After Qiu Zhi got Xi Jiang's permission, he waited as fast as he could on the road that Meng Changqi had to pass to go down to the next dynasty.

At this time, the ministers came out of the main hall one after another.

However, the crowd in the lower dynasty is clearly distinguished, and many people roll their eyes to the people around them, and they don't like it.

Cheng Hanwen, a middle-aged man with a two-inch beard and an elegant face, said: "Lord Rong doesn't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive, so this requires both military salaries and army expansion. The household department can't even afford to pay the officials, where will the money come from to expand the army? ”

Half a meter next to Cheng Hanwen, a tall and sturdy bearded man replied: "Don't expand the army, don't pay you?" Then the barbarians in the north, the Wu Dynasty in the west, and the Jin Kingdom in the south, you can fight it yourself! Master Cheng's strategy is unparalleled, and he must be invincible. ”

Dahan is the general Rong Kaishan of the dynasty, and he is the second military general after the general Meng Changqi. In the military general group, he is the number two person.

"You ......" Cheng Hanwen was angry, but helpless, "Anyway, I don't agree, the household department has no money." ”

"That's all you can do." Rong Kaishan sneered and took a step first, leaving Cheng Hanwen with a blue face and a thick neck.

The minister of the civil and official department on the side comforted: "Lord Cheng, as the saying goes, when a show meets a soldier, it is unreasonable. What kind of reasoning do you have with a soldier, don't be angry. ”

Cheng Hanwen suppressed the anger in his heart and made another note in the small book.

In this regard, everyone is not surprised.

The civil and military have not treated each other for a long time. This kind of thing happens from time to time.

There was no excitement to watch, and the crowd quickly dispersed. Meng Changqi and his son calmly turned around and left, not much of a touch.

Qiu Zhi, who was waiting on the side of the road, saw Meng Changqi and his son coming, hurriedly trotted in front of the two, and saluted: "Master, young master." ”

"What's wrong?" Meng Changqi asked.

Qiu Zhi's face was embarrassed, Meng Chang understood and followed Qiu Zhi to the root of the wall on the side.

"Say it! What's up? ”

"Master, Miss is pregnant, almost three months." Qiu Zhi's voice was very low, and he changed the difficult color just now, and he was a little happy and beaming.

"What! Wan'er is pregnant? Meng Huaijin exclaimed in a low voice, and then the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and his eyebrows were happy.

Originally, when the draft entered the palace, they did not agree. But Meng Wan'er was hard-hearted, and if she had to enter the palace, she could only obey Meng Wan'er's wishes. Now that Meng Wan'er is pregnant with the emperor's heir, it can be regarded as a good result.

"Yes, young master. Before, the young lady was afraid of being assassinated, so she kept it a secret, and even His Majesty didn't know about it. "Qiu Zhi has nothing to hide.

"Okay, we know, don't leak this matter for the time being, and send an experienced grandmother to take a look at it tomorrow." Meng Changqi, who had been silent, said, "Take good care of Miss during this time, and let Wan'er not worry about other things." ”

Qiu Zhi nodded and respectfully stepped back to leave.

"Dad, Wan'er has been around for almost three months, I'm afraid I won't be able to hide it for long." Meng Huaijin was a little worried, the open guns and hidden arrows between the concubines in the palace were no less than those in the court.

It is said that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, but in fact, the two are inseparable, and the various factions have raised a lot of spies in the palace to spread the news.

"If you can't hide it, you have to hide it, this child is very important. His Majesty's attitude towards the court was ambiguous and ambiguous. It's not that simple. Meng Changqi sighed lightly and walked towards the outside of the palace, and Meng Huaijin hurriedly followed.

……

Meng Wan'er has been in the palace for two years, and she has favored the harem, and even the current queen's attitude towards Meng Wan'er is very polite.

Meng Wan'er and Zhang Minting are very close, and they are also a little estranged from Huang Qiyue and Chen Lanqing. Zhang Minting is just a noble person now, Meng Wan'er is already a third-level palace concubine, and there is only the queen above Meng Wan'er.

