.Moreover, what Zhao Jingzhong couldn't believe was even more unbelievable, he didn't feel heartache, but felt relaxed, thinking about packing up and leaving Beijing quickly, and then... to pick up the baby and his mother.

So he kowtowed to Chongzhen and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness." He paused, and then said to Han Kuang, "Thank you, Mr. Han, for speaking for me."

Looking at his calm reaction, Han Kuang wondered, is this still Eunuch Zhao?

Chongzhen was also surprised. After Zhao Jingzhong left, he held his cheeks and pondered for a long time before asking Han Kuang, "Han Kuang, what do you think?"

As expected of a loyal minister, Han Kuang immediately stepped forward and clasped his fists: "Your Majesty, do you want to cut grass and roots?"

Chongzhen thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Forget it, my purpose is to weaken the power of Dongchang. Since he is no longer the admiral of Dongchang, why bother."

The dismissed officials must leave the capital within three days of receiving the decree. If you are not summoned to stay in the capital, they intend to assassinate the king and kill you, and you will be arrested and chopped down in minutes.But considering that Eunuch Zhao is his old friend, Chongzhen softened his heart and gave him a few days' grace.

But this is of no use to Lao Zhao.On the second day after receiving the decree, he was ordered to hand over the management of all affairs of the East Factory, and he tossed all day.In the afternoon, he couldn't wait to pack up his luggage, took the housekeeper and a few maidservants down, and left without even saying hello to Chongzhen.

The butler Wang Er sat outside the carriage, asked Zhao Jingzhong in the carriage to rest his eyes and said, "Grand...uh, lord, how do we go?"

"Go out of the city, go north, take the branch road next to the woods, and then go east."

He is so familiar with this road that he can walk with his eyes closed.

Miaotong didn't know that Lao Zhao's dismissal was so smooth, and thought that according to Chongzhen's temperament of exploitative madman, he would have to be detained for a few days no matter what.

She was lying on the bed, breaking off the carbon strip very irritably, feeling that time passed too slowly.

"God." She folded her hands piously and looked up at the ceiling, "If Lao Zhao can come here sooner without incident, I will definitely give him a monkey..."

After finishing speaking, Miaotong closed her mouth as if suddenly thinking of something, got up and opened the window, looked like a thief, saw no one outside, breathed a sigh of relief, and continued talking.

"It's not a big deal to give birth to a monkey. Haier brothers Maoyan and three sisters gourd dolls are also fine, even if they give birth to a football team for him to play with!" She rubbed her cheeks depressingly and sighed.

But life is full of surprises.

The old lady drank too much water during the day, so she got up at night and opened the gate to release the water. As soon as she came out of the hut, she heard a knock on the door.

Maybe it's because the folk customs here are simple, and the door is not closed at night without picking up things on the road. She didn't even ask who it was, and just walked over and opened the door.

Along the way, the housekeeper Wang Er and the maids have been discussing the purpose of their master's trip, and finally got a unified and very correct answer, that is - to pick up their wife.In fact, since Zhao Jingzhong asked the housekeeper to buy women's products, they have been full of curiosity about this future wife. It is a mystery what kind of girl can make Eunuch Zhao so interested.

So, one second before the door was opened, everyone's hearts were already in their throats, and they all wanted to see the lady of the bunker.

but……

Wang Er looked at the old lady, and then at his grandfather, a little in disbelief.

Zhao Jingzhong was also taken aback. Every time he went to the town to take a look from afar, but there was no Miaotong at the booth, so he turned back to look for her. The last time he met this old lady was when she was recovering from her injuries. thing.

The old lady couldn't see, so she didn't know who it was, so she asked, "Who is it?"

"Uh..." Zhao Jingzhong paused and said, "Old man, I'm here to pick up Miaotong."

The old lady was overjoyed when she heard the voice, but before she had time to start a conversation, she saw a figure rushing out of the room quickly, hanging firmly on Zhao Jingzhong's body like a koala.

Before everyone could react, they heard the koala shout.

"Old Zhao, Lao Zhao, you are really great! I will give you a football team right away!"

Although Old Zhao wondered why Zhao Tiezhu became a football team, but when Miao Tong rushed into his arms, he suddenly felt at ease like never before.So he raised his hand and hugged her tightly.

Seeing such a scene, Wang Er and the others couldn't help crying with joy.

Fortunately, this is the lady.

brother robbery

Miaotong wrapped herself around Zhao Jingzhong, wiped away her tears, saliva and snot.

Old Zhao turned his head to look at Wang Er and the others who were watching the play behind him, and the old lady who couldn't see but heard clearly. He coughed a little awkwardly, coaxed her a few words, and then lifted her from his body. Pull it down.

But Miaotong didn't feel shy at all, she hugged his arm close to him, almost meowing.

