A spring rain moistens the south of the Yangtze River, the breeze blows, and the greenery is full.

The ancient dry lotus in front of the Qingxi House has already fallen to the ground.

She looked at the magnolia flowers all over the ground and was stunned.

"The princess got up very early today, for that bowl of fragrant longevity noodles." Jiang Lian approached with a thick smile and said softly.

Qingxi turned around and bowed slightly: "Brother Jiang." ”

Since Jiang Lian arrived in Sujiang on that day, he has made his identity clear.

The Jiang family is one of Chen's mouths, and his ancestors settled in Shandong and ran a business of 10,000 yuan.

Jiang Lian is the head of the Jiang family of this generation.

"When I was a child, I visited Mr. Chen with my father, and the princess was still babbling at that time, so there was no image. Speaking of which, I also hugged the princess. He said, his eyebrows were as gentle and warm as a spring breeze.

Qingxi lowered his eyes slightly, his hair was blown across his cheeks by the wind, and he smiled faintly. No wonder he always felt that the eyes in which he looked at himself were as bold as familiarity.

Jiang Lian said that although he knew their identities, he didn't plan to find out so quickly, after all, the matter was big; However, the situation in the city of Shangdu changed, and he realized that he might need to use the power in his hands.

"Then why did you deliberately reveal clues to make us suspect and pursue?" Qingxi was puzzled.

Jiang Lian said with a smile: "I just want to see His Royal Highness King Heng, who has a lot of folklore, has some ability." Besides, I know that your destination is Sujiang, and I also know that after you arrive in Sujiang, some secrets will no longer be secrets, so even if I leak something, it doesn't matter. ”

Qingxi raised his eyebrows and said proudly: "He lives up to the rumors." If he is not mistaken, you should have arranged eyeliner in the mansions of some officials to gather information about the DPRK and China. And this line of eyeliner is the woman in the back house, and she was also the leader of the Oiran on your 10,000 yuan building or flower boat. ”

Jiang Lian admitted very frankly: "Not bad." This is the power of my east, and what the east has in its hands is intelligence. However, we are very fair, and those girls are not pure spies, they are genuinely affectionate. So, after all these years, our sources of intelligence are not all over the central area, but they are sufficient. I will never force them to live with people I don't like, I will not give them any tasks that must be completed, and the information I have obtained is only sent back by them on their own initiative to see the past feelings. However, I will also use the information in my hand to give their husband and son the convenience of their careers, and in the long run, we will form a tacit understanding and mutual benefit. I don't worry that they will reveal my situation to the person next to me, because once I am exposed, they will also expose themselves, and a wise woman will not give any chance to make those who care about her suspicious. ”

"But I don't think that's good." Qingxi frowned.

Jiang Lian was silent for a while, and said unhurriedly: "We have not violated any laws of the country, nor have we done anything to harm the interests of the country. I don't have any other power in my hands," he paused, and smiled, "Now His Royal Highness King Heng needs the only weapon in my hand. ”

Qingxi pursed her lips and said no more.

Then, Jiang Lian told everyone in great detail about the news he got in Beijing.

"The situation in the Holy Majesty is not optimistic, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is currently in charge of the government, but there is no excesses. The Ling Mansion is safe for the time being, and His Royal Highness may be at risk when he returns to Beijing alone. He concluded.

After Xiao Yizheng left Sujiang, Ling Qingsong and Li Han also knew the inside story.

Qingxi did not forget to tell Li Han: "He doesn't want Changfeng to get involved in the political affairs of the DPRK and China, you don't need to do anything." ”

Li Han nodded solemnly and said, "Changfeng won't do anything, but Li Han is ready to send at any time." ”

Qingsong was even more worried about the situation of his parents in Beijing, but he was taught a lesson by Chen Jishen: "Xiaoliu has returned to Beijing, so there is no need to worry." Thou art a parent and a parent ruler, and thou shalt not waste thy government for this reason. ”

Qing loosened his mouth, and wanted to reply with two words, but he felt that it was strange that his grandfather actually let him concentrate on his career and political affairs.

This one shook his head, and Li Han spoke first: "Ling Tanhua, you have to remember that the Nanhu project will officially start tomorrow." ”

He sighed helplessly, and said in his heart that this Li Han really didn't know how to be sophisticated, and he was still in the mood to remind him of this matter at this time.

Jiang Lian continued: "In addition, the news I got is that the illness of the saint this time is related to the case of the opening of the mine in Taeyeong, Yuanzhou, which was recently handled by the DPRK and China. very

Strangely, this case has been in the imperial court for many days, and it stands to reason that the case should have been concluded a long time ago, but there has been no final conclusion for a long time. I have a girl who is the concubine of the prince of Xiangwangfu, and she sent me back the news a few days ago, vaguely saying that the king of Xiang might be involved in the case, and she was also very flustered, afraid that the entire Xiangwangfu would suffer. ”

"Lord Xiang?" Qingxi gasped.

That gentle, gentle and jade-like Uncle Xiang?

She remembered that when they returned to Beijing from Beisu, he was the one who greeted them at the city gate.

Not long after the case of King Guang, if another prince is involved in a case of rebellion, the blow to the emperor can be imagined.

"For the convenience of doing things, I also brought one person to Su Jiang." Jiang Lian's face was slightly relieved, and he said briskly.

