Chapter 414: Overwhelmed
"What kind of terrible place can that Gongyuan be? It's just because the second cousin is golden and noble on weekdays, and there are people everywhere around him, and there are special people to serve him in his daily life, so he is a little overwhelmed by the fact that he is not allowed to live by himself. ”
"I was locked up in that room for three days, and I had to get my own food, and now the weather is cold, I guess the second cousin may not even be able to make a carbon fire, he may eat some cold steamed buns every day, drink cold water, maybe he will be frozen awake in the middle of the night, where can he bear this suffering!"
Xinyang and Xinliu couldn't help but laugh when they heard it.
What Miss said is really possible, the second son lives a luxurious life on weekdays, and there are more than a dozen people around him.
Almost as soon as I reached out for food, I opened my mouth.
Among the young masters of the Jiang family, only the second son lived such a luxurious life.
However, because he was going to take the road of the imperial examination, everyone also knew that the imperial examination was difficult, so he was not too strict with her.
But there is a world of difference between the second son and the fourth son, there are only two or three people around the fourth son, but there are so many people around the second son, compared with the second son, the fourth son seems to come out of the slum.
"Go back and let Mrs. Chen, send the fruit wine I brewed in the summer to the fourth cousin and the second cousin, now is the best time to eat barbecue and drink wine, let the second cousin make up for it."
"Miss, don't worry, we'll tell Mrs. Chen later."
She is so sick now that she can only go out in bed, let alone go to the Jiang family to see the situation, and she doesn't know how her second cousin is doing.
But looking at him so aggrieved and able to sue, it shouldn't be bad.
Even if he didn't do well in the exam, if the emperor really wanted to use the Jiang family, the second cousin would definitely be in high school.
Mrs. Chen walked up, "Miss just came to the concierge to say that the Jiang family sent a cart of gifts. ”
"It was sent by the fourth cousin?"
"Yes, Miss was sent by the fourth son and the second son, the fourth son sent a white tiger skin, and the second son sent a fist-sized night pearl, saying that it was placed in the house, and the night could be illuminated, and it was held for Miss to relieve boredom, they knew that Miss was going to be in bed now, and they were worried that Miss would be bored on weekdays, so they also specially collected some folk gadgets."
Lu Qingrong couldn't cry or laugh, did these two brothers spoil her like a child?
She's such a big person, and she has to play with tricks.
Lu Qingrong was very disdainful in her heart, she didn't need those skills and tools when she was such a big person!
But when she saw so many flexible tools, she couldn't put it down almost instantly.
Nie Jingyang came back and just watched Lu Qingrong holding a nine-link chain there.
It seems that he has encountered some problem, and there is a little anger on his face.
"What is the lady playing?"
Lu Qingrong threw the nine consecutive links on the bed in a fit of anger.
Nie Jingyang hurriedly went over and grabbed Lu Qingrong's hand, "Don't be angry, if the nine chains make the lady angry, I will go and break his body into thousands of pieces and divide the body, so that his soul will be scattered." ”
Lu Qingrong turned into a smile in an instant, "It's just one thing, how can it be as serious as you say?" Besides, can I still deal with a toy? ”
Nie Jingyang lowered his head silently, didn't speak, and just now he didn't know who threw the nine links angrily.
"By the way, is there something wrong with you coming back so late?"
"Has the lady forgotten? The imperial doctor said that you don't have to think too much about it recently, and I have the affairs of the court, so you can just rest at home and recuperate. ”
"Today, the doctor said that I can already go to the ground, and in another month I can be like a normal person, don't think of me as a patient, I am using my brain and not my hands, and I am always lying on this bed, it is boring after all."
It's good to say that Nie Jingyang agreed to Lu Qingrong here.
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just that the emperor has officially given the name to His Royal Highness the Taisun, Zhao Chong, the noble Chong."
"Nothing else besides this?"
Although Lu Qingrong still had a smile on his face, he could see that it was a bit far-fetched.
She still remembers the man.
Shen Bixia's suspicion not only did not abate, but became more and more aggravated.
It's just that so far, no direct relationship between Shen Bixia and Li Yantang has been found.
"In addition, the emperor also greatly rewarded the Shen family, and transferred Lord Shen out of the household department and went to the ministry of officials, and the original lord Shang Shuluo of the ministry was found to have embezzled silver taels, but the amount was not large, the emperor punished the officials by one level, and now he is the servant of the ministry of officials, and your cousin took over from the original household department."
Lu Qingrong was stunned, "But isn't the list still out yet?" I don't know how I did in the exam, why was my second cousin named the head of the household by the emperor? Isn't it a bit too rushed? Is something happening in the DPRK? ”
Lu Qingrong asked questions one after another, and Nie Jingyang was a little at a loss.
can only be answered one by one,
"It's still the lady's vigilance, in fact, it's because Beidi and the Tuba tribe have joined forces, although the scale of the Tuba tribe is not very large, but the people there are fierce, regardless of men, women and children are warriors, the two cooperate, I am afraid that there will be a big war in the spring of next year."
"At that time, the treasury needs a large amount of silver taels to support military supplies, so after the emperor heard the news, he couldn't wait for the household department to raise it, but the household department couldn't come up with a charter for a long time, and it was still the same as in previous years."
"The emperor was very sad about this, so he thought of your second cousin, and ordered someone to take the lead in calling up his examination papers, this time the exam question is on national fortune and business, and the article written by your second cousin is deeply loved by the emperor, and he is directly named the champion."
"The list should be posted tomorrow, but the will to serve as the head of the household department has been made, as long as the list is announced, he will take office, but very few people know about it, only the people of the Jiang family and the people around the emperor know, the emperor told in advance, it should be to give your second cousin time to prepare."
In this way, the second cousin will have a hard time riding a tiger.
If the second cousin has not raised the money before the spring of the next year, the emperor will definitely be furious, and maybe he will use the Jiang family to fill this hole.
The emperor is really calculating!
The second cousin is a proud person, let him go to the household department to be a scholar, how can those old people in the original household department be able to obey him.
I'm afraid that those who want to submit to Tobe are not a simple matter.
I hope that the second cousin is capable and can handle the affairs of the household department well.
It's just that the household department has always been fat, and the second cousin is upright, and he will make money, but he doesn't fit in, in case he finds out about corruption, then?
