Chapter 186: Father-in-law and Father-in-law

Ning Huaixiu has been disheartened since she was injured that night, although she is very grateful that the queen mother has never fallen into the well, and is willing to pull her, but it is difficult to hide her frustration, after all, the man who hates her like an insect and ant is a man she has loved for many years, and loves her heart, liver, and bone marrow.

Since she was injured, she has been lying in the house every day to recuperate, and in just a few days, she has seen the cold and warmth of the world.

The palace ladies who lived in the same room knew her original identity, and they all despised her for her self-condescension, although they never trampled on her, but everyone regarded her as air, and no one was willing to take care of her. These days, there is not even a person to talk to her, and when everyone sees her, they will show a look of ridicule and disdain, which makes this eldest lady who has been held in her hands since she was a child ashamed and sad. If it weren't for the fear that her father and mother would be sad for her, she would have been killed headlong, and she wouldn't want to be despised and disgusted like this!

When Qiu came to call her, she was lying on the big kang and looking at the beams of the house in a daze.

Her current identity is no longer the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, just an ordinary palace maid, she can only be like an ordinary palace maid, more than a dozen people sleep on a large kang with a bunk, bathing, changing clothes, and even the size of the solution can not find a relatively hidden space, can only be carried out under everyone's noses, which makes her feel very ashamed, but there is nothing she can do, and in addition to the shame, she regrets her rash entry into the palace.

"Ning Huaixiu, the queen summoned you to meet her!"

Ning Huaixiu listened, quickly got up from the big kang, quickly changed clothes, combed her hair, the queen mother is her only hope, she wants to get out of here alive, only the queen mother can help her, so, these days, she has been looking forward to the queen mother summoning her.

She didn't dare to let Zhao Qiu wait for a long time, let alone let the queen wait for her, and after quickly finishing her makeup, she followed behind Zhao Qiu, and entered the imperial study with low eyebrows.

As soon as she entered, she saw the man who had made her think about it and haunt her dreams, sitting upright behind the dragon case, with his eyes down and reading the folds.

The sunlight shone through the glass windows of the main hall on his upside-down face, and a faint glow was plated on that face, making him look so handsome, and at the same time with the domineering spirit of a superior who looked down on the world!

Ning Huaixiu's heart was distressed, and after glancing at him, she quickly lowered her head and followed Yuqiu into the room where the queen mother of the eastern room was.

Entering the house, I saw that Queen Mu was sitting on the kang by the window, looking down at the account book, she was wearing a homely dress today, a green cotton short jacket, and a floor-length skirt of the same color and fabric underneath, there was no comb on her head, let alone hairpins, only a long black hair was loosely braided into a braid, hanging down at will.

This plain dress did not make her look plain and elegant, but more and more red lips like agate, white as jade, and extremely glamorous, beautiful and unparalleled, Rao is a person who is used to seeing beauties, and when she saw such a queen at first glance, she also saw her eyes straight.

No wonder, he will fall in love with her alone, and if he is someone else, he is afraid that it will be the same for the emperor, and the queen is indeed a peerless beauty whose beauty is unmatched!

Seeing that she only looked at Cai Wei in a daze, but didn't salute, Zhao Qiu secretly pushed her. Ning Huaixiu woke up like a dream, hurriedly knelt down, and kowtowed to Cai Wei.

"Slave and maid see the queen mother!"

She did not call herself a courtier, but called herself a slave, and when she entered the palace, she was a slave and was no longer qualified to call herself a courtier.

"Get up!"

Cai Wei raised her head and said lukewarmly.

"Thank you, Queen Mother." Ning Huaixiu stood up, hung his head on the ground, didn't dare to raise his head, and didn't dare to say a word.

