Chapter 15
"A Zhong." Liu Ruzheng seemed to have seen an acquaintance, and walked up to say hello.

"General!" A slightly rough-looking man responded with a bold smile.

The Ah Zhong that Liu Ruzheng was talking about was very big, and he was holding a petite beauty with a weak Liu Fufeng in his hand. The difference in body size between the two was too big, and they looked very incompatible standing together. Behind them were two people with Liu Chen. A boy of about the same age as Feng.

The adults of the two families seemed to have a good relationship, and they found a suitable place to sit down and chat.

But the four of them are not familiar with each other!After greeting each other politely, they could only stare and sit next to their respective parents.

Through their conversation, Liu Yingzi figured out that this Ah Zhong's full name was Li Zhong, and he was the lieutenant general beside his father. They fought side by side on the battlefield together and had a life-threatening friendship.

However, the country has been relatively stable in the past few years, and there has been no war, so the two have not gone to the battlefield together for a long time, and they can only train together in the barracks.

Today, the spirits were high, and the two talked about the glorious years. Li Zhong held up a bowl of wine and said boldly, "General, madam, I would like to toast you."

Liu Ruzheng and Xi Yaru also drank from their wine bowls, while Li Zhong's wife sat quietly and looked at the three of them with a smile.

When Li Zhong finished his third cup and was about to pour another, Mrs. Li said, "Old Li."

Her voice was gentle and friendly, but Li Zhong stopped pouring wine immediately as if he had heard some order, and took a few grapes from the fruit plate with an awkward smile, "Drinking is harmful to the body, we eat it." Grapes, eat grapes."

The others, including the two boys, smiled knowingly, only Liu Yingzi and Liu Chenfeng didn't understand what was going on, and silently ate the fruit on the table.

"Father and mother, there was a nice place just now, my brother and I went to see it together." Since he couldn't get along with them, Liu Yingzi planned to take Liu Chenfeng to escape first, and come back after dinner time.

"Go, don't run around, don't go too far, and bump into other people." There are many maids and eunuchs in the palace, so you won't get lost. It's understandable for children to sit and want to play when they are bored, so Xi Yaru Just a few words of advice.

Liu Yingzi got permission, and directly pulled Liu Chenfeng out of the crowd.

"I'm sorry." Liu Yingzi bumped into someone accidentally, and immediately apologized, but when she looked up, it was Li Xueshi, "Hello, Bachelor."

"Walk carefully." Li Xueshi's tone was gentle, without the slightest hint of blame.

"Why is Li Xueshi standing alone and not looking for someone to talk with?" Liu Chenfeng asked after walking for a while.

"Let's go, find a quiet place, you don't care if he is standing alone." Having said that, Liu Yingzi still subconsciously looked at Li Xueshi, who was looking at a certain place in a daze, by the way Looking at him, isn't it the direction of parents?

"Where are we going now?"

"Just walk around. The banquet is full of people you don't know. It's a bit embarrassing there." Liu Yingzi has only traveled for more than two months, and she doesn't know a few people. There are many classmates in the school, but she feels that those children Too small and noisy, so there is not much communication.

"I met a few friends, but I was afraid that you would be bored, so I stayed with you and didn't call them."

"Really? It really is my real brother!" Liu Yingzi hugged Liu Chenfeng happily.

"There's someone there!" Liu Chenfeng suddenly lowered his voice and said.

"Really or not, where? Don't scare me." Liu Yingzi turned her head and saw no one at all.

"Really, let's go, let's follow and see, that person is sneaky and doesn't know if he has done something bad." Liu Chenfeng directly pulled Liu Yingzi to catch up.

"Are you sure you can see clearly? Is there really someone? I'm so scared!" Liu Yingzi didn't want to chase after him at all!She doesn't believe that there are gods in the world, but she feels that there are ghosts in the world, and she is super afraid of ghosts.When Liu Chenfeng said there was someone just now, she turned her head and looked over, but there was nothing at all, which made her panic.

Liu Chenfeng didn't answer either, he just dragged her to run in the direction where the figure left just now.

"Shh! Look." I don't know how far I ran, the surrounding scenery gradually became desolate, Liu Chenfeng finally stopped and hid behind a big rock.

Sure enough, Liu Yingzi saw a figure flashing into a dilapidated room with drafty windows.

"There is such a dilapidated place in the imperial palace!" Compared with the magnificent and magnificent buildings they had seen before, this place seemed out of place.

"The place where some servants with extremely low status live, and the cold palace, are all like this. They are located in a remote place and have been in disrepair for a long time." Liu Chenfeng analyzed, "That person is sneaky, he must have done something shameful. What’s more, if you think about it, we didn’t meet a single guard or court lady along the way, which means that he knows the palace’s roads and guards very well, so he must be a habitual offender.”

"There seems to be movement in the room, let's go and have a look!"

The two of them sneaked and half poked their heads to look through the window.

Inside was Liu Yingzi's classmate - Ninth Prince Wen Qilu and a young woman who looked to be in her early twenties.

