The old lady was kind to each other, and Jiang Wan replied ignorantly.

She didn't ask much, just looked at the old lady quietly to see how long she could be kind.

When she first entered the house, she didn't miss the cold expression on the old lady's face and the second lady's lively expression, and her intuition told her that this was a pit.

But she hasn't figured out exactly where the pit is dug yet, so let's see first.

The old lady fiddled with the Buddha beads and said slowly, "Wanjuanlou has the support of the emperor, and the queen mother knows about this, but the old lady of the Protector Mansion has a life-saving grace for the queen mother, and the queen mother has always been gracious, and there is no reason not to help her." ”

"The Queen Mother let Wanjuanlou not sell lonely and rare books, but you take the Queen Mother's words as a deaf ear, and the opening of Wanjuanlou today is even more disgraceful to the Queen Mother, do you know how serious the consequences are?!"

At last, the old lady's voice became fierce in vain.

Jiang Wan's heart was full of anger, and she was about to speak, when Qi Moyuan shook his head at her.

Jiang Juan didn't know why Qi Moyuan stopped her, but she endured the words that came to her mouth.

Wanjuanlou is not her alone, and it is the same for Qi Moyuan to dispose of it.

I saw Qi Mo looking at the old lady from afar and said, "It is not Wanjuanlou that makes the Queen Mother lose face, it is the cherishing of the word, even if the Queen Mother wants to be angry, she will only be angry with the word." ”

The second wife smiled, "It's you who take the Queen Mother's words as a deaf ear, why did you make the Queen Mother lose face?" ”

Qi Moyuan said lazily, "The Protector Mansion is kind to the Queen Mother, this kindness, the Queen Mother remembers, and the emperor has not forgotten it." ”

"The emperor supports Wanjuanlou in order to open the academy, but Wanjuanlou has copied a lot of lonely rare books, so it was burned, Wanjuanlou has suffered heavy losses before it opens, the emperor can't bear it, and specially allows Wanjuanlou to sell out the copied solitary rare books, doing so, there is no point that does not take into account the face of the Queen Mother, even if the Queen Mother knows, she will not object."

"Wanjuanlou's fault, but did not negotiate the price with the word Zhai, but unfortunately the word Zhai relied on the support of the Queen Mother, and used the urgency of the world's readers to see the rare book to set the price so high, which attracted public anger and implicated the Queen Mother."

"The second aunt didn't think there was a problem with the word Zhai, but she thought that Wanjuanlou swept the face of the Queen Mother, and this word should be spread, and it is difficult to ensure that people will not misunderstand the Queen Mother's right and wrong."

The second wife couldn't sit on the chair anymore, and said coldly, "Didn't Wanjuanlou know that Xizizhai wanted to sell rare books so deliberately set the price so low?!" ”

Jiang Juan couldn't hold back at all, looked at Qi Mo and said, "Xianggong, it seems that you have to go to the emperor to ask for the right to sell lonely rare books in Wanjuanlou, otherwise the second aunt really thinks that we are deliberately squeezing down the Xizizhai and ruining the reputation of the Queen Mother to sell the books so cheaply." ”

Qi Moyuan frowned and said, "The Queen Mother has already promised to protect the Princess, and if I go to the emperor again, won't it make the emperor embarrassed?" ”

"The emperor's original intention is to keep those lonely rare books, in this case, it is actually the same whether the ten thousand rolls are sold or the word is sold."

"If you don't sell these lone rare books, the profits of Wanjuanlou are almost enough."

Jiang Juan felt that something was not quite right, and he had never heard Qi Moyuan say so many words in one breath.

The old lady is abnormal, and he is also abnormal.

When things go wrong, there must be demons.

Jiang Juan looked at Qi Moyuan and asked with his eyes.

Qi Mo didn't reply to her, only glanced at the back of the screen, and Jiang Juan suddenly understood everything.

There is someone behind the screen.

And this person was sent by the Queen Mother.

She said that the old lady looked at her sharply, but spoke very kindly, it turned out to be a play.

If Qi Moyuan hadn't interrupted her in time just now, she would have said something to offend the Queen Mother, and when the time came, it reached the ears of the Queen Mother, and the old lady had kind words for her, but she not only didn't listen, but also said that her Queen Mother was partial to helping the Protector Mansion, and the Queen Mother was not sure what to become.

