Funing Hall

Since Zhao Zongning knew about this, Zhao Cong immediately knew about it.

Knowing this, how can you make Duke Yan feel embarrassed?

Zhao Cong immediately ordered people to invite Duke Yan and his family to visit the Queen Mother Sun in the palace more, saying that the Queen Mother was ill and missed her family.When Fu Lu and others went out of the palace, they brought many people and gifts with them.How many people are staring at Duke Yan's mansion right now?I saw with my own eyes the high officials around His Majesty bringing gifts, and their attitude was very respectful.

Before leaving, Fu Lu turned around and saluted frequently, reassuring the Duke of Yan, and even said that this matter had nothing to do with the Queen Mother.

Even if he is as calm as Sun Boxun, he can't help getting angry. He really underestimated Zhao Cong in the past!

When he found out that Zhao Zongning sent someone to send a letter into the palace yesterday, he knew that it was the princess who was behind the scenes again.But Zhao Zongning's princess mansion has iron walls and copper walls, what can they do?

Those who stared closely at the Duke of Yan's mansion felt that the Duke of Yan's mansion was so pretentious that they wanted the high officials in front of His Majesty to come out and apologize in person!

Everyone in the world is like this, why is the Duke of Yan's dominance not only rely on the Queen Mother in the palace?Some people don't like them.Now that they are in trouble, it wasn't when His Majesty was still weak that the Empress Dowager fell down!Everyone still can't get enough?Xiao Tang took the lead again, the reputation of Duke Yan's mansion is getting worse and worse.

Sun Xiaoyu's little idea was put forward, but before it could be put into practice, and before a small spark appeared in the future, it was extinguished like this.

Moreover, Sun Boxun and others had to honestly go to the palace to visit the Queen Mother Sun.

Before visiting, one had to kowtow to His Majesty outside Funing Hall.

Your Majesty is sick, so it is inconvenient to see people.

Zhao Cong was thinking about how to get rid of the Duke of Yan's title. After thinking about it, he felt that Queen Mother Sun's method was the best.Treating his own body with his own way, he was about to ask Xiao Tang to find someone to pour dirty water on their house, but unexpectedly, the Duke of Yan's house turned his hand.

They poured dirty water on themselves.

But this is the situation that Zhao Cong least wants to see.

This has to go back to the fact that the Duke of Yan went to the palace to see the Queen Mother every day.

Coincidentally, after Zhao Cong fell into the water that day, it has been raining intermittently in Beijing, and the weather is getting colder and colder.Although the Empress Dowager Sun had woken up, she was still in poor health, and she was still lying on the bed most of the time.Zhao Cong didn't bother to act anymore at this time, he also needed to take care of his body quickly so that he could catch up with the pro-government, so he only made people go to Baoci Hall to see her occasionally, but he himself had never been there.

It was another rainy day, Rantao was ordered to take two young maids to Baoci Hall to visit the Empress Dowager, who was sleeping.

Sun Xiaoyu was there all the time, seeing her coming, they bowed to each other.Rantao entered the inner room, only to find that there was a man in the inner room!

She immediately bowed her head.

"This is my brother." Sun Xiaoyu said.

Rantao saluted and said hello, but he thought to himself, this Duke of Yan's mansion really doesn't know what it is!The Palace of Baoci is getting worse and worse. Since Qingming is willing to take the blame, what he committed is a capital crime.She was executed a few days ago, but His Majesty thought of her loyalty and rewarded her with a glass of poisoned wine, and died within a few breaths, a happy death.After her death, her body was sent back to her home for burial, and her family was not punished, which is already very preferential treatment.

Now that Qingming is gone, Aunt Wang is in charge of everything in Baoci Hall, and it has been messed up in just a few days.Such a big man even let him into Queen Mother Sun's inner room!Although one is an aunt and the other is a nephew, this is too careless.

When Sun Zhuqing saw Rantao approaching, he immediately stood up.

It's not in vain that he comes into the palace every day, and finally he meets him!

Sun Xiaoyu has always been domineering, but now she is making progress, knowing that she has to save face, and she has been taught by her stern aunt, and she has gradually developed into a little lady with a bit of a heart.When she saw her brother's expression, what else did she not understand?She hated Zhao Cong and Ran Tao in her heart, but she knew that she was powerless to fight against them.

