Hearing this, the steward wiped the tears oozing from the corners of his eyes, looked at the dignified and bright-looking monarch's mother with some embarrassment, and accused: "It's the old slave who has lost his temper, and he shouldn't cry on such a good day." ”

Xie Tanyuan said unhurriedly: "Where the love goes, the housekeeper has heartfelt affection for Junmen, and this is a true expression of feelings." ”

"Thank you, ma'am, for your understanding."

The steward laughed again, and for the lady in front of him, how to look at it and how satisfied, said courteously:

"Knowing that Madame is coming back, Qiwu Courtyard has already been cleaned up, and the furniture and other small things have been replaced with new ones, if Madame doesn't like anything, just send someone to tell the slave that there are other styles in the storehouse."

After offering incense and suing the ancestors, the group went to the main courtyard.

Along the way, General Jun carefully explained the situation in the mansion, and it seemed that there was only the hostess in front of him in his eyes, and he couldn't wait to explain everything at once.

Xie Tanyuan listened quietly, and when Steward Jun was short of words or didn't know how to describe it, he asked a sentence from time to time, guiding Steward Jun to continue, and there was no impatience at half.

The deserted Qiwu courtyard has changed dramatically.

Even though he had already known from Steward Jun's words that Qiwu Courtyard might have undergone unexpected changes, when he saw the flower garden that occupied half of the courtyard, the corners of Jun Chen's mouth twitched uncontrollably.

However, for this flower garden, the steward Jun was very satisfied, and said comfortably: "I don't know what flowers Mrs. likes, the old slave has prepared some carefully, the flower garden has a special person to take care of, no need for Mrs. to waste God, when the flowers bloom, Mrs. just sit in the study or under the eaves, enjoy the beautiful scenery in the courtyard." ”

Following the sight of Steward Jun, Jun Chen couldn't help but raise his hand and stroke his forehead.

He clearly remembered that the direction of the study window was not on this side.

In order to please the future housewife, the steward Jun opened a new window.

Junchen: "......"

He has never enjoyed such treatment in his life.

On the contrary, the main owner, Xie Tanyuan, did not feel that the butler Jun was moving the crowd, and smiled and praised: "The old housekeeper is still careful, and when the flowers bloom in the future, you can follow the fragrance of the wind pillow." ”

"Madame likes it."

His work was appreciated, and the steward was naturally very proud, and this pride was enthusiastic about the changes in the entire Qiwu Courtyard.

Hearing the end, Junchen was helpless.

However, if it is for the sake of the person in front of you, it is also normal.

Junchen didn't speak, let the housekeeper talk to himself for a long time, until the beginning of noon, the kitchen man brought the meal, and then he couldn't finish his mouth.

Zhou Shiren, who couldn't interject at all, finally found an opportunity to speak, shouted at a table of sumptuous delicacies, and said to Steward Jun half-jokingly:

"Housekeeper, we have lived together for decades, why do we have a coarse tea and light meal when we are at home, and when Mrs. comes, it is chicken, duck and fish, all kinds of delicacies?"

Hearing this, Steward Jun smiled gently: "The girl's family always has to be taken care of, if Gongzi Zhou is a girl, the old slave will be taken care of like this since he was a child." ”

Zhou Shiren: "...... That's still it. ”

He is very happy to be a man, and it is really a bit unreasonable to change his gender and wear women's clothes for such a delicious meal or two.

After the meal, there were many greetings and invitations sent to the general's mansion, all of which were handed over by the wives of the main families of various powerful people in Shangjing.

Either this one has a tea party, or another one has a flower-viewing banquet, which is annoying.

Looking at the stack of posts on the table, Junchen frowned and said, "Don't worry about them. ”

"That's not going to work."

Sitting behind the bookcase, Xie Tanyuan smiled faintly, lowered his eyes to look at the content and signature of the post, and said without raising his head: "Since I am Mrs. Jun, I can't avoid the entertainment that should let Mrs. Jun play, I didn't have time before, but now I finally have time, so I naturally want to let the general see and understand." ”

Jun Chen didn't know why: "What do you see?" ”

"Let's see, what is a lady's entertainment." Xie Tanyuan raised his eyes to look at him, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "The interactions between women are sometimes more complicated than those of men, and their meaning and effect are not necessarily as good as yours. ”

Junchen pinched his eyebrows: "I don't quite understand." ”

"The general is a man, so naturally he doesn't understand."

Jun Chen blinked innocently, and suddenly asked, "The prince is the prince of a country, why do you understand?" ”

"Because whether it is Qi Changrong or Xie Tanyuan, it will not disappoint."

If you are a man, you must be the best among men.

If you are a woman, you must be the best among women.

Jun Chen, who barely understood how powerful Qi Changrong's heart was, paused, the joke on his face dissipated, and asked seriously, "Madam really wants to go?" ”

"I don't want to." Xie Tanyuan replied very simply: "I am the wife of the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses, and I am the wife of the first rank of the court, in terms of identity and rank, I am much more noble than them, and if I want to see them, it should not be me who goes to see them." ”

Seeing her like this, Junchen was also happy to cooperate: "Then according to Madame's wishes, what should I do about this?" ”

Hearing this, Xie Tanyuan replied in a kind manner: "It's simple, after all, they want to see me, not I want to see them, like this, if I don't want to surrender my identity, I just need to hold a tea party and a flower viewing banquet, presumably they will rush to participate." ”

"Madame so confident?" Jun Chen's eyes fell on the invitation sticker in her hand: "Madame has already decided, why do you still want to look at them?" ”

Xie Tanyuan was quite helpless: "I just want to see how those ladies write." ”

Jun Chen couldn't help but smile and looked at her with his chin propped up: "Do you understand?" ”

"Understood."

