Chapter 245: I can't keep it at all
When Yun Xian heard this, she actually grabbed Wen Qingzhu's hand with a grateful face: "Really? It's better like this, can I call you Sister Qingzhu in the future? β
Wen Qingzhu was slightly surprised, and then smiled gently: "Yes, then I will call you Sister Xian in the future." β
The two of them were falsely moved, and then they held hands with each other and headed towards the place where the princes were hunting.
A quarter of an hour later, they came to the door of a small courtyard.
There are a lot of chamberlains and guards here.
When I saw them coming, a father-in-law who looked like a steward came over.
"The minion has seen Miss Yun, Miss Wen."
"You're welcome, when will they come back again, Your Highness? The dinner is about to begin in two hours. Although Yun Xian said this, her eyes were looking at the road to the south.
The steward's father-in-law led them to a small pavilion and sat down, and instructed the little father-in-law to serve tea, and then explained: "Your Highness, they have already come back three times, and just now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that if they come back with another batch of prey, they will not go." β
"Reward!" Yun Xian said with a smile.
The maid beside her immediately took out a piece of gold and handed it to the housekeeper's father-in-law.
Wen Qingzhu squinted, slightly surprised in his heart.
Is the Yun family so rich?
After a while, the housekeeper's father-in-law asked someone to bring a plate of pastries.
Wen Qingzhu looked at the father-in-law in charge with a smile: "I like this persimmon cake very much." β
Green Tao comprehended, took out a piece of gold bill, and handed it to the steward's father-in-law.
This scene fell in Yun Xian's eyes, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but hook.
The housekeeper's father-in-law knew some inside stories and felt that he couldn't stay longer, so he excused himself and left.
Waiting until there was no one else around, Yun Xian smiled and said, "I heard that the third lady's dowry is in the hands of Sister Qingzhu?" β
"Well, it's not well managed." Wen Qingzhu smiled shyly.
Yun Xian naturally knew that since Wen Qingzhu took over the Lu family's dowry, the harvest of the shops and Zhuangzi outside had become worse and worse.
Zhuangzi barely managed to keep one.
But I heard that the shops were all sold, and Wan Ren Tang, which was so profitable back then, disappeared within a year.
Yun Xian smiled bitterly on her face: "It's better to be Qingzhu's sister, the third lady only has one daughter, you don't want me, my sister is dead, and my mother still wants her share to be left to my sister." β
"This is natural, after all, Miss Yun is also Madame's heart." Wen Qingzhu's mind turned, this Yunxian would not think that she would not know how to manage money.
Yun Xian turned her head and looked at the back: "I saw my sister so generous just now, I must have a lot of silver in my hand." β
Wen Qingzhu sneered in her heart, this Yun Xian really had the idea of beating her silver?
When Yun Xian looked over, Wen Qingzhu deliberately covered her mouth: "Just now I saw that Sister Xian rewarded that father-in-law so much, thinking that this is the rule of the palace, what can I do?" This has already cost me half of my silver, which was originally intended to be reserved for the people around the noble concubine! β
Yun Xian was stunned, and then said slowly: "This is not the rule of the palace, it's just that this steward's father-in-law helped me a lot before, so I rewarded so much." β
"So that's the case, that sister Xian helped me go and ask for half of it?" Wen Qingzhu deliberately buried her.
Yun Xian's face was even more ugly, and she was stunned for a long time before she said, "It's better for my sister to send someone over by herself." β
Fortunately, the sound of horses' hooves in the distance interrupted the conversation between the two.
However, when Wen Qingzhu turned his gaze, Yun Xian's eyes flashed.
After a while, several tall horses came to him from far and near.
In addition to the crown prince, King Ning, the fifth prince, and Fu Lie, there is also Zheng Xu.
King Ning was the first to dismount, and after throwing the prey on horseback to the attendant, he showed a cruel smile: "Miss Wen Qi is also here!" β
He glanced at Jiang Yuancheng thoughtfully.
