"Son, I know that the emperor has just assigned you a position, but getting married and starting a business is not in conflict after all. Come and take a look, this is a lady in Beijing specially selected by your grandmother who is suitable for you. Which one do you like?" , let's go to propose marriage."
He came to his mother's room to say hello, but in the end he was faced with a marriage urging, Zhou Zekai was helpless and had no other choice, so he could only take the picture album handed over by Zhou's mother and read it.
In fact, these picture albums do not show what I look like at all... That is, the identity and age are relatively clear. After looking through it, Zhou Zekai finally found an older girl, pointed it out, and showed it to his mother.
Zhou's mother hurried up to take a look, only to find that the girl was seventeen years old this year, and if she got engaged and married again, she would probably be eighteen... It's really too big...
"Akai, is this, this lady too old?"
In fact, Zhou Zekai is only nineteen years old this year, so it's okay to choose seventeen-year-old girls. The other girls are thirteen or fourteen years old. Zhou Zekai is not interested in those underage girls.
"That's it, mother, let grandma inquire and see if this Miss Zhang is as virtuous and virtuous as mentioned above. At her age, her son is not too young. She is older, so she can share mother's affairs Otherwise, mother will take care of her and worry about her when she comes here, I am marrying a daughter-in-law, not looking for a younger sister."
Zhou Zekai knew that in such a big environment, he had to get married. Miss Zhang looked more pleasing to the eye, and it was said above that she was virtuous and virtuous, and her family was a scholarly family, so she should be pretty good.
"Well, that's fine... I'll ask your grandma to find out."
Seeing that her son was willing, Zhou's mother didn't say anything, and planned to talk about how the young lady of this family is and why she hasn't married yet...
After finally asking her mother to urge her to marry her, she ran into Zhao Xu again after a day's work.
"I heard that my aunt is looking for a wife for you? Which one do you like? Big breasts or small breasts?"
Zhao Xu is such a straightforward person. At the beginning, he fell in love with the princess because she not only looks good, but also has a good figure. He is obsessed with big breasts and can't help himself.
Zhou Zekai ignored Zhao Xu's nervousness and said.
"Has Dong Ruolan been caught? It's been half a year, don't tell me you can't do this well? Why are you still a prince?"
The two of them were walking in a remote place, and no one heard their conversation, so when Zhou Zekai talked to Zhao Xu, he got along with friends like a friend, which made Zhao Xu a little more at ease.
When Zhao Xu heard Zhou Zekai's words, his face became a little strange, and he dragged Zhou Zekai to a more remote place, and only opened his mouth when he reached behind a rockery.
"I forgot if you didn't tell me, my men caught Dong Ruolan in the past two days, but she was pregnant!"
Zhao Xu really couldn't understand the shock on his face. Zhao Han had to abuse Dong Ruolan almost every week. Just like that, these two people had a physical relationship? Dong Ruolan is still three months pregnant? If he hadn't gotten him out now, Zhao Han's people would have found out in a few days.
"pregnant?"
Zhou Zekai turned his head to look at Zhao Xu. He was also very surprised by the news. They all knew that since Zhao Han lost his arm, he became very irritable. Those at both ends of the sky will kill people, no matter whether it is an internal eunuch or a court lady, as long as it is said that they are assigned to the fourth prince's house, they are very afraid. After all, Zhao Han is like a lunatic now. fatal.
Under such circumstances, Dong Ruolan is not only alive and well, but also pregnant. If this is not true love, neither Zhao Xu nor Zhou Zekai will believe it, okay
"Has the matter of her space been exposed?"
Thinking of this in an instant, Zhao Xu shook his head. He had already sent an undercover agent to sneak in. Every time Dong Ruolan was beaten, she was rescued, but she didn't have the space to expose herself. What about the queen.
But those who do great things are able to endure what ordinary people cannot bear.
But to be honest, compared to what Zhao Han did to those palace maids and eunuchs, he could be regarded as true love for Dong Ruolan.
"Today, I told my father and queen mother that I'm going to my grandfather's house, and let's go see Dong Ruolan together."
All along, the two of them had heard about Dong Ruolan from other people, and they had never seen him before. Now that they finally captured him, they were a little curious. What kind of thoughts made Dong Ruolan support him? Is it really the kind of mind that wants to be a master
So the crown prince Zhao Xu left the palace with Zhou Zekai. After visiting his grandfather first, he sneaked to their secret base and met Dong Ruolan who was locked up in the secret room.
At this time, Dong Ruolan's injuries had healed a lot. Hearing the movement at the door, she looked towards the door, but she saw Zhao Xu and Zhou Zekai, especially when she saw Zhou Zekai, she burst into tears.
"Brother Zhou..."
