Chapter 783: Entering the Palace
Du Jinning's house in the capital is naturally still there, and when they left the capital, they left a family of four to guard the door. Qi Muyuan sent someone over yesterday, and the next person had already cleaned the yard where she was going to live.
Qi Muyuan naturally waited here early.
As soon as Du Jinning entered the door, he saw Qi Muyuan's handsome face, not to mention how happy he was.
The two didn't need to say much, they entered the house together and went to the courtyard where Du Jinning lived.
After settling Chimu and Zhou Yunsheng, and sending away the family of four who were guarding the house, only she and Qi Muyuan were left in the courtyard, Du Jinning asked, "Have you tried the emperor's style?" Can I get a Danshu Iron Ticket? ”
Qi Muyuan wrung a handful of hot towels in the basin, handed it to Du Jinning, and then looked at her and said, "Jinning, I have told my grandfather your true identity." ”
Du Jinning wiped his face for a moment, and turned his head to look at Qi Muyuan.
"What did Grandpa Qi say?" She asked.
Qi Muyuan laughed: "He is naturally very happy. He regretted that I was not a daughter, and I couldn't marry such an outstanding talent as you. Now that you have directly become a woman and are about to marry into the Qi family, his old man is about to go crazy with joy. ”
Du Jinning also laughed.
Originally, Qi Bokun thought that his grandson was a broken sleeve and was very desperate, and his biggest expectation for him was to marry a normal woman and have a son, so as not to have no successor when he was old, and he would be lonely for a lifetime and end up desolate. Therefore, even a woman like Su Xiu turned a blind eye to his old man's means.
Now I find that my grandson is not a broken sleeve, he likes a woman, and this woman is still the junior that his old man has always liked and valued. Qi Bokun's joy was beyond expectations, and Du Jinning could imagine it.
Qi Muyuan said again: "After I told him, he went to the palace and came back to tell me that he had negotiated with the emperor, and with your great merit this time, you will only be promoted to one level in your official position, but you will be compensated with a Danshu iron coupon." ”
Du Jinning nodded.
This was something she expected.
Qi Bokun was able to easily convince Zhao Yu, and she was not surprised at all. Because Zhao Yu has never been an obstacle for her to obtain the Danshu Iron Coupon, or in other words, even if she knows that she is a woman, as long as she can reasonably cover up the past and not force Zhao Yu to the point where she cannot explain to the ministers of the court, for the sake of Qi Bokun and Qi Muyuan, and her usefulness to the Great Song Dynasty, he will not want her life. This does him no good, but rather harmful.
The real obstacle lies in the Maison.
"What about the Maison?" She asked.
"In the family, my grandfather is also ready to deal with it." Qi Muyuan said the three-plate axe that Qi Bokun was about to stage in the court, and comforted Du Jinning, "Grandfather said that he is at least seventy percent sure, so you can rest assured." As long as you go to court tomorrow, this matter can be settled. ”
Du Jinning also knew that no one could give her a 100% guarantee that she would not get the Danshu iron coupon. Qi Bokun said that he was seventy percent sure, and he thought that it was the result of his exhaustion.
"There's Grandpa Lauzie."
Qi Muyuan waved his hand: "My grandfather is your grandfather, a family, what are you doing like this?" Isn't he helping his granddaughter-in-law? ”
Seeing that Du Jinning had finished wiping his face, he took the cloth towel, put it in the basin, and pulled Du Jinning to sit at the table: "I estimate that the palace will have to send someone to call you in a while, you hurry up and eat something first." ”
As he spoke, he put the food in the food box and lifted the chopsticks to Du Jinning.
For fear that the cooking of the few subordinates left behind by the Du family would not be to Du Jinning's taste, these meals were specially made for Du Jinning according to the dishes that Du Jinning liked.
The two of them have grown up together, they have seen each other's various indecent gestures, and they don't have to maintain a good image in front of each other at all.
Du Jinning was not polite, picked up the chopsticks and ate them, and asked Qi Muyuan while eating: "Do you want to have some?" ”
Qi Muyuan had already eaten, but it could be seen that she ate sweetly, and suddenly felt that she was hungry again, so she took a bowl and ate some food. But most of the time is for Du Jinning cloth dishes.
"Jin Ning, after getting the Danshu Iron Coupon, can we live together like this?" He looked at Du Jinning, who was sitting next to him eating, and asked.
Du Jinning paused, nodded and said, "It should be." ”
She raised her head and looked at Qi Muyuan: "When I come back from the palace, I will go to your house." I have something to say to Grandpa Qi. ”
As she spoke, she asked, "Are you free today?" ”
She knew that Qi Muyuan was very busy. Sometimes I get busy and don't go home for a few days. I don't know how to find the time to meet her.
Qi Muyuan is really busy, and he is putting down what he is doing to see Du Jinning at this time.
He is not only busy with business, he is ready for Du Jinning.
"Free." He said, "Your business is important, and you have to be free even if you are not available." ”
Du Jinning laughed, took a pair of chopsticks, and put the dishes that Qi Muyuan liked to eat in his bowl.
Qi Muyuan also gave her a chopstick dish.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Thinking about Zhao Yu, he was in a more anxious mood, and before Du Jinning finished eating, the bell under the corridor rang, and Chimu's voice sounded at the gate of the courtyard: "Young master, someone is coming from the palace." ”
Du Jinning had no choice but to put down his chopsticks, stood up, and responded, "Got it." ”
She looked at Qi Muyuan: "Are you going back or waiting here?" ”
Qi Muyuan also stood up: "Go back." I'm waiting for you at home. ”
Du Jinning nodded, raised his feet and walked outside.
It was inconvenient for Qi Muyuan to show up in front of the people in the palace, and when Du Jinning left the Du family, he called someone to pack up his things, and he rode back home.
Du Jinning followed the imperial guards who came to deliver the message into the palace, and after entering the door, he saw a little eunuch next to Zhao Yu waiting there.
Seeing her coming, the little eunuch immediately put on a smiling face and said, "Lord Du, please come with me." As he spoke, he walked ahead and led the way.
At this time, it was already completely dark, the little eunuch was carrying a lantern in his hand, and Du Jinning was following behind, only to feel that there was a huge palace, and it was a little scary. Fortunately, Zhao Yu's study was in the front hall, and when he walked for a short time, he saw the lights from a distance.
When Du Jinning saw it, he put his mind at ease and sped up under his feet. But suddenly I heard the sound of small pebbles rolling down next to me, and a woman shouted softly: "Master, be careful." ”
She turned her head and saw that there were three people standing next to the rockery over there, and the one standing at the front was Zhao Mingyue, who she hadn't seen for a year and a half.
The little eunuch also saw Zhao Mingyue, and hurriedly stopped, bowed down to Zhao Mingyue, and saluted: "Slave Xiao Dengzi, I have seen Her Royal Highness the eldest princess." ”
Zhao Mingyue didn't seem to see the little eunuch, her eyes only stared at Du Jinning.
Du Jinning secretly screamed in his heart, so he had to lower his head and give Zhao Mingyue a look: "Minister Du Jinning, I have seen Her Royal Highness the eldest princess." She didn't want to provoke Zhao Mingyue. If she knew that Zhao Mingyue was here, she would definitely ask Xiao Dengzi to take a detour.