Even their Duke of Yan's mansion is not as good as before, stuck in place, unable to move.

Looking at her brother's attitude now, she had another idea in her mind.

Their Duke of Yan's mansion is not as good as before, but the queen mother's aunt is still the queen mother!

After Rantao left, Sun Zhuqing hurriedly sent him outside the hall, Rantao was at a loss, but he couldn't think of anything else.

When she entered the palace since she was a child, she learned the rules and followed well-behaved people, and there was a lot of difference between her and Sun Zhuqing in terms of status and status.She only thinks of this Dalangjun as a simple and honest person, which is different from the rest of the Sun family.Their Majesty wanted to be in charge, and he had to save face, so she smiled before turning around and leaving.

Sun Zhuqing leaned on the door, watching her far away.

He went back to the hall sullenly. Sun Xiaoyu was eating almond candy. Seeing him like this, he said with disdain, "All the eyeballs have followed me!"

"Sister! You know?!"

"Who can't see it? Look at your worthless appearance!"

Sun Zhuqing immediately stepped forward and sat down beside her: "My dear sister, how can there be such a good-looking person?"

In fact, Rantao is not born with stunning beauty, but there is often such a thing as eye predestination in this world.

"Hmph, so what if you like it? She is the female officer in front of His Majesty!"

Sun Zhuqing immediately became wilted again, and said in a muffled voice: "Then what should I do, how can I marry His Majesty's female official?"

Sun Xiaoyu raised her eyebrows: "Marry?!"

"Yeah, the first time I saw her, I wanted to marry her!"

Sun Xiaoyu was almost fainted by his anger, even though Rantao was His Majesty's female official, she was only a maid of honor, a few years older than him!He is the dignified son of Duke Yan's mansion, but he wants to marry a maid?He will inherit the title in the future!If such a woman is accepted as a concubine, it is considered her family's ancestors' merit!Regardless of whether this matter can be done or not, just hearing it makes me very angry.

She thought of herself again, the last time she was in the palace because of Wei Junwang's affairs, and this time because of what the little eunuch said when she was stopped at the city gate.I'm afraid no one will ask to marry her, she is a noble lady of the Duke's Mansion, but she is not as good as a court lady!

She wanted to be sarcastic.

Sun Zhuqing asked again: "Good sister, you are smarter than me, what do you think I can marry her?"

Sun Xiaoyu thought for a while and said with a smile: "Actually, if you really want to marry her, it's not impossible. My sister has a way."

"How to say?!" Sun Zhuqing's eyes lit up immediately.

"It is said that there are many pigeons in Funing Hall, you..." Sun Xiaoyu whispered in his ear, her voice became smaller and smaller, but Sun Zhuqing's eyes became brighter and brighter.

At night, Ran Tao inspected Funing Hall as usual, and was about to go back to her room, but saw Ji Li wearing a coir raincoat and going out, she stopped and asked, "Aren't you keeping watch today?"

Ji Li turned to look at her, and immediately said: "Sister Rantao, there are still pigeons that haven't come back, I'll go out and look for them."

"How many short?"

"It's only three or four." Counting the top, Geely has to count carefully to know.

"I'll look for it, you go and continue the vigil."

Ji Li shook her head: "It's raining heavily and cold outside, sister, don't go, I'll do it."

Ran Tao smiled: "You idiot, go back, it's important to guard Mr. Xiaolang, I'll go."

Rantao patrolled Funing Hall every night, she would only close the hall door when she needed to rest and keep watch at night.

The night vigil was indeed a major event, Ji Li thought for a while, but was urged by Ran Tao again and again, so he had to go back to the side hall.

Ran Tao held up an umbrella and went out to find pigeons.It was raining outside, and there were guards walking by on the palace road.

The guard saw her and asked, "Why is Sister Rantao still out so late?"

Rantao explained the reason.

They said: "It will be dark if you go further in, why don't you carry a lamp?"

"In a hurry, I forgot."

"Shall we go with my sister?"

"Go and inspect yourself. I'm fine. I come here often. If you find me, go back!"

The guards did have to do errands, and there was a fixed number of places to visit in each shift.They spoke to her a few more words, and parted from her in two directions.

Rantao walked to Kunning Hall, and suddenly heard pigeons calling in the hall, she raised her hand and opened the door, but someone inside suddenly held her hand.Rantao was so shocked that she almost screamed, but she had been in the palace for more than ten years, and the rules were very good, so she held back.

