Chapter 80: The Beginning
Princess Qin has been thinking about what benefits she can get from him since she knew that Zhao Duoyi was apprenticed, but she didn't expect that her son, who had been pampered by her heart for nearly twenty years, actually gave the greatest benefit to Zhao Duoze, which made Princess Qin how could she not vomit blood?
Especially Zhao Duoyi put on a filial son in front of her, which made Princess Qin's heart feel angry.
I wanted to attack Zhao Duoyi 'without conscience' several times, but Princess Qin pretended to be virtuous and virtuous all her life, and had no desires and desires, and at this time, she was planning with Zhao Duoyi on the formation diagram and competing with Zhao Duoze, which would destroy the good pictogram of Princess Qin.
Originally, Princess Qin thought that out of sight was pure, but Jiang Luyao suddenly became close to her, and came to the room several times to look for her, but she didn't say much, not that Jiang Luyao's mother's father, Jiang Erye, didn't know how to do Yang Shuai's possessed object, that is, the array map helped Jiang Erye a lot...... These words made Princess Qin, who had just relieved herself a little bit in her heart, even more uncomfortable.
Speaking of recuperation, Jiang Luyao called the imperial doctor not to say, and often served in front of Princess Qin's bed, afraid that Princess Qin would be bored, because of the inappropriate age, Jiang Luyao was filial and often called her mother to talk to Princess Qin.
The second wife's maiden family is just an ordinary scholarly family, and the second wife doesn't like to read in her life like Jiang Erye, and she has no skills in cultivating sentiment such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, etc., she is a talker, and she is sincere, seeing that Princess Qin frowned irritably, the second wife sat next to Princess Qin and opened the chatterbox.
The second wife can speak for an hour with one mouth, which makes Princess Qin so depressed that she wants to seal the second wife's mouth.
It's a pity that Princess Qin didn't dare to do this, because she has always been a famous lady and the second wife is no longer on the same level, and Princess Qin's patience is not necessarily bad, just as the left and right in and out of the right ear, just let the second wife speak in the ear.
This trick is useful for others, but it has no effect on the second wife, because the second wife will ask Princess Qin from time to time where she said?
Princess Qin has eaten the second wife's thoughts, you speak by yourself, you still don't remember where you said?
Is there such a stupid person?
If Princess Qin couldn't answer, the second wife looked at her with pity, as if she didn't know what she was thinking, as if she was going to die, in front of her, the second wife would tell Jiang Luyao to be filial to Princess Qin, and that tone made Princess Qin suspect that she was seriously ill.
Princess Qin doesn't have to doubt that Jiang Luyao brought the second wife here, it must have been deliberate, Jiang Luyao was not angry with her enough, and she brought the second wife to be angry with their mother and daughter...... Princess Qin was 'devastated and tortured', who will tell her in the future that virtuous and virtuous is a model of a famous lady, and she has to spit on that person's face.
The second wife lives a lot more freely, counting silver tickets all day long, looking forward to the birth of her grandson, she doesn't have to worry about anything, Jiang Erye is single-minded to her, Princess Qin listened to it, and was vaguely envious of the second wife's life.
If she hadn't married King Qin as a stepconcubine, wouldn't she have to calculate all day long to win over King Qin?
Princess Qin not only wants everything in the Qin Palace, but also wants the King of Qin to treat herself wholeheartedly, so she is gentle and considerate in front of the King of Qin, if she only wants to guard the title of the princess, things will be much simpler.
Although she is a step-concubine, she is also a legitimate concubine of the King of Qin, as long as she does not steal people, does not mutilate the original concubine, and does not disobey the concubine, the status of Princess Qin is stable.
Under the constant harassment of the second wife, if Princess Qin pretends to be sick again, it may become a real illness, and in a few days, Princess Qin's condition has improved, and she is very grateful to the second wife for her company in the past few days.
*******
"I'm tired of it."
The second wife poured a big sip of tea and said to Jiang Luyao: "No matter how bad her illness is, I don't know what to show, Yaoyao, I even said that your father likes to buy me fat powder the most." ”
"Mother, I didn't let you show off?"