Wang Er is very good at flattering, he stepped forward and said: "Young one has seen Madam."

"...Ah?" Miao Tong was stunned for two seconds, then glanced at Wang Er, wondering, "Who are you?"

"Return to madam, the youngest Wang Er is the housekeeper of the mansion, and came out from Beijing to pick up madam with my master."

It was only then that Miaotong came to her senses, she looked at the servant girls standing respectfully at the side, she understood roughly, and asked Lao Zhao, "Would you like to elope with them?"

After Zhao Jingzhong heard this, he frowned and said, "What is elopement? It's such an ugly word."

"I was wrong, it's not elopement, it's moving, is it okay to move?" Miao Tong corrected with a smile.

Zhao Jingzhong was speechless. Facing Lai Jiji's Miaotong, he used to be able to say a few words with arrogance and venomous tongue, but now, he couldn't bear to even snort at her.

So he explained: "They are all old people in the house, it doesn't matter. And in the future, someone will always take care of you."

"oh oh."

In fact, these are not important to Miaotong, she only cares about whether she can live happily with Pippi Zhao in the future, even if there is no one to take care of them, the two of them can live well, not to mention, when football is born After the team, there will be no more than two people.

Thinking of this, she laughed out loud.

Others didn't understand the meaning of this hey sound, but Lao Zhao knew Miao Tong very well, knowing that she had thought of some obscene things again, so he sighed helplessly: "You..."

Seeing how affectionate they are, the old lady, as a witness of the relationship between the two, couldn't help but shed tears of excitement.

"Girl Miaotong, look at what my old lady said. Your husband has you in his heart, and he will definitely come back to pick you up. Even if he takes a concubine, he will not forget you."

Miaotong didn't think about it, just about to say "yes", when Zhao Jingzhong repeated coolly: "Take a concubine?"

The old lady wiped her tears and nodded: "Isn't that right, girl Miaotong has been angry about this for a long time."

"..."

Hearing this, Miaotong suddenly remembered what she said at the time, what old Zhao went home to marry a concubine and wanted to have a threesome, she, as a staunch main wife, firmly refused, so Lao Zhao angrily threw her away and so on.

Zhao Jingzhong looked at Miaotong, seeing her guilty face, he made a guess.

He thought for a while, took her hand, and said unhurriedly: "It's okay, I have divorced her, and you will be alone in the future."

After he finished speaking, Miao Tong didn't react, but the old lady was already so moved.

Since the road is not easy to walk at night, the group decided to stay overnight at the old lady's house and leave tomorrow morning.

Of course, this decision directly caused Miao Tong and Lao Zhao to not sleep well, you know.

Outer houses or courtyards are the daily necessities of officials. It is better to avoid the office in summer and soak in hot springs in winter. And most importantly, this is a private residence. Even if you are dismissed from office and ransacked your home, you will not be left home street.

Eunuch Zhao's outer house is in Tianjin, which is very close to the capital, so there is no need to travel long distances, which is really great.

After getting in the carriage and walking for a few miles, Miao Tong almost understood that according to the modern division method, the old lady's farmyard should belong to the suburbs of Beijing, just like Huairou Pinggu Miyun.

Miao Tong couldn't help thinking of the scene of her spring outing in Miyun when she was in elementary school, leaning on Lao Zhao's shoulder, she asked thoughtfully: "Old Zhao, every time you come to see me, does your butt hurt from riding a horse?" ?”

Before Zhao Jingzhong could answer, she continued: "It must be very painful. The day you caught me, you threw me on the horse. After running for so long, I was almost dead. Wouldn't it be more uncomfortable for you to go back and forth?" ?”

Back then, Miaotong was about to vomit out her gall. At that time, she was afraid and in pain. She thought that there would be no more painful things in the world, but now that she thought about it, she felt very happy.

But Zhao Jingzhong didn't think so. When he heard Miaotong mention what happened that night, he couldn't help but regret for a while. If he knew earlier, why would he treat her like that?He even almost used her as bait to catch Shen Lian. Now that he thought about it, he was really scared.

He stretched out his hand to embrace Miaotong into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her hair lightly, and said: "It's my fault, I will never let you suffer this kind of trouble again in the future."

Miao Tong was taken aback, she didn't expect him to say that suddenly, after thinking about the taste, the corners of her mouth were almost grinning behind her ears, she buried her face in his chest and rubbed it, and said "um".She really wanted to say, even though she thought she was going to die at that time, but if you thought about it carefully, if you hadn't arrested me then, how could we have such a sweet day?

But she swallowed the words when she reached her mouth, because she felt that it was better for the two of them to snuggle together quietly at this time.

I was enjoying such a warm moment, but someone ran out to make trouble.

Hearing a sudden cry from the coachman, the carriage stopped. Immediately afterwards, Wang Er cleared his throat and asked.

"Grandpa, this...before
