of Internal Affairs by the emperor."

"You mean, when Concubine Chang was pregnant, the emperor planned to kill the weeds?" Ah Jiu's heart sank when he heard this. Then the emperor was so vicious and cruel, and the tiger's poison would not eat its children.

Xue Zhen sighed: "Master, what do you think I will say if I see Concubine Chang? If it is said that I got lost because of my lack of intelligence, she will naturally think it is impossible. I am afraid that she will not know that the emperor is going to kill her child until she dies. Bringing up the past will only add to the sadness, so why bother."

When Xue Zhen said this, Ah Jiu nodded silently:
"Actually, I also admire Concubine Chang. She has gone through such a big turmoil, but she can bear it and be independent. It's not easy."

Anyway, even if Ah Jiu asked herself, she couldn't bear the fact that her mother's family was exterminated.

"Why don't you make up a lie?" Ah Jiu felt that she couldn't hide for a lifetime, and they were all living in Menghua City right now, so they might run into each other someday.

"How to make it up? I also ask Master to give me some pointers." Xue Zhen has achieved the ultimate in humility this time.

Ah Jiusi thought and racked her brains, but she couldn't think of a good way. If she didn't mention the problem of mental retardation, then she would pester herself to help her find a child.

But where can Ah Jiu find it?

Seeing that the little master was also the male lead, Xue Zhen added another sentence: "Ning girl told me that all the doctors said that the child would not live to be eight years old."

"Ah?" When Ah Jiu heard this, it became even more difficult: "Speaking of which, he has been dead for more than ten years at this time, so there is no way to find him, hey, that's right."

Ah Jiu suddenly remembered something, and rummaged through the bookshelves back and forth.

Suddenly remembering that Alan's notes had been buried by her, she dug them out overnight with a shovel, found the booklet from the wooden box full of mud, turned to the last page, and pulled out a portrait from it.

"Do you think it is this child?" Ah Jiu handed the portrait to Xue Zhen.