Cai Wei said: "I heard that you are the first talented woman in the Great Jin Kingdom, you have been knowledgeable since you were a child, and you must be able to settle accounts for such a trivial matter, and it will be the New Year soon, and the rewards for the princesses and princesses of the palace, as well as the rewards of the ministers of the three grades and above in the court have not been put down, so many people, the rewards are not the same, it is a headache for the palace, you come to help the palace calculate it." ”

Only then did Ning Huaixiu notice that on the kang table in front of Queen Mu, there were four or five account books, as well as paper, pencils, teacups, abacus and other things.

When she was at home, her mother presided over the middle feed of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she was familiar with this kind of thing, so she said: "Yes, the slave obeys the order!" ”

Cai Wei pointed to the edge of the kang: "Do it, you have two and three of these five account books, strive to calculate them all today, and Ming'er will send the reward down!" ”

Ning Huaixiu thanked him, sat sideways on the edge of the kang, picked out two account books, took the abacus, paper and pencil and other things, and began to settle the accounts.

The thick two books of accounts will be completed in one afternoon, although the workload is very large, and it is difficult to complete, but she calculates very seriously, and strives to make a good impression on the queen. Now, she no longer expects the emperor's mercy, she just hopes to serve the queen well, maybe the queen will be gracious and let her go home!

The two of them calculated their own calculations, and they both calculated very carefully, there was no movement in the room at all, only the rustle of turning the account book, and the snapping sound of Ning Huaixiu playing with the abacus beads today, Queen Mu didn't need an abacus when calculating the accounts, only drew some strange symbols on the paper, and I don't know how to settle the accounts with those symbols?

Ning Huaixiu saw it inadvertently, although it was strange, but he didn't dare to distract himself, he just glanced at it, and after being surprised for a moment, he continued to bow his head and calculate.

When I finished counting the book, it was already dark outside, and Xiaozhi suddenly came in to report: "Niangniang, dinner is ready, the emperor asked you if this is the meal?" ”

Cai Wei didn't raise her head and said, "I'll finish it right away, let him wait a little longer!" ”

Let the emperor wait for her to eat, others may be surprised when they hear it, but it is no surprise for Ning Huaixiu, she has served them for more than a month, and she already knows how much the emperor loves her and spoils her, even if she doesn't allow the emperor to eat dinner, she won't feel anything strange.

However, it was she who was strange

However, what she was strange about was the sentence she said, she said, she was done right away, what did that mean?

She counted three accounts, and she, who had been calculating all afternoon, had just finished calculating one account, how could she calculate it so quickly?

Ning Huaixiu looked over in astonishment, and saw that on the queen's side, the two calculated account books had been neatly stacked there, and a piece of paper was pressed under each account book, on which were written some calculated account numbers.

And the book in her hand has already reached the last two pages, and it is nearing the end, and it is about to be finished.

Ning Huaixiu couldn't believe her eyes, she was smart and calculated quickly, how could she be inferior to her, and it was so bad?

In the wandering spirits, Queen Mo had already turned to the last page, only to see her looking at the number jΓΉ on the ledger, while quickly writing some strange symbols on the paper, and then drawing a horizontal line under these symbols, and began to draw dots, after a while, she smiled brightly, closed the ledger, and said, "It's over!" ”

When she looked up, she saw the dumbfounded Ning Huaixiu looking at her in astonishment, and asked, "How many do you have?" ”

Ning Huaixiu was stunned, blushing and said, "There is another copy." ”

Cai Wei nodded and said, "That's good, let's go back to eat first, and come back tomorrow!" ”

Ning Huaixiu hurriedly stood up and said goodbye to her: "Yes, the slave and maid retire!" After taking two steps, he couldn't resist the doubts in his heart, so he stopped and said: "The slave dares to ask the mother what method she used to calculate the account, how can it be so fast?" ”

Cai Wei was drinking tea with a teacup, and when she heard the words, she said unhurriedly: "Arabic numeral arithmetic!" ”

"Arabic numeral arithmetic?"

Ning Huaixiu was stunned, she was also a well-read and well-informed person, how could she never have heard of Arabic arithmetic in this world?

