Chapter 238 Passed away

When Xiaodong got the news, Zhao Zhi had already been buried.

Xiaodong felt sad for not seeing her for the last time.

Qin Lie comforted her: "I met her for you, and the affairs behind her have been taken care of."

"Then, what about the child?"

"They are all entrusted to reliable families." Qin Lie said, "I didn't stay in the capital. One of the two families was named Chen and the other was named Meng, and the children would follow the family's surname. No one would know their backgrounds, so as to save the future Get involved again."

"Did she... say nothing?"

Qin Lie smiled: "She just doesn't care about the child, she has entrusted her child again and again, I almost swore to her, as long as we have a bite to eat, her son and nephew will never be hungry."

The circles of Xiaodong's eyes were red, and the hand holding the teacup did not move for a long time, and the eyes were not sure whether they were suffocated by the heat and foggy.

In fact, Zhao Zhi said more than that, but Qin Lie kept everything from it.

Zhao Zhi was so ill that only a handful of bones were left. I don't know if it was a flashback, but in the end he talked a lot, rambling on.Maybe she was already confused at that time, and couldn't tell who the person in front of her was.

Maybe she held it back for too long, and if she didn't say a lot of words, it would be uncomfortable to bring them to the ground.

"I have envied you all my life..." Zhao Zhi looked blankly at the top of the tent, Qin Lie thought, what is there to envy about him?But if he continued to listen, he knew that Zhao Zhi had lost his mind.

"You have a good father, a good brother, and you never have to worry about anything. When you get married, you are married so well..."

Qin Lie understood that Zhao Zhi was talking about Xiaodong.

"Prince An is not a good man and a faithful woman. Back then...if he hadn't killed the Prince Yuan, who was born by Empress Chen, the emperor would not be able to inherit the throne now." Zhao Zhi's voice was low, and Qin Lie felt a slight chill on his body.Maybe it's the coldness in the room, like a snake crawling across its back.

He asked softly, "How do you know?"

The corners of Zhao Zhi's mouth curved slightly, but his expression didn't look like a smile, it was very weird: "There is no impenetrable wall in the world... Back then... my father almost touched the edge of the throne... How old was your father that year? Five years old? Six years old? Empress Chen was very guarded, but Prince Yuan liked to bully Prince An himself, and always pestered him. He would snatch anything from Prince An. One bite would be snatched from his mouth, who would have thought that he would die like this? Such a vicious scheme, such a spicy method. I am afraid that you are the only one in the world who thinks he is a good father and a good person... "

Zhao Zhi coughed, like a broken caravan that was about to fall apart, and every part of her body was shaking.

After panting for a while, she regained her strength and said, "The emperor and your father seem to be brothers and sisters, but they have divorced a long time ago. Otherwise, he would not be able to go anywhere in the capital all these years... someone You said yes, it was all because of your mother's beauty, but in fact...the emperor has always been afraid of him..."

"... That year in Shangyuan, I knew something would happen. But I didn't know that the assassin was coming for you... I didn't dare to see you for a long time afterwards... Don't blame me, really, don't blame me... ..."

After a while, she gritted her teeth again: "You have no conscience... You said you were good to me all your life, but when those women were in trouble with me, where did you go? Your mother tortured me, why did you keep silent?" ? You don't want me, you don't want a son..."

This... is talking about Zhang Manting, right?

Zhao Zhi's face was full of resentment, her eyes looked at the void, as if Zhang Manting was standing in front of her.

"You put on flower makeup for me, and inserted hairpins for me...have you forgotten all of these..."

She spoke incoherently, quarreled for a few words, became gentle again, and then scolded sharply.

"I'm about to die...you don't come to see me, you don't come to see your son..."

Qin Lie came out of the room, Zhao Zhi was crying his son's name, and seemed to be awake again.

The doctor said that she couldn't make it through the night.

Sure enough, before dawn, Zhao Zhi died.She woke up from time to time throughout the night, and her throat was rattling for the last time, and she was already speechless.

Qin Lie only felt a long sigh of relief, as if a big stone had been removed from his heart, he was relieved.

The morning light shimmered, reflecting a cool white on the wall.

Zhao Zhi was not as simple as she had shown in the past. She might not have been unaware of King Jing's rebellion.

Anyway, it's all over.The only boy left in King Jing's lineage is the immature child, and he will not know his life experience in the future.To be able to live a solid life, support the family, and carry on the family line.The same is true for Zhao Zhi's child, the family who raised him did not know the origin of the child.

The wet nurse carried Ah Da into the house, and Xiao Dong hurriedly took the child.

Ah Da was full of milk and was not sleepy for a while. He opened his eyes and looked at Xiao Dong with a curious expression. Qin Lie reached out and poked his face: "This kid, why are you so lewd?"

"Nonsense, he is older and knows what sex is."

"It has nothing to do with age."

Look at this beautiful boy, in his mother's arms, he can't close his mouth from smiling, his eyes are big and small with joy.

Xiaodong sang softly to coax him, Ada knew how to enjoy it, squinted her eyes and smiled to listen, Xiaodong sang "Give flowers to my sister to wear..." Looking down, little Ada had already fallen asleep.The hands were still raised next to the cheeks, and the fleshy face and fleshy hands were crystal and rounded by the candlelight, looking like stewed puff pastry, which made people want to take a bite.

Xiaodong carefully put him on the bed and covered him with a thin quilt. He was so loving and considerate that Qin Lie's eyes glowed red and he gritted his teeth.

He Dehe Neng, this stinky boy, squeezed his position in this room so much that there is not a single point left...

Back then, whether it was Xiaodong or the Hu family, it was my uncle who kept his mouth shut. How happy he was alone.It's good now, the house is full of people, but what about the young master, no one remembers his warmth and sweetness.

But Ah Da was already asleep, and Qin Lie finally got his wish and hugged his wife in his arms.

There is a sweet milky smell on Xiaodong's body, which is different from the previous one.

In the past, Xiaodong didn't like incense, but the smell of fragrant flowers and herbs used in laundry has always remained on the clothes. Even after washing and drying, the fragrance is still there.The smell is light and clear, and you can't smell it if you smell it deliberately. When you inadvertently, the scent is like a veil, passing gently from the nose.

Xiaodong was also tired, squinting his eyes to rest his mind.Her face was rounded by childbirth without looking bloated.The skin is still white and smooth, and the hair is loose on the shoulders and on the pillow, soft and light.

"Xiaodong."

"Ok?"

He asked in a low voice, "Shall we have another daughter?"

Xiaodong didn't open his eyes, and said with a smile, "Bah."
