Chapter 7: A Great Change in Temperament
Since Shi Ting and Xiang Wanyi's funeral, Shi Yuqi has been silent. I don't go out, I nest in my yard all day long, looking decadent. Everyone in Qiyuan knew what their young lady was doing, but they didn't open their mouths to explain.
"Miss, the prime minister's wife is here." Qingzhu lifted the thick curtain to facilitate the noble lady behind him to enter.
Shi Yuqi put down his pen and got up to salute, "I've seen my aunt." ”
"Qi Niang has been suffering these days, so it's better to move to the Prime Minister's Mansion with the eldest aunt! It's good to have a response. Pity your young age...... Brother, brother, sister, how willing to leave you and go! Zhao Hongmei wiped her tears with a gesture, and took Shi Yuqi's hand and said sadly.
Shi Yuqi withdrew his hand without a trace, "The eldest aunt is serious. Looking at Shi Yuqi's lukewarm appearance, Zhao Hongmei felt bored, chattered for a long time, and told Shi Yuqi to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to live, let her take good care of her instead of her younger brothers and sisters, let them look at her, and then got up and left.
"Miss, why did the eldest master insist on taking you over?" Hanmei was studying ink for Shi Yuqi, and at the same time she was distressed about the meaning of the Shi family's big house. The emperor did not confiscate the Protector General's Mansion, so Shi Yuqi could naturally continue to live. Even if it is confiscated, with the family property left by Shi Ting, they will have enough to live for eight lifetimes. Why do you want to go under the fence and live by looking at other people's eyes?
Shi Yuqi didn't raise her head, and the brush in her hand was almost as long as half of her arm, "The family property left by Daddy is enough to make the whole capital red." "Shi Ting went to the battlefield at the age of thirteen, and died on the battlefield at the age of twenty-seven, in the middle of the fourteen years, in addition to Yu Lu, who was a general, there was also half of the family property that he received when he was divided, the rewards of the emperor and the ladies of the palace, and the spoils captured alone on the battlefield, Shi Yuqi is now also a person with a net worth of hundreds of millions.
"Isn't the eldest lord the general's own brother? How can you be jealous of your brother's family property? Hanmei's eyes glanced at Youlan, and sure enough, she saw Youlan's clear appearance.
Shi Yuqi didn't speak, Youlan smiled and spoke, "What is the identity of the eldest master of the Shi family?" ”
Hanmei Yanmo's hand paused, "The eldest master of the Shi family is ...... Adopted son of the family! ”
Shi Yuqi nodded, "Father said that when the family was separated, although my grandfather gave them the same amount of things, some of the things in my father's hands were better than those of my eldest uncle. Just like the same good land title deed, my father's can produce two crops of rice, and my uncle's can only produce one season of rice. The eldest uncle was probably uncomfortable in his heart, but he didn't say anything, and his father was not a person close to the eldest uncle, so naturally he wouldn't explain anything. The founding emperor of China favored the military generals, the military generals were once monstrous, and the previous emperors all desperately suppressed the military generals, emphasizing literature over military force, and the literati looked down on the military generals, only thinking that they were all a group of reckless people. Now that the emperor has ascended the throne and Fusang has invaded, many people have realized the importance of military generals, and the emperor has raised the status of military generals, and the situation of civil and military differentiation has begun to improve, but military generals are still not better than civil officials, and it is understandable for grandfathers to give more to their fathers. Now the eldest uncle is probably being picked up by the Zhao family to take over his father's inheritance. That's it, let's not talk about this, what does the outside say about me now? ”
"Where did someone say something? Miss was overwhelmed. Hanmei's eyes flickered, and she didn't dare to look directly at Shi Yuqi.
"Don't lie to me, it's probably rumored that my life is hard to defeat my relatives, it's a bad star from the sky, right?" Shi Yuqi dipped it in ink and wrote an excerpt with a pen.
Hanmei pouted, not wanting to speak, Youlan smiled, turned around and went out.
Hanmei, Youlan, Qingzhu, and Yaju are the companions selected by Xiang Wanyi to Shi Yuqi, and they are also cultivated according to the quota of the four big girls around Shi Yuqi. The four of them are about the same age as Shi Yuqi, except for Qingzhu, who is already seven years old, and the other three are all six years old.
