Chapter 254: Acting Impartially
(Cat pounces Chinese) Qin Yang didn't say anything, his smile was even stronger, and he pressed Wen Wanrong down and rolled into the bed, and the curtain was too late to put down.
A period of charm filled up the gap between the two, entanglement from body to heart, until he was exhausted, Qin Yang fell asleep for a while, but Wen Wanrong lay in his arms and thought of what the Qi family had done, and couldn't let go...... Two days later, in Renshou Palace, as usual, the province was fixed, and laughter came from time to time in the inner hall.
The two grandmothers and Wen Wanrong accompanied the Queen Mother to play leaf cards, and the Queen Mother won more than ten in a row, she was in a good mood, and she saw that the atmosphere outside the window was good, and she wanted to go to the Imperial Garden for a walk, and Wen Wanrong naturally accompanied her.
The Queen Mother was happy and quiet, and only brought two old grandmothers who were waiting for her to go with her. The imperial garden is full of spring and purple and red, lined with pavilions and water pavilions a little more vibrant, three steps, one scene, five steps and one painting, which is particularly pleasing to the eye.
The Queen Mother was tired of walking, so she rested in a gazebo, Wen Wanrong beat her legs while asking Mama to serve tea to quench her thirst.
"The mourning family has seen it, the prince and grandson are your most intimate." The Queen Mother saw that fine sweat was pouring on her forehead, and she pulled her up in distress and sat on the empty seat next to her.
Wen Wanrong has never been arrogant or impatient in the palace, bowing her head and smiling, respecting filial piety and doing her duty. The queen mother looked at the royal granddaughter in front of her with red lips and white teeth, bright eyes, and a very standard appearance, the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, took Wen Wanrong's hand, and asked about her life in Qinfu.
Wen Wanrong replied one by one, not forgetting to smear gold on Qin Yang's face: "Although General Qin is busy with official business, he will take time to care about his granddaughter and the county lord every day when he returns home, but it is difficult for him." ”
"If only he cares about you." The Queen Mother bowed slightly, tasted the tea, and said,
"Qin Juma was born in the Zhumen family, it is inevitable that there are some bad problems of the gentlemen, his reputation in Yandu was not very good before, the mourning family has always been worried that you will be wronged in the past, and now seeing that your husband and wife are deeply in love, the mourning family is also relieved." Being able to get the care and praise of the Queen Mother, Wen Wanrong was a little embarrassed, and said against her will: "Please rest assured that the granddaughter is not wronged in the Qin family, and the Qin Horse treats the granddaughter as a guest and cares for her relatives." But he sighed in his heart, Qin Yang didn't know the meaning of respecting each other in his life.
After a short period of emotion, she regained her smiling face, accompanied the Queen Mother, and talked to herself, as if she had no intention of pulling Qi Chen's head.
Although the queen mother is in the palace, she is not ignorant of the outside world, especially the old minister in the court suddenly fell seriously ill, her old man can't help but care, and now Wen Wanrong also mentioned this matter, there must be two more sentences: "Qi Chen is the head of the civil officials, it is not inappropriate for you and Qin Juma to visit, a few days ago, the mourning family heard that Qi Chenxiang and Qin Juma were arguing in the court, and they were worried that the two families would not be angry for the old feud, and they wanted to worry more." "So-called
"The old thing", Wen Wanrong's mind is clear, and no matter how sad she is, the Queen Mother doesn't worry about it at all. In front of the officials who came and went to the mansion, the Qi family relied on the momentum of the ministers, and deliberately snubbed Qin Yang a junior, what the meaning is, and a discerning person can understand it at a glance.
Qin Yang was dismissed, and it was true that he was angry at her, but in all fairness, the Qi family was so frivolous, and Wen Wanrong couldn't be happy.
On the one hand, she is the identity of Mrs. Qin, and refuting Qin's face is refuting the face of the Qin family; On the other hand, she is now in and out, and no one in the officialdom knows that she is Princess Wanyi who returned to the royal family halfway, and she neglects the horse master, and probably doesn't take her as a princess in her eyes.
In the past, she swallowed her anger because no one was reliable, but now it is not what it used to be, Qin Yang protected her tightly and did not let her suffer half of the grievances, which is an indisputable fact.
It is also an indisputable fact that he met, knew and fell in love with Qin Yang. How could she watch her beloved sit and be indifferent.
Wen Wanrong calmed down her dissatisfaction, and when the words came to her mouth, they turned into another method: "What the imperial grandmother mentioned is that the grandson often reminds Qin Juma in private, don't embarrass the imperial uncle because of discord with other officials, and the military general is a rough man, but he is an open-minded person." The Queen Mother believes that if you are bold in killing on the battlefield, you must have hills and ravines in your mind, otherwise you can't afford it
the words "General Protector"; Moreover, Qin Yang must bow down to everything in the big war and be conscientious, as for the shortcomings, weigh the pros and cons, no one is perfect, and ignore it.
