Chapter 51: Grounded for three months
The Imperial Study was the place where he handled government affairs, and only the prince was allowed to enter and leave freely on weekdays, and anyone else had to make a clear call and get his permission before entering.
Lian Ji's heart was slightly cold, and she quickly found an excuse, and after organizing some rhetoric in her mind, she said sincerely: "Your Majesty, the reason why the concubine came here in violation of the rules is that she really wants Your Majesty to call the shots. ”
Emperor Jin An glanced at Qi Changrong, who was at ease, and said lightly: "Concubine Ai is a smart person, she naturally knows what to say and what not to say, let me listen to it, and see what is so that you, who have always been smart, can't solve it." ”
The danger is enormous.
Lian Ji's heart fell to the bottom, and the only glimmer of hope was shattered.
She is indeed smart, and she also understands the meaning of Emperor Jin An's words, this matter must not involve the prince, if the prince's reputation is ruined, what awaits her will be boundless hell.
She bit her lip and said ruthlessly: "Zihuan is too unreasonable these days, and it is just a matter of disobeying discipline on weekdays, but today she dared to bully her thirteenth sister in front of so many people in the riding range, and the concubine really didn't know what to do, so she came to ask Your Majesty for advice." ”
Qi Zihuan turned his head to stare at Lian Ji violently, and exclaimed in disbelief: "Mother concubine! ”
Lian Ji raised her voice and said with hatred: "You shut up for me, is it reasonable for me to do something wrong?" Kneel here and wait for your father to fall. ”
Lian Ji was dripping in a cold sweat, and she only hoped that her stupid daughter would be smarter at this time and not say anything that shouldn't be said again.
There is also the prince eyeing the prince, and if they say the wrong word, endless trouble awaits their mother and daughter.
Although the prince is in the East Palace, he is also gentle and never interferes in anything in the harem, but she understands that once the prince intervenes, this matter will not be good.
Lian Ji knew very well that no matter how favored she was, she would not be able to compare to a finger of the prince of the East Palace.
Under Lian Ji's cruel gaze, Qi Zihuan was so frightened that he shut up.
Emperor Jin An said: "Regarding the matter of riding the shooting range, I have already learned from the palace that the twelve have no consciousness as the imperial sister, not only do not help the thirteen to relieve the siege, but also vainly try to make matters worse, and beg for a moment to be punished." ”
Lian Ji's heart rose to her throat.
"The prince's punishment is too light, and the three-day confinement does not make the twelve deeply realize that the royal majesty cannot be trampled on by anyone, according to me, it should be grounded for three months, and during the lockdown, Wuzhen's dictation is that no one is allowed to visit, including the concubine."
Once the mouth is opened, it will not be changed.
The matter of the riding shooting range was decided, and Ren Ji was full of defense, and he didn't dare to spit out a word at this time.
After teaching Qi Zihuan a lesson, Emperor Jin An looked at Qi Changrong again, and said dissatisfiedly: "You are the prince of the East Palace, the future lord of the world, how can you focus on inconsequential things?" What you should think about is how to govern the world, instead of wasting your mind on sisterly affairs, and if there is such a thing in the future, just return to it, and I will deal with it impartially. ”
Qi Changrong, who was in a daze, immediately came back to his senses when he heard these words, and the corners of his mouth turned upwards uncontrollably, this is the smile from the heart.
She responded with kindness, and there was no consciousness of being taught.
On the other hand, Lian Ji was so frightened by these words that she couldn't speak, and her whole face turned a degree whiter.
Knock on the mountain and shake the tiger.
Emperor Jin An seems to be teaching the crown prince a lesson, but in fact he is beating her, don't try to shake the prince's position.
The future prince will be the lord of the world, and the future of their mother and daughter is in the hands of the lord of the world.
A farce has finally come to an end.
Lian Ji exited the imperial study that made her breathless, and watched as her beloved daughter was pulled back to her bedroom by the palace people crying and screaming.
In the next three months, neither of them will be able to see each other again.
Qi Changrong walked behind, greeted the warm and soft sunlight, and opened his mouth with a light smile: "Lian Ji Niangniang's righteous killing of relatives really impresses Lonely." ”
Lian Ji stiffened and couldn't laugh.
Qi Changrong said again: "Lone thought that Lian Ji Niangniang led the twelve imperial sisters to come to tell Lone in front of his father, saying that Lone was the eldest brother. ”
Lian Ji hurriedly explained: "Your Highness is too worried, Zihuan has done something wrong, and he should be punished, and it has nothing to do with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." ”
Qi Changrong seemed to be relieved: "That's good, but if the Twelfth Imperial Sister is half as smart as Lian Ji Niangniang, today's things won't be like this." ”
"It's a pity, it's a pity."
She shook her head regretfully, no longer caring about Lian Ji's reaction, facing the sunset in the west, strode up to the palace road, Ji Fang saluted Lian Ji, hurriedly followed, and returned to her East Palace together.
In front of the cold palace of the imperial study, the surrounding palace people lowered their heads in interest, not daring to make a little movement, for fear of touching Lianji's moldy head.
