Chapter 65: Seize the Opportunity
The right time, the right place and all the people are on Qi Changrong's side, and she is the culprit who leads to the marriage.
If she hadn't been pushing the boat in secret, the decree of marriage would not have come down so quickly.
And now for the sake of his only apprentice, he is going to open his mouth to ask the culprit, who can know how aggrieved he is in his heart.
Junchen twisted his eyebrows, and his mood was extremely unhappy.
"Lone doesn't want to do anything, originally Lone didn't want to be nosy, but since General Jun opened his mouth to ask for it, for the sake of General Jun's feelings, Lone can't sit idly by and ignore this matter."
Zhou Shiren listened on the sidelines, with mixed feelings, just now he persuaded so many good words, but as a result, no one birds birded him.
Junchen only mentioned it slightly, and the people were relieved, and they didn't even have the conditions to help.
This person is really different.
"However, before helping, there is one thing that must be explained, the marriage between Twelve and Jiang Da is ironclad, and no one can change it."
She said meaningfully: "After all, not everyone is like General Jun, who can resist the decree several times and be unscathed. ”
Jun Chen pursed his lips silently, looking awkward.
Qi Changrong held the teacup in his hand, his white and tender index finger slowly rubbed the mouth of the cup, and there were waves on the surface of the tea.
With her movements, Junchen's eyes were involuntarily attracted to the past.
Suddenly, he thought of the tragic scene of that day when she held the green leaves in her hand and ravaged the green leaves.
Also, the feeling of that hand touching his face.
For a while, Junchen felt very strange in his heart.
It's not annoying, but it's not much of a pleasure.
This is also the reason why the atmosphere between him and Qi Changrong will be so awkward when they meet today.
How can you let go of something in your heart?
Jun Chen withdrew his eyes, moved his Adam's apple up and down, and said slowly: "Your Highness, rest assured, I am not the kind of person who does not know how to be measured, and I will not let His Highness be disrespectful for Jiang Da's resistance." ”
With his assurance, Qi Changrong seemed to be relieved, and then said: "In this way, it is indeed not difficult to delay time." ”
"What is Your Highness's plan?" Junchen asked.
"I can't talk about Gao Ji, there is a way to make a decision, the marriage has always been the responsibility of the Ministry of Rites, and the selection of good days and auspicious days is handled by Qin Tianjian, as long as these two places are taken care of, everything will be solved." Qi Changrong smiled lightly and played with the teacup in his hand.
Zhou Shiren glanced at Jun Chen, knowing that he didn't know much about the Ministry of Rites and the Qin Tianjian, and said for him: "This Qin Tianjian has always been withdrawn and only obeys His Majesty's orders, and Wang Zheyan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is most afraid of trouble, and it is even more difficult to deal with them. ”
Therefore, Qin Tianjian is a difficult bone to gnaw, and the same is true for the Ministry of Rites.
Qi Changrong said calmly: "Coincidentally, Gu only dealt with Wang Zheyan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, a while ago, and had a good relationship with him, and gave him a set of good tea sets, maybe he can say a word or two." ”
This is modestly said.
Qi Changrong has a transcendent status, who dares to refuse her mouth?
In addition, Wang Zheyan is timid and afraid, and he definitely doesn't want to provoke a behemoth like Shangdong Palace.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't intend to use his power to oppress people?" Jun Chen raised his eyebrows and asked directly.
"Lone is not that kind of person, Lone has always been reasonable, and everyone likes to move with reason." She didn't seem to hear the sarcasm in Jun Chen's words.
"Yes, I thought His Highness was ......" Jun Chen wanted to speak and stopped, but the second half of the words didn't come out in the end.
What else could he think?
Of course, she thought that Qi Changrong was never reasonable, and she didn't look like a reasonable person.
Zhou Shiren snorted awkwardly: "You can't judge everything with 'I think', the general thinks too much." ”
What's going on?
Junchen has a gentle temper in life, and rarely fights people like this, how can he be like eating firecrackers today, and he will blow it up if he doesn't light it.
"The lonely and ugly words are talked about first, for Jiang Taishi's people, he can't look down on the lonely one, he doesn't like Lao Tzu, and he won't help his son for no reason."
"So ......"
"The cost of dotting is at your own expense."
Zhou Shiren's mouth was open, and he didn't know what to say.
This is the right thing to ask them for money.
Junchen also stared at Qi Changrong for a while, as if he had never known her.
To tell the truth, the prince who loves money so much, he met him for the first time.
In the face of their explicit scrutiny, Qi Changrong's face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he was also angry: "The East Palace spends according to the palace system, and there is no extra money. ”
The most important thing is that everything in the East Palace is recorded in the roster, and no matter what is missing, it will be noticed.
Zhou Shiren couldn't help but say: "The two concubines beside His Highness, regardless of their clothes and jewelry, are all of the best color......
"That's different." Qi Changrong waved his hand: "Shi Chun and Shi Xia are the women of the Lonely East Palace, and Jiang Da is the son of the Lonely Enemy, can this be compared?" ”
It means that she comes to pet her woman.
As for her enemies...... She didn't slash Jiang Daqian with a thousand knives.
"What does Your Highness want, gold or silver?"
This was asked by Jun Chen, and he never counted the yellow and white things in his heart, but he only remembered that there seemed to be a lot of them in the private treasury in the house.