Qingxi looked at him suspiciously.

"The princess might as well take a guess."

Qingxi's eyes gathered, and he immediately spit out three words: "Bookworm Wu!" ”

Jiang Lian nodded appreciatively: "Not bad!" Mr. Wu has a unique job, and he can't waste it. He didn't want to come, I said you can see Mr. Chen, he turned his head and packed his luggage and followed, but he was slow and pulled behind. ”

"It's slow!" Zhao Xin, who didn't speak for a long time, followed this sentence coldly, which relieved the solemn atmosphere in the room a lot.

And two days later, when the bookworm Wu asked all the way to Chen Yuan's door, he burst into tears, and when he saw Chen Ji, he almost hugged him.

After the bookworm Wu learned Xiao Yizheng's true identity, he just grew his mouth, and even said a few words about how this is possible, how is this possible, and then what should he do or what he should do, and he doesn't seem to think that it is a big deal to be able to intersect with the prince of the dynasty.

Although everyone in Chen Yuan is still the same on the surface, they all have different degrees of panic and worry, except for Chen Ji.

He is as relaxed and leisurely as he is on the outside, and he is extremely confident that Xiao Yizheng will be safe and sound. Because I also appreciate his chic and cheerful personality, I talk and laugh with him and talk happily.

Xiao Yiran listened to their laughter in the study every day, and the original worry and depression dissipated a lot.

After Xiao Yizheng left, Qingxi told him the truth.

She said: "Xiao Qi, your sixth brother didn't take you back to Beijing because of safety considerations. Together, we prayed for our father's speedy recovery. ”

"Will the third brother hurt the sixth brother?" He asked plainly.

Qingxi was stunned, she knew that Xiao Yiran was precocious, and it was not that she didn't understand the situation.

She shook her head and said, "You are brothers, and that can't be changed. The matter between your third brother and your sixth brother has nothing to do with you. They are not naturally enemies of each other, but they are born in high places, and they can't help themselves. The sixth sister-in-law believes that they, we, will survive this accident safely. ”

Xiao Yiran nodded without hesitation and didn't ask any more.

After that, Chen Ji let him go to the study every day to read and practice calligraphy with him.

Chen Ji didn't say much, gave him a book, held a book for himself, didn't say anything to each other, and began to read.

Occasionally, Chen would ask him where he had read, and he would repeat it briefly, and Chen would make some additions, and then read quietly.

Qingxi knew that although Chen Ji did not accept any students on the surface, he had already taught Xiao Yiran again.

She also lost the trivial matters of taking care of Xiao Yiran, and she has been wholeheartedly planning and arranging for the safety of Xiao Yizheng and her parents in Beijing for the past few days, forgetting that today is her birthday.

At this moment, under the eaves, Jiang Lian was surprised when he heard her call Brother Jiang.

Qingxi smiled and explained: "In the past few days, Brother Jiang has been busy sending and receiving news, and it is also very hard. Since everyone is confessing, you don't have to be too stubborn, I'll call Brother Jiang. ”

Jiang Lian seemed to have a smile on his face forever, and he didn't show the shrewdness of a businessman at all.

"The princess is born today, I don't know what the arrangements are?" He asked.

Qingxi grimaced his face and said, "According to the estimation of the footsteps, Chengzhan will arrive in Shangdu today." This brings us to the beginning of what we had previously arranged. Today, I will invite Mr. Wu and Zhao Xin to have breakfast and start working in the study room in my hospital. ”

Jiang Lian frowned, said a good word, and then said, "The princess is really completely for His Royal Highness King Heng. He looked directly at her and asked, "I wonder if the princess can use the birthday gift I gave to the princess that day?"

Qingxi was stunned, and for some reason he mentioned it, he said apologetically: "Confess."

said that he didn't know the depth of Brother Jiang that day, and he was cautious, so he didn't take out the secret recipe and use it. ”

Jiang Lian nodded in understanding. "Yesterday, I prepared some appetizer soup for Mrs. Chen, and she mentioned the conditioning pills you were taking. Between words, I seem to hear that you don't know the true effect of the pills you're taking. ”

"Brother Jiang reminded me that day, conditioning the body will help you get pregnant."

"Yes, but the point is, it has to be an antidote first."

Qingxi's expression was stunned, showing doubt.

"It seems that the princess doesn't know the truth." Jiang Lian is determined.

"Brother Jiang has something to say."

Jiang Lian hesitated slightly, but looking at Qingxi's expression as he was about to break the sand pot and ask to the end, he confessed: "I said that my nose is very smart, and this is the truth. The tea in Wanyuan Building is a must, and all the recipes are checked by me, so I am very familiar with herbal medicines. The pills taken by the princess are all of the highest quality, but there are two medicinal herbs that will never be used if it were not for the medicinal materials to restrain the woman from slipping the fetus. In other words, the princess should have taken a diet that was harmful to her body before, so she needed these two herbs to dissolve. ”

Qingxi's face turned pale, and surprise was written on his face.

"But the pills you take will recuperate your body, but it will take a long time, and it will inevitably spoil your taste, so all my prescriptions will be useful." He paused, then added, "I thought you knew the inside story, but I didn't want you to know it." But having said that, I don't want to hide it, the princess is so transparent and talented, she should like to be clear. ”
