Princess [rebirth]

Chapter 67 Hesitation

Dou Zhirong was brought into the Lizheng Hall. As soon as she entered the main hall, she saw Zhuo Jingfan sitting on the main seat. Her legs were swollen and painful because of kneeling all night. I can't move anymore.Seeing her trembling and weak appearance, Zhuo Jingfan didn't let her salute, and gave her a seat. Dou Zhirong was feeling uneasy. Speaking of which, she was only about the same age as the third princess when she met her father. Rebelling against such a big event, I don't know what to do.

Zhuo Jingfan looked at the little lady in front of him, and sighed in his heart, Dou Ze really committed a crime, he wanted to die and didn't want to live, but he dragged down the entire Huai Palace.In fact, he knew that Dou Zhirong knelt outside the hall last night, but he still let the other party kneel all night, he knew that Dou Chun must have done the same thing, because Dou Xun and Dou Zhirong had to put on a show, since they came to apologize sincerely Yes, then you have to let others see your determination.

The reason why Zhuo Jingfan made Dou Zhirong kneel all night was because Dou Zhirong wanted to plead guilty, and secondly, he wanted to test the other party, to see if the other party would feel resentment because of his avoidance of seeing each other. After all, Dou Zhirong Like Fu Jue, Dou Xun will become Dou Chun's helper in the future, and the people around Dou Xun must be carefully selected, so he will be cruel enough to let Dou Zhirong, a little lady, kneel outside the hall all night.

And seeing Dou Zhirong at this time, Zhuo Jingfan nodded inwardly. He was very satisfied with Dou Zhirong's performance. There was no trace of resentment in his eyes, and when he saw him, his attitude and tone were respectful and polite. Considering the other party's age, it was very good to be able to behave like this. Although King Huai Dou Ze was very unreliable, his two sons and daughters Princess Huai taught her very well.

"Don't worry, the county lord. Since the sage left you and the prince in the palace, he has his own considerations. You can relax and wait for the sage's will." Zhuo Jingfan didn't beat around the bush and said directly.

"No." Dou Zhirong's face was pale, and she managed to suppress the panic in her heart. Although she really wanted to meet the saint in person and intercede for brother, the saint didn't just see him whenever he wanted. But if you don't have self-knowledge, relying on this kind of grace to try to break into the Temple of Manna, that would be stupid.

"Forget it, let me tell you one more sentence. Even if the prince's title and title are deprived, the prince's surname is still Dou. Do you understand this?" Zhuo Jingfan saw the uncontrollable panic and excitement in Dou Zhirong's eyes. Worried, he sighed and said lightly.

"... Nuo, I understand." Dou Zhirong was slightly stunned, and after going through Zhuo Jingfan's words in her mind, she still couldn't believe it. What did Lang Jun mean that brother can save his life?When she and elder brother decided to kneel outside the hall to plead guilty, they had no idea. After all, the crime committed by her father was a serious crime against the nine clans.Unexpectedly, she could get Lang Jun's words now, Dou Zhirong really felt that it was nothing more than kneeling for one night, as long as her elder brother's life could be saved, it didn't matter if she took her life.

After Zhuo Jingfan appeased Dou Zhirong, he sent her back to the side hall to have a good rest, and then went to Liangyi Hall, wanting to see how Dou Chun was doing.When he came to Liangyi Hall, he heard that Dou Xun was still kneeling outside Ganlu Hall, he raised his eyebrows and paused, then turned to Ganlu Hall, but he just watched Dou Xun from a distance for a while, Then he went back to the study room of Liangyi Hall.

"I'm back, I heard that you went to see Dou Xun?" Dou Chun put down the memorial in his hand as soon as he saw him, and glanced at Lu Fu, and asked him to leave with the servants, before asking road.

"It's not counted as seeing, just taking a look from a distance." Zhuo Jingfan replied with a smile, walked to the desk and sat down, Dou Chun raised his eyebrows after hearing this, "What did you see?"

"Duke Huai's son is resolute." Zhuo Jingfan stretched out his hand to take a memorial, opened it and said calmly.

