Chapter 58: Self-Reliance Portal Enters the Official Career

It's just that the queen's face has lost the gentle atmosphere of the past, and some of it is ruthless and domineering left by years of palace fighting.

"Princess Jin, are you guilty?"

Counting this time, Jiang Zimu has seen the queen three times, and she is still a stranger, and when she sees the queen's face and question, her scalp is numb for a while, and she hurriedly gets up and falls to the ground.

"The queen mother Mingjian, the concubine doesn't know what the crime is?"

Jiang Zimu really didn't know what law he had committed, he was very aggrieved, and he glanced at Chu Lanchen fiercely: You called me here, you were scolded, right?

The prince over there didn't look at her at all, and ate the pastries on the table as if nothing had happened.

What the queen wants to talk about today is a private matter, but what she is taking is a shelf of official business, she withdrew the maids on the left and right, and said, "You knew that your sister was pregnant, and you went to the palaces to persuade the princes to marry her, what do you mean?" ”

This one......

Jiang Zimu turned his head sideways and winked at Chu Lanchen: Your mother wants to clean me up, should you say something?

And Chu Lanchen felt thirsty after eating the pastry, and he was busy drinking tea and didn't have time to care about her.

Uh, Jiang Zimu hiccuped angrily, and simply said to the queen, "She is pregnant with the prince's child, and the prince is unwilling to marry her, so I can only persuade other princes to marry her, so that the child will be born with the surname Chu in the future." ”

Hearing these words, the queen was stunned, this daughter-in-law spoke so directly, she didn't need to be roundabout, she just retired from the maid palace, otherwise her face would be ugly.

But Chu Lanhe and Chu Lanchen are both her biological sons, and now for this matter, Chu Lanhe has been deprived of the power of the auxiliary government, and the brothers almost turned against each other, and the daughter-in-law in front of them is the culprit, so I have to say a few words about her.

"How do you know that the prince doesn't want to marry your sister, he just postponed the marriage, why do you want to do more."

Jiang Zimu was surprised, the queen protects the calf! That's not going to work.

"Why is the scheduled wedding date postponed? It's not because the prince covets the military power in the hands of Yang Hong, the king of Dingkang, and wants to marry the lord of Jingshu as a concubine, so as to accept Yang Hong for his own use. ”

Jiang Zimu ripped off the prince's last fig leaf.

Queen, "......"

The room was so quiet for a while that only the sound of Chu Lanchen gnawing on peaches.

After taking two bites, Chu Lanchen sat silently as his mother and princess stared at him with disgust.

"Chen'er, did you hear what your princess said? She's in vain. The queen was a little angry.

Chu Lanchen waved his hand casually, "How can it be so serious, Mu'er just told the truth." ”

Queen, "......"

Seeing Chu Lanchen standing on his side, Jiang Zimu raised his eyebrows, pretended to be annoyed and secretly staggered his thumb and index finger, twisted out a love heart, Chu Lanchen received the signal, and immediately crossed his fingers and smiled back to her.

"Ahem." The queen saw her son and daughter-in-law at her eyebrows and glanced at them.

Today, I was going to teach Jiang Zimu a few words, but I didn't think that my daughter-in-law would dare to say anything, and said that there was a son to support her, which was really annoying.

But the queen is virtuous in the world, even if her beloved son is sincere, she will not care about right and wrong, she knows that Chu Lanhe is out of character in the matter of Jiang Zitong, so she no longer talks about this topic.

After taking a sip of tea, she raised her hand to let Jiang Zimu sit back, and said to Chu Lanchen, "Chen'er, when are you going to marry Jingshu as a side concubine?" ”

Hearing this, Jiang Zimu immediately threw Chu Lanchen with an indescribable smile, "Heh! His Royal Highness the King of Jin, your peach blossom is here again, congratulations to you, concubine. ”

He said congratulations in his mouth, but in his heart he hoped that he would eat.

