Chapter 151: The Contradiction between the Monarch and the Minister
It was late at night, and they finally settled down, Shen Yanniang and the nurse were taking care of the child, and Lin Zheyuan was staying by Chen Xiu'er's side every step of the way.
Jiang Qingyue stood in front of the door, looking at Lin Zheyuan's figure on the window, her eyes were deep.
She thought of Chen Xiu'er's appearance when she gave birth today, she could hear Chen Xiu'er's uncontrollable shouts when she stood outside the door, such a resolute woman was suffering unbearable pain because of childbirth.
It turns out that when you give birth to a child, it is so difficult and painful? Jiang Qingyue thought of Concubine Qing, was it the same when she gave birth to her?
In the past, Jiang Qingyue's feelings for Concubine Qing had always been very complicated, and she wanted to know what kind of grace and beauty this woman could make Emperor Xuande love for a lifetime? She felt that her mother must be a kind and beautiful woman, so even people like Emperor Xuande would fall in love with her.
Later, she knew that she was the child born of Qing Guifei and Jing Zhao's affair, she began to be disappointed in Qing Guifei, Qing Guifei was not as beautiful as she imagined, she began to wonder, what kind of person is her mother?
Jiang Qingyue walked out of the house and walked aimlessly on the street, the moonlight stretching her figure long.
Suddenly, someone blocked her way, Jiang Qingyue raised her head, and saw Zhou Ruian standing in front of her.
Jiang Qingyue blinked: "You, why are you here?" ”
Zhou Ruian said calmly: "If I say that this is fate, I am in a bad mood and come out for a spin, and then I will meet you, do you believe it or not?" ”
Jiang Qingyue glanced at him silently, her expression was very obvious, she believed him.
"It must be that the doctor went back to tell you about Xiu'er's condition, and you were worried about me, so you came to me." Jiang Qingyue said in a low voice.
Zhou Ruian smiled lightly: "Well, I can still think, it seems that it is not a big deal." ”
Jiang Qingyue sighed faintly, and Zhou Rui'an took her hand, "Okay, don't worry, Chen Xiu'er's matter, I have already instructed the doctor to try his best to diagnose and treat it." ”
Jiang Qingyue nodded, thought about it, she wrinkled her brows and said, "Alas, I'll just say, how can it be so easy to cure madness?" In the end, I lost my body, and I don't know if it was right or wrong to cure her in the first place. ”
Zhou Rui'an's eyes flashed, and he didn't speak.
The two walked aimlessly along the road, and Jiang Qingyue suddenly said, "When I saw Xiu'er today, I thought about it...... Chaise. ”
Since knowing the relationship between Concubine Qing and Jing Zhao, Jiang Qingyue was reluctant to call her mother, she always felt a little awkward.
Zhou Rui'an sighed and said softly: "That's all about the elders, you don't need to impose these pressures on yourself, those have nothing to do with you." After a pause, he continued: "You didn't do anything wrong, and it doesn't matter who was right and who was wrong in the first place, maybe they really love each other." ”
Truly in love? Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and glance at him: "Do you mean those rumors?" I always thought you were letting it out to divert attention? ”
Zhou Ruian choked, couldn't help shaking his head and smiling bitterly, he said honestly: "I admit that some of this is too beautified, but most of it is true, they actually love each other sincerely, I don't mean how the emperor is, but you also know that he can't do it when he snatches love." ”
Jiang Qingyue's eyes were obscure and he did not speak.
Zhou Ruian continued: "The right and wrong back then have nothing to do with you, I don't want you to embarrass yourself because of those things, do you understand? ”
Jiang Qingyue nodded lightly, and Zhou Ruian smiled at her.
"Prepare yourself to be my queen."
Jiang Qingyue was just about to speak, when his eyes suddenly paused, falling in the direction in front of him, Zhou Ruian followed her gaze and looked over, just in time to see the Second Prince's Mansion in front.
Zhou Rui'an's brows furrowed faintly, instinctively feeling unlucky, he looked at Jiang Qingyue: "I'll send you back." ”
Jiang Qingyue glanced at him and nodded slowly.
