Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 863 He's sorry for you

  Compared to several ministers rushing around in the palace, Li Xin is much more relaxed.

After he left Yong'anmen, he got into Chen Shiliu's car and went back home. After a while, he walked out of the house again. At this moment, he had taken off his first-class court clothes and changed into ordinary clothes. He ran towards Qinhuaifang with his hands behind his back.

   This time, he was arguing with the assistant ministers. Li Xin was not fully sure. If Emperor Yuan Zhao fell to the four assistant ministers, he would really be ready to resign and go back to his hometown in Yongzhou.

   So he went to see his old friend.

   Qinhuai River is not very far from Yonglefang, and the Marquis of Jingan walked all the way, and it took only half an hour to reach the Qinhuai River.

He entered the capital at the age of sixteen or seventeen, and now more than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye. For more than ten years, things have changed in the capital, and even the emperor has changed two people, but the prosperity of Qinhuai is still the same, and there are still pictures of boats on the Rouge River. .

   It's just that it's daytime, and there's no business at all, so the boats stop by the river and don't move. Even the biggest building on the Qinhuai River, the door is half-closed and not open.

  Deyi Building has been the business of the Jingan Houfu for many years.

  Although Li Xin didn't take care of it very much these years, but with the backing of Jing'an Houfu, ten years later, the business of Deyi Building is still prosperous, even more than the Chengde Dynasty.

   And because of the well-informed, this place has also become a place where Li Xin's subordinate Shen Gang and others often come, and it is one of the bases of Li Xin's forces in the dark.

  Li Xin walked past the door of the building, without even glancing at the signboard of the building, and walked over directly.

After walking through the Deyi Building, he passed through seven or eight alleys and came to an unfamiliar alley. He lowered his head and sorted out his clothes, walked to a door at the end of the alley, and knocked softly. the door.

   The one who opened the door was a little girl who looked fourteen or fifteen years old.

   The little girl glanced at Li Xin, and then asked timidly, "This son, what are you... knocking on my door?"

  Li Xin smiled and glanced at the little girl.

   "Are you new here?"

   The little girl shook her head firmly.

   "I've been here for two years..."

  This is the residence of Cui Jiuniang. After the emperor Taikang ascended the throne, as the woman of the emperor, Cui Jiuniang was not convenient to make public appearances, so she left the Dayi Building and lived in this courtyard. It has been ten years in a blink of an eye.

Originally, Cui Jiuniang’s maid was Ping’er who had been following her, but Ping’er was also a woman, and she wanted to get married when she was old. About two years ago, Ping’er got married from this yard and married a butcher in Datongfang. Li Xin did not participate in this matter, but he still knew about it.

   The girl in front of her was a new maid bought by Li Xin from the Jiaofang Division for Cui Jiuniang, not all to take care of Cui Jiuniang, but to find her a companion.

   But in the past two years, Li Xin has not been here, so the little girl does not recognize Li Xin.

   Lord Li smiled slightly: "I'm a friend of your wife, my surname is Li, can you help me with the news?"

  The little girl wore two small buns and scratched her head when she heard the words.

   "You are Aunt Cui's friend, so why..."

   When the little girl said this, she covered her mouth and trotted all the way into the yard to report.

  Li Xin felt a little emotional when he heard this little girl's address to Cui Jiuniang.

   More than ten years ago, when he first entered the capital, Cui Jiuniang and Twenty-six years old were in their prime. Now more than ten years have passed, and the old shopkeeper of Dayilou is almost thirty-eight years old.

   She has been called auntie.

   After Li Xin stood at the door and waited for a while, Cui Jiuniang, dressed in plain white clothes, walked to the door under the guidance of the little girl.

Before    approached, Li Xin saw the bead spinning in her hand at a glance.

  The head of blue silk has been stuffed into the monk's hat.

   Plain white clothes are monks' clothes,

   After he approached, the Marquis of Jing'an looked up and down at Cui Jiuniang, who didn't wear any makeup, and sighed slightly: "Long time no see, elder sister is a layman?"

   Cui Jiuniang smiled slightly.

   "A few years ago, I had the idea of ​​becoming a monk, but it was not convenient for me to go out, and I couldn't shave.

   She looked up at Li Xin with a smile.

   "Why is Lord Hou so free, and came to me?"

   Li Xinxin sighed.

At that time, His Royal Highness King Wei left the palace and opened a mansion at the age of sixteen. He was an ambitious person. Therefore, after opening the mansion, he began to actively cultivate his own power. While helping Prince Wei's mansion to operate the Deiyi Building, he was a lover for His Royal Highness Prince Wei.

Later, His Royal Highness King Wei finally ascended the throne and became the supreme 95th Supreme Being. The woman who helped him run the proud building for seven years, but was not able to enter the palace, let alone become a concubine, but hid in this place to avoid suspicion. In the hutong, it takes ten years to hide.

   These ten years are Cui Jiuniang's last youth.

  Although she verbally said that she never thought about entering the palace as a concubine, as long as she is a normal person, how can she not have any thoughts in her heart?

   Li Xin came to see her and wanted to send her to Danzhou instead of having to suffer in the capital, but she shook her head and did not agree.

   In the blink of an eye, ten years have passed, and the former King of Wei, His Royal Highness, is already lying in the Tailing Mausoleum.

   The woman who had been waiting in Qinhuaifang Hutong for ten years finally let go of her obsession and chose to become a monk at home.

   Looking at Cui Jiuniang, who was wearing a monk's robe and hat, Li Xin sighed inwardly.

   Emperor Taikang has been sorry for many people in his life, but the one who is the most sorry is probably this dusty woman.

   "Sister and Brother", two people, sat down in the small courtyard.

   Jiuniang reached out and filled Li Xin with tea, then sat opposite Li Xin.

   Li Houye, who was eloquent and eloquent in the courtroom, was silent here for a long time, finally took a sip of tea, and said slowly, "Sister doesn't need to become a monk."

   He sighed and put down the teacup in his hand.

   "Now, Sister Cui can go out and live her own life. The late emperor has died, and no one will come to pursue her sister's affairs."

   "Even if there are people, the younger brother can block the elder sister."

   Jiuniang held the hot tea in both hands and lowered her head to take a sip.

   Then she smiled.

   "No one has ever forced me to become a monk, it's my own decision."

  Li Xin frowned slightly.

   "Sister can also get married... Husband and child."

   Jiuniang said quietly: "Teaching husbands and children is a way of life, and the ancient Buddha of Qingdeng is also a way of life. I have become accustomed to living here, and I am more and more happy and quiet, and I can't stand the troubles outside."

   She added a cup of tea to Li Xin and asked with a smile, "How is Xiaoxiao recently, maybe she hasn't come to see me for a long time."

In the past ten years, Li Xin did not come to see Cui Jiuniang much because of his taboos, but Zhong Xiaoxiao often came to visit her. However, at the beginning of the year, the family members of Jing'an Houfu, including Xiaoxiao, went out to "refuge". A few days ago I just came back, and I haven't seen Jiuniang for almost a year.

   Lord Jingan gave a wry smile,

   "That girl is deeply rooted in love, and it is estimated that it will not be long before she is clamoring for marriage."

   "That's a good thing."

   Cui Jiuniang smiled peacefully.

   "Marrying is a good thing, but you can't be like me, never marrying for a lifetime."

   Mentioning this, Li Xin sighed slightly.

   He lowered his head and took a sip of tea.

   "It was he who couldn't help my sister."

   Jiuniang shook her head, her eyes still smiling.

   "It's my life that suffers."

   Thanks to the two big guys for the reward~