Wen Wanrong saw the Queen Mother nodding, and while observing the words, she continued: "When the horse master learned about the mourning of the Qi Mansion, he thought of the feelings of his colleagues, and pulled his grandson to go to mourn together. ”
"The Qi family is so serious?" The Queen Mother choked her wrists and sighed. Wen Wanrong then put on a regretful expression, and echoed: "Now that the Qi Mansion does not even preside over the overall situation, the grandson and the concubine are worried about disturbing Qi Chen and the two ladies to recuperate, so they have not met, but fortunately, the loyal servants of the Qi family are saddled before and after the horse to avoid embarrassment." The last two sentences sound subtle.
The queen mother suddenly, the princess and the concubine visited the minister's mansion, and the whole process was only accompanied by the next person, and it is unknown whether the head of the mansion was sick or borrowed.
But the royal family only sent people to send them away, thinking that the princess's face was not big enough? The Queen Mother's face changed, and in order to show justice, she asked Wen Wanrong which other important ministers of the court came to the door that day?
Wen Wanrong elaborated on the old housekeeper's words word for word: "The housekeeper of the Qi Mansion, the ministers of Qi are too sad, Lord Ji and Lord Yan went three times in a row, and took turns to persuade the ministers and ministers, not daring to be careless. "That is to say, Lord Ji and Lord Yan were by Qi Chenxiang's side that day, a squire of the Criminal Department, and a newly appointed deputy imperial envoy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, is it higher than the princess, the concubine, and the general who protects the country?
"Spread the message of mourning for the family, and tomorrow the imperial doctor will visit Qi Chen, asking him to recover as soon as possible and share the emperor's worries." The Queen Mother spoke in a deep tone and glanced at the old lady beside her.
The old lady understood and took the order to retreat. Tai Hospital received the order of the Queen Mother, how dare he slack off, the second morning went to Qi Mansion, carefully took the pulse and prescribed prescriptions, and came back after a course of treatment, if there were any problems on the way, he was on call.
When Ji Shilang and Deputy Yan Yushi entered the Weeping Flower Gate, the old housekeeper of the Qi Mansion happened to send the imperial doctor out. The three of them passed by and nodded in a salute.
Ji Shilang is Qi You's father-in-law, and he is the same party and faction of Qi Chen, so the relationship is naturally close; And Yan Deputy Yushi is Mrs. Qi's husband, and was a student of Qi Chenxiang's disciples, and has been promoted by teachers many times along the way, one thinks of the teacher-student relationship, and the other thinks of Mrs. Qi's deep husband and wife, although he has become a widower, he still has a lot of relationship with the Qi family.
When these two people learned that the imperial doctor was sent by the Queen Mother, they couldn't help frowning. Then in front of Qi Chenxiang, Deputy Yu Shi Yan didn't dare to say much considering his seniority, Ji Shilang thought about it again and again, and persuaded in a low voice: "Lord Qi, the virtuous nephew is dead, and we are also saddened, but you should listen to our advice that day, and you should not snub General Qin and his wife, especially the young lady, but Princess Wanyi." "Otherwise, how to explain that the Queen Mother did not send a doctor in the morning, and did not send a doctor in the evening, but after Qin Yang and his wife came to the door, the Queen Mother made a move?
This is not a concern, it is an admonition. Qi Chen leaned on the head of the bed, knowing it, but said with great compassion: "What Brother Ji said is true, but the old man has been an official for decades, and he has always been cautious and conscientious, and he should have enjoyed the joy of inheriting happiness under his knees, but he lost three children one after another, do you still want to be aggrieved!" ”
"This ......" Ji Shilang was speechless for a while, unable to think of any words of comfort. Deputy Yan Yushi shook his head lightly at him.
Ji Shilang used the excuse of going to see his daughter and avoided it for the time being. In the house, Deputy Yu Shi and Qi Chenxiang wiped the tears from the corners of their eyes, and sighed leisurely: "This game, if it doesn't succeed, it will become a benevolent, your third brother lost, and he lost completely, and he blamed the old man for underestimating those bastards." After a heartfelt remark, Deputy Yushi Yan listened to it in his heart, and heard the sound outside the strings, he hurriedly got up and bowed, expressing his intentions: "Please rest assured, the third brother's hatred student has been recorded, and the student will not dishonor the teacher's reputation!" Just when the teachers and students were in their hearts, Ji Shilang found his daughter Ji Lan in Qi You's study.
Ji Lan's appearance is very ordinary among everyone's ladies, and she is not even as good-looking as Miss Wen, but she has a gentle temperament, and she is full of poetry and books, but she is an out-and-out scholarly woman, the only one who is less than a young woman is a concubine, the Ji family's housemother died early, and her biological mother helped the main room, and she did not go to the family tree until she was thirteen years old.
