Chapter Ninety-One: Calculation

Just when everyone thought that Qin Ji's handsome and peerless cheeks were going to leave bright red fist marks, they heard the harsh "squeak" sound of the chair legs rubbing against the ground.

Qin Ji stepped back half an inch with a chair, and he could dodge Gu Zhongyi's fist.

Shan Jing's heart was lifted in an instant, and he fell back to the place in frustration, regretting why he didn't leave a crack in the door just now, so that the officials and officials could see this wonderful infighting.

Zhongshuling hurriedly started to be a peacemaker, "If you have something to say, everyone is a scholar, and the gentleman doesn't do anything." ”

Qin Ji raised his hand and pushed Gu Zhongyi's hand away, "This is the emperor's decision, what's the use of beating me?"

Gu Zhongyi was just about to speak, but Shan Jingwei jumped up and blamed himself: "If it is because of the unhappiness between Gu Shilang and Qin Sheren, I am willing not to do this Zhongshu order." You two must stop fighting, there is a strong enemy outside, or when you are united, I will go and ask the emperor for my resignation!"

"Sit down. Qin Ji opened his mouth coldly.

Shan Jingwei was stunned, but obediently returned to his original position.

Gu Zhongyi glared at Qin Ji, his eyes full of disbelief, and asked, "Why?"

Qin Ji said: "I have already said the reason just now. ”

Gu Zhongyi couldn't hold back again, and grabbed his collar angrily, "I really didn't expect you to ......"

"Yes," Qin Ji said calmly: "I didn't expect the emperor to change his mind halfway." If Gu Shilang is really curious, why don't you ask the emperor?"

"Hmph. Gu Zhongyi threw him away in disgust and returned to the opposite seat.

Zhongshu ordered: "You two are both talents, I hope you can support each other." Do your best for the emperor and your country. If there is infighting, won't it be a joke, and people with bad intentions will take advantage of the situation, and you and I will run for many years in vain, and it will not be good for me to be unsafe?"

Shan Jing hurriedly said: "What you said is that the lower officials will follow your teachings. He was full of joy, and when Zhongshuling said this, he would not object to the saints, so his path to becoming Zhongshuling became much smoother.

Qin Ji made a move, and it was really extraordinary.

Gu Zhongyi responded coldly, temporarily suppressing the anger in his stomach.

Shan Jingwei looked at the two people who were like brothers in the past, and the relationship instantly fell to the bottom at this moment. The gloating one was about to raise the corners of his mouth. It was hard to hold back.

Qin Ji was not moved by today's changes, and said: "The emperor's words, I will pass them on my behalf." There is still important work to be done, so I will not continue to bother you. ”

He dusted off the hem of his clothes. Get up and leave. Just opened the door. The officials who were attracted by Shan Jingwei's deliberately raised voice immediately dispersed.

Zhongshuling comforted a few words, and Gu Zhongyi had a dark face. Flick your sleeves and leave.

Shan Jingwei looked at Zhongshuling expectantly, and heard him say, "Since the emperor wants you to take over my position, then there are some things that must be told to you well, come with me", and hurriedly approached like a pug.

Gu Zhongyi walked out of the main room, hurriedly walked under the porch, glanced around vigilantly, and flashed into his own room.

In the room, there was already a person, standing at the desk and looking at some of the notes that were about to be presented to the emperor.

Gu Zhongyi closed the door, he heard the sound of the door closing, and spoke: "I have sent someone to keep an eye on Shan Jingwei, and now he is proud, thinking that Zhongshu Province is in power." I don't know how many people are rushing to get stuck, and I don't know how many people are waiting for the bitterness to come and be promoted by him. ”

Gu Zhongyi snorted coldly: "Shan Jing is this stupid person, and he has no self-knowledge. ”

"If he has, how dare he threaten me with the news?" Qin Ji turned around and threw the twists and turns related to the fate of many people on the table, almost knocking over the pen holder, "Let him be happy, when the time comes, uproot him." ”

Gu Zhongyi said: "Miss Yu still has no news?"

Qin Ji said: "Zhizhi will not be in danger, when Shan Jing loses her official position, I think she will return to me." ”

Gu Zhongyi frowned, "Could it be that King Yi really wants us to kill each other?"

Qin Ji narrowed his eyes, a cold and sharp light flashed in his eyes, "Yes or no, it won't be bad for you and me anyway." The next Zhongshu Shilang is not yet selected from our cronies. ”

Gu Zhongyi sighed: "I hope it's you." ”

Qin Ji smiled lightly: "Gu Shilang is too elevated, and now is not the time. ”

Gu Zhongyi patted him on the shoulder with some sighs.