"I don't know you yet, you girl?" The second wife poked Jiang Luyao's forehead, "If you don't say some things, I know how to say them." ”
Jiang Luyao filled the teacup in the second wife's hand with tea, "Mother, thank you." ”
"Thanks for what? Yaoyao said this again, I have to beat you, when you were still at home, I asked you to help make the account book, thank you? Isn't it just to stimulate your mother-in-law to be angry with her son-in-law? This little thing doesn't take much effort for me, and I am also happy to embarrass Princess Qin. ”
The second wife is a mother, and she values her children the most, strictly speaking, she is afraid that Jiang Erye will be behind, so the second wife especially cherishes her son-in-law Zhao Duoze, and is always the same as Jiang Luyao, the son-in-law is too hard, too tired, too wronged, and the son-in-law's mother doesn't know what to be sad about when she knows it.
Therefore, if she can help her son-in-law vent her anger, the second wife is happy to do this work.
"Yaoyao, I didn't say you, your hands are too loose, this is not good." The second wife was about to go back to the Yongning Hou Mansion while sitting and taking a breath, but who knew that the housekeeper's mother in the backyard talked back, Jiang Luyao asked the second wife to sit, and she went to the front to listen to the housekeeper's mother.
After the housekeeper's mother left, the second wife said to Jiang Luyao: "The Qin Wangfu family has a big business, and Yaoyao is also good at making money, but the silver can't be taken away casually. ”
"I know." Jiang Luyao knew the kindness of the second wife, but the Qin Wangfu of the first door could not be stingy, she also had the eager Princess Qin and the compassionate concubine who tolerated the subordinates, Jiang Luyao wanted to take care of the Qin Wangfu according to her own ideas, it was not achieved overnight.
She had to take her time one step at a time.
"Don't blame me for being troublesome, Yaoyao, what a pity to put a pile of stones in the warehouse? And I've heard that the price of stone has dropped recently. ”
"The stone was brought back by the concubine, even if you lose money, you have to keep it."
Jiang Luyao's recent energy has focused on Zhao Duoze, and she doesn't pay much attention to the stone that is quite large, listening to the second wife talking about the stone, Jiang Luyao thinks that it is time to think of a way, even if you have silver, you can't waste it in vain.
In the palace, the Queen Mother made a decree - thrifty, even if the concubine had the intention to clean up the palace, she did not dare to repair the palace after the Queen Mother just made the will.
The concubine, who has always been cautious about the emperor, could not make the emperor feel that the Qin Palace's mansion was rich and noble at this time.
This batch of stones...... In fact, it is the most cost-effective to sell.
Replace the stone with silver, and wait until you can buy it again in the future, and the silver can be operated to earn more silver, even if you lose some money by selling the stone, Jiang Luyao is confident that she can earn it back on the side.
She said that she had moved the concubine, and was about to deal with the matter of stones, when she suddenly heard the second wife talk about the price drop, and asked; "How much has it dropped?"
"More than a third." The second wife said: "All I say, nothing is as good as silver!" ”
Jiang Luyao frowned, a third? How can there be so many?
The price of consumables such as stone will not be suddenly reduced so much, because the profit of stone is the lowest, and one-third is sold at a loss.
"Mother, is there any news outside?"
"I haven't heard your father say that." Seeing Jiang Luyao's solemn eyes, the second wife asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"It's fine." Jiang Luyao smiled, took the arm of the second wife, and said coquettishly: "I lost such a large amount of money the first time I was in charge, mother, I was so wronged." ”
"It's okay to let Her Royal Highness the Concubine toss a little less, and it's serious to have more silver."
"Okay, next time my mother comes to the Qin Palace, you can talk to the concubine."
Jiang Luyao didn't want the second wife to see the abnormality, so she diverted the topic of stones, "Have grandfather and grandmother reconciled?" ”
She worked hard to design that the two went to Xiangshan, and it happened to be raining, and it happened that the entourage of the two did not bring umbrellas, and it happened that there was a pavilion in Xiangshan...... How to develop in the future, Jiang Luyao doesn't know, she also heard Zhao Duoze say that there will be rain in the near future.
If it weren't for the heavy rain, the two old men and grandmothers who would quarrel when they met and misunderstood each other would never be able to say two words.
In fact, Jiang Luyao wanted to design a cave or something, but later thought about it too bloody.
"Them?" The second wife shook her head, "It seems to be more noisy, and when we meet, we will quarrel, and we will even quarrel for breakfast and steamed buns." ”
"They're having breakfast together?" Jiang Luyao was quite interested, "It's a good thing to be able to have breakfast together, it's a great thing." ”
"You haven't seen them quarrel, every day the Yongning Marquis Mansion shakes the mountains, if I say that the emperor should not make the Jiang family the Marquis of Yongning......"