Chu Lanchen didn't pay attention to the yin and yang princess around him, and leaned back to the queen and said, "Queen Mother, it's not too late to discuss this matter after the sons and daughters come back from going to southern Xinjiang." ”

"You don't have to go to southern Xinjiang, your father has already arranged for someone else to go for you."

"Who?" Chu Lanchen didn't care much about marrying a side concubine, but he was very concerned about this person who wanted to replace him.

"The newly sealed General Zhenyuan, Li Zhi."

"Li Zhi?! Which Li Zhi? Hearing the name Li Zhi, Chu Lanchen and Jiang Zimu asked the queen almost at the same time.

"And which Li Zhi is the guard who has been following you." At the end, the queen seemed to be a little proud, and smiled at Chu Lanchen, "We are talented and ladylike, and the people we bring out are different." ”

This... I have never heard Li Zhi mention this, why was he quietly named General Zhenyuan? Jiang Zimu and Chu Lanchen were both surprised, so they asked the queen carefully, "Who recommended him?" ”

"Then who else, naturally it is his father-in-law, General Xu Jing, Lord Xu."

Chu Lanchen lowered his eyes, it was normal for his father-in-law to promote his son-in-law, but what he didn't understand was why Li Zhi suddenly thought of setting up his own door and stepping into his official career, so many wars at the border gate needed people to go, but he just wanted to replace himself.

However, it is better to be replaced by Li Zhi than by other princes, and Chu Lanchen will not say anything more.

The queen saw Chu Lanchen drinking tea and was silent, and said, "Chen'er, since you don't go to southern Xinjiang, you should prepare for marrying Jingshu." ”

After speaking, he looked at Jiang Zimu again, and said, "Mu'er, Jingshu is the only daughter of the eldest princess of Anping and the king of Dingkang, don't do the ridiculous things you did before." ”

"Yes."

Jiang Zimu replied, then looked sideways at Chu Lanchen, his pink lips moved slightly, and the voice he made was only audible to him: Didn't you say before that you wouldn't marry Yang Jingshu, why didn't you speak?

Chu Lanchen lightly opened her thin lips and replied to her: I am suffocated when I am unhappy and jealous!

Jiang Zimu threw a roll of his eyes: You are ruthless!

Next, I listened to the queen and Chu Lanchen directly skip asking for the name and discuss the date of the wedding.

Jiang Zimu had nothing to do, so he could only eat hard, and in less than half an hour, he ate five plates of jujube paste peanut cake, three plates of walnut almond cake, and two plates of sesame cake.

"Chen'er, then the wedding date between you and Jingshu is set at ......"

"Vomit...... ...... vomit"

Before the queen finished speaking, Jiang Zimu suddenly felt nauseous in her stomach and wanted to vomit.

I just ate so many snacks and drank a cup of milk tea that Chu Lanchen forced to her, and it was strange that she was not tired.

"Mu'er, what's wrong with you?" The queen said with concern.

"Queen Mother, she's a disease of joy, it's okay." Chu Lanchen rushed to answer, handed Jiang Zimu water, and gave her a look: Cooperate with me!

Jiang Zimu looked at his little eyes and smiled evilly: You want to use me as a shield again, no way.

"Queen, I ......"

A certain princess turned around and was about to open her mouth to defend herself, when she saw the queen sweeping away the haze just now, leaving the matter of marrying Yang Jingshu behind, and happily walked off the phoenix chair, her eyes were full of love, "Mu'er, when did you have it, why did you hide it from the queen mother!" ”

“… I just found out that I didn't want to hide it from you. ”

Seeing the queen's phoenix face and joy, she smiled so much that the corners of her eyes had beautiful crow's feet, and Jiang Zimu changed the words on her lips.

"Just had? What are these words, come and come, come and sit beside the queen mother, and listen to the queen mother tell you, this woman is pregnant......"

"Queen Mother, I think it's better for Erchen to take Mu'er back to the house to rest first." Without waiting for the queen to finish speaking, Chu Lanchen pulled Jiang Zimu and fled quickly.

