Chapter Ninety-One: The Fatal Point
、、、、、、、、、、 "Back to the princess, the slave maid is here to send you account books and gift slips for our aunt and grandmother, please take a look." As he spoke, Yun Se held the books and the red gift list in both hands.
Lingyu and Ziyao didn't go to pick it up.
Chu Jian smiled faintly and asked, "What is the account book and what is the gift list?" ”
Yun Se was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect that her attitude would be so cold when she first saw them, she had already said what she meant, she was sent by Aunt Du, Aunt Du's status in this palace is different from others, shouldn't the princess pay attention to it?
"It is the harvest of each village this month and the monthly share of each courtyard in the family, as well as the gifts prepared by the princess when she returns to the door tomorrow, this is a gift list, our aunt and grandmother said, princess, you are now the main mother of this family, and these account books should be for your purpose." Yun Se handed the book again, and looked straight at Hatsumi.
When he first saw her gaze, his eyes were condensed, Yun Se was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly lowered his head.
"Now this palace is Aunt Du in charge, and this account book is naturally Aunt Du's master, how can I have a reason to pass the purpose?" At first sight, his voice was flat and bland, and it was not particularly serious, but it made Yun Se feel a chill down his spine when he heard it.
"What our aunt means is that the princess is the head of the house in the palace, and she is just an agent, so this account book and gift list are sent to you for seeing." Yun Se's head was buried low.
A sneer pouted at the corner of her mouth when she first saw it, she was the head of the palace, but the account books were just sent to her for a look, not when she was in charge, what does this mean?
"Since Aunt Du is still acting as an agent, let her take care of it, now that I haven't really taken over this family, I don't have to get these account books to me." Now that she has only been in the door for two days, Aunt Du has sent the account books to her courtyard, what kind of intention is this? Do you want to test her or do you want to get off the horse?
Is there a problem with the account books? Qi is not complete? She doesn't know any of this, if she stays today, then in the future, when she is in charge of the house, if the profits and losses of these villages and the share of the various courtyards in the house are not clear, won't it become her responsibility?
Yun Se was a little surprised, didn't this little princess want to be this family anymore? I don't even look at the account book, and if I change it, don't you take it over immediately? "That'...... What about these gift lists? ”
"I'm afraid Miss Yunse took the wrong one, the old lady has already prepared the gifts that our princess will return to tomorrow, how can she let Aunt Du prepare them?" Zi Yao shouted loudly, where can the princess decide for herself the gift she wants to return to the door.
Yun Se was stunned for a moment, and almost wanted to answer, it was the old lady who asked Aunt Du to prepare! But she knew very well in her heart that she could not say this under any circumstances.
"You go back, just let your aunt and grandmother be the master, I don't have to read this account book gift list, when the time comes, I will be the housekeeper, and I will naturally take it right with your aunt and grandmother." Hatsumi waved his hand so that Yunse could leave.
Yun Se saw that the princess would not look at these account books and gift lists, and did not dare to stay any longer, so he hurriedly left the courtyard after saluting.
Looking at her back in the distance, Zi Yao sneered, "What does this Aunt Du want to do?" ”
Chu Jian glanced at Jin'er and Ming'er who were next to him, picked up the teacup and whispered, "This...... Only she knows. ”
Jin'er and Ming'er's eyes flashed, and their expressions were a little nervous.
Hatsumi smiled and put down the teacup, "It's not early, and I don't know if your prince wants to come back for dinner." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Qi Zhen's tall figure walking in from outside the door.
Chujian chuckled, got up and greeted him, took off the big coat for him and handed it to Lingyu to put away, "Have you finished talking about peace?" ”
"Hmm" Qi Zhen's face was a little ugly, and after he sat down, he pursed his lips tightly, answered in a low voice, and stopped talking.
I was slightly surprised at first sight, Qi Zhen seemed to be in a bad mood, did it have anything to do with it? She didn't ask again, and asked Lingyu to go and light all the lights in the house.
"Go and bring dinner!" The bright lights came on, and the first time I saw them, I gave Zi Yao and them a look, and asked them to take the little girls in the house down.
Na Jin'er and Ming'er looked at each other, as if they didn't want to leave, and after being glared at by Zi Yao, they followed them out of the house with their heads down.
Chujian sat next to Qi Zhen and looked at him worriedly, "What's wrong?" But he ......"
At first sight, she thought it was because Qi Zhen married her and was angry, although she didn't understand why she didn't want to see her, but she had a good relationship with Qi Zhen, Qi Zhen used to be a companion, and now that his brother married a woman he hated, he should be displeased.
Qi Zhen shook his head, his eyes were a little cold, and he interrupted the words of the first meeting, "It's not for you and my marriage." ”
At first sight, he already knew what she wanted to say before she could say it, but she was relieved to hear that it wasn't because of their marriage, "Why is that?" ”
Qi Zhen took a deep look at Hatsumi, he didn't want Hatsumi to know much about the things in the court, only he knew the darkness under the calm waves, but if he didn't tell Hatsumi about the upcoming changes, he would make her even more worried.
When I first saw it, because of Qi Zhen's silence, my face changed.
