Chapter 342: Trust Returned

"I'm worried about this! The five princes repented in the mansion, and they also made meritorious contributions, which can be regarded as sharing worries for me, Li Zhong, you put your crimes on the court one by one! ”

Li Zhong said what he said to the Seventh Prince that day, and explained it to the court as it was, and the courtiers reacted greatly, and it was another heated discussion, and the emperor stopped the heated discussion, and ordered the squire Li Zhongqiu to be beheaded.

When Li Zhong heard such a verdict, the whole person was frightened and collapsed to the ground, but there was no Zhulian family, which was a blessing in misfortune, Li Zhong silently accepted such a verdict, so he was dragged into the edict by the guards to be beheaded after the autumn.

After Li Zhong was dragged away, the Seventh Prince was still above the imperial court.

The emperor spoke, "Thanks to the investigation of the Seven Princes, this matter can be regarded as a meritorious service, and I have not failed my painstaking efforts, so I will order you to serve as the deputy envoy of the Ordnance Institute!" Follow the Five Princes to learn more experience! ”

The Seventh Prince hurriedly agreed, this was the result expected by the Seventh Prince, although there was no official reinstatement, so that his father had confidence in himself again, and he would not completely lose power.

Although he is the deputy envoy who follows the five princes, he also has a chance to turn over, which is better than the four princes who have not done anything now.

The matter of the Seven Princes soon spread in the capital, and the Prince's Mansion, the Qi Mansion, and the Four Princes' Mansion all heard about it quickly, and they all talked about it.

In the Qi Mansion, Qi Xuan and Sheng Qingan were discussing this matter.

"At the beginning, we didn't look at the wrong person, the Seven Princes can bend and stretch, and they can turn danger into victory in disadvantages, and the means are clever, once the Seven Princes succeed in ascending the throne, we will have a guarantee for the future!" Sheng Qing'an smiled flatteringly.

"Now I am not afraid of being caught by someone and being manipulated by someone when I say this kind of thing, I won't save you when the time comes!" Qi Xuan said fiercely.

After speaking, Qi Xuan was also thinking about it, he stood in line with the Seven Princes at the beginning, but he offended the Four Princes, and he didn't know how the battle of the several princes was, and he didn't know whether the original choice was right or wrong, if it was the Four Princes in the future...... The good days of Qi Mansion are coming to an end.

Thinking of Sheng Qing'an saying such things so presumptuously, and thinking of her flattering expression, Qi Xuan hated her more and more.

In the courtyard, the old lady and the nurse were playing with Qi Le, the old lady was enjoying the joy of family, and had long forgotten Sheng Qing'an's arrogant appearance, but Qi Xuan was even more disgusted with her pampered and arrogant appearance, and every time she saw Sheng Qing'an, she showed a look of disgust.

It's just that if you can see less, try to see her as little as possible, Qi Xuan and his wife also dislike each other to the end, and they can quarrel about everything. The old lady's attitude towards Sheng Qingan is also with the birth of the child, and she is also affectionate and polite on the surface.

Qi Xuan went out and ordered the carriage to drive towards the Seven Princes' Mansion. He wanted to explore the current situation of the Seven Princes and see how long the good days of the Qi Mansion would last.

When he arrived at the Seven Princes' Mansion, the Seven Princes also warmly received Qi Xuan and ordered someone to accept some gifts from Qi Xuan.

"Seventh Prince, I heard your news not long ago, and I was still worried about you! Seeing that the Seventh Prince has recently returned and the official has been reinstated, it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise! ”

"The little marquis came to visit, and he also cared about my seventh prince, I must not let the fourth prince be proud for too long, and I can't let the Qi Mansion down!"

Qi Xuan listened to the words of the Seventh Prince, and gradually relieved, seeing that he had not lost his fighting spirit, Qi Xuan could be regarded as having received an answer, so he greeted politely for a while and left.

After Qi Xuan left, he returned to the house, and the Seventh Prince also thought that Qi Xuan was here to find out his own reality, and he also saw it, and the Qi Mansion should continue to support his side.

I don't know if the four princes have any small movements, the seven princes sent people to observe whether there has been any movement in the four princes' mansions recently, and the people who came back to return said that the four princes' mansions seem to have been silent recently, and there is no sound at all, which is according to common sense, the four princes will definitely make a difference when they see the actions of the seven princes, which makes the seven princes feel a little strange.

Driven by the curiosity of the Seven Princes, they asked people to inquire about the actions of the prince's mansion.

The spies came to report, and there was no movement in the Shizi's Mansion, but the five princes often walked around in the Shizi's Mansion, and there was nothing else different.

The Seven Princes inquired to no avail, and also broke off this thought.

There was indeed no movement in the prince's mansion. Xiao Jue and Sheng Zi'an are ordinary days every day, there are no big moves, and naturally they don't attract big attention.

One day, Xiao Jue and Sheng Zi'an chatted in front of the dresser, talking about the Seven Princes, Xiao Jue laughed, "The Seven Princes have opened their minds and know how to use their strength to win back those official positions, but he can't make any big achievements under the Five Princes, even if he has achievements, in the eyes of outsiders, he is also the Five Princes!" ”

"The prince of the world is eating people to death, and I don't know if these seven princes will take advantage of the victory to pursue and make further moves! If the Seven Princes are really enlightened, then they have to ask for merit again and again and ask the emperor for more officials! ”

Xiao was desperate for the little lady of his family, and then said, "No matter what the Seventh Prince does, the ability of the Five Princes is enough, and the Five Princes are also enough to win the hearts of the people, what else is Madam worried about!" Worry about your husband! After speaking, Xiao Jue frowned and slowly closed his eyes.

