Ling Xin picked up the tea on the table and drank it down, "If you are more careful, you can see that someone has just escorted King Qi into the city." ”

"Then why does Master Hou have a bad face?"

Chang Shan was not afraid of death and asked again.

"After dawn, you will lead someone to escort the King of Qi into Beijing. ”

Dropping such a sentence, Ling Xin went directly into the back room and fell asleep.

The flying pigeon passed the book earlier than the army reported, so that the court hall on the next day was full of cheers, Ning Xiang listened to the words of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military all kinds of praise of Yasukuni, and the face of the eldest princess appeared in his mind, and a cold sweat broke out on her back unnaturally.

I'm afraid she saw through her little bit of caution at the time, right?

Thinking of this, he immediately stood more respectfully.

In the past few days, the court has been lifeless, and the military report from Dongtingbo's flying pigeon can be said to have swept away the previous haze.

The wrinkles that the Queen Mother had added in the past few days also unfolded suddenly.

"Now that the King of Qi has been captured, someone still needs to go to the fiefdom of the King of Qi in Shandong, who do you think is suitable?"

Someone immediately jumped out: "Queen Mother, King Qi's rebellion is a big crime, and the minister thinks that it is most appropriate to send someone from the Criminal Department to go, and to escort the family of King Qi into Beijing, and to confiscate the property of King Qi." ”

It is a thankless errand to escort the family members of the King of Qi into Beijing, after all, the nobles in Beijing are not related to each other, and marriages between major families are not uncommon.

But since the violent death of the few people cultivated by Concubine Shu on the list explained by Qiu Chan, it is very important to draw a line with the rebellious Qi Wangfu at this moment.

But I can't take any family property, this is a fat difference.

"The minister thinks that it is most appropriate for the criminal department and the household department to send one person each, and there will be no confusion in each performing their duties. ”

Tian Yushi, the most honest and fair in the entire court, stood up.

The Queen Mother looked at Ning Xiang, who had been silent.

"What do you think of Ning Xiang?"

Ning Xiang raised his head to meet the eyes of the Queen Mother, and the smile of the princess who protected the country came out of his mind again, and the little abacus that had been made in his heart was immediately thrown aside.

"The minister thinks that what Tian Yushi said is reasonable. ”

"Ning is really a role model for us, if I remember correctly, Princess Qi is Ning Xiang's cousin. ”

"When King Qi rebelled, Ning Xiang was bent on sending someone to negotiate peace. ”

Ning Xiang suddenly became the target of everyone, and everyone attacked him one after another, after all, the backyard of the Qi Palace's mansion was not less than the relatives of His Royal Highness.

"Enough, the court is noisy, you still don't feel ashamed enough?"

The Queen Mother roared angrily, and the court suddenly calmed down.

"Ning Xiang has done his best for the country, although Princess Qi is Ning Xiang's cousin, but the mourning family believes in Ning Xiang's character, before the first emperor died, he entrusted the emperor to Ning Xiang, in order to show justice, it is better to ask Ning Xiang to follow him. ”

Ning Xiang raised his head to the face of the Queen Mother, who was extremely trusting, and had no other thoughts except kowtow and thank you.

Han Rui stood behind the pillar on the side of the Jinluan Hall and listened to the words of the ministers, and then looked at Ning Xiang's sincere and frightened appearance, and really admired the Queen Mother in her heart.

In this era of male supremacy, it is even more difficult for a woman's family to be a widow to take power, after all, not everyone is Wu Zetian, but the Queen Mother sat very well, she quietly looked at everyone's careful thoughts, and then balanced them.

She went back to the Churui Palace to sleep with confidence, and the result was very good anyway.

Seeing that she was in a good mood, Rouge couldn't help but say, "Princess, let's drink the medicine obediently after you go back, otherwise the Queen Mother will be worried." ”

Thinking of the bitter and astringent concoction, she suddenly vomited out what she had eaten overnight.

"Eat, I'll eat. ”

She ran fast ahead.

After returning to the Churui Palace, Rouge personally went to bring the medicine in and stood aside without leaving, looking like he had to see her drink it.

