Sir, I can do it!

Wei Zhao turned his head, and Changsun Ke was holding a flower-folded umbrella and looking at him quietly, with a faint smile on his mouth.

Wei Zhao smiled at him, "Why are you here!"

Changsun Ke raised his chin and pointed out the window: "It's snowing, I'll take you home."

Wei Zhao turned his head to look at Han Chongliang, Han Chongliang grinned: "Go, go, Cheng Yi and I are going back too. Sigh, the weather is really bad, it's still snowing now..."

When Wei Zhao stepped out of the private room, Qin Yusheng also came over.He said to Qin Yusheng apologetically: "I won't listen to the song today, you just finished singing so you can take a rest, I'll come back another day."

Qin Yusheng said with a smile: "It might as well, Yusheng will accompany Mr. Wei at any time." After speaking, he leaned over and stood to one side, watching the two of them leave together, and it took a long time to look away.

It was already early spring, and the snow particles fell to the ground and could not survive, turning into snow water.Changsun Ke opened the umbrella, the snowflakes fell quietly, and the two walked quietly side by side.

Wei Zhao drank a lot of wine, and when the clear wind blew, most of the wine was sober, only a little drunk remained, and the smell of alcohol was thin on his breath.

"...The car at the house is parked in the alley ahead." Wei Zhao hiccupped.

"Do you want to go home?"

Wei Zhao looked at him confusedly: "Didn't you come to pick me up?"

Chang Sun Ke glanced at him, Wei Zhao understood instantly, turned his head and told Xiaolou: "You follow the coachman back to the house, and tell my father to go back later today."

Xiaolou has been with Wei Zhao for more than half a year, and he knows that the eldest grandson and the young master seem to have an unusual relationship, and Hou Ye does not prevent the young master from getting close to the eldest grandson.

Xiaolou consciously understood what the young master meant, and said with a smile: "Young master, play more happily."

Wei Zhao: ...

Turning across Xishui Street is Luohua Lane. I don't know when Chang Sun Ke bought a two-entry house here.

The outside of the yard looks ordinary, but the inside of the yard is very quiet.There are two plum trees in the backyard. When it snows in winter, Wei Zhao comes here to enjoy the plum trees.

The rooms are also well furnished.There is a screen in the house, and the paintings on it are made by Wu She.To be precise, this screen is exactly the decoration in the private room on the third floor of Wangyue Building.In the study room, there are several Wu She's paintings, all of which Changsun Ke collected from Wangyue Tower.

Seeing that Wei Zhao was still shaking while walking, Changsun Ke helped him to sit in the corridor, made him a cup of tea, and took another plate of plum blossom crisps.

"What would you like to eat tonight?"

Wei Zhao squinted at him: "You did it?"

Chang Sun Ke nodded.

Wei Zhao immediately refused: "I'm definitely not hungry at night."

Changsun Ke: "...Are you sure? If you don't eat, you will lose your strength."

Wei Zhao: "I don't need strength."

Changsun Ke: "I think you will need it. If you don't have the strength, you can't row the boat."

Wei Zhao: ...he knew it! ! !

Speaking of which, except for the plum blossom crisps that Changsun Ke cooked, the dishes he fried were either undercooked or burnt.In short, Wei Zhao would not eat even if he was starved to death.

After sweating profusely, Wei Zhao slumped on the bed listlessly, and softly poked Chang Sun Ke: "I'm so hungry."

"I cooked porridge."

"Is it cooked? Can I eat it?"

Changsun Ke tilted his head and thought for a while: "I think it's edible."

Wei Zhao: ...

There was an accident in Qionghua Palace yesterday, and Mrs. Feng invited an order to enter the palace this morning.Concubine Feng lost a lot of weight, but her spirit recovered a lot.She sat there with a calm face, and her eyes were firmer than before, as if the domineering Concubine Feng Gui disappeared overnight.

Mrs. Feng's heart ached unceasingly: "God damn it, you don't even let a newborn child go. What does the emperor say?"

Concubine Feng lowered her head and stroked the small silver lock: "The emperor asked Qi'er to investigate."

Mrs. Feng frowned: "I heard that the thing was sent by Yongning Palace. If it matches with that, can Qi'er handle it? I heard that the one in Yongning Palace is most likely pregnant with a boy. , You said that if the middle palace gave birth to a son-in-law, we Qier..."

Concubine Feng immediately stepped back and said with a serious face: "Mother, there are some things that cannot be said."

Mrs. Feng patted her mouth: "Look at my mouth, I'm not worried about you mother and son. Fortunately, the emperor loves you, otherwise mother will really worry about it."

Concubine Feng's complexion also softened: "Yes, so mother, don't worry, the emperor will not let the real murderer go."

"The real murderer?" Mrs. Feng leaned forward and whispered, "Isn't it the queen?"

Although Concubine Feng sometimes does things without thinking, she is not stupid.It was because she was too sad that she didn't think deeply about it before. When she woke up and asked about it, and Mother Feng raised her point, she felt that something was wrong.

She said to Mrs. Feng: "Mother, what do you think of our Feng family compared to Zhen Guohou's mansion?"

Mrs. Feng said strangely: "Then how can there be any comparison? They are the nobles of Xiangzhou, and they also made great contributions to the founding of the world with the king of Qi. Our Feng family was not even as good as mud legs at that time. Although they are imperial merchants now, their status Humble, otherwise we, Qi'er, would have been crowned princes long ago."

