Chapter Thirty-Eight: Beaten

Previous Chapter

As he spoke, he held Jing Ci's hand with his backhand and swallowed the remaining rock sugar gourds into his stomach one by one, and in Jing Ci's stunned expression, he said as usual, "Sweet." ”

Jing Ci gave a thumbs up and said sincerely, "The general's taste is really different!" ”

Qi Shan smiled a little smugly, reached out and touched her head, and suddenly said, "Do you like horseback riding?" ”

Jing Ci bowed slightly, "It's okay." ”

"That's good," Qi Shan said, "Grandmother gave me a summer resort a few days ago, and built it on Bi'an Mountain on the outskirts of Beijing. When the Lantern Festival is over and the days are warm, how about I take you to the mountains for horseback riding? ”

"Okay!" Jing Ci really said happily, "Then I still have to fly a kite!" ”

"Okay," Qi Shan bowed.

Jing Ci asked again, "What did the general and Steward Liu talk about outside just now?" ”

Qi Shan 1510 said, "A letter from the northeast, hearing that the overseer army is defeated by Beidi, I specially ask the emperor to send troops to assist." ”

"Oh-", Jing Ci nodded and continued, "What did Grandfather Huang say?" ”

"The emperor's grandfather has sent General Weiyuan to lead the troops north, and together with the Zhenbei army, drive the Beidi Iron Cavalry." Qi Shan immediately followed the pole and said.

"You!" Jing Ci blushed and scolded with a smile, "Who is your imperial grandfather?" ”

"Who's your father! I don't have a son like you! ”

In the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department, Ji Yuanda stood in the hall with his hands in his hands, and scolded Ji Yanqing who was kneeling at the door, "You have always loved to be in the limelight!" Now that the wings are stiff, I dare to be presumptuous in the imperial study! Today is a fluke to get the emperor's favor, tomorrow if you unfortunately guess wrong, I see how you end! ”

Ji Yan on the side hurriedly persuaded, "Father is angry! This is the New Year, why do you want to be angry with such a concubine? ”

"Why bother?" Ji Yuanda's eyes widened, and he pointed at Ji Yanqing and said, "You ask him about the good things he did!" In the imperial study, from King Hui of Ping, down to General Shangshu Weiyuan of the Ministry of War, who is not silent? Even the two boys of the Wen family and the Qi family who are so eloquent also know how to judge the situation. Partial life is his eagerness for quick success! Now that he is safe and sound, he is the same as the scenery, if there is a change on the battlefield in the future, see who can protect him! ”

The more he talked, the more angry he became, so he picked up the teacup on the table and threw it at Ji Yanqing's side, and continued, "You rely on your grandfather to support you, and no one is arrogant in your eyes!" I don't even care about it! Today, I will teach you a good lesson. ”

He looked left and right twice but found that he couldn't even find an object around him, and his heart was even more angry, so he rushed out of the door and kicked Ji Yanqing in the chest, ignoring everyone's obstruction, and scolded, "Just drive you out of Ji's house today!" lest you get into trouble and affect the Ji family! ”

Ji Yanqing was kicked to the ground, he was already a weak literati, even if he covered his heart and fell to the ground, when he heard that Ji Yuanda was going to drive him out of Ji's house, he struggled to get up, and when he was struggling, a pair of gentle and powerful arms supported him, and a voice full of worry sounded in his ears: "Yan Qing!" Are you okay! ”

Ji Yanqing shook his head, supported him to stand up, wiped the sweat on his head, and said in a low voice, "Jingwen, I'm fine." ”

The person who came was Jingwen, the prince of the Pingwang Mansion, who held Ji Yanqing steadily, raised his head and said with a little dissatisfaction, "Uncle is cautious!" ”

Although Ji Yuanda secretly had a lot of dissatisfaction with King Ping, he loved Shi Jingwen, a nephew, very much, and it was inconvenient to get angry when he saw him coming, so he only changed the topic and said, "Jingwen, why are you here?" ”

Shi Jingwen was a junior in the end, and he didn't dare to question Ji Yuanda directly, so he endured his dissatisfaction and answered, "Father asked me to give a New Year's gift to my uncle." ”

After saying that, he turned sideways, revealing the little guy and the gift that followed him.

Seeing this, Ji Yuanda immediately made a kind and casual expression, and said with a smile, "Jingwen really has a heart!" Yan Qing, take Jingwen to your yard to play! ”

Ji Yanqing reluctantly raised his hand and said yes, Shi Jingwen also saluted, and the two leaned on each other and left.

After the two of them walked away, Ji Yanzhi walked to Ji Yuanda's side, reached out and touched the jade tonic brought by Shi Jingwen, and complained to Ji Yuanda as if inadvertently, "Father, this Jingwen is really timely." Every time that kid makes you angry, he comes to protect him, and I think he hurts him more than my grandfather! ”

"You know what?"

Hearing this, Ji Yuanda frowned and said, "The two of them grew up together by your grandfather's side since childhood, and their relationship is naturally better." As he spoke, he raised his head and glared at Ji Yanyi, and said, "It's not that you are not angry!" If you know how to please him, wouldn't you be the one who is like a brother to him today? ”

Ji Yanzhi was scolded, and immediately became depressed, but he still muttered in a very angry voice, "Didn't you control it strictly when you were a child, and you didn't allow me to go to my grandfather's place to play with them......