Wen Qingzhu saw that Yun Xian was about to stand up and speak, Wen Qingzhu spoke first: "Gongzi Zheng, I'm here to find you." β
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes stopped on Zheng Xu.
He looked a little depressed, and when he heard Wen Qingzhu's words, he immediately turned over and dismounted, and walked over.
"Miss Wen Qi, it just so happens that I have something to do with you."
Wen Qingzhu got up and said goodbye to the prince and the others one by one.
In the end, she and Fu Lie exchanged eyes for a moment, and after knowing each other, they followed Zheng Xu away.
Yun Xian had already reached the point of her throat, so she swallowed it back.
Of course, Jiang Yuancheng knew why Wen Qingzhu came back.
He dismounted with an unchanged expression, and after handing over the prey to the attendant, he glanced at the father-in-law in charge behind Yun Xian.
"Cousin, I have something to look for you too."
Yun Xian gritted her teeth, feeling very unwilling, why did Zheng Xu cooperate with Wen Qingzhu so much!
Waiting for the two girls to take one away, King Ning was excited, turned his head and suddenly looked at Fu Lie: "This king still thinks that Miss Wen is here to find Master Fu!" β
"His Royal Highness King Ning laughed." Fu Lie gave up.
Without saying much, Fu Lie walked to the prince's side, whispered a few words, and then said goodbye to King Ning and left here with the prince's milk.
"Congratulations to the prince!" King Ning bowed his hand, his eyes narrowed into a slit and looked at the prince's back.
When the prince walked away, King Ning straightened up and shouted, "Someone!" β
The father-in-law who was standing at the door hurriedly ran down, bowed down and flattered, "What do His Royal Highness King Ning command?" β
King Ning looked behind him, and a guard dragged a sack up.
When the sack was opened, half of the python's corpse was revealed.
The father-in-law of the steward turned pale with fright and retreated again and again.
King Ning's smile became more and more hideous: "Wait a minute, you put this into the prey we hit, you know!" "Good net
"Yes, yes, yes!" The steward's father-in-law bowed his head in horror.
This royal paddock has not seen such a large python in many years.
The last time such a big python appeared, it was before the palace change a few decades ago.
After the appearance of the python, Qin Tianjian predicted: troubled times are coming.
Later, Emperor Jiang Yue of Shunde ascended the throne and replaced the Qin Tianjian as soon as possible.
Legend has it that these Qin Tian eunuchs told them to return to their hometowns, but everyone knows that the lives of this group of people are exhausted.
Not far away in the dense forest.
Wen Qingzhu and Zheng Xu walked side by side, and the maid guards behind them were far behind.
"Lord Zheng, what happened to the Prince's Mansion?"
When Zheng Xu heard this, his face turned pale suddenly, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.
Seeing him like this, Wen Qingzhu sighed: "Yesterday's crown princess was also soulless, and she didn't even dare to see me alone, if it's a child's business, don't worry, the princess is in good health, sooner or later-"
"It's not the case!" Zheng Xu's suppressed voice seemed to come from the ground.
He stopped, and Wen Qingzhu also stopped, looking at him quietly.
Zheng Xu's eyes were obviously flustered, and finally he shrugged his shoulders and sighed: "The previous incident between me and the crown princess was discovered by Concubine Wu. β
"What does it matter?" Wen Qingzhu was very puzzled, according to He Wenru's character, he would never do anything to be sorry for Jiang Yuansheng.
"But the prince's temperament ......" Zheng Xu raised his head suddenly, his eyes staring straight at Wen Qingzhu, "If he knew, I wouldn't be able to help them, just relying on the prince's own strength, I wouldn't be able to keep it at all-"
Zheng Xu didn't dare to say the next words, and Wen Qingzhu also understood.
Jiang Yuansheng has a ruthless father and a calm and calm mother, but his own qualifications are very mediocre.