Wen Qilu had a bag full of food in his arms, and he was hanging his head, showing no emotion, while the woman in front of him was wearing an ordinary palace lady's attire, scolding him with anger in her eyes.

So it seems that this woman is Wen Qilu's mother.

After listening to the corner for a while and adding to his previous understanding, Liu Yingzi probably understood what happened.

Wen Qilu's mother gave birth to a prince but was not valued by the emperor, coupled with the fame of flying on a branch to become a phoenix, she was bullied by the palace people, and the daily food was also rotten, and Wen Qilu was taking advantage of the palace people's reputation. He was busy with the banquet and went to steal food. He hoped to improve the food for himself and his mother occasionally, but he didn't expect that his mother didn't appreciate it. The two had such a hard time.

Wen Qilu's mother's words were only blame and disgust, and her eyes showed no pity. Liu Yingzi could not feel a mother's love for her child from her. I am afraid that in her eyes, Wen Qilu was not her son at all, but just a climber. tool!
Poor Wen Qilu just lowered his head and hugged the food in his arms tightly. He might have hoped that his mother would praise him, but he didn't expect that what he got was only reprimand.

Such a young child has been eating spoiled food for a long time, no wonder he felt an abnormal hunger yellow on his face the first time I saw him.

I really didn't expect him to have such a deformed childhood. From a young age, he saw his half-brothers and sisters well-fed and well-fed and pampered, but he wanted to eat something and had to sneak around. He was bullied by his classmates in school and in front of his mother Not even the slightest bit of warmth.

Liu Yingzi's childhood was not happy, but no matter what, Lin Ruoqing was with her, and now she had parents and elder brother, but Wen Qilu had nothing, she could imagine how scared and helpless Wen Qilu was.

When Wen Qilu's mother was emotional and reached out to pull him, Liu Yingzi pushed the door open and walked in.

"Yingzi!" Liu Chenfeng didn't expect Liu Yingzi's action to be so sudden, and was startled.

The two people in the room also looked at her.

Liu Yingzi ignored their surprised faces, and pointed at Wen Qilu, "He is your son, only seven years old, he doesn't know anything yet, but he knows to love his mother, take the risk to get something to eat, Come here for you at the first time, as a mother, don't you feel that your behavior just now was inappropriate?"

"I was impulsive just now. I have encountered some unpleasant things recently, so I couldn't control my emotions. I usually hurt Qilu, don't you?" Wen Qilu's mother made a 180-degree turn and touched Wen Qilu's head.

This made Liu Yingzi a little confused, where did he sing?

Wen Qilu seemed not used to this woman's sudden intimacy.

"Qilu, is this your friend? Which family's young master and young lady are you? You really don't know how to say hello in advance, which makes my mother lose her composure." The woman gently pulled Wen Qilu to sit down, but she didn't know Moved two stools from where to greet Liu Yingzi and Liu Chenfeng, "Come and sit."

"We are classmates of Qilu. We just came to the palace to attend a banquet and came to see him. Who knew you scolded him, so we acted impulsively and lost manners." Liu Yingzi probably understood in his heart that this woman was afraid from the clothes she wore. Because the two of them were born into wealthy families, they thought they were friends of Wen Qilu, so they wanted to curry favor with them, and they really treated her like a child!
Liu Yingzi was very contemptuous in her heart, but since she was hypocritical, and she couldn't tear herself apart, let's act together.

"Which family are you guys from?" The woman eagerly wanted to know the identities of Liu Chenfeng and Liu Yingzi.

"We are from the General's Mansion, and our father is Liu Ruzheng." Liu Yingzi reported to the family, and in the subsequent conversation, he deliberately created an illusion that he knew Wen Qilu very well, hoping that this snobbish woman would think that Wen Qilu There is still value in using it to treat him better.

But Wen Qilu didn't speak from the beginning to the end, just listened with his lips tightly pressed.

"It's been a while since I've been here. I'm afraid the banquet is about to start, so my brother and I will leave first. We will come to see you and Qilu next time we have a chance."

"Okay, okay!" The woman blossomed after listening to the music, as if she had seen the general's mansion waving to her.

Liu Yingzi smiled harmlessly in front of her face, but immediately pouted her mouth when she turned around. Does a brainless woman really think that the palace is a vegetable market?She actually believed the nonsense that she said casually that she was going to visit again.

"We were originally here to catch thieves, why did it become chatter?" Liu Chenfeng sighed, "And that woman is a thief, she can't insult her son like that on the spur of the moment."

"Who knows?" Liu Yingzi shrugged, she was not impulsive, but pretended!

But Liu Yingzi didn't intend to tell Liu Chenfeng clearly, since he was born in a warm family, there is no need for him to know the darkness of the world too early.

"By the way! How could she have a son? She must be innocent when entering the palace as a maidservant, she is going to be bestowed to death!" Liu Chenfeng suddenly thought of the palace rules when he mentioned the word son.