Shi Jingwen helped Ji Yanqing to walk towards his courtyard, and seeing him covering his chest and his pale face along the way, Shi Jingwen couldn't help but say, "You have all entered the Hanlin Academy on duty, why is your uncle still like this to you?" If I hadn't listened to my father say a few words about what happened in the imperial study today, and I knew that something was wrong and hurried here, I wouldn't have known how badly you would be beaten. ”

Ji Yanqing held his hand, shook his head and said, "It's okay, I've been fighting for almost twenty years and I'm used to it." I just hope," he continued, after a pause, "that my father will know how good I am one day." ”

"You-"

Shi Jingwen let out a long sigh and said, "Why is my uncle and grandfather not here today?" If he had been here, his uncle would not have been so presumptuous. ”

Ji Yanqing said, "Grandfather went to visit an old friend today, and before leaving, he said that he would return in a day or two. ”

"That ......"

While he was talking, Shi Jingwen looked at the pavilion opposite and said, "Eh! Isn't that Tang Wanyue? ”

Ji Yanqing looked up at the woman in white in the pavilion not far away, and seconded, "Well, it's Wanyue." ”

Shi Jingwen thought for a while, and sneered in a low voice, "In this mansion, even the daughter of a sinner lives more easily and happily than you!" Yan Qing, why don't you move out! I have a courtyard, and it's in the east ......."

"Honor!" Ji Yanqing interrupted him and said, "The parents are still here, how can the brothers mention separation?" In the future, don't talk about it. ”

The two walked away while talking, and in the pavilion, the maid behind Tang Wanyue said, "Miss, the second prince and the prince of peace are gone." ”

Seeing that Tang Wanyue was stunned and looked at the warm wine in front of her without speaking, the maid said again, "I heard that the second son was beaten again today!" In the front yard, the old man was not there, and no one dared to stop the old man. ”

She tilted her head and saw that Tang Wanyue still didn't pay attention to her, so she boldly continued, "Actually, if the slave says, he deserves it!" Who said that it was his mother who collided with his wife? caused the wife not only to have a miscarriage, but also injured her body, and she can never get pregnant again! It is a great grace for Mrs. to allow him to live with such a deep hatred, and he is still in front of the eldest young master in everything, no wonder the lord and the lady don't like him, so they ......"

"These are also what you can talk about?"

Tang Wanyue came back to her senses, turned her head and interrupted the maid, and said coldly, "I see that you are so eloquent, why don't you go to those taverns to tell stories!" Why bury talent here? ”

Speaking of wine, she was stunned for a moment, and then continued, "You don't have to go to the tavern, I see that the bridge under the moat is also very good, you can definitely support your family if you go there to set up a stall!" ”

After saying that, she leaned over and picked up the flask on the table, lifted the hem of her skirt and left the gazebo, and said softly, "No need to follow." ”

After another half of the hour, the little maid with crimson cheeks in the pavilion complained hatefully, "What's the spirit! Isn't it just a watch lady who fights the autumn breeze? It's not as expensive as the second son! ”

Later, another guest came to King Ling's mansion - before Mama Chen could pass the message, Jing Ci saw Jing Han's eyes crimson, and he ran over with sobbing and choking.

She was embroidering by the window, and when she saw her coming, she hurriedly got up to greet her, and asked, "What's the matter?" What are you crying about? ”

Sheng'er, who followed behind Jing Han, said, "Back to the princess, the county lord asked the princess to beat her." ”

"Huh?" Jing Ci hugged Jing Han, who was crying uncontrollably, and asked, "Why is this?" ”

Sheng'er bowed her head and said, "Today, the princess made a moon-white robe for the county lord, saying that it looks good with the amber jade pendant hanging with lotus flowers, so she asked the county lord to take it out and give it a try." The county lord couldn't be confused by pushing left and right, so he had no choice but to take out the piece you gave, who knew that the princess could see it at a glance, and thought it was the county lord messing around, and exchanged the real jade for someone else's imitation jade, so he hit the county lord's hand. ”

"Huh?"

Jing Ci was taken aback, and hurriedly reached out to pull Jing Han's hand to see, seeing that her palms were red, and she could faintly see the marks of the bamboo board, knowing that she was really beaten hard, she hurriedly asked Mama Chen to take the medicine and come in and dress her carefully.

After the medicine was applied, Jing Han slowly stopped her tears, and Jing Ci took Mama Chen and Sheng'er away, pulled her and asked in a low voice, "Didn't you say that Rong Shizi went to find it for you?" Why haven't you found it yet? ”

Hearing this, Jing Han's eyes turned red, and he sobbed and said, "Third sister, don't mention it!" Brother Rong Xuan spent a lot of effort in and out of the palace, but he didn't find anything, and he was scolded by Uncle Rong, saying that he didn't do anything all day long, so he knew that he was recruiting cats and dogs to do nonsense! ”

"So, what can I do about this?" Jing Ci also said anxiously, "Didn't you say that the suspicion fell on that barbarian proton?" ”

"Oops-" Jing Han said with a bitter face, "Brother Rong Xuan has already gone to him to ask, but he has never said that he has never seen it, and Brother Rong Xuan does not dare to search the palace with great fanfare, so he has to give up." ”

She leaned on Jing Ci, sniffled and said aggrievedly, "If you can't find it, you can't find it, anyway, now that you've beaten and scolded, it's time to dissipate your anger," she said, she raised her slightly swollen palm and looked at it, and said sadly, "Pity my hand, it's so swollen, it's like a bear's paw!" ”

These words made Jing Ci laugh, she shook her hand and pinched the tip of Jing Han's red nose, and said with a smile, "Yes, isn't it a bear's paw?" Look at this chubby appearance, just ask the kitchen to send it to steam! ”