There is no imperial concubine in the harem, but everyone speculates that Meng Wan'er is likely to be promoted to imperial concubine within a few years.

Huang Qiyue and Chen Lanqing are both concubines, and they are named Concubine Zhuang and Concubine Shu respectively.

Xi Jiang gathered Meng Wan'er's memories, and after familiarizing himself with the surrounding environment, he took out two exquisite porcelain vases from a delicate wooden box, opened them and smelled them, and made sure that no one had touched them, so he sat on the soft collapse and waited for Qiu Zhi to come back.

In this palace, Qiu Zhi is the only person Meng Wan'er can trust.

Meng Wan'er was born in a family of military generals, so Meng Wan'er and Qiu Zhi are both good at martial arts, and Qiu Zhi's martial arts level is not low, otherwise she would not be qualified to accompany the Meng family's favored Miss Yan.

About a cup of tea later, Qiu Zhi returned.

Qiu Zhi saw that there were other palace maids beside Xi Jiang, but she just gave Xi Jiang a vague look, and then stopped mentioning the pregnancy.

"Qiu Zhi, send these two porcelain vases to Sister Lan and Qi Yue." Xi Jiang pointed to the porcelain bottle on the table and said.

Qiu Zhi saw the two familiar white jade porcelain bottles on the table, and said uncertainly: "Niangniang, is it the Xianglu Pill?" ”

Xi Jiang nodded slightly.

"Okay, the slave maid will go, the two ladies are enjoying the flowers in the garden, and the slave will be back soon." Qiu Zhi said happily.

There are so many happy events today!

The young lady finally wanted to rebuild the old relationship with the two mothers, and she felt that the Min noble person was very annoying, and she was always playing around and saying bad things about the two mothers.

"You said the two ladies are in the Imperial Garden?" Xi Jiang looked at Qiu Zhi and asked.

"That's right! On the way here, I met Qiaoxiang and Angelica Angelica. Saying that, Qiu Zhi was a little angry, presumably because he was scolded by the two of them on the way.

"Bring the things, let's go see the two mothers." The corners of Xi Jiang's good-looking lips twitched slightly, and he walked out.

Qiu Zhi picked up the porcelain vase, gave the other palace attendants and maidservants a warning look that they were not allowed to follow, and followed out.

The crowd was so frightened that no one dared to follow.

In Meng Wan'er's Jardine Palace, because Meng Wan'er trusted Qiu Zhi very much, she was very majestic in front of all the slaves.

And in the past two years in the palace, Qiu Zhi has also learned a lot of ways to teach people, plus before entering the palace, Mrs. Meng was afraid that her daughter would be bullied, so she asked the old lady who went out of the palace to train Qiu Zhi for a period of time.

Qiu Zhi doesn't know all the twists and turns in the palace, but he knows a lot, at least some of the yin methods basically can't escape Qiu Zhi's eyes.

When Xi Jiang arrived, Huang Qiyue and Chen Lanqing didn't know what they were talking about, with a trace of sadness on their faces.

Seeing that Xi Jiang was coming, the two hurriedly kept silent.

As soon as Huang Qiyue saw Xi Jiang, she was angry, and she came up and said, "Yo! Who is this? The concubine is extremely noble, not afraid of being bumped in! ”

Li Lanqing's eyes were a little detached when he looked at Xi Jiang, but his eyes were full of concern.

As soon as they met, they were sneered at, and Xi Jiang was not angry.

Because half a year ago, Meng Wan'er used this excuse to lose face for Huang Qiyue and Li Lanqing. At that time, Meng Wan'er didn't know which tendon was wrong, she trusted Zhang Minting very much, and felt that Huang Qiyue and Li Lanqing approached her, which was a good idea.

Xi Jiang smiled lightly, and walked to the pavilion where the two of them rested, Huang Qiyue hurriedly retreated to Li Lanqing's side, and looked at Xi Jiang angrily, like an angry little bun.

"No matter how noble you are, you are also the sisters of Sister Lan and Qi Yue!" Xi Jiang sat down and said shamelessly.

Huang Qiyue pursed her mouth, "We don't dare to be sisters with the concubine." ”
