The Way of the Consort

"Lang Jun! We're here!" Yin Ming parked the carriage, jumped out of the carriage neatly, and stepped forward to lift the curtain.

Ji Zhao felt the cold wind coming towards him, he shivered and said, "I didn't expect this place to be so cold!"

"It was originally on the mountain, and now it's the end of August, so it's cool." Chen Xing said, and put a cloak on him. Ji Zhao got down from the carriage and looked around. There were tall trees everywhere. There was no one here. look like?

Chen Xing jumped down, also surprised: "Hey, is it really here?"

Ji Zhao lowered his head and unfolded the map to look: "That's right, it's based on this map."

Yin Ming also came over to take a look, it was true, they were at the foot of the mountain at this time, but they couldn't find the way into the mountain.

Chen Xing said: "You won't be coaxed by that Xiaoyaozi, will you?"

Ji Zhaoyu died: "No way!"

After they left Jinling that day, Ji Zhao really didn't know where to go, and his mood was extremely depressed, and he was in a trance.

Later, it was Yin Ming who remembered that Xiaoyaozi had sent their lord a map, so he suggested to find Xiaoyaozi. Ji Zhao was completely in a state of "no self" at that time, and they were what they said, so they came to Xiaoyao. child.

Along the way, looking at the scenery, I slowly adjusted my mood, so that I would no longer look like a living dead.

Ji Zhao stepped forward with the map in hand: "Let's walk in, maybe we'll find a way!"

This was the only way. The three of them walked in. After walking for half an hour, they didn't see a road. It was still the weedy land that no one took care of at first sight. Ji Zhaozheng looked around in confusion, and suddenly , There was a "click" sound, and there was another sound of flapping wings, a small sparrow fell in front of them, almost hitting Ji Zhao.

Ji Zhao hurriedly took a step back, and Yin Ming asked loudly, "Who is it?!"

no one should...

"come out!"

Yin Ming threatened again: "If you don't come out again, I will do it!"

The three of them waited quietly for a while, only to hear the wind, Yin Ming was about to draw his sword——

"Tch, so boring." A cute girl's voice sounded from the tree.

The three of them looked up immediately, and saw a pair of dangling legs, dangling, and a small head protruding from the leaves. It was a little girl, about fifteen or sixteen years old.

"Who are you?" Ji Zhao asked her.

"Then who are you?"

"I came to find Xiaoyaozi, he gave me the map." Ji Zhao said, holding up the map to show her.

"Huh..." The little girl looked at him, turned around and came down from the tree. Ji Zhao hurriedly said, "Slow down..."

But she jumped down from the tree in a "swish" manner, walked up to Ji Zhao, and looked at the map in his hand, while Ji Zhao was looking at her, the little girl was very cute.

She took the map from Ji Zhao: "It is indeed Xiaoyaozi's, but Xiaoyaozi is not here."

"Then where did he go?"

"Going away, do something."

"When will he be back?"

"I don't know..." The little girl shrugged.

"So..." Ji Zhao thought for a moment, since Xiaoyaozi was not here, there was no need for him to stay any longer, and he said, "Excuse me..."

He said, turning around to leave, "Wait!" The little girl stopped him.

"Huh?" Ji Zhao turned around.

"Where did you come from, and where are you going?"

"I'm coming from Jinling, I'm going—" Ji Zhao didn't know where he was going, he thought for a long time, and when he thought of Meizhou, his eyes lit up, "I'm going to Meizhou!"

"Meizhou?!" The little girl's eyes lit up, "Is it Meizhou with many bamboo bears?"

Ji Zhao nodded.

She immediately leaned over: "Take me with you! OK?! I haven't been there yet!"

Strange to say, Ji Zhao hated strangers the most, but this little girl was not annoying to him. He even thought she looked familiar, and wanted to get close to her inexplicably.

Ji Zhao looked at her: "Can your family agree?"

"Of course I can! I forgot to tell you, I am Xiaoyaozi's daughter!"

Ji Zhao was shocked: "He has a daughter?!"

She fluttered her big black and white eyes: "Can't there be?"

