Chapter Eighty-Three: Never Give Up
Seeing off Mrs. Zhang, Wei Qingqing saw the carriage that was still parked at the palace gate.
The curtain opened, and it was Rong Che's face.
Seeing Rong Che, Wei Qingqing's anxiety in his heart calmed down. No matter what the Queen Mother wants to try, there is still Rong Che behind her, isn't it.
Thinking that he trusted him so much, Wei Qingqing's eyelids jumped, lowered his eyes and bent his knees slightly in his direction, and went back with his grandmother in the direction of Cining Palace.
On the way back, Wei Qingqing walked slowly, saving it early, and the queen mother and the eldest princess had not finished speaking.
Just as he was thinking about it, a burst of laughter suddenly came from the front.
Wei Qingqing knew that it was a nobleman, and immediately avoided it under the wall.
"Hey, who are you, why has this concubine never seen you in the palace?" The delicate female voice was a little arrogant, and the grandmother on one side quickly mentioned a few words in Wei Qingqing's ear, and Wei Qingqing replied: "The courtier is Wei Qingqing, the new daughter-in-law of the Guogong Mansion." Say hello to Concubine Ru. β
"It's you." Concubine Ru wanted to see Wei Qingqing's face, but she kept her head down, so Concubine Ru gave up and ordered to carry her soft sedan chair and continue to move forward, and kept urging before going: "Hurry up, otherwise Sister Concubine Chen will be boring." β
Wei Qingqing lowered her head and waited until Concubine Ru's sedan chair was gone, before she looked up in the direction she left.
This concubine Ru only entered the palace in the last month, and it seems that she is a distant relative of the fourth princess's concubine's mother's family, and by chance she entered the emperor's eyes.
But why did she have such a good relationship with Concubine Chen?
Concubine Chen has been snubbed since the old lady of the Chen family resigned from her official position, and it stands to reason that Concubine Ru should avoid this Concubine Chen.
"Young lady, let's go back to Cining Palace." One side of the grandmother reminded.
"Yes." Wei Qingqing responded, and there were countless questions in her heart, but she didn't ask the grandmother next to her.
Return to Cining Palace. Wei Qingqing's body was a little cooler after being hot.
The eldest princess sat aside with red eyes and wiped her tears, and the queen mother closed her eyes and let the people around her fan it, and she couldn't see her joy or anger, but Princess Ruyang's brows were kept tight, and she glanced at the eldest princess from time to time, as if she was worried about something.
Wei Qingqing came over, pretending not to see this, and only replied to the Queen Mother's words.
"You're doing a great job." After hearing this, the Queen Mother smiled a little: "This Prime Minister's Mansion has not had a decent incident in the past half a year. If you don't teach a good lesson, the women in Beijing will follow suit, for fear that there will be a big mess. β
Wei Qingqing didn't think about what the big mess the Queen Mother was referring to, she only smiled, and said that she didn't understand it when she was young, so she ended the topic.
The Queen Mother looked at Wei Qingqing deeply, and said a few more words, and when she saw that the hour was not early, she said, "Let's stay for lunch and then leave." β
Wei Qingqing thought of Rong Che who was still waiting at the palace gate. was about to speak, but Fang Cai's grandmother opened her mouth one step in advance, and said with a smile: "The Queen Mother doesn't know, Second Master Rong is still basking at the gate of the palace at this time." β
"Oh?"
The Queen Mother was slightly stunned, and then laughed: "The mourning family didn't expect that the two boys of the Rong family were still infatuated seeds." β
Wei Qingqing blushed at the right time.
The Queen Mother looked at Wei Qingqing with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Okay, the mourning family can't be that wicked person." Let your husband bask in the sun for a few more hours, and you can go back. β
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
Wei Qingqing showed the shyness of her little daughter, saluted, and looked at the eldest princess on the side.
The Queen Mother laughed: "Your sister-in-law accompanied the mourning family for lunch before leaving, you can rest assured that the mourning family will not detain your sister-in-law privately." β
Wei Qingqing's eyebrows jumped, this means that the eldest princess will not be allowed to leave Rong Haihe?
Wei Qingqing responded with a smile and retreated.
Coming out of Cining Palace and seeing Rong Che, Wei Qingqing told everything he saw.
After hearing this, Rong Che didn't seem to be relieved, but he didn't hide it from Wei Qingqing: "The Queen Mother refused to agree, because she was afraid that no one would be able to control the eldest brother." β
Wei Qingqing was puzzled, Rong Che smiled and rubbed her head, and then laughed: "Do you really think that the eldest brother is a scholar who knows nothing?" β
"Not really." However, I don't know much about Rong Hai, I only know that he also made a name for himself in the court back then, but soon became a concubine and married Saibei. There was never a splash again.
