Chapter 485: Vena City
After having a grasp, Xia Qingyang simply let it go.
Now it seems that she was right.
"The Queen Mother's side didn't react, which means that her old man acquiesced to everything." Xia Qingyang turned his head to look at the wall on the left-hand side, and on the other side of the wall was Ren Yi's room, "I guess, the Queen Mother must know the true purpose of Her Highness's trip, so she helped us cover it up." ”
Empress Yin was taken aback and confirmed in a low voice: "You mean, the Queen Mother knows that the eldest princess is going to be opposed?" ”
"Hmm."
"How can this be...... The queen mother has always disapproved of the eldest princess meddling in court politics. "Over the years, Queen Yin has been sandwiched between her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, but she has heard a lot of bitterness," Ren Yi has complained to me many times, saying that when Ren Fu ascended the throne, it was the Queen Mother who stopped her. ”
Empress Yin told Xia Qingyang about the grievances Ren Yi suffered back then.
Bystander Qing, Xia Qingyang, as an outsider who has not experienced all this, can see it at a glance: "If the Queen Mother hadn't done that back then, I'm afraid that even Ren Yi's life would not be saved." ”
“……”
"The eldest prince and the second prince both died 'accidentally' tragically, and the most painful person should be the queen mother. Do you think, with the strong personality of the Queen Mother, if she was not afraid of affecting Ren Yi, then using Ren Yi's forces to suppress Ren Fu was the choice she would make. But she didn't. ”
This can only show that there was indeed someone who made the Queen Mother jealous at that time, and it was most likely the staff member who was invited by Fu Fu.
And, the Queen Mother really doesn't want to lose Ren Yi. She didn't even want Ren Yi to be involved in this.
"People are about to be in their twilight years, they have lost their husbands and children, the only remaining son has been bewitched, and traitors are popular." Xia Qingyang shook his head, "It's really not easy for the Queen Mother to survive these alone, let Dachun survive for so many years, and do her best to push Ren Yi out of the turmoil." ”
On the surface, Qu Rushuang is extremely harsh and cold, but at least for Ren Yi, Qu Rushuang has done everything that a feudal emperor's mother can do.
It's just that this love is indeed a little restrained and obscure for Ren Yi.
"Qingyang." Empress Yin suddenly called her.
"Huh?"
"You understand so well."
This time, Xia Qingyang was stunned.
Yes, if she hadn't experienced so much in the dungeon, she would probably still have avoided family affection. How can you stand in the perspective of your parents to understand the Queen Mother's approach.
Empress Yin: "Since the Queen Mother is secretly supporting, our situation can be eased a lot." ”
In the huge Dachun Kingdom, there is finally a person who is really on their side, with greater energy
pc。
It's really reassuring.
Xia Qingyang nodded: "I have to let Sister Shuyu and them protect the Queen Mother well." ”
"Do you want to tell the eldest princess about this?"
"Not yet. After all, the Queen Mother and her old man didn't break this layer of window paper, maybe there are still some concerns. ”
"Okay."
After chatting, Xia Qingyang went to Ren Yi's room with Queen Yin.
On how to rescue Zuo Cheng's family, the three of them discussed in detail.
Because they were in a hurry, they changed their plans at the last minute, did not stay here overnight, and immediately set off after replenishing the supplies needed for the journey.
Before leaving, Xia Qingyang sent the plan they had discussed, and the Flying Eagle Messenger to Su Quan and the others who were on the front line, and asked them to advance the first half of the first half.
Therefore, when Xia Qingyang and his entourage arrived in Vena City three days later, the plan had already started step by step.
-
It is said that in this Dachun country, except for the capital, the rest of the land is divided by the "city and county system".
For example, Vena City.
There is one main city, and a number of subordinate counties and towns.
Further down the county town, there are a number of villages.
Chengguan county, county management village.
Therefore, it is called the city and county system.
"In other words, the counties and towns where we stayed before belong to Xiazhou City. It's almost time to reach the boundary of Vena City? ”
In the rickety carriage, Xia Qingyang listened to Ren Yi's popular science and concluded.
Ren Yi bowed: "In addition to the capital, there are five cities. My fiefdom is the farthest 'Ning'an City' from Beijing. ”
Xia Qingyang was a little emotional.
Looking at it this way, the first emperor really loved Ren Yi, and even directly assigned such a large territory to Ren Yi as a fief.
"What's the use of having land and no people?"
Probably seeing through Xia Qingyang's thoughts, Ren Yi laughed slightly self-deprecatingly.
Xia Qingyang lifted the curtains of the car and looked at the street.
They were now driving on the main road that was about to enter the city. There are often tea houses or post stations on the roadside.
It is close to the main city, so it is naturally more prosperous.
I'm afraid that Ren Yi's Ning'an City will not have such a scene.
Empress Yin suddenly thought of something: "If I'm not mistaken, this city lord of Luoshu City seems to have some kinship with Shuyu?" ”
Oh? And her concubine?
Xia Qingyang lowered the curtains and looked at it curiously.
When she made the plan before, she only knew that the city lord of this Vena City was named Fan Xi. He used to be a Beijing official, but he was transferred here. He is a good official who is not very courageous, but he is still honest and honest. Other information is less clear.
Ren Yi thought for a while: "Yes, Fan Xi's daughter married into An Youcheng's family last year. ”
I see.
This is the first time I've heard of it.
Xia Qingyang remembered this.
At this time, Lin Menglong, who was driving, knocked on the partition and reported to Ren Yi that they were about to arrive at the gate of Vena City.
"According to the plan, when entering the city this time, His Highness will directly reveal his identity." Xia Qingyang did not forget to remind.
Ren Yi snorted: "This Fan Xi is a regular person, knowing that I am coming, he will definitely come to greet him." ”
It is also to welcome, to prepare for banquets, and to arrange accommodation, and this set of processes will waste a lot of time.
"Then Xuanniang and I will get off here first and go to meet my two senior brothers."
"Okay, stay safe."
Ren Yi nodded, and asked Lin Menglong to find a secluded and uninhabited place for the two of them to park.
-
At this time, in the city lord's mansion of Vena City.
A short, thin, slightly bald man was carefully calling the middle-aged man in front of the case.
"City Lord, City Lord?"
I saw that the middle-aged man seemed to be extremely sleepy. He still held the pen in his hand, his back was still upright, but his head was already drooping.
The short and thin man was a little unbearable, but he still accentuated his tone: "City Lord, wake up." ”
Being called like this, the middle-aged man was frightened, sat up straight, looked around, and didn't see anything unusual, only then did he realize that he was asleep.
“…… Master, go and pour me a cup of tea. ”
"City Lord, you better go back to your room and catch up on sleep. Yesterday, I didn't sleep all night in order to catch those homeless people, and your body can't bear it. ”
"Then what about these people, you come to settle them."
"What else are you going to settle into, they have the audacity to stop the exiled prisoners, they should have been locked up and sentenced......"
"Nope." The middle-aged man wiped his face with his hand, "The sentence is not good." ”