The second wife shook her head and said: "I have never seen such stubborn two people, obviously they are both for the good of each other, but they have to be separated, why fight?" I'm a lot older, and I'm like a child. ”
"I think my grandparents can't make up for the regrets of the past few decades."
"I hope so."
"Did they move in together?"
"Yaoyao!"
"I don't care about my grandmother."
"The trick you gave to the old lady tossed your grandfather so much, and your father was distressed when he looked at it."
The second wife took Jiang Luyao's hand, "It's the first time I've heard your father wait for you to go back to your parents' house and want to train you." ”
"My grandfather has been messing with my grandmother for so many years for a misunderstanding, not like a generous man, who will he clean up if he doesn't clean up? Grandmother is not good, if it is me, I have to hold His Majesty and Zhao Duoze to make it clear. ”
"Your grandmother isn't as bold as you are." The second wife looked at Jiang Luyao for a while, and wondered, how did she and Jiang Erye raise a daughter? Jiang Luyao's personality is not like them at all.
That is, Jiang Luyao is smart, otherwise the second room will definitely not be today.
In the past, Jiang Erye was not as good as he is now.
The second wife thought of her mother's sisters, and she was very proud in her heart, in the past, her mother's sisters said that they were poor fortune tellers, but now she is the wife of the prince of the prince, her daughter is the princess of the Qin Dynasty, her son is expected to take the imperial examination, her daughter-in-law is sensible and pregnant, and the second wife has the best life among her sisters.
They were not happy to associate with the second wife before, for fear that the second wife would kiss them, but now the baby in the daughter-in-law's belly, who does not know men and women, has been remembered by many people.
Jiang Luyao is not pregnant yet, so someone came to ask if the prince was a concubine.
Of course, the sisters who asked these words were beaten out by the second wife, she shouted that Zhao Duoze was wholeheartedly devoted to Jiang Luyao, and would never accept a side concubine, her words quickly spread to the capital, and people with good things went to the prince of Qin to verify, Zhao Duoze replied coldly, didn't my mother-in-law say it? What else to ask?
In front of him, the prince of Qin is romantic, and now he is dedicated and affectionate, and he is valued and entrusted with important tasks by the emperor, and many ladies envy Jiang Luyao, who is recognized as the happiest couple in the capital, and it is none other than the husband and wife of the prince of Qin.
*******
Xiao Zhai, since she came back from the paddock, Jiang Luqi has been sick, and she is very sick, the pictures of the past life and the present life echo each other, and she can't tell which is real.
Xiao Ruihua has been busy with government affairs recently, and took the initiative to show loyalty to the emperor, although the effect is not very good, but fortunately, after Jiang Erye's gags, the emperor is still the same as before, Xiao Ruihua is grateful to Jiang Erye from the bottom of his heart, and he is also pleased to marry his only sister to Jiang Wenjin.
But he knew that he couldn't rely on Jiang Erye for a lifetime, so in addition to continuing to follow the emperor closely, Xiao Ruihua began to slowly cultivate his strength in the court.
Xiao Ruihua is not deeply rooted, and he will not enter the party that is already deeper, because even if he is included in the party by the political bigwigs, it will be difficult for him to become the leader of that faction.
He is slowly issuing his own political opinions, not relying on it, forming his own party, with his good reputation in Shilin, he will gather more and more like-minded people around him.
Because he was busy, and he always had a grudge against Jiang Luqi, after he heard that Jiang Luqi was sick, he only called the imperial doctor and told the servants to take good care of Jiang Luqi, and he did not personally visit the sick Jiang Luqi.
When Jiang Luqi was sober, seeing that there was no one around her, her heart was sad, how could Xiao Ruihua be so affectionate?
"Miss, my uncle is too busy, don't cry."
"You don't have to say nice things for him, I am disheartened with him and will not persuade me anymore."
"It's not that the slave is talkative, you are always stiff with your uncle, it's not good for you, your uncle has a lot of entertainment outside, and there are a lot of troubles, after you return home, you will show him a face, how can your uncle have a heart with you?"
"I don't have to have a heart to heart with him, I have the ability, if I dislike me, he will divorce me! I'll see what kind of good wife he can find. ”
Jiang Luqi was reprimanded by Xiao Ruihua, and she also knew that it was a bit inappropriate for her to recommend Xiao Zhuohua, but she was really thinking about Xiao Ruihua at that time, without the slightest selfishness, even if Xiao Ruihua disagreed with her and did not understand her intentions, she should not start beating people!
