Chapter 230 - Children (2)
"Money?" Vanity? Status? For people like King Rui, with a family like his, what did he need? "A sense of identity." Qiu Jinzhi said.
He circled around Bai Ze and said: "Everyone has a competitive spirit, their methods are different. To King Rui, he had to compete in who was stronger than him. What he sought was fame and the recognition of the emperor. His record. "
For a long time, this was the first time Bai Ze had talked to her about this. Usually, he would play with her, or go eat delicious food, or make fun of Zheng Li and the others.
"They are all Prince, so they are all destined to be like this, right?" Bai Ze said.
Qiu Jinzhi shook his head once more. Perhaps, the emperor's throne was not destined to be given to the Seven Prince s, so they had sent him far away from the political whirlpool. On the other hand, if these Prince s were willing to stay, they are already prepared to last for a long time. Right now, he is truly alone, but their might is still there. " Qiu Jinzhi said.
"Are you sure you want to choose King Rui?" Three points of temptation and two points of invitation. The remaining five points were a joke.
Bai Ze's eyes slightly shook, and she said: "No, you're lying to me, you're definitely lying to me."
"How could I lie to you?"
Bai Ze: "You want to trick me into joining your faction. I won't go. "
"Why? Isn't my place good? With the presence of the emperor, he chose good trees to live on. Natural selection This is the law. "You didn't do anything wrong." Qiu Jinzhi said.
Bai Ze refuted. It was my idea from the beginning to the end, and I have always believed in my choice. "
"He has never treated you as a person, a chess piece that can be abandoned at any time. Haven't you seen that?" Ever since Bai Ze had pledged his allegiance to King Rui, he had not felt good. When he returned later on, Bai Ze had done a lot of things, but because he was there, the emperor did not know which side Bai Ze was on.
Qiu Jinzhi knew that she was King Rui's person.
Recently, Prince Rui and the Crown Prince had been fighting so fiercely that someone could be pushed out as a stepping stone at any time. From beginning to end, Qiu Jinzhi still could not understand what kind of help they had, and what they had were only their own obsessions.
What Bai Ze did the most was to listen to King Rui and block the way for the crown prince every day. Normally, the crown prince would make King Rui feel uncomfortable on the surface on the next day. However, Qiu Jinzhi felt extremely uncomfortable in his eyes.
Bai Ze lowered her eyes and looked at the ground, her bland and slanted figure drawing three figures. No need to try and persuade me. From now on, you will walk your yang path, and I will walk my Bridge of Helplessness. It's better if you don't contact me too much. " With that, Bai Ze turned and left without looking back.
Qiu Jinzhi looked at the shadow on the ground.
A gust of wind blew over, confusing Qiu Jinzhi's eyes. When he opened them again, all he saw was a lonely shadow on the ground.
He turned around and took a folding fan from his waist. He looked at the sun hanging in the west. It was time to get off work.
"Let's call it a day!" Qiu Jinzhi cleared his throat.
Walking on the busy streets, he looked around for delicious fruits and happened to hear some children singing nursery rhymes. "Heaven and earth are dark yellow, the universe is desolate, the sun and moon are full, and all the nights are spent …" Wasn't this used as a count the time he was selling the candied fruits?
A child who was walking on the road saw Qiu Jinzhi who was about to eat a pear and asked: "Brother, did you buy candied fruits today?"
Bai Ze pinched her small, meaty face and said, "I won't sell it today."
"So are we selling pears today?" the child asked again.
Bai Ze said: "I won't sell it today either."
"The child was wronged." Is it because that black-faced uncle is not here today, so he's not selling? "
"Yeah, next time, come back when Big Brother has time to sell it." Qiu Jinzhi coaxed the child.
The child asked, "Will you continue memorizing it?"
"Yes, I will carry on." Qiu Jinzhi laughed.
"Then brother, can you teach me a few more words?"
Qiu Jinzhi frowned but crouched down, "Do you really want to learn?"
The child nodded vigorously. His eyes were filled with a thirst for knowledge.
"Mm …" "Then can you read?"
The child shook his head.
"Who's in your family?"
The child said. My mother. "
"Where's your father?"
Child: "I don't have a father." The child also looked to be half a year old.
"No father. "Haha, then where do you live?" Qiu Jinzhi rubbed the child's head and asked.
The child pointed at the Wind Moon Restaurant that was not far away.
Qiu Jinzhi was startled as he looked at the flower pavilion. Well, I see. Can I see your mother? " The child's round eyes rolled back and forth. It was unknown what he was thinking.
"Big brother, I'll bring you there." He led the way at the front.
Bai Ze quietly followed behind the child.
When a woman saw the child pulling Qiu Jinzhi towards the Wind Moon Restaurant, she reached out her hand to pinch the child's chubby little face and said, "Tiger head, you're asking your mother for guests again?"
The child took the woman's hand away and said. Hello elder sister Chun. "
Qiu Jinzhi also nodded slightly.
Elder sister Chun couldn't help but take liberties with such a handsome man.
She pulled Qiu Jinzhi's arm and said, "Sir, you should come over to play tonight when you have time ~"
Qiu Jinzhi rubbed the child's head, since it was the case, the child had to have heard about it many times.
"Elder sister Chun, you're flattering me."
"It's rare for our Windy Moon Restaurant to see you like this." As he spoke, his hand had already reached Qiu Jinzhi's chest. Qiu Jinzhi blocked the child's line of sight.
"Elder sister Chun, please lend it to me." He stepped to the side just in time to make elder sister Chun miss. From this angle, everything was controlled just right.
In the blink of an eye, he had already passed through the crowd. They had only exchanged a few words.
Qiu Jinzhi patted the tiger's head. "Continue to lead the way."
"Here." The child pulled Qiu Jinzhi's hand and said.
Upstairs, Qiu Jinzhi followed the child into a room. The room was not very large, with only a bed and a dressing table. There was also a Table that received guests. The tea on the Table had not been cleaned up yet, so the window in the house was open, as if it was getting fresh air.
"The child rushed over to the woman who was putting on makeup in front of the dressing table." Mother! I brought the brother who sells candied fruits over. " His tone sounded like he was taking credit for something.
Qiu Jinzhi looked at the child who was only eight years old.
The woman rubbed her child's head as she looked up at Qiu Jinzhi, stunned for a moment.
