The Way of the Consort

Pei Rong found out later that the man that day was Ji Chongjin, Ji Zhao's elder brother.

He was four years old when his family fell into ruin. Perhaps he should thank his father, whom he had never met, for spoiling concubines and destroying wives. Concubine, take the initiative to hide in Zhuangzi.

His mother was afraid that he would be harmed by those concubines, so she took him to live in Zhuangzi. His father never asked her, and his mother only planned to wait for him to grow up and become stronger until no one could kill him again. Take him back to the city to recognize his ancestors.

He Qiniang's mother, who was his mother's dowry maid, was favored by his father, but later he disliked him and threw him to the Zhuangzi. He grew up with He Qiniang in the Zhuangzi like this. His life is definitely not as lively as in the city, but he is also comfortable. .

After the Lu family's accident, Zhu Jiu's family, mother and Aunt He were all tied up. The two children who grew up in hiding were fortunate enough to escape unharmed. The loyal servant led them to flee north, and they had no choice but to flee to Liangguo.

They were rescued by Concubine De of Liang Kingdom. Of course, at the beginning, they didn't know that those people belonged to Concubine De. He also gradually learned that Concubine De helped their brothers and sisters grow up, and found someone to teach them to read and practice martial arts. Day after day to instill hatred in them.

He is relatively indifferent by nature. Even though he is indoctrinated every day, he has never been incited. He even thinks that according to his grandfather and father's cold and selfish temperament, they should have indeed committed a serious crime. home framed.

The love and hate in the world are like this, rather than living in hatred, he wants to be a wild crane.

But he is not a fool, after knowing that the other party is De Fei's person, he understands the reason why De Concubine saved them.It is only natural to eat human food and return favors, and their brothers and sisters always have to return this favor.He is not a person who likes to take advantage, and he is willing to be used by Concubine De temporarily.

But he always remembers his ideal, he still wants to go back to the mountains and live his life freely.

Therefore, he only intends to do well what Liu Rui arranged, and he doesn't want to take care of the extra things.

But the younger sister, He Qiniang, was thoroughly indoctrinated. She believed that the Yin family deserved death, the Ji family deserved death, and the entire royal family deserved death.When is the time for retribution?When he was in Meizhou, Pei Rong had already tasted the feeling of being confused.

He originally planned to finish this time, and then he would be able to reconnect with Princess Fuchen, and he would be able to completely put aside these innate hatreds.

Only after seeing the scene where Ji Chongjin got along with Princess Fuchen did he know that it was impossible to go back to the past.

Princess Fuchen's eyes will no longer be bright just for him, and even Princess Fuchen's eyes will never see him again.

It was only at this time that he discovered that he had other ideals besides being a idle cloud and a wild crane.

His ideal is Princess Fuchen who once loved him so sincerely.

Ji Chongjin must die. He hates the Ji family and everyone in the Ji family.

Not only did Ji Chongjin have to die, but he also had to be ruined.

He wanted Princess Fuchen to know that Ji Chongjin was a hypocrite!

Pei Rong plotted how to frame Ji Chongjin, Zong Zhen hadn't found a space to tell Fu Chen about Pei Rong, Zhou Liangdi came to him first.

At this time, according to the last time he made that suggestion, exactly half a month and fifteen days had passed.

Zong Zhen asked her to sit down and talk, Zhou Liangdi saluted, then sat on a chair, put her hands on her knees, looked into Zong Zhen's eyes, and said: "Your Highness, I have made up my mind, I am willing to "die of illness". "

Hearing that she no longer called herself a "concubine", Zong Zhen knew what she meant, and after hearing it, it was true.

He nodded, and then said: "Miss Zhou, don't worry, I will do what I promised you."

"Thank you, Your Highness, I, I have one more merciless request."

"you say……"

"I, if my uncle does something wrong in the future, can my family be spared?" Zhou Liangdi said very anxiously.

Zong Zhen said: "Yes, your family members are all honest people, I promise you."

A smile appeared on Zhou Liangdi's face: "Thank you so much, Your Highness!"