"No, no—" Ji Zhao only felt that Mr. Xiaoyaozi's image became more and more confusing. You must know that in his impression, Xiaoyaozi was a vagabond image!Ji Zhao still couldn't believe it, so he said, "Then let me ask you, where is Xiaoyaozi in the third year of Yuanhe?"

She didn't think about it: "Xiaoyaozi is in Huzhou, eating three delicacies from Taihu Lake!"

"You really know!" You know, this paragraph is mentioned in Xiaoyaozi's handwritten book, and as far as Ji Zhao knows, it has never been published in the world.

"Of course I know! Xiaoyaozi was drunk at the time! I wrote that paragraph!"

Ji Zhao was startled again: "No wonder the handwriting in that paragraph is different!"

She proudly said, "Isn't the handwriting much prettier?!"

"Uh..." Although Ji Zhao didn't want to belittle his idol, it was true.

She laughed "hahaha": "Xiaoyaozi's handwriting is ugly! She was lazy when she was a child and didn't want to practice calligraphy. I am different. I play every day, and I don't forget to practice calligraphy and read books! That is the handwriting I wrote when I was ten years old. I can write better now! Look at the calluses on my hands!"

She stretched out her hand, and there were indeed calluses on her fingers around the slingshot.

She smiled: "How about it, can you take me there?"

"Yes, yes, but—"

"No more!"

"But--"

"No but!"

Ji Zhao had no choice but to say, "Then you go back and pack your luggage, so that I can pay my respects to Mr. Xiaoyaozi's thatched hut."

But the little girl said: "Thatched cottage? It collapsed the next day after it was built! The grass has long been taken to the fire!"

"..." Ji Zhao, Yin Ming, and Chen Xing laughed together.

Ji Zhao felt that this was his only truly happy day in so many days.

The little girl's name is Nuannuan, but she didn't tell Ji Zhao what her surname is, and Ji Zhao didn't insist on knowing. Xiaoyaozi kept Nuannuan here, and there must be adults with her. If she wants to take the little girl out to play, she must know Will you?

Nuan Nuan was so scared that she waved her hands again and again: "Hurry up, hurry up! Tell Uncle Zhong to know that he will definitely not be able to leave! Hurry up!"

Ji Zhao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but still left a letter, and pressed a stone under the tree that Nuan Nuan was climbing.

Xiaoyaozi originally lived in a mountain near Jiangling Mansion. After they left, they rushed to Meizhou. This is a completely different route from Jinling to Meizhou. With Nuannuan chattering all the way, the days are very easy to pass.

Nuan Nuan also writes travel notes, and Ji Zhao also knows many little secrets. For example, many of Xiaoyaozi's travel notes are written by Nuan Nuan.

"You can't blame Xiaoyaozi, she's too lazy and a bit stupid, so I'm the only one here! Sometimes I write it myself, and sometimes she dictates it, and I write it for me!"

Ji Zhao was amused by her and laughed. He kept buying things for Nuan Nuan along the way. After all, Nuan Nuan is Xiaoyaozi's daughter. Ji Zhao also bought her exquisite and beautiful jewelry. She liked it very much, but she just took a look at it Throw it behind you, it's true!

This is completely treating money as dung, and it doesn't matter at all.

Instead, he bought her two meat buns for ten renminbi, which made her squint her eyes with joy, and even called him "brother".

Hearing her call "brother", Ji Zhao's heart trembled, thinking of Zong Zhen.

I don't know if Zongzhen's body has recovered, and I don't know how they negotiated with Liangguo. So far, I haven't heard the news of the prince's engagement. Is it because the news has not yet come from Jinling, or...

"Brother, what are you thinking?" Nuan Nuan stretched out her paw and shook it in front of her eyes.

Ji Zhao came back to his senses, and said in a gentle voice, "It's nothing..."

Nuan Nuan ate a steamed stuffed bun and handed him one: "Aren't you going to eat it?"

"I won't eat, you eat slowly."

"Are you unhappy?"

"... "

"Your eyes are very sad." Nuan Nuan pointed to his eyes, and she leaned over, "What's wrong with you?"

"I, I and the person I like have separated." Ji Zhao didn't expect that he would say this to a little girl.

"Oh, that's it." Nuannuan sat back again, and said indifferently, "Isn't she just a woman! There is no grass anywhere in the world!"

