The protagonist of "A Smile and a Light Prince" is Qi Yuanzhi, who is described in the book from his official position to his resignation for nearly 20 years, in such a long time, even if Zhang Yunhua is the villain of the big demon king, all his energy has not always revolved around her, among which the Qi family belongs to a "side task".

As the protagonist, although Qi Yuanzhi has the aura of the protagonist, he will inevitably meet pig teammates, not to mention those people in the officialdom, the biggest pig teammate of the Qi family is his sister-in-law, Qi Concubine.

Unlike Concubine Shi who was sent into the palace by her family on her own initiative, it was a complete accident that the concubine would enter the palace.

She originally had a marriage contract with the son of another high-ranking official, and she waited for the marriage to marry her, who knew that the unlucky child liked to gallop on the outskirts of the city, but one day he accidentally fell off the horse and died, so the marriage contract was over.

After the death of the fiancé, the marriage of the concubine could only be temporarily put on hold, but before the Qi family could see each other again, an order was issued in the palace to open a draft girl, and the people banned marriage, and all the unmarried girls of the right age who did not have a marriage contract were sent to the palace to participate in the selection, and the concubine entered the palace in such a daze.

Speaking of which, the reason why the concubine was chosen by He Zhe was also the reason for Qi Yuanzhi.

Qi Concubine is Qi Yuanzhi's grandfather and grandmother, only one year older than him, Qi Yuanzhi was already famous in the court at the beginning of the selection, He Zhe heard that his sister-in-law was also among the show girls, so he paid special attention to it, and found that this girl was not bad, so he stayed.

It stands to reason that there is a nephew who is very favored by the emperor walking in the court, praying for a concubine in the harem should be able to mix the wind and water, but her double business is not high, and when He Zhe's freshness to her has passed, she has become a passer-by in the harem.

If Concubine Qi has enough self-knowledge, knows that her double business is not enough, and there is no way to get ahead in the harem, it is nothing to live like this with peace of mind, but where is she willing?

How many women in the harem don't dream of that highest position?

She herself knows that she has no use value, and she is not favored by He Zhe, the only thing she can do is her background, but can there be fewer concubines in the harem? Only Qi Yuanzhi is still a trump card, so since Qi Yuanzhi emerged in the court, she kept asking people to come out of the palace and ask him for help.

At first, Qi Yuanzhi was still very conscientious to help her, but when he found out that she was a standard pig teammate, he was not happy to take care of her, plus the concubine had no energy in the harem, and there were fewer and fewer palace people who were willing to look at her face, and most of the words she handed out from the palace were lost halfway, so she basically cut off contact with Qi Yuanzhi.

After that, when he was still young, he could still walk freely in the harem He Yi met her unexpectedly, and he didn't know which tendon he didn't match, and at the age of fourteen, he fell in love with the twenty-two-year-old concubine, and the two of them have been going back and forth for a long time The underground wild mandarin duck has not been discovered.

At first, the relationship between the two was very simple, just two men and women who liked each other, but as He Yi gradually matured and thought more and more, he put the usable value of the concubine in his heart.

In the original novel, the eve of the Heavenly Sacrifice was the time when the two planned a palace change soon after, and no one broke it, and when the Heavenly Sacrifice was over, at the end of the twentieth year of Chang'an, He Yi, who had been out of the palace, took the opportunity to enter the palace to hijack He Zhe, and sent people to unite the army in the suburbs of Beijing to launch a Qingjun side operation in the suburbs of Shengjing.

However, Qi Concubine is not only Qi Yuanzhi's pig teammate, but also He Yi's pig teammate, not only did she not follow the pre-agreed "win over Qi Yuanzhi, and make sure that he will never participate in it even if he doesn't help", but because the palace maid sent out to spread the word was an informant of other palace concubines and leaked the secret, He Zhe and Qingtianfu had already prepared.

Directly crashed into the big net jointly set up by He Zhe and Qi Yuanzhi, He Yi, who refused to surrender, was pressed to the ground with a heavy shield by the black armor guards who rushed up to form a meatloaf, and died very aggrieved, and the concubine was sent to the sky by He Zhe with a bowl of poison/medicine two days before the palace change, and she had no chance to participate in it at all.

It was also this incident that made Qi Yuanzhi encounter the emperor's suspicion first, but he was commended for his willingness to kill his relatives in righteousness, although Qi Yuanzhi looked grateful on the surface, but the seeds of dissatisfaction had already been planted in his heart, which was also the original motive for him to resign and wander away very simply shortly after Zhang Yunhua's death.

Because it is one of the turning points in the protagonist's state of mind, Yang Qing made a detailed analysis of this incident when she read the original text, and marked the secret meeting on the eve of the heavenly festival as the key point, but she never thought that the hole card of Shi Concubine would be so useful, not only did she achieve her goal without revealing the identity of the hole card, but also smoothly lost all the plots that might go wrong in the future!

