The two cases finally came to a conclusion.
The case of Xiao Tengyun, the head coach of the Xifeng camp, colluding with foreign enemies was proved to be framed and not punished.
The assassination of Princess Liang for saving Qin Zheng was not deliberate, so the Yu court does not need to bear additional responsibility for this matter.Liang Guo didn't seem to intend to pursue the matter any further, so the case was settled smoothly.
As for the case of Zhou Chu, the former coach of the Xifeng Camp, it was confirmed that Zhou Chu, His Highness the Second Highness, and Ji Wencheng involved in the case at the time were all found guilty of the crimes, and all three were rehabilitated.
Xiao Tengyun, as the person who falsely accused Zhou Chu at that time, was sentenced to beheaded.
From the little emperor, Li Zhan, to the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, all the officials in the court were fined for three months for their negligence, and closed the court for three days to think about their own mistakes.
His Highness the Second Highness and the three children of the Ji family who were implicated were able to regain their freedom...
So far, no one has objected to the case, but it seems that not many people are happy with the result.
Even Ji Qingzhou and Ji Qinglan were not overly excited about the result.
Because everything brought up in the old case is too heavy, and there are too many lives that have died in vain, which can no longer be saved.
All they can do is to look forward and treat their new life well, so as not to live up to their belated innocence.
"I heard from Chi Shaoqing that you spent a lot of money when you brought me out from the Jiaofang Division that day, and the money was all paid out of the prince's account." On the carriage back to Ji's mansion, Ji Qinglan greeted Ji Qingzhou Said: "The matter of this case is settled today, should this account be settled with the imperial court?"
Ji Qingzhou didn't expect that Ji Qinglan was thinking about this at this time, she couldn't help laughing and said: "Are you afraid that the prince will ask us to collect debts?"
"I'm afraid that second brother, you are thin-skinned. Don't be embarrassed to ask the prince. Even if he doesn't demand our debts, after all, he will take advantage of the short-handed and short-sighted people..." Ji Qinglan said: "These tens of thousands of taels of silver It's not a small amount, even if the prince doesn't mention it, we have to make it clear."
Ji Qinglan was quick-witted, and when she saw Ji Qingzhou and Li Zhan together in the Jiaofang Division that day, she guessed that the relationship between the two was probably very close.Now that she has experienced so many things, she is more and more sure of her guess.
Compared with Ji Qingzhou, Li Zhan has a noble status. Even if the two have a deep friendship, Ji Qinglan has to think about her as the second brother.If Ji Qingzhou owed Li Zhan such a big favor because of her affairs, wouldn't Ji Qingzhou be shorter than Li Zhan everywhere in the future?
So she took advantage of this opportunity today to remind Ji Qingzhou to make things clear.
Ji Qingzhou reached out to lift the curtain of the carriage, and asked Chizhou who was riding beside him: "Chi Shaoqing, you are from Dali Temple, you should know something about these things, right? , will the imperial court compensate us?"
"Don't worry, Young Master Ji, didn't the prince say in the court today that since the Ji family has been wronged, the court should try its best to make up for it." Chi Zhou said, "Whether it is the money or the food and clothing of the Ji family in the future The imperial court will give an explanation."
Ji Qingzhou heard the words and said to Ji Qinglan: "Don't worry this time?"
"The second elder brother saw the prince when he turned around, but remember to explain this matter clearly to him, don't be vague." Ji Qinglan said.
Ji Qingzhou didn't expect that he, a big man, would ask his sister to worry about these things, and he felt ashamed immediately.
In fact, he didn't know Ji Qinglan very well before today, and he didn't know Ji Qinglan's other side until today when he met him in the apse.His younger sister looks weak and gentle, but her temperament is very bright, and she is a tough and courageous person in her bones.
"What you said is that many things still need to be clarified without being vague." Ji Qingzhou raised his eyebrows, and Chao Ji Qinglan said in a serious manner: "These days your food and expenses in Chifu, we can find them when we have time." Chi Shaoqing does the math, after all, this matter is the court's fault and has nothing to do with Chi Shaoqing, and we can't take advantage of Chi Shaoqing."
Ji Qinglan couldn't help but blushed when she heard the words, and then she said: "I don't live and eat for nothing in the Chi Mansion. I have been taking care of the gardens in the Chi Mansion for the past few months, and I will return them to Chi Shaoqing when I have time." Made two pairs of boots, sewed a suit..."
