Chapter Ninety-Seven: Grace

Chen Yuanheng was not surprised and said: "It is Xu Zhijie." ”

Bai hurriedly said: "Isn't Xu Zhijie in the provincial capital, why did he come to Deqing?" actually got on the opposite side of Sister Hu's boat. I don't know if Sister Hu saw it? ”

Chen Yuanheng said: "There shouldn't be, I saw Mrs. Hu, and as soon as she got on the boat, she entered the cabin, so I shouldn't have seen it." The county magistrate of Three Rivers City was worried, and Lord Assassin sent Xu Zhijie to be the county commander of Three Rivers City. ”

Chen Wenjun frowned and said, "Father, is Xu Zhijie here to stir up trouble at this time?" ”

Chen Yuanheng glanced at Chen Wenjun and said, "The official level crushes people to death, and Lord Assassin Shi wants to find something for me to do, but I can't accept it." Hmph, in the same way, can I also find something to do for Xu Zhijie? Just let him have no time to take care of himself. ”

Chen Wenjun glanced at his father with admiration. Chen Yuanheng also frowned: "It's just that I'm strange, Lord Thorn Shi is notoriously slippery, and now at this time, my holy family is just right, how could he come to me for trouble at this time?" ”

Chen Wenjun also pondered when he heard this.

Chen Wenhui thought to herself, her father is actually very smart, and he can see the essence through the phenomenon, and this attitude of the assassin is very revealing of some things.

Chen Yuanheng looked at his family and said, "Okay, we can't let Xu Zhijie disturb our interest, let's treat him as if we didn't see him, it's easy to take a day off, let's enjoy the scenery along the canal together." ”

After saying that, he took his two sons and got on the horse, and Bai also took his daughter to make a carriage. Wen Hui looked at the two elder brothers on the horse at this time, and she was very envious. It's going to take four years before I can learn to ride a horse. It's hard.

In the palace, Concubine De was leaning on the beauty to read a book, and the palace maid Yu'er suddenly hurriedly came over and said: "Niangniang, hurry up, get ready to drive, the emperor is coming this way." ”

Concubine De got up slowly, and while sorting out her clothes, she asked, "I remember in a trance that the emperor seems to have turned over Qian Shuyuan's brand today?" Why did you come to me at this time? ”

Yu'er neatly took out a royal blue feather satin stand-up collar sleeve robe from the wardrobe. On the other hand, he said: "It's Qian Shuyuan's brand, Qian Shuyuan is ready to drive, who knew that the emperor suddenly said that he wanted to come to Zhongcui Palace?" ”

Concubine De put on her robe. Yu'er hurriedly took out a plum blossom collar buckle with red gold inlaid with hundreds of treasures from the dressing table and fixed it on the edge of the standing collar. Immediately it looks very expensive.

At this time, the eunuch's sharp voice sounded: "The emperor has arrived, please take over from Concubine De." ”

Concubine De hurriedly walked to the palace gate with Yu'er, and as soon as she knelt down, the emperor had already arrived, and she did not sit on the golden chariot, but came on foot, only to see the emperor walking like flying. The little eunuch in the back trotted to follow, and the emperor walked quickly to Concubine De and said, "Concubine Ai, hurry up, let's go in and talk." ”

Concubine De hurriedly responded gently: "Thank you." ”

followed the emperor into his own bedroom.

After entering the palace, the emperor sat down directly and said, "Love the concubine." That brother of yours is very capable, what a capable minister. ”

Concubine De was overjoyed when she heard this, and said humbly: "Where, is it that the emperor is so happy today, is my brother doing something?" ”

The emperor smiled and said, "Your younger brother always acts unexpectedly. Now, when he was the county commander, he gave loans to the people, helped the victims, and later donated the technology of raising poultry. The tax and silver are a little less than in previous years, but he is better, but more than last year. I don't understand, how can he pay more taxes when he took out so many taels of silver for the victims last year? ”

Concubine De laughed when she heard this: "I don't understand the things of the previous dynasty." However, when the concubine was at home, this little brother was very smart, and the concubine personally taught him to read. Although he was not born to the concubine's mother, he was also raised by the concubine's mother, and the concubine's father was especially partial to him. He's also weird, when he was a child, he liked those miscellaneous studies, what kind of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, etc., and there was a period of time to specialize in eating and drinking. At that time, the concubine was worried that he would become a gentleman, but she didn't expect to be out of the way now. ”

The emperor was interested: "Really? I hadn't seen him, and I had always thought he was a strict and dignified pedant. Hahaha. ”

Concubine De saw the emperor's hearty smile and laughed along.

