Chapter 261 Marriage Request
Jin Roujia's eyes lit up, and she said with a smile: "It's better to meet by chance, Uncle Nine Emperor invites us to tea!" Of course, it is not only tea that is invited, but also all kinds of refreshments from Qingfeng Teahouse.
"Osmanthus cake, kidney bean cake, taro cake, peach slice cake, dragon whisker cake, and by the way, golden silk hibiscus cake, these pastries all come with a plate. Jin Roujia ordered generously.
Xiao Er saw that he was so arrogant, and nodded his head in response: "Yes, you wait, you will come immediately." ”
"Wait. Jin Xiuchen stopped Xiao Er, who was leaving, and ordered, "Another mung bean cake." "This is what Mo'er loves to eat.
Peng Mo pursed his lips and smiled when he heard this, he really knew everything!
When the refreshments were served, Jin Roujia's eyes felt that they were not enough, sniffed the sweet smell in the air, and said with a smile: "You're welcome." ”
Jin Xiuchen saw that Jin Roujia was eating happily alone, so he pushed the mung bean cake in his hand to Peng Mo's hand, but looked at Jin Roujia on his face, and asked with a smile: "Do your father and queen mother know about your departure from the palace?"
As soon as these words came out, Jin Roujia didn't swallow a mouthful, almost choked, hurriedly poured a sip of tea, and shouted dissatisfiedly: "Nine Emperor Uncle." ”
"What?" Jin Xiuchen raised his eyebrows.
Jin Roujia instantly accepted her dissatisfaction, squinted her eyes flatteringly and smiled: "Today, I see that the Nine Emperor Uncles are really more and more graceful, chic and dignified... ”
Jin Xiuchen took a sip of tea and interrupted lightly: "Speak well." ”
Jin Roujia clasped her hands together, flashed her apricot eyes, and said pitifully: "Can the Nine Emperor Uncle keep it secret for me?"
Peng Mo swallowed the mung bean cake in her mouth, the refreshing sweetness of her tongue made her feel happy, and she couldn't help laughing when she watched the two of them fight.
Jin Xiuchen looked sideways when he heard the sound, and saw Peng Mo's eyebrows and eyes crooked, her crystal bright eyes were full of smiles, the breeze blew in from the window, stirring the broken hair on her sideburns, the soft and soft appearance seemed to be lightly slashed across the tip of her heart, and the crispy and numb touch flowed through her limbs.
At this moment, he clearly heard the beating of his heart, beating for her.
It's funny to think about it, after so long, he still has such a heart for her.
Jin Xiuchen coughed lightly and said, "Don't take it as an example!"
"I knew that Nine Emperor Uncles were the best. Jin Roujia exhaled.
"Why haven't you seen Peng Hao recently?"
Speaking of Peng Hao, Jin Roujia's cheeks were crimson, she hung her head silently, and went to taste the snacks.
Peng Mo looked at Jin Roujia's little daughter's delicate appearance, pursed her lips and smiled, and replied, "The third brother was ordered to go to Jingzhao Yamen to assist in the investigation of the case on the mountain on the outskirts of Beijing. ”
Jin Xiuchen nodded, and asked again, "What's the case?" looked at Peng Mo boldly as he spoke.
Peng Mo blushed at him, glanced at him, and said in a low voice: "I heard that the third brother said that he has been locked up and is being arrested." ”
Jin Xiuchen nodded thoughtfully, remembered the events at the palace banquet, sighed lowly, and said, "There have been a lot of things going on in Kyoto these days. ”
Peng Mo listened to this sigh and felt bad in her heart, she stirred up the storm in this capital for revenge, and most of the people who calculated were royal people, Jin Xiuchen was out of the royal family, even if there was an estrangement, in the end, it was a blood relative, and she was too selfish to let him meddle in all this.
Jin Roujia felt deeply agreed, nodded and said: "It's not, the second brother actually poisoned the fifth brother at the palace banquet, and the third brother's backyard is not very peaceful, one thing after another, and there is a murderer next to the uncle, it's really scary." ”
Lian Feng looked at Zhao Qingying who was kneeling in the courtyard, wondering why she seemed to have turned into a stone statue, she didn't know how to get up, and stepped forward and said, "Everyone has been gone for a long time, Aunt Zhao get up." ”
Zhao Qingying came back to her senses when she heard the voice, stroked her skirt and got up, kneeling on the ground for a long time, her legs were a little numb, and she could only take a step after a while.
After walking for a long time, she looked back at Mohe Garden, her eyes narrowed, her hands clenched tightly, and she gritted her teeth and said hatefully: "Peng Mo, you dare to humiliate me like this today, one day, I will let you return it a hundred times and a thousand times!"
"Aunt Zhao?"
A shout was like thunder, Zhao Qingying suddenly turned around and saw the ingenuity behind her, and her heart sank, I don't know if she heard what she said just now? "The well-behaved look is the same as the two people just judged.
"Why is Aunt Zhao here?" said skillfully and looked at the direction that Zhao Qingying was looking at just now, which was the direction of Mohe Garden.
"I've got nothing to do to look at the flowers, where is Sister Qiaosi going?" Zhao Qingying changed the topic in a timely manner.
"I heard that Princess Roujia is coming, and Madame sent slaves and maidservants to come and have a look. ”
Zhao Qingying smiled softly when she heard this, and said, "Sister Qiaosi doesn't have to go, I just saw Mo'er and Princess Roujia go out from afar." ”
"That's right. Ingenuity glanced at Zhao Qingying, and saw that there was dust at the knees of her dress, thinking that she had bowed, so she didn't see it from a distance, but met her.
