The fortune-telling princess: Marry a thousand-year-old man

Congwu was already shocked, "None of this is true."

He didn't believe how the most noble man in the palace could care about his life or death!

Lu Wan Ning continued: "It is true to say that he has never cared about Xi Ya, because he knows that Xi Ya's mother's family is the Xi family. Xi Ya was born with no worries about food and clothing, and there will be people to help him take care of it. All the connections in the palace, but you can’t, your mother comes from a humble background, if he doesn’t care about you anymore, do you think you can grow up to this big safely in this palace?”

"No, this is not true. If it is true as you say, then why do the palace maids and eunuchs outside often bully me?"

"...This is a way for him to protect you. There is no force behind you. If no one in this palace dares to bully you like this, the ministers in the court will not focus on Xi Ya, but on Xi Ya. If they pay attention to you who has no background and no money, they will be curious about why the palace people don’t dare to bully you when you obviously have nothing. If you are really noticed by the ministers, do you think you can still grow like this safely? Is it big?"

Lu Wan Ning's voice was loud at first, drowning out Cong Wu's voice. When Cong Wu gradually calmed down, she also became calm.

What she said was well-founded and easily convincing.

Congwu no longer knew how to refute.

Lu Wan Ning sighed, and then said: "You will not be imprisoned for the next few days. You can take this opportunity to inquire in secret to see if what I said is the truth."

Congwu was completely stunned.

He really couldn't believe that his father really cared about him?

Wasn't it the princess of Southern Xinjiang who was deceiving him?

He didn't know when Lu Wan Ning left.

When he was about to close the palace door, he noticed that the guard guarding the door was missing.

"You will not be imprisoned for the next few days. You can take this opportunity to make some inquiries in secret to see if what I said is true."

So is this asking him to go out and investigate on his own?

Cong Wuben didn't believe what Lu Wan Ning said. When he was about to close the door, he didn't know what he was thinking. He just wanted to go out and take a look.

See if that person really cares about him.

When he stepped out of the palace gate, he was aimless and didn't know where to start. He unconsciously came to the Department of Cherishing Fire, a place dedicated to palace charcoal fire.

Winter has gradually entered southern Xinjiang, and it is time for each palace to distribute charcoal fires.

He remembered that every year in the past, whenever he came to Xixinsi to ask for charcoal, although Xixinsi made things difficult for him, he always gave him a piece of coal.

He wanted to know, was that person also benefiting from this?

As soon as I walked to the door of Xixinsi, I saw the busy palace people inside.

He even heard mention of the coals of his palace.

"If Mr. Wu comes back this year and asks for charcoal, just remember to say a few embarrassing words. Don't deprive him of his charcoal. Be careful if you do something wrong, someone will definitely punish you."

The young eunuch who just arrived didn't know anything. He just heard that Congwu was under house arrest in the cold palace.

"General Manager, I heard that Congwu was relegated to the cold palace. Will he come again this year to ask for charcoal fire?"

The eunuch who was called the chief eunuch slapped the little eunuch on the head and said: "The first lesson our family teaches you is that in this palace, don't look down on others. Maybe one day... The people in the cold palace will become prosperous. When the time comes, you will not even have any regrets. As for Mr. Wu, His Majesty has specially warned you. It only takes a few words to make things difficult for you. You must not miss the young master’s food, clothing and clothing. Spend."

With Your Majesty taking care of you, how can you just fall down?

Cong Wu was stunned at the door. Did the man who was his father's blood really tell him this?

He refused to give up and wanted to check somewhere else. As soon as he turned around, the little eunuch in the palace noticed him.

"Young Master Congwu, why... why did you come out?"

The little eunuch just heard other little eunuchs say that he was locked up in the cold palace. Now he came out, did he escape?

still…

When the chief eunuch in charge of the Xinxing Department who had just reprimanded the young eunuch heard about it, he hurriedly looked toward the door. When he saw that it was really Congwu, his face immediately changed.

"Hey, isn't this Young Master Congwu? I heard that you are in Leng Gong now. The charcoal fire here is not like Leng Gong."

Congwu didn't take his words to heart at all, "I'm not here for charcoal fire."

He turned to go.

The chief eunuch became anxious and said, "Wait a minute," I don't know what the reason for this young master's convulsions this year is that he doesn't want charcoal fire?

There are orders from above that Congwu must not be omitted.

Just follow the instructions above and just satisfy your cravings. You must still give the portion that should be given.

Instructing the young eunuch to bring the charcoal fire that belonged to Cong Wu, the chief eunuch thrust it into Cong Wu's hand and said coldly: "That's all the charcoal fire we have today, and the Xixin Department doesn't have any extra."

He said no, but in fact, the charcoal fire of the entire palace managed by the Secretary of Xixin could not be cut off at once. The reason why he said this was because he was told by his superiors that he must beat Congwu from time to time to prevent him from getting his ideas too easily. Want something.

Congwu looked at the bag of charcoal that was forced into his arms. There was no emotion on his face, and he didn't know what he was thinking. He ignored the eunuchs who stared at him with wide eyes and turned around and left.

The chief eunuch and all the young eunuchs were left with blank expressions on their faces.

"Manager, why did Mr. Wu come out of the cold palace?"

The head eunuch shushed, "You are not supposed to know, don't ask, just go to work."

When working in the palace, you need to be diligent and don't talk too much.

The fact that Mr. Wu was able to come out of the cold palace must have been authorized by His Majesty.

From Wu You came to the weaving room in a daze, a place that specially made clothes for the palace.

He was also embarrassed, but all the winter clothes were given to him.

Same as previous years.

He did not go to other places to test, but returned to the cold palace with these two large bags of clothes and charcoal fire.

He was obviously the only one in the cold and dark palace, but he saw the figure of Southern Xinjiang Princess Lu Wanning appearing in the palace.

"Well, I didn't lie to you, did I?"

Congwu walked to the table and sat down.

Lu Wan Ning's figure sat next to him again, "After understanding this, Your Majesty, do you still want to leave?"

Congwu stood up irritably and went to pour himself a cup of cold tea.

Lu Wan Ning's figure appeared again, "He is old and does not have much time left. He needs his relatives to be with him."

Cong Wu waved his hand to disperse Lu Wan Ning's shadow. He himself had no intention of drinking tea and sat on the stool, lost in thought.

Lu Wan Ning's last words, "He is old and doesn't have much time left..." shocked Congwu.

Yes, his father is getting older, and every day he lives is one day less.

Does he really have the heart to leave him alone like this?