She shook the man's hand vigorously, but the other party pulled her even tighter, and pulled her forcefully behind the door.

Rantao stretched out his hands to grab the door, and was trying to find a way, when he suddenly heard a fairly familiar voice saying: "Sister Rantao, I like you, I, I want to marry you!"

Hearing this, Rantao was really shocked. She saw clearly that the person in front of her was Sun Zhuqing through the light from outside the wall!She was not angry immediately, nor was she angry.She thought that although this person is absurd, but has no bad intentions, she calmly said: "This gentleman is probably lost in his sleep, please let me go, I think I have never heard these words!"

Sun Zhuqing was anxious: "Sister, what I said is true! Are you willing to marry me? If you are willing, I will go to ask His Majesty and the Queen Mother!"

Rantao really didn't know how this person's head was born, he could say such words, and suddenly he was a little sullen: "Please let go!"

"I won't let go!"

Dye Tao Zhengse, to struggle again.The more he struggled, the more unwilling Sun Zhuqing was to let go.Before coming, the younger sister taught him to smudge and dye the pottery directly, and lie down in one place, and then she sent a servant girl over to make a noise, so that the guards who were watching the night could see that even the regenerated rice had to be ripe.

But he was really pleased with Tao, and he didn't want to force her like this.He also knew that in this case, Rantao could only be his concubine.He didn't know why, he had seen many stunning women, but the dyed pottery under the moonlight that night really fascinated him, and he couldn't forget it no matter what.He intends to tell Rantao his feelings face to face, hoping she will accept it.

Sun Zhuqing is a person who doesn't know how to count at all in his head. He never likes to read, and it is rare to read a book. It is also a Ci book that the servant secretly bought for him. .He expressed his heart now, but seeing Rantao refused, he still struggled in every possible way. In his impatience, he took out the handkerchief his sister gave her from his bosom, and covered Rantao's mouth.

Rantao struggled more and more, but she could already smell the strange fragrance from the tip of her nose, she gradually closed her eyes, and her body went limp.

The umbrella in her hand also fell to the ground.

Sun Zhuqing was stunned for a while, but regardless of the umbrella, he immediately carried her into the small wing on the side of Kunning Hall.

Ji Li kept vigil for Zhao Shishi. Zhao Shiyi didn't sleep well in the first place, especially these days.

He tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, so he simply sat up, sitting alone was also boring, and in this lonely rainy night, if he didn't talk, he always felt a little lonely.He called Jili, but Jili was in a daze for some reason, and did not respond when he called.

Zhao Shiyi opened the curtain, looked at Ji Li who was sitting on the bed in a daze, and called him: "Idiot!"

"Ah? Little gentleman!" Ji Li immediately turned to look at him.

"What are you thinking, you're in such a state of ecstasy."

"Little one, I'm thinking about Sister Rantao..."

"..." Zhao Shixi froze for a moment, grabbed another pillow at hand and hit him, "You are such an idiot that you want to eat swan meat! Thank you for being able to speak!"

Ji Li didn't understand what he meant, so he said, "Sister Rantao went out to look for pigeons, but she hasn't come back yet."

Only then did Zhao Shishi realize that he had misunderstood, and asked indifferently, "When did she go out?"

"Half an hour ago, when the little one came in to watch the night."

"It's been so long?" Zhao Shishi frowned.

Ji Li didn't reply, and the room was suddenly eerily quiet.Zhao Shishi felt that something was wrong. He is a person who can repeat his life, and sometimes he pays special attention to these sudden intuitions of his own.He immediately got out of bed and said to Ji Li: "You and I go out to find her!"

"Xiao Lang-jun?"

"Rantao is the most sensible, how can he not come back after searching for half an hour? How important is a pigeon?"

Zhao Shiyi hurriedly put on his clothes and went out with him. The two walked quietly without anyone knowing.

The imperial palace is only this big, and there are only a few palace roads. I asked a few guards who had seen Rantao before, and learned that they had seen Aunt Rantao at Xuanyou Gate.Zhao Shiyi felt more and more wrong. He was about to go to Kunning Hall, but he heard footsteps behind him. He looked back, and the little eunuchs in Baoci Hall were so frightened that they even forgot what they had to do. slip.