"If Sister Qiaosi has nothing else to do, I'll go back first. Zhao Qingying didn't want to be more polite with her.
Qiaosi chuckled and said: "I'll send Aunt Zhao, after all, Mu Zeyuan is remote, if Aunt Zhao gets lost, it won't be good to go to the wrong yard." ”
Zhao Qingying snorted coldly in her heart, but her face was not obvious, and she smiled: "So... It's bothering Sister Qiaosi. ”
Although Mu Zeyuan is remote, all the items in the room are not bad, I don't know how many times more comfortable than Qi Mansion, but Peng's looking at her like a thief every day is really unpleasant!
Hmph, she also knew what Peng's meant, but she was afraid that she would seduce those two cousins!
It's just that this time her purpose is really not for this, what she wants is to destroy the entire General's Mansion!
Chengqian Palace
After chatting with the queen for a while, Siyan pursed her lips and asked with a smile: "Queen Mother, I heard that His Royal Highness the King of Jin of your country has not married a concubine yet, has he?"
The queen's heart jumped when she heard this, what did she do when a woman who had not yet left the cabinet inquired about the man's affairs?
"What does Lord Siyan mean by this?"
Siyan raised her head slightly, looked at the queen, and said with a smile: "The queen's guess is good, I love His Royal Highness King Jin." ”
The queen was stunned for a while, and couldn't answer for a while: "This...!"
Diligent Palace
The emperor looked at the three folds handed over by the criminal department on the case, his eyebrows were frowning, his eyes were deep, and the father-in-law Su on the side looked at it, took the teacup in the hand of the little eunuch, and stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, you have read the folds for most of the day, take a break and drink tea." ”
The emperor sighed, took the teacup in his hand but didn't drink it, and asked in a low voice for a moment: "In your opinion, how should this matter be handled!"
Where did Gonggong Su dare to talk about the life and death of the prince, and hurriedly knelt down to confess: "The emperor forgives the sin, but the slave doesn't know." ”
The emperor closed his eyes, sighed deeply, and muttered, "Stupid, stupid." "After doing such a stupid thing, now that the evidence is conclusive, if he doesn't deal with it again, I'm afraid that he will provoke criticism from the court.
After a moment of silence, the emperor opened his eyes and asked, "How is King Zhe?
Is Qiu Hunt going to take King Zhe with him? Gonggong Su was surprised but didn't dare to show it, and bowed his head and replied respectfully: "If you go back to the emperor, His Royal Highness King Zhe has recovered very well, and the imperial doctor said that he will be cured in two days." ”
The emperor nodded and said, "Let someone pass a word and let him prepare!"
"Yes. Father-in-law Su should bear it, thinking to himself, they all say that if you don't die in a catastrophe, there will be a blessing, isn't Jin Zhe blessed?
A little eunuch walked in, knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, the queen mother and the county lord Siyan ask to see you." ”
"Why did they ask to see each other?" the emperor was puzzled, but he couldn't see the person when he came, so he said, "Please come in!"
The two walked into the hall, each saluted, the emperor gave a seat, and said politely: "Is the county lord still used to living in Dayong?"
Siyan smiled when she heard this: "Thank you for the emperor's inquiry, the wind here is beautiful, the food is delicious, and it is not difficult to adapt." ”
"That's fine. The emperor nodded, and said: "In a few days of autumn hunting, the county lord can go with him to enjoy the majestic scenery of Dayong Mountain." ”
"Autumn hunting, can His Royal Highness the King of Jin go with you?" Siyan was overjoyed, and her eyes were blinking, like a little girl who didn't know anything about the world.
The emperor was a little stunned, when had Siyan seen Jin Rui? How could she ask him? Could it be that today is asking to see Jin Rui?
The queen came into contact with the emperor's sight and said with a smile: "Today, the lord of Siyan came to the palace of the concubines, saying that he admired His Royal Highness the King of Jin and asked the concubines to marry. Saying that, he smiled again and said: "Where is the prince's marriage where the concubine can be the master, the concubine brought her to the emperor." ”
The emperor almost thought that he had heard it wrong! This man had seen many people with a decree for marriage, but this was the first time the emperor had seen this woman asking for a marriage.
What is Siyan planning, a dignified county lord of Wucheng State, is actually planning to marry Dayong?
The emperor really couldn't believe it, and asked uncertainly: "Lord Siyan, what the queen said is true?"
What the queen said was true, and asked the emperor to marry Siyan. After Siyan said this, she was so ashamed that she couldn't raise her head, but her voice was still clear and firm.
The emperor squinted, with a sharp light in his eyes, and said suspiciously: "As far as I know, you have never met King Jin, how can you have a heart of admiration for a stranger?"
Siyan smiled softly and said: "The emperor doesn't know, that day at the palace banquet, I saw that all the princes were there, but His Royal Highness King Jin was not there, driven by curiosity, Siyan went to send someone to inquire about one or two, and the people under him were very reliable, and they brought back a portrait when they brought back the news. ”
The emperor looked at Siyan's shyness and smiled: "The words are true. ”
Siyan said obediently: "Don't dare to hide it from the emperor, this is before Siyan leaves the country, ask the king for his will, and ask the emperor to take a look." ”
Gonggong Su hurriedly took it and handed it to the emperor, who opened it and read it, and it was written that Siyan was authorized to choose her husband freely.
The emperor agreed and said, "I understand your intentions, but the marriage is a major matter, this matter still needs to be discussed in the long run, you should go back to the post house and wait for the news." ”
"Yes, Siyan retired. ”