Ji Zhao laughed "poof", and said, "He's a man..."

"Ouch!" Nuan Nuan's eyes widened, "You have broken sleeves!"

"You understand that too?"

"What don't I understand?" Nuan Nuan leaned over, "That would be easier, isn't it just a man, what is a dog man?"

"Who taught you this?"

"My mother, my mother said that men are like dogs, not worth entrusting."

"..." Ji Zhaopo was a bit speechless, all he could say was that she was worthy of Xiaoyaozi's daughter!

But after being interrupted by Nuan Nuan, he forgot those troubles, and chatted with the little girl again, with a smile on his face again.

In Jinling, inside Ji Zhao's villa, Zong Zhen was leaning against the head of the bed, frowning and blowing on a bowl of traditional Chinese medicine.

Chen Keye stood by the bed and reported: "I went to see Liu Rui's body. Your Highness, he was indeed hanged, but he was bleeding from all seven orifices. I am afraid that after his death, he was faked to look like he was poisoned."

Zong Zhen tasted the medicine, but it was still very hot, so he could only blow on it again.

Chen Keye said again: "Zong Mi is under house arrest by His Majesty in his own room, I plan to go check it out again tonight."

Zong Zhen raised his head, drank a bowl of medicine, and looked up at Chen Keye: "The others are not in a hurry, first go and arrest that crazy woman Liu Yun [Princess Qingyang], and hide it so that no one can find it."

"Yes!"

After Chen Keye finished speaking, he turned around and left, followed by Bao Qing and Cheng Shen. Zong Zhen glanced at them, but they didn't dare to move, they stood listlessly beside the bed with their heads down.

"Get out of here..." Zong Zhen was annoyed.

Only then did they dare to get closer.

Zong Zhen woke up in the morning five days ago. At that time, he spoke very clearly and with great difficulty. The first sentence he uttered intermittently was to order everyone to find Ji Zhao.

During his illness, in a daze, he could hear what Ji Zhao said, but he couldn't give any response. He was really anxious to death.

What to choose not to choose!

He and Liu Cang have always been in contact, and they agreed to a temporary alliance. Even if Liu Rui was killed by Zong Mi, he would have a way to frame this matter. Liu Cang has several brothers!What's more, with Liu Yun, a crazy woman, there is always a way to frame her!

Emperor Liang is the best at saving face. I'm afraid it's too late to hide things like children killing each other!

How can it go to the point where the two countries go to war? !

Now that Zong Zhen thought of Ji Zhao crying on top of him that day, he still couldn't help coughing and coughing up blood.

He couldn't blame his father and sister, they didn't have so many twists and turns.

He has only himself to blame.

That day, he also ordered Chen Keye to write a letter to Xiaoyaozi. He didn't know where Ji Zhao would go, and there were many ways to write to Xiaoyaozi. In the past few days, he has gradually become more fluent in speaking, and can sit on the bed and drink medicine by himself.

The wound was on the back, waist and abdomen, and they were all bandaged. When he was able to speak clearly, he fired at Bao Qing Chengshen and the others, which made Ji Zhao sneak away. He didn't dare to move too much these days.

He had to get better soon before he could go to Ji Zhao.

Like this, after more than half a month, Ji Zhao has already started to go to Meizhou.

However, there was chaos in Jinling City, because Princess Qingyang was also missing, and seeing that the delegation from the Kingdom of Liang was about to arrive, Renzong was so worried that his lips grew a few bubbles.

Zong Zhen drank medicine three meals a day, Chen Keye brought out a dumb man from the tunnel, and it was Liu Cang who sent him a message.

Zong Zhen also wanted to know who Liu Cang was going to plant this matter on this time, and was listening to the little mute talking with his lips.

Bao Qing asked for a meeting outside, Chen Keye went out, came back soon, and told Zong Zhen: "It is said that Xiaoyaozi came here and wants to see you!"

Zongzhen was surprised, and hurriedly asked Chen Keye to take the little mute down first, and then asked Xiaoyaozi to come over.

