Chapter 673: Meritorious Service
The Protector has a terrible headache.
The court battle did not have the inner house struggle to make him hard, it was not easy for the proprietress of Jinxiufang to regress, and it was even more difficult to make the Duchess of the Protector regress.
The Duchess of Huguo didn't take the proprietress of the Splendid Workshop, so she took the maid next to her to get angry.
The proprietress of Splendid Workshop did not dare to kill the Duchess of the Protectorate, so she could only return an eye for an eye with a tooth for a tooth.
It's an endless loop.
It is estimated that only one side can breathe to solve it.
However, the Lord Protector was in a good mood, he was not bothered by these trivial matters, God helped, the prince of Jing'an vomited blood on the street and fainted, the unshakable position of the prince was in jeopardy, as long as he worked harder, the position of the prince was the second young master of Qi.
The next day, the Lord Protector united a group of ministers to put pressure on the emperor.
Qi Moming and Qi Moyuan are vying for the position of the prince, and some ministers are watching and swaying, after all, Qi Moyuan is the son-in-law of the Hejian Palace, and there is also a skilled iron doctor who is the princess of King Jing'an.
Just because you're weak doesn't mean you're not going to get better.
Now supports Qi Moming's fight for the position of the prince, doesn't this make it clear that he is the enemy of the prince of Jing'an?
In case the throne of the prince is not seized, he will inherit the military power in the hands of King Jing'an in the future, and he will be an official in the same dynasty in the future, and just throw them a small shoe, which is enough for them to hurt.
Caution is better.
But now Qi Moyuan vomited blood on the street, and a mouthful of blood directly pushed those swinging courtiers to Qi Moming.
In the court, almost except for the prince's henchmen, and Jiang Lao's prince's opponents, the emperor's henchmen are watching, and the rest support Qi Moming.
There are not many courtiers in the emperor's henchmen, and the protector of the country has arrested a few impeachments, and those who are officials can really do it with a clean breeze on their sleeves, and some things can not be taken seriously, but if they are really serious, even the emperor can't protect them.
The emperor was in a wheelchair with a gloomy face.
Because the protector of the country was impeached first, and when a minister pleaded for intercession as a guarantee, the protector of the country changed his words and wanted to change the prince of Jing'an.
This clearly means that the emperor is going to change the world, and the affairs of those ministers will be settled.
If the emperor agrees to change the son, the affairs of those ministers will not be taken lightly.
The pressure of the protector is very euphemistic, and it is also very flamboyant, and the emperor is in a wheelchair, and he is choked with anger.
Old Prince Jiang was also angry.
Compared with the position of the son, he is more concerned about the safety of his grandson-in-law.
His grandson-in-law doesn't know what illness he is doing, is it necessary for the protector to fall into the well like this?!
"Is the Lord Protector so obsessed with changing King Jing'an?" Old Prince Jiang's voice is like a bell.
"Is it just for the emperor and the hundred officials to deal with such a trivial matter?!"
"If it's just about dealing with this, it's not going to be able to do it a long time ago!"
Old Prince Jiang flicked his sleeves and raised his feet to leave.
Lord Xian hurriedly stopped him, "Old prince, don't go, I still have something important to show to the emperor, and I need to listen to your old man's opinion." ”
As he spoke, he pushed Old Prince Jiang back into his position, and then shifted the matter of changing the world.
The Protector also knew that it would not be easy for the prince and the emperor to change the world for a while, but since he had started this way, he had to achieve his goal, and the military power in the hands of King Jing'an was too important to him.
Even if the prince of Jing'an has martial arts, he is also a sick man who will be poisoned when he rides a horse, and he can't become a climate, and the emperor will not do such a stupid thing if he loses so many ministers for such a waste.
Of course, letting the emperor retreat under pressure is too damaging to the majesty of the emperor, as long as there is a powerful persuasion to the emperor, the emperor will naturally go down the steps.
And this person is none other than the Empress Dowager.
What happened in the council hall, the empress dowager was clear, and after listening to the palace people's report, Mama Sun couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
In recent years, the Protector has become more and more reckless.
Fortunately, King Cheng died, if King Cheng married the daughter of the Protector Mansion, the court was only afraid that the Protector would cover the sky with one hand.
The Empress Dowager sighed.
Mama Sun hurriedly said, "The Empress Dowager ......." ”
The Empress Dowager waved her hand, "I'm fine." ”
"After the emperor goes to court, please invite him to come to me."
Park King Heen.
Inside the house, Jiang Juan leaned on the big pillow, his face was pale, and his usual spirit was like a hibiscus blooming in the wind in midsummer, and it was like a frost at this time.
