Chapter 198: Flaws

The fourth wife gritted her teeth angrily, and said the purpose, "No one can shake the status of the prince, I know, but our lord is so innocent, we must compensate him a little, he is still only a fourth-grade official, and it is time to be promoted." ”

The fourth wife said lightly, but it was straightforward, it was really speechless, who was innocent, as if the prince had snatched the royal seal from the hands of the fourth master, and he didn't want to say much, "The major affairs of the court, I said it and didn't count, the fourth aunt should go to the emperor to ask for an official, the emperor has always been at odds with the prince, maybe he will directly give up the position of the prince to the fourth uncle." ”

She is light and breezy, and Zhiwan is more light and breezy than her, and the fourth wife almost ran out of breath, but she had to endure it, "I know you don't have that ability, but Yue'er has, and you don't want the prince's affairs to be known to everyone, right?" ”

The fourth wife's coercion, Zhiwan felt funny, "It's ridiculous to shake the big tree, I advise the fourth aunt, if I were you, I would send my sister-in-law to the border, let the prince help with the experience, the prince felt guilty, sooner or later he would help the sixth young master to make a contribution, and return the title of the Zhenguo Mansion to the Zhenguo Mansion, others don't have that ability, the prince has, and even the military power belonging to the Zhenguo Mansion will be handed over to him, if you have evil thoughts, the prince's anger is not so easy to provoke." ”

Zhiwan said calmly and calmly, but the fourth wife was stunned, looking at Zhiwan indifferently, as if she wanted to see something on her face, Zhiwan owed a light debt, and walked away with the maid.

She said that it was the only way to go, and I don't know if I would do it or not.

When I went out, I saw Leng Mu standing next to the carriage waiting, the steps were well arranged, Poria helped Zhiwan to get out of the carriage, and he followed, while Zhuxiang and Marigold sat in a slightly simple carriage behind.

Autumn is coming, and all major colleges have holidays for students to relax and cope with exams. Calculate the time, but about half a month.

Sitting in the carriage, I lifted the curtain and saw many scholars selling calligraphy and paintings.

Two quarters of an hour later, the carriage stopped in front of the Dingyuan Marquis' Mansion. Before he got out of the carriage, Manager Qin greeted him with a warm smile on his face.

Zhiwan nodded with a smile, and when he stepped up the steps, he heard a hearty laugh and the sound of talking from the house.

"Zhizhang, Ming'er really invited the chief examiner of the last autumn festival to give a speech on the water side?"

"Brother Liulin, how did I hear that I was inviting the chief examiner of this year's Autumn Season to give a speech?"

"Two terms are the same person."

"It was a holiday yesterday, and now the tickets are sold out, how do we get in? Brother Zhang. Princess Yuejun is your sister, can this little favor help? ”

The voices were getting closer and closer, and when Zhiwan crossed the threshold, she saw four men of similar ages coming, two of whom she had seen. Last time at the Hibiscus Banquet, Qin Zhizhang took it to Princess Liuhua's Mansion, it seems that there is one named Liu Changsheng, and the other one doesn't remember.

The five people, including Qin Zhizhang, were talking and laughing, and suddenly, they saw the sun. A woman walked over, with a fair complexion, a beautiful complexion, and a pair of sheared pupils flowing uncertainly under the thousands of flowers, like a water jade, which was fascinating.

Time. I was stunned.

Poria was a little annoyed when she saw it, she was still a group of students, and she dared to look at the princess of the county like this, and couldn't help coughing heavily, waking up those people from their stunned minds. The fair-skinned and handsome face was full of shame, and his head was lowered.

Qin Zhizhang didn't expect to come at this time, the palace sent someone to pass the word that he came back from the morning, he waited until he had lunch and didn't see her, and was about to leave, but he didn't expect to run into it.

Liu Changsheng remembered who Zhiwan was, his face was slightly pale, and he hurriedly saluted behind Qin Zhizhang, and the remaining three people also made a move.

Zhiwan chuckled, "Big brother doesn't need to be polite, a few of them are my eldest brother's friends, don't be polite." ”

After speaking, Zhiwan looked at Qin Zhizhang, "I just entered the door and heard you talk about the speech, didn't you send tickets to the eldest brother on the water side?" ”

Liu Changsheng and the others looked at Qin Zhizhang enviously, it was a great blessing to have such a sister, I heard that on the water side, it was she and the king of Yuejun who opened it.

