Cheng Yu pretended to die, and Prince Jing first set up a spirit shed and placed a coffin, and waited for the "corpse" to be transported back before the funeral was held.

Hanzhu's belly is almost four months old, and it has passed the most prone time to get into trouble, but she has experienced the troubles of her husband's death during an expedition. Chu Qing was worried that her daughter could no longer stand the tossing, so she specially told Madam Si to let her daughter cry in front of the coffin and pretend to be dizzy and rest. Except for the Zhou family, no one else needs to see her.

Hanzhu knew that Cheng Yu was fine, and she was really sad and crying. She didn't dare to cry, for fear that Brother Yuan would cry with her, so Fang led Ningzhu to see her early, and Hanzhu pretended to be sad and fell on the bed and said blankly. Brother Yuan leaned against her mother, observing the elders with big eyes confused and nervous eyes, not understanding why they didn't laugh anymore.

Fang was fine, but his good brother-in-law died. Ningzhu cried so much that her eyes were swollen. She wanted to comfort her sister, but her throat was updated as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Let's go, let's go ahead and take a look." Fang was afraid that his goddaughter would cry and scare Brother Yuan, so he endured the pain in his heart and said to Ningzhu.

Ningzhu couldn't help but say nothing, sat sideways beside her sister leaning on her shoulder, and turned her back to her nephew and swallowed, "Sister, I'll go there first, and I'll see you later... Sister, I know you feel ache, but think about Brother Yuan and her niece in her belly, can you stop suffocating yourself? I'm afraid something happens to you..."

Hanzhu's eyes were sore when her sister said that, she hugged her and coaxed her in a low voice: "Sister knows, don't worry, A Ning, my sister won't let something happen to me."

The sister finally spoke, Ningzhu felt a little bit more relieved, quietly wiped her tears, and wanted to hug her nephew again.

Brother Yuan refused to give it to him and lay on his mother's side, looking at her red eyes, "Mom doesn't cry..."

Ningzhu could no longer watch it, and quickly left the house. Tears looked like broken beads, and Fang followed him out in a heavy mood.

Hanzhu watched his relatives go out, sighed, and coaxed his son beside him softly.

Their mother was weak and weak, and there was no one else in Prince Jing's mansion. Fang, the aunt, helped to handle the funeral. Zhou Yin and Zhou Wenting and his son received male guests, and Fang led Ningzhu to entertain female relatives.

Ningzhu lowered her head and shed tears silently. No one had anything to do with her until she heard the maid telling the name of Mrs. Gu.

Ningzhu raised his head in shock.

"Down, she can't recognize you." Fang reminded calmly. When the sisters entered Beijing, Hanzhu was thirteen, Ningzhu was eight years old. Now six years have passed, and Mrs. Gu may be able to recognize Hanzhu. It is impossible for Ningzhu, whose appearance and temperament have changed greatly, not to mention that Ningzhu's almond eyes were crying into walnuts. As half of her mother, she could not say that she was not ugly against her will.

But Mrs. Gu came here today and was instructed by her grandson, so she naturally knew the truth.

The Jiang sisters who once abandoned her as she was as worn out, all of them flew to the branches. One of them could not escape, the other was a noble daughter of the uncle's family, and the grandson was suppressed by their sisters. Old Mrs. Gu's chest was blocked. If Cheng Yu hadn't let her feel relieved, she would have been angry last night.

Fortunately, my son had already thought of a plan to turn things around and asked her to come over and make some trouble for the Jiang sisters first.

After saying a few words of regret and grief with Fang, Mrs. Gu's eyes fell on Ningzhu and walked over to comfort her. Ningzhu lowered her head and said nothing, but Mrs. Gu quickly stuffed a small bamboo tube into her hand when she was approaching. Ningzhu was surprised. Before she could look up, Mrs. Gu threatened indifferently: "Give it to your sister, don't let others know."

When she stepped back, she looked at her threateningly. Although she didn't know what her grandson wrote, she would do it since her grandson had given her instructions.

Ningzhu's heart tightened. When Fang looked over in confusion, she instinctively hid the bamboo tube in her sleeve bag without saying it out.