"The eldest brother is a person who is loved by the army and the people even in Saibei, although the eldest brother has never been out of office for so many years, but the twelve counties and counties in Saibei each respect him, and the six garrisons have an army of 100,000 troops, all of which are the only ones who look to him. Nominally, he's still just an idle colt. Rong Che smiled, and his smile continued to show regret.
"If the eldest brother stayed in the court back then, how could he let Rong Ruizhang sit in the position of prime minister?" When Rong Che mentioned Rong Ruizhang, he couldn't even look down on it.
Wei Qingqing looked at his confident appearance and couldn't help but ask him, "What about the master?" Do you feel sorry for yourself? β
Rong Che stretched out his hand to scoop Wei Qingqing into his arms, squinted at her, and hooked his thin lips: "Lord wants an army, and now he can also get it." The position of the general, for Yu Ye, is like picking up something. So today, the Queen Mother's people will follow you and test your attitude towards the Prime Minister's Mansion. Your attitude represents the attitude of the government. β
Wei Qingqing raised her eyebrows, she really guessed.
"Why has the imperial court been guarding the Guogong Mansion?" This is what Wei Qingqing does not understand the most.
The Wei family's big house is the most promising, and the old man is not a simple character at first glance, but he has had to be outside for so many years. The son of the Rong family rushed to Saibei, and the second son of the Rong family was forced to give up his power and stay at home.
At the mention of this question, Rong Che's eyes deepened a little. The carriage came to a stop.
Kun's voice came: "Master, young lady, it's time to Chongyang Tower." β
"Hmm." Rong Che looked at Wei Qingqing with a smile: "Big brother is also here, let's go." β
Wei Qingqing didn't ask anymore, she thought, when Rong Che wanted to say it, she would naturally tell herself.
After getting out of the carriage, as soon as Wei Qingqing got down, he bumped into Wei Qiongwei, who was limping off the carriage, and next to Wei Qiongwei was another Xu Chang who was limping.
Xu Chang and Wei Qiongwei are now red-eyed enemies when they meet.
Xu Chang's leg was broken because of Rong Ruizhang, Wei Qiongwei is Rong Ruizhang's brother-in-law, and he naturally hates Wei Qiongwei.
"Ma'am, let's go."
Rong Che took Wei Qingqing's hand and said with a light smile.
Wei Qingqing looked at him, blinked his eyes, and walked past Xu Chang and Wei Qiongwei with his stride, so angry that Wei Qiongwei and Xu Chang dared not speak.
"Kun." went up to the second floor, and Rong Che gave Ah Kun a word.
Ah Kun understood, stopped, and waited for them to enter the room, only to look back and see Wei Qiongwei and Xu Chang, who were on crutches and refused to give way to each other, squeezed in from the door, and directly popped out the small beads in their hands and hit Wei Qiongwei's crutches.
Wei Qiongwei lost his balance, and naturally reached out to grab Xu Chang, but Xu Chang didn't stand firm, and squatted back and fell out of the door, causing everyone in the lobby to burst into laughter.
"That's a real misfortune. My hand slipped. β
Although Wei Qiongwei didn't mean to, seeing Xu Chang's ugliness, he laughed out loud with joy.
Xu Chang's face turned blue, looking at Wei Qiongwei who Shi Shiran had left, he finally got up from the ground, and the little guy on one side persuaded: "Son, let's go back." β
"Go back?"
Xu Changyin pushed the little guy away, looked at his crutches hatefully, and then looked at Wei Qiongwei who left. With a sneer, he directly beckoned the little guy over and whispered a few words in his ear.
The little guy was so frightened that he trembled: "Childe, this is not good, in case someone finds out??"
"I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?" Xu Chang glanced at the people who were still laughing in the lobby, gritted his teeth and continued inside.
After Ah Kun saw Xu Chang's reaction, he directly asked people to quietly follow Xu Chang.
In the room, as soon as Wei Qingqing came in, he saw Rong Hai sitting by the window playing chess with Yan Ruan, and Wei Xun was also there. Moreover, Wei Xun also clearly saw the difference between Yan Ruan and Rong Hai and himself.
Wei Qingqing glanced at Rong Che, and Rong Che looked at her: "Isn't it good to arrange it like this?" β
"Nature is good."