"That's it..." Ji Qingzhou pretended to ponder deeply for a moment and then said: "Then this account is not easy to settle."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chizhou outside the carriage said through the curtain: "Young Master Ji, don't make fun of Chi."
Hearing this, Ji Qingzhou lifted the curtain of the car, and said to Chizhou: "By the way, I remember that when we left the palace, the prince ordered Commander Gu to escort us, and also sent people from the Ministry of Industry to repair Ji's mansion. Why did Chi Shaoqing follow him?" Come here?"
"Chi... along the way." Chizhou coughed lightly.
"Oh..." Ji Qingzhou saw that he was a little embarrassed, so he stopped joking, put down the curtain and went back to the car honestly.
Ji Qinglan was also quite quiet now, she sat beside her and didn't speak anymore.
The two siblings rode a carriage all the way to Ji's Mansion. Gu Yiheng led the imperial guards into the mansion to check around, and then invited the two to get off the carriage.
Ji's mansion has been abandoned for nearly a year, and the grass in the yard has reached its knees.
Ji Qingzhou stood at the gate of the mansion and took a look in, feeling a little emotional in his heart.
The Ji family has been rehabilitated, but everything can't go back.
"Young Master Ji, Miss Ji..." Chizhou said to the two: "My lord ordered someone to make tablets for Taifu Ji and Lingtang overnight, please invite the tablets of the two elders in."
Ji Qingzhou and Ji Qinglan were both taken aback when they heard the words, a little surprised.According to the rules, the convicted person is not allowed to have a tablet to enshrine after death. I didn't expect Li Zhan to be so thoughtful. Otherwise, after the two brothers and sisters return to the mansion, they will probably have to deal with these things again, which will inevitably hurt their spirits.
Among the people who came together, there were people from the Ministry of Industry. They were quick with their hands and feet, and they cleaned up the ancestral hall of the Ji Mansion in just a moment.
Ji Qingzhou and Ji Qinglan offered incense for the two elders together, and Chizhou and Gu Yiheng who came with them also offered incense sticks.
"I hope my father and mother can bless my brother to come back safely." Ji Qingzhou said and bowed to the tablet of the two elders.
Ji Qinghuai and Tu Dayou have no news so far, but Ji Qingzhou firmly believes that no news is the best news.
As long as the bodies of the two are not found, everything is possible.
Li Zhan sent Ji Qingzhou back to the mansion, but he didn't go with him.
Because after coming down from court today, the little emperor has been in a very depressed mood.
The little emperor's actions in the court hall had not been communicated with Li Zhan beforehand, and they were all based on his own wishes.This surprised Li Zhan, but at the same time, he felt distressed.
Although the first emperor was the little emperor's father, and all these things he did were nominally for the little emperor, both Li Zhan and Ji Qingzhou knew that this matter had nothing to do with the little emperor.The responsibility of the first emperor should not be borne by the little emperor.
But the little emperor is very smart, although he can't fully understand what happened in the court today, he still understands half of it.
His mind was delicate and sensitive, and it was impossible for him to remain indifferent to the wrong things his father had done.
"It was the father who killed Eunuch Ji's father..." The little emperor sat on the stone steps outside the Fu'an Palace with a gloomy expression on his face, "The second emperor's uncle was also imprisoned by the father, and the father also killed Commander Zhou. "
Sitting beside him, Li Zhan rubbed his head with his hands, and said, "He has made many mistakes."
"Uncle Huang, do you hate your father?" the little emperor asked.
"He made many mistakes and did many things right." Li Zhan said, "He killed innocent people in vain, and he also saved many people."
"I don't understand, is the father a good person or a bad person?" the little emperor asked.
Li Zhan thought for a while and said, "Sometimes a person can't be simply defined by good or bad. Cong'er, you are still young, and you still have a lot to learn in the future. I hope you can firmly grasp what happened today. Keep it in your heart, after you take power in the future, if you hold someone else's life in your hands, I hope you can think about how you feel at this moment."
The little emperor nodded solemnly when he heard the words, his face was full of "melancholy".
Li Zhan reached out and pinched his cheek, and said, "Go, I'll take you to a place."
"Are you going to see Eunuch Ji?" the little emperor asked.
"He is no longer a servant, and will move back to the Ji Mansion." Li Zhan said, "Do you want to visit his house?"
The little emperor pursed his lips and said, "He won't like me anymore..."
"That's not necessarily the case." Li Zhan said, "I don't think he's a person who would blame others."