Jin Er burst into tears in distress, "Girl, don't be angry, even if my uncle can't inherit the Jing'an Palace, it's not a big deal, and the girl is not bad for money, she will definitely have more money than the second young master." ”
Jiang Wan smiled.
The position of the prince is not just a family property, but a military power in the hands of the prince.
Jin Er understood, she said, "The military power in the hands of the prince is not inherited by the uncle, so let the old prince and the eldest young master rob it." ”
Anyway, military power is grabbed.
"It's really outrageous the more you talk about it, okay, I'm not so angry with your girl," Jiang Juan said, her brows twisted into Sichuan characters in distress.
I don't have the ability to fight with people, and I haven't been beaten, so I can get internal injuries.
If what Imperial Physician Li said was true, Qi Moyuan had Gu worms in her body, then there was a chance that the scurrying things in her body were also Gu worms.
Just as he was thinking about it, a smell of medicine wafted into the tip of his nose.
Si'er came in with medicine.
Looking at Jiang Juan's pale face, Si'er didn't understand, it was obviously the uncle who was helped back, why was it their girls who were more sick?
Jiang Juan is good at medical skills, and she also likes the fragrance of herbs, so she will not get tired of dealing with herbs all day long, but a bowl of bitter medicine lets her drink it, and her love for herbs is mostly gone.
But she can't stop drinking, she doesn't have the ability to heal her internal injuries by carrying it.
He drank the medicine in one gulp, rinsed his mouth with water, ate candied fruit, and then asked, "What about Imperial Doctor Li, haven't you come yet?" ”
Si'er shook his head, "Not yet." ”
"I've already sent someone to invite it, Imperial Doctor Li doesn't dare to delay, he will definitely come soon."
Jiang Juan didn't have to see Imperial Doctor Li, she was looking for Imperial Doctor Li to read those medical books related to Gu worms.
If Qi Moyuan's illness is not cured, sooner or later she will have internal injuries.
One time was enough for her.
Si'er went out with a medicine bowl, and when he went out, he almost collided with a little maid who entered the house.
Si'er said, "What's the matter, leaving in such a hurry?" ”
The little maid replied, "The shopkeeper of the Book of Eternal Life asks to see the princess of the world." ”
Si'er wanted to say that the girl was sick like this, and some messy people asked to see her and come to tell her.
Just as he was about to speak, Jin Er spoke first, "Girl, why don't you send people away?" ”
Jiang Juan leaned on the big pillow and said, "Please come in." ”
The story of eternal life is the shop where Jiang Juan bought the jade pendant with the county lord of Changning.
She looked at Miss Li's face and opened up on the Internet, and after the Empress Dowager handed over the matter of checking the funeral jade to Qi Moyuan, she sent someone to greet Changshengji, giving Changshengji a chance to make meritorious contributions.
Qi Mo was far from Bai Jingxuan, she was weak and couldn't go out, so she could only see the shopkeeper of Changshengji in the house.
Although they are outsiders, with Steward Zhao and Fang's mother in the house, it can be regarded as a big public.
As Jiang Juan expected, it was not only the shopkeeper of Changshengji who came, but also a man who looked skinny and had a pair of sneaky eyes, which made people uncomfortable when they looked at it.
Thinking that this was a tomb robber and letting her into the house, Jin Er felt unlucky.
The shopkeeper of Changshengji looked worried, the man's eyes flashed, looking at the valuable ornaments in the room and swallowing his saliva, the shopkeeper of Changshengji said that he had made a meritorious service and brought him to the prince and princess of Jing'an to receive the reward, I don't know what good things will reward him?
The man looked expectant.
As a result, as soon as he stepped forward, the foot of the shopkeeper of Changshengji lifted and directly kicked him to his knees.
The poor man was thinking about something beautiful, when he suddenly received such a kick that his knee hit the ground, and he heard the sound of shattering in a trance.
This time, not only scared the man, but even Steward Zhao and Fang's mother were scared.
Steward Zhao and Mother Fang both guessed why Jiang Juan wanted to see such a thief-eyed man, especially when he was still in the house, and besides, the princess was still so weak!
The man's eyes were sore and sweat was dripping down his head.
The shopkeeper of Changshengji knelt down, looked at Jiang Wan and said, "It was my ghost who was greedy and cheap, so I accepted the jade pendant he stolen, and even the princess was trained, and today I brought him to accept the interrogation of the princess, and I hope that the princess will forgive me for the sake of my sincere repentance." ”
When the shopkeeper of Changshengji said, the man gritted his teeth and said, "Didn't you say that I made a meritorious service and brought me here to ask for a reward?!" ”
He said that.
If he doesn't say that, can he honestly come to Jing'an Mansion with him?