Ningzhu was afraid that there was a secret inside that was not convenient for even the adopted mother to know, and at the same time, she was afraid that the things in the bamboo tube would shock her sister, so she found an excuse to leave the spirit shed. She had her own small courtyard in the royal palace, Ningzhu went back there directly, sent the maids to guard outside, and she entered the house by herself.

There is a letter in the bamboo tube, without an envelope, just a piece of rolled up paper.

Ningzhu opened it with concern, and when he saw it halfway, he was so angry that he kneaded the letter into a ball.

Why is Gu Heng so shameless? He has achieved this today through Meng Xianxian. I heard that Meng Xianxian is getting worse and worse. He has been bedridden recently. Gu Heng doesn’t take good care of his wife, so he actually wrote a letter to his sister when his brother-in-law died in battle. Why did he say that if his sister is not a princess, if he has not started a family, he is willing to reunite with his sister...

Ningzhu had never been so angry, so she got up angrily, walked to the candlestick and burned the letter.

This letter must not be shown to my sister. Ningzhu is afraid of dirtying her sister's eyes and also afraid of being angry with her body!

But she couldn't swallow this. Did Gu Heng think that his brother-in-law would be dead and no one would support them?

Seeing the letter burning into ashes in the flames, Ningzhu wanted to touch her adopted mother, except her sister, but she couldn't do anything. Her adopted mother was a female relative and could not do anything. Her adoptive father and brother didn't know it, and she couldn't tell them. Chen Shuo knew it. He was his brother-in-law who stayed to guard Changfengtang. His good kung fu subordinates also took care of the guards of Changfengtang...

Ningzhu did not hesitate anymore and led the maid to her brother-in-law's yard. She wanted to find Chen Shuo, but accidentally ran into Qi Zhi on the way.

Qi Zhi had just sent the prince to the backyard and confirmed that the prince would not come out in a short time. He left temporarily and came to find her. But he really met. Qi Zhi didn't expect to see her like this. He frowned in a plain skirt and looked down on his face, and was obviously angry. His originally beautiful face turned out to be very imposing because of his changed eyes.

Qi Zhi couldn't help but be stunned.

Ningzhu stopped when she saw him. After all, she was an acquaintance and wanted to say hello. When she met Qi Zhi's shocked gaze, Ningzhu somehow thought of her swollen eyes. Ningzhu knew that she was ugly now, but her brother-in-law was dead. She had no intention of caring about her appearance, and no one would stare at her eyes unknowingly. At this moment, Qi Zhi was rude, Ningzhu was angry and did not look at her face and was about to leave directly.

"Where is Miss Ning going?" It's not the same road to the backyard. Qi Zhi couldn't help asking. When he spoke, he looked at her red and swollen eyes, leaving only heartache. Perhaps because this might be the last side, the boy no longer concealed what he was thinking.

Ningzhu was quite angry when he turned around. Unexpectedly, he turned around and met such bright eyes. It seemed that the frozen lake in winter finally melted, floating with shocking ripples. He seemed to have changed. He was no longer the guard of the Marquis' Mansion who only knew how to bow his head and guard his respects, but...

Ningzhu couldn't tell the feeling, she just felt that Qi Zhi in front of her should be the real him.

Is that kind of look concerned about her?

Ningzhu suddenly stopped angry, but the Gu family was their sister's secret. Ningzhu didn't want Qi Zhi to know, so she shook her head and asked, "Do you have something to do?"

The May sun was so bright that it was dazzling. Qi Zhi looked at his sweetheart's simple look with squinted eyes and asked him. He hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Is there two sentences I want to ask you alone, are you in a hurry to leave?"

The capital is thousands of miles away from Fujian. If he wants to make contributions, he must set out quickly. There is really no time left.

The maid who followed Ningzhu frowned and looked at Qi Zhi vigilantly, "Do you want to ask, or the prince want to ask?" What is his identity? He actually wants to get along with the girl alone?

Her words were full of warnings, and Qi Zhi was indifferent, looking at Ningzhu a few steps away, persistent and serious.