It is precisely because of this deficiency that the prospective in-law's family disliked it and withdrew from her family, she was once disheartened, and she was no longer picky, and she also married.
So she and Qi You couldn't talk about Qin Se and Ming, but Qi You would never dare to despise her like Wen Si, and the two lived peacefully.
As for the relationship, Ji Lan has to get by, Qi You goes to Fan Lane to find a girl on the grounds of entertainment, and the life of the couple is extremely bland.
Now that Qi You is dead, Ji Lan should cry as a wife, but after Qi You was buried, the little sadness that was not deep gradually dispersed.
Ji Shilang saw that his daughter was sitting in the study and reading a miscellaneous book, so he was so anxious that he threw his sleeves.
"Lan'er, do you still have the leisure to hide here and read?" He stepped forward, took out the book in Ji Lan's hand, threw it aside, and taught,
"Mr. Su Ri taught you in vain? Did you know that you made a big mistake the other day? Ji Lan didn't expect her father to suddenly look for her, and when she got up to salute, she said suspiciously: "My daughter has always been careful to follow the teachings of her father-in-law and mother-in-law, and she doesn't dare to exceed half a point, I don't know what mistakes have been made, please correct my father." Ji Shilang knew that Ji Lan was shallow about interpersonal relationships, and sighed: "My father asked you, was there a General Qin among the guests a few days ago?" Ji Lan read the guest booklet, was a little impressed, and nodded obediently: "After being reminded by my father, there is indeed such a person." Ji Shilang asked, "Where were you at that time?" Ji Lan pointed to the door and replied honestly: "A few days ago, my mother-in-law cried and fainted a few times, and my daughter stayed by my mother-in-law's side to take care of her, and the housekeeper passed on her father-in-law's intentions on behalf of her, so that her daughter could serve her side well, and she didn't have to worry about the things in the front yard, and she didn't have to show up." Ji Shilang frowned when he heard this: "It's really the minister's?" Ji Lan's expression was honest, and she nodded again and again: "The daughter doesn't dare to deceive her father, before leaving the cabinet, her mother taught her daughter "Female Ring" and "Female Training", her father-in-law is from the Qi family, he doesn't open his mouth, how dare his daughter act recklessly." Ji Shilang couldn't spoil Qi Chen's face in front of his seniors, it can be seen that Ji Lan looked ignorant, and sighed: "Daughter, the rules are dead, people are alive, why are you so confused!" Do you know who the wife of General Qin's family is? Ji Lan shook her head: "My daughter doesn't know." Ji Shilang patted his head, his head was big, and he said eagerly: "It's Princess Wanyi who is recognized by the Holy Lord today!" Ji Lan's eyes widened, her face was red and white, and she was also anxious: "Father, my daughter really doesn't know that General Qin's wife is Her Royal Highness the Princess!" How, what to do? Ji Shilang didn't mean to scare, but when he saw that his daughter was like a headless fly without the backbone, he was distressed and anxious: "What do you want to do for your father, Qi Chenxiang, the minister's wife said that he was sick and didn't see it, and he still had to pass, and you didn't come forward to receive it for a lifetime. ”
"My daughter didn't think about it so much at the time." Only then did Ji Lan understand that he had been negligent for a while, and what trouble had happened, so he grabbed Ji Shilang's sleeve and asked in a panic,
"Father, can this matter be remedied?"
"There must be a way." Ji Shilang frowned, patted Ji Lan's hand, and told her not to panic,
"You have been staying in Qi Mansion honestly for the past few days, and you are clever in everything, I will discuss a foolproof way with your mother to take you back to the house." Ji Lan nodded as if he was pecking rice: "My daughter is all arranged by her parents." When Ji Shilang left the study, he looked at the blue sky and sighed heavily.
When he and Deputy Yan Yushi left, they rode in the same carriage, and the two of them on the road had dark faces and thoughts.
In the end, Jiang is old and spicy, Ji Shilang secretly observed Deputy Yushi Yan, and then understood Qi Chenxiang, roughly guessed the content of the conversation between the two teachers and students, and asked tentatively: "Why is Deputy Yushi Yan worried?" Deputy Yan Yushi sighed: "Teacher, he ......" half of the words stopped, closed his eyes and leaned back: "Worrying about things, no." The more he didn't, the more sure Ji Shilang was of his guess, hesitated for a moment, and reminded: "Now, the border is unstable and war may start at any time, we should focus on the overall situation, and work hard for the emperor, rather than personal gains and losses." ”
"Master Ji has to be." Deputy Yan Yushi was sitting in danger and bowed his hands. But on the other hand, he was in a dilemma, and asked Ji Shilang for advice: "Master Ji, a teacher for one day and a father for life, students can't bear the pain and suffering of the teacher, and they don't dare to be disloyal and disobedient, how is it good?" Ji Shilang groaned slightly and gave
The four words "impartiality" are mentioned, and there is nothing else to say. Deputy Yan Yushi is a person who understands, and when he goes back to the house, he ponders it carefully and thinks of a way to do both.