The lingering and bitter cry made Zhao Xu look at Zhou Zekai jokingly, thinking that this old ghost also has a beauty. This Dong Ruolan was originally the old ghost's fiancée, and now she is called Brother Zhou, so it's really all right. .
But he never thought that Zhou Zekai's expression changed when he heard this address, he looked at Dong Ruolan who was sitting there, and said.
"You are Lan'er? Do you remember what you gave me on my sixteenth birthday?"
The appearance and state of this person in front of him is not like the time-traveling girl from before, but it reminds Zhou Zekai of the real Dong Ruolan. Before the time-traveling girl came over, Dong Ruolan always called him Brother Zhou like that.
When Dong Ruolan heard Zhou Zekai's voice, tears rolled down while she nodded, but then she shook her head and said in a crying voice.
"Brother Zhou, I'm really not with other men, that's not me... that's really not me..."
With such a pitiful appearance, Zhao Xu also discovered the problem. Could it be... The time-traveling girl has left? Now this is the real Dong Ruolan
"That day I was washing clothes by the river, but I was accidentally pushed into the river by the villagers, and when I woke up, my body was taken by an evil spirit from somewhere... I wanted to drive away She left, but it was useless, she was not filial to her grandparents, she talked back to her grandparents, and even stole food, and the angry grandpa almost fell ill...Brother Zhou, did you come to save me?"
God knows, when Dong Ruolan was imprisoned in the Four Princes' Mansion with her own body, she simply didn't know what to do, but later found that every time she was abused, she would be able to return to her body for a period of time. It has been getting longer and longer, and until the previous month, she has completely regained her body, and she also has a spiritual spring. The belief in living supports her, which prevents her from committing suicide. Looking at it now Seeing Zhou Zekai, she was naturally very happy, thinking that Zhou Zekai saved her.
"Lan'er, now tell me in detail what happened, everything about that evil spirit."
Zhou Zekai also discovered that Dong Ruolan was not the time-traveling girl, no wonder she was able to survive such a long time of beatings, probably Dong Ruolan was here to support her.
Zhao Xu also listened carefully from the side, and then discovered that after the time-traveling girl crossed over, the original Dong Ruolan didn't die at all, but her soul was squeezed out. After watching the things that the time-traveling girl did, she had no choice but to be killed. After being caught, because the time-traveling girl was beaten and wanted to leave, she was finally wiped out, allowing the real Dong Ruolan to return to this body, and survived the beatings again and again...
Zhou Zekai and Zhao Xu, who knew all this, simply didn't know what to say. This time-traveling woman only enjoys the good things, and leaves the bad things to others, which is also extremely disgusting.
At this time, Zhao Xu was even more fortunate that he was born in the womb of his mother, and there was no such thing as taking over his identity.
But since it's Dong Ruolan, it's easy to say.
"Lan'er, that evil spirit has a spiritual spring that can cure all diseases, is it still there?"
Dong Ruolan was easy to coax. Although Zhou Zekai felt sorry for the child, the situation was already like this and he could only use it to the end. If the Lingquan was still on Dong Ruolan, she would not be able to have freedom.
"Brother Zhou, are you talking about this?"
Dong Ruolan hurriedly got the Lingquan out, and the Lingquan water splashed into the cup on the table, looking no different from ordinary water.
"Every time I was beaten, I drank this water secretly to survive. Is this very powerful?"
Dong Ruolan is only sixteen years old this year, and she is still an innocent child. The person she trusts the most at this time is of course Zhou Zekai.
So after Zhou Zekai coaxed the other party to produce a lot of spiritual springs, although he couldn't bear it, he still told her about Dong Ruolan's pregnancy.
Dong Ruolan knew that the child in her stomach turned out to be the devil who likes to beat people, her face was pale, she looked at Zhou Zekai pitifully, her face was at a loss, she always thought that she would marry Zhou Zekai, but now everything It's all ruined, she has someone else's child, she can't marry Brother Zhou...
Even though she felt uncomfortable, Dong Ruolan knew that the child could not be kept by herself, so she took the initiative to ask Zhao Xu to get rid of the child, which reassured Zhao Xu a lot. Seeing Dong Ruolan like this, she felt a little bit distressed.
It would be impossible to let Dong Ruolan go, this Lingquan is useful to him as well as to Zhou Zekai, and besides, if a little girl like Dong Ruolan was caught, the consequences would be disastrous.
After Zhao Xu and Zhou Zekai appeased Dong Ruolan, they gave her abortion pills. With the help of Lingquan, Dong Ruolan's health was naturally fine, but now that Dong Ruolan is not a time-traveling woman, Zhao Xu arranged for her a few female secret agents. Wei is a maidservant, serving Dong Ruolan. This girl's whole life has been ruined by the time-traveling girl...