Qin Ji planned to go out, "I'm going to trouble Gu Shilang to make a show these days, and when the trouble is solved, I will definitely invite you to have a glass of wine, and I hope to appreciate the light." ”

"Shan Jingwei staying in Zhongshu Province will only be a hidden danger, you and I have been planning for many years, how can we make him bad things. If I have the opportunity to get rid of him today, I'm naturally willing to make a show. ”

Qin Ji smiled at him, arched his hand, and walked out of the house.

At this time, it was the hottest time of the day, the bright sun was shining all over the earth, but Qin Ji's gaze towards the courtyard was deep and cold. It's just that I haven't seen Yu Mingzhi for a day, and although I can be sure that she won't be hurt in any way, I'm still crazy about it.

But no matter whether he knows it or not, he must pretend to be calm and not let anyone snoop into his mind.

In the past, his relatives were all dead, and he came and went without worry.

Now that I have branches, I have tasted a hundred moods.

"Qin She people, Qin She people, please stay. Shan Jingwei's laughter sounded behind him.

A murderous aura flashed in his eyes very quickly, and then he turned around very calmly to face Shan Jingwei, who was walking in high spirits.

Although Shan Jingwei's official position is not low, he has a Zhongshu order, a Gu Zhongyi in the middle, and a Zhongshu person who is humiliated and at the mercy of him, so he can only shrink his head and be a man, which has indeed been suppressed for many years. Today is the first time to raise his eyebrows, so he straightens his waist, looks extremely energetic, and stands in front of the person, as if he has become the right minister.

"What?" But he still wouldn't be polite.

Shan Jingwei said: "Just now, I was told by the Chinese book to give me all kinds of advice, which made me gain a lot. At the end of the year, when the secretary ordered Zhishi to return to his hometown, I would be able to take over smoothly, thanks to Qin Sheren's kind words in front of the emperor, if it weren't for you. I don't know how many years I have to survive, maybe I will always be pressed under Gu Zhongyi......" He paused, glancing around from the corner of his eye, "As long as I find the woman I love, Miss Guo will return to your mansion soon, rest assured." ”

At that time, you were also in danger of being headed, Qin Ji looked at him with a smile.

Under Lang Lang's sunny day, Shan Jing broke out in a cold sweat because of his eyes, and hurriedly said, "In order to thank you for this, can the people of Qin She be free tonight?

Qin Ji said quietly: "How dare you disturb the future Zhongshu Ling to spend a good day with his beloved beauty?"

Shan Jing laughed twice for "hehe". "The people of Qin She haven't got the person I want back. Who can spend a good time with me? ”

Qin Ji waved his hand, "The emperor asked me to go again, there are still many things, so let's save it." "Finished. Without looking back, he walked outside the yamen. Leave a proud back for Shan Jingwei.

Shan Jing is pouting. Turning his head in disdain, he faced the officials who greeted him.

Qin Ji came to the Xia Xinshui Pavilion in the imperial garden, and the emperor was sitting by the window. With a beautiful woman in his arms, he listened to another beauty play the piano. The queen also sat beside him, smiling, eating the fruits and melons that had been paid tribute.

After he saluted, the queen took the lead and said, "Coincidentally, I want to ask Miss Guo when she will be free in the past two days, and I want to take her to sit in the palace." ”

Qin Ji said: "Zhizhi wants to sew two quilts quickly, so that they can be used on the wedding night to have a festive picture." So...... Niangniang's good intentions, I'm afraid she can't respond for the time being, please forgive her sins. ”

"It's okay, it's okay. The queen smiled: "Your marriage is more important, and it is not too late to enter the palace when she is done." ”

"Thank you for your kindness. ”

Only then did the emperor ask the beauty to stop and say to Qin Ji: "I heard that King Cheng is back?" I plan to pick two gifts to send to him, what is Qin Aiqing's proposal? ”

Qin Ji thought for a while and said: "I heard that the Youzhou Thorn Shi has recently brought some things to Beijing, one of which is a trained poodle, with a snow-white body, looking like a lion cub, listening to people, jumping and sitting, well-behaved, cute and easy to raise." His Royal Highness King Cheng has seen countless things, and he doesn't have time to see our own, so why don't you give this poodle to His Royal Highness King Cheng?"

"Huh?" the emperor touched his chin, showing some hesitation.

The queen said: "The concubine thinks that Qin Sheren's proposal is very good, I heard that Princess Cheng is a person who likes small animals, and the two children in the family are young, lively and active, so they must also like it." And those gold and silver treasures are tired of seeing, and it is not as innovative as this one. ”

She said as she looked at Qin Sheren with a smile.