Zongzhen got out of bed with difficulty, put on a long gown, and finally saw the legendary Xiaoyaozi. To Zongzhen's surprise, the other person was extraordinarily slender...too slender, so slender that he didn't even look like a man...the other party had a Leaving behind the scenes.

Zong Zhen was startled, and said: "Sir, please sit down..."

"Cough!" The other party seemed a little embarrassed.

Zong Zhen was even more shocked, this voice was clearly a woman!

After a moment of silence, the other party simply pulled the curtain away, met Zong Zhen's astonished expression, and said awkwardly: "Since I have come, there is nothing to hide, and I can't hide it, yes, I am Xiaoyaozi..."

Zong Zhen looked at her face, not only shocked!

This, this face is almost exactly the same as Ji Zhao's. Isn't this Ji Zhao's mother in this life, Yin Ying, the only girl of the Yin family!

Yin Ying was obviously still very embarrassed, she pretended to be stern: "I came here in a hurry after receiving your letter. Such a big thing happened, it's about Zhao Zhao, Zhao Zhao, I have to show my face."

Zong Zhen also came to his senses. The other party was Ji Zhao's mother. He invited her to sit down, poured her tea, and asked, "Do you have any clues?"

"Uh, I don't have any clues, but I'm willing to go to Liangguo."

"Why?" Zong Zhen asked like this, but he thought of many things that he was surprised in the past, such as Liang Emperor Liu Gan looking at Ji Zhao in a daze, sending Ji Zhao a painting, and the doubts about Concubine De.

After all, she was facing the younger generation, Yin Ying spoke somewhat hesitantly: "I have known the Emperor of Liang Kingdom in the early years, and I can persuade him not to fight."

"Maybe you can talk about it specifically?" Zong Zhen said very politely, "I know a little more, so I can help you."

"Ahem..." Yin Ying took a sip of tea and told Zong Zhen about it.

Zong Zhen was amazed, his mother-in-law is amazing!

What Liu Rui said that day was quite correct.

Zong Zhen asked: "Then Liu Rui is Zhao Zhao's younger brother?"

Yin Ying immediately said with contempt: "He deserves it too! He belongs to one of my maids. I found out that Liu Gan lied to me. I wanted to leave a long time ago, but I was pregnant with a child. I just wanted to give birth to him and leave. Yes, I am walking outside, which is not conducive to the growth of the child. But my maid wanted to harm me and set me on fire. How could I let her wish? When I left Jinling, my father was afraid that I would be in danger, so he sent someone to protect me secretly Yes, I am the only one who knows about this matter. I took the child and escaped smoothly."

The matter is now very clear. Obviously, Concubine De is also using Yin Ying to deceive Liu Gan.

Zong Zhen said: "You don't have to do this, it's too hard for you, I have a way to handle this matter, there will never be a war, and you don't need to come forward."

Yin Ying said: "I don't think it's troublesome, I just feel that the mother and son are disgusting to me. I didn't expect them to have their abacus on my son! If you dare to do such a thing, you have to pay the price! What do you do?" Yours, I'll do mine too, all three of them must die! Let me see Liu Gan!"

Zongzhen thought for a while, and then said: "The journey to Liangguo is tiring, you can see that this can be done, the Liangguo mission will arrive tomorrow or the day after, and it is said that Lord Han, the confidant of Liangdi Liu Gan, will also come. He has always been inseparable from Emperor Liang, has he ever met you?"

"There are not many people who have met me, but he is really one of them."

Zong Zhen breathed a sigh of relief: "That's easy..."

The moment Yin Ying appeared in front of that Master Han, he was stunned.

Their Majesty always believed that she was not dead yet, and had been dreaming about her for so many years, no matter how powerful the fifth prince was, even ten of them together would not be as good as one of them!

In particular, Yin Ying directly told the truth that Liu Rui was not her child at all, Concubine De wanted to kill her, the mother and son had lied to Liu Qian for many years, the death of the fifth prince Liu Rui was not a big deal at once, Emperor Liang had treated her for so many years In the final analysis, Liu Rui's excessive doting was only because of her. Otherwise, there were so many princes, and Emperor Liang did not dote on them all.

Liang Guo's mission stayed in Jinling, and Mr. Han sent someone back to report.