It's different now, they didn't say half a word about the Queen Mother, and they followed the Queen Mother, didn't they blame Wanjuanlou for not selling lonely rare books?

They don't sell anymore.

Let Xizizhai take over this job alone.

But the price of Wanjuan is so cheap, if the word is expensive, it will definitely anger the public and implicate the Queen Mother.

But if you have to take into account the cheapness of the Queen Mother, that is, you will lose money inside.

This is undoubtedly worse for Xizizhai.

This move is to retreat into advance, and directly forced Xizizhai to a dead end.

What a fox.

The old lady sat on the Luohan couch, the Buddha beads in her hand were fast and slow, and she didn't know what to say.

There was a sudden silence in the room.

Jiang Wan's eyes rolled, and he looked at Qi Mo and said, "Xianggong, let's go into the palace to admit our mistake to the Queen Mother, in case the Queen Mother misunderstands that the Emperor is biased to help us, won't it cause discord between the Queen Mother and the Emperor?" ”

“…… It's okay," Qi Moyuan happily agreed.

Jiang Juan and Qi Moyuan retired with the old lady.

Watching them go, my intuition told the old lady that she should stop her, but she couldn't spit out the words when they came to her mouth.

Calling people back in a hurry, isn't it just to blame them for their poor handling and damage to the prestige of the Queen Mother?

People took the initiative to enter the palace to admit their mistakes to the Queen Mother, and she had no reason to stop her.

Here, Jiang Juan and Qi Moyuan walked to the gate of the palace, and a carriage from the palace drove over.

What was done in the carriage was none other than Chang Gonggong.

Lifting the curtain, seeing Jiang Juan and Qi Moyuan, Chang Gonggong was full of smiles, "I'm here for a coincidence, one step later, the prince and the princess will leave the house?" ”

Jiang Juan said with a smile, "Father-in-law Chang is unfortunate to come, if it is later, you don't have to make this trip." ”

Father-in-law Chang was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said with a smile, "The prince and princess are going to enter the palace, so I really ran away in vain this time." ”

When the emperor heard that the Queen Mother had sent someone to Jing'an Palace, he thought about it, and was afraid that the two juniors would suffer, so he specially asked him to come.

Looking at the smiling appearance, it should not have suffered a loss.

Qi Moyuan asked, "Father-in-law Chang is here?" ”

Father-in-law Chang said with a smile, "Since the prince and the princess are going to enter the palace, I won't pass on the emperor's words." ”

Father-in-law Chang didn't say anything, and they didn't ask any more questions, anyway, when they entered the palace, they also planned to go to see the emperor first.

Got into the carriage and headed straight for the palace.

They walked on the front foot, and Chen's mother sent a grandmother out on the back foot, watching the carriage go away, and the grandmother's brows were twisted.

The princess of King Jing'an entered the palace to admit her mistake to the queen mother, but her intuition told her that this was not a good thing.

When the carriage came, Mama also got into the carriage and went back to the palace.

After entering the palace, Qi Moyuan took Jiang Juan to the imperial study, accompanied by Chang Gonggong.

Jiang Juan entered the palace for the first time, and looked around because of curiosity, worthy of the palace, carved beams and painted buildings, far from Jing'an Wangfu and Hejian Wangfu can be compared.

After walking for a while, I arrived at the imperial study, and as soon as I went up the steps, I saw a middle-aged man dressed luxuriously walked out of the imperial study, he was holding a painting in his hand, and his face was so ugly that he could not find the words to describe it.

The man walked over, Chang Gonggong saluted, and the people didn't pay attention to it, and left directly.

Jiang Juan asked curiously, "Who is this?" ”

"Lord Yong," Qi Moyuan replied.

At this time, a little father-in-law came out, and Chang's father-in-law asked, "Why is Prince Yong's face so ugly, what's wrong?" ”

The little father-in-law whispered, "Didn't Prince Yong fall in love with the emperor's landscape map a few days ago, but the emperor didn't give it to him, so he asked him to exchange the painting." ”

"Prince Yong has a new painting, which happens to be liked by the emperor, isn't this just taken into the palace, and the result is a fake."

"The emperor said, 'You take a fake and want to exchange it for my real handiwork, the courage is really not small', the frightened King Yong fell to his knees, the emperor was not really angry, and the face of King Yong was ugly, it should be a ...... with a sore knee."
