Houfu Key Class

The sixteen-year-old Zong Zhao is the young marquis of Yuanyang Marquis Mansion, and is also a good brother who grew up with Chu Heng. He walked in quickly to persuade him: "Your Highness, calm down, calm down. This child cannot be kept. Don't be deceived by Shu Fei. She did it on purpose, deliberately using her own death to disrupt your deployment. She is taking advantage of your kindness."

Chu Heng shook his head, his face full of pain: "I can't kill him, I can't kill him, I'm sorry to Shu Fei, I'm sorry to this child, I'm sorry to my father and mother..."

Chu Heng's defense collapsed, and he couldn't listen to anything Zong Zhao said. He kept saying sorry, and his mind was full of Luo Shu's eyes, and his jade-white hands were shaking.

In the end, Zong Zhao looked at him in such pain and said firmly: "Your Highness, since you can't bear to kill him, then leave it to me. I will give him a clean life and live an ordinary life."

In the chaotic and bloody rainy night, he handed the child to Zong Zhao.

The prince's thoughts drifted back. The collapse and struggle ten years ago seemed to be a thing of the past life.

The baby who slept well in the cradle has now grown into a ten-year-old boy. He is well-read, can distinguish right from wrong, and is good at learning. He is a very good child.

But, Zong Zhao.

Didn't you say that you would give him a clean life?

In the previous eight years, the prince has always followed this sentence very well. He pretended not to know who Zong Zhao's son who suddenly appeared was, and did not care about how the child lived or what his reputation was. He just wanted to stay away from the child's life and let the child live his own life.

But Zong Zhao moved first.

After Jin Cheng was almost strangled to death by Luo Jing, he went to the Marquis' Mansion to check the child's body and finally found something abnormal. When he returned, he ordered people to check what happened recently in Yuanyang Marquis' Mansion:

A year ago, the Marquis' Mansion suddenly found that the second son Zong Yan had a wife and children who were living outside; half a year ago, Zong Zhao, who had been missing for eight years, suddenly wanted to get married; the old Marquis and the old lady inexplicably handed over the housekeeper's key and strongly supported an unfamiliar new wife to teach the child; the wife he married happened to be better at teaching than many famous teachers; the famous dandy in the capital suddenly emerged in the academy...

There were too many things that didn't make sense when he checked them one by one, but because he knew Jin Cheng's identity, it was so easy to make sense.

The prince deduced: Zong Zhao is still alive.

So he asked Xu Wan if she had seen Zong Zhao, but Xu Wan said no.

As brothers for many years, even if there was no communication, he vaguely guessed what Zong Zhao wanted to do. Yes, only he and Zong Zhao knew about this matter, and the only person who could check Luo Jingfeng was Jin Cheng.

The situation in the court is tense now. The Luo family has completely escaped the control of the court. If there is no Jincheng, their rebellion will directly change the dynasty.

The prince has been ill for so many years and has long been unable to fight with the Luo family. He has also been prepared to die at any time, but Zong Zhao's behavior has given him hope.

Maybe he can still help.

If it is destined that the rebellion of the Luo brothers cannot be stopped, then let Jincheng take this position, let this child who has a heart for his country come.

The prince opened his eyes and looked at the little devil who was still writing, feeling relieved and satisfied.

The imperial physician said that the toxins in his body have penetrated into his internal organs, and his deadline is today. The prince wanted to leave quietly, but he didn't expect to see this child again.

"What else does your highness want to hear?" Zong Jincheng didn't know anything. He had finished writing the Book of Rites and thought he had helped your highness, and he was happy in his heart.

The prince smiled and said, "Then write down the Nine Classics of Governing a Country again."

"Ah? This one is very short."

"Well, just write it."

Zong Jincheng did as he was told, and began to write and recite again: "There are nine classics for governing a country: self-cultivation, respect for the virtuous, love for relatives, respect for ministers, consideration for ministers, love for the common people, attraction for craftsmen, gentleness for distant people, and love for princes..."

The prince's body was getting weaker, but his mind was getting clearer. The scene of his childhood flashed through his mind. At that time, his father had just ascended the throne and held his hand to teach him to write. He wrote the Nine Classics of Governing a Country.

"Heng'er, you have to grow up quickly so that you can help your father solve his problems. We, father and son, will definitely create a prosperous era with one heart."

"Well! Heng'er remembers it!"

The vigor of his childhood and the vigor of his youth all appeared before his eyes one by one, shining into his now weak body. Prince Chu Heng smiled faintly and closed his eyes.

Zong Zhao, you will be the one to accompany Jin Cheng for the rest of the journey.

I may not be able to wait for you.

The sound of horse hooves is ringing.

The carriage of the Marquis's Mansion is on the way to the palace.

After Xu Wan heard that the little devil went to the East Palace early in the morning, she felt more and more worried, and hurriedly asked Cuizhi and Cuiliu to prepare the horses, and she wanted to go to the palace.

"This bastard, he came to the palace so early to disturb the prince's rest. I hope the guards can do their duty and don't let him in. He is too naughty. Why did he suddenly rebel?"

Xu Wan complained and thought, this kid doesn't seem to have entered puberty, Cuizhi laughed beside him.

The carriage was already running at the fastest speed, but Xu Wan remembered that it was almost time to leave the court, and many officials would soon come out of the palace. At that time, there would be a lot of people and chaos, and it would be easy to cause trouble.

The more she thought about it, the more worried she became. She quickly opened the curtain and shouted, "Cui Liu, you are good at Qinggong. Take our mansion's sign and go over there, so that Jin Cheng won't have a fight with the guards at the palace gate in order to enter the East Palace."

"Yes." Cui Liu took it and went to the palace.

Xu Wan took a breath and thought to herself: When I come back this time, I must tell Wuyan that when I meet this kind of little ancestor who thinks of everything, don't obey everything.

"Bang——"

"Uu——"

The carriage was suddenly hit, and Xu Wan fell against the window, slapping her forehead. She got up a little early today, so she covered her forehead and hissed.

"What's wrong Cuizhi, did we hit someone?"

Cuizhi said anxiously: "No, madam, our carriage was hit by someone. It seems that these people did it on purpose."

Xu Wan opened the curtain and saw several men on horseback opposite. They were looking at them provocatively and said: "It turns out to be the Yuanyang Marquis' Mansion, which is extremely wealthy. I said why are you so far away and someone caught your eye? Are you? If you’re rich enough, would you put all the gems on the windows?”

"Hahahaha... Merchants all behave like this. They have too much money and no place to spend it. Even the carriages are beautifully made. How can we, the rough guys in the military camp, afford them?"

"Haha, what are you so arrogant about? Wait until our General Luo comes back and see if they behave with their tail between their legs."

Several people spoke provocatively, and one of them came over and stretched out his hand towards them. This is a common gesture in the military camp. The discerning businessmen and wealthy people will immediately hold up the banknotes to ward off the disaster. Offended General Pingxi.

But Xu Wan is not an ordinary businessman. Her natal father is the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, and her father-in-law also has a serious title. Naturally, she cannot bow to these rabble, otherwise the prince's house will never be able to hold its head high in the capital in the future.

Xu Wan winked at Cuizhi, and the accompanying servant wanted to run back to the Hou Mansion to call someone.

The man who reached out for the silver couldn't wait for the silver to come, so he shouted impatiently: "You bitch, you still dare to call someone, I think you are toasting me and you will be fined, so I will slap you..."

"Zheng——"

An arrow came through the air, with extremely strong force, piercing the claw that was trying to offend. The ferocious force of the arrow pierced his hand, nailing it to the wall behind him!