It's good to let the eldest brother see Mr. Yan's heart clearly, but the autumn is coming, and I don't know if the eldest brother will be stimulated.
Rong Che went over and sent Wei Xun out, leaving their brother and sister to talk.
"How is the eldest brother doing?" Wei Qingqing asked him.
"Good." Wei Xun looked at Wei Qingqing with complicated eyes, and then sighed in his heart, he was a big man, and he didn't think as long as a little woman: "Little sister." I see what you're thinking. You are for the good of the Wei family, why am I good. β
"Is the eldest brother really willing to give it up?" Wei Qingqing asked again.
Wei Xun smiled at her, and then stood by the window and looked at the pedestrians on the street, and smiled: "What if you can't give up?" I'm self-aware, and I don't want to make things difficult for others. Mr. deliberately asked me to watch chess today, just to let me die of this heart, in this case, why should I be entangled, both annoying people. It's also out of proportion. β
Wei Qingqing saw that he was so open-minded, and finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked him about Qiuyu.
When he mentioned this matter, Wei Xun's eyes had some brilliance, and he unexpectedly found that his little sister's opinion on the article was more interesting.
Inside the house, Rong Hai looked at the two people who were talking happily outside, and laughed: "Wei Xun is a rare open-minded person. β
"He's not deep. is proud in his bones, so he should naturally take care of it. Yan Ruan laughed, but Rong Hai looked at her deeply.
"You don't have to worry about me." Yan Ruan knew what Rong Hai meant, and he hoped that he could withdraw in time like Wei Xun, but her heart was already on him, how could she pull it back: "I only teach Wei Xun for one year, and I will leave after teaching, and it will not hinder your business." β
"Ruan'er, I owe you." Rong Hai smiled apologetically.
Yan Ruan was calmer than him, still holding the chess pieces steadily: "None of us owe anyone, you are you, I am me, I like you is my business, you don't like me, it's your business, it's irrelevant to each other." β
Luozi, Yan Ruan won Rong Hai.
Rong Hai laughed: "You won again, what do you want this time?" Or do you continue to hold on to your desires? When the two first met, the arrogant Yan Ruan challenged Rong Hai with a chess game, and no matter who won the two, they could agree to each other's conditions.
On the day Rong Hai married the eldest princess, he used all his winning conditions to exchange Yan Ruan for giving up himself. But since then, he has never won against Yan Ruan.
Yan Ruan smiled, as if he didn't remember the past: "Until now, you owe me twenty-eight rounds, and you have saved them all." I'll ask you to cash in later. β
After Yan Ruan finished speaking, he went out.
"Isn't the eldest brother still dead set on the eldest princess?" Rong Che asked him, and told him about the events of the palace today.
"The eldest princess is too simple and doesn't know the sinister world." Rong Hai didn't complain about the eldest princess, but he didn't give up yet.
Seeing him like this, Rong Che didn't persuade him anymore, but only ordered the meal to be served and start eating.
And this is downstairs.
Wei Qiongwei was obviously very happy after seeing several ministers under the prince in the private room, but he didn't know that his father had secretly changed the people he supported.
When he was full of wine and food, Wei Qiongwei went to the toilet, and he didn't notice that Xu Chang's people were secretly following him.
"It's so comfortable."
Wei Qiongwei sighed and was about to come out of the latrine, only to find that his latrine had been locked from the outside at some point.
Wei Qiongwei immediately thought of Xu Chang.
"Xu Chang, your cheap embryo, hurry up and open the door for the master, who do you think you are, the son of the second-grade Shangshu family, dare to attack Lao Tzu. I'm going out and killing you! β
"Childe, this??"
Not far away, the little guy looked at Xu Chang nervously, but Xu Chang snorted coldly: "What are you afraid of, it's just to lock him up for an afternoon and smoke him." β
The little guy was frightened, you didn't say that, you put a lot of poisonous snakes in this toilet, and Wei Qiongwei's legs and feet were inconvenient. In case you get bitten, then??
"Okay, let's go."
Xu Chang listened to the scolding of jumping feet in the thatched house, his face became more and more gloomy, and he turned his head and went back.
In the dark, the people arranged by Ah Kun thought that this was the end of the matter, and were about to go back to report it, when they saw another figure rushing out, stabbing into the not spacious thatched house with a swift sword, and lit a fire by the way. Then he threw down a waist card and quickly evacuated.
The person in the dark jumped, just waiting for the person to leave, he quickly jumped down and picked up the waist card, and when he saw that it was from the Guogong Mansion, he even picked up the waist card and went back to reply.
