Chapter 106: I can't help it
(Have a great weekend everyone!) οΌ
Since Emperor Chongde deliberately chose a concubine for the three princes, the courtyard in the southeast of the Chengguo Mansion has fallen silent, except for hearing a few angry roars from time to time from Qin Ji, there is not much sound.
In the past, the officials and subordinates who would always come here to report things have reduced the number of times they came here to avoid Qin Ji's anger. Even the staff members Li Chu and Feng Yu don't know very well: why the prince of the world has been angry at every turn recently, and this anger has suddenly soared to the sky, so that no one dares to approach.
Qin Ji's anger was known even to Qin Yi, the Duke of Chengguo. On this day, Qin Yi summoned Qin Ji and asked him how he was doing.
"Your mother is very worried about you, what has happened lately? This is not a good sign. Qin Yi frowned and said. In his opinion, Qin Ji, as a superior person, can't control his joy and anger, which is a bad thing, so he will deliberately mention it.
Qin Ji straightened his face and said quite tiredly: "When the child thinks of Nanfeng Hall recently, he feels worried. In the future, things such as investigation and transmission of news have been greatly affected, and the child is rebuilding a Nanfeng Hall with Yin Hong. β
After that, he lowered his head, looking depressed, but to hide the pain in his eyes. This matter is indeed what he and Yin Hong are doing, but it is not the real reason for his anger.
He has been abnormal recently, for the sake of the person on Suzaku East Road, that person, and now he is going to get married......
As soon as Qin Ji thought of this, he felt suffocated in his heart, and unwillingness, jealousy, resentment, etc. turned into anger, and he couldn't suppress it.
But these are not allowed to be known to Qin Yi. I found the rebuilding of Nanfeng Hall as an excuse. Coincidentally, the rebuilding of Nanfeng Hall was not smooth, and it was also very appropriate to use it to prevaricate Qinyi.
"Nanfeng Tang is not in a hurry, it is impossible to accumulate forces in a hurry, and the imperial court is now keeping a close eye on this matter, take your time, don't be angry about this matter." As soon as he heard the three words of Nanfeng Tang, Qin Yi's face also sank.
Nanfeng Hall overturned, which was equivalent to a broken arm of the Chengguo Mansion, which greatly damaged the vitality of the Chengguo Mansion. It took Qin Yi so long to recover.
At the same time as striking at the entrance of Jingzhaotang. The court also issued several edicts on heaven and earth, floating households, and displaced people, with the intention of placing idle people in the fields and reducing the number of young and strong displaced people.
Even, Shen Du, a member of the Chinese Academy, is still sparse. Jianyì Jingzhao Mansion to investigate the situation of beggars. If he is a young and strong man, and he is a beggar. need to be punished, etc., this sparseness makes the already small number of young and strong homeless people in Jingzhao even rarer.
For the Tangkou. Without the young and strong displaced people, there is no foundation, and reconstruction is extremely difficult. At this moment, Qin Yi believed that Qin Ji was worried about Nanfeng Tang.
"The child knows, and he will take his time in the future, please don't worry about it." Qin Ji exhaled lightly and said. Fortunately, there was also the rebuilding of Nanfeng Hall, otherwise he wouldn't know how to deal with Qin Yi.
"If Chengping is today, the difference in strength between the princes is huge, and the momentum is already clear. The role of Nanfeng Hall in investigating news is not as important as that of the first emperor. During this time, it is used as a cultivation. Your Royal Highness, what are your considerations for the selection of the concubine? Qin Yi knew that his son was friendly with the third prince, so he asked.
ββ¦β¦ I don't know. This matter should be in charge of the palace. Qin Ji's body stiffened, and he said calmly, but he felt sour in his heart.
The three princesses, I don't know which one is the lucky one?
Qin Yi thought for a while and said what he had been considering before: "This concubine candidate is extremely important, and it is related to the issue of the help of the Third Highness. This candidate, I think the granddaughter of the country's sacrificial wine Ye Duan is very good, and it is very suitable for the Third Highness. β
Qin Ji slowly raised his head, and suddenly felt that his mind was quite empty, who is Ye Duan's granddaughter? He didn't have any impression at all, so he asked: "Then the girl of the Ye family, it is very suitable for the Third Highness?" What kind of person is it? β
Such a stunned question, as if he was very interested in the girl of the Ye family, made Qin Yi somewhat surprised. He felt that his son's reaction today was a little strange, and the focus of this matter should be on the Ye family, not on the Ye family girl.
What kind of person is the Ye family girl, what does it matter? As long as she comes out of the Ye family, it's fine!
Qin Yi explained for Qin Ji and said: "The Third Highness already has Luo Bingguang, a force in the army, and with the support of Jingzhao and the civil ministers, the power is enough. What His Royal Highness needs now is the Qing Yao House, which can not only reassure the emperor, but also use the power of the Qing Yao to build momentum in the world. The Ye family has served as the national eunuch for several generations, and its influence among the scholars and civil officials is extraordinary. β
Qin Yi had already stood on the side of the three princes, and he was sincere in planning for the three princes at this moment. No matter what the Chengguo Mansion wants to do, now it is necessary to push the third prince to that position.
"Oh, I see." Qin Ji had no choice but to reply like this, and his tone was always a little sluggish.
The power and the name of the order were only passing in Qin Ji's mind, what he really cared about was whether the Ye family girl was old, temperamental, and appearance, and whether she would be liked by that person......
