Return to the Song Dynasty

Chapter 7 The Secret Discovered

It's coming to New Year's Day again, and it's a new year. Zhao Yu looked at the little bits of snow falling outside the window, and watched a group of eunuchs and maids busy pruning the plum trees.That's right, it has been more than half a year since I lived in the Ningshou Palace of the Empress Dowager.

Originally, Zhao Bi had already discussed with Wu Zhaoyuan. In the past few years, Zhao Bi has continued to gradually regain his sanity. It is not a problem to always pretend to be stupid, but it should not be too sudden, take it slowly, and not attract attention.

Wu Zhaoyuan passed away suddenly. Although Zhao Yu hated her, she did not dare to act rashly. If she suddenly behaved abnormally at this time, it would definitely bring disaster.Zhao Bi had no choice but to continue to carry out the plan to gradually restore his sanity, waiting for the opportunity, but lost the company of his mother, the process seemed too long, too long... One day...

"Meow~" A meow interrupted Zhao Bi's contemplation, and a fat round black cat had already sprinted onto Zhao Bi's couch with ease, posed in a sprawling pose, lay down, and began to sleep.

"..." Zhao Bi was speechless. Ever since he moved to Liu Yunxuan in Ningshou Palace, this black cat has been visiting from time to time. Every time he is like the uncle, he sleeps when he comes, or catches up with Zhao Bi. When eating, they follow the meal, and they are not afraid of people at all. The court ladies and eunuchs have tried to catch it, but this cat is too agile, and every time the court ladies and eunuchs turn their backs, the big fat cat is lying lazily On the couch, gently wagging the tip of his tail.

That way, people will get angry no matter how they look at it.At that time, Zhao Bi had just lost his mother and was depressed every day. Everyone was happy to have an interesting kitten to make Zhao Bi angry.

Zhao Bi also thought the black cat was weird and interesting, but where did the black cat come from in this palace?After inquiring, I found out that the black cat belonged to Zhao Ji Palace.

Zhao Ji's uncle, Chen Liang, probably heard Chen Zhaoyi say that Zhao Ji was always taciturn, so he wanted to give his eldest nephew a pet to make him happy. Originally, he spent a lot of effort to find a pure white Persian cat, maybe There was a mistake on the way to the palace, and it turned into this big black fat cat in the palace.

I heard that Zhao Ji's uncle was so angry that he jumped his feet, but fortunately Zhao Ji liked the cat very much, so he was wrong, so he kept it like this.

It seems that not long after entering the palace, the cat started running to Zhao Bi's Liuyun Pavilion from time to time, eating, drinking, and even rubbing the bed.

Later, Zhao Bi learned that the cat belonged to Zhao Ji, and asked Zhao Ji to send someone to pick it up, but every time Zhao Ji came to the door in person, eating and drinking with his cat. Fuer, who really raises such a cat.

Later, when Zhao Ji came to find Zhao Bi again, he would bring the cat with him, and Zhao Bi didn't bother to care about it.

Now that the cat is here, Zhao Ji is not far away. Today, seeing the cat come and sleep, Zhao Ji probably will stay in Liuyunxuan for a long time.

"Brother Nine Emperors, why do you seem unhappy that my younger brother is here?" Zhao Ji was in a great mood seeing Zhao Bi staring at the black cat and gnashing his teeth.

"No, this hall is very happy that the eleventh brother came to visit." Zhao Bi gritted his teeth and replied.

"Really? Why does my brother feel that the emperor's answer is so reluctant."

"Damn chick, you can't finish, I think you are itchy, don't you?" Zhao Bi rolled up his sleeves and made a gesture to hit Zhao Ji.

"Ah, how can you do it, Brother Huang? The teacher taught me that a gentleman uses his mouth, but not his hands." Zhao Ji hurriedly avoided Zhao Bi's claws.

"Then you want me to bite you? How can you make such a request? You are a well-read poet, ah, the world is going down..." Zhao Bi swooped, and the two brothers rolled into a ball.