Qin Zhizhang shook his head slightly, Zhiwan frowned, how could it not be, and looked at Poria Cocos, Poria Cocos' eyes widened, and her voice was full of doubts, "The slave asked the shopkeeper and gave three tokens to Master Hou, the eldest young master and his wife, how could there be no one?" ”

"To whom?" Zhiwan asked coldly.

Manager Qin stood aside, stunned, and said busily, "It was the slave who received it, and when I gave the token to my wife, my wife took it all." ”

When Qin Zhizhang heard that Qian Shi had taken it, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, "I'll go find her to get it." ”

After speaking, he left Liu Changsheng a few, turned around and left, Manager Qin hurriedly caught up, and said a few words lightly, Qin Zhizhang's face was like the frost and snow in the cold winter, "Are you sure?" ”

Manager Qin sighed, he really didn't want to offend his wife, but he received the brand, but he didn't give it to the eldest young master, he was wrong!

Poria couldn't help but say, "Uncle Qin, if you have something to say, just say it." ”

Manager Qin was a little embarrassed, in front of the eldest young master's friends, he was really embarrassed to say that his wife didn't want to see him, didn't this fall on his face, but fortunately, there was a princess of the county as a backer, which was much thicker than his wife, so he didn't hide it, "Ago, when the eldest aunt and grandmother returned to the door, when they left, the slave listened to the maid next to her talk about the token, and the wife should give the eldest young master's token to the eldest aunt and grandmother." ”

It's not right to say it's for the aunt and grandmother, it should be given to the aunt, the token is from Beiyuan, and it's useless for the aunt and grandmother to take it.

Poria cocos's willow eyebrows are upside down, the token given to the Hou Ye by the princess of the county is the best, and the one given to the eldest young master is slightly worse, but he can also eat five times for free in the restaurant on the water side, and there is a bathhouse, which can also be free five times, but he was used by his wife as a favor, and Poria almost didn't scold.

Even Zhiwan's face turned cold, there are not many special tokens, they are all held by credible people, but an outsider suddenly popped out, if it weren't for her good endurance, I guess I couldn't help but go crazy.

Poria held her breath and said, "Princess Jun, the slave sent someone to find the eldest aunt and grandmother to get the token back?" ”

Zhiwan waved his hand lightly, glanced at Chief Manager Qin, Chief Manager Qin's back was cold, and he said busily, "The slave will tell Master Hou truthfully." ”

Zhiwan didn't say much, and took out two jade pendants from his sleeves, white and clear, with one side written on the water side and five on the other.

Zhiwan handed the jade pendant to Qin Zhizhang. Qin Zhizhang was slightly stunned, "This is?" ”

"The previous token could only bring a small guy in, and by tying the jade pendant to the token, you can bring five people in."

Qin Zhizhang's eyes lit up. Hurriedly took the token and looked at it carefully, because of excitement, his hands trembled a little, "Thank you, fourth sister." ”

Zhiwan smiled, did not disturb them to play on the water side, and continued to walk forward.

Stepping through the weeping flower gate and entering the inner courtyard, he first went to ask Zhao for peace, and Zhao was a little unwell. Coupled with Su Xiangwan's matter, she was annoyed and didn't give her any good looks, even if she gave a lot of gifts.

Qin Zhiyu and Qin Zhixue were on the side, and saw Zhiwan wearing a sky blue dress. The fabric is the best sky blue brocade, and I feel envious and jealous in my heart, and even my words are a little sour.

"I really underestimated the fourth sister, only two months after she got married, she built a seat on the water side, and waited for the cashier," it was Qin Zhiyu who tasted it. The embroidered handkerchief in his hand twisted stiffly, thinking of the explanation of the third prince and the virtuous concubine, asking her to befriend her, and asking her to slap her, her delicate face was distorted with anger.

