Chapter 196: It's none of my business
"More than that."
Qi Jin nodded, and said, "She is still the fiancΓ©e of her senior brother." β
Jiang Yushui took a deep breath.
"That'...... Does my master know? β
Qi Jin shook her head slowly.
Jiang Yushui raised his eyebrows, "You're not going to tell him?" β
"Let them settle the matter between them."
Qi Jin's non-caring tone sounded really underwhelming.
However, Jiang Yushui didn't want to get involved in other people's feelings, and when he said this, he actually felt that it made sense.
ββ
After listening to the gossip, Qi Jin began to talk to her about business.
Above the court, there has always been a division of civil and military factions, and Beicang is the same.
Now the court is divided into two factions, headed by Prime Minister Su Zhihui and Zhenguo General Wang Zhuo.
Jiang Yushui muttered in a low voice: "It's the prime minister surnamed Su again......"
The Wenchen faction led by Su Zhihui decided to support the new emperor soon after Qi Song ascended the throne, and the interests of these people were intertwined, many of them sent their daughters into the palace as concubines and concubines, and Qi Song did not refuse, they were willing to send him to receive all the orders, and the rain and dew were all wet, and they changed people to stay overnight every night.
So the ministers didn't know what kind of hint they received, and the people who had doubts about his throne turned to support him, and Su Zhihui and others did their best to assist him, turning a blind eye to the various bad deeds of this young emperor's idleness and inaction, and extremely conniving.
It was the first time that Jiang Qiushui had heard that someone had made the emperor like this, and he couldn't help but be amazed.
Although there are occasional frictions and secret fights between these ministers who support Qi Song, they are surprisingly consistent externally, and they have already identified Qi Song in their hearts, and the current Prince Jin is vigilant against the former prince who returned from Nanse as a hostage, for fear that he will rob Qi Song of the throne.
And the military generals led by Wang Zhuo have been trying in vain to establish themselves as kings, most of them have made great achievements, and they hold military power, as early as when the first emperor was alive, and now the new emperor has just ascended the throne, and he is still immature, and he has not given birth to an heir, when will he not do it at this time?
As for Qi Jin's return to Beicang, they are happy to see it, and even desperately hope that the two brothers will fight, so that they can enjoy the benefits of the fisherman when they are both defeated.
The most contradictory thing is Su Zhihui's faction, on the one hand, they don't want to get close to Qi Jin and be more wary of him, but on the other hand, they don't want Qi Jin to stand on Wang Zhuo's faction and be their enemy.
Jiang Qiushui looked at him meaningfully and said jokingly: "What does Your Highness think, are you interested in rebelling?" β
Qi Jin really rubbed her chin, pretending to be seriously considering.
After a while, he chuckled and asked, "You want to be the queen?" β
Hearing this, Jiang Yushui's face changed slightly, and he shook his head, "I don't want to at all." β
How many people aspire to the status, but she dismisses it.
Her evasive attitude made Qi Jin laugh, and he said, "It's just right, I'm not interested in that position." β
The two hit it off and tacitly changed the subject.
ββ
When Jiang Qiushui came to the prince's mansion prepared by Qi Song for Qi Jin, he was shocked by this dilapidated and poor mansion, and he couldn't believe his eyes.
The subordinates carried their luggage to the house one by one and passed by her.
She stood at the door and didn't move, and Qi Jin didn't urge, quietly accompanied her, not sad or happy in her eyes, as if she had expected such a scene a long time ago.
Jiang Qiushui grinded his teeth, endured and endured, and then suppressed the desire to scold.
However, she endured it, but someone did not hide it.
Ruan Yuan jumped out of the carriage, walked to her side, looked up with her at the four big characters of Prince Jin's Mansion on the plaque at the door, was silent for a while, and asked quietly: "Is Beicang too poor or Qi Song too picky?" β
Jiang Qiushui laughed lukewarmly twice, and turned his head to look at her, "What do you say?" β
"Tsk," Ruan Yuan understood, and opened his mouth to scold, "That kid is really not a thing!" β
As soon as he spoke, a young man's magnetic voice came from behind him.
"What are you talking about?!"
Even though this voice was different from what he remembered, Ruan Yuan still subconsciously heard that it was Qi Song's voice, and suddenly a spirit was excited, and the feeling of being caught red-handed behind his back came to his heart.
She turned around slowly, and the face of the brocade-robed young man Ruyu jumped in front of her, compared to two years ago, he was much taller, his facial features were completely expanded, his sword eyebrows and phoenix eyes, his nose and lips were thin, although he looked smiling at the moment, he couldn't help but feel cold.
Ruan Yuan realized in an instant that the young man in front of him was already the Ninety-Five Emperor above 10,000 people.
It's an existence that is getting farther and farther away from her.
She restrained her look.
Qi Song's gaze quickly swept over her, and when he touched her restrained expression, he paused, and subconsciously pursed his lower lip, his already mean expression added a little impatience, and he looked like he was extremely bad, as if he would be angry in the next second.
Even Jiang Yushui felt that this kid hadn't seen him for two years, and he had become a lot more cold and strange, and he was subconsciously silent.
So for a while, no one paid attention to Qi Song's words.
Qi Song's eyes gradually darkened, and he was about to get angry when he saw it.
Seeing this, the father-in-law beside him hurriedly spoke first, and scolded with a sharp voice: "Bold! When you see Your Majesty, you don't kneel down and salute! Your Majesty asks you Diao people, how dare you not answer?! β
Liang Gonggong remembered that the last person to speak just now was Ruan Yuan, and the last sentence was completely stared at her, and the domineering momentum was very arrogant.
Qi Song subconsciously twisted his eyebrows, glanced at him, and seemed to want to say something when he moved his lips, but finally held back.
"Diao Min?"
Qi Jin chuckled and asked.
Facing his calm and waveless eyes, Father-in-law Liang was inexplicably timid.
Qi Jin saluted Qi Song as a monarch and minister, and when the others saw this, they also saluted.
After getting up, Qi Jin suddenly asked: "Father-in-law Liang, this king is Diao Min, what are you?" β
He seemed to be sincerely asking Father-in-law Liang for advice, but the oppression between his words made Father-in-law Liang sweat coldly.
Liang Gonggong's heart jumped suddenly, and he took a step back pretending to be scared, hiding behind Qi Song, "Your Majesty, look at this ......"
Qi Song raised his hand to signal him to be calm, lifted his lips and smiled, his eyes were full of provocation, and he looked directly at Qi Jin, "Gonggong Liang is right, he doesn't salute when he sees me, and he doesn't answer when he hears my question, either he doesn't take me in his eyes, or he doesn't know how to be polite." β
I haven't seen him for two years, and this kid is good at his kung fu.
Jiang Qiushui sighed in his heart.
Ever since he saw that this was not much bigger than the mansion where Qi Jin lived in Nanse before, but the old so-called prince's mansion was full of it, Jiang Yushui was holding his breath in his heart, and he was worried that he had nowhere to go, when he saw him come to the door and humiliate them, he was so angry that his head was about to smoke.