Zong Zhen smiled lightly, and said: "I will arrange the specific matters in a few days, and I will call you again. Your maid of honor cannot go with you."

"Your Highness, let me save you, when I am "seriously ill", can you let them go home?I will ask my family to take care of them. "

Zong Zhen naturally responded to these trivial matters one by one, and the two of them talked again.

Zhou Liangdi got up, bowed deeply, raised her head and said: "Your Highness, I'm afraid we will never see each other again in this life, and I don't know how to say nice words, I just hope everything goes well with you."

"Thank you……"

Zhou Liangdi stood up, smiled at him, turned around to leave, thought for a while, then turned her head again, pondered for a moment, and whispered: "May Sanlang of the Ji family be so happy forever!"

Zong Zhen raised his eyebrows, Zhou Liang Di was blessed, and didn't dare to stay for long, turned around and ran away.

Zong Zhen looked at the back of her running away, and smiled, in fact, this is also a very interesting girl.

Pei Rong has always been hiding on the mountain of Dabaoen Temple. When he and his sister were underage, they were sent back to Xi Country by the people of Liang Country. He entered the temple, and He Qiniang rearranged his identity.The Dabaoen Temple is considered to be half a royal temple, and the monk who brought Pei Rong back was also a master of the Liang Dynasty.

Later, Pei Rong killed him, because the monk listened too much to Concubine De, Liu Rui and the others, ordering him all day long.

He was still young at that time, and he was physically and mentally controlled by people in Liang Country. How could he continue to accept such control when he returned to Xi Country?After all, it was not easy to place people in Xiguo, and there was no one around to guard him. He pushed the monk down the mountain and killed him.

The monk had a high status in the temple, and even after his death, the meditation room he lived in remained.

This meditation room is an important base for Pei Rong to communicate with the people of Liangguo. There are often monks who place orders to stay in Dabaoen Temple. Occasionally, there are a few monks who place orders. They are the ones who come to meet with Pei Rong, because they are hidden too well , so far no one has discovered.

Pei Rong was planning to tarnish Ji Chongjin's reputation with one stroke. On this day, a new monk came to Dabaoen Temple.

Monk Hang Dan said that he admired Master Rong Ming, who was the monk who was killed by Pei Rong, and Monk Hang Dan temporarily lived in the wing room next to Master Rong Ming's meditation room.

At night, when Pei Rong came to see him, the monk who made the order gave Pei Rong the name of the place, and said in a low voice, "Hurry up to this place!"

"Who wants to see me?"

"You will know when you go!"

Pei Rong took a look at him, forgiving that this monk would not dare to harm him, after all, this is the territory of the Xi Kingdom, and Concubine De and Liu Rui still have an emperor and second prince above them, Pei Rong responded, and quietly left the meditation room, taking advantage of the night He went down the mountain to that place.

It was a private house on the outskirts of Jinling, hidden in a village, even Pei Rong didn't know that Liu Rui and the others still had such a foothold.He went nearby, climbed up a tree and observed carefully for a long time, making sure there was no one else around, jumped off the tree and climbed over the wall into the house, and then put a sword across his neck.

He took a closer look and found that it was a woman with a serious description.

"You are Pei Rong?" the man asked him.

"Yes. Who are you?"

As soon as the words fell, another woman came by and searched him directly, and took away all the weapons on his body, including silver needles, and then led him in, with the sword still on his neck .

Entering the room, only a small lamp was lit on the table, no wonder it was pitch black from the outside.

There was a person sitting at the table, when Pei Rong entered, that person lowered his head, looking at the figure, he turned out to be a woman too!Pei Rong secretly thought, who is this?Could it be—

The woman looked up at him, raised her chin slightly, and asked him the same question: "Are you Pei Rong?"

"Yes, are you?"

The woman smiled, even though she was sitting in the dark, her voice was high and high: "I am Princess Qingyang."

After returning from the mountain, Ji Zhao has been busy with the "travel agency".