Shi Yuqi's excerpt was handed over in Shi Ting's name, and there was a response within three days. His Majesty announced that he entered the palace for an audience.
In the imperial study, Shi Yuqi knelt down with a smile and saluted, and then got up with the emperor. Although he was smiling, the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes, and the emperor could see the silence in Shi Yuqi's eyes.
"You are General Shi's orphan?" The emperor narrowed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
"The people's girl is Shi Yuqi." Shi Yuqi nodded faintly.
Emperor Vantage nodded, indicating that he understood, "Why are you asking to see me?" ”
Shi Yuqi chuckled lightly and said bluntly, "Your Majesty, the people's daughter wants to make a deal with you." ”
"Bold!" Gonggong Wei angrily reprimanded, "Huangkou Xiao'er doesn't know the etiquette, and he still doesn't kneel down to ask His Majesty for guilt!" ”
Emperor Hua waved his hand to rebuke Gonggong Wei, a handsome face is not angry and arrogant, a beautiful man in his twenties, if it were not for the emperor, Shi Yuqi might have pounced on him to tease. But even if he wasn't the emperor, Shi Yuqi wasn't in the mood at this time.
Emperor Hua raised his eyebrows with interest, "Deal, you are a four-year-old doll, what kind of deal can you make with me?" ”
"The emperor killed the mastermind behind the framing of my father and my mother, and I will be the knife in the emperor's hand." Shi Yuqi smiled unruly. Of course, she can kill it herself, but she will definitely implicate a large group of people afterwards, such as the Shi Jiajun and even the people of Huaguo. Besides, God let her live again, and she didn't plan to die just like that.
Vantage narrowed his eyes dangerously, "How can I trust you?" Southern Xinjiang, Fusang, is not so easy to deal with. Besides, I have no shortage of obedient blades in my hands. ”
"What about the moths in our country?" Shi Yuqi smiled, and then his figure flashed, and the person immediately disappeared under the hall, and in a corner, Shi Yuqi's immature voice came, "Your Excellency, remember to put away the smell of your body next time you hide it." "A good Dark Guard can perfectly restrain his own aura, but he can't restrain his own predator's aura. Because, in this backward era, no one has been trained in modern high technology.
Long Yi felt a chill rise from behind him, but Shi Yuqi didn't take any weapons, just stood behind him. Long Yi is the leader of the Dragon Guard, and he is also the first person in the Dragon Guard, so his strength is naturally not a problem. But if Shi Yuqi had a dagger in his hand just now, the current Long Yi could only be a corpse.
Vantage naturally didn't think that Shi Yuqi was just a fluke, because the proudest thing about a secret guard was that they were more cautious than anyone else.
"If the emperor doesn't believe me, he should also trust Shi Jiajun, right?" Shi Yuqi returned to the center of the main hall, "This is half of the talisman, which can mobilize 200,000 Shi family troops." "The Shi family army is more than 400 years ago with the founding emperor of the Shi family ancestors to fight the world out of the army, I don't know for some reason, the successive emperors of China have never touched the Shi family, even if the successive emperors suppressed the generals or the Shi family took the initiative to return the military talisman, the Shi family is still not moving, and the military talisman will not be long before the emperor will let people return it. But after Shi Yuqi found her father's talisman, she knew why.
In short, Shi Yuqi is the last bloodline of the Shi family, and he is naturally the new head of the Shi family. If you want to find an alliance, there is absolutely no one more reliable than the emperor. Although the world says that the emperor is the most untrustworthy, for the real bloodline of the Shi family, the emperor is the greatest guarantee for the Shi family's life.
"Someone, the purpose! Shi Yuqi, the only daughter of the Shi family, is gentle and virtuous, and I inspired the merit of the general to protect the country, and accepted the orphan of the general as a righteous daughter, inherited her father's title, and was named the princess of the country. This is Vantage's appeasement of Shi Jiajun, and it is also Vantage's sincerity. And Shi Yuqi's sincerity is the talisman of the 200,000 army. It's just that sooner or later, the talisman will have to be returned to her.
"Thank you, Lord Long." Shi Yuqi knelt freely. Although the title is honored by the name of the place, the protector can be different from other auspicious names. If it is said that the name of the place is the emperor's favor, then the protection of the country is too heavy for the emperor's expectations.