"Someone secretly wants to scrap the storage!" Qi Zhen finally said in a low voice, if someone wants to abolish the reserve, then as a prince, he will definitely not be able to escape this turbulent competition, he wants to be alone, it is difficult, with his relationship, even if he does not let Yun Wangfu be in danger, others will not let Yun Wangfu go.
When she saw the shock at first, she couldn't turn around in her mind for a while, someone wanted to abolish the storage and what happened to them, but when she thought about it deeply, she suddenly felt a chill down her spine, once it was abolished, Yunwangfu was afraid that it would also suffer.
"If you have done nothing wrong, can others do it if they want to?" When she saw her face pale at first sight, she didn't understand the court situation, but she also knew how cruel the battle for the throne was to others, who was so troublesome, it was the queen who came out, the inheritance status was a matter of course, and the prince had been established for so many years, did she still want to have a tragedy of Kowloon seizing the heir?
Qi Qi said coldly, "This has nothing to do with whether you have done anything wrong, since you have shown ambition to abolish the reserve, even if you have not done anything wrong, you will become unforgivable." ”
Chu Xiang sighed slightly, "Haven't those emperors already sealed their titles and left Ningcheng?" Do you still secretly want to compete for the position? ”
Qi Zhen's eyes were cold, and there was a sneer on his lips, "It's not necessarily that other emperors want to compete for the throne, but some people who don't know how to advance and retreat after being favored form a party and want to stir up a frenzy in the court!" ”
Chu Jian opened his mouth, his throat was a little bitter, "It's the Nine Emperors...... Want to fight? ”
She could finally understand why Qi Zhen's mood would be so heavy, if it weren't for the Nine Emperors who had a very close relationship with Qi Zhen, anyone who wanted to compete for the throne, he would not hesitate to help, but now this person is the Nine Emperors......
It's the Nine Emperors who look carefree, childish and cute.
Qi Zhen looked at Chu Jian, his eyes were shining at her soft face, he took her into his arms, and said in a low voice, "First time, I am the prince, whether it is or the Nine Emperors, they will not let the Yun Wangfu stand by." ”
Hatsumi buried his face in his chest and sighed lowly, "Is this what I came to tell you today?" ”
Qi Zhen said, "I just received a secret report, so I urgently returned to Nancheng, and today I came to ask if I have seen the Nine Emperors." ”
"Suspicious of you?" Qi Zhen was in Ningcheng, but he didn't know anything about someone wanting to step down, and he didn't notify him to take precautions, so it was inevitable to suspect Qi Zhen.
Qi Zhen smiled faintly, "Things in the court are stormy, don't worry, no matter what happens in the future, I will definitely be able to protect the Yunwang Mansion and protect you from a little harm." ”
Chu Jian replied softly, she knew that Qi Zhen didn't want her to know much about the affairs of the court, he wanted to protect her, she understood, but she also knew that no matter how prosperous and peaceful the society was, there was always a lot of corruption and collusion in secret.
Do the Nine Emperors want to compete for the throne? Can you fight? These are the restless ambitions of that Xu Guifei, right? She doesn't think he's a good person, but he's a good leader, and he has that courage! He has been in office for so many years, and there must be more people who support him than those who support the Nine Emperors, not to mention that he has made countless meritorious contributions over the years, and there are even more people who want to serve him under him.
The Nine Emperors wanted to fight with him, but they were afraid that they would hit the stone with an egg.
"Okay, let's not talk about that, let's eat!" Qi Zhen patted Chujian's shoulder, showing a reassuring smile, he came to him today, just to ask him to get closer to the Nine Emperors, as for what changes will happen next, then we can only wait and see what happens.
"Well, I'm hungry too." Chu Jian replied with a smile, as soon as they finished speaking, Lingyu and Ziyao had already come in with food.
"What are you doing in the house in the afternoon?" Qi Zhen asked her softly for the first time when he saw the vegetables.
Hatsumi smiled, "After sleeping for most of the day, I feel like I'm about to become a pig." ”
Qi Zhen chuckled, "Well, that's not bad, plump up, you're still a little thinner." ”
Chu Xiang glanced at him with disgust, "It's too late for you to regret it now, since you have already relied on you, no matter how much you dislike it, don't want to leave me." ”
The two of them talked and laughed and ate, as if they had forgotten the heavy topic just now.
Suddenly, Chu Jian's face became pale, her hand holding the porcelain bowl trembled slightly, she looked at Qi Zhen with wide eyes, and her breathing was a little short.
"What's wrong?" Qi Zhen was frightened by her face and asked her urgently.
Hatsumi took a deep breath, trying to stabilize her frantic heartbeat, she pulled a dry laugh, "It's okay, I just remembered that tomorrow is the door, and suddenly I felt a little emotional, I haven't seen my mother for a few days, and I am very worried about it." ”
Qi Zhen smiled, "I will be able to see my mother-in-law tomorrow." ”
Hatsumi nodded indiscriminately, but the chill of fear in her heart spread to her whole body, and her hands and feet were cold.
It is true that he has made countless meritorious contributions, and it is true that he is proud of his political achievements, but ...... It doesn't mean that he doesn't have a handle in the hands of others.
He and Cui Yin are a fatal gap.