After laughing, the emperor said to Concubine De: "It seems that one day I will recall him back to the capital, take a serious look, I really didn't expect that a high-ranking family could come out of such a capable minister." ”

Concubine De thought to herself, the emperor is really prejudiced against the family, why can't a high-ranking family produce talents? Doesn't it have to be a sake-stuffed rice bag? Thinking about it in his heart, he kept a gentle smile on his face, and said: "He is so young, it is also the idea given to him by others, and the concubine does not believe that he has the ability to do so many things." In the concubine's heart, he is still a naughty child. ”

After saying that, he covered his mouth and laughed. The emperor said: "He is now the father of three children, where is he still a child, and the concubine looks at these things he does, all of them are very complete, it can be seen that he is a talent, I think in my heart, he is still young, so he will first put it in the local experience, and after a few years, if it is really a good one, he will find an opportunity to transfer back to the capital, and he may be able to be a minister of individual stocks in the future." ”

Concubine De was shocked in her heart, and thought, it seems that the emperor is very protective of these children of the family, and even the children in her younger brother's family know it clearly, but this younger brother seems to be really competitive, and it is not easy for the emperor to praise him so much. If there really is a day when my younger brother returns to the capital to be the prime minister and enter the cabinet, then his power will be even greater, and the plan he thought of before will be more likely to succeed. Thinking of this, his heart was hot, but his face was not revealing at all, and he still said gently: "The emperor has such great expectations for him, and the concubine sees that he can't afford it." How many catties and taels does he have, don't the concubines know yet? That is, to be a local petty official, where can he enter the court to discuss government affairs in vain. ”

But the emperor said: "Ai Concubine, look at it, your brother will definitely surprise you." Okay, I'm glad to be here today, let's eat at your place, we'll talk more in the evening, we haven't been close for a long time. ”

Concubine De's face turned red and said: "Thank you for the emperor's favor, it's just that the concubines are old, so it's better to invite the emperor to have a meal and go to those young concubines, so that they can hope to spread the branches for the emperor." ”

The emperor came up and took Concubine De's hand and said: "You, you have always been considerate of others, and this is the loss, okay, I have been living here recently, what is delicious food for you here, hurry up, I am hungry." ”

Concubine De hurriedly instructed the palace maids and eunuchs to set the meal.

Here in the Zhongcui Palace was beaming, and over there the queen in the Fengyi Palace said to the palace maid Chunxi with a gloomy face: "Are you saying that the emperor didn't go to Qian Shuyuan's Cailing Pavilion, but went to Concubine De's Zhongcui Palace?" ”

Chunxi cautiously lowered his head and said, "The slave and maid watched the emperor enter the Zhongcui Palace before coming back." ”

The queen smiled gloomily and said: "Hmph, Concubine De has been in the limelight recently, too, although there are many beauties in this palace, most of them are like Wan Guifei who can't be on the table, and the only real family is the Queen Mother, me and Concubine De." Hmph, but can Concubine De compare with us? Their Chen family was originally ranked low in the family, but now it is even more declining, not to mention Concubine De, a prince can't keep it, what's the use? ”

Chunxi said cautiously: "The queen mother is in the world, where can Concubine De compare, that is, Concubine Wan is rampant and domineering in the palace, isn't it rectified as soon as Niangniang makes a move?" It's Qian Shuyuan, who has been very favored recently, and the emperor has been staying in Cailing Pavilion for half a month. I heard that Qian Shuyuan seems to have vomited recently, could it be that she is pregnant? ”

The queen was surprised: "But really? ”

Chunxi looked left and right, there was no one, and then said: "Niangniang before, you asked me to buy the palace maid next to Qian Shuyuan, I bought one, and she sued me, it shouldn't be wrong." ”

The queen groaned.

Chunxi continued: "Niangniang, I don't know if she is a prince or a princess in this baby, if it is a princess, it is fine, if it is a prince, is it ......"

The queen looked up at Chunxi, who swallowed the words that followed.

The queen said: "Now is not the time, don't act rashly yet, now our enemies are Wan Guifei and Concubine De." Concubine Wan has been very quiet recently, but Concubine De has been in the limelight enough recently, all because of her younger brother, you go and contact the people outside the palace, and let Yan Songbai hurry up and do it. ”

Chunxi hurriedly agreed to go down on the pier.

In the Jiuhua Hall where Wan Guifei lived, there was a sound of "touching", it was Wan Guifei smashing things, and the palace maids and eunuchs were so frightened that they hid aside. After a while, it was estimated that Wan Guifei's temper was over, and the palace maid Thrush was about to dare to go in, when she suddenly heard Wan Guifei's shout: "Someone." ”

The thrush hurriedly went in, only to see a mess, but the thrush was not surprised, lowered his head and agreed.

Wan Guifei was full of pearls and emeralds, and when she saw that it was a thrush, she said: "Hmph, so many emperors didn't go to Qian Shuyuan's slut today, but went to Concubine De's old goods?" ”

For the concubine's foul words, Thrush was not surprised, bowed his head and replied: "Back to Niangniang, the emperor went to Zhongcui Palace, but the slave heard that Qian Shuyuan was pregnant." ”

Wan Guifei immediately frowned: "What did you say?" That slut is pregnant? So what do you do? Do you still need my commands? Why not get your hands dirty? I can't get out of this Jiuhua Palace, is your leg broken? ”

The thrush frowned, but he was careful not to let Concubine Wan find out, and said, "Niangniang, I think that Concubine De Niangniang is our henchman now." Are we going to let people deal with Concubine De's younger brother? ”

Wan Guifei snorted and said, "Her younger brother is a concubine, but he is just a five-grade official, what does he do?" What matters now is Qian Shuyuan's belly, understand? ”

The thrush sighed in her heart, but said, "Yes, Niangniang, the slave and maid understand, and the slave and maid will do it." ”