Cai Wei put down the teacup and said slowly: "This arithmetic method is original to my father, it is faster and much simpler than our ordinary accounting method, and it will soon be widely promoted in our Great Jin Kingdom, and you will know it then!" ”

Ning Huaixiu's expression darkened when she heard this, it turned out that she was not only inferior in appearance, but also inferior in ability......

At dinner, Nangong Yi told Cai Wei the purpose of Li Guogong coming to see him and his reply, Cai Wei was very satisfied with Nangong Yi's democratic practice, she called Zhao Qiu, and asked her to tell Nangong Yi's words to Queen SΓΉ Namuhan and Wanyan Jingchen, so that Wanyan Jingchen and Mo Zili can compete fairly, whether they can hold the beauty is up to him!

Zhao Qiu just walked out of the imperial study and met Princess Chaogui who came to ask for sin.

From the moment the queen sent someone to send her back to her palace, she didn't even ask her again, she knew that her tricks had been peeped through by the queen, she was just a weak woman attached to the queen, the rise and fall of honor and disgrace all lie in the queen's thoughts, whether her ambition to Lingyun can be achieved is a sentence from the queen's mother.

Therefore, she never dared to offend the queen, and she couldn't care less about her opinion of herself, and after waking up and raising for a while, she struggled to come to ask for guilt despite her sick and weak body.

Cai Wei and Nangong Yi were eating, and when they heard that Chao Gui asked to see her, they said coldly: "Tell her to go back, this palace has no time to see her!" ”

Chunliu went out to pass the word, Chao Gui heard that the queen mother did not see her, and she knew that it was not good, if she really left, I was afraid that she would never see the queen again in the future, therefore, but there was a lot of discomfort in the body, and she bent her knees and knelt outside the imperial study.

Seeing her like this, Chunliu quietly pursed her lips and went back to tell Cai Wei. Cai Wei will not be bought by her bitter tricks, she sneered: "She likes to kneel, just let her kneel, don't pay attention to her." ”

In the courtyard, Chao Gui shivered in the cold wind, but until she knelt and fainted, she didn't see the queen summoning her......

After Chao Gui was carried away, Cai Wei didn't pay attention to it, and played chess with Nangong Yi for a while, and the two packed up and went to bed early, for Nangong Yi, the best moment of the day began......

For Mo Zili, it was the most cruel day.

When he learned that Prince Wanyan actually wanted to marry her regardless of Xiangyun's identity and divorce, and he had to accept her heart within three days to have a chance to reunite with her, he felt like someone had poured a bucket of ice water on his head, and his heart was cold!

Now, he's finished, really finished!

She hated him so much that she would not forgive him, so how could he make her change her mind in three days? And that Situ Changge, not only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Qingluo Kingdom, but also saved her twice, she is her life-saving benefactor, she is a person who loves and hates clearly, she must be very grateful to him in her heart, as for whether she loves him or not, she is not sure if she loves him, but compared to him, the chance of Yan Jingchen's chances of winning is better than his, and even, he has no chance of winning at all!

The elders also felt that he had little chance of winning, and after sighing, they began to comfort him, so as not to be too sad after his defeat.

Bai also said that if he really can't forget Wu Xiangyun, he can find him a young lady who is similar to Wu Xiangyun's personality and appearance, and those who want to cling to the Liguo Mansion are that with the power of the Liguo Mansion, they will definitely be able to find such a woman......

Of course, Mo Zili would not accept his mother's mentions, seeing that the elders were so worried about him, which made him feel very ashamed and uneasy, he comforted several elders in turn and said a few words, and then left Enxi Hall on the grounds that he wanted to be quiet, and left the mansion in despair, and walked towards the Jian'an Hou Mansion.

When the old lady heard that he had gone to the Jian'an Hou Mansion, she hurriedly sent a few family members to follow from afar to avoid accidents.

Actually, he didn't know what he was going to do in Jian'an Hou's Mansion, but he couldn't help but go there, even if he knew that he wouldn't be able to see her if he went, and there would be no result, but he still went.

Riding on horseback, looking at the closed gate of the Jian'an Hou Mansion, Mo Zili's heart was sad...