The little emperor looked a little better when he heard the words, and asked cautiously: "Then what should I call him when I see him?"
"This..." Li Zhan thought for a moment, but this question stumped him.
"I see!" the little emperor said suddenly.
Li Zhan watched the little emperor's little face finally fade away from "melancholy" and put on a smirk, and suddenly he had a bad premonition in his heart.
Jifu.
The people from the Ministry of Industry acted quickly, and with the help of people brought by Gu Yiheng, the mansion was quickly tidied up and looked brand new.
"The people from the Ministry of Industry have already registered the things that need to be repaired and purchased, and someone will come to solve them one by one tomorrow." Chizhou Chaoji Qingzhou said: "But after all, the house has been idle for too long, even if it is cleaned up, people suddenly live in it." It will be somewhat inconvenient, but if Young Master Ji and Miss Ji don't dislike it, they can go to my house for a few days to complain, and wait for the people from the Ministry of Industry to arrange everything properly, and it won't be too late for the two of them to move back. "
Ji Qingzhou smiled when he heard the words, and said: "We have accepted Chi Shaoqing's wishes, but now that the case has been closed, Chi Shaoqing should avoid suspicion to some extent. My sister and I should live in our own house, They are not people who can't bear hardships, and they are not so delicate."
Chizhou was startled when he heard the words, a little surprised.
But then he reacted...
In the past, Ji Qinglan lived in his mansion because of his status as Jiaofang Secretary. Now that Ji Qinglan has regained her freedom, it is unreasonable to go to Chi's mansion for a while without knowing why.
Thinking of this, he hastily said: "It's Chi who is being abrupt, so don't blame Young Master Ji and Miss Ji."
"Chi Shaoqing, you don't have to be so polite. You are deeply grateful for the kindness of the Ji family." After Ji Qingzhou said that, he saluted him.
Ji Qinglan stood aside and didn't make a sound. He knew that Ji Qingzhou's words to Chizhou seemed to be polite, but they were actually planning for her.He described Chizhou's friendship with Ji Qinglan as his friendship with Ji's family, and the meaning behind the words is one. This favor can be attributed to him, Ji Qingzhou, not his sister.
This intention is exactly the same as Ji Qinglan's intention to remind him to settle accounts with Li Zhan.
Because Ji Qingzhou probably also saw some clues from Chizhou's attitude, so he hoped that if there was any other possibility for the two of them one day, it would be based on a new relationship instead of being bound by the past.
But he also knew that even if he said so, it would be difficult to do so.
Just like him and Li Zhan, even if he doesn't owe Li Zhan money, can he make it clear?
The fetters that two people have left in each other's lives are simply incomprehensible.
"Young Master Ji, Your Majesty and the prince are here." Gu Yiheng stood in the courtyard and said to Ji Qingzhou.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Li Zhan walking in holding the little emperor's hand.
Seeing this, everyone in the courtyard hurriedly bowed to the two of them.
Then, behind the two of them, several servants and guards came in, all of them carrying boxes in their hands.
"My lord ordered someone to buy some daily necessities, and some that you are used to in Yinghui Pavilion, so I brought them here together." Xiaoshan followed Guozi, neither of them wore inner uniforms, but Wearing casual clothes, Xiao Shan directed the people to carry the box in, and said: "Your Majesty, benevolent, release me and Guo Zi from the palace, and we will serve in the Ji Mansion from now on."
Ji Qingzhou was startled when he heard the words, and looked at Li Zhan, who was also looking at him.
The eyes of the two separated immediately, but Ji Qingzhou's heartbeat still couldn't stop speeding up a lot.
"My king and His Majesty are here to ask Young Master Ji and Miss Ji for a cup of tea." Li Zhan said.
Ji Qingzhou bowed slightly to the two of them, and said, "Please..."
Xiaoshan and Guozi immediately took out the teapot and tea leaves they had just brought from the box, while Dong Dong fetched water and came back, and everyone began to make tea.After a lapse of nearly a year, the kitchen of the Ji Mansion was finally filled with fireworks again...
Although everything is different, the living will always move on.
In the front hall, the little emperor put the food box he had carried all the way in front of Ji Qingzhou.
On the way, Li Zhan wanted to help him carry it, but he stubbornly refused to let others do it and insisted on carrying it by himself.
"Your Majesty, this is..." Ji Qingzhou took the food box and opened it, only to find a large plate of sugar balls inside.