The prince of Jing'an sent someone to send him a message, asking him to find the person who sold the jade pendant to him, and there would be a reward at that time.
He didn't ask for a reward, and he was satisfied if he could dispel the anger of the princess of Jing'an.
Jiang Juan looked at the man and said, "Where did you steal the jade pendant?" ”
The man's back was cold, and he said, "I picked up that jade pendant!" ”
"Won't you tell the truth?" Jiang Juan said with a smile.
The man was very bold, not bold and did not dare to steal the things of the dead, he said, "Although I often do some things like stealing chickens and touching dogs, but there are also times when I have dog shit luck, that piece of jade pendant was picked up by me, and I knew that it was a piece of funeral jade, so I sold it to Changshengji cheaply." ”
Jiang Juan smiled, "Is the tomb of the county lord of Changning easy to rob?" ”
The man's body sank.
Fang's mother and Steward Zhao were stunned.
The tomb of the county lord of Changning?
This tomb robber stole the tomb of the county lord of Changning?
That piece of funeral jade that angered the cousin and the old lady belonged to the county lord of Changning?!
This......
The man said, "What is the tomb of the county lord of Changning?" ”
Jin Er stood on the edge of the bed and puffed out her cheeks angrily, "I think you have to be beaten to tell the truth, just because you sold the jade pendant of the county lord of Changning to Changshengji, and with Changshengji as a witness, you will die!" ”
Before Jin Er's words fell, the shopkeeper of Changsheng Ji said, "I am willing to testify!" ”
The man is really scared now, he is a little tomb robber, he loves money a little and is bolder, but he is facing the princess of Jing'an Palace, and people can crush him to death as long as they raise a finger.
The man said, "I don't know it's the tomb of the county lord of Changning, I can't read ......." ”
Doesn't the teller always say, "He who does not know is not guilty?"
Jiang Juan looked at him, "How many things did you steal from the tomb of the county lord of Changning?" ”
That's what I asked.
That's to take as much as you can.
He went back and forth six or seven times.
"I can't remember," the man said.
Mother Fang couldn't help but say, "It's really a thousand knives, you dare to steal dead people's things!" ”
The man didn't speak.
Can he say that the things of the dead are better to steal than those of the living?
Jiang Juan didn't really care about how many things the tomb robbers stole from, what she cared about, "What about the bones of the county lord of Changning, you also stole them?" ”
The man looked up at Jiang Juan, "What am I doing stealing the bones of the county lord of Changning?" ”
Although he was not afraid of that thing, he could neither eat nor sell it, and it was of no use at all.
He didn't have enough valuable things in the tomb to hold in his hands, so could he still free his hands to hold other people's bones?
Jiang Wan frowned, "Really?!" ”
The man raised his hand and swore, "I really didn't steal the bones...... ”
"You're lying! You even dare to do such a thunderous thing as robbing a tomb, are you still afraid to swear? Jin Er said.
The man was a little weak, "But I really didn't steal the bones, I, I just ...... the golden clothes on the bones." ”
At this moment, Steward Zhao's face couldn't be maintained.
What is the identity of the county lord of Changning, after his death, he actually let such a small insult, so that the empress dowager knows, and she doesn't know how to be sad, it's really not enough to cut five horses and divide the corpse with a thousand knives!
Jiang Juan looked at the man, the man's face didn't look like he was lying, Jiang Juan said, "You didn't steal the corpse of the county lord of Changning, how did the corpse in the coffin become a man?" ”
The man suddenly looked up at Jiang Juan, shuddered, and opened his mouth to say, "Princess, don't scare me......." ”
Jiang Xuan, "....... ”
"You're a tomb robber, and you're still scared?" Jin Er said.
The man had nothing to say, he swore an oath, "I really didn't steal the corpse of the county lord of Changning, I stole the golden clothes, as well as the gold, silver and jewelry that accompanied the burial in the tomb, and inherited the favor of the county lord of Changning, and deliberately placed the messy corpses, even the bones of the child in her belly I put there without dropping...... ”
A child in the belly?
Almost in the light of the carbide fire, a bold idea flashed.
Fang's mother and Steward Zhao glanced at each other.
The county lord of Changning died in childbirth, and they all knew it, but they didn't hear that she was pregnant with twins.
In addition, it is easy to have a difficult birth when pregnant with twins, but it is very rare to give birth to one, and it is difficult to give birth to one.
Jiang Juan looked at the man and asked him to tell in detail how he had put the corpses back in order, and the man he said was terrified.
Who is the princess of Jing'an, it is not enough to say such a scary thing, but it needs to be more detailed?
She dared to listen, didn't he dare to speak?
Listening to it again, Jiang Juan was even more firm in his guess.