Qi Changrong shook his head, looking at Jun Chen's eyes, he couldn't help but show a trace of disgust.
Is she that vulgar?
The dignified prince of the East Palace, if he lacks anything, he will not lack gold and silver.
"Then what does Your Highness want?"
"Lone remembers that the Jun family has repeatedly attacked various cities, and has looted a lot of good things from them, except for those that have been filled into the treasury, presumably the Jun family has left some left, and Lone wants a set of tea sets."
The original set was given to Wang Zheyan by her, but she has not found a replacement so far.
The things that can enter the treasury of the Jun family are of course good things, even if they are not as good as the treasury.
Jun Chen glanced at Qi Changrong, but he didn't refuse: "Your Highness has a good eye." ”
If you look at the things in his house, can you have a bad eye?
Qi Changrong's eyes lit up, knowing that there was a play, he coughed: "The matter of delaying the marriage will be handed over to Lone, and Lone's tea set will be handed over to the general, I hope we will not be disappointed when the time comes." ”
It was simply decided.
Zhou Shiren was stunned for a moment, it turned out that today's Royal Highness the Prince, can he simply buy it with a set of tea sets?
He felt like he had learned another trick.
A gentle breeze blew, waves rose on the lake, and a small boat slowly rowed in their direction.
And the person sitting on the boat was Zhao Yueqiu, the daughter of Zhao Li.
Jun Chen looked up, his eyes fell on Qi Changrong, and his eyes suddenly became a little gloomy: "You told her?" ”
There is such a thing as coincidence, Junchen never believes in it, there are not so many coincidences in the world, and most of the coincidences are intentional.
He will find Qi Changrong to discuss matters, and only Zhou Shiren knows.
Zhou Shiren was stunned and said: "Miss Zhao asked casually, and I answered casually, I didn't expect her to follow." ”
No amount of doubt is useless.
The boat had already reached their eyes, and the maid in green clothes jumped down first, and then carefully helped Zhao Yueqiu to walk in front of them.
After a few seconds, Zhao Yueqiu put his hand on his waist, saluted gracefully, and said to Qi Changrong with a clean voice: "Yueqiu has seen His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
As for the maid beside her, she had already stepped aside with a look in her eyes, as a slave, she didn't even have the qualifications to look directly at Qi Chang's face.
Qi Changrong was a little surprised, took a step back calmly, and helped him with kindness: "Miss Zhao is exempt." ”
Junchen's expression was stinky: "Why are you here?" ”
Zhao Yueqiu chuckled: "It's just an accident, I was outside the lake with the maid, and I saw that the figure in the pavilion was a little familiar, so I came over to take a look." ”
Qi Changrong didn't hear the conversation between Zhou Shiren and Junchen just now, and half believed it when he heard it.
She still remembered that because of Zhao Yueqiu, Jun Chen guarded herself like a thief, in order not to deepen the misunderstanding, she moved a step to the side with great eyes, keeping a safe distance from Zhao Yueqiu.
In this way, it can always stop the thoughts in Junchen's head, right?
Anyway, in this life, she never thought about marrying the crown princess.
It's not beautiful if it's misunderstood.
Zhao Yueqiu is a smart girl, seeing Qi Changrong retreating, she knew in her heart that she was keeping a distance from herself, her eyes were gloomy, and the joy in her heart was a little lighter.
Jun Chen's expression was even more stinky, and he was the only one in the audience who guessed Zhao Yueqiu's thoughts in two points: "You have also seen people, can you leave now?" How can a big girl walk alone and not go home quickly, so as not to worry her uncle. ”
Junchen is not a man of many words, but when it comes to this only cousin, he will always say a few more words than usual.
I also blame my uncle for being too pedantic, like a nerd all day long, staying in the study when he has nothing to do, eager to taste all the books in the world, and where do you understand the thoughts of those daughters?
Zhou Shiren understood some of the signs, and noticed that Zhao Yueqiu's gaze looked at Qi Changrong from time to time, and even Jun Chen, who was his cousin, could only occasionally get her a few blank eyes.
Although he only looked at Qi Changrong with a few understatements, it still made him vigilant.
It doesn't feel good.
Junchen's cousin is not the girl Huaichun, and the object of Huaichun is the prince of the East Palace!
Zhao Yueqiu didn't seem to hear Jun Chen's words, and asked Qi Changrong: "Since that day, I haven't seen the thirteenth princess for a long time, is she okay in the palace?" Can Your Majesty punish her? ”
That day was the day when Qi Zihuan and Qi Ziruo fell into the water at the same time.
Qi Changrong was slightly stunned, and said indifferently: "Bother Miss Zhao to bother, Thirteen is good now." That matter has nothing to do with her, and her father is the most discerning, so how can he punish irrelevant people. ”
Her attitude was not enthusiastic, and she even deliberately avoided suspicion.
However, even so, Jun Chen's face still sank uncontrollably.
Thinking about it, Qi Changrong sat down from the stone bench.
The next few people also sat down in turn.
When they were verbose, Zhou Shiren and Junchen deliberately stood in the way between them, which made Zhao Yueqiu cheaper, as long as she lifted her eyelids, she could take in the look of the person opposite, and the more she looked at it, the more satisfied she was.
"So I'm relieved, when the incident happened suddenly, it's also because I didn't follow the thirteenth princess, so that that kind of thing happened." Zhao Yueqiu frowned and blamed herself.