"Meow~" The black cat cast a contemptuous glance at the two naive brothers, and then went to sleep on its own.

Outside the door, Li Lin and Jinse had already sent away the other court ladies and eunuchs, and they were the only two guarding the door.

Jinse began to feel that His Royal Highness Jiu was different on the day Wu Zhaoyuan died, but she didn't ask rashly, and she didn't dare to mention it to anyone.

She and Jinxiu were originally Wu Zhaoyuan's maidservants, and they grew up with Wu Zhaoyuan, so their relationship is naturally extraordinary.Later Wu Zhaoyuan entered the palace, and they also entered the palace together, and became the big maids beside Wu Zhaoyuan.Now that the empress is gone, she has to protect the little Highness.

——Falling into the dividing line of memories——

Not long after Wu Zhaoyuan was buried, she, Jinxiu, and Li Lin moved to Liuyunxuan with Zhao Bi.Only Ruozhu, Ruolan and other palace people were left in Yinghua Palace.

Jinxiu was puzzled by the fact that Zhao Bi asked Jinxiu and Jinse to move to Liuyunxuan instead of Ruozhu and Ruolan who usually served Zhao Bi.Although being able to follow His Highness Ninth Prince is of course much better than staying in Yinghua Palace, and they really want to be with His Highness, but they are Wu Zhaoyuan's court ladies, and they are not serving His Highness, so why would His Highness want to take them away?

Jinxiu couldn't figure it out, and even mentioned it to Jinse in private.Jinse understood somewhat in her heart, but this was just a conjecture, and she did not dare to explain it to Jinxiu rashly.

Sure enough, not long after, Zhao Bi acted.

One afternoon, when it was supposed to be time for Zhao Bi to take a nap, Li Lin suddenly came to see Jinxiu and Jinse, saying that His Highness asked them to go.

As soon as they arrived outside the house, Jinxiu and Jinse found that there were no eunuchs and maids who usually clean up, only Li Lin who sent a message to them.Entering the room, I saw Zhao Bi reading a book on the couch alone, Jinxiu and Jinse quickly saluted, "Well, get up." Zhao Bi put down the book in his hand, looked up at Jinxiu and Jinse.

"What are you doing in a daze? You don't know me?" Zhao Bi looked at Jinxiu and Jinse who were stunned, and slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, you..." Jinxiu finally realized that something was wrong, His Highness was speaking so casually, her eyes, her tone of voice were not at all what a normal silly Highness should look like.

Looking at His Highness's usually silly face, there was such a smile.Jinxiu opened her mouth, but said nothing more.Jinse, who had already guessed a little in her heart, was much calmer and stood there quietly, waiting for His Highness to speak.

"It's been a while since I recovered. Originally, I discussed with my mother and wanted to tell you, but before it was too late, my mother passed away. I know that you all entered the palace with my mother, and you are also the people my mother trusts the most. Now Mother has left us, and only you and I are left in this huge palace."

Zhao Bi walked up to Jinxiu and Jinse, staring at them deeply with big round eyes, even with tears in his eyes, "Will you, are you willing to continue to take care of me and be my reliance?"

Zhao Bi's words successfully touched Jinxiu and Jinse's nerves, thinking that Wu Zhaoyuan treated them like sisters, and now Wu Zhaoyuan died tragically, leaving only a little Highness helpless.How could they not repay their kindness, the little Highness is so pitiful now, he dare not let others know when he regained his sanity, seeing the tearful eyes of the Little Highness successfully aroused the beautiful and beautiful motherhood.

"Your Highness, although our sisters are just insignificant maids in this palace, we will do our best to protect His Highness. Our sisters are willing to continue to follow His Highness and take care of His Highness." Jinxiu and Jinse quickly replied, seeing His Highness crying, how pitiful. , don't let His Highness worry.

After so many years, whenever Jinxiu and Jinse recalled that scene back then, they would deeply feel that they were tricked into boarding a pirate ship by His Royal Highness pretending to be pitiful.However, that's all they wanted.