She dared to say this because Xiao Ruihua didn't dare to divorce his wife and ruined her reputation, and she dared to be angry with Xiao Ruihua, also because she was the granddaughter of Yongning Hou.
"You don't have to say good things for him, tell me the news outside, how is the condition of His Royal Highness the Prince?"
Jiang Luqi couldn't go out, and Xiao Ruihua didn't prohibit her maid from going out, so there was still a lot of news in the capital that came to the maid's ears.
"It is said that His Royal Highness the Prince's condition has improved, but the slave and maid don't know what the specific situation is, and there is everything outside."
"Hmm." Jiang Luqi doesn't need to ask, Xiao Zhuohua's treatment of the prince must have subsided, which is also one of the reasons why Xiao Ruihua did not come to his room.
If Xiao Zhuohua went to the Prince's East Palace, Xiao Ruihua would definitely be angry with himself again, Jiang Luqi couldn't figure out what method Jiang Erye used to kill the emperor's intention to save the prince.
None of them are loyal ministers, calculating interests, and there is no emperor in their eyes.
The prince is the prince of a country, the cornerstone of the Ming Dynasty, Xiao Zhuohua obviously has the ability to save the prince but turns a blind eye, she is really a ruthless woman!
"What else? What else do you have any news for me? ”
"The most widely circulated news today is about the ...... of the prince of Qin"
"He? What could he do? ”
Jiang Luqi instinctively looked down on the incompetent and mediocre Zhao Duoze, the reason why she didn't tell Zhao Duoze's lowly identity was that there was no evidence, second, she didn't want to offend the Yang family and Princess Qin, and third, she just wanted to see Jiang Luyao's jokes.
"Miss doesn't know, the prince of Qin has been favored by a lot of ladies recently, he is very affectionate and dedicated to the princess is the second aunt and grandmother, and he said that he doesn't want a side concubine."
"...... "Don't want a side concubine?" Is this what Zhao Duoze said? Why does Jiang Luqi feel that she hasn't woken up?
"There is also that the slave maid also heard that the emperor ordered the prince of Qin to officiate Yang Shuai, who was the only male of the Yang family to be the main priest in the past, and the people were talking about it, saying that this was a sign that the emperor reused the prince."
"Priest Yang Shuai? Is he worthy? ”
"Miss!"
"You don't understand, he doesn't ...... at all It's not ...... at all" Yang Shuai's grandson, Jiang Luqi hid this secret in his heart, Zhao Duoze not only ruined Zhao Duoyi's eyes, but also forced the nurse who served him since he was a child to death, and even fisted and kicked Yang Men Taijun, but also did a lot of cruel and hurtful things in order to continue to be Yang Shuai's grandson.
In this life, Zhao Duoze actually became the chief priest of Yang Shuai?
"Yang Shuaiquan is very sad to know ......"
"No, I heard that Yang Shuai agrees with letting the prince be the main sacrifice, and they have all appeared."
"What? Yang Shuai's apparition? Jiang Luqi suddenly turned over and got up, grabbing the handmaid's arm, "Tell me, talk to me." ”
The maidservant was startled by Jiang Luqi, and told Jiang Erye about being possessed by Yang Shuai, Jiang Luqi's eyes suddenly became distracted, how could it be? shouted: "This is fake, fake, how could Yang Shuai possess him?" Isn't that a lie? Who gave him the audacity to make trouble for the Yang family? ”
"This morning, Second Master Jiang presented the formation diagram to the emperor in front of the important ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, saying that it was drawn according to the memory of being possessed by Yang Shuai."
Xiao Ruihua picked up the curtain and entered the door, he originally came back early because he felt a little guilty about Jiang Luqi, and wanted to come to see Jiang Luqi, no matter what, she is always the wife she married back justifiably, the wife is not smart enough and stupid, he wants to teach slowly, he can always make Jiang Luqi smarter.
Because of the relationship between the Yongning Marquis Mansion, Xiao Ruihua could not keep Jiang Luqi for the rest of his life, and the Xiao family would not be good-looking without the wife in charge.
However, after he listened to Jiang Luqi's words at the door, he became more and more disappointed in Jiang Luqi, it seems that Jiang Luqi's illness is still getting better.
"The emperor admits it, who dares to talk more? In the future, you are not allowed to say this again. Madam, I don't want to help you clean up the mess anymore, if you don't understand, you can not speak. ”
"Xianggong ......"