The little emperor glanced at Ji Qingzhou nervously, and said, "Zhouzhou, this is what I left for you..."
Ji Qingzhou: ...
Li Zhan: ...
The little emperor thought about how to call Ji Qingzhou for a long time. He used to call him Eunuch Ji, but now that Ji Qingzhou is no longer a servant, he can't continue to call him that.But he called others, and felt that the relationship was too far away, and it was the same as other people's names, so he couldn't tell the difference.
Just like Li Zhan would call him "Cong Er", that address is full of intimacy.
So after thinking about it, the little emperor came up with such a title, which is neither unfamiliar nor catchy.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Ji Qingzhou didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he reached out and pinched a sugar ball and put it in his mouth.
Seeing this, the little emperor breathed a sigh of relief. In his opinion, Ji Qingzhou is his friend after eating his sugar ball.
Uncle Huang was right, Zhou Zhou would not hate the late Emperor because of his mistakes.
The little emperor was a little restrained when facing Ji Qingzhou at first, but he soon found that Ji Qingzhou's attitude towards him hadn't changed at all from before.Even if he is not in the palace but in Ji's mansion now, Ji Qingzhou did not show any sense of unfamiliarity with him.
As a result, the little emperor gradually returned to normal in front of Ji Qingzhou.
Chizhou didn't stay long in Ji Mansion, so he left soon.
Ji Qinglan also knew it well, exchanged some pleasantries with Li Zhan and then withdrew.
Soon there were only Li Zhan, Ji Qingzhou and the little emperor left in the hall.
"The king asked Dong Dong to pick some useful people to place in your mansion, and the nursing home should be enough." Li Zhan said to Ji Qingzhou: "Later, I will arrange a few more female envoys to come over to take care of Miss Ji. "
Ji Qingzhou thanked him hurriedly.
It has to be said that Li Zhan is more careful than Ji Qingzhou imagined in many things. Even he himself ignored the matter of arranging a maid for Ji Qinglan, but Li Zhan still took it to heart.
"One more thing, I want to ask you what you mean." Li Zhan looked up at Ji Qingzhou and said.
Ji Qingzhou hurriedly said: "My lord, please tell me."
"The case is closed. I want to visit the imperial tomb in person." Li Zhan said.
Ji Qingzhou was startled when he heard the words, and realized that Li Zhan wanted to go to the imperial mausoleum to pick up His Highness the Second Highness back to the capital.
"I wonder if you... would like to go with me?" Li Zhan asked.
Ji Qingzhou didn't expect that Li Zhan planned to take him to the imperial mausoleum. He was a little puzzled at once, but he nodded in agreement.
So, in the afternoon of that day, Ji Qingzhou accompanied Li Zhan to the imperial mausoleum in the suburbs of Beijing.
The little emperor was also there.
The little emperor's mood was ups and downs today, and he was a little tired at the moment, so he fell asleep leaning against Li Zhan's arms in the carriage.
Seeing that Li Zhan was full of worries, Ji Qingzhou knew that he probably had other considerations for letting him come with him.
"Actually, my king sent people to the imperial tomb a few days ago, thinking that since the case has some clues, he should let the second brother know about it." Li Zhan said, "But he doesn't want to leave the imperial tomb..."
"Why?" Ji Qingzhou asked in surprise.
"Second brother is very stubborn, that's why the late emperor was afraid of him." Li Zhan said, "After Commander Zhou and your father had an accident, second brother fell seriously ill, and he hasn't recovered yet."
His Highness the Second Highness has a strong temper and is not as transparent as Li Zhan. After what happened back then, he became depressed.
In the previous life, His Highness the Second Highness fell ill in the imperial mausoleum, and died of depression not long after.
This is also one of the reasons why Li Zhan wants to overturn the case after living again...
"He and your father were old friends. At that time, your father was innocent because he interceded for him. I thought that if I took you to see him, maybe I could make him feel relieved." Li Zhan said : "Just to work hard for you to travel with me..."
Ji Qingzhou said: "The things that happened back then have already ruined the lives of too many people. I think if my father has a spirit in heaven, he would definitely hope to see His Highness the Second Highness come out. Although what happened can no longer be made up for, But in the end, the fewer people involved, the better, my father and Commander Zhou have no chance, but the Second Highness is different."
Li Zhan nodded. Seeing his gloomy expression, Ji Qingzhou reached out and patted the back of his hand lightly.