Qin Zhishan provoked, "The fourth sister gave the eldest aunt a sign. Why don't you give a piece to your grandmother too? ”

After saluting, he smiled quietly, "Grandmother is an elder, she goes to the water side, what token does she need." Just bring three or five maids and go in and play. ”

Poria couldn't help but say, "Such a privilege, except for the princess of the county, the princess of the county and the prince, there is only one old lady, and even the emperor bought a brand by himself before entering." ”

Hearing Poria's words, Zhao's face softened a lot, she wanted to go to the water side to have a look and relax, but she was choked by the Qian family, saying that Zhiwan did not prepare her token, it turned out that she didn't need it, she was in a good mood, and her speech was a little less harsh, "I heard that several wives in the palace forced you to hand over the shares on the water side?" ”

Zhiwan's heart jumped, and then looked at Zhao's face, obviously the same calculation as the eldest lady, so he smiled, "There is indeed such a thing." ”

Zhao's tea was sipped lightly, covered by the water vapor, and he looked at Zhiwan twice, seeing that she wanted to speak and stopped, and did not want to take the water side to honor her, he couldn't help frowning, and it was okay to hand it over to Hou Ye, but there was no share of the second room, as long as he got a star and a half, it was enough for the second room to eat and drink.

Qin Zhiyu sat aside, she was afraid that Zhiwan would secretly give the shares to Qin Zhizhang, so there would be no matter of Zhixuan, so she wondered, how did she think of such a fun place built on the water side?

Zhiwan sat for a while, and on the grounds of not disturbing Zhao's rest, he went out of the hospital and went to Meixiang Courtyard to greet Qian.

When I went, I happened to hear a commotion in the house, and it was Dingyuan Hou who was reprimanding the Qian family, "Send someone to ask Zhiyan to send back the sign of Zhizhang!" ”

Qian sat there and said sullenly, "It's all for my sister-in-law, how can I have the face to come back, she can't use that brand, it must be given to the eldest aunt, go to find her and ask for it, how do you let her behave in Ningguo Mansion?" ”

Dingyuan's face was red and white, and Mother Wang on the side said busily, "Do you want to buy another piece for the eldest young master?" ”

Qian said coldly, "With the shares of the coal mine in his hand, will he buy it without money?!" ”

Dingyuanhou looked at Qian coldly, Qian's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly changed his words, asking Wang's mother to buy the silver immediately, Dingyuanhou added, "I bought it and sent it to my eldest aunt, and took back the piece that belonged to Zhang'er." ”

Mother Wang looked at Qian's family, in a dilemma, yesterday the eldest aunt and grandmother happily told Mrs. that the token is very useful, how can she save 3,000 taels of silver in a year, and the brand is a three-year system, that is, it can save 10,000 taels of silver, take it back at this time, and the eldest aunt and grandmother will not be angry?

The benefits of the token, how could the Marquis of Dingyuan not know, he thought that he would give him a piece of it when he knew it, but he didn't expect that there was also a copy of Qin Zhizhang, it was rare for a married daughter to be able to go to her mother's family like this, but she didn't expect to be taken by the person next to her pillow to do a favor!

The Qian family felt sorry for Qin Zhiyan, and did not allow Wang's mother to do this, her husband only had the dead Su family in his heart, she could only rely on her two daughters and sons in her life, and she must not fall into their faces.

The Marquis of Dingyuan wanted to send Chief Manager Qin to go, but the Qian family refused to let him live, and he happened to go in at this time, and said with a smile, "Dad, you don't have to worry about the token, I'll send someone to get it myself." ”

Qian Shi heard it and blurted out, "How do you take it?" ”

Zhiwan raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "This is simple, the token is specially made, under the candlelight, you can see the name of the eldest brother engraved on it, the eldest brother used to study, and borrowed the eldest brother-in-law to play for a few days." Now that the big brother is back, it's time for the brand to come back. ”

Qian's face flickered, and her eyes showed ruthlessness, she understood the meaning of Zhiwan's words. The token is unique, it belongs to Qin Zhizhang, if it is said in public, maybe there is a crime of stealing, Yue Jun Wang and Ning Yuan are fighting on the street, and they will not have the slightest scruples about Ning Guo's mansion.

Qian gave Wang's mother a look, and Wang's mother said, "The slave maid went to buy a brand and sent it to the eldest aunt." ”

When Dingyuan Hou saw Zhiwan, his face looked much better, "What about Chen'er." Okay? ”

Zhiwan nodded, and before he could speak, he listened to Qian's words, "Yongzhou is so far away, and the two children have been brought there." The Hou Mansion was separated by a few streets, but it didn't bring it. ”

Zhiwan glanced at Qian Shi lightly, looked at Dingyuan Hou with a smile and said, "Dad, I sent Chen'er here last time, but I didn't allow him to enter, so I didn't bring him this time." Lest everyone speculate whether they don't want to be dusty again, they will bring him to greet you next time. ”

Dingyuan Hou nodded, as long as Chen'er is good, it doesn't matter if he sees it or not, are you afraid that he won't have a chance to see it in the future, so he got up and said. "Go to the study with my father, I have something to say to you."

