Chapter 67
Inside the Nuan Pavilion of Jinxiu Pavilion in Wu'an Hou Mansion.

I saw Zhao Zhishan staring out the window in a daze, and slowly said: "Because I'm scared in my heart, I'm afraid that I'll miss this night, maybe in the future, I'll never have a child of Lord Marquis again..."

"In the end, I finally got what I wanted, with Xuan'er." At this moment, Zhao Zhishan's face was filled with a happy smile.

After a while, Zhao Zhishan turned her head to look at Xiao Jinxi, and continued: "Since the day I entered the mansion, I have sent him news according to my father's request. And my father, no, it should be said that it is Emperor Zongyuan. Being a wife, but becoming a concubine, must be unwilling, and even hinted to my father that it will find an opportunity to help me as a wife, so they never questioned the news I sent."

Xiao Jinxi heard the words and said, "What does Second Madam mean?"

Zhao Zhishan smiled slightly, and continued: "Miss, instead of letting my father and Emperor Zongyuan arrange other eyeliners that I can't control, why not let me do this eyeliner? At least what's the news? How much is up to me."

"Second Madam is smart." Xiao Jinxi boasted.That's right, being able to arrange all of this along the way must be thoughtful.

I only heard Zhao Zhishan continue to speak slowly: "I chose to enter the mansion as a concubine back then. I didn't regret it. To me, concubine and wife are just titles, and I never cared about them. But my mother put her heart into it, starting with Xuan'er. When I was able to call someone, let her call me mother, not second mother. When Xuan'er was enlightened at the age of three, her mother even taught her to read and write, and then put Xuan'er under her name. Xuan'er Since childhood, food, clothing, housing and transportation have been the best, and she has never suffered from the injustice suffered by the other concubine children of Tianqi. Over the years, I have forgotten the worldly views."

At this moment, there was pain in Zhao Zhishan's eyes: "Since what happened at Yunyin Temple that day, it was the first time that Xuan'er got angry at me that day. Xuan'er felt wronged, and that wronged was actually given by me." .”

"I have never regretted being married to Lord Hou for so many years, but that day, I actually had some regrets in my heart, regretting my waywardness back then."

"On the day I returned to the mansion, when the eldest lady surrounded the two mansions with soldiers to seek an explanation for Xuan'er, I realized that my mother's foresight and foresight back then, and that I was a concubine, was already a fact. The only thing she could do was to use another This is a way to give Xuan'er a name."

I saw Zhao Zhishan got up and bowed again to perform the ceremony: "Missy knows that I am delivering news for my father and the emperor, but she still defended Xuan'er like that that day. I would like to thank Missy again."

"Second Madam, please sit down." Xiao Jinxi continued with a faint smile, "How did Second Madam see you? I already know."

Zhao Zhishan said frankly with a smile: "Since the day of the canonization ceremony, the guards in the Hou's mansion have been strengthened. Whether Madam Su's actions can be concealed is another matter. But that day, the accompanying guards of Yunyin Temple did not return to the mansion early. , but just after we entered the mansion, the eldest miss already knew about Xuan'er's grievances, so it can only be that the eldest miss has arranged for accompanying secret guards. Everything in the lotus rhyme courtyard has long been under the nose of the eldest miss."

"Second Madam, you are really smart." Xiao Jinxi praised.

"No, it's Missy Dazhi. Missy could not have exposed it, but the incident at Yunyin Temple hurt Xuan'er's heart. Missy doesn't want Xuan'er's mother to hurt her again, let alone the old lady. I was disappointed, that's why I chose to let me know about the existence of the hidden guards, the young miss is reminding me and giving me a chance." Zhao Zhishan said shamelessly.

"With the intelligence of the second lady, if I serve Emperor Zongyuan and Emperor Mingxi wholeheartedly, I'm afraid Jinxi will have a hard time coping with it." Xiao Jinxi said frankly.Indeed, Zhao Zhishan was thoughtful, if she really resented her father and the Hou Mansion, Wu'an Hou Mansion would have fallen into the hands of Emperor Zong Yuan long ago.

Zhao Zhishan smiled knowingly, and continued: "Today I choose to be honest with Missy. One is to thank Missy for protecting Xuan'er's innocent heart all these years. Second, I want to give Missy a promise."

"Miss, it was my own choice to marry Lord Hou as my concubine back then. No matter what plans I made back then, it was just to be by Lord Hou's side. This original intention has not changed from beginning to end. Therefore, I I will never put the Marquis Mansion in danger, please rest assured, Miss."

Xiao Jinxi nodded and replied, "Okay, what the second lady said today, Jinxi has written it down."

Then he said: "Second Madam, I have no power to interfere with your father's affairs. But Xuan'er is my younger sister, Jin Xi will definitely protect Xuan'er in this life, and Second Madam, please rest assured."

Zhao Zhishan smiled when she heard the words, nodded and replied: "I will remember it in my heart."

After a while, Xiao Jinxi asked again: "Second Madam, what are your plans for your father and Emperor Ming Xi?"

Zhao Zhishan said frankly: "Emperor Mingxi is not the first emperor, this person has unpredictable thoughts, although he seems to value my father now, but is it really so? Besides that day the eldest lady besieged the two mansions for Xuan'er, Emperor Mingxi knew about it. From now on, even if I send him news again, he may not believe it, even if it is so, it doesn't matter if I don't do this eyeliner. My father has my own opinion, don't worry, Miss."

Xiao Jinxi heard the words, but at the moment she was appreciative in her heart, Zhao Zhishan could see it so clearly, but the self in the previous life was blinded by a leaf...
After a moment of recovery, Xiao Jinxi smiled meaningfully and said, "Second Madam, everything in the world has two sides. It depends on what Emperor Mingxi thinks. You have spread the news. As for how Emperor Mingxi thinks, that's up to him." thing."

Zhao Zhishan was taken aback when she heard the words, and looked at Xiao Jinxi suspiciously... After a while, Fang smiled knowingly, and replied: "I understand."

Zhui got up and bowed again to perform the ceremony: "I have disturbed the eldest lady today, so the concubine will leave first."

Xiao Jinxi also stood up, smiled slightly and bowed back, "Second Madam, go slowly."

Looking at Zhao Zhishan who left, Xiao Jinxi sighed in her heart, Zhao Zhishan, my father has the persistence of my father, I hope your heart can remain as before, then Jinxi will protect you well in the future...

Grandmother, when Zhao Zhishan entered the government, it was because of the situation, and you worked very hard on this journey, you didn't want the imperial power disputes to erode your flesh and blood, so you took steps to calm down these secular disturbances... ·, Xi'er, I hope you will finally get your wish!
I saw Xiao Jinxi turning her head and staring at the chessboard on the pear blossom couch, unconsciously pinching a jade with two fingers and caressing it...Zhao Zhishan is the eyeliner left by Emperor Zongyuan, Zhao Yukun will confess frankly in order to flatter Emperor Mingxi Tell me, but, didn't Emperor Mingxi arrange other eyeliners himself?Just relying on the few unknown pawns now... But this person of Emperor Mingxi has not shown his feet until now, and I still can't figure out who this person could be...