What else does Zhao Shishi not understand?Ji Li stepped forward and immediately arrested the young eunuchs, guarded by the guards.

The little eunuch cried, "Your little one is just following orders!", "Your little one doesn't know anything", and was dragged to the Kunning Hall together.

Rantao was fainted, and was lying on the bed with Sun Zhuqing in the wing room, when he heard people coming from outside the house, Sun Zhuqing thought it was the little eunuch and maid who had been arranged by his sister to bring the guards.He still felt a little regretful, the people in the palace saw him lying with Rantao and ruined Rantao's innocence, the Empress Dowager would definitely point out Rantao to him, even His Majesty had nothing to say.

But in this way, Rantao can only be his concubine.He also thought to himself that he must treat Rantao well in the future.Thinking of this, he became happy again.

Unexpectedly, before he finished his music, the door of the inner room was suddenly kicked open, and before he could react, he was picked up.The person who came threw him to the ground, raised his foot and stomped on his heart.

He cried out in pain, and someone kicked him twice in the heart, causing him to roll on the ground.

At this time, he finally came back to his senses, still remembering what his sister taught him, and said repeatedly: "I have a heart-to-heart with Miss Rantao—ah!"

Zhao Shishi slapped him across the face and threw him onto the bed. Sun Zhuqing hit his head against the corner of the bed like a weak chicken, and passed out immediately.Zhao Shiyi tore off the curtain on the bed again and threw it on Rantao, covering Rantao's body in obscene clothes.

Zhao Shiyi turned around and looked at the guards behind him, and asked with a smile, "Did you see anything?"

The guards bowed their heads: "I didn't see anything!"

"Listen to what?"

"I didn't hear anything!"

"If anyone dares to tell what happened today, I will not spare him! He will be separated!"

Just as Zhao Shixi was talking, another maid suddenly came over from outside the house to probe her head.Seeing such a situation in the room, she was so frightened that she turned around and wanted to slip away.Zhao Shishi remembered her, she was the maid beside Sun Xiaoyu!He also kicked him back then, although he did it on purpose, but he remembered it in his heart.

He smiled coldly: "Ji Li, go knock her out!"

"Yes!" Ji Li walked over, quickly grabbed the maid named Lu Shui, knocked her unconscious, brought her in and threw it on the ground.

Zhao Shishi said to the guards: "Take off the clothes of these two people, throw them on the bed, and you stay here. Report to Baoci Hall tomorrow morning and ask Empress Dowager Sun to come over and take a look! Look at her How does a good nephew behave in the palace? This is how the Sun family behaves? Don't even have any shame! They are still dukes!"

The guard was sweating all over his back, nodding his head repeatedly, Ji Li hastily picked up Rantao and walked out.

Zhao Shixi walked out the door, turned back and threatened, "Shut your mouths tightly. Otherwise—"

The guard reassured: "Please rest assured, Mr. Xiao Lang!"

Only then did Zhao Shishi take Rantao back.

Several guards breathed a sigh of relief together, and acted according to Zhao Shiyi's words, and then looked at the nude couple on the bed with disdain.

Where did you get the guts?Dare to do this to Aunt Rantao of Funing Hall?

They also thought in their hearts that the most unpromising thing is that they are all stunned, and they just lie in one place, not daring to do anything.It's not fucking cowardly, what is it?

They despise such people the most!

Sun Xiaoyu only thought of saving Zhao Cong's face, where did she think of something deeper?No matter how much she improves, she is still an embroidered pillow.She thought that her brother had sullied Rantao's innocence, and Zhao Cong had no choice but to give Rantao to her brother as a concubine.

What kind of joke is it for His Majesty's personal female officer to be her brother's concubine?Everyone has to laugh at him!

No matter how bad the empress dowager is now, she is also the empress dowager, how can she be trapped by such a thing?

She is used to being arrogant and pampered. From the time she could remember, her family members said that Zhao Cong was useless and that the palace belonged to the Queen Mother's aunt.Even if there are changes in the palace now, that's fine.

So she thought of such a stupid idea, and thought she was smart, avenging herself and her mother.She thought the Queen Mother would thank her when she turned around.

Fortunately, Sun Zhuqing did have a bit of admiration for Rantao, and he didn't dare to insult him, which is rare for a gentleman.

Otherwise, Rantao's life would really be ruined.

But to her, it was really a disaster.