Xie Tanyuan smiled at Jun Chenying: "Please also ask the general to serve the ink." ”

Hearing this, Jun Chen got up and held the ink strip in his hand: "My honor." ”

In the end, it was the prince of the East Palace, and the handwriting must be very noticeable, so Xie Tanyuan changed his left hand to write, and the unfamiliar handwriting overflowed on the paper.

It happened to be the birthday of Xie Tanyuan's household registration.

Soon, the news that the monarch's mother was going to hold a birthday banquet spread.

Steward Jun was ready lively.

Because there are no female slaves in the Jun's mansion, in order to hold this birthday banquet and let everyone know that the monarch's mother and mother cannot be neglected, the Jun housekeeper personally went to Yaxing to buy a few beautiful girls and served Xie Tanyuan.

Fortunately, Xie Tanyuan had a female secret guard brought out of the palace by his side, so he would not seem in a hurry.

……

When holding a birthday banquet, Xie Tanyuan wore a thin veil under the pretext of having a small pox, which caused the noble ladies in Beijing to still not know her appearance in Lushan.

Even so, no one dares to say more than half a sentence on the surface, even if the secret gossip continues.

The half-moon rest day passed in a blink of an eye.

When he returned to the palace, Xie Tanyuan became Qi Changrong again, and there was no trace of Xie Tanyuan.

At the beginning of April, Rong Mu, who had been in Chen Guo for nearly a year, finally returned from Chen Guo and entered the East Palace and knelt in front of Qi Changrong to say goodbye.

"My subordinates have seen His Royal Highness the Prince."

"No courtesy." Qi Changrong raised his hand, helped him in the air, and asked, "You returned from the battlefield, how is the battle situation?" ”

Rong Mu got up and spoke directly: "Congratulations to Your Highness, since the news of the demonic ambush came back to the Chen Kingdom, except for a few Chen people who couldn't see the situation clearly, most of the people of the Chen Kingdom opened the city to greet each other, and the battle situation was excellent, which was beneficial to the Jin army, presumably it won't be long before Your Highness can hear the good news from the army." ”

"It seems that the situation is easier than Gu imagined." Qi Changrong breathed a sigh of relief: "Even you said so." ”

Rong Mu said respectfully: "Yes, Your Highness is about to get what you want." ”

Rong Mu never doubted Prince Changrong's ability.

Not before, and not now.

I wanted to let him sneak into Chen Guo behind Chen Sansi, and then borrow the guilt of the previous Chen Emperor for Chen Sansi, use Chen Sansi's remaining strength, break into the Chen court, and bury one secret chess piece after another, all of which are the calculations of His Royal Highness the Prince.

Even if he is thousands of miles away, this person's control of the overall situation has reached an extremely terrifying level.

Yu Qi Changrong, Rong Mu admired it all in his heart: "At this moment, my subordinates finally understood why His Highness rejected his subordinates' proposal to assassinate Chen Guoyoudao a few months ago. ”

In November last year, the extent of Chen Guo's demon dao exploiting the people's fat and people's ointment was very terrifying, and for the so-called 'shrine', the city of Chen Guo was buried in a sea of fire, and none of the 10,000 people in the city escaped.

At that time, Rong Mu's murderous intent towards Chen Guo's demon path was already unshakable, but because he was on a mission, he couldn't act on his own, so he sent a letter back to His Highness.

Unfortunately, last year's His Royal Highness Rong did not agree.

At that time, he didn't know what he meant, but now, he suddenly understood.

Seeing that he suddenly realized and felt guilty, Qi Changrong looked at him appreciatively, but reminded him:

"Rong Mu, although you are the person with the strongest execution ability in the heavenly team, you should also know that those who do tasks should not be hindered by selfish desires."

Rong Mu's heart was gloomy: "My subordinates understand that if my subordinates want to kill someone one day, it shouldn't be because my subordinates want to kill, but because they have to kill because of the task." ”

"If only you understood."

Qi Changrong said casually: "Just like Chen Guoshi, since both horizontal and vertical are one death, you should think more carefully about how to make his death more valuable." ”

Hearing this, Rong Mu Zhengse said: "What His Highness said is that the demon Dao can use his death to become a game in His Highness's chessboard, and it can be regarded as the last good thing he has done for the world." ”

Qi Changrong glanced at Rong Mu with the eyes of 'teachable' and nodded.

After a moment of silence, Rong Mu suddenly took out a seal from his sleeve pocket and respectfully handed it to Qi Changrong.

Qi Changrong glanced at it, but didn't reach out to pick it up: "What is this?" ”

"This is the seal of King Chung." Rong Mu whispered, with a bit of loss in his tone, and said: "Before King Zhong died, let his subordinates bring this thing back and hand it over to His Highness, King Zhong said that between His Highness and him, in the end, he lost, and he admitted to the gamble." ”

At the beginning, Chen Sansi just wanted to find justice for the injustices he experienced, and gave the funeral of the previous Emperor Chen openly.