Ji Qingzhou's hand was quickly withdrawn, Li Zhan's face remained calm, but inadvertently covered the back of the other hand that the other party had just patted with his other hand.
The carriage traveled slowly all the way, and arrived outside the imperial mausoleum before dusk.
The imperial mausoleum of the Yu Dynasty was very grand. The garden outside is very spacious. To enter from the entrance, you have to walk a long way through the garden, and then you need to go through a long staircase to reach the center of the mausoleum.
The place where the Second Highness lives in the cemetery is conveniently there, very close to the tomb.
Ji Qingzhou walked in the cemetery with Li Zhan, only to feel that the place was empty, and wondered why the Second Highness died here in depression.Not to mention people who have suffered psychological trauma, even if a healthy person is thrown here for a year or so, he will probably get sick.
In such a big place, apart from the Second Highness, there are only guards and guards.
The guards can still be on duty, but the Second Highness wants to guard here alone...
Whoever it is, I'm afraid they won't live for too long!
"This road is too long, I will carry you up." Li Zhan stood in front of the stairs and said to Ji Qingzhou.
Ji Qingzhou secretly thought, are you afraid of squeezing my stomach if you carry me behind your back?
"No, I can go." Ji Qingzhou said.
The little emperor stretched out his hand to hold Ji Qingzhou, and said to Li Zhan, "Uncle Emperor, I can go too."
Li Zhan frowned when he heard the words, and regretted bringing Ji Qingzhou here.
Before he came, he completely forgot about this road. In addition, the carriage could not enter, and they had already walked a long way from the entrance to here. He was really worried about letting Ji Qingzhou follow him up such a ladder.
"Or..." Li Zhan said, wanting to ask Ji Qingzhou to wait below.
But after thinking about it again, he felt worried that people were not under his nose.
Ji Qingzhou saw his entanglement, and said: "Let's go, it will be dark if you delay."
After Ji Qingzhou finished speaking, he led the little emperor towards the stairs, and Li Zhan had to follow behind anxiously.
In fact, although the ladder is a little longer, it is very gentle, and Ji Qingzhou does not feel strenuous when walking.
At most, after walking halfway, I was a little out of breath.
On the contrary, the little emperor was a little tired, so he could only grab Ji Qingzhou's hand for the second half of the journey.
Seeing this, Li Zhan leaned over and hugged the little emperor, lest he drag Ji Qingzhou down.
Afterwards, Li Zhan hesitated for a moment, and took Ji Qingzhou with his other hand.
Ji Qingzhou's slightly slender hands were wrapped by Li Zhan's generous palms. The touch made the young man's heart beat a little faster, but he was only stunned for a moment, but he didn't pull his hands back.
Li Zhan's wide robe sleeves hung down, covering the hands they held together.
Ji Qingzhou glanced at Li Zhan's side face secretly, and his heart moved slightly. The hand held by Li Zhan quietly changed its posture, and then clasped Li Zhan's fingers with his own.
As the cool autumn breeze blew by, Li Zhan's robe sleeves flew up, revealing the ten fingers of the two tightly clasped under the sleeves...
The little emperor put his arms around Li Zhan's neck and leaned on Li Zhan's shoulders. His eyes stayed on the fingers of the two of them for a moment, and then he couldn't help but smiled at Ji Qingzhou.It was the first time for Ji Qingzhou to hold hands with Li Zhan, and he was a little awkward when he was smiled by the little emperor. He was about to withdraw his hand, but he felt that Li Zhan's hand was stronger, and he held him tighter.
"Why are you ashamed?" The little emperor smiled at Ji Qingzhou, "The emperor's uncle often leads me like this, and I'm not ashamed."
Ji Qingzhou didn't feel shy at first, but it was awkward to hold hands with Li Zhan for the first time, but now he was suddenly pointed out by the little emperor, and his face suddenly became hot.
After laughing at him, the little emperor turned to look at Li Zhan, and then, as if he had discovered something new, he said, "Uncle Huang is secretly laughing..."
Li Zhan: ...
Ji Qingzhou: ...

Li Zhan thought for a while and said, "Sometimes a person can't be simply defined by good or bad. Cong'er, you are still young, and you still have a lot to learn in the future. I hope you can firmly grasp what happened today. Keep it in your heart, after you take power in the future, if you hold someone else's life in your hands, I hope you can think about how you feel at this moment."
The little emperor nodded solemnly when he heard the words, his face was full of "melancholy".