Concubine Feng Gui asked again: "So what do you think my daughter is better than the queen?"

Mrs. Feng looked at Concubine Feng strangely, and remained silent for a while.

Concubine Feng Gui couldn't help being annoyed: "Mother can tell the truth as she wants to say, I know how much your daughter is worth."

Mrs. Feng smiled awkwardly: "That mother said, you can't be angry."

Concubine Feng suddenly wanted to be angry.

Mrs. Feng said: "In my mother's eyes, you are good in every way, but in this harem, it's not your mother who belittled you. That Empress Wei came from a noble family, and we can't compare with you in terms of breadth and knowledge. You are in the harem. The wind is going smoothly, although it is relying on the emperor's favor, but if that person really cares about you, you may not be where you are today."

Although this is not pleasant to say, it is the truth.Concubine Feng Gui said, "Mother understands now."

Mrs. Feng was at a loss: "Understand what?"

Concubine Feng Gui said: "As Mother said just now, if the empress really wants to deal with me, she only needs to move her fingers. He has thousands of ways to make me lose my status today, but she has never done it. Qi'er has grown up, little girl." Wu is even less of a threat to her, so why should she do anything to Xiao Wu. Even if she really has feelings for Xiao Wu, how could she leave such an obvious clue."

Mrs. Feng was enlightened: "That's not true! If mother is concerned, she will be confused, but she didn't think so much."

Concubine Feng Gui sighed: "I have been arguing with her for so many years, but she has never paid attention to her. In other words, she doesn't care about the concubines in the harem. She didn't have a son in those years, and we concubines one after another. life, but there has never been any murder of the emperor's heir."

"More than that, Mr. Yu who teaches the prince in the palace is also a great Confucian in the world. It was the queen who asked Mrs. Wei to leave the Qin family to invite this person. Qi'er admires Mr. Yu very much, and Mr. Yu is also dedicated to teaching Qi'er. Although I don't want to admit it, I have to say that the empress is a rare and worthy empress."

Mrs. Feng also sighed, but she was not as optimistic as Concubine Feng.She said: "In the past, the queen had no children. Now she has her own child. Maybe it is to pave the way for the child."

Concubine Feng Gui said: "If it is to pave the way for the child, then it is time to deal with Qi'er. Besides, the piece of Sichuan brocade was directed at the queen, and nothing else can be found out. Qi'er sealed off Qionghua Palace, and the palace officials checked one by one. , It’s been a night and nothing has been found.”

Mrs. Feng held Concubine Feng's hand, it was soft but cold.Mrs. Feng couldn't help but said distressedly: "You have been thinking about Xiao Wu during the confinement period, and you haven't been able to take a good rest. Taking advantage of the current emperor's love, you should take good care of your body. You are still young..."

"Mom, now is not the time to talk about this."

Mrs. Feng wiped her tears: "Yes, yes, mother won't tell."

"Mother, send Nian'er into the palace later. I feel a little flustered, I can't trust anyone in Qionghua Palace except Nanny Feng and Xia'er."

Mrs. Feng nodded again and again: "Don't worry, Nian'er is our family's son, and he is the most loyal. But there are many old people in Qionghua Palace who have been with you for many years. Why, some people have the idea of ​​betraying the master?"

Concubine Feng shook her head: "I don't know either. Mother doesn't know. Since the empress became pregnant, the emperor has entrusted me with all matters in the palace. I know that the emperor wants me to take this opportunity to gain power in the harem. Not good, let Cui Meiren take care of the palace affairs."

"When the former empress was in charge, the harem was constantly fighting, but no one would die. On the contrary, Cui Meiren has been taking care of the harem, and it hasn't stopped. I suspect that this incident was planned by someone who wanted to take our Feng family Zuo Fazi, tell us to confront the queen."

Mrs. Feng patted her thigh: "Yes, yes, last year's Li Chu incident was so fierce. If we fight with the queen, the other families will sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. No matter who loses the fight, we will treat them In other words, there is one less rival.”

Mrs. Feng said solemnly: "I'll tell your father and younger brother when I get back, tell them to pay more attention, don't be taken advantage of by those people outside."

"I heard that my younger brother has a good relationship with the third son of the Wei family?"

Mrs. Feng said: "No, I don't know what's so good about Mr. Wei San. Your father told him not to associate with them, but he didn't listen."

"Okay, mother also persuades father, my brother doesn't have many friends, if he likes to associate with them, father will not stop him."

"Hey, it wasn't that you fought fiercely with the queen back then, your father was afraid that your brother would be used by the Wei family, so he arrested him."

"What happens in the palace has nothing to do with my younger brother."

"Okay, mother knows that you love your brother, so mother will tell your father when she returns."

Concubine Feng Gui nodded absent-mindedly, with a little tired look on her face.Mrs. Feng said softly: "Qi'er is getting older, he will take care of the outside affairs, take good care of your body, and don't let Qi'er worry about you."

"I know, the palace is in chaos now, so I won't keep any more mothers."

Nanny Feng sent Mrs. Feng out, and she came back after a long time. When she came back, she looked a little unhappy.

Concubine Feng Gui asked worriedly: "What's wrong?"

Mother Feng said: "Yao Zhu, the maid in charge of needlework in our palace, committed suicide."

Concubine Feng was dizzy for a while: "The clothes Xiao Wu wears are all made by her?"

"is her."