"Okay, I'll eat it, but it's still steaming, hot, why don't you go and get me a few plates of candied plums." ”

Rouge pouted angrily: "Don't worry, princess, the slave and maid are ready." ”

She took out a small plate from behind her, and there were a few red plums piled up on the snow-white plate, and there was hoarfrost on the plums, and the best benefit of crossing over was probably to eat well, and any modern delicacies that could not be eaten could be eaten here, of course, thinking of the roles and responsibilities that he had passed through, he should eat better.

She understood and threw a plum into her mouth, and with a bitter face, she was about to pinch her nose and pour the medicine into it.

"Second sister, I see that you are almost the same, it is a medicine that is three points poisonous, so it is better to forget this medicine today. ”

There was a nice sound outside the door, and at this moment, it was like a heavenly sound in Han Rui's ears.

The fourth princess lifted the curtain and came in, still carrying a food box in her hand.

"Rouge, I see that the second sister is much better, this medicine will be exempted today, I specially consulted the imperial doctor to make a medicinal diet, it is better to let the second sister try it." ”

Opened the food box and took out a can of fragrant soup, smelling the fragrance, but after pouring it out, I didn't see any oil stars.

Han Rui snatched the bowl and tasted a small bite, her eyes widened, and she couldn't wait to serve it again.

"Second sister, your body has just improved, you shouldn't eat too much, just this bowl today. ”

After speaking, he asked the personal palace maid to take the rest of the soup away, which made Han Rui feel uncomfortable, and he could only throw the plate of candied plums in front of him into his mouth one by one.

"Thank you for the friendship of the fourth sister, it's just that you are a princess, you don't need to cook yourself, these rough jobs are done by your own palace people. ”

Feeling that there was finally some taste in her mouth, she noticed a small incision in the fourth princess's left index finger, which at first glance was left when she was chopping vegetables.

"I'm used to it, it doesn't matter, my concubine used to be in poor health, and the meals sent by the imperial dining room were not palatable, so I often cooked. ”

She immediately retracted her left hand under the table.

"That's not good, once upon a time, now now, today I want to mention it to the queen mother, choose a horse for you as soon as possible, the son of the minister of the court, do you like it?"

She took the hand of the fourth princess, and ordered the palace people to bring the medicine, carefully medicated her, and wrapped it in a clean cotton cloth.

"I'm still young, and I want to spend a few more years with my concubine. ”

The fourth princess squirmed.

"In early summer, I want to go to the palace to escape the summer, and when the time comes, I will have the opportunity to see those children of the family, you can take a good look, if you like it, just tell me, I will go and tell the queen mother. ”

"Thank you, second sister. ”

Ling Xin once again bulldozed the traitors in the Jokhang country, not only Han Rui, but even the Queen Mother was in a good mood, and that night, she sent someone to invite Han Rui to dinner.

When I arrived at Zhaoyang Palace, I found that in addition to myself and the four princesses of the Young Emperor, I also arrived.

Seeing her come in, the fourth princess hurriedly got up and saluted.

"Fourth sister, sit down. ”

In front of the Queen Mother, the fourth princess was very restrained, and she had to wait for her to sit down before she dared to sit down dignifiedly.

"Today's war is successful, the traitor King Qi is on the way to Beijing, the big stone in the heart of the mourning family has finally fallen, the emperor is still young, this country and the mourning family are struggling to support, and the mourning family can do their best to get to this point. ”

With such an opening remark, Han Rui sensitively noticed that there were still words behind her, not to mention that the Queen Mother summoned the fourth sister today, it is said that the Queen Mother basically ignored the fourth sister in the past, and it may be the first time that she was summoned to Zhaoyang Palace for dinner so solemnly.

Anyway, she definitely didn't have the impression of it.

The queen mother's hard work and father saw it in his eyes, and asked the queen mother to pay attention to her body. ”

The delicacies on the table were steaming, and Han Rui sensitively wanted to cut off the Queen Mother's words.

"Yes, the hard work of the first emperor of this palace is in his eyes, and the first emperor you have done for the royal family will also be in his eyes. ”

She said this meaningfully, and then her eyes turned to the fourth princess.

Han Rui had an answer in her heart.

"Rong'er, you are not young now, and the mourning family wants to marry you to Ning Xiang's second son. ”

The fourth princess looked up at Han Rui in horror, her eyes were wide open, and the mist inside was clearly visible.

Before Han Rui could open her mouth, the Queen Mother glanced at her warningly, which clearly meant not to let her interfere.
