Old Madam Qin raised her feet, crossed the threshold, and entered the main house: "You don't need to talk to me about your official affairs, I just care about the safety and well-being of my children and grandchildren." You're tired today, so go down and rest early. ”

Qin Ji said goodbye to the old woman Qin, lowered his hand and retreated, Qin Lun followed, and the father and daughter came to Xu's room, where Xu was already waiting.

"Why did Daddy cheat on Grandmother today?" Qin Lun closed the door and immediately asked.

Qin Ji sat down at the round table covered with Su embroidery, poured himself a cup of tea and said, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you." ”

Xu on the side was puzzled: "What kind of dumb riddle are you father and daughter playing?" ”

Qin Lun said: "Daddy just said to my grandmother that the clothes of the concubine were originally handed over to the Shu Brocade Bureau for weaving, and then transferred to us, which is a big problem. Our Jiangzhou weaving has always been only responsible for the beds and sheets in the palace, never weaving clothes, and will never offend the concubine because of this. Daddy, what happened to you in the public middle school a while ago, which made the whole house panic? ”

Qin Ji sighed, seeing that he couldn't hide it from Qin Lun, he had to tell the truth: "Hey, this matter is complicated, and it also involves your uncle in Jingzhong." ”

Xu Shi was even more puzzled: "Didn't Qin Quan just be promoted to the inspector of the Hanlin Academy a year ago, you sighed at that time, looking very unhappy, I was still strange." ”

"You think promotion is a good thing?!" Qin Ji rushed at Xu, sighed, and said slowly:

"My younger brother, you know, since he was a child, he was talented and good at reading, and he was ambitious as a young man, and he had a smooth career all the way. But he is too smooth, and he is too sincere, and he doesn't know how to protect himself in the sinister officialdom. ”

"I heard that today's saints are also in favor of changing the law," Qin Lun added tea for Qin Ji and handed the tea cup to his father, "Daddy should be happy for his uncle." ”

"Happy fart! You don't know that this is the complication of officialdom. Today's saints are stubborn and suspicious, although they support the change of the law on the surface, in fact, how can they be willing to really change in their hearts, the thousand-year-old tree, the foundation of 10,000 years, can not be moved in the slightest, but in the name of changing the law, to exclude a few dissidents in the court. Qin Ji said.

Qin Lun was silent when he heard this, and Xu asked, "Then how did these things get involved in Lun'er's marriage again?" ”

Qin Ji sighed and continued: "Today, the Holy Lord favors Meng Guifei, Meng Guifei's father Meng Gui is an old minister of the Three Dynasties, and he supported the new king at that time, so he made great efforts......

Xu nodded and said, "I know all this." ”

"But there's something you don't know!" Qin Ji continued angrily, "My younger brother who can't make it, if you say that he will change the law, he will change the law, no matter how much he changes, he can't change to Meng Gui's head!" ”

"What?" Xu was originally sitting, but he was so frightened that he stood up suddenly.

Qin Ji asked Xu to sit down, and then said: "Then the prime minister Lord Wang is a shrewd person, he does not clash with Meng Gui head-on, puts Qin Quan on the bar, and asks him to lead several civil officials to jointly write a letter to persuade Meng Gui to tell the old man." ”

Qin Lun was puzzled: "Father said that Meng Gui is the elder of the Three Dynasties, then he is already old, why should my uncle do it many times?" ”

"Exactly." Xu Shi responded, "Qin Quan is the supervisor of the Hanlin Academy, and the impeachment of the minister has nothing to do with his duties." ”

Although Meng Gui is old, he has many protégés, and he is the one who is most disapproving of changing the law in the court. Lord Wang forced Meng Gui to tell the old man, but in fact, he beat Meng Gui's students not to hinder the change. Qin Ji explained.

"Didn't that uncle offend a vote in the court?" Qin Lun came back to his senses.

"Exactly." Qin Ji nodded helplessly.

"It's strange that my father didn't tell my grandmother the truth today, it turned out that it was because my uncle was involved." Qin Lun said, "Then today's lady is actually invited by my uncle?" ”

Qin Ji smiled bitterly and said, "How could your stunned uncle think of this!" I think eighty percent is the idea of the Sixth Emperor Uncle. ”

"Uncle?" Qin Lun was surprised, but when he thought about it carefully, the only one who could make Mrs. Wu move was indeed the Sixth Emperor Uncle. Qin Lun's aunt Qin Pu married the sixth brother of the former emperor and died in only one year, but this uncle has always taken good care of the Qin family.

"Then what do you mean, Lun'er has to enter the palace?" Xu asked.

Qin Ji was silent, and said to Qin Lun for a while: "Lun'er, you go back to the room first, I will rest here today, discuss with your mother again, and talk about it tomorrow." ”

Qin Lun exited the door, curly grass waited anxiously outside, and as soon as he saw Qin Lun come out, he asked, "How is Miss?" Could it be that you really want to enter the palace? ”

Qin Lun bowed his head and said nothing, Curly Cao took a silk cloak on his arm and put it on for her, and the two of them went to the Youxiang Garden where Qin Lun lived. Along the way, Curly Cao told him about meeting Cao Qin today, and Qin Lun only said disdainfully: What should he do.

Qin Lun entered Youxiang Garden, Rumei and Lianzhu greeted him, and asked the same question: How is it?

Qin Lun saw that Rumei was wearing only a single coat, took off his cloak and put it on for her, and several people went to the inner room together.

After entering the house, Qin Lun gave up his seat to Rumei, where did Rumei have the heart to sit, and only dragged Qin Lun to ask: "Could it be that your marriage with Cao Ling is just like this?" ”

Qin Lun sat in front of the dressing mirror, Lianzhu came over to remove the bun on her head for her, Qin Lun took off the hairpin ring jewelry on her body and was silent.

"Oh, Miss, you're going to kill me in a hurry!" Rumei walked anxiously behind Qin Lun.

"Auntie, don't go any further." Qin Lun turned around, grabbed Rumei's hand and said, "I just listened to my father's meaning, and the matter of entering the palace is ** out of ten." ”

"How's that going to work? You and Cao Gongzi have already decided, and this marriage is also said to be withdrawn? Rumei pulled her hand back in surprise and said.

Qin Lun pursed his lips, pulled off the last hairband on his head with his hand, and his black hair fell down like a waterfall, and said, "What is the matter in this world that has been decided?" Everything is variable, even if you get married, there is no way to remarry. ”

"But you and that Cao Gongzi are talented and beautiful with each other, don't you think it's a pity?" Rumei is more anxious than Qin Lun.

"What's the pity." Qin Lun carefully untied his belt and jade pendant in front of a full-length bronze mirror inlaid on a mahogany screen, and said to himself in front of the mirror: "We are just satisfied with each other's appearance, and we don't know anything about temperament. Cao Ling is an outstanding talent, but it is unknown whether she will be a good husband in the future. The suffering of our high gate and deep house is not much faster than entering the palace. ”

Ru Mei felt empathy and nodded: "It's just that this matter of entering the palace has never been mentioned, why is it so urgent today?" ”

Qin Lun pulled Rumei to sit down on the edge of the embroidery bed, and sent Lianzhu curly grass to pour hot water to freshen himself, and when the two went out, he quietly said to Rumei: "Auntie is so confused, Chun'er has never been married in the fourteenth year this year, don't you understand?" ”

Shocked.

Qin Lun continued: "Since there must be one person in our family who will enter the palace, I would rather that person be me. ”

"But ......" Rumei wanted to say something.