No one thought that later, Liu Qian came to Jinling in person, and Renzong was so busy that he was at a loss. Why didn't he fight the battle, but the emperor of the neighboring country came?

The last time the Emperor Liang came to Jinling and the Emperor Xi went to Yanjing was nearly a hundred years ago!

But these are almost a month later.

Zongzhen was able to walk freely on the ground, but Ji Zhao still couldn't find him. There was no news about him. Zongzhen was in a very bad mood, and no one dared to approach him.

Zong Zhen thought, going on like this is not a problem.When Ji Zhao left, he only brought Yin Ming and Chen Xing with him. These two are reliable people, but they have never traveled outside for a long time. Who knows what they will encounter outside?

Especially Ji Zhao, who came from another world.

When he thought of this, his heart was on fire, and he couldn't stay still for a moment.

Zong Zhen didn't even wait for Liu Gan to come over. He came down from the mountain and entered the palace to Yanfu Hall.

Renzong was so busy these days that he didn't touch the ground, and he was a little ashamed to see his son. To put it bluntly, he was embarrassed. Zongzhen didn't waste any time, and expressed his intentions: "Father, I plan to go to Jinling."

Renzong was stunned: "Ah?" He hurriedly said, "No! You are still taking care of yourself!"

"The reason why it was so dangerous a few days ago was simply because of poisoning. Now that the poison has been cured, the wound is fine. When changing the dressing yesterday, Lord Luo said that the recovery is not bad. After all, it takes one or two months to nourish the body, so it can't be dealt with. As for government affairs, I might as well leave Jinling, and I will take rest on the way, so I won’t be in a hurry.”

"It's so good, why do you have to leave Jinling?!"

"I want to find Ji Zhao."

Renzong choked, and said again: "It's strange to say, this child is afraid that I will blame him? How could I blame him, alas! I will send someone to find him back, and you don't need to go there yourself."

"Father, there is actually something I want to tell you."

"You say, you say."

"I do have someone I like, and that person has never been Princess Qingyang."

Emperor Renzong knew what he should know these days. He also knew about the fact that Princess Qingyang lied to him. It saved your life anyway."

"This is what I want to say. It's not because of her medicine that I can wake up. The medicine she gave you has been treated. If I rely on her medicine, I won't be able to get better for a year or two. She's fine too. Use this medicine to control you and me."

Renzong was shocked: "That, that——"

"The medicine I took was given by Ji Zhao. You also know that Doctor Bai of Ji Zhao. He was the one who provided the prescription for the plague in Meizhou." Zongzhen continued, "Father, until now, I There is nothing to hide or worry about, the reason why I didn't tell you before is because Fu Chen and Ji Zhao have not yet reconciled, and after reconciling, I have not had time to talk about these things again."

Renzong was stunned, looking at Zongzhen for a long time and dared not speak.

Zong Zhen also looked at him and nodded: "Yes, it's Ji Zhao, the person I like is Ji Zhao."

Renzong took a sharp breath, and after a while, he said, "You, you are robbing your sister, robbing someone!"

Zong Zhen was stunned, and suddenly laughed out loud.

He never thought that at this moment, what his father cares most about is actually this!

"How could this be so?!" Renzong was crying, mixed with anger, "I just find it strange that the two children, Fu Chen and brother Zhao, are living a good life and have such a good relationship, so why are they suddenly reconciled? ! Ji Chongjin is also a cover! You, how can you do that!"

Zongzhen explained: "Fuchen and Ji Zhao really have no feelings for each other. The marriage between me and my father was insisted on at the beginning. The relationship between Fuchen and Ji Chongjin is also true."

"real?!"

"Father, I can swear on my life."

Renzong didn't speak after hearing this, and murmured after a while: "No wonder this child wants to leave! It's all my fault, I trust others easily!"

"It's not my father's fault, it's indeed Liu Yun's antidote that helped me delay for a few days."

"Then, do you know where that child went?"

Zong Zhen shook his head: "I don't know..."

Renzong sighed: "Then how to find it?"

"You can't just stop looking because it's hard to find? You'll find it one day."

Renzong looked at him again, looked at him for a long time, sighed again, and finally nodded and said: "You go, pay attention to your body on the way, if you really can't find it, come back, let's think about something together."