Zhiwan hurriedly put down the teacup and got up, Qian's face turned white with anger, and he had something to say alone. Not in front of her!

With the Hou of Dingyuan behind him went to the outer courtyard study, Zhiwan is not the first time to come here, and there is no difference from the last time, except that there are more paintings on the wall, and the woman in the painting has a seven-point portrait with her, and there is no doubt that it is her mother.

"Is there something Daddy is looking for me?" Zhiwan asked curiously.

Dingyuan Hou sat down and asked if the old lady Su and the old lady Su were in good health, and the old lady answered one by one, as if asking these words, there was no need to come to the study?

Sure enough, after Marquis Dingyuan drank two sips of tea, he spoke, "The emperor entrusted me with one thing." ”

Hearing these words, Zhiwan's eyes suddenly brightened a little.

Entrusted? The emperor actually entrusted her father? Don't know what's going on?

Seeing that the Marquis of Dingyuan continued to drink tea, Zhiwan was curious, and he didn't have such an appetite, "Dad, what does the emperor entrust you?" ”

Marquis Dingyuan put down the teacup and opened his mouth unhurriedly, but he was stunned, "The emperor asked you and me to talk about his good things in front of King Yuejun." ”

Zhiwan's face was full of black lines, his eyes blinked again and again, thinking that he had heard something wrong, and asked, "Say good things about the emperor in front of Xianggong?" Why say good things? ”

The Marquis of Dingyuan glanced at Zhiwan twice, but what he thought of was what Gonggong Xu told him, "Master Hou, the slave has never found a chance to congratulate you on getting a good son-in-law, with two grandsons, you also know the identity of the little prince, the emperor has been strict and loose and doting on the prince of the county over the years, do you know the reason?" ”

At that time, he was full of puzzlement, "If my father-in-law has something to say, you might as well say it directly." ”

Gonggong Xu glanced left and right twice, and made sure that there was no one around, so he lowered his voice and said, "Nineteen years ago, do you remember the matter of the first queen?" ”

Hearing this, the shock at that time, only the Marquis of Dingyuan himself knew, his internal organs trembled, he always felt that the emperor was a little too good to the king of Yuejun, but he didn't think about it in any way, even if there were rumors in private, but no one took it seriously like this, "Is the king of Yuejun really the emperor's ......?" ”

Gonggong Xu nodded heavily, "Actually, the slave also knew about this for a long time, the emperor has been looking for another child all these years, and the slave thought it was the eldest prince, but he didn't expect it to be the prince of Zhennan." ”

He paused for a moment and continued to sigh, "The emperor was angry and did two wrong things, one was that he did not believe in the innocence of the first queen and the king of Lian, and the other was that he lost the biological flesh and blood of the king of Zhennan, the emperor could not give the prince the prince, and he had no face to return to the eldest prince, and now he finally found the prince of Zhennan, and the prince of the county found it himself, he regarded the prince as the eldest prince, and he also counted the emperor down, the emperor has bitterness in his heart and can't say it, these years under the connivance of the prince, the prince of the county has not put the emperor in his eyes, Don't look at the emperor's body and bones, in fact, the emperor dreams every night, dreaming of the first queen, that is, he has insomnia until dawn after lighting the incense, and the government affairs are busy, the slave is really worried that the emperor will not be able to bear it, the emperor has loved the first queen in his life, so many princes, the most beloved is also the king of Yuejun, who was disobeyed by his own son, the Hou Ye can also understand the bitterness in the emperor's heart, you are the father-in-law of the prince of the county, you speak, he will listen, you persuade him to respect the emperor, nothing more to go back to the palace to see the emperor, it is best to give some gifts or something, so that the emperor is happy and happy. ”

Gonggong Xu's mouth was dry, and the Marquis of Dingyuan was stunned when he heard it, the emperor wanted to recognize the eldest prince a long time ago, but he couldn't find the prince's son?

Now that the prince has found it, he is worried that the eldest prince will hate him because of the matter of the former queen, and he is afraid of recognizing him?

The emperor really spoiled the king of Yuejun. No wonder when he learned that Chen'er had a purple rope on his wrist, he would be happy to be crowned the prince directly.

Xu Gonggong's request, he agreed, and turned back to the imperial study. The emperor actually rewarded him with a painting.

