No one knows why the concubine Xiao, who had no sense of presence in the harem, hanged herself on New Year's Day. It is said that she left only two lines of poems in front of her body.

Some people say that without the first emperor, Concubine Xiao is like a bamboo that grows alone in the harem, without any support, she will be bullied by others; Pick her up……

However, the notice posted in the palace stated that the concubine Xiao had a very strong relationship with the late emperor. Since the late emperor passed away, the concubine Xiao had shed tears all day long without a break. Therefore, taking advantage of the New Year's Palace people's busy reception, she hanged herself in the palace. its room.The emperor was grateful for his unswerving loyalty to the late emperor, so he was buried next to the late emperor's mausoleum, next to Empress Yihui.

On the fifth day of the first lunar month, the folks welcomed the five gods, and Concubine Ju invited herself to guard the mausoleum of the former emperor.The emperor allowed it, and granted his son the title of King of Hedong, and built a mansion in Jincheng.Since then, the precedent has been set, and the family members of the former emperors in the harem have all invited themselves to go to the royal temple to practice on their behalf, praying for the blessings of the Dacheng Kingdom and praying for the peace of the mountains and rivers.

Although the state affairs are heavy, it has nothing to do with Feng Suzhen, who has no important responsibilities.

Shangguan Tang returned to China years ago and took Guan Guan with him.I thought Guan Guan would find ways to stay, but I didn't expect Guan Guan to ask Shangguan Tang Huili on his own initiative.

"I made a fortune for Brother Shaomin, and then signed a contract. Brother Shaomin still had no way out when his martial arts were still there. Now that his martial arts and memory are gone, he will die completely? I don't want to. I saw Sister Tianxiang following her to die for love, so I'm going to go back to the teacher's gate and ask those old immortals if there is any solution. After I find a solution, I will come back, and I will never leave again I'm haunting you every day!"

When leaving, Guan Guan told Feng Suzhen behind his back, telling Tianxiang his real purpose of going back, one is to remind Tianxiang of the twists and turns in the future, and the other is to make Tianxiang feel at ease.

Although before returning to the country, Guan Guan entangled Feng Suzhen again, but Tianxiang didn't say much, but Feng Suzhen greeted her with a cold face for several days afterwards, leaving Tianxiang helpless.

Because of the concubine Xiao's incident, Zhang Shaomin, who was going to have a full moon wine for his own child, had to cancel the banquet, so he quietly accepted some gifts from his colleagues, and picked a day for his servants to send an invitation to Feng Suzhen for a drink.

Feng Suzhen didn't want to go, but remembering Zhang Shaomin's serious appearance before, after thinking twice, she decided to go.

Before going, Feng Suzhen was afraid that Tianxiang would know that she wanted to go with her, but she didn't want to lie to Tianxiang, so she hesitated, and decided to tell Tianxiang directly that she was going to the prime minister's mansion, hoping that she would wait for her return in the princess mansion.

Tianxiang, who felt guilty towards Zhang Shaomin, didn't need Feng Suzhen to tell her, and she didn't intend to follow her, she just asked her to come back earlier, if she didn't come back after Youzheng, then don't blame her for going to the prime minister's mansion to arrest him.

With the gift Tianxiang prepared for her, Feng Suzhen went to the Prime Minister's Mansion a street away in a sedan chair.

The green stones and white walls along the road are familiar to Feng Suzhen.She clearly knows that she has been in the capital for so long, and has never been to the prime minister's mansion, and she has never even passed by, but this slightly quiet road is very familiar to her, as if she has walked back and forth countless times before. Flowers are clear to the heart.

Feng Suzhen didn't have doubts for a long time, and the sedan chair stopped steadily.

Walking out of the sedan chair door, Zhang Shaomin stood at the gate in plain clothes, and seemed to have been waiting for her for a long time.Seeing her coming out, Zhang Shaomin immediately greeted her.

"I'm sorry, Prime Minister Zhang, Feng kept you waiting." No matter how hard Feng Suzhen was in her heart, she still had to be polite on the surface.