"it is good……"

"Oh, you go."

Zongzhen saluted, turned to leave, and asked, "Father, Ji Zhao is a man, and I am also a man. We will not have children, and I don't intend to get close to others."

Renzong waved his hand: "Before your mother left, she took my hand and said that she only wanted you, brother and sister, to be safe and happy. You are a prince and a princess. You seem to be noble, but you are born to bear great pressure. How can you be real?" Peace and joy, where I can give, I will try my best to give you everything. As for the child, alas, when you were young, you were in poor health, and you were almost unable to be rescued several times. Your mother felt ashamed of her ancestors and feared that no one would inherit the country. Advise me to choose my concubine.

I am not expected to be an emperor, but because of my son-in-law's birth, I was able to be crowned prince without any pain or disaster, and then inherit this country. I have no talent, so I can only bite the bullet and sit on this dragon throne.The fate of a person in this life is never clear. The common people envy the emperor, but they don't know that the emperor also envies them?

So what if there are no children?There is never a shortage of clan children, and there are always those who are suitable to be emperors, and they are all descendants of the clan.

In this world, how many close people can we meet?After your mother left, I have dreamed of her in my dreams for many years. For me, this is enough.

At first, I thought you were different from me, but now it seems that you are the same.Some people are destined to love only one person in their life. "

Zong Zhen's eyes were sore from what his father said.

Like his father, he is naturally not a qualified emperor, but as he said, life is different, and missions are different.

Zong Zhen saluted him, raised his head and said, "I will come back as soon as possible."

Renzong smiled: "Naturally, there are still so many important matters in the court that you need to come back to take care of. I am not a good emperor. Fortunately, your mother brought you to this world."

Zong Zhen also smiled, turned around and strode away.

Renzong looked at his back and sighed again.

That day, when he went to Zhuangzi, he saw Ji Zhao sitting on the edge of the bed looking lost, and the two of them clasped their hands. He was a little suspicious, but he didn't dare to think about that. Today, his son came and said so much. Instead, he felt a sense of stability when the dust had settled.

If he stopped, Ji Zhao would be wandering outside without a trace.

What kind of person will Zong Zhen become?

Back then, his father did not allow him to marry the queen because the queen's family background was too low. He clearly knew that feeling. The relationship between his son and Ji Zhao was stronger than they were back then.

People in the world always say that you have to choose one or the other, why can't you have both?

This kind of relationship is not in line with the world. Both children are good children, but they still choose this path together, which shows their determination.

Why did he beat the mandarin ducks?

If the two people's relationship is really so deep, they will never be separated in this life, and they will love each other until they grow old, it will be a good story, and it can be regarded as shocking.

If there is always a separation, there is no need for him to take action.

Who has never been young.

From childhood to adulthood, Zongzhen wandered in the gate of hell countless times. The only hope for the queen and him for his son was to survive.

Now, not only is he living a better life, but he also has someone he likes, with a lot of human touch, and he manages the government so well. The queen is watching from the sky, and he doesn't know how happy he is. In the past, the husband and wife thought that I dare not think about it.

Renzong thought, if you can't be a good emperor, you must be a good father and husband.

Zongzhen returned to the East Palace to find out the "travel agency" plan that Ji Zhao had conceived. He wanted to find the places listed above one by one.

but--

He got up again and took a box from the chest.Inside is a stack of manuscripts, which are the travel notes written by Ji Zhao when he went out in the past two years. Ji Zhao’s writing is scattered, and many of them are even forgotten by himself. I keep a few books at home to read.

Now, he opened the lid, looked at the neat manuscripts, and thought to himself: It's cheaper for others.

He called Cheng Shen over, and ordered: "Give it to the bookstore and print it immediately, signed by Xiao Sazi, and only put it in those small study rooms in the corners. Each state capital can only throw up to ten copies. Everyone who buys this book Everyone needs to record and report to me."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Cheng Shen hurriedly responded, and went to do it later.

Zong Zhen asked Bao Qing to pack his things again, and he started to worry again while sitting. When Ji Zhao left, he took nothing but two people, but took a few travel notes, but I don't know whether it was Ji Zhao who told him to take it, or Dust. Xing and the others took it by hand.