But to say that they knew His Highness's secret was told by His Highness, then His Eleventh Highness knew something wrong, but fortunately, His Eleventh Highness has been on good terms with His Highness since childhood, and has been helping His Highness keep the secret, and let His Highness It is actually a good thing to have one more playmate who can be assured.

In fact, Zhao Ji knew that he knew Zhao Bi's secret was neither an oolong nor a coincidence, it was the result of years of careful observation.Of course, if it wasn't for Wu Zhaoyuan's sudden death, Zhao Bi suffered a huge blow and was restless, so he wouldn't show his feet.

That night was the eve before Zhao Yu was going to leave Yinghua Palace and move to Ningshou Palace. Everyone in the palace lamented that Zhao Yu is a fool who has a foolish blessing. He lost his mother, but in exchange for the protection of the Empress Dowager, isn’t he blessed? .

The empress dowager's protection and love are naturally what one can ask for, but in Zhao Yu's heart, no one can replace his mother. The woman who believed in him unconditionally and loved him left him forever.

Zhao Bi dismissed all the palace people, even Li Lin was driven out by him, and he sat under the peach tree alone holding the jug.This wine is what he wanted to get by acting coquettishly with Wu Zhaoyuan, and Wu Zhaoyuan even laughed at him for being a drunkard at a young age...

"Mom, where are you? Are you cold?... Hiccup, I'm cold, mother, you don't care about me."

"Wuuu~ Mother, why don't you ignore me?"

……

"Mom, look, look, the Milky Way, ahaha, it's such a bright star. Mother, you don't know, I have never seen such a beautiful Milky Way before, I... woooo~ Mother, why don't you answer ?”

Zhao Bi cried for a while and laughed for a while, stumbling around, and basically lying on the ground, he was basically drunk.

This is what Zhao Ji saw when he came in.In fact, Li Lin was originally guarding outside the courtyard, but Liu Yue, the chief eunuch from the Empress Dowager's side, came to him to discuss Zhao Bi's move tomorrow, so he called Li Lin away.

Although Li Lin asked Ruozhu and Ruolan to stand guard outside the courtyard for him, he did not expect Zhao Ji to come, and Ruozhu and the others did not know His Highness's secret, so naturally they would not prevent Zhao Ji from entering the courtyard.As a result, Zhao Ji just walked into Zhao Bi's "secret garden".

"Brother Jiuhuang, Brother Huang, are you okay?" Zhao Ji looked at the lump on the ground, speechless.

'Hey, I'm really bored. What are you doing here at night? I thought Wu Zhaoyuan would be different after his death.It seems that the previous guesses about Brother Nine Emperors were just nonsense.This is clearly a drunk fool.Well, although I know how to drink at the age of 12, I am a little younger. Zhao Ji watched for a long time, but Zhao Bi didn't move. Zhao Ji was about to ask someone to carry him back to the house.

At this moment, Zhao Bi got up suddenly and looked at the moon with drunken eyes.

"When will the bright moon come? Ask the blue sky for wine. I don't know the palace in the sky. What year is it? I want to go back by the wind, but I'm afraid that Qionglou Yuyu will be too cold on the heights. Dance to find out the shadows, why is it like being in the world?

Turn to Zhuge, low Qi household, according to sleepless.There shouldn't be any hatred, what's the matter of long-term goodbye?People have sorrows and joys, and the moon has cloudy and sunny waxes and wanes. This matter has never been complete in ancient times.Nung, moon and new moon. ~~ hiccup"

Under the moonlight, the boy in white was sitting on the peach blossoms all over the ground, looking at the moon alone, the boy sang a beautiful song with an ethereal voice, which made people fascinated.But that "~~ hiccup" really ruined the mood.

Good words, Zhao Ji loved poetry and books since he was a child, this word is definitely a swan song through the ages, although the tune of the word is a bit weird, but the changed tune does not damage the profound artistic conception of this word, and even adds more emotion.

'Brother Nine Emperors, I'm about to give up, but you gave me such a big surprise, what do you want me to do? '
