(008) It was an accident
At this moment, Jiang Qingchen saw Yun Xiangrong for the second time after Yun Xiangrong entered Beijing, from the family gathering a few days ago to now, Jiang Qingchen has not been home, first, he is too busy. The second is that the name change has not been completed.
Jiang Qingchen and Qing Anbo had already greeted each other, explaining that it was his cousin who was not accustomed to the water and soil, and it was inconvenient to enter the palace.
People are very willing to let their granddaughter participate in the queen's banquet, this is the queen's banquet, who will refuse? It's really not for the sake of being a princess or anything like that, I have a correct understanding of my granddaughter in my heart.
It's just that in the future, when talking about marriage, it can be said that I have also accepted the invitation to the queen's banquet.
It sounds quite high, and it seems to be a virtuous and virtuous girl.
It's just that Jiang Qingchen hasn't found a chance to talk about this matter with the prince and the queen yet, and he thinks that when he is done today, he will enter the palace and talk to the prince about changing to Qing'anbo's granddaughter.
Yun Xiangrong's complexion looks very good today, after all, he has rested in the Hou Mansion for three days, and the fatigue of the carriage has basically disappeared. It's deliberately dressed up again, although the makeup is very light, not grand enough in the sense of the capital, but it's really beautiful.
Jiang Qingchen said in his heart that Zhu Ziguo's affairs must be done today, and there is no need to ask for merit and rewards, as long as the crown prince and the empress do not refuse their request for a replacement. The thought that Yun Xiangrong might become the crown prince's concubine was very uncomfortable.
Jiang Qingchen suddenly saw the trace of the spy again at this moment, and hurriedly chased after him.
Jiang Xinxin and Yun Xiangrong didn't know that Jiang Qingchen was nearby, but unlike usual, they didn't bring a maid, only four guards from the family, got into the carriage and went straight to the princess's mansion.
Jiang Xinxin knew that it didn't matter if the two of them went out without escorts, there was a logo of Jiang Mansion on this carriage, and no one dared to cause trouble, because his eldest brother was the commander of the nine gates of the capital. Enough to be a deterrent.
On the way, the two talked and laughed, Jiang Xinxin also opened the curtain of the carriage, and Yun Xiangrong introduced the capital, the Beijing pastries made by that family are delicious, the clothes of that house are good-looking, and the music of that theater is good, Jiang Xinxin knows it.
Hearing this, Yun Xiangrong was very envious, Jiang Xinxin could only tell the truth, there are many rules at home, and he can't go out casually, after he made a marriage, his future husband Ye Haiqing took him everywhere to play.
Yun Xiangrong suddenly felt that this name was so familiar, and thought about it for a while.
So he smiled and said, "Xinxin, didn't you fight with him for me before?" Why do you want to marry someone else, you are going to rebel. ”
Jiang Xinxin hurriedly explained nervously: "Rong Rong, this is all a misunderstanding, really, in fact, his younger brother Ye Haihua has no intention of bullying you." ”
Yun Xiangrong suddenly laughed.
Jiang Xinxin immediately understood, and said: "Stinky Rongrong, I'm generous, I don't care about you, when Brother Haiqing returns to Beijing, I'll ask him to take us out to play, are you willing?" ”
Yun Xiangrong nodded happily, they are all little girls, at a fun-loving age, who wants to be kept at home all the time.
Yun Xiangrong and Jiang Xinxin arrived at the princess's mansion while talking and laughing, and the two got off the carriage at the door.
The coachman went to park the carriage, and the guards rested in the concierge, which was the rule of the princess's house, and no one from the guest family was allowed to enter the house unless there was a special summons. This is also the main reason why neither of them brought a maid, they can't use it.
The maid of the princess's mansion took Yun Xiangrong and Jiang Xinxin to see the princess, it seems that although there is still some time before the banquet begins, the guests have basically arrived, after all, no one will be late to participate in the princess's banquet, that would be too rude.
Jiang Xinxin is not the first time to come to the Princess's Mansion, and she is no stranger to the Princess's Mansion. I didn't feel anything wrong when I walked in all the way.
But when the three of them reached the central hall of the princess's mansion, they heard a eunuch shouting in a male voice: "There are assassins." In an instant, I felt that the entire princess's mansion was in a commotion, and I could even hear the woman's screams clearly.
Jiang Xinxin looked fine, Yun Xiangrong was a little flustered, after all, he had never had this kind of experience.
This is really unexpected, after all, this is the princess's mansion, the princess and the concubine are not involved in the government at all, how can anyone make a move in the princess's mansion, is it because there is a deep hatred with the royal family?
The maid of the princess's mansion was still calm, and immediately said, "Two young ladies, I'll take you to the gatehouse to find a guard." ”
None of them saw the Assassin because they only heard shouting, and they didn't realize how dangerous the situation was.
As soon as they turned around, they heard someone in the porter shouting, "There are assassins." ”
At this moment, Jiang Xinxin did not hesitate at all, took out the distress fireworks from his cuffs, and released them in an instant.
This distress fireworks was given to her by Jiang Qingchen a few years ago after she became the Admiral of the Nine Gates. Jiang Qingchen promised that as long as it was in the capital, Jiang Xinxin would encounter any danger and release fireworks, and someone would come when he had a cup of tea.
Although Jiang Xinxin and Jiang Qingchen are half-brothers and sisters, Yun Xue married the Hou Mansion because Jiang Qingchen was still very young at that time, Yun Xue treated her sincerely, and the mother-son relationship between the two had a good foundation.