Walking to no one's place, Jiang Zimu pouted and shook off Chu Lanchen's hand, "Did you bring me here today for these boring things?" ”

Chu Lanchen didn't answer her question, but handed a stack of silver tickets to her, "Take it and ......"

"Ah, is this my payment, haha, if there is anything you want me to cooperate with in the future, just say." Jiang Zimu was in a good mood when he took the silver ticket, and he counted it for two thousand taels.

Chu Lanchen is very generous, use these silver tickets to buy some jewelry and bring them back to modern times, and he will become a little rich woman.

Chu Lanchen saw that her pair of black eyes were about to stare into gold ingots, and shook his head, "It's not for you." ”

"Not for me? Do you want to tell other women that I am your princess here? Jiang Zimu warned, grabbed the silver ticket tighter with one hand, and grabbed Chu Lanchen's collar with the other.

"Jiang Zimu, you are bold, don't let go quickly." Chu Lanchen's eyebrows were frowned, and his face was annoyed for a while, this is ancient times, he is a dignified prince, how can people see him being eaten to death by his own princess.

And she will go back in the future, and he will stay here, live according to the social laws here, and keep the basic decency.

"So what are you doing?" Seeing a few palace people walking over, Jiang Zimu let go of his hand and saved him some face, but he still said ruthlessly, "I'll settle accounts with you when I go home." Say, "To whom is this silver ticket for?" ”

Chu Lanchen straightened his clothes and said, "One thousand for your sister, one thousand for the prince Liangdi." ”

Jiang Zimu was surprised, "Why give it to them?" ”

"Your father said that your sister was abused in the womb, don't you take it?"

Hearing such a reason, Jiang Zimu was a little embarrassed.

Although Jiang Zitong was not married to the crown prince, the dowry of the dowry was almost exhausted by the Jiang family, but it is a pity that those dowries caught up with Chu Lanhe and his house was raided, and the gold and silver were handed over to the state.

Last time, Jiang Changyu and Liu Shi came to ask her to send some silver taels to Jiang Zitong, but they were embarrassed to speak.

I didn't expect Chu Lanchen to look cold, and he thought about it so thoughtfully, but it is understandable to give it to Jiang Zitong, why do you want to give it to Prince Liangdi?

Chu Lanchen knew what she was thinking, so he said again, "Liangdi is the only one in the womb, and if you want your sister to live better, you have to take care of her." ”

Forehead... This man is so nice. Jiang Zimu lowered his head, "That's why you brought me into the palace today?" ”

"Hmm."

Chu Lanchen...... Kiss! ”

couldn't dodge, Chu Lanchenjun was rubbed on his face by a certain princess.

Chu Lanchen, "......"

Jiang Zimu didn't spend his own money and didn't feel distressed, so he dragged him to the palace.

But Chu Lanhe didn't seem to want to see them, knowing that they came in, he was still half-lying on the collapse and didn't get up, only Liangdi, who was sitting next to him and fanning him, got up lukewarmly and said hello, and shouted outside the door, "Look at the tea." ”

Following the sound of Jiang Zitong coming in with tea, he lowered his head and finished serving tea to Jiang Zimu and Chu Lanchen, and stood by Chu Lanhe's collapse, without looking at Jiang Zimu the whole time, and never said a word to her.

Jiang Zimu carefully observed her, and saw that in addition to being cautious, her face was ruddy and her body was plump, and she couldn't see where she had been abused.

She whispered to Chu Lanchen, "Eh, do you see where my sister is being abused?" I think she looks better than me, not like she has been abused. ”

"Fool, do you think that if you are abused, you must be hanged and beaten and scarred?"

After taking a sip of tea, Chu Lanchen sat closer to Jiang Zimu, and said, "Jiang Zimu was a noble lady in ancient times, how could she do these things of serving tea and pouring water to serve people." ”
