Chapter 225
The second day.
When Wei Hanzhang woke up, Xiao Junzhan was no longer there. She was used to being pampered and had never done any delicate work, so when she woke up, she only felt that her wrists were sore.
While rubbing her sore wrist, she recalled what happened last night, her cheeks slowly turned red.
Sure enough!
I knew that that person was holding back some evil spirits and deliberately made her drunk so that she would...
She was so upset that she wanted to punch herself twice. Why was she so unrestrained once the joy Gu was ineffective?
The palace maid guarding outside heard the movement and asked in a low voice. Wei Hanzhang casually arranged his pajamas and called people in.
A row of palace maids entered, and after bowing, they each performed their duties to help her wash and change her clothes.
Wei Hanzhang was used to being served by Luzhu and Lulan. He originally thought that he would not be used to it, but unexpectedly, he also felt that these maids served him well.
She raised her eyes and looked at the sun outside the window, feeling a little embarrassed and said, "When Your Highness left, did you ask someone to take me out of the palace?"
The leading maid said respectfully: "His Highness only gave you orders to serve you, good girl, and did not give any other orders."
It happened that someone from the palace brought breakfast at this time. Wei Hanzhang could not leave, so he could only wait for Xiao Junzhan to come back.
The breakfast was served in the temple. She had something on her mind, so she didn't use much.
After dinner, I had time to look at the living room of His Highness the Crown Prince.
The Daling Dynasty was founded more than 300 years ago. This palace was built along with the dynasty. It has been nurtured by the dragon spirit of many generations of emperors, and the Tianjia style is solemn and solemn.
The front hall of Changji Hall is where Xiao Junzhan received important ministers for a small court meeting. For fear of bumping into any foreign ministers, Wei Hanzhang did not dare to move easily, so he could only walk around the back hall.
When she reached the door of the study, she turned her head and asked the maid following behind her: "Can I go in?"
The maid lowered her head and replied: "His Highness said that there is no place for you to go in Changji Hall."
Hearing this, Wei Hanzhang's heart moved slightly, he subconsciously calmed down his expression, opened the door and walked in.
Wei Hanzhang had already seen Xiao Junzhan’s bookshelf.
There are many unique books, covering a wide range of topics. A random book is enough for her to study carefully for half a month.
When Xiao Junzhan came back from the court, he first asked the palace officials a few questions, and then went straight into the study. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the heart-warming little girl holding a book, and she was engrossed in reading.
He watched quietly, his eyes darkening unknowingly.
Thinking about how many more months it would take before I could live such a life and see her when I returned from the imperial court, I couldn't help but feel some unspeakable emotions in my heart.
…I really want to lock her up in the palace and not let her go back.
He breathed softly, walked over, glanced at the book she was holding in her hand, and said warmly: "How about staying in the palace for a few more days? I will find you whatever you like, and I won't bore you." "
He suddenly made a sound, which startled Wei Hanzhang, who was fascinated by the book. He covered his chest and said, "Why do you always appear suddenly and scare people?"
Ignoring his words completely, he stood up and said, "Since I'm back, send a carriage to take me out of the palace."
Xiao Junzhan paused for a few moments before she suddenly reached out and hugged her, saying, "Ran Ran is such a bad girl. She promised not to look at me when she wakes up, but then she went back on her word, didn't she?"
"...Don't do this!" Wei Hanzhang felt like he was about to split, and said angrily: "You're sad, but I'm not any better than you. You have to make things difficult for me!" She stretched out her arms to push him away. He said loudly: "You should find a way to help me get rid of the poison, so that I won't change my face!"
Although she has a delicate temperament, it is extremely difficult for her to get angry like this. When Xiao Junzhan saw her like this, he could not bear to push her anymore, so he softened his voice almost subconsciously: "It's my fault, I shouldn't push you."
Haunting her?
He also needs to be very determined.
Wei Hanzhang said angrily: "I feel annoyed when I see you. Don't think of a solution to get me out of the control of the Huanqing Gu and fall in love with you again. It's useless."
After the words fell, Xiao Junzhan's lips moved, but he never spoke. He just looked at her quietly.
The bright affection in those eyes made Wei Hanzhang more and more upset. He pushed him away and walked out the door, muttering that he wanted to leave the palace.
Xiao Junzhan sighed softly and ordered people to prepare the car.
He took a few steps forward and stretched out his hand to hold her in his hand and said, "I'm going on an autumn hunting trip in a few days. Uncle Cheng'en's Mansion is also on the list. Will Ran Ran come with me?"
Wei Hanzhang has no doubt that the companion he mentioned must be like staying in the palace, where the two of them live together.
She shook her head and said: "Since I am accompanied by my parents and sisters at home, I am not traveling with Your Highness."
Xiao Junzhan was not surprised. He smiled and said, "Your uncle and his family are arriving in Beijing today. It would be great if you bring them with you."
He suddenly mentioned this, which made Wei Hanzhang a little dazed. He immediately reacted and said: "I'm finally back. It's been several months, and I don't know if something happened."
Thinking about the news he had received, Xiao Junzhan frowned slightly and his expression changed a little. Wei Hanzhang looked at her and her eyes widened: "Is something really wrong?"
"Your cousin's eldest son contracted a serious disease during his exile..." Xiao Junzhan said, "He died of illness."
Cousin’s eldest son…
Wei Hanzhang blinked. Her uncle had a total of four sons, two of whom were already married. Among them, only the third cousin got a boy, named Jiang Zhiyu, the eldest grandson of the Jiang family.
The child is only two years old.
There are many third-generation descendants of the Jiang family, but among the many cousins, Wei Hanzhang only got along with his third cousin Jiang Shengwen. She was only thirteen years old when his eldest son was born, and it was the first time she saw such a small breast dumpling. It was very rare to hold her and reluctant to let go.
When she left Xuzhou, the child could already call her aunt.
She hugged him when they saw each other off at the city gate that day.
…died?
"No," Wei Hanzhang didn't want to believe it. "That child has always been strong. His grandmother said he was as strong as a calf."
Xiao Junzhan pursed his lips and stretched out his arms to hold her in his arms without saying a word.
After she calmed down a little, Fang said, "How about I go home with you? Or do you want to go directly to Jiang Mansion?"
"No need," Wei Hanzhang's eyelids were red, but he still calmly replied: "My uncle is a criminal who was pardoned from exile. It would be outrageous for you to come to the house in person when his family comes back."
He can give Ai Wujiwu face to her family, but it must not be now.
Although it was customary to grant favors to the queen's mother's family, she was not yet a queen, yet he raised his hand and gave Wei Hengguo the dukedom, and also granted favors to her maternal family, and even pardoned officials who had committed corruption and perverted the law. Its crime.
This is fine, after all, her uncle is a petty official, and his crime is not that serious.
But as the prince of the prison country, how would the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty think of being so kind to a criminal official who was corrupt, violated the law, and should have been exiled as a whole family?