I thought it would be difficult, and it is indeed difficult in practice, but fortunately Ji Zhao was not in a hurry to start a career, so he just passed the time and took his time, it was very interesting, Xiaoyaozi wrote back to him , gave him a lot of advice, and he still went to see Qin Wen's colleagues and contemporaries from time to time.

In the past, Ji Zhao didn't like to meet strangers, but after getting in touch more now, he found that it was quite interesting.

Most of the people who have a good relationship with Qin Wen are also very good-natured. Knowing that he is a son-in-law, they will not deliberately flatter him, nor will they shrink back because of his status, so everyone treats him as ordinary friends. Had a great time.

He was busy going around every day, which made Zongzhen feel a little bit palatable, but Zongzhen knew that this was what Ji Zhao liked to do, so how could he stop him?Zong Zhen likes to see Ji Zhao's silly smile every day. Even if Ji Zhao is so busy recently, most of what he does is useless. As long as Ji Zhao is happy, the process can make people happy, can't they?

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had no choice but to run to Ji Zhao's house every day.

When Ji Zhao was busy, he didn't forget to visit Princess Fuchen.

It's just that Ji Zhao is a little strange. Before going to the Dabaoen Temple, Princess Fuchen was in a bad mood and looked a lot of troubles. Now Princess Fuchen is still in a bad mood and looks a lot of troubles, but she feels that the essence is completely different?

But Ji Zhao couldn't tell exactly what was different.

However, Princess Fuchen suddenly had two ducklings in her house!

When Ji Zhao saw it for the first time, he liked it very much. He casually asked where Princess Fuchen came from, but Princess Fuchen hesitated and couldn't tell. Why come.

On this day, he went to the princess mansion again, intending to see the two cute ducklings.

There are also several doors in the Princess Mansion. He usually goes to the Princess Mansion too lazy to go through the main entrance. It is too grand and troublesome. He usually enters and exits through the east gate, where there are few people and quiet.You must know that there are always some good people in Jinling City who will care about when and when he will go to the Princess Mansion again, so that many troubles can be avoided.

His carriage had just turned into the alley, and Yin Ming told him strangely outside the window: "Mr. Lang, why does the car parked outside the gate over there seem to be Ji's mansion's car?"

"Huh?" Ji Zhao immediately poked his head out to look out, and it was really Ji's carriage.

It's just that Ji Zhao couldn't tell whose carriage it was. He secretly wondered, did anyone in the Ji family have any relationship with Princess Fuchen?Also came here specially?How had he never heard of it?

Chen Xing said: "Could it be Mrs. Lin?"

Ji Zhao thinks about it too, and there is only Mrs. Lin, otherwise, who else in the Ji family would come to the princess mansion?Maybe Mrs. Lin came to see the princess, or to give the princess something?After all, he also heard from Princess Fuchen before that Mrs. Lin often had people come over with gifts, and she never made mistakes in terms of etiquette.

Maybe today she came by herself.

Since Mrs. Lin was here, he would not go, and he and Mrs. Lin had nothing to say, so he ordered the carriage to turn around.

Some of Qin Wen’s friends are not officials in the court, and they usually have regular gathering places. Ji Zhao simply went to find them, but found that a familiar gentleman surnamed Deng was not there. Ji Zhao asked, and everyone didn’t know where he went .

Ji Zhao didn't take it seriously either, and then someone approached Ji Zhao quietly, and whispered, "Brother Zhao, Deng San and I are good friends, and I know why he didn't come."

"Ah?" Ji Zhao saw him like this, could there be something more important?

"Deng San is, uh, the cousin of Zhou Liangdi in the Eastern Palace. His mother and Zhou Liangdi's mother are direct sisters. It is said that Zhou Liangdi seems to be a bit bad..."

Ji Zhao was so surprised that his eyes widened.

After all, this is the matter of Donggong, that person may also feel that it is not good to say too much, so he ran away quickly after speaking.

It was only then that Ji Zhao remembered that there was Zhou Liangdi in the East Palace, which he had forgotten for a long time.

Is Zhou Liangdi sick?

Ji Zhao got up immediately, took his leave and left, and hurried to the palace.