"It's only been a day, and I can't see it yet, but my aptitude and background are good. I knelt all night, and I said that I didn't even move, and my face didn't look haggard. Don't train him." Dou Chun didn't mind Zhuo Jingfan's movements, and pushed all the memorials aside, allowing him to read them.

"Anyway, she is the daughter of the He family in the northwest. She is weak, so she doesn't want her children to suffer like her. Besides, Duke Huai is a dignified prince. There are no precious medicinal materials in the palace, and there are so many imperial physicians in the palace. , isn't it easy to take care of your body?" Zhuo Jingfan put down the memorial and said lightly.

"That's right. I still remember that the royal father gave many gifts to Duke Huai's mansion in the past. At that time, I was quite puzzled. The relationship between the royal father and Duke Huai must not be very good, but he took good care of his wife and daughter. Now Come to think of it, it's probably because of the He family's relationship." Dou Chun sighed, and there was still a doubt in his heart, but it was hard to say it out, after all, it was related to the reputation of the former emperor and Princess Huai, and now both of them are going to No, it's no fun to go through those old accounts again.

"After this battle, the He family will definitely need to recuperate for several years before recovering. What about the area in the northwest? If the He family falls, those savages who are ready to move outside the pass may take advantage of it." Zhuo Jing Fan frowned, feeling quite worried.

"The He family has been operating in the northwest for so long, and their strength should not be underestimated. And this time I plan to let Fu Jue and the He family go back to the northwest together." Dou Chun pondered for a while, and then said his plan.

"Let Fu Jue go back to the northwest with the He family?" Zhuo Jingfan was stunned, if Fu Jue and the He family went back to the northwest, what about the capital?Wasn't Princess Fu Jue Shang the one who made it easier for her to walk in the capital?

"Of course it's not for him to go there in a fair manner. Dou Wan's Tang Muyi is near the northwest, so it's fine for the son-in-law to take the princess to the fiefdom." Dou Chun tapped his fingers on the table and squinted his eyes.

"You want Dou Wan to go too?" Zhuo Jingfan was a little surprised, and Dou Chun nodded, "By the way, try Dou Wan's ability, it's completely different inside and outside the palace, and Dou Wan can adapt to it in the palace." Just because she's doing well doesn't mean she can behave well even when she's out of the palace and encounters troubles."

"Alright, after all, Fu Jue will be your confidant in the future, if something goes wrong with Dou Wan, it will be very bad for you and Fu Jue." Zhuo Jingfan nodded, knowing that Dou Chun wanted to give Dou Wan a chance However, if Dou Wan is really a good person, with her intelligence and wit, she can take the opportunity to gain Fu Jue's trust and love.

After all, even though the sage is married, the sage cannot interfere with the relationship between Fu Jue and Dou Wan, because Fu Jue may hold more weight in the sage's mind than Dou Wan.But the sage would not just watch his sister be a widow, so he planned to give them a chance to get along with each other. First, they could test Dou Wan's depth, and second, they would also allow their young couple to enhance their relationship. The younger sister's heart of love and affection is gone.

"By the way, how long will it take for the army to arrive in the capital?" Zhuo Jingfan temporarily put aside the topic of Fu Jue and Dou Wan, and asked about the army's current location and marching speed.

"Fu Jue escorted King Huai to go first, and He Zheng led the army behind." Dou Chun pulled out a secret report and handed it to Zhuo Jingfan.

"I heard you mention it a while ago, Duke Huai seems to have a will, what's going on?" Zhuo Jingfan asked while flipping through the secret report.

"This is what my father told me before he died. This is also the reason why he has not touched Duke Huai for so many years. I heard that my grandfather loved Duke Huai very much. And make King Huai the crown prince." Dou Chun said in a low voice.

"And then?" Zhuo Jingfan raised his eyebrows. This period of history was only briefly mentioned in the history books of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Hearing what Dou Chun said now, it is not difficult for him to imagine the hardships of the late emperor at that time, but he was not at all. I have never heard of a will, and it is not recorded in the history books, so I don't know if there is a will.