When Yang Qinglan received the news from Shengjing, five days had passed since the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there were still about two months before she arrived in Jinyang—this was the result of speeding up, otherwise it would have taken half a year.

After Yang Qinglan asked Cherry to give some rewards to the young man who was responsible for delivering the news, she leaned softly in the carriage, forcibly suppressed the dizziness caused by the long-term carriage ride, and beckoned to Liu En next to him, signaling him to come over and help press his temples to relieve the dizziness.

"He Zhe fell suddenly, and he didn't even participate in the Heavenly Sacrifice, those people I stayed in Shengjing will definitely not let go of this opportunity, and now Shengjing has probably been drowned out by rumors, right?"

Liu En asked softly while massaging the acupuncture points on her head with both hands: "Without the county lord in Shengjing, how long can the people left by the county lord last?" ”

"I'm not here, and neither is Qi Yuanzhi, there is such a big mess, even if He Zhe can stand up and reorganize the government for a while and a half, there is no way to completely control the situation. If Qi Yuanzhi was sober enough, he would probably set off to rush back to Shengjing when he received the news, but at this time, He Zhe probably couldn't trust him wholeheartedly as usual. ”

“…… Because of the concubine? ”

"Because of He Yi."

"Huh?"

"You probably don't know that He Yi tried to win over Qi Yuanzhi as early as three years ago, and kept sending things to Qi Yuanzhi's mansion through various channels, although most of them were returned, only a very small part was left, and the remaining part was also agreed by He Zhe, but anyway, in the eyes of some people, he and He Yi have a relationship."

"But this alone ......"

"It was really not enough before, and He Zhe didn't take this little thing to heart, but now it's different, with a concubine, He Zhe will definitely doubt whether Qi Yuanzhi and He Yi will have other connections in private, plus Qi Yuanzhi has been in Jinyang during this time, not in Shengjing, there is no way to explain to He Zhe in person in time, and when he rushes back, it is not known what the situation in Shengjing is."

"The eldest prince is just having a private meeting with his concubine in the imperial garden, will the saint be angry with the secretary of the palace because of this?"

"A private meeting? Hehe...... Will you, who used to work for the former prince, have such a simple time? ”

Liu En was stunned for a moment, and blinked uncomfortably: "The eldest prince is planning to ...... But today's saint is far from the Tai/Zu at that time, and the eldest prince wants to start an incident, but he has no chance of winning! ”

"It's not up to us to decide whether we win or not, who will show the hole cards to others?"

“……”

"How long does it take to get the news from Shengjing to Jinyang?"

"If you use flying pigeons and express posts for the whole process, it will take about two and a half days."

"In other words, Qi Yuanzhi has been on the road for one or two days...... "Finding that the strength in his body was losing little by little, and he would be unconscious again soon, Yang Qinglan accelerated the operation speed of his brain, "From Jinyang to Shengjing, even if he is fast along the way, it will not be less than seven days, and he has not been to Liuzhou yet...... Liuzhou I remember ......"

Hearing that the voice of "Zhang Yunhua" was getting softer and softer, Liu En stopped what he was doing, looked down to see if she had fainted, and then saw a face full of calculations with squinting eyes and hooking the corners of his mouth.

“…… What did the county lord think? ”

"I thought of a fun thing, which can probably keep the boy busy for a while, and re-acquaint himself with the saint who knows him, hahaha...... Cough! Ahem, ahem—"

“…… County Lord, you really shouldn't be so distracted, the General's Mansion still relies on you to support it! ”

"Don't worry, I've figured it out." Yang Qinglan raised her eyelids and glanced at Liu En, "In the past, I only thought about revenge, but I forgot that I am not alone, those three children and a group of grandchildren are all the kind of crazy people of Liu Terrier, but they are also mine, even if I don't take my life to heart, I shouldn't watch so many people fill in together." ”

"If you can think so, rest well, and wait until the children grow up......"

"That's not what I meant."

“…… What the? ”

"I mean, even that idiot knows that it's not cost-effective to use the General's Mansion to bury the He family, how could I be so stupid? I not only want to make He Zhe unhappy, but also to make myself clean, let the general's mansion be clean, only when Lin'er ascends the throne in the future, my revenge will be avenged. ”

“……”

"I don't know how long this old bone will last, and I have to calculate well for that day......"

"Zhang Yunhua"'s voice gradually became smaller again, and this time, she really couldn't hold back and fainted.

Looking at her sleeping face blankly, Liu En's raised hands froze in mid-air for a long time and forgot to put them down.

After so many days, he has become accustomed to facing the "Mrs. Rongwei" who is "timid and fearful, kind-hearted" and the "Yunhua County Lord" who is "calculating and exhausted" every day.

As a doctor, the only help he can provide to the county lord is his medical skills, thinking of what the county lord said just now, he sighed, withdrew his hand, and clenched it into a fist.

"This ending is probably really the happiest ending for the county lord, right? All I can do is do my best to keep the county lord alive to see that day......"