Li Zhan reached out and pinched his cheek, and said, "Go, I'll take you to a place."
"Are you going to see Eunuch Ji?" the little emperor asked.
"He is no longer a servant, and will move back to the Ji Mansion." Li Zhan said, "Do you want to visit his house?"
The little emperor pursed his lips and said, "He won't like me anymore..."
"That's not necessarily the case." Li Zhan said, "I don't think he's a person who would blame others."
The little emperor looked a little better when he heard the words, and asked cautiously: "Then what should I call him when I see him?"
"This..." Li Zhan thought for a moment, but this question stumped him.
"I see!" the little emperor said suddenly.
Li Zhan watched the little emperor's little face finally fade away from "melancholy" and put on a smirk, and suddenly he had a bad premonition in his heart.
Jifu.
The people from the Ministry of Industry acted quickly, and with the help of people brought by Gu Yiheng, the mansion was quickly tidied up and looked brand new.
"The people from the Ministry of Industry have already registered the things that need to be repaired and purchased, and someone will come to solve them one by one tomorrow." Chizhou Chaoji Qingzhou said: "But after all, the house has been idle for too long, even if it is cleaned up, people suddenly live in it." It will be somewhat inconvenient, but if Young Master Ji and Miss Ji don't dislike it, they can go to my house for a few days to complain, and wait for the people from the Ministry of Industry to arrange everything properly, and it won't be too late for the two of them to move back. "
Ji Qingzhou smiled when he heard the words, and said: "We have accepted Chi Shaoqing's wishes, but now that the case has been closed, Chi Shaoqing should avoid suspicion to some extent. My sister and I should live in our own house, They are not people who can't bear hardships, and they are not so delicate."
Chizhou was startled when he heard the words, a little surprised.
But then he reacted...
In the past, Ji Qinglan lived in his mansion because of his status as Jiaofang Secretary. Now that Ji Qinglan has regained her freedom, it is unreasonable to go to Chi's mansion for a while without knowing why.
Thinking of this, he hastily said: "It's Chi who is being abrupt, so don't blame Young Master Ji and Miss Ji."
"Chi Shaoqing, you don't have to be so polite. You are deeply grateful for the kindness of the Ji family." After Ji Qingzhou said that, he saluted him.
Ji Qinglan stood aside and didn't make a sound. He knew that Ji Qingzhou's words to Chizhou seemed to be polite, but they were actually planning for her.He described Chizhou's friendship with Ji Qinglan as his friendship with Ji's family, and the meaning behind the words is one. This favor can be attributed to him, Ji Qingzhou, not his sister.
This intention is exactly the same as Ji Qinglan's intention to remind him to settle accounts with Li Zhan.
Because Ji Qingzhou probably also saw some clues from Chizhou's attitude, so he hoped that if there was any other possibility for the two of them one day, it would be based on a new relationship instead of being bound by the past.
But he also knew that even if he said so, it would be difficult to do so.
Just like him and Li Zhan, even if he doesn't owe Li Zhan money, can he make it clear?
The fetters that two people have left in each other's lives are simply incomprehensible.
"Young Master Ji, Your Majesty and the prince are here." Gu Yiheng stood in the courtyard and said to Ji Qingzhou.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Li Zhan walking in holding the little emperor's hand.
Seeing this, everyone in the courtyard hurriedly bowed to the two of them.
Then, behind the two of them, several servants and guards came in, all of them carrying boxes in their hands.
"My lord ordered someone to buy some daily necessities, and some that you are used to in Yinghui Pavilion, so I brought them here together." Xiaoshan followed Guozi, neither of them wore inner uniforms, but Wearing casual clothes, Xiao Shan directed the people to carry the box in, and said: "Your Majesty, benevolent, release me and Guo Zi from the palace, and we will serve in the Ji Mansion from now on."
Ji Qingzhou was startled when he heard the words, and looked at Li Zhan, who was also looking at him.
The eyes of the two separated immediately, but Ji Qingzhou's heartbeat still couldn't stop speeding up a lot.
"My king and His Majesty are here to ask Young Master Ji and Miss Ji for a cup of tea." Li Zhan said.
Ji Qingzhou bowed slightly to the two of them, and said, "Please..."
Xiaoshan and Guozi immediately took out the teapot and tea leaves they had just brought from the box, while Dong Dong fetched water and came back, and everyone began to make tea.After a lapse of nearly a year, the kitchen of the Ji Mansion was finally filled with fireworks again...