Zhang Shaomin led Feng Suzhen inside, and said as he walked, "Where is it? I was afraid of neglecting Lord Hou, so I stood at the door ahead of time, and it has nothing to do with Lord Hou."

Stepping into the door, the vermilion door closed behind them. The two looked at each other, exhaled and smiled.

"Brother Feng, you don't need to be too polite when you enter the mansion. Today I invited you alone. Come, follow me for a drink first."

Feng Suzhen looked at the gray sky, smiled wryly and said, "Brother Zhang, it's too early to drink now. If anyone finds out, they should not join us. It's a crime of drinking too much and delaying official duties."

"Haha, brother Feng, it's still on annual leave, even if the emperor knows it, he won't blame it too much. But if brother Feng doesn't want to, then let's drink tea first, and after dinner, I'll take you to meet my child .”

Thinking that Tianxiang said that Youzheng would not return and came to find her in person, Feng Suzhen didn't want to delay in Zhang Shaomin's residence, so she said: "The left and right are fine now, why don't you go and see the child first?"

"But..." Zhang Shaomin hesitated.

"Is it inappropriate now?"

"No." Zhang Shaomin glanced at Feng Suzhen, "I invite you here to see the child, and I have a heartless request."

"Oh? Brother Zhang, please tell me."

"I discussed with my wife that I would like to ask Brother Feng to name this first child." Zhang Shaomin said seriously.

There is only one concubine in the prime minister's mansion, and Zhang Shaomin called her his wife, which is not inappropriate, but Feng Suzhen was puzzled by the giving of the name, so she asked: "The name is self-proclaimed, and it is not allowed to be given by the elders. How can He De go beyond the Zuzu?"

"The ancients said: It is better to give a child a thousand gold than to teach him a skill; to teach a child a skill is better to give him a good name. Brother Feng has the talent of the top scholar and has a strong martial arts. I hope that when the child grows up, he can be like Brother Feng. Noble and suave."

When Feng Suzhen heard this, she suddenly felt like a dumb man eating coptis. She was not worried, but she couldn't show it on her face. She shirked and said, "It's still not right. Feng Moude is not worthy. How dare you name the prime minister's son."

"If Brother Feng says that he is not worthy of virtue, then I really don't know who in this world..." Zhang Shaomin seemed to think of something in the middle of his speech, stopped, smiled lightly and shook his head, "Oh, I don't force it either. Brother Feng, let's take Brother Feng to see Gouzi first."

There was three points of curiosity in my heart, otherwise Feng Suzhen, who was full of resentment, would just leave with a sleeve.The perfect capable person in each of their mouths is that Feng Shaomin, who has nothing to do with her, Feng Suzhen, but let her carry this expectation and work hard to maintain that tall and brilliant image carefully.

She was mentally prepared, no matter how thorny and difficult the road ahead was, how bumpy and dangerous it was, she would accompany Tianxiang through the journey.No matter how many ideas, in the face of reality, it is always not enough. Feng Suzhen only now knows that she is so narrow-minded, and she also has jealousy that cannot be concealed.She thought that she would never have any emotional fluctuations in the few years she lived in Shi'an County, but everything now tells her that Feng Suzhen is an ordinary person in the world, Feng Suzhen also has emotions and desires, and Feng Suzhen is jealous of Feng Shaomin.

Walking to the door of the bedroom, Zhang Shaomin knocked on the door lightly, explaining his purpose loudly, and the door opened from the inside.

"Master." The girl who opened the door greeted Zhang Shaomin and Feng Suzhen lightly, and led them into the room with her head lowered.

Feng Suzhen felt something strange when she walked in, when she was about to step into the threshold of the inner room, Feng Suzhen refused to go outside the threshold, and said to Zhang Shaomin: "Brother Zhang, I'm afraid it's not suitable for me to enter here?"

"It's okay, other people can't get in, but brother Feng can." Zhang Shaomin raised the curtain to block the wind and said to Feng Suzhen with a smile.