The two seemed to have a tacit understanding, and they never mentioned the second prince, even though they both knew that the second prince was an unavoidable topic between them.
Liu Min followed in the dark with the secret guard, looking at the harmonious backs of the two, he couldn't help but pout, and couldn't help muttering: "What the hell is this tossing?" Sent back and forth, Niangniang herself is strong in martial arts, and there are secret guards to protect in the dark, what's not to worry about? ”
A secret guard beside him couldn't help but glance at him: "So, my lord, you don't have a lady!" ”
Liu Min choked and finally stopped talking.
When they reached the outside of the house, the two stopped.
Zhou Ruian sighed and said, "I really don't want to send you home, because I want to go home with you." ”
Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but smile, "You are the emperor, how can you be so childish?" ”
"What's wrong with being the emperor? Can't be childish when you're the emperor? Zhou Ruian said confidently, paused, he stared at her with bright eyes and said, "I'm only childish with you." ”
Jiang Qingyue pursed his lips and suddenly said, "If I want to kill Chen Baobao, will you be angry with me?" ”
Zhou Rui'an was stunned for a moment, and then turned his face with joy: "Qingyue, are you jealous?" After a pause, he said happily: "I didn't expect that in my lifetime, I would be able to wait for Qingyue to be jealous of me, I really have no regrets in this life." ”
Jiang Qingyue looked at him deeply: "You know what I mean. ”
The expression on Zhou Rui'an's face faded a lot, and he met her eyes, and then asked lightly: "Then what do you mean?" ”
Jiang Qingyue pursed his lips, and Zhou Ruian said: "I also want to ask you, when did it start, for you, how is the second prince the same as Chen Baobao?" ”
Chen Baobao is admiration for Zhou Rui'an, this is a well-known thing, Jiang Qingyue used Chen Baobao as a metaphor, is it in her opinion, the second prince and Chen Baobao are the same, both of them have the same thoughts?
I have to say that it is also very scary for a man to bite the words.
Jiang Qingyue choked, and for the first time facing Zhou Rui'an, he had a feeling of having nothing to say.
Zhou Ruian touched her head: "In this world, no matter who you put together for me to choose, let alone Chen Baobao, even if it is the throne, I have only one choice, and it has never changed." After a pause, "That's you, you will always be unique and irreplaceable to me." ”
Jiang Qingyue frowned, and Zhou Ruian said with a wry smile: "I hope you can be more careful with Chen Baobao, what if you kill her by mistake......
These words sounded extremely cold, but they were Zhou Rui'an's sincere words, Jiang Qingyue pursed his lips, and suddenly felt that he had asked a stupid question.
Jiang Qingyue was very alert, and after realizing the problem, he immediately planned to leave: "Then, I'll go back first, and you should go back early to rest." ”
Zhou Rui'an grabbed her hand, Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but cover his face, turned his head with a helpless expression, and was serious: "Do you have anything else?" It was so late, and I remember that there was still a curfew on the street. ”
Naturally, there is a curfew in the capital, but this kind of thing is useless to Jiang Qingyue and Zhou Rui'an.
Zhou Ruian raised his eyebrows: "What about you?" If I kill the second prince, will you be angry with me? ”
Jiang Qingyue sighed helplessly, she knew it would be like this! I knew I wouldn't have asked just now.
Zhou Ruian urged: "Say it." ”
Jiang Qingyue thought for a while, and then said: "I know that he has done a lot of wrong things, and it is excusable for you to kill him, I won't be angry with you," after a pause, she continued: "But if he dies, I think, I should be sad." ”
Zhou Ruian sneered: "You know that I don't want you to be sad, that's why you said this to make me sad?" ”
Jiang Qingyue frowned unhappily: "Isn't this what you insist on asking?" I'm just answering your question, why did I make you sad again? ”
Liu Min couldn't help but be secretly anxious when he looked at it secretly, wasn't it okay just now? Why did it suddenly quarrel again.