"Father said that Duke Huai dared to make trouble because of the edict." Dou Chun sighed, but Zhuo Jingfan didn't care. , let’s just say that he got involved in the rebellion this time, no amount of will can save his life!”

"I didn't expect that Duke Huai could bring himself to such a level." Dou Chun was speechless when he mentioned this. It stands to reason that although Dou Ze is not destined for the throne, he has a will, so he can live a smooth life. Shun Shui, after all, as long as he didn't make too big a mistake, the late emperor would have nothing to do with him, and on the contrary, he could still cause some obstacles to the late emperor because of the will.And after the late emperor left, he could use the edict to continue jumping in front of Dou Chun, but he turned the situation that was beneficial to him into unfavorable.

"It doesn't matter if he doesn't take out the will now, it's better for us to take it out, and it just happens to use the will to protect Dou Xun and Dou Zhirong, so that those courtiers have nothing to say." Zhuo Jingfan rolled his eyes, and suddenly thought of this best of both worlds method.

"You and I wanted to go together, and I just wanted to use that edict to protect the son and the county lord." Dou Chun smiled, feeling that he and Fanfan really had a tacit understanding, and their thoughts often coincided with each other. In many cases, you can understand the other party's thoughts without saying much at all. This feeling is really good.

Zhuo Jingfan saw Dou Chun's smile rippling, his eyelids twitched, and when he was about to find an excuse to leave the study, Dou Chun had already stood up, walked around the desk and rushed towards him.Zhuo Jingfan was thrown by Dou Chun, and was immediately pressed to the ground by the other party. Fortunately, there was a layer of soft cushions on the ground, but even so, he was still shocked by Dou Chun's movements.

"Fanfan...Fanfan..." Dou Chun rubbed against him indiscriminately, calling him continuously, Zhuo Jingfan was a little weak from his rubbing, but he still didn't forget to shout in a low voice: "What are you doing?! It’s broad daylight, and this is a study!”

"Fanfan, it's great to have you." Dou Chun didn't care about Zhuo Jingfan's refusal at all, the more he rubbed against the fire in his heart, the more he burned him, and finally he simply pulled him up, and then dragged him into the inner room in a hurry.There was a bed in the inner room, Dou Chunhou pressed Zhuo Jingfan on the bed anxiously, pulled the other's skirt with both hands, and kissed the other's face carelessly with his lips.

"What's wrong with you today?" Zhuo Jingfan was confused by him, he wanted to push him away, but he was also a little bit reluctant, but rolling on the bed in broad daylight, it was really a bit unseemly.

"I'm happy in my heart." Dou Chun moaned on Zhuo Jingfan's body, not at all as serious and majestic as he usually is in front of the officials. Dou Chun's closeness and happiness.He can feel that Dou Chun's attitude towards him has not changed since he ascended the throne, and he trusts him even more than before, which makes his already softened heart soften again and again.

"What are you happy about?" Zhuo Jingfan asked warmly.

"Fanfan and I have a good understanding." Dou Chun said with a smile, although his movements and tone were a bit playful, but his eyes were incomparably serious and sincere, full of affection, which instantly disintegrated Zhuo Jingfan's refusal.

"Use this trick every time!" Zhuo Jingfan said bitterly. Whenever Dou Chun wanted to do that, he liked to stay by his side first. The numb eyes stared at him, making him unable to say a word "no". If he still refused, Dou Chun would definitely soften himself with a kiss next.

"Fanfan is the best." Dou Chun smiled, lowered his head and kissed Zhuo Jingfan lightly. He was telling the truth. In his heart, no one could compare to Zhuo Jingfan. He needed help and protection the most. Zhuo Jingfan was the one who protected him when he was young, and that period of time when they supported each other but tested each other has always been the best memory in my heart.