"The inside is the inner bedroom. I...it's inconvenient for me to go in and see my wife like this. I just wait in the outer room for Brother Zhang to bring the child out." Feng Suzhen said, taking two steps back.

"Brother Feng, don't make things difficult for me. If you don't go in, she will have to come out by herself." Zhang Shaomin shrugged at Feng Suzhen in a helpless manner.

Feng Suzhen was suspicious and refused to go in, so Zhang Shaomin could only say "I'm sorry", grabbed Feng Suzhen's sleeve, and dragged her in.

Feng Suzhen was furious, if her martial arts were still there, how could Zhang Shaomin pull her in so easily?Damn it!

But before Feng Suzhen could vent her anger, she saw the woman holding the child on the bed, her eyes widened and she forgot to be angry.

That woman is not hers, but Feng Suzhen's former personal maid, Mei Zhu, who loves her like a sister.

"You, you..." Feng Suzhen was tongue-tied and taboo about her identity, so she was speechless for a while.

Zhang Shaomin waved his hand and told all the maids and mother-in-law who were serving in the room to go out, leaving the three of them in the inner room.

"Miss." Mei Zhu called out with tears in her eyes, not shying away from Zhang Shaomin at all.

"Mei Zhu, you..." Feng Suzhen glanced at Zhang Shaomin who had not changed his face in panic, and then looked at Mei Zhu, a little at a loss.

Zhang Shaomin moved a chair and placed it beside the plum and bamboo bed, and said to Feng Suzhen, "Sit down and talk, we haven't seen each other for so long, we may have a lot to say."

"Miss, my lord, my lord has already noticed your strangeness, so I told you the truth, and please punish me." Mei Zhu held the child in her arms, looked at Zhang Shaomin embarrassedly, and confessed to Feng Suzhen in a low voice.

At this point, Feng Suzhen had no choice but to turn around and confront Zhang Shaomin to the end, saying: "Suzhen concealed her identity and pretended to be a son-in-law. It is an unforgivable crime, but now she has a heavy burden and cannot reveal her real body. I hope the Prime Minister will let you go." Suzhen once, in the future Suzhen and the princess will thank you face to face."

"I'm serious," Zhang Shaomin stretched out his hand to help Feng Suzhen, but because of the difference between men and women, he put down his hand and said with a smile, "If I want to expose your identity, I won't ask you to go to the house specifically, and I won't let you You and Mei Zhu have a chance to meet master and servant."

"Then..." Feng Suzhen looked at Zhang Shaomin suspiciously.

"Miss, it was Mei Zhu who wanted to see Miss, so I asked my husband to invite you here." Mei Zhu said with a smile, wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Feng Suzhen was still afraid of her own identity, and asked Mei Zhu: "How do you know that the son-in-law is me?"

"Because the son-in-law has always been a young lady." Mei Zhu answered as a matter of course.

Seemingly unable to understand Mei Zhu's words, Feng Suzhen frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Miss, Meizhu married my husband a year ago because they have been in love with each other for a long time. Meizhu understands the character of the husband, so when the husband asked about the young lady, Meizhu told the old lady, so the young lady does not need to be wary of the old lady. " Mei Zhu, who didn't know the truth, thought that Feng Suzhen was still keeping a secret at this time, so she pretended to know nothing.

Zhang Shaomin stepped forward to take the child carefully, and said to Mei Zhu: "It's not convenient for me to be here, I'd better take the child out first, call me when you finish chatting, I'm next door."

"Wait a minute," Feng Suzhen stopped Zhang Shaomin's way, looked at the plums and bamboos, "I have never had a close relationship with the prime minister since I came to the capital, but I still heard a little bit that the late emperor once wanted to marry him after his son-in-law traveled to heaven. The princess was married to the prime minister, and although she withdrew her life for some reason, but the prime minister accepted my maidservant as a concubine, leaving one of the main house vacant, it doesn't seem to be considered a noble character?"

"Feng...I'll call you Brother Feng, Brother Feng, it's a long story, but it's definitely not as bad as you think," Zhang Shaomin said, "If you believe what I say, I can tell you exactly what happened. to inform you."