Jiang Luqi reached out and grabbed Xiao Ruihua's sleeve, "Could it be that no one suspects?" The emperor admits such an absurd thing for the sake of a few array diagrams? Zhao ...... How could the prince of Qin be the main sacrifice? No one in the Yang family? ”
The news of the maidservant girl is all gossip, and Jiang Luqi wants to get the confirmed news from Xiao Ruihua's mouth.
"This morning, not only did Jiang Erye present the formation map, but also the Marquis of Yongning wrote a letter to implore the emperor to appoint the prince of Qin as the commander of the Shenji Battalion."
"Coax."
Camp Divine Machine? Jiang Luqi's head seemed to have been blown open, "The Shenji Camp is our Jiang family, how can it fall into his hands?" ”
"You are confused, the Shenji Camp belongs to His Majesty, when did it become the Marquis of Yongning's mansion?"
Xiao Ruihua suppressed his envy for Zhao Duoze, and knew that it was Jiang Erye who fought for his son-in-law behind his back, "The emperor approved the invitation of the Marquis of Yongning, appointed the prince of Qin Wang as the commander of the Shenji Battalion, and asked the Ministry of War to transfer troops to fill the vacant captains and soldiers of the Shenji Battalion. Later, the commander of the Shenji Battalion was the prince of King Qin. ”
The seemingly inconspicuous Shenji Battalion in the capital returned to the royal family.
The emperor transferred troops to the Shenji Battalion, dispatched food and salaries, and dispatched weapons, and trusted the prince of Qin too much, even if the prince of Qin was a good general chosen by the emperor for the prince, it was a bit too much to be so favored, after all, the other half of the blood of the prince of Qin's body came from the Yang family......
Even if Second Master Jiang inherited Yang Shuai's 'heroic soul', the emperor would not be afraid that the prince of Qin would avenge his grandfather?
The biggest mastermind of the Yang family's unjust case back then was the current emperor.
How so? How so?
Jiang Luqi's body was soft and cried on the bed, and she said to herself: "It's different, it's different." ”
Suddenly, Jiang Luqi's eyes lit up for a moment, and she asked in a gaffe, "What about Zhao Duoyi?" How is he? ”
Hearing other men's names from Jiang Luqi's mouth, Xiao Ruihua couldn't dislike it, he had cared about Zhao Duoyi before, with the strong rise of the prince of Qin, the son of the second son of King Qin and Princess Qin, who was very famous earlier, was not as conspicuous as Zhao Duoze.
The emperor absolutely does not want to see the Qin Palace's talents.
"He continues to be the emperor's personal entourage, and I am afraid that he will be crushed by the prince in the future."
"No, he is, he is ......"
Jiang Luqi muttered bitterly, "You believe me, he is a good person, a capable person, Zhao Duoze has no way to compare with him." ”
"Presumptuous, the name of the prince of Qin is also what you can call?" Xiao Ruihua flicked his sleeves, "I see that your illness is getting worse and worse." ”
Zhao Duoze is Jiang Erye's son-in-law, and Xiao Ruihua can't be an enemy of Zhao Duoze no matter whose face he sees.
He brushed his sleeves away, Jiang Luqi lost his voice in pain, and poor Zhao Duoyi ...... Everything he had was snatched away by the impostor bastard, Jiang Luqi regretted it a little, if she had fought hard to be Zhao Duoyi's wife before, would she be better off now?
Xiao Ruihua is not like the person she remembers at all, maybe Jiang Luyao also laughed in front of people and cried behind her back in her last life.
But marrying Zhao Duoyi, she will have to face Princess Qin again...... Jiang Luqi wrapped her arms around her and stopped the shivering on her body, "Come on, Jiang Luyao will be unlucky, she will let you understand how deep her scheming is, I don't believe it...... I don't believe that Zhao Duoze can change for the better. ”
*******
After King Qin went down to court, he was caught up by Jiang Erye, regardless of whether King Qin was willing or not, Jiang Erye was cheeky and took the initiative to return to the palace with King Qin.
Knowing that Jiang Erye was difficult, King Qin couldn't send him away, so he could only talk to Jiang Erye in detail in the study. King Qin, who was slowly tasting tea, couldn't figure out what Jiang Er Ye was doing, but he was careful, Jiang Er Ye's means of extorting bamboo were too powerful, and he could still summon Yang Shuai......
The author has something to say: a series of things have begun, and it's time for the male protagonist to rise.
