Rebirth of the ghost concubine of the confused country

Chapter 87

Thinking of this, Zhu Zixin couldn't help feeling a little apprehensive, and at the same time secretly made a decision in his heart that he had to eat more when he went back, to keep his body strong, and to practice martial arts hard to defend himself.

"Fortunately, Zixin is fine, let's go back quickly."

Nangong Xi looked around and said to Zhu Zixin.

After finishing speaking, he continued: "It's a bit strange here, like an abandoned village. How could there be such a place around the capital? Why are there no villagers here? Could something have happened?"

Zhu Ziyi also said: "It's a little strange, otherwise, the subordinates will bring someone to check it another day?"

"okay."

Nangong Xi nodded and said, "Let's go quickly."

"Ah."

Zhu Ziyi agreed, and the two walked out of the village protecting Zhu Zixin.

Zhu Zixin took a look at the village while walking. The village looked very big, but it was empty. Some unknown birds would fly up when passing by. It's short.It's really weird.

It was almost midnight when the three of them arrived outside the gate of the Hou's Mansion. The lights in the Hou's Mansion were brightly lit. It seemed that the whole family was waiting for Zhu Zixin to come back.

"Zixin, hurry up, put on your clothes." The prince suddenly realized something and said hastily.

At this time, Zhu Zixin also understood in his heart that the second aunt, mother and daughter might have been impatiently waiting for a long time, and wanted to see how miserable he would be after being insulted by King Ji.I'm afraid they will be disappointed this time.

Putting on the prince's clothes neatly, Zhu Zixin stood up straight, and walked into the Hou's mansion with his head held high.

"Zixin, you go in first, we'll come back later."

Behind him, the prince's voice came again.Zhu Zixin turned her head and nodded, she already knew what to do.

Pushing open the door, one could see that the courtyard was full of people, including Zhu Jing, Second Aunt, Zhu Zichan and a group of servants.

As soon as he entered the door, he heard a voice: "Xin'er, why did you go so late? Did King Ji..."

Zhu Jing's voice didn't continue at the end, but anyone could hear the meaning.

"Father, my daughter is fine, King Ji just invited her to have a drink or two."

Zhu Zixin smiled slightly.

"Yo, drink? King Ji is really in a good mood. Just after attending the queen mother's birthday banquet, he invited you to drink again? Besides, his mother and concubine were thrown into the cold palace. This King Ji is really heartless." , are you still in the mood to drink?"

This was Second Aunt's voice, with a sour taste and gloating mood.

"I don't know about this Zixin. The second aunt is very considerate of the king of Ji. The mother and concubine of the king of Ji are not someone else's. Why are others so anxious? Whether he drinks or not is not up to you or me." Do you think so, Second Aunt?"

Zhu Zixin replied unceremoniously.

"Zhu Zixin, at this point, you still have to be arrogant!"

The second aunt was so sarcastic by Zixin, she said angrily.

Then, she looked at Zhu Jing again and said, "My lord, I've heard people say that the servants have heard that the King of Ji is so angry that the crown prince took Zixin away today. He wants to destroy the innocence of the eldest lady. Now, now I'm afraid The eldest lady is already innocent. If this is the case, why would His Royal Highness want her? According to the wishes of the servants, we should be more cautious and let the servants check it out. We must not listen to the words of the eldest lady. If there is trouble in the future, we will not Good to explain!"

When Second Aunt said this, her face turned pale, she looked at Zhu Zixin, and said in her heart, have I exposed the lie?Wait a while and find out that you are no longer a virgin. Let me see how you still have the face to live.

"Who are you going to explain to?"

At this time, Nangong Xi suddenly walked in and asked.

"Prince!"

Seeing Nangong Xi, Second Aunt was stunned for a moment, and after a while she hastily knelt down and said: "My servant Ge Lirong has seen the prince."

"Meet Your Royal Highness."

Zhu Jing also bowed down.

"Get up."

Nangongxi responded lightly, glanced at everyone, and said with a smile on the corner of her lips: "It's so late, I'm still waiting here, it seems that Lord Hou is still very eager to love his daughter! I'm so sorry Just now, when King Ji invited Missy to have a drink, he also invited the two of us by the way, so after drinking, I sent Missy off by the way, and since I’m all right, I’m going back.”

After speaking, he walked up to Zhu Zixin again, as if he was talking to her, but obviously speaking to someone else.

"Zixin, go back to sleep. If you look listless when my mother and I give the dowry tomorrow, I will punish you!"

His appearance was too intimate, which made Zhu Zixin very uncomfortable, at first he wanted to put a certain distance away from him, but when he thought that everyone was watching, he held back, nodded and said: "Got it. "

"Okay, then I will leave first, see you tomorrow."

Nangongxi said again, turned her head, and said to Zhu Jing, "See you, Lord Hou."

After speaking, he turned and left.Zhu Jing and Zhu Ziyi sent him to the door before returning.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhu Jing glanced at Second Aunt and snorted coldly, "What a fuss! Why don't you go to sleep?"

After speaking, he looked at Zhu Zixin again and said, "Go back and rest."