Probably, this time, he is really going to lose her...

At this time, he wanted to go in and see her, see her, even if he was not treated by her, even if he was scolded

, even if the scolded dog is bloody, it is as happy as he is.

Now, it is a luxury to hear her scold him and reprimand him, she is going to become the crown princess of Qingluo Kingdom, and she is going to become the wife of other men. Her cute bun face and her cute smile are going to be other men's.

And that, once it was all their own!

"Mo Zili, I hate you, I will never forgive you in this life......"

"Mo Zili, I don't want to see you again, let's go......"

Her helpless and aggrieved cries still linger on his side, and that tear-stained little face always can't help but appear in front of his eyes, making him feel distressed when he thinks about it to this day. He regretted it, he regretted that he couldn't kill himself, he knew that he loved her so deeply, so hard to extricate himself, no matter what happened, he would not hurt her a single bit.

However, there is no regret medicine in the world, and he hurt her, although he loves her so much that he longs to die to apologize; And she hates him to the bone and regards him as an undying enemy!

If Wanyan Jingchen is an ordinary identity, she may be happy if she marries him, but he is the prince, the future monarch of Qingluo Kingdom, with her temperament, she is not suitable to be a queen at all, and she is not suitable to stay in the palace at all, he can't give him happiness, only he can give her happiness!

However, she won't give him a chance......

The wind blew, and the snowflakes fell down on him, and after a long time, he became a snowman covered in silver.

The guards who followed him finally couldn't help it, and stepped forward and said, "Ligongzi, your body is just right, the imperial doctor said that you can't stay outside for a long time, so let's go back." ”

Mo Zili looked at the gate for a while, lowered his eyes, and finally left with his horse.

Lonely to the turn of the street, far away, a horse galloped, in the dark, can not see the face of the person on horseback, but can faintly see his tall and vigorous figure, and when he came to the front, distinguish his appearance, Mo Zili's heart stagnated, as if someone had given a hard blow to the heart, from the heart to the pain......

Seeing him at this time and place, you don't need to ask where he is going, Mo Zili's face darkened, and his hand holding the reins tightened, trying his best to resist the urge to kill.

Wanyan Jingchen also saw Mo Zili, he reined in the horse, arched his hand very gracefully, and said, "Master Mo, fortunately!" ”

Mo Zili grimaced and reluctantly replied.

When Yan Jingchen was about to pass by him, he suddenly spoke: "Her temperament is too simple, not suitable for life in the palace at all, if you love her, you shouldn't marry her." ”

Wanyan Jingchen said with a smile: "Her temperament is indeed simple, so she needs a man who loves her and believes in her to save her, otherwise, not to mention the palace, even the ordinary Houmen Mansion will have no place for her." ”

**The naked ridicule made Mo Zili's face even more ugly, he said: "There are some things that you can only know if you experience it, and only when you know that you are wrong, you will cherish her more." ”

Wanyan Jingchen chuckled lightly and said: "There are some things that this king knows right and wrong without experience, such as: you shouldn't raise a foreign house, you shouldn't distrust your wife, without these experiences, this king will still cherish her, and will never let her be sad and frustrated!" ”

Mo Zili was choked, and it took a while before he spoke: "Don't forget, she is Heli's body, everyone in the world knows that she has been my Mo Zili's wife, do you think the ministers and people of Qingluo Kingdom will accept a Heli woman as their crown princess and future queen?" If you insist on marrying her, and when you arrive in the country of Cheongla, the people and ministers will not accept her, where should you leave her? ”

These concerns are very reasonable, Mo Zili couldn't help but think of it, Wanyan Jingchen also thought of it, he suddenly smiled, and said: "It is said that husband and wife are one, since she has become the wife of this king, she is naturally one with this king, if the ministers and people of Qingluo Kingdom do not accept her, there is no doubt that they will not accept this king, and there is nothing remarkable, it is a big deal that this king will take her to open a trip." ”