Things have come to this point, there is no way back, everyone can only move forward. Three days later, Wen Wanrong had just returned home, and Holly waited at the Weeping Flower Gate and handed over a letter by hand.
"Who's?" Wen Wanrong looked at the font on the envelope, it was very unfamiliar. Holly replied in a low voice: "What the Ji family sent was a letter written by Mrs. Ji Shao. "Mrs. Ji?
Wen Wanrong was slightly stunned, and came back to her senses: "Qi You's new lady? ”
"Yes."
"Why did she send the letter?" Wen Wanrong looked at the name of the person who signed the letter, and didn't remember what she had in touch with Ji Lan, so she walked into the courtyard while cursoryly scanning the content of the letter.
Holly said on the side: "It was the Ji family's housekeeper who sent the letter, and she repeatedly compensated for it, Mrs. Ji was not sensible, she broke the etiquette, it was the Ji family's improper tutoring, and asked Mrs. and the second master if they could appreciate their faces, and went to Juxian Pavilion for a light meal to apologize." "Juxian Pavilion casually eats a meal to see the price is not a light meal, the Ji family has a good relationship, most likely because of the Qi family's neglect of Qin Yang, what the Ji family did at this time has a great intention of protecting themselves.
On the letter, Ji Lan was sincere, and planned to come to the door to apologize in person, but he accidentally contracted a cold, and he was afraid that he would be sick to the Qi family, so he moved back to his parents' house to recuperate during the extraordinary period.
Wen Wanrong didn't want to make enemies on all sides, and told the Queen Mother that she just wanted to knock on the Qi family, but she didn't expect the Qi family to move, and others were anxious first, but it was okay to do this, at least see everyone's position clearly.
She thought for a moment and said to Holly: "You send some nourishing herbs to Ji's mansion, so that Mrs. Ji can rest and recuperate, and nothing more than mourning." Holly took the order.
At the end of noon, the maid who delivered the things came back and told Holly that Ji Lan was very sick and burned twice in a row, and she couldn't get out of bed.
When the news reached Wen Wanrong's ears again, she had just taken a nap when she saw Holly coming and went to the hall to talk.
The so-called ignorant is not guilty, not to mention that Ji Lan is very sick, Wen Wanrong didn't take the previous things to heart, and when Qin Yang came back for dinner, she mentioned it, so that he knew in his heart.
Qin Yang is subordinate to the Privy Council, and he has little contact with the Criminal Department, more than one thing is better than less thing, there is no need to eat, and the court is safe.
As for Ji Lan, the crime is not light, she took two cold showers in the middle of the night, and it is strange that she does not have a fever, but for the sake of the Ji family and her father's official career, she must endure it, and it can be regarded as eating a trench and growing wise.
This Ji family survived in the contradiction between the two great families of Qi Qin, and after reading the official documents and documents left by Qi You, Deputy Yan Yushi took the time to go to Dali Temple.
Although Yan Deputy Yushi is one level higher than the official of Dali Temple, he is a courtesy, and he gives people the first impression like a humble gentleman.
Danze didn't dare to slack off, invited someone to take a seat, and made tea himself. Deputy Yan Yushi opened his mouth and said with a smile: "Dan Siqing doesn't have to be polite, Yan is here for private matters today, and he will leave in a few words." Dan Ze brought the teacup, handed it over, and said respectfully: "What advice does Lord Yan have, please speak in detail, and listen to me." Deputy Yan Yushi took the cup with both hands, and asked Dan Ze to sit down even again, smiled, and his tone revealed a little sadness, and said: "Dan Siqing, Yan said bluntly, can you describe the process of Qi You's murder in detail again, I want to give him justice, so as to send it to his soul." "I asked from the Criminal Department before, and now the deputy imperial envoy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate has also come to ask, and Dan Ze is not surprised, the same panic is just repeated.
After hearing this, Deputy Yushi Yan also asked the same question from the Criminal Department: "At that time, Dan Siqing was a person, and he was weak, why didn't he call his colleagues to go to the rescue." Dan Siqing lowered his eyes, the same question, the same answer: "It was dark at night, and it was in the woods, and it was not easy to find the direction in the panic, I was anxious to find Qi Qidu, and when I came back to my senses, I was already alone." "It's urgent, it's understandable.
Deputy Yan Yushi asked again: "Why do you only have a head and a body?" Dan Siqing clenched the teacup and shook his head: "I don't know about my humble duties, and I didn't find it when I searched around." ”
"It's cruel." Deputy Yan Yushi clenched his fists. Cat flutter Chinese