Zhu Zixin was blessed, turned around and left.

At this time, the second aunt
A pair of eyes looked at Zhu Zichan who was following behind him, full of doubts.

Did it miss?Zhu Zichan was also very annoyed, I said doubtfully in my heart.

Thinking of this, she looked up at Second Aunt and said, "It stands to reason that according to King Ji's hand, he should not miss it!"

"Hmph, that King Ji is just a fool, a worthless useless man! He can't handle such things well, no wonder he can't even protect his own mother."

The second aunt grumbled fiercely, turned around and went back to Guihuayuan.

Zhu Zichan paused at the same spot for a long while, puzzled, why he missed after so long, and also met the prince and Zhu Ziyi, could it be that they saved Zhu Zixin?

Thinking of this, Zhu Zichan seemed to understand, nodded, and said bitterly: "You are lucky!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and headed towards Guihua Garden.

After entering the courtyard gate, I saw my second aunt taking a hoe, digging here and there in the yard, I don't know what she was doing.

"Mom, it's so late, you still haven't slept, what are you doing?"

Zhu Zichan asked curiously.

"Hmph, what are you doing? Do you still need to ask? Your father is going to marry a new wife. How long can we live in Guihuayuan? Don't hurry up and find out those jewels. If the new lady finds out, we will be at a loss." What's more, if we move out by then, it will be difficult to get in here, how can we find those things? Where will you and Qi'er's dowry come from?"

The second aunt mumbled a lot.

"Mom! Let me help you find it together."

Zhu Zichan also felt reasonable when he heard the words, so he also took a stick and started beating in the yard. The two mother and daughter tossed and tossed all night, but found nothing, so they had to go back to sleep.

The two mothers and daughters in Guihuayuan stayed up all night, but Zhu Zixin slept soundly all night. Although she was a little frightened last night, fortunately, she was out of danger.Zhu Zixin also came through the hail of bullets, and his psychological quality is also excellent, so when he slept until the next morning, he was full of energy again.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw that Xiaocui was already neatly dressed, standing in her room, looking at her with concern.

As Zhu Zixin came back late last night, when she returned to Dongli Garden, she saw Xiao Cui falling asleep leaning on the door frame with tears still on her face.Zhu Zixin was very distressed. It seemed that she was just sitting there waiting because she was worried about her own safety, but it was probably because she was too tired that she fell asleep.

Zhu Zixin couldn't bear to disturb her, so he found a servant to carry her to the bed in the room, and went back to his room to rest.Therefore, it is understandable for Xiao Cui to look at her like this now.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Xiao Cui."

The corners of Zhu Zixin's lips curled up slightly, and he asked.

"Miss, are you alright?"

Xiao Cui said the first sentence.

"It's okay! But it's also thanks to you for telling the eldest brother and the prince, otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous."

Zhu Zixin said.

"Really? Then King Ji really wants to cheat on you?"

Although Xiaocui was prepared in her heart, she was still taken aback by Zhu Zixin's words, and said in surprise.

"Well, I didn't expect him to be so despicable."

Zhu Zixin said while getting off the bed, and then said, "It's better to avoid him in the future."

"Yes, miss, you have offended King Ji this time, and this servant feels that he never replays you, so you should be careful in the future."

Xiao Cui also said.

"Well, I see."

Zhu Zixin nodded and sat in front of the vanity mirror.Xiaocui picked up the comb and combed Zhu Zixin's hair.

At this time, there was a sudden noise outside, and a young servant quickly stood at the door and reported: "The eldest lady and the empress are here, and the master ordered you to go quickly to greet her."

"understood."

Zhu Zixin hurriedly responded, and then said to Xiaocui: "Just do it casually, I'm late, I'm afraid the empress will blame me."

Saying that, he stood up, took a handkerchief and tied up his hair, put on a moon-white dress and ran out.

"Miss, miss, it seems inappropriate for you to go to see the queen like this?"

Xiao Cui followed behind her and said anxiously.

"It's okay! The people over there are all dressed like this."

Zhu Zixin said while running, not paying much attention to his current image at all.

"Miss, this is too casual!"

Xiaocui pursed her lips and said, but seeing that Zhu Zixin had no intention of stopping at all, she had no choice but to follow behind her.

As he spoke, the queen's chariot had already arrived at the gate of the waiting mansion, and Nan Gongxi also rode behind the chariot on a tall horse.

Zhu Jing and his family had been waiting at the door to greet them. When Zhu Zixin arrived, he just saw the queen get off the chariot.

"Zhu Jing and his family pay respects to the Empress Empress and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

As Zhu Jing spoke, he knelt down and bowed down.

With a smile on her face, the queen glanced at everyone and said, "Everyone, get up."

"Thank you Empress Empress, thank you Your Highness the Prince."

Standing up, Zhu Zixin looked in the direction of Nan Gongxi, only to find that he was also looking at himself. He was different from the past today. He was wearing the official mansion embroidered with octopython that a prince should wear. There is a sense of vitality, which is more youthful and warm than the black dress.
