Chapter 241: King Wei Returns South
Lu Qingjin sat on the main seat lightly, and the little eunuch of the Internal Affairs Office on the side looked at Xiao Si a little blankly, Xiao Si coughed and said slowly: "Niangniang, your things are ready, do you want to go over and take a look!" ”
The little eunuch laughed twice and led the way in front, Lu Qingjin followed behind without speaking, and when a few people just walked to the door, they met Concubine Li, Concubine Li smiled and said gently: "I just happened to have nothing to do, so I came to talk to Niangniang, it seems that I have encountered something interesting." ”
Lu Qingjin looked at the tiles on the city wall as he walked: "It's not fun, it's just that now the locust matter is imminent, and I'm just thinking of a way to cure it." ”
Concubine Li looked around and pulled Lu Qingjin back a few steps and said lightly: "I have heard about the matter of King Wei a long time ago, if it is really you who did it, you should be careful, I heard that Zhao Yunheng was very angry, now that he has done it, the grandmother who was born is dead, and he is about to find out about you."
Lu Qingjin looked at the little eunuch in front of him casually brushing the leaves of a tree: "You are thinking too much, I have been busy finding the person who is the chef of the aunt these days, I don't have the time and energy, but Lu Youruo is very excessive, I wonder if I want to teach her a lesson." ”
Concubine Li snorted lightly and said lightly: "It's nothing, it's just a stupid woman, if you have anything you want to do, you can hand it over to the emperor, after all, now Lu Youruo can be regarded as the in-law of King Wei." ”
The two of them arrived at the door of the Internal Affairs Mansion while talking, and Lu Qingjin raised his feet and crossed the high threshold: "Didn't you say that Mrs. Yun had already restrained Lu Qi?" Why did these two become in-laws again? Could it be that my Qinglan died in vain? ”
Concubine Li smiled and looked at the little eunuchs coming and going in the distance, and her voice was indifferent: "Zhao Yunheng is still a power-obsessed person after all, even if he has a sincere heart for Qinglan, what can it be, but it is better than nothing, as for Lu Qi, it is even more so, there are people who are tied up for a while, and King Wei will not care too much even if he is uncomfortable." ”
When Lu Qingjin walked to the gate of a courtyard, he saw that the cages in the garden were full of ducks, and Concubine Li sighed with some confusion: "Is this the duck of the entire palace?" What kind of rare food is to be eaten? ”
Lu Qingjin squatted down and looked at the quality of the duck and smiled: "What you said is too childish, could it be that I eat all the food I make all day long?" This duck is used to cure locusts, and you only see some of them, and the rest is outside the palace. ”
When a little eunuch saw it, he hurriedly ran over and wiped his sweat and said helplessly: "This is already all the ducks in the palace, but there is still a lot of one short of the one thousand that Niangniang said, so the minions will go outside the palace to buy." ”
Lu Qingjin waved his way and smiled helplessly: "One thousand is not a number that must be completed, but it is just an approximate number, these are the ones here, the silver in the palace has just been abundant, so don't move." ”
The little eunuch agreed before he came to his senses: "But where are we going to send so many ducks?" ”
Concubine Li looked at it with interest and didn't speak, but Xiao Cui on the side whispered: "The carriage at the door is ready, you just need to send it up, you don't have to worry about other things, naturally someone will take it to the designated place." ”
The little eunuch hurriedly led someone to carry the ducks to the carriage, and Concubine Li, who was on the side, asked puzzledly: "Are you saying that these ducks can control locusts?" I've never heard of it. ”
Lu Qingjin raised his head proudly: "There are many things in this world that you haven't heard of!" Since you brought it up, I'll show you what this duck is all about. ”
Many people at the gate of Jingcheng pointed at the frame of King Wei, and a young man seemed to have just entered the city with a burden on his back and asked in a strange accent: "This carriage looks really magnificent, but I don't know what kind of royal relatives it is?" I look at you like I don't like him. ”
An old lady let out a long sigh: "Don't ask, if the child doesn't know, the left and right are not good people, just live well in the capital in the future, we have a good queen, and we will be able to live a better life in the future." ”
The young man nodded as if he didn't understand, and the old man on the side suddenly pointed to the palace gate and said, "Look at what that is?" How do I look like a flock of ducks? ”
Everyone looked back, and they didn't know when a lot of ducks were driven out of the palace, and the locusts in the air disappeared little by little as if they had encountered fire and ice, and the ducks ran towards the outside of the city under the attention of everyone.
The young man looked at him dumbfounded, and asked in a trembling voice, "This is also the idea that the queen mother in the palace came up with?" ”
But now no one answered him, everyone looked at the ducks with hot eyes and cheered, many people knelt on the ground and shouted Long live the queen, Lu Qingjin on the palace wall looked at the scene in the capital and laughed softly: "I was disappointed in them at the beginning, but fortunately people will not be disappointed all the time, I am finally bitter, but I am very grateful for your support all the time, but now it is all better, do you really want to change camps?" ”
Concubine Li's smile stiffened, and she sighed faintly: "Did the queen mother see it just now?" When King Wei left, he couldn't stop looking at the capital, do you think a person like him would be grateful for the emperor's grace? ”
Lu Qingjin looked at the carriage that was only left with smoke and dust in the distance, straightened the hair that was blown by the wind, and said indifferently: "You and I both know, it is very likely that he will not be able to come back this time, we are all busy people, what is there to worry about such a dead person, but Zhao Yunheng is even more terrifying, after all, one of my cronies died under such calculations." ”
Concubine Li didn't speak for a long time, Lu Qingjin stood aside without urging, only the sound of the wind could be heard on the empty city wall for a while, the people in the city were still cheering, and the ducks had slowly left the city, there were fewer and fewer locusts in the air, and a disaster ended in this way.
Lu Qingjin didn't say anything and walked down the city wall coldly, Concubine Li stood behind her and didn't move, Xiaocui walked over with some concern: "The queen seems to be very angry, don't you really tell the truth?" After all, Qinglan's mother and son survived, you helped a lot! ”
Concubine Li shook her head and sighed tiredly: "So what? In the final analysis, we can't live with her, and even if we do, the queen may not forgive. ”
