Chapter 279 Han Jing's Encounter
Han Jing's health has gradually recovered in the past few days. When he saw Mrs. Zhu again, he was able to walk.
"Han Jing meets Madam."
While recuperating in the mansion, he also knew the origins of this lady.
Thinking about what happened in Zhending City, she felt that she was worthy of being the general's wife, and now even the prefect Liang had disappeared.
I inexplicably feel that it was Mrs. Zhu's work.
Zhu Mingqing said with concern: "It seems that he will be fully recovered in a few days."
Han Jing nodded politely, "Madam, please save my life again. You are as kind as a parent. If you don't mind, I would like to..."
His cheeks turned slightly red, and he always felt that he was not repaying a favor. After all, Madam Zhu didn't need a young man like him who knew nothing.
"Han Jing, can you tell me first what happened after you left Zhending?" Zhu Mingqing asked.
Han Jing's face froze, but he still confessed everything sincerely.
The journey from Jizhou that day was smooth, but after arriving at Guancheng, he realized that since he wanted to join the army, he might as well go directly to Jicheng, the border city.
He took care of himself for half a month, and was successfully selected.
However, during a small-scale competition, he accidentally injured the son of Xu Zongzhen, the defender of Jicheng, and was targeted and suppressed as a result.
In the end, there were people who wanted to kill him.
He also survived a great disaster and is now saved by Madam Zhu.
Zhu Mingqing patted his shoulder and consoled him: "Now you can settle down in the mansion and train with the other children there."
"real?"
Han Jing has heard the sounds of the martial arts training ground every day these days, and has long been aware of the different operations at Luo's house.
He probed: "If the Xu family of Jicheng knew that I was still alive, I'm afraid it would bring trouble to my wife."
Zhu Mingqing was about to ask this question: "Mr. Xu, is he connected to the Xu family in the capital?"
Han Jing nodded: "It is said so, but I don't know the details. Madam, can I still stay?"
He looked at him pitifully. Zhu Mingqing took a deep breath. Who could have thought that Han Jing, who would later pacify the Huns, unify the world, and become Luo Huai's biggest enemy, would have such an expression.
"Yes, and you can stay in the Luo family in the future, but the premise is that you can't have any second thoughts." Zhu Mingqing reminded enthusiastically.
Han Jing's expression lit up with joy, and he immediately raised his hand and swore, "As long as Madam is alive, I, Han Jing, will protect Madam and will never do anything that is detrimental to Madam and the Luo family. If I swear this, I will be struck by lightning!"
Zhu Mingqing smiled and said, "The ancients valued their promises, but people's hearts are no longer the same."
"I only see how you perform next!
Han Jing nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, Madam. I will start studying and practicing martial arts with them tomorrow. Madam, you can ask me to do anything!"
Zhu Mingqing raised his eyebrows: "Murder and arson?"
Han Jing said: "...That depends on what kind of murder or arson it is. If the victims are evil people, I, Han Jing, will definitely fulfill my mission!"
Zhu Mingqing laughed out loud: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I won't let you do anything that goes against your conscience!"
Han Jing breathed a sigh of relief. He almost agreed against his principles.
The lady saved him twice. If it weren't for her, he would have died long ago.
During the following days of recuperation, Han Jing also quickly learned from the children in the mansion.
He was literate before, but he had a very active mind, especially since he was able to go to the school run by the Luo family and enter and exit the library freely.
As soon as Han Jing got the military book, he felt as if he had caught a fish, and he felt relaxed and contented.
After Luo Huai returned home and learned that there was such a person in the mansion, he didn't care at first, but he couldn't resist Han Jing approaching him one after another.
Han Jing knew that the second young master was deeply loved by the old prince Luo. If he could make friends with him, would he be able to learn from the old prince Luo?
"Mother, does Han Jing have any special skills?" Luo Huai was very skeptical. After all, with his mother's personality, it was impossible for her to take in an orphan with no strengths at all.
Zhu Mingqing smiled and said, "You'll naturally know if you interact with him more."
Luo Huai was puzzled, but also became curious about Han Jing.
Occasionally, when he returned home to do some work, he would hear news about this person from Luo Xiao, and learned that he had made rapid progress in martial arts.
Luo Huai gradually began to pay attention.
This attention is incredible.
Naturally, you will know the other party's whereabouts.
That day, Han Jing continued to leave the house, and was stopped by someone just as he was about to enter the library.
…
Luo Fu had been locked up in the mansion for many days and was almost suffocating to death.
Unable to see her eldest brother Wang, and with her third brother also coming to persuade her, and with no one supporting her at home, Luo Fu felt like she couldn't breathe.
"Madam, the fourth young lady didn't have her meal again today." Ah Xin came over to report on the fourth young lady's situation.
Zhu Mingqing nodded slightly: "Continue to guard."
Ah Xin was worried: "The fourth young lady is in a very bad state. She keeps clamoring to see the young master of the Wang family and even said she wants to hang herself..."
If something really happens, I won’t be able to survive.
Zhu Mingqing snorted coldly, she was willing to die for a man.
"Since she's not hungry, there's no need to send her food. She's protected from the wind and rain. Just give her some water to drink."
Ah Xin was shocked. Is the lady so cruel?
Soon, everyone in the mansion followed the lady's orders. Even the monthly allowance was gone, and the clothes and jewelry that had been bought before were sealed up by the servants.
Overnight, she went from being a high-ranking young lady to a poor person with nothing.
Zhu Mingqing didn't have time to take care of her affairs, so he just ordered them not to lock her up anymore!
As long as she doesn't die, let her decide for herself.
Didn’t they say that no one cared about her? Then let’s see if her life would become happier without the things given by the Luo family.
"Madam, Jiang Feng delivered this letter." Fen Tao knocked on the door softly and entered.
Zhu Mingqing opened it and saw that it was as he expected.
…
The front yard of Huaxiang Building is now bustling with people, and even many of the twelve courtyards, including Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, have been booked.
But near the back door, there is a quiet courtyard.
It is not open to the public.
The maid served the tea and slowly walked out.
There is the faint sound of bamboo humming in my ears, and deep in the small bamboo building, my restless heart can't help but calm down.
Zhu Mingqing lay on the bamboo chair, closed his eyes and enjoyed the rare quiet time.
Outside the door, the sound of a wheelchair turning was heard.
Looking up, she didn't stand up, but nodded calmly: "I'm coming."
Luo Tingshan looked around, finding peace and quiet in the midst of the hustle and bustle: "Your place is a good place to go."
There are not too many gorgeous decorations, only patches of green bamboo. When the wind blows, bamboo waves are formed, mixed with the not-too-harsh sound of insects. It is a rare quiet place.
"If you want to come, you can come anytime." Zhu Mingqing said, "Special offer, one tael of silver a day!"
Luo Tingshan was taken aback, then smiled and said, "Then I'll be honored to refuse."
"How are you going to resolve Luo Fu's issue?" Zhu Mingqing asked directly.
Luo Tingshan pursed his lips slightly, his eyes falling on the woman opposite him: "Can I ask you..."
Zhu Mingqing refused directly: "No, marriage is a matter of life and death, and my parents have the final say. I am only a figurehead now, so it is better for you, General Luo, to make the decision."
