Chapter 543: The Wei family became a new upstart in the capital

On the day of Laba, the good news from Jiangsu and Zhejiang came.

The anti-Japanese army of Taizhou Mansion led by Wei Mingting fought a beautiful counterattack.

This battle was fought more heartily and vigorously than every previous battle, and the warships built by the Qin kings played an important role in this battle.

The anti-Japanese army led by Wei Mingting sank more than half of the ships of the Japanese in newly built warships, directly beating them to the ground and fleeing, so that they did not even have a chance to land on the shore.

This time, due to the limited time, there were three warships, and each warship was barely equipped with four Shenwu cannons, so it was already able to have such a great effect.

It would have been better if the Ministry of Industry had been given more time.

At that time, not to mention directly blocking the Japanese at sea and directly beating them back to their hometowns, it is also possible to chase them to the Japanese country.

The news of this great victory seemed to be a ray of dawn shining into the dark clouds hanging over the head of the Great Cause Empire, dispelling the haze that had been permeating for a long time.

The emperor was happy, and the whole court celebrated.

The emperor was happy, and ordered to reward Wei Mingting and other soldiers who had made meritorious contributions.

Among them, Wei Mingting was promoted to deputy general and general Guangwei.

Xu Zhengyong's official position remained unchanged, but his title was promoted to General Zhaowu.

And both were richly rewarded.

The emperor also specially allowed some of the soldiers of the anti-Japanese army to go home to visit relatives, Wei Mingting and Xu Zhengyong both got permission, the two staggered time, Wei Mingting could return home for the New Year, and Xu Zhengyong had to wait until the New Year.

This promotion made Wei Mingting the fastest-promoted general in recent years, and the momentum was close to that of Old Lady Lu and Xu Guogong back then.

In addition, Wei Yichen and Wei Ruo are both recent figures in the capital.

For a time, the Wei family was in the limelight and became an upstart in the capital.

In contrast, the impact of the fall of the Qi family on the Zhongyi Bofu can be said to be minimal, because it is the Wei family's big house and second room that have contact with the Qi family, and now the person who is favored by the emperor is the third room of the Wei family.

Originally, the Wei family begged to see the people who couldn't see them, but now they all handed over the greetings to the old lady Wei.

The Marquis of Xuanping, who had a marriage contract with Wei Ruo before and was finally canceled, also sent someone to send gifts and congratulations, making it clear that he was currying favor with the Wei family.

The favor of the Wei family made Yuwang Chuheng regain his attention to Wei Qingwan.

On the night of the emperor's decree to promote Wei Mingting, Yuwang Chuheng stayed overnight in Cui Tingxuan for the first time and pampered Wei Qingwan.

Wei Qingwan never thought that she would have the day to be favored by King Yu again.

Wei Qingwan's heart was as sweet as honey.

Regardless of whether King Yu still has a chance to become a prince, he is at least a prince.

can be favored by the prince, she can always have a good situation, just like Princess Huai today, everyone is envious.

Wei Qingwan was flushed and asked Cuihe to help her dress up.

Qi Shijing walked straight in without being informed.

Seeing this, Wei Qingwan got up and said goodbye: "My sister has seen the princess's sister." ”

"My sister worked hard yesterday, so drink this bowl of soup and make up for it." Qi Shijing said to Wei Qingwan with a smile.

Wei Qingwan looked suspicious, glanced at the black medicine in the hand of the maid next to Qi Shijing, and frowned: "Thank you Sister Princess for putting this medicine here first, and my sister will take it later." ”

"I'm afraid this won't work, and it's best to drink it while it's hot." Qi Shijing said.

"Sister, is this really a tonic?" Wei Qingwan asked.

"Sister, you just drink it as if it were a tonic."

"Sister, sister wants to hear the truth."

"In that case, it doesn't hurt if I talk to you directly." Qi Shijing replied, "This is indeed not a tonic, but a child-avoiding soup." ”

Hearing this, Wei Qingwan's expression turned cold, and then she resolutely refused: "Sister Shu can't drink this medicine." ”

"Sister, what do you mean by that? Has the sister forgotten the rules in this palace? If the main palace does not have children, the rest of the people in the palace cannot get pregnant. ”

This is the first time that Qi Shijing has called herself "Bengong" to Wei Qingwan.

Wei Qingwan did not flinch because of this: "Sister, I'm sorry, I know you will blame me, but if the concubine really wants to spread the branches for the prince." ”

Qi Shijing's eyes suddenly turned cold.

"Wei Qingwan, I treated you well when you first entered the palace, and you repay me like this now?"

"Sister, the concubine doesn't dare, the concubine still respects you in her heart, but the matter of the heir still needs to be decided by the prince, if the prince wants the concubine to drink this avoidance soup, the concubine has nothing to say." Wei Qingwan replied.

Seeing Wei Qingwan's appearance, Qi Shijing smiled: "This palace really didn't see it at the beginning, you still have this thought, I really underestimated you." ”

"The concubine doesn't dare." Wei Qingwan lowered her head, looking well-behaved and obedient.

"You have to drink this nodium soup today no matter what!" Saying that, Qi Shijing ordered Tingxue to do it, grabbed Wei Qingwan, and directly poured medicine on her.

Wei Qingwan struggled to resist, and Cuihe also stepped forward to help.

But Qi Shijing brought more people, and soon subdued Wei Qingwan and Cuihe.

Just when Qi Shijing was about to give Wei Qingwan medicine, Chu Heng rushed to hear the news.

"What are you doing here?" Chu Heng's face was furious.

"Cousin, according to the rules of the palace, after Concubine Wei went to bed last night, she should take the Shunzi soup today." Qi Shijing replied.

Chu Heng looked at Wei Qingwan, only to see that her eyes were red, pear blossoms were raining, and her appearance was very cute.

Her eyes looking at Chu Heng were full of grievances.

Chu Heng opened his mouth and said: "The rules of the palace are that concubines are not allowed to get pregnant before you, Wanwan is a side concubine, and her identity is different, this rule does not apply to her." ”

Qi Shijing was stunned for a moment, and finally saw her current situation clearly in Chu Heng's cold gaze.

Yes, the Qi family has fallen, and she can't help her cousin anymore.

And Wei Qingwan is just the opposite, the Wei family is now rising, and her father and brother are the upstarts in the court.

Qi Shijing thought about it and saw Chu Heng hugging Wei Qingwan into her arms and comforting her softly.

Qi Shijing looked at the two of them with a white face and walked into the inner room together.

Qi Shijing had no choice but to leave Cui Tingxuan with her people.

After that, Chu Heng arranged a few maids for Wei Qingwan to send for her.

For a while, Wei Qingwan and Qi Shijing's situation in King Yu's Mansion changed one hundred and eighty degrees.

Seeing the wind and rudder, the people of the palace began to snub Wei Qingwan, but they snubbed Qi Shijing.

This made Wei Qingwan suddenly sober up, she had always just wanted to climb up by herself, but in fact, a woman still needs her mother's strength to be able to stand in the house.

"Cuihe, prepare gifts, let's go back to the Wei family." Wei Qingwan decided.

"When is Miss going? The slave maid will go and inform the Bofu first, right? ”

"No need, I don't need to go back to my parents' house so much."

After Wei Qingwan finished speaking, she urged Cuihe and Mama Li to prepare the worship service.

Then he immediately set off for Zhongyi Bofu.