It stands to reason that this is an era of peace, as long as Jiang Yue paves the way for Jiang Yuansheng wholeheartedly, he has no problem ascending to the throne.
In Wen Qingzhu's memory, Jiang Yue actually had great hopes for Jiang Yuansheng.
Although he was strict with Jiang Yuansheng in normal times, it seemed that King Ning and the crown prince were only wavering.
But in fact, Jiang Yue has always been very firm in his hope that Jiang Yuansheng can inherit the unification.
In the previous life, the prince's mansion was infiltrated, and the prince and the princess were separated.
Later, Jiang Yuansheng became more and more afraid, listened to the words of the gluttonous minister, and pushed the Zheng family away.
In the end, under the joint efforts of King Ning and King Chu, Jiang Yue was completely disappointed in him.
In the end, King Jing died, killing Jiang Yue's last hope, and Jiang Yuansheng was finally deprived of the crown prince.
This time, Wen Qingzhu had already solved the matter of the witch Gu in advance.
Why is there still a problem in the prince's mansion.
"You tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince directly, there should be no problem, although the Crown Prince ...... General, but he is still clear about right and wrong. Wen Qingzhu felt that Zheng Xu was making a big fuss.
But Zheng Xu shook his head: "You don't know, the crown princess and I were designed, when the crown princess was pushed by the maid and almost fell into the water, I pulled the princess back in a hurry, it just happenedββ"
"Where's the maid?" Wen Qingzhu immediately sensed that something was wrong.
Zheng Xu muttered: "When the prince came in, I was a thief, did I patronize and explain, and by the time we found that maid, she had already committed suicide by throwing herself into a well." β
Wen Qingzhu frowned, how could things turn out like this?
Once the current prince is weak, Jiang Yuancheng will definitely take advantage of it.
Once Jiang Yuancheng fell into Jiang Yue's eyes, it would be much more difficult to deal with Jiang Yuancheng at that time.
"I'll go see the crown princess." Wen Qingzhu turned around to leave.
Zheng Xu hurriedly grabbed her: "Wait! Wait a minute! β
Wen Qingzhu was anxious, why was the matter of the Prince's Mansion so troublesome.
But Zheng Xu was reluctant to let her go, and when she was about to make a move, Xiao Man saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop Zheng Xu.
Seeing that a subordinate dared to make a move, Zheng Xu was also angry in his heart, and suddenly yelled: "Let go of me!" β
"Don't chase Miss!" Xiaoman firmly did not let go, and looked at Zheng Xu fixedly.
Wen Qingzhu originally wanted to dissuade him, but when he thought that Zheng Xu was in the game, he couldn't see the whole picture of the matter.
She commanded: "Xiaoman, you stop Zheng Gongzi, there is something wrong with me!" β
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Man immediately moved to capture Zheng Xu.
No one dared to be so presumptuous for a long time, Zheng Xu immediately sank his face and began to fight with Xiaoman.
Suddenly, a feather arrow flew into the air, Wen Qingzhu was startled, and dodged sideways.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that Xiaoman and Zheng Xu were still fighting, and immediately shouted: "Be careful!" β
Seeing this, Xiaoman immediately stopped his hand and pulled Zheng Xu instead.
But Zheng Xu was so angry that he didn't do it at all.
With a palm, it hit Xiaoman's left shoulder.
Xiao Man's throat was sweet, and he didn't have time to dodge completely, and his right shoulder was scratched by a feather arrow.
With a plop, Xiaoman fell to the ground.
Wen Qingzhu was suddenly shocked: "Xiaoman! β
She hurriedly ran to Xiaoman, helped her up, pressed Xiaoman's pulse, and looked gloomy.
At this moment, Wen Qingzhu did not hesitate and took out a golden pill from his sleeve.
Zheng Xu was originally remorseful, but when he saw the golden pill, his eyes suddenly widened: "This-"
"Shut up!" Wen Qingzhu glanced at him coldly and asked Xiao Man to swallow the golden pill.
