Chapter 250
But seeing her eyes narrowed, she said: "You haven't entered school now, and there is no one to guide you, so it is inevitable that you will have a child's heart, and it is common sense that you like to have fun, how can you compare with grandma?" β
Mama Qin's eyes flashed, and then she said in a deep voice, "The Sixth Highness is gifted and intelligent, and it is not a good thing to be playful for a while. But he didn't mention the matter of entering the palace.
Once and twice in a row, because of Mama Qin's frustration, Concubine Gao's face at this time couldn't help but be a little difficult to look at. But what kind of character is she, Rao is unhappy in her heart, and she can smile casually: "Then I will accept Mama's auspicious words." β
As he spoke, he moved his gaze to the side, and changed the topic with a smile: "Your Majesty, since Mama is unwilling to enter the palace, do you have any other candidates in mind for teaching the princess?" β
Mama Qin is stubborn, and Xie Ning has long understood. But today, seeing her in front of the imperial concubine without the slightest fear, I couldn't help but have a little more doubts in my heart. The monarch is a minister, although Mama Qin has served by the side of the former queen, but with this experience alone, where can many princes be courteous to her, and where can she dare to remain silent to the noble concubine in front of the emperor?
Therefore, now that the noble concubine spoke again, Xie Ning couldn't help but raise his heart, for fear that Mama Qin's expression was just out of impulse, and she didn't consider the consequences.
"For a while, I can't think of any good candidates," the emperor spoke slowly, raised his eyes to look at Mama Qin, the smile in his eyes was clear, but he was obviously speaking to the noble concubine, "I know that Mama works hard, but after all, the outside of the palace is not as good as the palace, you have been outside for so long, you might as well go back to the palace to live for a while, so as not to worry about everyone." What does Mama think? β
The emperor's words were not unexpected by Xie Ning. After all, Mama Qin's silence was only aimed at the noble concubine, but it did hurt the royal face. As soon as Chrysostom Yu's words came out, he knew that Mama Qin's return to the palace was a foregone conclusion, Xie Ning was sad, but he was only glad that the emperor's tone was very respectful when he spoke to Mama Qin, and he was not angry.
"The emperor doesn't dislike the old slave, it's good that he is old and useless." Mama Qin still looked calm.
The noble concubine who achieved the goal did not say much, and the room was silent. On the contrary, Qin Feng immediately opened his mouth. After curing a cough for many years, his clear voice is more pleasing to the ear, "Mama has returned to the palace." The things that are placed outside the Hou Mansion will be handed over to Xie Ning for safekeeping. In this way, when she rests in the future, Mama can also go to the Hou Mansion to live temporarily. β
Mama Qin raised her eyes when she heard this. The tone didn't show too much closeness, but he bowed his head slightly and said, "What His Royal Highness said is reasonable. The old body also has this intention. β
"The third brother and the Marquis of Jingyang have a lot of intersections," Qin Lin hooked the corners of his mouth, and then said in a long voice: "Could it be because of Miss Xie?" β
Above the court, the Marquis of Jingyang has always been neutral. It's a relative. I don't see how close Jingyang Hou Gao Daonian is to his concubine sister and the six princes. Qin Lin's words seemed to be joking, but in fact, he was hiding a knife in his smile and had bad intentions.
Qin Feng heard this. He only smiled slightly, and was about to open his mouth to prevaricate. was dispelled by Xie Ning's glance. But seeing that she retracted her gaze, she said to Qin Lin with a straight face: "The princess's words are wrong, the little girl and the third highness have always been gentlemen's friends, although you are just joking casually, and you have no intentions, but if you let others listen, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not insult Your Highness's reputation." β
Unexpectedly, Xie Ning would say a trivial matter so strictly, Qin Lin glanced sideways in the direction of his father, and said with a slight emptiness: "It's me who lost his words for a while." However, Miss Xie was born in Jiangmen, so she shouldn't mind this matter too much. β
"Father," Qin Ze's slightly soft voice sounded immediately, "You haven't said anything about rewarding Sister Xie yet." When that Sister Xu came, she just said a few words to you, and you gave her a temporary mansion. Sister Xie has helped the third brother a lot, and she has saved the two of us outside the palace before, you can't be stingy. β
"Hahaha, when have I been stingy?" When the emperor heard this, he couldn't help laughing, and looked at Xie Ning, "Since the six highnesses have all rewarded you, I will reward you with a favor, whatever you want, let your own mind be." β
That's a great grace. Xie Ning immediately got up from his seat, clasped his fists and said, "Please also ask the emperor to let the little girl think for a moment." β
"Okay." Having made this promise, the emperor replied cheerfully.