Zhuo Jingfan looked into Dou Chun's eyes, saw through the other party's thoughts, and felt warm in his heart. During those days when Dou Chun was pretending to be stupid, he really had a very happy time. I don't admit that I miss that one-lip Dou Chun.Dou Chun can see his thoughts, so when they get along in private, sometimes Dou Chun will act according to his heart, show his immature side in front of him.

For Dou Chun, it's not a bad thing to play tricks and show weakness in front of the one he loves. Why put on airs and push the partner who should be a heart-to-heart farther and farther away?He doesn't know how other couples get along with each other, but to him, Fanfan is the greatest, and whatever Fanfan says is right.And he is also willing to pamper and coax Fanfan, because Fanfan is very measured and never arrogant, which makes him want to bring the best to the other party, so he agrees to share the country with the other party After all, without Fanfan, he would really be a loner, even if he was sitting on the throne, he would definitely feel lonely and boring.

Zhuo Jingfan and Dou Chun were entangled on the bed, and soon their clothes fell off. Because Dou Chun paid great attention to Zhuo Jingfan's body, he put ointment on the places where they were alone, in case for need.In addition, since the first time, Zhuo Jingfan's medicated bath and maintenance have not been interrupted, so the two of them are getting more and more compatible on the bed, making Dou Chun wish he could die on Zhuo Jingfan's body many times.

Only Dou Chun still felt sorry for Zhuo Jingfan, no matter how well maintained he was, he did not dare to indulge too much, and this time was no exception, after Dou Chun gently ate Zhuo Jingfan twice, he died down.He hugged Zhuo Jingfan who was also sweaty, and the two leaned against each other panting lightly, and his hands even pressed lightly on the other's waist.

"Is it okay?" Dou Chun asked softly, his eyes were almost drowning in tenderness and affection, Zhuo Jingfan glanced at him, and buried his face in the other's chest, no matter how many times he looked at him, Dou Chun's eyes always It made his heart beat faster, and he didn't dare to look at him.After all, there is still one thing hidden in his heart, which makes him unable to face Dou Chun calmly, so every time Dou Chun looks at him affectionately, he will always pretend to avoid it in embarrassment.

"En." He leaned against Dou Chun's chest, and responded softly, while thinking in his heart, should he confess to Dou Chun?But his own background is so shocking, what if Dou Chun treats himself as a monster after confessing?As long as he thinks that Dou Chun may look at him with fear and disgust, his courage to confess will disappear.

But if you keep hiding it from Dou Chun, is it fair to Dou Chun?He didn't believe that Dou Chun couldn't see his changes and strangeness, but Dou Chun didn't ask anything, which made him feel guilty and guilty.Zhuo Jingfan became more and more annoyed, he couldn't help sighing softly, his breath sprayed on Dou Chun's bare chest, causing Dou Chun to tremble all over, really wishing he could overwhelm him again.

"It's fine, why are you sighing?" Dou Chun secretly took a deep breath, suppressed the heat in his heart, and stretched out his hand to gently stroke Zhuo Jingfan's hair.

"...It's nothing, I'm just upset because I think about those things in the court." Zhuo Jingfan was silent for a while, and said lightly, Dou Chun's eyes flashed a little sad, but then he cheered up again, don't be afraid, Fanfan will one day He told himself that he did not believe that his sincerity and perseverance could not impress Fanfan. ...

******

When the army was still far behind, Fu Jue and Zuo Jinwuwei escorted Huai King Dou Ze back to the capital first. They did not disturb anyone and sneaked into the palace under Dou Chun's arrangement.Dou Ze was secretly imprisoned in Dali Temple, under the watchful eye of Dou Chun's confidantes, while Fu Jue went to see Dou Chun in the Ganlu Hall after nightfall.

Dou Chun acted this time to avoid the forbidden army in the palace. Ever since Zhuo Jingfan pointed out the suspiciousness of Mu Xuan, Dou Chun sent many people to investigate secretly. Not long ago, he even discovered Mu Xuan and the third princess. Meeting in private made Dou Chunzi do his best to guard against the other party.