Sheng Zi'an said nervously, "The prince has a head disease, let me pinch it for the prince!" After speaking, Sheng Zi'an slowly pushed Xiao Jue to the seat, stretched his hand out of his sleeve, and pinched the meridian acupoint for the prince, pinched it for a while, gradually improved, and slowly opened his eyes again.

Xiao Jue's eyes were full of love, he looked at Sheng Zi'an and smiled, his head didn't hurt anymore, and he pulled a bun for Sheng Zi'an, which was very good-looking. The two of them went out of the room together and went to the hall to eat.

The house was quiet, it seemed that no one was there, and finally a family member came, Sheng Zi'an asked, "Qixi, where have all the people in the house gone?" ”

The family quickly said: "Back to the princess, yesterday the housekeeper arranged for the flower shop to send flowers to the prince today, and prepared to replace all the bonsai in the prince's mansion, which is for the princess to watch!" After saying that, the family retired and continued to send people to the flower shop to move potted plants.

"Lots of words!" After listening to this, Xiao Jue said, remembering that Sheng Zi'an said that there was some depression in the house the day before yesterday, so he asked the housekeeper to change some seasonal flowers, so that his wife could look at it comfortably.

Sheng Zi'an heard it and understood that it was Shizi's arrangement, so he smiled sweetly at Shizi, "Thank you, husband!" ”

The two began to eat, Sheng Zi'an first took a bite of food for the prince, and the prince nodded with satisfaction.

"The little lady is really a husband and can always please her husband!" Xiao Jue smiled.

Sheng Zi'an smiled lightly, "The prince is really tormented by Zi'an!" ”

The two of them slowly finished their breakfast, and at this time, most of the bonsai in the courtyard had been placed, and the courtyard had changed its scene, and the depressed and scattered scene in the previous house was completely gone, Sheng Zi'an's eyes were overflowing with happiness.

The flowers in this garden, in such a cold season, bloom very gorgeously, Sheng Zi'an knows that this is the warmth that Xiao Jue gave to himself, and he hopes that he can also have a warm mood in the cold winter, Sheng Zi'an heart, now, is indeed very warm.

And Xiao Jue has already begun to work in the study, and he doesn't know that his little lady is grateful and loving to herself, and she is immersed in tedious official business, looking for a way to deal with it.

Outside the window, there is a cold wind blowing, but those flowers that bloom in winter are fighting against the cold wind, hoping to resist the cold wind, and finally bloom proudly under the warm winter sun, giving people in winter some hope.

The four princes were under house arrest for a few days, and the seven princes also used silver taels to avoid the pain of a month's edict, and they were only under house arrest.

In the Shizi Mansion, time is like a slowly flowing stream, and the peaceful life is the daily state of the Shizi couple, watching a garden from time to time, and playing from time to time, there is a unique taste in the world of the two.

In the house, the flowers and plants have decayed, and winter is coming.

I heard that the glazed lake in the west of the capital, at this time, the cold wind blows across the lake, a circle of ripples ripples layer by layer, the surrounding forests are silent, and the lake surface intersects with the movement, that situation, there is a different kind of fun from other places in the capital, leading people to infinite reverie.

On a slightly warmer day, Sheng Zi'an put on a cloak and came here with his son to watch the scenery.

The deserted scene on the lake on weekdays is dissipated by the warmth of this day, and the lake surface looks more and more quiet under the little light, giving people a sense of silence and peace, and time seems to have frozen at this moment.

Sheng Zi'an looked at this pool of lake water, and the prince beside him also remained silent. In this silent atmosphere, both of them are quietly thinking, thinking about their past lives, and also feeling this most ordinary happiness.

The two rowed on the lake, immersed in the harmony of the lake and the autumn moon, half a day passed, and it was time to leave.

The two are still a little nostalgic, and they are a little reluctant to give up the atmosphere. Slowly move into Fuchu.

Xiao Jue first broke the quiet atmosphere, "Madam, why don't we come to the pot throwing game, if you hit, you will compose a poem, if you don't win, you will be punished with a glass of wine, how about it?" ”

"Zi'an's alcohol consumption is not good, and he will definitely get drunk when the time comes!"

"Madame agreed?"

"Come on, take out the green glaze pot of this world, and prepare the pen and ink and wine!"

At a distance of half a foot, the two put eight arrows into the pot in turn, the prince has always been a good archery, must be every shot, made a few decent poems, can be regarded as a literati and ink writer's demeanor, this Sheng Zi'an, but also a bit of foundation, only missed an arrow, there are poems and wine.

The two of them were very happy, and finally drank wine together, and talked happily in the house, which was pleasant and comfortable, and they drank under the moon.

In the middle of the night, the two of them stepped into the door drunk, and quietly, the moon had turned to the upper Xuanyue.

On the second day, all the subordinates in the palace of the four princes were driven out, and the four princes were intercepted at the gate of the palace by the guards sent by the emperor every day.
