Chapter 139: Protecting the Short

It's a pity, Jing Qicheng said very justifiably that he was afraid of guilt and couldn't beat Meng Combb.

Okay, okay, none of them help themselves.

The medical saint was very aggrieved, and looked at Meng with a resentful face.

"Uncle, it's not that your nephew and daughter-in-law are stingy, it's just that the money you gave to the storyteller in the teahouse is a bit too much."

She is also very helpless, and she doesn't want to be a wicked person, but the medical saint spends too much money.

In the past few days, he went to the teahouse to listen to the money he gave to his husband, which was enough to open a new teahouse.

If he really liked it, Meng Combrow didn't mind inviting ten or eight storytellers back in the palace to give him a speech book alone.

The healer muttered, "That's different. ”

It is precisely because of the fireworks in the market that the script is vivid and interesting, besides, the palace is so big, and the emperor has recently rewarded so many things, so it is not a big deal to spend some money on his own.

If you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, Meng Combrow also took over the palace before she realized that the expenses of the palace were so large.

Hundreds of people up and down all need silver, and those things that are rewarded from above are good, but there is no silver in the truth.

Jing Qicheng knew that his uncle was not the kind of unreasonable person, so he comforted him with a few words.

Chun Xing said on the side that there was a freshly steamed plum blossom cake in the kitchen, and it was just right to eat it now, and when the doctor heard it, his saliva flowed out, so he quickly asked Chun Xing to take him over.

"Uncle is a child, you have to bear with me."

"Don't worry, I won't bother with my own people."

The medical saint has also lived in the capital for many days, and everything is taken care of by Meng Combing, when was he stingy, but some unnecessary silver really does not need to be spent.

She needs to pay for every penny now, after all, there are still more places to use the money in the future.

"By the way, I heard that Mu Ying will also stay in the capital until the end of the year, but is there such a thing?"

Jing Qicheng nodded, the emperor's will is to let Mu Ying stay for a while, accompany General Mu more in the capital, and fulfill his filial piety.

"I'm asking you something."

She lowered her voice slightly.

Knowing his father Mo Ruozi, Jing Qicheng feels that the Mu family is so high and powerful, isn't the emperor afraid of it at all?

Since ancient times, all the birds are flying, the good bow is hidden, and the couch on the side does not allow others to snore, she does not feel that the emperor believes in the Mu family 100% in his heart.

"You're right, in fact, my father kept Mu Ying in the capital this time, because he had a plan to cut military power."

Although Concubine Yue's father, the dragoon general, also has military power, he is still the most popular in the Mu family in the army.

The emperor really didn't say anything explicitly, but as a courtier, speculating about the saint's intentions is the most basic, so whether it is Jing Qicheng or other ministers, they have actually noticed a little.

It's just that no one dares to say anything yet, because the Mu family and the crown prince are in the same breath, and no one wants to go against the future emperor.

"What about the prince?"

Doesn't the prince understand in his heart that even if he sits on the throne one day, it is impossible for the Mu family to stay?

"Presumably, the East Palace is also very conflicted now."

The crown prince not only needs the Mu family to help him sit on the throne, but he is also worried about whether the Mu family will be successful.

Fortunately, there is no war at the border now, if the Mu family is given some more opportunities to make contributions, I am afraid that Qingguo's surname may not be certain.

"It's my father's birthday in a few days, and I've prepared a congratulatory gift, do you want to take a look?"

Jing Qicheng said no, Meng Comb Mei has always been very relieved to do things.

It's just that on the birthday banquet, they will inevitably meet Jing Ran, last Mid-Autumn Festival, they were lucky, but this time they can't hide from the meeting.

Meng Combrow knew that Jing Qicheng still valued this younger brother very much, so he said that he would be cured of his illness otherwise.

"No, if you don't go, presumably the prince will definitely make irresponsible remarks."

Jing Qicheng gently stroked Meng's sideburns, it doesn't matter, no matter what happens, he is there.

The emperor wanted to be thrifty, so the birthday banquets in previous years were family banquets, but this year is different, Concubine Yue is pregnant, and the four seas are peaceful, the emperor is happy, and specially told the queen to get together well.

Jing Ran touched the horse that Meng Combrow had ridden in the horse farm, and sighed softly, after so many days, he still hasn't been able to see his sweetheart.

As he was looking at things and thinking about people, he heard a neighing of horses behind him, and he turned his head to see Jing Qicheng dismounting.

"Brother Wang, you're here."

Jing Qicheng saw Jing Ran's gloomy face, in fact, he also knew in his heart that there were some things that Jing Ran really couldn't let go.

Thousands of shouldn't, never be, he shouldn't fall in love with a woman he can't like.

"This is a dim sum made by your sister-in-law herself, you can take it."

Jing Qicheng instructed the little servant to bring a food box over, and each layer of it was filled with different snacks, which were exquisite and the taste was also very refreshing, which was exactly the kind that Jing Ran liked.

Jing Qicheng also picked up a piece of the pastry and ate a piece, and let Jing Ran take the rest back to eat.

"Thank you, Brother Wang, for your kindness."

"If there is a woman by your side who can take care of you, my brother Wang won't have to worry about you."

Jing Ran just smiled bitterly, and after a long time, he said that he was not like the prince who was born as the eldest son, he had everything, and he was not as smart as Jing Qicheng, he just wanted to find the woman he liked, a couple for the rest of his life, and a pair of immortals.

"Actually, if we can be born in an ordinary family, this is just the simplest thing, but we are princes."

Jing Ran raised his head helplessly and looked at the sky, with his temperament, it was not suitable to stay in the royal family.

Jing Qicheng didn't say anything, just said lightly: "Everyone is involuntarily, you and I are the same." ”

It's really the first floor in the world, and the things you find are good.

Meng combed his eyebrows and looked at the Shoushan stone in front of him, such a large Shoushan stone is very rare, and what is even rarer is its shape, which looks like a longevity word at first glance.

Shopkeeper Zhu also took a lot of effort to find this thing, and I heard that it took a month just to transport it to the capital.

"By the way, do you know what is prepared by the East Palace?"

"The people in the East Palace are very tight, and our people can't inquire about anything for the time being."

Meng combed her eyebrows and snorted, she remembered that last year the prince gave a pair of harmonious bat jade ornaments, which would glow at night, and the emperor was full of praise after seeing it.

The prince has strong financial resources, and there are many people to help him, so he can naturally collect good things, but I don't know what surprise he wants to give the emperor this year?

Meng combed his eyebrows and asked the shopkeeper Zhu again if he had found what he wanted.

"I've already brought it."

Because this medicine is not ordinary, it was given to the shopkeeper Zhu personally, but this medicine is very violent, and he doesn't know what Meng Combrow wants this medicine to do?