Although everything is different, the living will always move on.
In the front hall, the little emperor put the food box he had carried all the way in front of Ji Qingzhou.
On the way, Li Zhan wanted to help him carry it, but he stubbornly refused to let others do it and insisted on carrying it by himself.
"Your Majesty, this is..." Ji Qingzhou took the food box and opened it, only to find a large plate of sugar balls inside.
The little emperor glanced at Ji Qingzhou nervously, and said, "Zhouzhou, this is what I left for you..."
Ji Qingzhou: ...
Li Zhan: ...
The little emperor thought about how to call Ji Qingzhou for a long time. He used to call him Eunuch Ji, but now that Ji Qingzhou is no longer a servant, he can't continue to call him that.But he called others, and felt that the relationship was too far away, and it was the same as other people's names, so he couldn't tell the difference.
Just like Li Zhan would call him "Cong Er", that address is full of intimacy.
So after thinking about it, the little emperor came up with such a title, which is neither unfamiliar nor catchy.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Ji Qingzhou didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he reached out and pinched a sugar ball and put it in his mouth.
Seeing this, the little emperor breathed a sigh of relief. In his opinion, Ji Qingzhou is his friend after eating his sugar ball.
Uncle Huang was right, Zhou Zhou would not hate the late Emperor because of his mistakes.
The little emperor was a little restrained when facing Ji Qingzhou at first, but he soon found that Ji Qingzhou's attitude towards him hadn't changed at all from before.Even if he is not in the palace but in Ji's mansion now, Ji Qingzhou did not show any sense of unfamiliarity with him.
As a result, the little emperor gradually returned to normal in front of Ji Qingzhou.
Chizhou didn't stay long in Ji Mansion, so he left soon.
Ji Qinglan also knew it well, exchanged some pleasantries with Li Zhan and then withdrew.
Soon there were only Li Zhan, Ji Qingzhou and the little emperor left in the hall.
"The king asked Dong Dong to pick some useful people to place in your mansion, and the nursing home should be enough." Li Zhan said to Ji Qingzhou: "Later, I will arrange a few more female envoys to come over to take care of Miss Ji. "
Ji Qingzhou thanked him hurriedly.
It has to be said that Li Zhan is more careful than Ji Qingzhou imagined in many things. Even he himself ignored the matter of arranging a maid for Ji Qinglan, but Li Zhan still took it to heart.
"One more thing, I want to ask you what you mean." Li Zhan looked up at Ji Qingzhou and said.
Ji Qingzhou hurriedly said: "My lord, please tell me."
"The case is closed. I want to visit the imperial tomb in person." Li Zhan said.
Ji Qingzhou was startled when he heard the words, and realized that Li Zhan wanted to go to the imperial mausoleum to pick up His Highness the Second Highness back to the capital.
"I wonder if you... would like to go with me?" Li Zhan asked.
Ji Qingzhou didn't expect that Li Zhan planned to take him to the imperial mausoleum. He was a little puzzled at once, but he nodded in agreement.
So, in the afternoon of that day, Ji Qingzhou accompanied Li Zhan to the imperial mausoleum in the suburbs of Beijing.
The little emperor was also there.
The little emperor's mood was ups and downs today, and he was a little tired at the moment, so he fell asleep leaning against Li Zhan's arms in the carriage.
Seeing that Li Zhan was full of worries, Ji Qingzhou knew that he probably had other considerations for letting him come with him.
"Actually, my king sent people to the imperial tomb a few days ago, thinking that since the case has some clues, he should let the second brother know about it." Li Zhan said, "But he doesn't want to leave the imperial tomb..."
"Why?" Ji Qingzhou asked in surprise.
"Second brother is very stubborn, that's why the late emperor was afraid of him." Li Zhan said, "After Commander Zhou and your father had an accident, second brother fell seriously ill, and he hasn't recovered yet."
His Highness the Second Highness has a strong temper and is not as transparent as Li Zhan. After what happened back then, he became depressed.
In the previous life, His Highness the Second Highness fell ill in the imperial mausoleum, and died of depression not long after.
This is also one of the reasons why Li Zhan wants to overturn the case after living again...
"He and your father were old friends. At that time, your father was innocent because he interceded for him. I thought that if I took you to see him, maybe I could make him feel relieved." Li Zhan said : "Just to work hard for you to travel with me..."
