Chapter 524: Something Happens in the Capital
Except for Du Jinning and Qi Muyuan, everyone hardly slept well in the examination room, and they were highly nervous for three days and three nights, and now they are already exhausted; It's still sticky and uncomfortable. At this time, everyone just wants to go home and take a shower and sleep well, and they don't think about anything else, so when they heard Guan Jiaze's suggestion, everyone felt that it was true.
"Let's do it, let's meet tomorrow at the Jade Food. Guan Jiaze came from afar, and we should pick up the wind and wash the dust for him. Du Jinning said.
"Okay."
"No problem."
Everyone responded.
Yu Zhai is a restaurant jointly opened by Du Jinning and Qi Muyuan, and everyone will go there from time to time to make a tooth sacrifice. Guan Jiaze came back from the capital, so he naturally had to pick up the wind and wash the dust for him in the restaurant.
Make an appointment for the time and place of the meeting, and everyone disperses. Guan Jiaze was picked up by someone; Fang Shaohua and Xu Chengyuan lived not far from the Gongyuan, and the two walked back; Du Jinning, Qi Muyuan and Liang Xiankuan got into the carriage and sent Liang Xiankuan home first.
The carriage stopped at the door of Liang's house, Du Jinning watched Liang Xiankuan get out of the car, and said to him: "We will wait for you at the door for a while, if there is nothing big at home, you send your personal servant to come out and tell us; If you and the little guy don't come out, we'll go back and ask someone to come in and have a look. ”
Liang Xiankuan nodded gratefully: "Okay." ”
Not long after he entered the door, he came out in person and said to the two people in the carriage: "It should be that something happened in Beijing, and the housekeeper in my house heard the news and came back to inquire." He said to Qi Muyuan, "I think your grandfather didn't wait for you to go back first, and it has something to do with it." ”
Qi Muyuan nodded: "Then I'll go back and ask my grandfather, you can go back and rest quickly." ”
Wang Fulai drove the carriage away from the Liang family, Du Jinning asked: "Isn't it the ...... in Beijing" She pointed to the sky, "Something is wrong?" ”
Qi Muyuan bowed: "It should be." It is estimated that Guan Jiaze came back so late, and it has something to do with this. It seems that this problem has been a few days old, and it is only now reaching Gui Province. ”
The two of them glanced at each other, and their expressions were a little solemn.
The emperor in Beijing has been in poor health for a long time. He didn't know what to think, and he never set up a prince, which led to the princes fighting for each other, ready to move, and the ministers of the court and the central government were also panicked.
To say that there was an accident in Beijing, it was just that the emperor's health deteriorated further and the battle for the succession became white-hot, and maybe a result could be fought for in a few days.
Du Jinning's own identity is not enough, no matter what happens in Jingzhong, it has nothing to do with her, and it will not affect her in a short time. But Guan Lehe, Qi Bokun, Fang Shaohua's maternal grandfather, Liang Xiankuan's father and others are all deeply involved in the political whirlpool in Beijing, and the slightest carelessness will cause a big disaster, and she is naturally very concerned about this.
Not to mention Qi Muyuan. Not to mention Qi Bokun, his father is still serving as a big Si Nong in Beijing. The Qi family is involved in the issue of standing in line, once the next emperor is not the eldest prince supported by the Qi family, after the new emperor ascends the throne, the Qi family may be liquidated.
When Du Jinning saw Qi Muyuan, who had always been calm, his lips pursed lightly at this time, and his slender fingers clenched tightly into fists, he knew that he was worried in his heart, and couldn't help but comfort: "Don't worry too much, with your grandfather's ability, even if you can't make a big profit in this incident, it's no problem to retreat." Think about it, your grandfather has been avoiding going to the capital for the past few years. ”
In her opinion, Qi Bokun's political wisdom is very good, at least not to the point of being desperate for the sake of profit.
Although Qi Bokun returned to Lishui County at the beginning, it was because of the other party's framing that he had to come back to avoid his edge. But after so many years, he really wants to return to officialdom, and he doesn't know how many opportunities there are. But he didn't, and he stayed steadily in this remote place in Gui Province, watching the fire from the other side. And Qi Muyuan's father and uncle have his grandfather's Dinghai God Needle, and they will not rush to the front if they want to. In this way, the Qi family can still protect themselves well in this political struggle, and there is no need to worry about it at all.
As for the Guan family, because they remain neutral, there is nothing to worry about.
Qi Muyuan naturally knew this truth, but his parents and younger brother were in Beijing, so it was inevitable that he was a little uneasy. And......
He raised his eyes, looked at Du Jinning, and said in a low voice, "I'm worried that my grandfather will go to the capital." ”
Du Jinning was stunned, thought for a while, and said: "If your grandfather goes to the capital, it must be a great opportunity to make a profit." Don't worry. ”
Qi Bokun is an old fox. If he goes into battle in person, then eighty percent of it will be very profitable, and the danger will be small. Otherwise, he wouldn't have ventured.
Qi Muyuan nodded.
He knows all this, but it only involves his closest relatives, and it is inevitable that he will be concerned about it.
As he spoke, the carriage had already driven into Hulu Lane, and Du Jinning ordered: "Go directly to Qi Mansion." ”
The carriage stopped in front of the gate of the Qi Mansion, and the old man Shen saw the carriage coming from a distance, and was already waiting at the door, and as soon as Qi Muyuan's figure appeared at the door of the carriage, he greeted him and said in a low voice: "Young master, the old lady has gone back to Beijing with the housekeeper, so that you can take the exam with peace of mind, don't worry about him." ”
When Du Jinning heard this, he got out of the carriage and patted Qi Muyuan on the shoulder: "You can only be qualified to share the worries of your family if you are admitted to the Juren and Jinshi, otherwise it will be useless." So your exams are also crucial for your family. Don't think about it so much, go back and take a shower, eat something and sleep, and you'll have to fight again in two days. ”
Old man Shen hurriedly said: "The old lady also explained this before leaving. ”
Qi Muyuan looked at Du Jinning's starry eyes as black as ink, and nodded silently.
"I'm going back, and someone is calling me." Du Jinning waved his hand, didn't get into the car again, and walked back home.
Chen and Du Fanghui were already waiting at home, and Du Jinning waited for her to take a bath, eat and rest as soon as she got home.
The next day, Du Jinning got up early in the morning and went to Qi's house, and learned that Qi Muyuan got up early to practice martial arts as usual, and his emotions were still calm, so he was relieved.
She was about to go home, but she was pulled by Qi Muyuan: "Eat breakfast with me." ”
"No problem." Du Jinning smiled, turned his head and unceremoniously ordered food with Guanqi, "I want to eat soup dumplings and a bowl of salty tofu brain." ”
"Yes, Young Master Du." Guan Qi answered, turned his head and ordered the maid in the house to go to the kitchen to spread the word.
"You go to the study first, I'll come over after taking a shower." Qi Muyuan took the cloth towel that Liu Gao threw over to wipe his sweat and said to Du Jinning.
“…… Good. Du Jinning saw Liu Gao walking towards him, and hurriedly ran as fast as a rabbit.
Seeing this, Liu Gao couldn't help but laugh and said, "This kid is running fast, I still want to nag him a few words." ”
In the past two years, Qi Muyuan has begun to grow stronger, but Du Jinning is still thin and thin like a little chicken, which makes Liu Gao, the "master" who has taught Du Jinning kung fu for a few days, see her in the martial arts training field, and can't help but want to nag a few words.