Fu Jue disguised himself and was led by Youfu into the side hall of Ganlu Hall. As soon as he entered the side hall, he found that there were not only saints in the hall, but also Zhuo Lang who had caused many disputes in the court.

Fu Jue hurriedly saluted and greeted the two of them. The saint shouted and gave him a seat. After Fu Jue sat down, he secretly glanced at Mr. Zhuo Lang. Astringent, but compared to the appearance of Xiao Langjun three years ago, the outline has grown a lot, and it can be seen that he will be handsome in the future.Moreover, he sat beside the saint without showing any timidity. His whole body exuded a graceful and majestic temperament, which was incomparably harmonious with the saint's rigid and majestic aura.

Fu Jue's heart skipped a beat. Just now the thought of "a couple born in heaven" flashed through his mind, so he quickly lowered his eyes and suppressed the thoughts in his heart.

"Fu Jue, you have made great achievements this time, not only beheading the two kings of Qin and Chu, but also capturing King Huai alive. It's really hard work." Sitting on the upper seat, Dou Chun said calmly.

"The sage's absurd praise, I really don't dare to be a humble minister, I just tried my best, this is because of the help of Mr. He and He's army to put down the chaos, so that my minister is not disgraceful." Fu Jue hastily replied respectfully. road.

"You don't need to be humble, you and the He family have contributed to the chaos this time, and I will not treat you badly." Dou Chun waved his hand, said gently, paused, and then said: "I think you should have heard that I have I will give you a marriage, and you don’t have to rush to court when you come back, just rest at home for a while before we talk about it.”

"No, my minister complies." Fu Jue knew that the sage had pointed out the four princesses to him. He had already received the hint from the sage before he set out on the expedition. Follow the sage's will, even if the sage pointed out a gentleman to him today, he would not even frown.

"Fu Jue, the fourth princess is the daughter-in-law chosen for you by the sage and I. I hope you will treat her kindly in the future." Zhuo Jingfan couldn't see his thoughts from Fu Jue's face, but even Fu Jue was dissatisfied in his heart, and he probably didn't dare to show it on his face, so he didn't care what the other party thought, and spoke directly.

"No, I can save you." Fu Jue did not expect that Mr. Zhuo Lang could speak without the permission of the saint, and the saint also acquiesced to his beating on him. It seems that Mr. Zhuo Lang is really as rumored by the outside world Mr. Zhuo Lang is so favored, and Mr. Zhuo Lang deliberately mentioned the fourth princess. It seems that the fourth princess should have caught Zhuo Lang's eyes, so Fu Jue quickly weighed in his heart what attitude he should use to treat the fourth princess.

After Dou Chun asked some more details about the chaos, he waved Fu Jue away. After Fu Jue left, Dou Chun turned to look at Zhuo Jingfan, "What do you think?"

"It's not obvious at the moment. He will know after seeing the fourth princess." Zhuo Jingfan said flatly.

"Yes, even if he is dissatisfied with the finger marriage, he will pretend to be happy." Dou Chun turned the jade finger in his hand and sneered. Zhuo Jingfan knew that the other party was talking about the Fu family. The Fu family's pretentiousness also sighed in their hearts.

"How is Taifu Fu's health?" Zhuo Jingfan didn't answer his question, but mentioned Taifu Fu in a low voice.

"It's okay now, but I don't know what will happen in winter. The Taifu has an old illness, and it won't be long if it is delayed. It is better to let Fu Jue get married as soon as possible before the Taifu gets sick." Dou Chun knew What Zhuo Jingfan meant was that if the Grand Tutor went, Fu Jue would definitely keep his filial piety, and it would be another three years, so he was afraid that something might go wrong.

"It's just that the national mourning period hasn't passed yet, so I don't know if the Grand Tutor can afford to wait." Zhuo Jingfan sighed, and Dou Chun was also very distressed when he heard the words.

"I will let people keep an eye on Fu's family." Dou Chun nodded, he will let the imperial physicians of the Imperial Medical Office stand by and protect Taifu Fu's health. No matter what, Taifu Fu must survive Fu Jue's life Hunli is.