However, although it is a matter of will, Xie Ning also understands the measure, and naturally will not make any non-trivial requests to make people embarrassed. But what exactly this requires, she has to think about it.
Now she is alone in Beijing, although she has the Jingyang Marquis Mansion to live temporarily, but after all, she can't take it as her own dependence, not to mention that the Xiang family and the noble concubine don't like her, and Qin Xi, the king of Xuan, has a grudge against her.
Therefore, although there is an opportunity to give and ask for it now, she should not be short-sighted and ask for anything of gold and silver, but should find a way to obtain a more favorable thing for herself.
"You girl, haven't you made up your mind after thinking about it for so long?" The noble concubine suddenly spoke, but it was completely a caring tone of the elders, "The emperor has already spoken first, why should you worry too much." It's really not good, it's good to ask the emperor for a female official to do it. β
I don't know if the other party is mentioning it or has a deep meaning. Xie Ning came back from his thoughts, but he only smiled and said: "Xie Ning can get the emperor's promise, it is already a blessing for three lives. I was excited, and I inevitably had to think about it carefully, and I asked my mother not to be surprised. β
Thousands of wears, but sycophants don't wear. As soon as her words fell, the emperor also showed a slight smile on his face, raised his hand and said, "This is indeed an important matter, let her think about it." β
When Xie Ning got the message, he thought about it more reassuringly. From her own point of view, gold and silver and other things are definitely not advisable, but the female official mentioned by the noble concubine is not to her liking.
It's not that she dismissed the idea of becoming a female official, it's just that if this official position was sought by her in front of the palace, it would be so easy to come by, it was really boring.
Thinking that the female official test is held once every three years, I don't know how many women are eager for it and leave home to come to Beijing. Xie Ning has never known that they have passed the examination, but he has never heard of any female official's position rewarded by the emperor. If she wants to use the emperor's grace to change her official position, she would rather take the exam in person, even if she is disappointed, it is better than her taking this opportunity to get an official position for nothing.
With no one to rely on, she has more faith than many people in Beijing to get ahead. However, the number of female officers is limited. It is unfair to seek an official in front of the emperor.
But what could she ask for? Although the emperor's promise is a grace, it is really difficult to deal with easily, and Xie Ning must not only seize this great opportunity, but also pay attention to proportion, so as not to attract the emperor's disgust.
Instead of relying on the emperor's grace. It's better to support yourself. Shain's mind flashed with inspiration. Suddenly thought of a brilliant idea, and immediately made a decision, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty." The little girl had already thought about what she was asking for. β
"But it doesn't hurt to say it."
Xie Ning lowered her eyes slightly, but she didn't miss the gaze cast by Qin Feng on the side, she didn't respond, but said directly: "The little girl is from Shu." My father even served in the army, so the little daughter knew that the war was dangerous. Now the bandits in Shu have been pacified. The resettlement of wounded soldiers has become a top priority. The little girl intends to open a martial arts hall in Beijing, but there are also retired people every year in the border guards, and it is really difficult to achieve it with the strength of the little girl alone. Fortunately, His Majesty XiΓ Longen. The little girl is brave, and she also asks Her Majesty to help. β
Xie Ning's words fell, and the expressions of the people in the hall changed. And don't look at others. Just talking about the emperor's thoughtful posture made Xie Ning sweat.
She entered the palace this time. Although she was at Qin Feng's request, she was ready to share the work of suppressing bandits for him, but even if Qin Feng said the truth, in the final analysis, she could not completely take this credit for herself with complete peace of mind.
Although training soldiers is tiring, leading troops to quell chaos is even more difficult, and strategies are useful, but she only mentioned them casually at the beginning, but the plan is far more than offering to the gods.
Money and power, she doesn't love it, but one day, she will earn it with her own efforts. The matter of the martial arts hall was decided by Uncle Pei and her today, and since the Holy Lord opened Chrysostom, she would take advantage of this shareholder wind to plan well.
"In this trip to suppress bandits, my Daqin suffered heavy losses, and there were many wounded soldiers. You're just a boudoir woman, and you have the heart to open a martial arts gym, how do you place them? The emperor groaned and leaned forward slightly, obviously exploring.