I don't know how long they stood there, but when they looked up again, there was still Lian Ji in front of them.
The movement in the palace truthfully spread into the Taishi Mansion, Jiang Bowen put the letter into the letter box on the pigeon's leg, stroked the soft feathers on its body, and then threw the pigeon into the sky, and said softly: "Go." ”
Barto stood behind him and looked worriedly at the white carrier pigeon flying farther and farther away: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems to be different from before. ”
"It's really different." Jiang Bowen nodded, with a slight disdain in his words: "But, so what?" ”
In the end, he can't fight him, and he can't save the crumbling situation.
The building will fall, and no one will be able to lift it up.
Barto stopped talking, and from the moment the confident pigeon took to the sky, everything was on track.
Even the crown prince can't turn the tide.
It wasn't until he couldn't see the carrier pigeon anymore that Jiang Bowen slowly retracted his gaze: "What is You'er doing?" ”
Referring to the only young master in the house, Bato's face finally relaxed two points, and said with a smile: "Today, the young master is very responsible, he is not noisy, and he has been staying in his room to read books after returning to the house, I sent someone to take a look, and the young master is very hardworking." ”
Jiang Bowen's eyes gradually smiled, and he bowed his head slightly and said, "That's good, as long as that kid doesn't cause me trouble, I will be fearless." ”
In the ink courtyard of Taishifu, the desk stands by the window, and a large tree stands outside the window, blocking half of the eyes from the gate of the courtyard.
Jiang You sat there with his back straight, with a book in front of him, and although he didn't make a sound, his mouth was full of words.
The people in the Batoist faction stared at him, but they didn't make a difference, and thought that he was studying seriously.
But no one knew that at this time, his hands placed under the table were holding a pinball, and when he squeezed it hard, the muscles in his arms swelled instantly, making the excitement in his eyes deeper.
This is a gadget he picked up from Junchen's hand, and I heard that it can not only exercise arm strength, but also make fingers more flexible.
Not to mention anything else, as long as his arm strength goes up, the arrows he shoots will definitely be faster and more accurate.
In Changqing County, about 100 miles away from Beijing, an old man with gray hair walked briskly on the streets, carrying two pots of freshly beaten old wine in his hands, and was about to invite young friends to his home as guests.
On the way, I passed a tavern, the second child in the store was leaning on the door and yawning idly, looking lazy, seeing the old man passing by on the street, he called him to stop and said with a smile: "Why didn't Uncle Ma drink in our tavern today, but went out to drink by himself, is he tired of drinking in our tavern?" ”
Ma Zhengli waved his hand and smiled with a wrinkled face: "Little brother, where is this saying?" The wine in your tavern is famous in our county, and you can't get tired of drinking it for a lifetime, but today is different, there are guests at home, and I can't bring them to the stadium. ”
Xiao Er's mind moved, and he said, "Isn't that the guest the one who invited you to do business recently?" ”
"Exactly, exactly, it's not too early now, I'll go home first and prepare the snacks, and I'll come to the tavern to talk to you another day."
Xiao Er smiled freely and waved goodbye: "Okay, then I'll wait for Uncle Ma to come." ”
After the little episode, Ma Zhengli's pace was two points faster, don't look at him over fifty, like a young man.
The small county town is very lively, on the way to meet a number of familiar faces, Ma Zhengli greeted them one by one, he is a well-known rich man in Changqing County, he has lived here for more than ten years, and has also done business for more than ten years, where the grain can be seen.
Xu is the people in the county were too enthusiastic, and when Ma Zhengli finally returned to his door, he carried two more fish in his hand and a pound of beans for wine.
"Xiaocui, take these two fish and deal with them, and then use them to entertain guests later, and then go to Zhang Butcher's house to cut two catties of the best meat and fry it back.
Ma Zhengli shouted in the direction of the kitchen, and after a while, there was an answer from inside, and a woman dressed in linen cloth and nearly thirty years old walked out, wiped her hands on the gray apron first, and then took the things in Ma Zhengli's hand.
"Dad, our family also has this condition, it is a little savings, but when we talk about business later, don't slap your swollen face and become fat, the achievements of the business are done, even if you can't do it, we are not short of those few silvers."
Ma Cui admonished beside him, Ma Zhengli waved his hand, and said: "Buying and selling is not benevolent, don't worry, your father is measured." ”
Hearing his promise, Ma Cui was slightly relieved, and was no longer as worried as before, for fear that Ma Zhengli would lose his entire family in order to do business.
That night, the Ma family's house was in full swing, and the sound of punching was heard from time to time in the main hall.
"Uncle Ma, we always go south and north in business, this time it's a big business, there is a dignitary in Beijing who takes a fancy to your farm and wants to establish a supply chain with you to supply meat for the restaurant under his hands."
Ma Zhengli was drunk, his cheeks were slightly red, and his eyes were slightly drunk, however, when he listened to the word Shangjing in that person's words, his whole person was like being drunk as a stick, and he immediately sobered up.
He didn't even think about it, and said directly: "No, it's too far to go to Beijing, and my old bones can't withstand the bumps." ”