She deliberately echoed his opinion, because the poodle was favored by Zhao Shufei.

As long as Concubine Zhao Shu asks for something, she will definitely try to take it away.

Now that the emperor is estranged from Concubine Zhao Shu, she only needs to pick one or two sentences from Qin Sheren's words, and this time Concubine Zhao Shufei will be disappointed again, which makes her feel happy.

The emperor didn't hesitate for too long, and responded: "Qin Aiqing has a clever plan, so let's do it." It's better to take that dog to Chengwang's mansion with you. By the way......" He glanced at Qin Ji meaningfully.

Qin Ji understood what he meant, and arched his hand, "The minister will do it." ”

The emperor smiled and nodded.

Qin Ji followed the palace people to fetch the poodle, carefully carried it into a special golden cage, and then carried it by two chamberlains and followed him to the Chengwang Mansion.

Different from the extravagance of another prince's mansion, if it weren't for the plaque with the words "Chengwangfu" hanging on the door, no one would regard this place that looks like the ordinary three- or fourth-grade official's house as Chengwang's home.

When Qin Ji knocked on the door of Chengwang's mansion, the white-haired old porter asked with a smile, "Who are you?"

"Qin Ji, a scholar from Zhongshu, sent a gift on the order of the emperor. ”

When the old porter heard this, he immediately took a half step back in surprise, and asked Qin Ji to enter the door in a panic, "Qin Sheren, please come in, and the little ones will go and invite the prince and princess." ”

Qin Ji strode into the hall with the attendant, looking around the house, the layout was simple and elegant, although it looked inconspicuous, but it was all something that was some years old.

The maid hurriedly brought the tea, and the atmosphere did not dare to gasp and stand beside her, no matter how cute the poodle was, she did not dare to smile.

The arrival of the Qin She people seemed to make the entire Chengwang Mansion feel like a great enemy.

Not long after, King Cheng and his wife and their two children came to the hall, Qin Ji got up and saluted, the rules were perfect, and then asked the chamberlain to instruct the poodle to sit upright, paws on the palm of the person to show the Cheng Wang family, causing the two children to cheer again and again.

"The gift carefully prepared by the emperor, I hope His Royal Highness King Cheng will like it. ”

King Cheng looked more relaxed and said with a smile: "When this king was in Fanbang, he saw a snake dancing with the sound of a flute, and a black monkey that was no different from a human, but he didn't like this well-behaved and sensible poodle. Thank you for the reward. He arched his hand at the sky outside, "I will definitely enter the palace to thank the emperor another day." ”

Qin Ji touched the dog's hair, and looked at the dog's eyes as deep as a secluded pool, "It's good if the prince likes it." This person's name is Xiao Xizi, who specializes in feeding poodles in the palace, and he will take good care of this little baby for a period of time, so that the princess and the two little sons have no worries. ”

The children of the king looked at their parents with blank eyes, and eagerly wanted to get together to play with the dog.

Princess Cheng is still a little worried, after all, she is a brute, in case the child does not annoy the dog lightly or heavily, how can it be better to bite in turn?

King Cheng said: "Just let them play." ”

"But ......"

"Ask Kiko to accompany me. King Cheng waved his hand, and the children happily led the dog out, "Qin Sheren have worked hard this time, stay for a meal and then leave?"

Qin Ji listened to the laughter that was gradually fading away, and said: "The lower officials still have important matters, and it is inconvenient to stay for a long time. ”

He was about to leave, but King Cheng hurriedly stopped, "Does the emperor have nothing else to say to you?"

"Nope. Qin Ji smiled kindly, "The emperor saw that His Royal Highness was away all the year round, and he only came back once in a while, so he sent something to make His Highness's family happy." Your Highness, don't think too much. ”

King Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and thanked the emperor again in the direction of the palace.

"Then the lower official took his leave. ”

King Cheng didn't say anything more polite to him, sent him to the door of the house and said a few more words, and then let him go.

The door closed gently, completely blocking the children's laughter. Qin Ji glanced back at the somewhat mottled knocker on the door, frowned deeply, and pressed the Buddha beads on his wrist with his fingertips.

Hang Yang led the horse behind him, and he asked, "Who is Shan Jing looking for?"

"There are already whereabouts. Hang Yang replied: "After she left the Shan family, she actually stayed in the capital. Now he has bought a small house in the south of the city, relying on the money he has accumulated from the single servant before. ”

"Send someone to get the woman back now. Qin Ji narrowed his eyes, "When Shan Jingwei is in prison, send her head over." ”

He wanted to go to the moon in pairs, and he met their request - in prison, face to head. (To be continued.) )