Seeing that he was still interested in asking, Xie Ning was relieved in his heart, but said silently on his face: "Back to Your Majesty, although the ranking soldiers are injured, compared to ordinary people, the foundation of the body is also a little stronger. The little girl opened a martial arts hall and accepted disciples from a wide range of people. Those who are slightly injured can be the head of the sect, instruct the disciples in martial arts, and can also send letters with darts and earn money. As for those who are seriously injured, they can also do what they can in the hall, and the expenses in the past will be used from the income of the martial arts hall...... However, the little girl has never opened a martial arts hall before, and what she said is inevitably suspected of being on paper. The exact placement remains to be discussed in the future. β
Xie Ning's voice had fallen, but Qin Feng still hadn't taken his eyes off Xie Ning. The seats of the two were close to each other, and when he looked up at this time, he could even see the shy smile on the corner of Xie Ning's mouth that had not yet had time to retract, and he suddenly couldn't help but move in his heart, got up and interjected: "If my father has any concerns, my son is willing to complete this matter with Xie Ning." I also ask my father for permission. β
Seeing this, Qin Lin covered her mouth and smiled: "Since Miss Xie has this ambition, it's no wonder that the third brother also has to come forward to help." β
What she said was a bit ambiguous, but since Xie Ning entered the hall, Qin Feng had spoken out many times, and everyone present could see it clearly, so it was inevitable that some good deeds would look in their direction.
But seeing the two standing side by side, the man clasped his fists in front of him, his upright posture was extremely eye-catching, and under the brocade robe and jade crown, Rao was injured on his arm, but it still did not damage his half of his nobility. The woman is dressed in orange, with her head lowered and her eyebrows and eyes can't be seen clearly, but her complexion is fair, she is obviously a deferential lady, but she has the ambition to be comparable to that of a man.
These two people are standing together, although they are not talented and beautiful, they are also a little compatible.
Everyone was still looking at it, and they were interrupted by Qin Feng's clear voice. was casually teased by Qin Lin, but there was no displeasure on his face, but he said gently: "Didn't you forget that the wounded soldiers I am discussing at this time are all brothers who are fighting bandits with me?" Yandi is a bandit, and many of them are injured to protect me. Now that Shainin has the heart to help and be reasonable, it is difficult for me to sit idly by. β
As soon as Qin Feng said this, the emperor's eyes couldn't help but show a few smiles. After Qin Lin secretly looked at his father's expression, he would not refute it anymore, so he only replied: "The little sister was speechless for a while, but she never thought of the relationship between the third brother and these wounded soldiers. β
"Speaking of origin," a low and hoarse voice sounded, but every word in the ear was extremely clear, Mama Qin changed her silence and said slowly: "The emperor may not know something, Xie Ning, this girl, also spent a lot of energy in order to train the soldiers. Not to mention going out early and returning late, you have to disguise yourself as a man to dare to appear in front of people. Not to mention that she is a good girl, and she has to be exposed to the sun all day long. Even the old body I was worried about, and it took a lot of effort to raise her complexion back a little. β
Everyone immediately looked at Xie Ning, although there was a hall full of candles, but compared with the noble concubine Qin Lin and other female relatives present, it was not difficult to distinguish that her complexion was slightly dark, and they had already believed what Mama Qin had just said.
Qin Feng was even more ashamed and said: "At that time, this king was only thinking about training soldiers, and he didn't want to neglect Miss Xie. β
Regardless of what he thought about his self-blame falling into the ears of others, Xie Ning, as the person concerned, took a lot of effort to resist the urge to roll his eyes at him and Mama Qin.
Mama Qin just talks nonsense, but Brother Ziyue has always acted rigorously, and now he has learned to talk nonsense in front of people without changing his color. Her slightly dark complexion was caused by years of negligence, how did she become a sunburn from the training soldiers? Qin Feng had known her before, how could he not know the change in her skin color, these two people colluded, obviously calculated that no one in the palace knew the details of Xie Ning at this time, so they would deceive.
Although he saw their intentions, Xie Ning was not stupid enough to expose it, but just silently stretched his face and secretly controlled the expression on his face, so as not to be seen by the people present.
Unexpectedly, her silence at this time fell into the eyes of the emperor, but she became indifferent who did not want to take credit. But seeing that he raised his eyes and swept away, he really glanced at Xie Ning, and his deep voice sounded, "You girl has martial arts and is quite resourceful, she can really be called a strange woman." For the sake of this suppression of bandits, I will respond to your request and inscribe a plaque for your martial arts hall. As for many of themβ"
The emperor's voice paused, his gaze naturally swept to Qin Feng, who was standing beside him, and said in a casual tone: "Let Ziyue be the assistant." (To be continued.) )