Zhou Ruian took a deep breath: "Don't think that if you say that, I will let him go, he is not wrong this time!" Even if it's for you, I won't let him go! ”
Jiang Qingyue said: "What are you talking about?" When did I say I was going to let you go with him? After a pause, she said with a displeased face: "Forget it, I won't talk to you, it's not interesting to talk about it anymore!" ”
After Jiang Qingyue finished speaking, he turned around and walked in, Zhou Ruian was so angry that he pointed at her back and almost jumped to his feet.
Liu Min shrank his head, trying to reduce his sense of existence, lest Zhou Rui'an think of him, he didn't want to appear in front of Zhou Rui'an at this time.
"Liu Min! You come out for me! Zhou Rui'an called his name the next moment.
Liu Min felt very tired and wanted to try to pretend that he didn't exist, but he didn't have the courage, so he had to walk out slowly.
Zhou Ruian was furious: "Tell me about her, does she still look like a woman?" If I'm not happy, won't she coax me? Why is my temper still big?! ”
Liu Min nodded in agreement: "Guard Jiang's temper is indeed a bit big. ”
Zhou Ruian immediately glared at him, Liu Min reacted at this time, and hurriedly said: "No, this is a maverick, if it weren't for this, you wouldn't be able to enter the emperor's eyes?" ”
Zhou Ruian complained as he walked, and in the end he changed his taste.
"Although she is not as gentle as ordinary women, how many women have gone into battle to kill the enemy?"
"Also, don't look at her usually very strong, but only she has a very gentle time......" Zhou Ruian said, and couldn't help but purse the corners of her lips and laughed: "But her benefits, I won't tell you!" ”
Liu Min looked loveless, hehe, he didn't want to know! He is an older single unmarried man, why should he suffer such torture?
Speaking of this, Liu Min suddenly thought that the people around Zhou Rui'an, like him and Luo Beike, did not have a wife......
Zhou Ruian talked all the way back to the palace, and he was still a little unsatisfied, but he glanced at Liu Min and probably felt that he was a little bored, so he sent people away and went back to sleep by himself.
Liu Min: "......" suddenly felt that this night was colder than ever.
No matter how resolutely the ministers opposed, Zhou Rui'an did not change his will, and the contradictions between the monarch and the ministers became more and more intense.
The courtiers were shocked, and even Zhou Ruian was very touched, but fortunately, the minister was not dead, but he was also seriously injured, and he was not awake after being carried back.
In this way, the ministers are more resolute in opposing the marriage of Zhou Rui'an and Jiang Qingyue, and even the people have a lot of complaints about Zhou Rui'an.
And now Zhou Rui'an already has the potential to be a faint king, no! Absolutely not!
This is a duel between monarchs and ministers, although Jiang Qingyue is not in the court, she has always been keen, and when she goes out every day, she will hear the people whispering, saying that Zhou Ruian can force the minister to death for Jiang Qingyue now, and maybe he will die for Jiang Qingyue in the future.
The voices of courtiers and people dissatisfied with Zhou Ruian are also getting louder and louder.
And the conflict between Zhou Ruian and the minister broke out because of one thing.
Seeing that Zhou Ruian couldn't persuade him, a minister found Jiang Qingyue, and as soon as Jiang Qingyue went out, he was caught by the minister, pointing at Jiang Qingyue and began to scold her for being a demon girl who was a disaster to the country.
Jiang Qingyue frowned, she didn't want to deal with him, but she didn't expect this minister to block her way and didn't want her to leave.
The conflict between the two sides was about to break out, and it was rare for the minister to scold people on the street, and soon many people came to watch, and as soon as they heard that this person was Jiang Qingyue, they all started to talk about it.
"It doesn't look much better?"
"You forgot? I heard that her mother is a Qing concubine! Back then, Concubine Qing was fascinated by the first emperor, how could her daughter be worse? I heard that she was born to Qing Guifei and the guards by fornication, tell me, with such a shameless mother, how good can her conduct be? ”
When Jiang Qingyue heard this, he couldn't help but look angrily at the people who spoke: "What did you say? Do you have the ability to say it again?! ”
The people shrank for a moment, but because of the large number of people, they couldn't help but sneer at each other and said, "Just say it!" Don't be afraid of what people say! Who in the whole capital doesn't know this? Qing Guifei is a lowly woman who fornicates with others! ”
Jiang Qingyue was furious and punched the man in the cheek.