Ningzhu was dissatisfied with the maid's appearance of Qi Zhi. In her eyes, Qi Zhi, who often met when she was a child, was a partner and not a guard. Perhaps in the Hou Mansion, the Prince's Mansion, Qi Zhi had a low status, but Ningzhu never really regarded herself as a noble girl in the capital. She was just the daughter of a small family in Jiangnan, and an orphan who only had her sister depended on each other. It was not much different from Qi Zhi, who had the same orphan status.

"Go and wait for me." Ningzhu calmly ordered the maid to wait in front and observe whether anyone came over.

The maid understood that the girl was unhappy and went to do things consciously.

Ningzhu looked at Qi Zhi and turned around to go under a lush flower tree.

Qi Zhi was nervously sweating his palms, and followed her two steps behind.

"What are you going to ask me?" Ningzhu asked curiously, familiar with his stupidity and fearing that he would be too lazy at this time. Ningzhu reminded again: "Hurry up, there is something else to do with me."

"I like you."

Qi Zhi took a deep breath, looked down at her, and said in a panic in the shocked gaze of his lover, "I like you, I started to like you two years ago. I know I am not worthy of you, and I have always endured it, but seeing you having a blind date with Wu Cheng, I don't want to endure it anymore. If you, you are willing, I will resign from the Marquis and go to Fujian to earn military merits. If you have fame and fortune, then I will formally propose marriage. If you don't want to, I will go back to Liaodong Camp immediately and will never see you again in this life, which will make you dislike."

The boy's voice was low and he spoke very quickly, and every word was so clear.

Ningzhu looked at the handsome boy in front of her in disbelief. As he said, she recalled the past two years of getting along. However, except for the few peeks, she really couldn't remember that Qi Zhi had done similar actions to her. By the way, A Xun once complained that the candy fried chestnuts Qi Zhi left for her were bigger than the ones he gave to him...

That's Qi Zhi's love?

Ningzhu wanted to laugh for no reason, but when his body moved, his eyes were stabbed by the light leaking from the gaps in the leaves. Ningzhu quickly closed his eyes and remembered his appearance at the moment when he opened it.

Ningzhu was stunned and couldn't help but touch her eyes.

"Discomfortable eyes?" Qi Zhi kept staring at her after he said that, not daring to blink, for fear of missing any emotional changes in her. Seeing her looking up and rubbing her eyes, he asked worriedly.

After a few words of anxiety and nervousness, Ningzhu suddenly felt soft.

She was so ugly that he could even say that he liked her so seriously.

I don’t know how to answer, but I caught a glimpse of the plain white dress on my body. Thinking of my brother-in-law who just died in Fujian, Ningzhu suddenly cried and turned her back and said, “You are not allowed to go to Fujian…”

The string in Qi Zhi's mind that was tense due to expectations suddenly broke. He was not allowed to go, but he just didn't want to accept him, right?

But why did she cry?

The only girls who had spoken by Qi Zhi were the eldest and her. He didn't understand the thoughts of his daughter's family and why she cried, but he thought he was provoking her. He took a step back and said bitterly: "It's me who was delusional. Miss Ning, stop crying. I won't go to Fujian, I will go to Liaodong..."

"What are you doing in Liaodong?" Ningzhu turned around suddenly. Could it be that there was a war there, too.

After breaking my thoughts, Qi Zhi lowered his eyes in a regular manner, "I know you are kind-hearted and don't want me to lose the guard's chores, but I have no idea that I should have, so I am not worthy of serving the prince."

Ningzhu finally understood, pursed her lips and said coldly: "Then go, I will marry someone else when you leave!"

After saying that, he ran away without looking back. My brother-in-law just left, and she didn't have the time to bother him anymore. If he said this, he should understand, right?

The person ran forward, his ears paid attention to the movement behind him, and he didn't hear anything. Ningzhu bit his lip, afraid that he would be too stupid, so he looked back before turning. Qi Zhi did not understand her meaning at first, and he was a little extravagant, but he was afraid that he was self-indulgent. Until she slowed down and looked back, looking at him with walnut eyes, Qi Zhi finally calmed down and looked at her uncontrollably and smiled.