Mo Zili sneered: "I didn't expect that Prince Wanyan was still an amorous person, and he chose a beauty without hesitation among the beauties in the country, I hope that when the time comes, you can talk and count, don't let people laugh at you for being a person who is untrustworthy." ”

Wanyan Jingchen hooked the corners of his lips and said with a sarcastic smile: "It is said that people who have Buddha in their hearts look at the Buddha in everything, narrow-minded villains always like to live with themselves, the will of this king is not something that people like you can imagine, so don't worry about things that have nothing to do with you, no matter what happens to this king and her in the future, it has nothing to do with you, don't forget, you have nothing to do with it anymore, you are just a person who has been out." ”

These words angered Mo Zili, and his face suddenly showed a trace of anger, and he bit his heart: "Wanyan Jingchen, the saint said that we will compete fairly, but before the last moment, I don't know who will kill the deer, you look like a villain now, are you too happy too early?" ”

Wanyan Jingchen raised his eyebrows, looked at him like a joke, and asked, "Do you think she will choose you?" ”

Mo Zili said a little angrily: "Whether she chooses me or not, I am her first man, even if she chooses you, you will pick up the rest of me!" ”

Wanyan Jingchen's face turned cold, and a murderous aura suddenly gathered on his originally gentle and jade-like face, and he suddenly flew up from his horse, soared into the air, and struck at Mo Zili with a wave of his palm.

Mo Zili is also a person who practices martial arts, but because he is the only seedling of Mo Qingshan, Li Guogong is afraid that he will have three strengths and two weaknesses when he goes to the battlefield in the future, so he pays more attention to cultivating his literary talents, hoping that he can take the road of imperial examinations and become a civil official.

Because of this, his martial arts are not very sophisticated, and he is a big difference from Wanyan Jingchen, who is the deputy leader of the Thorn Moon Gang!

Mo Zili felt the fierceness of the palm wind, and was about to fight him to the death, but the guards who followed him flew up and quickly slammed their palms towards Wanyan Jingchen.

These guards were all sent by the old lady, and they were the Duke of Liguo

, is the first-class guard of the Liguo Mansion, and the dead soldiers trained by the Liguo Gong for the Empress Dowager Mo and Nangong Yi before, all of them are determined in martial arts, and they are by no means idle.

Wanyan Jingchen saw that these people's moves were powerful, so he had to let go of the idea of cleaning up Mo Zili for the time being, and fought with them.

Queen Namuhan didn't worry about Yan Jingchen coming out alone, and had already sent a few of the most powerful hidden guards to follow him from afar, although Wan Yan Jingchen had already found out, in order to reassure his mother, Wan Yan Jingchen had already found out that he was being followed by them, but he still endured it and did not let go of them.

When the hidden guards saw that their master was attacked, they instantly appeared, and quickly joined the battle, fighting with the hidden guards of the Liguo Mansion .......

Jian'an Hou went out to the banquet tonight, and when he came back, he happened to see this scene, he didn't know Yan Jingchen, but he recognized Mo Zili, and saw that the two sides were fighting near the door of his house, so he hurriedly hit the horse and persuaded him loudly from afar, lest he would cause trouble.

"Two, two, the so-called grievances should be resolved or not, I don't know what misunderstanding the two have, it's better to give the old man a thin noodle, go to the cold house to drink a cup of tea, drive away the cold, this matter ends here, okay?"

Jian'an Hou tried his best to make peace, although he was very angry with Mo Zili before, and he hated to kill him to be discouraged, but since the last time Mo Zili came to the mansion to say, his impression of him has changed a lot, and he is not so hateful to him, and he is the grandson of the Liguo Mansion and the emperor's cousin, in case he really dies outside the gate of his house, the Jian'an Hou Mansion will really not be far from the door of destruction.

Mo Zili regarded him as his father-in-law, and Wanyan Jingchen also regarded him as his future father-in-law, so the two naturally had to give him a little thin noodles, and after he spoke, he stopped drinking his own people and stopped.