As soon as Jiang Qingyue made a move, the scene became even more chaotic, and the minister also came with escorts, and several parties fought, and finally it became a farce.
By the time Luobei arrived, Jiang Qingyue had also been beaten a lot.
Luo Bei felt that the sky was going to kill him, and the owner of the tavern beat Jiang Qingyue a few days ago, and now it is even better, the important ministers of the court and the people beat Jiang Qingyue together.
Zhou Rui'an was furious when he learned about this matter, and immediately disposed of the minister who stopped Jiang Qingyue, removed his post and copied his family, and did it in one go, or Liu Min personally took people there.
As a result, the relationship between the ministers and Zhou Ruian is even more incompatible.
After Zhou Rui'an made his will, he went to visit Jiang Qingyue, this time Jiang Qingyue was injured and recuperated in the palace.
"Qingyue, are you okay?" Zhou Ruian asked with concern: "This group of people is really too unusual!" Even if you talk to me every day, I dare to go to you! ”
Jiang Qingyue didn't speak, and Zhou Ruian thought that she was still angry, so he comforted him gently: "Don't worry, I have already disposed of that bold minister, and I promise that I will not let people find you again in the future, otherwise it will ......" A dark light flashed in his eyes.
Jiang Qingyue raised his head and said in a low voice, "Forget it." ”
Zhou Ruian thought he had misheard: "What did you say?" ”
Jiang Qingyue said in a low voice: "That minister, pardon him." ”
"No way!" Zhou Ruian said categorically: "He actually dared to go to you, I can't just let him go!" If they all come to you in the future, what kind of system will it become?! ”
Jiang Qingyue shook his head: "Don't clash with the ministers for me anymore, Zhou Ruian, I don't want to be a demon girl who is a disaster for the country." ”
"You believe what that old pedantic said?!" Zhou Ruian said in disbelief.
"But now I think he's right, am I?" Jiang Qingyue asked rhetorically: "What are you doing now, which one is not because of me, so that you are scolded by them?" Zhou Rui'an, forget it, just take it as if I begged you. ”
Zhou Rui'an frowned deeply, this was the first time she had told him the word begging.
Jiang Qingyue grabbed his hand earnestly: "Think about it, the contradiction between you and the minister is because of me, and now you are disposing of him because of me, isn't that equivalent to confirming my crime?" They will be even more opposed to our marriage, and if you give in one step, it will be regarded as a blessing for me. ”
Zhou Ruian pursed the corners of his lips, Jiang Qingyue always had a way to make him compromise, he nodded reluctantly: "I'm all looking at your face." ”
Jiang Qingyue nodded at him with a smile, and even reached out to hug him, with an attitude that had never been more active, which made Zhou Ruian flattered.
Jiang Qingyue leaned on his shoulder, a flash of worry flashed in his eyes, but Zhou Ruian didn't see it.
Because of Jiang Qingyue's intercession, the ministers were fortunate to see Zhou Rui'an's first imperial decree change, he pardoned the minister, and the mansion was returned, but he was demoted.
This result is much better than before, Zhou Ruian suddenly changed his mind, which surprised the ministers, Zhou Ruian intended to attract the hearts of Jiang Qingyue, and deliberately let Xiaofuzi release the news, all because of Jiang Qingyue's intercession.
As a result, none of the ministers were grateful to Jiang Qingyue, but they strengthened their minds against Jiang Qingyue!
They knelt and begged again, Zhou Ruian was unmoved, but Jiang Qingyue said two good words, which made Zhou Ruian change his mind, and changed the order every day, which is a big taboo for the superiors!
No way! It's too dangerous for such a woman to enter the harem! As a result, the ministers jumped up and down more and more and began to oppose Jiang Qingyue.
Zhou Ruian was so angry that he couldn't wait to arrest someone and fight again!