At this time-
Outside the house, Si'er ran in and said, "Girl, the emperor has sent Chang Gonggong to announce the decree." ”
Jiang Wan frowned.
Qi Moming and Concubine Mei were anxious about the emperor's decree, but was the emperor so anxious?
Father-in-law Chang knew that Qi Moyuan was unwell, so he came to Bai Jingxuan very considerately, but was told that Qi Moyuan had gone out.
Chang Gonggong, "......." ”
"Didn't the prince vomit blood and faint yesterday?" Chang Gonggong's voice is floating.
It's dizzy on the street.
You'll be out of the house in just a day?
What about this dizzy play?
Gonggong Chang looked at the holy decree in his hand, and he didn't know if it was announced or not.
That's it.
It's all here, so let's announce it.
"The prince is not here, so let the princess take it on his behalf," Chang Gonggong said understandingly.
It's just that this time it's on the horse's hooves.
Jiang Juan was helped out of the room by Jin'er, and Chang Gonggong's eyes didn't know how to turn when he was panting for breath.
Isn't the princess of King Jing'an an an iron doctor?
She, she, how did she become weak?
Who was the one who fainted on the street yesterday and vomited blood?
Father-in-law Chang wrinkled his eyebrows and said, "Princess, ...... are you?" ”
Jiang Juan couldn't tell the truth, so he could only lie, "Use blood into medicine to detoxify Xianggong, excessive blood loss, it's no big deal, it makes Chang Gonggong worried." ”
No wonder.
"The princess has a deep affection for the princess, which is really moving, so there is no need to kneel," Chang Gonggong said softly.
He received the decree from the tray held by the little father-in-law behind him.
Read.
Well.
The content is first-class, and Qi Moyuan is not stingy with praise for words, and Jiang Wan who praises him doesn't know why.
After the praise, I came to a sentence -
Canonized the princess of King Jing'an as the king of Mojun.
Bai Jingxuan was worried that Qi Moyuan's position as the prince would be taken away, and now when he heard that the emperor had canonized Qi Moyuan as the king of the county, they all couldn't close their mouths happily.
Only Jiang Wan frowned.
The emperor definitely didn't canonize Qi Moyuan for the sake of protecting the country.
This is really going to take the position of Qi Moyuan's son.
Jiang Juan accepted the holy decree and asked with a smile, "When will the other holy decree be issued?" ”
Father-in-law Chang was impressed by Jiang Juan's intelligence, and he said, "It's always a few days late." ”
Jiang Juan didn't say anything, looked at Chang Gong and said, "I have something to tell the Empress Dowager, it is inconvenient to enter the palace, and the maid will do it for me, but the maid is timid, and it is troublesome for Chang Gonggong to accompany her." ”
Father-in-law Chang nodded, "The princess is so good to recuperate." ”
After speaking, he looked at Jin Er, "Come with me into the palace." ”
Jin Er followed Chang Gonggong away.
After they left, Jiang Juan handed over the tomb robber to Steward Zhao, "This person Steward Zhao took him to see the prince." ”
Steward Zhao nodded again and again.
The man begged for mercy.
Jiang Wan said, "You don't have to beg me for mercy, you have done evil, but maybe your merits will outweigh your faults." ”
No problem, Su Guogong will not exchange the corpse of the county lord of Changning for a man.
The man was confused.
Can tomb robbers still make meritorious contributions?
The princess of Jing'an is not Kuang him, right?
The man asked Steward Zhao.
Steward Zhao said, "Kuang, what good do you have to the princess?" ”
No.
But how did he make a meritorious service?
The man's head wanted to explode, but he didn't think of a star.
followed Steward Zhao step by step.
There was such a thief-eyed man in the palace, and he also entered the room of the prince and the princess, and after a while, he was taken by Steward Zhao to see the prince, and finally was taken out of the mansion by Uncle Wei......
If such a person had become the center of discussion in the past, but today, everyone's discussion point is on the emperor canonizing the prince as the king of the county.
The position of the prince of the world is really going to the second young master.
A bunch of people went to the county lord of Anyang and Concubine Mei to offer their courtesy.
The tail of Concubine Mei almost rose to the sky, "What can I do if I am named the king of the county?" Are there fewer named kings in Kyoto? ”
The military power in the hands of the prince is fragrant.
With the prince's military power, her son can even shake the emperor's dragon chair, will he be a princess of the county in his eyes?
What a joke!
The maid stood aside and said, "I heard that the princess is so weak that even the wind can blow down, but she has to go to the palace to see the queen mother, and she has been gone for more than an hour, and she has not come back yet." ”
Concubine Mei was happy, but she didn't take it to heart at all.
As everyone knows, Jin'er's departure has shaken her son's position as the son of the world.