I am also worried, I don't know if they have enough money, what should I do if it is not enough?Ji Zhao is so old, but he has never experienced hardships in life.

Anyway, no matter how you think or worry, when Cheng Shen came back from his work, Bao Qing also packed up his things, took his people with him, and set off directly at night.

Ji Zhao ate, drank, played and played all the way, and finally arrived in Meizhou with Nuannuan. They had a very happy time for more than a month.

On the way, Ji Zhao even recognized the brother-sister relationship with Nuannuan. Nuannuan said that she didn't want to marry. Her mother said that men are dogs and they are not worthy of liking. After she finished speaking, she didn't forget to add: "Brother, you are not a dog!"

Ji Zhao was speechless.

Ji Zhao didn't want to marry either, so the two of them decided that it would be nice for them to just eat, drink and have fun together in the future.

Ji Zhao is not stupid, he doesn't want to be found, even if he goes to Meizhou, he will definitely not dare to hang around the place he visited last time.

Even if he knew that his bamboo bear was there, he didn't dare to take Nuan Nuan there, so the two of them searched for the bamboo bear in the mountains during the day and went back to the city to rest at night.Sometimes they don’t want to look for them during the day, so they just go shopping and eat in Meizhou City. Both of them are book lovers, and they both like to write travel notes and go to bookstores.

The two of them visited all the study rooms in the city, but there were only a few interesting books.

Ji Zhao felt that Meizhou was really good, so he didn't dare to buy a house, so he rented a big house, which was a serious plan to live here.

So he began to think about other things. He first asked Chen Xing how much money they brought out this time.

Does anyone have too much cash at home?Most of them are stored in the bank. Before Dust Star came out, he took everything he could carry with him. In his opinion, it was enough for several years.Dust Star and the others vaguely knew that something big had happened, but they really didn't know what it was.

Chen Xing told Ji Zhao honestly.

Ji Zhao started to worry, he really didn't want to go back, what would he do when he went back?Are you angry at that shameless princess?

The silver is definitely not enough, and he doesn't want to go to the bank to get the silver, wouldn't it be easy to find out?

Thinking of this, Ji Zhao thought of Zongzhen again, but he didn't know if Zongzhen was better.

These days, driven by Nuan Nuan, Ji Zhao, who finally felt better, became depressed again.

Besides, he has settled down in Meizhou for the time being. He has eaten all the things he should shop and eat. He gradually doesn't want to go out anymore and stays in the house all day. One is thinking about Zongzhen, and the other is how to make money. , I think about Zongzhen a little more, or almost always think about Zongzhen.

He counted the days day by day, hoping that Zong Zhen today would be better than yesterday.

He also asked Yin Ming to go out every day to inquire if there was any news about the prince and if there was any news about the war.

Neither news at all.

But Ji Zhao's mood didn't improve because of this. If there is no war, it means that the Liangguo mission agrees to negotiate, so the marriage is about to happen?

Ji Zhao sometimes blames himself, if he hadn't insisted on going to Liangguo back then, Zong Zhen wouldn't have accompanied him, wouldn't have known that shameless princess, and all this wouldn't have happened.

Nuan Nuan came back with a stack of books in her arms, saw him lying on the table in a daze, and walked over and said, "Brother, are you thinking about that dog man of yours again?"

In the past, Ji Zhao explained countless times that he was really not a "dog man"!

But this little girl was too much abused by her mother, and she insisted that all the men in the world are dogs, and he couldn't help it. He sat up reluctantly and asked her: "Where did you go shopping again?"

"I'm going to buy books! A new batch of books has arrived! They are said to be very interesting, do you want to read them?!"

Ji Zhao didn't have the mind to read, he shook his head: "Look..."

"Don't you really want to see it?"

Ji Zhao supported the table and got up, patted her head: "I don't want to read it, you can watch it yourself."

Nuannuan sat down in front of him and read a book, Ji Zhao looked at her, and said in his heart, persuade her to go home in a few days, saying it is the same thing, how can I really let a little girl hang out with him all day, Xiaoyaozi Yu Na Zhongshu must have been very worried, even though he had left a letter at that time.

