Chapter 49: The Fruit

As soon as the sky was bright, the day of the girder gradually warmed up.

His Royal Highness King Qi is painting in the palace.

Two days later is Xie Guifei's birthday, because the war has been decided, and now it can be regarded as the peace of the four seas, the emperor is ready to hold a big event, and invited a number of princes and ministers to enter the palace.

Although Concubine Xie is just a concubine, the second prince is a general who has made great contributions, so even if he doesn't sincerely wish his birthday, he still has to have a congratulatory gift.

Therefore, these days, the dignitaries and dignitaries outside have not been idle, and many people are busy choosing birthday gifts.

I heard that the "Jade Xuan" on Suzaku Street has been crowded recently, and many things on the counter have been robbed, but the shopkeeper has really made a lot of money.

There are also many people who ask distant relatives to look for curiosities, and they don't know if they find things or not, anyway, a lot of money is spent.

Everyone is busy, but Mozi Qi thinks about it and thinks that the best things in this Liang are in the palace, and Concubine Xie is the emperor's favorite concubine, what good things have you not seen?

Instead of spending a lot of money to buy it, it is better to offer a painting made by yourself, although it is not expensive, it is sincere.

Concubine Xie is not very old, although she has given birth to three children for Emperor Liang, she is only forty years old, so King Qi chose a very simple picture of a boy riding a crane, and he has just finished drawing the wings of the crane at this moment.

The attendant on the side sharpened the ink for him, and couldn't help but praise after reading it: "Your Highness has drawn so well." ”

The color of this crane feather is simple and pure, the body is elegant and elegant, and it makes people forget the vulgarity, which is really the best in the painting.

When Mo Ziqi heard the praise, he paused slightly, and after a while, he picked up the pen again, and quickly finished drawing the two crane claws, and then he raised his head and smiled: "This king asked you to learn, but you refused, and now you are amazed again?" ”

The waiter shrank his head and hurriedly waved his hand: "No, Your Highness, your subordinates are really not that material!" ”

Don't look at his name as a scholar, he sounds gentle and elegant, even if he is not a young man, he should be like a scholar, but since he was a child, he has been dancing knives and guns, flying eaves and walking walls, let him fight and kill or pass on news, and ask him to take a pen, which is more sad than asking him to die.

When Mo Ziqi saw him hiding, he couldn't help but laugh, and he didn't force it, and after a while, he simply changed the topic: "How did you do what you did?" ”

"Your Highness, rest assured, your subordinates have already done it."

Speaking of the category he was familiar with, the waiter suddenly became energetic, and said while continuing to help Mo Mo: "That Mingyue has been arranged by Concubine Jiang's side for many years, and this time her subordinates asked her to volunteer to go to Miss Jiang's side, and Concubine Jiang agreed." ”

Thinking about it, the waiter added another sentence: "I heard that Miss Jiang has ordered her to be the leading palace maid." ”

At the mention of the word "leader", he couldn't help laughing: "My subordinates really didn't know that Miss Jiang was so interesting." ”

Mo Ziqi was originally just listening silently and didn't interject, but when he heard this, he was a little puzzled: "What's interesting?" ”

The servant really served his master, who was not in a hurry, especially when he occasionally traveled outside the world, which could make people die in a hurry.

He put down the ink block in his hand and explained carefully: "Your Highness, there was no one around Miss Jiang, and now there is only Mingyue alone, what is the leading palace maid by herself, isn't it interesting?" ”

The waiter pouted: "When Miss Jiang brought it up, Concubine Jiang's expression was shocking enough, and when she turned around and entered her room, she died ridiculously!" However, Concubine Xi seems to have a good impression of Miss Jiang, and I don't know why. ”

yes, no wonder they find it funny.

Mo Ziqi hooked the corners of his lips, but did not speak.

I picked up the pen and went to paint again, but the tip of the pen had not yet fallen on the paper, and the book was interrupted.

"Your Highness doesn't think it's interesting?"

Mo Ziqi shook his head: "You don't understand." ”

"What don't subordinates understand?" The waiter scratched his head, looking inexplicable.

"You don't understand what Miss Jiang means." Mo Ziqi rarely explained seriously, "She did this with her own intentions, if you don't believe it, you will know in a few days." ”

The mystery is mysterious, and I don't know what I want to do.

The waiter crooked his mouth, and he really couldn't see the doting expressions of some people: "Oh, you don't understand what Miss Jiang means...... Believe it or not, you'll find out in a few days...... Huh......"

He said a few words, and he shivered disgustingly: "Your Highness, you are hopeless!" ”

Of course, Mo Ziqi ignored him.

Leaning over to paint carefully, and finishing the vermilion on the top of the crane, Mozi Qi suddenly stood up straight and looked up and said: "By the way, the fruit trees in the back garden are growing well, and some have already borne fruit. ”

The waiter was still clapping his arm with his hair standing on end, and when he heard this, he hurriedly smiled and responded, took two steps out and patted his head and turned back: "Your Highness, send ...... To whom? ”

Mo Ziqi glanced at him and didn't say anything.

The waiter was stunned at first, still thinking that just such a little fruit would be distributed to the emperor, the queen, and Concubine Xie, and now maybe he would have to add the likes of Concubine Xi, no matter how you look at it, it is not enough, and then when he saw King Qi's expression, he knew that he was thinking too much.