"You go to Suzaku East Road and inform His Royal Highness of the consideration of the palace. I was afraid that Fang Jixin and those people would be confused, so I asked His Royal Highness to ask for marriage to Zhang Guling's granddaughter. What His Royal Highness lacks most now is not the money of the household department. Finally, Qin Yi said. The consideration of the Chengguo Mansion, of course, has to sue the three princes.
Qin Ji nodded, his expression darkened. Last time, because of this family matter, he broke up with the third prince unhappily, and now he actually doesn't want to go to Suzaku East Road.
After returning to the southeast courtyard, Qin Ji summoned Li Chu and ordered with a calm face: "Go and check the granddaughter of the country's sacrificial wine Ye Duan!" The more detailed the better, and be fast! β
Li Chu didn't ask anything, just nodded respectfully and took the order. He was about to step away when he heard Qin Ji stop him.
"Li Chu, you have already made a mistake in the flower viewing banquet once, this son of the world said, one more time, you will die!" Qin Ji glanced at him and said calmly.
In an instant, Li Chu felt a chill rise from his back, crawling densely to his limbs, making him unable to help but tremble.
Qin Ji's meaning, Li Chu was very clear. He will definitely find out the situation of the granddaughter of the Ye family, and he will never dare to omit the slightest.
It turns out that the potential of man is limitless. Being frightened by Qin Ji like this, Li Chu's ability to do things simply skyrocketed, he mobilized all the manpower at hand to investigate the situation of the Ye family, and sent the situation of the Ye family's granddaughter to Qin Ji in the evening of the next day.
For this piece of information, Li Chu even asked a painter to draw the granddaughter of the Ye family on it, so that Qin Ji could know more intuitively what this girl was like.
"Ye Duan's grandchildren's generation, the situation is a bit special. The grandson is extremely luxuriant. But there is only one granddaughter Ye Wen. Ye's daughter-in-law. It was only after giving birth to seven sons in a row that she got this daughter, and she was very fond of her. Li Chu carefully observed Qin Ji's expression and explained. I was afraid that Qin Ji would not be satisfied. The next moment it will be kicked at him.
After Qin Ji got this information. He has been silent, except for his gloomy face, Li Chu almost couldn't understand what he meant. The fear grew in my heart.
"Send this information to the Three Princes' Mansion, and tell the Chengguo Mansion that the Ye family girl is very good, and the Qingyao family can obtain the name for His Royal Highness, please consider it carefully." Qin Ji said woodenly, please tell Li Chu for Qin Yi's words.
Saying this, his hand tightly squeezed the information sent by Li Chu, and his green tendons protruded, and his expression looked extremely terrifying.
"Aren't you going to the Three Princes' Mansion in person?" Li Chu didn't dare to ask this sentence. After half a ring, he received the information handed over by Qin Ji and left the room as if he had fled.
After Li Chu left with the information, Qin Ji seemed to remember what the Ye family girl looked like, smiling and beautiful, not much different from the Jingzhao powerful girl's family, but this girl would be the future third princess!
Qin Ji wanted to laugh, but he couldn't, he could only look at the candle flame in the room and be stunned, feeling that his mind was empty.
When Gu Chongting came to the Chengguo Mansion, he saw Qin Ji's appearance, looking very lonely and fragile.
Gu Chongting thought of the family affairs of the third prince, and he knew Qin Ji's mood very well, he thought that with Qin Ji's current situation, it was the best time to persuade him to attack Gu Yan.
So he pretended to persuade and said: "Son, sooner or later, the Third Highness will get married, this is a helpless thing." If the prince can be trusted, there is a way to make the third highness empathize with the prince's heart and feelings. β
Although Gu Chongting felt that this was the best time, he beat a drum in his heart. Qin Ji was too moody, and Gu Chongting wasn't sure how he would react.
"Say." Qin Ji still looked at the candle flame sideways, and he didn't bother to look at Gu Chongting.
"The family affairs of the prince are also going to be planned. What kind of mood you are in now, Your Highness must be what kind of mood you are feeling. Gu Chongting said with a sigh.
He said this at a very high level, at least it was a metaphor for the heavy reciprocity of the relationship between Qin Ji and the third prince, which made Qin Ji finally turn his head sideways and set his eyes on Gu Chongting.
Qin Ji's eyes were deep, exuding the coercion of the superiors, as if he wanted to see Gu Chongting into a hole, and the coldness in his eyes made Gu Chongting feel shocked.
Seemingly, the wrong thing was said.
"Gu Chongting, do you know why this son kept you?" Qin Ji smiled suddenly, and the coercion just now was withdrawn at once.
His cruel eyes had not yet dissipated, but there was a strange smile on his face, which made Gu Chongting's face slowly turn pale, and the words he said stammered: "For...... Why ......"
Qin Ji turned his head, as if the question just now did not exist at all. It took a long time for Gu Chongting to hear Qin Ji's words, which made him ecstatic.
"Your mention of yì, I agreed. Go back and send Gu Yan's recent routine and rest. Qin Ji said this, ignoring how happy Gu Chongting was at the moment.
He wondered if that person would be like himself after he knew about it...... Difficult and helpless.
(Extra: This chapter, I think everyone will be able to respond to it, but for the sake of the plot advancement, I want to write it.) Also, last night, I succumbed to the temptation of sleepiness and accompanying my daughter, and I didn't catch the renewal ticket, and I am guilty! I beg your pardon! (To be continued......)
