Chapter 229: A Life, For You (27)
As soon as Qiao Shi spoke, Duchess Mingguo was stunned, then her brows furrowed, anger flashed in her eyes, and she looked at Ming Nianyue unhappily.
"That's your upbringing, don't you have any rules?! There's no shame in showing up! ”
"Duchess Mingguo said this, my mother's upbringing was also taught by you, I have no rules, don't you have a reason?"
Qiao Shi retorted unceremoniously.
Ming Nianyue secretly pulled Qiao Shi's hand and motioned her to stop talking.
Qiao Shi held Ming Nianyue's hand and spoke in a low voice.
"Mother, if there are people in this world who hurt you in the name of their relatives, then they must not care about this family affection, in this case, why do you care?"
"It's different, they gave me a blessing, and there are some things you can't get rid of."
Ming Nianyue sighed.
Qiao Shi understood her thoughts, in this world, filial piety is always greater than everything, but the final fate of the Ming State Mansion is obviously not much better.
In the future, Ning Ze is the one who will reach the top, although the Ming State Mansion has not been involved, but General Zhenguo is the key person in it, and Ning Ze will definitely be liquidated in the end.
"Mother, you also know that I haven't been in the capital since I was a child, and when I come back this time, I only recognize you and my sister, and I have nothing to do with others."
Qiao Shi had a smile on the corner of his mouth, but he obviously didn't take the Ming Guo Mansion in his eyes.
Ming Nianyue knew that she couldn't move Qiao Shi, and she didn't plan to persuade her, but no matter how high Qiao Shi's status was, it would be difficult to marry someone in the future if she had an unfilial reputation.
Thinking of this, Ming Nianyue let go of Qiao Shi's hand and walked to the front to apologize.
It's just that the anger of the Duchess of Mingguo is obviously not so easy to extinguish.
"Okay, good, you really let me know a lot, and from now on I won't have you as a daughter!"
In front of so many people being disgraced, the Duchess of Mingguo waved her sleeves and turned back to the carriage.
Ming Guogong also glanced at Ming Nianyue with displeasure, and finally his gaze fell on Qiao Shi with a touch of probing.
Qiao Shi looked at it generously, and a smile was raised at the corner of his mouth, how did he look like a provocation.
Ming Guogong frowned slightly and withdrew his gaze, and then returned to the carriage.
Duke Ming Guo and Duchess Ming Guo were gone, and it was obviously impossible for Shizi and Mrs. Shizi to stay, so the two smiled awkwardly and took their daughter back to the carriage.
Qiao Shi said loudly through the carriage.
"Duchess of Mingguo, isn't it too late for you to say this, as early as fifteen years ago, you have already discarded your mother and my mother, fifteen years of ignoring my own daughter is the first time I have seen it, but now I blame my mother in turn, this cheeky is really thick!"
"Time."
Ming Nianyue nervously covered Qiao Shi's mouth, and then looked at the carriage in horror.
I saw that the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and Ming Guogong stretched out his head with a gloomy face.
"Mrs. Hui, even if you don't recognize your grandfather and grandmother, you shouldn't be so wildly talked, is it true that no one can cure you?"
"What? Ming Guogong wants to secretly send someone to assassinate me? ”
Qiao Shi didn't care at all.
Ming Guogong: "......"
"Humph!"
With a cold snort, Ming Guogong flicked the curtain and entered the carriage, and the carriage drove away quickly.
Although the farce that happened at the door made many people look down on Qiao Shi behind their backs, but in the same way, no one dared to come and provoke him.
Anyway, the task is completed, and Sanya will no longer exist, reputation or something, Qiao Shi really doesn't care.
As for Ming Nianyue and Xiangjing, there is naturally another way to retreat.
……
When the banquet started, Qiao Shi didn't let Zhao Ruzhen serve it.
Facing those ladies at the banquet with a mouthful of Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Ming, Qiao Shi went back directly.
"Zhao Ruzhen has been demoted to a cheap concubine, all the ladies have a Mrs. Zhao, don't you want to be with her?"
One sentence made everyone stop talking, and they bowed their heads to eat one by one, and the silent could no longer be silent.
After the banquet, the ladies and ladies left one after another, but within half a day, all kinds of revelations spread all over the capital.
For example, the daughter recognized by the Prime Minister was arrogant and domineering, and as soon as she returned home, she forced her father's flat wife to be demoted to a cheap concubine.
Not only that, but also forced Ming Guogong and Ming Guogong to leave on the spot, severing the relationship between mother and daughter......
The rumors spread all over the capital, but Qiao Shi sat leisurely in front of Renyazi, and asked the two mothers-in-law to help select the next person.
Most of the subordinates who used to serve Ming Nianyue were demoted to Zhuangzi, and some of them used to serve well, Qiao Shi asked their opinions and brought some people back.
In addition, there is a lack of decorative items in the yard, which need to be purchased or taken from the storeroom.
The old lady of the Xiangfu's treasury will not open it, and Qiao Shi is not rare about the little things in the Xiangfu, but the dowry of Ming Nianyue must be returned.
The dowry list of Ming Nianyue's marriage is still kept, and the dowry list must be returned a lot according to this dowry list.
Qiao Shi didn't look for the old lady, she went directly to Xiangsheng, and if she didn't return it, she had time to make trouble......
The Prime Minister's Mansion is very lively every day, Qiao Shi sometimes goes to his mansion to refine pills and send them to the palace, and from time to time he will sneak to the East Palace, and he is familiar with Bai Ruo.
Bai Ruo is good at astrology, and Taoism is similar, Qiao often talks to Bai Ruo about some feng shui physiognomy.
Bai Ruo's lifespan in his previous life was not long, but he had a mysterious connection with Ning Ze's lifespan.
In this life, if Ning Ze can reach the top, Bai Ruo will also get some benefits.
After two months in a row, Qiao Shi went to Bai Ruo every time after that, and almost forgot about Ning Ze.
"I calculated that the prince had a catastrophe, but I was afraid that his life would be at stake."
"Oh, I know."
Qiao Shi stuffed a piece of snack in his mouth and nodded casually.
Bai Ruo was surprised.
"Do you know what it is?"
"You know, do you want to listen?"
Bai Ruo: "...... No ......."
He was afraid that after hearing this, he would die early, and it would be better not to know some things.
——
Three days later, that night, Qiao Shi secretly hid in the East Palace.
In the middle of the night, the East Palace was suddenly surrounded by the Praetorian Guards, and the leader of the Praetorian Guards came to search with a group of Praetorian Guards on order.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, someone reported that the East Palace had hidden a dragon robe, and Weichen was ordered to come and search."
The leader of the Praetorian Guard took out a token.
Looking at the token, Ning Ze's whole person was unusually quiet, and he didn't say a word, and directly asked people to go in and search.
Halfway through the search, the emperor also drove to the East Palace, and stood in the courtyard like this, and the emperor looked at the prince as if he were a stranger.
Qiao Shi saw everything in the dark, and since the emperor sent someone to search, he was already a little convinced of this search.
Ning Ze did not look directly at the emperor, and a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.
His father, who would stay by his side when he was sick when he was a child, is long gone.
Today's father is terrifyingly strange.
Rights, it's really love-hate and hate-hate.
"Back to the emperor, I found these ...... in the study of His Royal Highness the Prince"