Obviously, he was entrusted with his loyalty.

He never dreamed that the emperor would entrust him with something, and he was flattered!

He was stunned when he heard it before, but now it was changed to Zhiwan, and Zhiwan asked in a loud voice, "That is to say, Xianggong is the eldest prince, and the eldest young master Chu is the prince of Zhennan?" ”

The Marquis of Dingyuan frowned slightly, the emperor gave Chu Pei and Miss Rong to marry last night, Chu Pei is the prince of Zhennan?

He doesn't care who is the prince of Zhennan, he only follows the emperor's orders. "The first queen must have been killed by someone back then, there is no evidence, and the emperor can't be rehabilitated, the king of Yuejun has been working against the emperor since he was a child, you persuade him more. It's okay to bring two plates of dim sum to the emperor to eat. ”

Knowing that he was sweating at night, Ye Guiyue couldn't do such a thing as carrying snacks, he would definitely say that there were imperial kitchens in the imperial dining room, and the emperor could not eat.

Came out of the study and looked at the white clouds in the sky. There is a sense of a long way to go.

didn't go to the inner courtyard again, Zhiwan planned to go back to the palace directly, who would have thought that Qin Zhiwei would block the way halfway, Qin Zhiwan rarely had a good face for her, and the smile was soft and soft, which made her feel furious.

Wait for Qin Zhiyu to speak. Zhiwan had a headache, she didn't want to participate in the matter of Lichu at all, she only knew that Chen'er would be the emperor, whether it was really or not, she wasn't sure. Everything goes naturally, whether she is the emperor or not, she protects him from being a poor emperor who is a loser, and if he is not an emperor, he also has an inexhaustible treasury of gold and silver.

As a result, the future little emperor and his father became the eldest prince, which was really unexpected.

was already in a mess, and was worried about how to persuade a person who would not be attentive to be attentive to a certain emperor who was eager to be courteous to his son, Qin Zhiyu ran out to tell her about sisterhood, and said with a clear look, "Fourth sister, you also know that I withdrew from the relatives of the four princes and gave marriage to the third prince, and the court mentioned the matter of the prince every day, and only one of the three princes and the four princes was selected, the four princes and the four brothers-in-law had deep contradictions, once the four princes were enthroned and became the emperor, there would definitely be no good fruit to eat in the Zhennan Palace, As long as you support the three princes to ascend the throne, I promise that you will definitely protect the glory and wealth of the Zhennan Palace. ”

In other words, it sounds like there is still some truth, no one can be allowed to ascend the throne of the fourth prince, isn't that to find a sharp knife for yourself, but the third prince?

Don't you know that the future emperor is my son?

Zhiwan raised her eyebrows, her eyes flashed, and she said with a smile, "Actually, there is a person who is more suitable to be the crown prince than the third prince and the fourth prince." ”

Qin Zhiyu laughed when she heard this, "Fourth sister, you just tease me, who else is more suitable, the fifth prince or the seventh prince?" Don't tell me you're the Nine Emperors of the palace maiden. ”

Zhiwan also smiled, just a moment, I wanted to poke out the news of the eldest prince's life, so that everyone could have a psychological preparation, and when the emperor recognized his son in the future, it would not be too abrupt, but she was afraid that in this way, the emperor would recognize his son early, and after being crowned the prince, she would have to live in the palace, which is not counted, the prince is still shouldering the heavy responsibility of spreading branches and leaves, isn't she blocking herself?

"Promote a powerless and powerless prince, and rely on the Zhennan Wangfu to stand tall."

Qin Zhi's face was stunned, "That's why the king of Yuejun didn't take the third prince and the fourth prince in his eyes, but got close to the ninth prince?" ”

Seeing her face, Zhiwan's heart suddenly trembled, she may have inadvertently pushed the Nine Emperor Princes into the fire pit, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, the flaws in the identity of the Nine Emperor Princes, even if the Zhennan Royal Mansion helps out, it is estimated that it will not be able to block the mouths of hundreds of civil and military officials, the emperor is in full bloom, why should the matter of the prince be in a hurry?" ”

Qin Zhiyu also felt that the Nine Emperors had little hope, the prince of a palace girl, if he became a great treasure, wouldn't he make the world laugh at him?

Hooked lips and smiled, in an instant, "The fourth sister still made a plan early, and be careful that one mistake will become a thousand hatreds." ”

"Thank you, Sixth Sister, for reminding me."