Jiang Qingyue refused Zhou Rui'an's request for her to stay in the palace to recuperate from her injuries, and insisted on leaving the palace, she returned home and went to see Chen Xiu'er first, Chen Xiu'er was still asleep, but Lin Zheyuan took care of her thoughtfully, and now Lin Zheyuan is taking care of Chen Xiu'er wholeheartedly, and the affairs of the dart game have fallen on Shen Yanniang.
Jiang Qingyue stood in front of the door, watching Lin Zheyuan carefully massage Chen Xiu'er's body, and couldn't help but smile lightly.
She knocked on the door gently, Lin Zheyuan raised his head and glanced at her, put down the handkerchief, and said with a smile: "Come in, Xiu'er may wake up happy when she sees you?" ”
Jiang Qingyue walked in, "I have something I want to tell you, I'm worried about disturbing her." ”
"It would be nice if I could wake her up." Lin Zheyuan said softly.
Jiang Qingyue sighed slightly, patted him on the shoulder, and gave him silent comfort.
Lin Zheyuan glanced at her with a serious expression: "What?" But what's the matter? ”
Jiang Qingyue was silent for a moment before he said, "I have something to ask you for help." ”
Lin Zheyuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, Jiang Qingyue could have something to ask him for help? What can't Zhou Rui'an solve?
"Are you sure I can help?" Lin Zheyuan said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
Jiang Qingyue nodded, and said with a serious face: "You will definitely be able to help!" ”
Lin Zheyuan saw that her face was serious, and then he gradually became serious, "What's the matter?" ”
Jiang Qingyue was silent for a while, and only after a long time did he speak.
Jiang Qingyue is gone.
This time, Jiang Qingyue disappeared, and Zhou Ruian found out in just half an hour.
Since Jiang Qingyue was kidnapped last time, Zhou Ruian has arranged secret guards by her side to protect her safety, and this time, no matter how Jiang Qingyue objected, Zhou Ruian did not let go.
When Zhou Ruian got the news, he almost pushed Liu Min out and beheaded, at that moment, the murderous aura emanating from his body made Liu Min believe without hesitation that if Zhou Ruian had a sword in his hand at this time, he would really kill him.
"What do you mean someone is missing?! I gave people to you for protection, and you actually lost them to me again!? Liu Min, have you done it as the commander of the brocade guard?! Zhou Ruian reprimanded angrily.
Liu Min's expression was very ugly, he glanced at Zhou Rui'an, and stopped talking.
Zhou Ruian said angrily: "If you have something to say, just say it!" ”
Liu Min felt that he was a little wronged, because Jiang Qingyue was not kidnapped this time.
Originally, the dark guard didn't notice that there was a problem, because it was Jiang Qingyue who walked into the room by himself, but he didn't come out after an hour, and there was no one inside...... The man is gone. ”
In the room, no one entered, and there was no sound of fighting inside, and the person disappeared silently, the result was obvious, it was Jiang Qingyue who walked by himself.
But how dare Liu Min say this? Didn't that hit the muzzle of the gun?
But Zhou Rui'an obviously thought of this, and his eyes became gloomy in an instant.
"Seal the city gates immediately, and all those who leave the city must be checked!" Zhou Ruian immediately ordered.
Liu Min hurriedly said: "Back to the emperor, when his subordinates received the news, they had already made their own decisions, and the portrait of Niangniang had been distributed to various city gates, as long as Niangniang appeared, he would definitely be able to find out!" ”
Zhou Ruian snorted, his brows were deeply locked, and his expression was obscure.
Liu Min hesitated for a moment before asking, "Do you want Luobei to bring someone to find it?" ”
Zhou Ruian didn't speak, Liu Min understood, he sighed, he saluted, and then retreated.
Xiao Fuzi saw Liu Min coming out outside the door, and said expressionlessly: "I really don't want to see you now, there is no good news every time." ”
Liu Min gave him a blank look: "Do you think I want to?" Do you know how terrible the emperor's expression was just now? After a pause, he couldn't help but say: "I don't understand, what is Jiang Qingyue thinking, the emperor is so good to her, what is she tossing?" ”
Who's to say it isn't?