Later, Jiang Qingchen grew up slowly, knowing that this was not his own mother, and there was no rebellion. Because he knew very well that his mother's illness and death had nothing to do with his stepmother. The stepmother is very good to herself.
Since Jiang Yannian married the eldest lady of the Huguo Mansion before, this is the Jiang family's Gao Pan, so there is no aunt, and it is even more impossible for Yun Xue to have an aunt after entering the door, of course, it is also the heart of the Hou Ye who is not in beauty, and is playing in the mountains and rivers.
Relatively speaking, the Changping Marquis Mansion is very peaceful, there is no aunt's instigation for favor, and several children are well taught and grow up healthily.
Because of Jiang Qingchen's personality, even when he was a child, he would not be able to get along with his brother like Yun Xiangrong, but his heart to protect his sister is the same as Yun Weijie. If someone bullied Jiang Xinxin, the first to stand up would definitely be Jiang Qingchen.
This is what the Jiang family has in their bones, in any case, if there is an external invasion, it must be unanimous to the outside world, Jiang Xinxin is convinced that someone will come to the rescue soon, although I don't know who the person who will come, but it must be the eldest brother's person.
At this moment, Jiang Qingchen is not far from the princess's mansion, someone attacked the princess's mansion, although he was unexpected, but he was also prepared, but how could his sister be in the princess's mansion, he didn't understand. The guests at the banquet in the princess's mansion are all women who have not decided to marry.
Jiang Xinxin is a person who is about to get married, what kind of excitement is this.
Immediately, I understood that this was not the banquet that Jiang Xinxin was going to, this was the banquet that accompanied Yun Xiangrong. Xin said that his mother was really powerful, and he just let himself push off the queen's blind date meeting, and immediately asked Yun Xiangrong to participate in the princess's blind date meeting.
How much I hope that Yun Xiangrong will marry in the capital, if this is really the case, there is no need to work so hard, just marry Yun Xiangrong back, this must be the daughter-in-law that my mother is most satisfied with, at this moment, Jiang Qingchen was stunned by his instantaneous thoughts.
Jiang Qingchen was rarely at home, and of course he wouldn't know about Yun Xue's previous arrangements. I won't know the change of mind after Yun Xue, this banquet has to come.
However, even if Jiang Qingchen is at home, he may not necessarily know that this is all arranged by the woman in the backyard after all, how could he talk to him.
The person who came to attack this time was Zhu Ziguo's killer, and since they had just entered Xiliang Capital, they had been closely monitored by Jiang Qingchen, which is why Jiang Qingchen has been so busy recently.
According to the previous practice, Jiang Qingchen would arrange people to secretly dispose of the killers who lurked in, leaving no traces, so that Zhu Ziguo's people hated him and hated him.
This time, Jiang Qingchen also wanted to do the same, but was opposed by the prince.
The reason for refusal is that for so many years, Jiang Qingchen has paid a lot for the defense of the capital, but because no major event has happened, the emperor can't feel Jiang Qingchen's importance.
There are even many people who think that the Admiral of Jiumen is a fat shortage, and they can't wait for Jiang Qingchen to have some accident and replace him.
Since everyone is looking forward to it, then something really happens, what the prince means is to let Jiang Qingchen grasp the rhythm and do some small things, but to control the overall situation, so that he can sell well in front of the emperor, and the greedy people also understand how difficult this job is.
In fact, in the end, the reason why Jiang Qingchen accepted the prince's opinion was really not to facilitate the invitation, but to find that the killer lurking in was very different from the past.
The first is the way of invasion, not the previous disguise, but the caravan dressed as Zhu Ziguo, and the big lama directly entered the capital, is this because he thinks that the Admiral of the Nine Gates is just an ornament, and he has no vigilance at all?
In fact, they deliberately found someone to contact, and many of the killers couldn't even speak the official language of Xiliangguo, didn't they know that it was very conspicuous? How can you do business if you don't know how to do business.
Also, even if Zhu Ziguo's killer came in, he would definitely contact his accomplices who had infiltrated Xiliang before, so Jiang Qingchen scattered all his masters and monitored the contact points that he had mastered before, but the result was that none of the contact points were contacted.
In the end, due to the lack of manpower, Jiang Qingchen personally went out to follow a spy, but he saw that he had entered a rich and noble house for a long time, and then he didn't come out again, if it weren't for the news killer here that was in place, Jiang Qingchen had to come back, and he would definitely have to follow. Now it's just a matter of finding someone to keep an eye on there.
Objectively speaking, if it weren't for the fact that the appearance, temperament and martial arts of these people were the same as Zhu Ziguo's spies before, Jiang Qingchen would have already begun to wonder if this was a killer sent by Zhu Ziguo.
What's even more incomprehensible is that he really did something to the princess's mansion, if Jiang Qingchen hadn't seen it with his own eyes, no one would have believed it if anyone told him, a princess and a concubine without any real power, even if there were a bunch of official ladies today, was it worth starting?
It is not easy to train a killer, an operation is at least half lost, even if the operation is successful, killing all the people, it is just a bunch of female dependents, and the most that will cause panic is all over the court. There is also the dismissal of himself.
Objectively speaking, Jiang Qingchen didn't think that his face was so big and he sacrificed so much just to let himself be dismissed. In that case, it is better to attack the mansion of the real power faction in the DPRK and China, the harm is much greater than this, and he will be dismissed from his post as well.