He let out an "ah", and suddenly smiled: "My subordinates know!" To Miss Jiang! ”

Of course, Jiang Mengyun didn't know that someone was silently paying for her behind her back, let alone that Mingyue was actually sent to her by Mo Ziqi.

She just instinctively saw kindness in Mingyue's eyes.

As a qualified intermediary, the ability to look at people is extremely important, which is the basis for her survival in troubled times.

But looking at people accurately is just to keep her alive, and if you want to live well, in addition to looking at people, you must also be able to read people's hearts.

Mingyue's kindness is true, but it may just be that her nature is not bad, and if she wants to get her loyalty, Jiang Mengyun feels that she should pay the price to match.

So she simply mentioned the matter of leading the palace maid to Concubine Xu, even though it looked funny at the moment, but the promotion was immediately visible.

Besides, in the future, Mingyue can't be the only one by her side.

Before coming to Liang, Jiang Mengyun had already tried to check that when the two countries were at war, his father and his brothers were killing in all directions, and the army of Liang was not an opponent at all.

You live or die on the battlefield, and you will naturally use all means to combat the opponent's arrogance outside the battlefield.

After the original general of Daliang was taken down by the second brother in front of the battle, the second prince Mo Chen was ordered to lead the troops to the battle.

Then Ning Guo retreated in defeat after defeat, and was snatched back dozens of cities by Daliang overnight.

The news that Empress Xue and Mrs. Jiang were distant relatives came out at that time.

This matter was not a secret in the Jiang family, but the mother and Empress Xue had no contact many years ago, and they didn't take it seriously.

But who expected that this news was suddenly taken out when the war was tight, adding fuel and vinegar to the nonsense, which made the people in the rear unstable and the army in the front.

In the end, it became the responsibility of the Jiang family for collaborating with the enemy.

One door up and down, destroyed overnight, who is her real enemy?

Prince Zhu Mingchao couldn't run, and Queen Xue couldn't run.

If it weren't for her correspondence with people but she had to write the names of her and her brothers, and the names of her mother, then even if Zhu Mingchao wanted to frame him, it would not be so easy.

Jiang Mengyun always felt that those things were all done by Empress Xue, so she tried her best to come to her, be her advisor, and win her trust, in order to one day take the news of Empress Xue when she believed in her the most, and then give her a fatal blow.

She wants to find out the sinners who really collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country in Ningguo, and she wants to return justice to the Jiang family.

But when she really came to Daliang, she realized that she was wrong.

Things may not be as simple as she thought.

Although Empress Xue is dedicated to protecting the country, her brain is not so smart.

The "Four Seasons" palace maid beside her looked more powerful, and indeed gave her a lot of ideas, but she couldn't do it so well at all.

Ming Xia is reckless and impulsive, Ming Qiu is cautious and soft, Ming Dong is short-sighted, only Ming Chun is more delicate.

Putting the news out on the occasion of the Liang's winning streak is naturally their handiwork, after all, not everyone can hear the name of the woman's girl, but the communication is not the work of Queen Xue.

There is a wrong, and there is a debtor.

The news released by "Four Seasons" was an introduction, Jiang Mengyun remembered in her heart one by one, Queen Xue had hatred and kindness towards her, and she also took notes, as for the real mastermind behind the scenes, she naturally couldn't let it go.

If her attitude is not clear, some people will be weak-minded.

Empress Xue had a weak heart, so she wanted Peony to look at her.

She made a way to move to Yuqi Pavilion, just to try, who else can't rest assured of her.

Mingyue on the side was helping her pack up her clothes, and when she took out only a dozen or so pieces, the box was bottomed out.

Mingyue was a little unbearable, and when she turned around to look, Jiang Mengyun was silently eating breakfast, and the rising sun shone in from outside the door, sprinkling on her body, coating her body with a layer of faint gold, looking extremely soft and warm.

Once upon a time, she was also a girl from the Great General's Mansion.

I heard that her family is all gone......

If it weren't for His Royal Highness King Qi who saved his mother that year, he would obviously have almost become a motherless child, how bitter a motherless child is, she hasn't seen it.

The son of the eldest uncle's family lost his mother, and he was almost bitten to death by a vicious dog in the village, but no one cared.

What's more, Miss Jiang is still a weak woman.

It's no wonder that His Royal Highness was distressed and took a big risk to let her think of something to serve.

Mingyue moved the clothes into the cabinet, and when she saw that Jiang Mengyun had finished eating, she came over and said: "Girl, your clothes are too few, and they are all summer clothes, our Liang's day is very cold, and the hot days are not a few days, or the slave maid will go to the concubine Niangniang, and let the Shangyi Bureau help you make two more new ones." ”

Jiang Mengyun didn't pay attention to these things, but he didn't know what the rules in the palace were, so he asked, "Is it okay?" ”

Mingyue laughed, and the two pear vortices suddenly came out to swagger through the market: "Naturally, you can." ”

Jiang Mengyun nodded: "Okay, then trouble you." ”

No woman thinks she has too much clothes.

The two were talking, and a scrambled voice came from outside.