Kun went to Rong Che's side and whispered, then presented the waist card.
"Where are the Xu Chang people?" Rong Che asked.
"I'm drinking downstairs." Ah Kun reacted and immediately responded; "Minions, let's do it." Although it is the second master who is framed by the people in the shadows, Xu Chang is now the best scapegoat.
"Arrange for someone to find out who did it." Rong Che said again.
Ah Kun should go down.
After the order, Rong Che briefly said what happened below, except for Wei Xun, everyone else present was just solemn, but Wei Xun's hand holding the wine cup was shaking.
Wei Qingqing looked at Rong Che, and Rong Che looked at Wei Xun at this time: "I'll ask someone to send you and Mr. Yan back to Wei Mansion first." β
"It's fine." Yan Ruan responded lightly.
Wei Xun looked at her with a normal expression, and he couldn't say what he felt in his heart.
Everyone present, even weak women like Mr. Yan and Xiaomei, could not change their faces, but they looked frightened. It really made him ashamed of himself.
Wei Qingqing saw Wei Xun leave with a gloomy face, knowing what he was thinking, but he didn't stop it.
As long as the eldest brother steps into officialdom, he will only see more such things, and instead of comforting him, it is better to let him digest it slowly.
But who will be the person who attacked Wei Qiongwei today and wanted to frame Rong Che?
In the alley not far from Chongyang Building.
Nanping saw the man in black who came back with a bloodstained sword: "Is it done?" β
"Everything is according to your orders, and it just so happens that Na Rong Che is here today." The man in black replied.
"That's good." Nan Ping smiled coldly: "Now, then Wei Rampant should have no worries." β
The news came back to the General's Palace.
Qu Shi rushed over as soon as possible, looked at Wei Qiongwei, who was carried back and was completely silent, and directly rolled his eyes and fainted.
"Why did the second son go out today! Didn't I warn you that he was not allowed to go out during this time! Wei Yi looked at the kneeling guy on the ground and scolded.
The little servants knew that they had made a big mistake, so they dared to hide it, so they only told Wei Qiongwei about the prince's people for a drink, and the dispute with Xu Chang.
When Wei Yan heard this, even if he had been fighting on the battlefield for many years, he still felt that his feet were fluttering.
What did the prince's men do to his son?
Someone killed right under their noses, and they didn't even find out? Or is it because he realizes that he wants to go to another master, so he deliberately lets it go?
And that Xu Chang??
"Have you found out, is it really Xu Chang's doing?" Wei Yan didn't believe that Xu Chang dared to blatantly kill his son, not to mention that today's Chongyang Tower, Rong Che is also there!
"General Hui, we've checked. When Childe went to the thatched house, it was Xu Chang's people who transferred all the childe's servants, and later it was Xu Chang's little maid who locked Childe in the thatched house and stopped the people who were going to the thatched house. The man below replied.
After hearing this, Wei Yan didn't think about it, and kicked several of Wei Qiongwei's little guys to the ground: "Pull these useless wastes down and kill them with a cane!" β
The little guys all begged for mercy, but Wei Yan looked at the corpse of his only sister-in-law gloomily, and closed his eyes deeply: "Go to the mountain and bring the third lady back!" β
Qu on the side finally relieved his breath and cried: "Master, you have to avenge our Wei'er!" β
Wei Yan was willing to breathe this evil breath right now, but today's incident is clearly strange.
At this time, Xu Chang was so frightened that he didn't dare to come out under the quilt.
On a hot day, Mrs. Xu was worried that he was stuffy, so she asked someone to bring in an ice basin while persuading her heart. The people of the Xu family didn't know that Xu Chang had killed Wei Qiongwei.
Until Jing Zhaoyin's people came to the door.
When Xu Chang was taken away, he was still shouting: "Mother, I didn't kill anyone, you have to save me, mother--! β
The Xu family was in a mess, and Mrs. Xu cried to the Zhu family again.
When Zhu Zhu heard the news, she was a little happy, until Mrs. Zhu entered her room with red eyes.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?"
Zhu Zhu looked at Mrs. Zhu's tears, thinking that she was worried about Xu Chang, but who knew that Mrs. Zhu looked at her with tears in her eyes, and cried out: "Pity my son." β
Zhu Zhu seemed to be struck by lightning, and was stunned in place, and it took a long time before he made a voice: "Mother, isn't it grandmother??" Are you going to marry her to your cousin at this time?