Ji Qingzhou said: "The things that happened back then have already ruined the lives of too many people. I think if my father has a spirit in heaven, he would definitely hope to see His Highness the Second Highness come out. Although what happened can no longer be made up for, But in the end, the fewer people involved, the better, my father and Commander Zhou have no chance, but the Second Highness is different."
Li Zhan nodded. Seeing his gloomy expression, Ji Qingzhou reached out and patted the back of his hand lightly.
Ji Qingzhou's hand was quickly withdrawn, Li Zhan's face remained calm, but inadvertently covered the back of the other hand that the other party had just patted with his other hand.
The carriage traveled slowly all the way, and arrived outside the imperial mausoleum before dusk.
The imperial mausoleum of the Yu Dynasty was very grand. The garden outside is very spacious. To enter from the entrance, you have to walk a long way through the garden, and then you need to go through a long staircase to reach the center of the mausoleum.
The place where the Second Highness lives in the cemetery is conveniently there, very close to the tomb.
Ji Qingzhou walked in the cemetery with Li Zhan, only to feel that the place was empty, and wondered why the Second Highness died here in depression.Not to mention people who have suffered psychological trauma, even if a healthy person is thrown here for a year or so, he will probably get sick.
In such a big place, apart from the Second Highness, there are only guards and guards.
The guards can still be on duty, but the Second Highness wants to guard here alone...
Whoever it is, I'm afraid they won't live for too long!
"This road is too long, I will carry you up." Li Zhan stood in front of the stairs and said to Ji Qingzhou.
Ji Qingzhou secretly thought, are you afraid of squeezing my stomach if you carry me behind your back?
"No, I can go." Ji Qingzhou said.
The little emperor stretched out his hand to hold Ji Qingzhou, and said to Li Zhan, "Uncle Emperor, I can go too."
Li Zhan frowned when he heard the words, and regretted bringing Ji Qingzhou here.
Before he came, he completely forgot about this road. In addition, the carriage could not enter, and they had already walked a long way from the entrance to here. He was really worried about letting Ji Qingzhou follow him up such a ladder.
"Or..." Li Zhan said, wanting to ask Ji Qingzhou to wait below.
But after thinking about it again, he felt worried that people were not under his nose.
Ji Qingzhou saw his entanglement, and said: "Let's go, it will be dark if you delay."
After Ji Qingzhou finished speaking, he led the little emperor towards the stairs, and Li Zhan had to follow behind anxiously.
In fact, although the ladder is a little longer, it is very gentle, and Ji Qingzhou does not feel strenuous when walking.
At most, after walking halfway, I was a little out of breath.
On the contrary, the little emperor was a little tired, so he could only grab Ji Qingzhou's hand for the second half of the journey.
Seeing this, Li Zhan leaned over and hugged the little emperor, lest he drag Ji Qingzhou down.
Afterwards, Li Zhan hesitated for a moment, and took Ji Qingzhou with his other hand.
Ji Qingzhou's slightly slender hands were wrapped by Li Zhan's generous palms. The touch made the young man's heart beat a little faster, but he was only stunned for a moment, but he didn't pull his hands back.
Li Zhan's wide robe sleeves hung down, covering the hands they held together.
Ji Qingzhou glanced at Li Zhan's side face secretly, and his heart moved slightly. The hand held by Li Zhan quietly changed its posture, and then clasped Li Zhan's fingers with his own.
As the cool autumn breeze blew by, Li Zhan's robe sleeves flew up, revealing the ten fingers of the two tightly clasped under the sleeves...
The little emperor put his arms around Li Zhan's neck and leaned on Li Zhan's shoulders. His eyes stayed on the fingers of the two of them for a moment, and then he couldn't help but smiled at Ji Qingzhou.It was the first time for Ji Qingzhou to hold hands with Li Zhan, and he was a little awkward when he was smiled by the little emperor. He was about to withdraw his hand, but he felt that Li Zhan's hand was stronger, and he held him tighter.
"Why are you ashamed?" The little emperor smiled at Ji Qingzhou, "The emperor's uncle often leads me like this, and I'm not ashamed."
Ji Qingzhou didn't feel shy at first, but it was awkward to hold hands with Li Zhan for the first time, but now he was suddenly pointed out by the little emperor, and his face suddenly became hot.
After laughing at him, the little emperor turned to look at Li Zhan, and then, as if he had discovered something new, he said, "Uncle Huang is secretly laughing..."
Li Zhan: ...
Ji Qingzhou: ...