Thinking of this, Ji Zhao walked into the study, spread out the paper and began to write the letter. After finishing writing, he called Chen Xing in again.

The past two years were not in vain, Chenxing copied a copy of his letter in his own handwriting, and Yin Ming rushed to a nearby state the next day, and mailed the letter to the address where Xiaoyaozi usually received the letter.

Yin Ming found a shop in the neighboring state to collect letters on his behalf, and went to see it every ten days.

The letter was sent out, but there was no response for a long time. A month later, Ji Zhao wrote another letter, but there was still no response.

Ji Zhao was very helpless, and planned to write a letter every half a month in the future, until Nuan Nuan's family came to her.

Nuan Nuan didn't know it, and went to play with Yin Ming twice, and bought a lot of books, but Ji Zhao didn't read them as usual.

He continued to think about ways to make money, and he already had an idea!

That's right, Nuan Nuan is the half-sister who is related to Ji Zhao by blood, and that's right, another girl finally appeared in the Yin family.Yin Ying's departure from Jinling back then was also agreed by the old lady Yin. The Ji family would not let her go, and Yin Ying wanted to reconcile her life or death. She originally planned to go out and return after a few years when Ji Muzhi had a new wife.

As a result, Yin Ying also had adventures along the way. She was born slender, but because of the love of her family, she has always been a lively character. She has lived outside and seen great rivers and mountains and great love in the world. How could she want to come back?Old Mrs. Yin and the others all knew that she gave birth to another child. Yin Ying was afraid that her parents would bring her back, and kept saying that she gave birth to a son...

But Yin Nuannuan is a copy of Yin Ying, her temper is indeed like a boy, bold and bold.

She just followed a stranger like Ji Zhao. When the loyal uncle saw the letter, he rushed to Jinling with the letter.When he arrived at Jinling, Zongzhen had already left, so Yin Ying hurriedly took Uncle Zhong to look for Zongzhen. Zongzhen searched from place to place, and the first place he went to happened to be Xiaoyaozi's home.

Yin Ying and Uncle Zhong had no choice but to go back. After returning, Zong Zhen had already left again!The two of them happened to receive a letter from Ji Zhao, and then went to find Zong Zhen who had gone to nowhere... In short, the three of them struggled a lot, but they still couldn't get in touch, and they didn't give each other the correct information.

Zongzhen searched for nearly two months in the south, but he couldn't find Ji Zhao, so he planned to go to the north to look for him. After passing through Jinling, he went back to deal with some matters, and then went out to continue looking for half a month later.

At this time, I finally got the news that someone bought that handsome book again, and there were not many books printed. In the past two months, when I was in the south, Zong Zhen had already read every one I bought, but it was a pity that none of them were. Ji Zhao.

This time it is Luzhou, which is next door to Meizhou!

Zong Zhen was enlightened, how could he forget this!

He immediately rushed to Luzhou excitedly, and he had a premonition that Ji Zhao must be in Luzhou.

Ji Zhao has not been idle for more than two months. He spends money to hire people to record all the special dishes and wines in restaurants and restaurants in Meizhou City, record their cooking methods and prices, and even ask diners Opinions, because of the large number of people hired, a large pile of paper was recorded in just half a month.

He personally took Chen Xing and Nuan Nuan to sort out these materials from morning to night. He also asked Yin Ming to make him a ruler, draw a table, and copy various data inside.

Seeing the three of them stunned, Ji Zhao felt a little complacent. He used to only think about surviving, so he didn't think of such things.

Now that he is wandering outside, if he doesn't find something for himself to do, he misses Zongzhen every day, wants to cry every day, and sooner or later he will become resentful to his husband. He doesn't like himself like this, and Zongzhen won't like it even more.Maybe they will never be together, and he can't allow himself to become such a person!

Life is much easier now that there is something to do.

On the form he made, the price, name, and evaluation are clear at a glance, which is easy for people to understand.

It happened that Yin Ming went to Luzhou every ten days. Meizhou was separated by mountains all year round, and people outside were also curious, but they were too lazy to come. When Yin Ming went again, he distributed the forms made by Ji Zhao one by one. Someone is interested.
