Chapter 118: Temptation
After Zhou Yuqi listened, he motioned for Dark Er to go out, and he sat behind the bookcase for a long time before instructing the guards to push him to the main courtyard.
"From now on, the prince will take medicine every morning, and I will come after noon to administer the needle. Big things can't be delayed, medicinal materials are extremely difficult to find, and if you delay, your efforts will be wasted. Su Moyue said while getting off the needle.
"Got it." Zhou Yuqi's words were as cold as yesterday, and Su Moyue's face darkened.
The two didn't speak again, one lying on his stomach in a daze, the other thinking wandering.
Zhou Yuqi suddenly wanted to test Su Moyue, so he said, "What do you think Yuan Qianyu and Lin Ziyu would do if they got married?" Yuan Qianyu's temperament, if he marries in Liaodong, it will be a good thing to think about it. ”
"Nope." Su Moyue didn't think about it, so she categorically refused.
Zhou Yuqi smiled bitterly, "Why?" ”
"Yuan Qianyu was born in the Pingxi County Palace. If the Yuan family and the King of Liao marry, the emperor will be jealous, right? Su Moyue moved out for this reason.
"What if there is a way to make my father not afraid? Do you think it's appropriate? Zhou Yuqi continued to ask.
Su Moyue thought for a while and said, "That's not appropriate, don't mess with the mandarin duck spectrum." ”
These two people, one is a daughter, and the other has a heart, and they would rather be a monk than get married.
If this is forcibly tied together, something must happen.
Zhou Yuqi heard the nervousness in Su Moyue's words, and his heart was clear, it seemed that his guess was indeed correct.
It's just that Su Moyue has a simple temperament, and she may not have noticed Lin Ziyu's thoughts.
Su Moyue was very afraid that Lin Ziyu's marriage would be remembered, so she said again, "I want to come to King Liao has his own thoughts, so let him make his own decisions." ”
"Well, don't worry, this king knows it." Zhou Yuqi said lightly, as if he had made some promise.
Su Moyue didn't hear the meaning of Zhou Yuqi's words, and when the needle was finished, she told Zhou Yuqi not to be angry this month.
After leaving King Jing's Mansion, she went to the Nine Pavilions.
When he entered, only Suzaku was there, and Su Moyue asked, "Is the ghost boy there?" I haven't seen him in a long time. ”
Suzaku asked, "Where are you from?" ”
"King Jing's Mansion, I just finished administering the needle to His Royal Highness King Jing."
The corners of Suzaku's mouth twitched twice unconsciously when he heard this, if the ghost boy was there at this time, there would really be a ghost.
"He's got things to do, and we haven't seen much these days." Suzaku had to explain vaguely.
Afraid that Su Moyue would continue to ask, she changed the topic, "Most of your Su family's industry is now in the Nine Pavilions. ”
Sure enough, Su Moyue immediately asked, "That person lost?" ”
"Well, whoever wants to do it here is going to go bankrupt." The face under the Suzaku mask smiled charmingly.
"Then put it in a separate package, and use it when you can't keep it." Su Moyue said.
Thinking of the 30,000 taels of dowry that Su Wenche owed her, I wondered in my heart when I would ask for one.
After talking nonsense with Suzaku for a while, Su Moyue went back to Shen's house.
As soon as he was about to go to the inner courtyard, he found a team of sergeants standing at the door of his uncle Shen Ye's study, looking at the clothes, it was not the forbidden army in Beijing, but it looked like a person from northern Xinjiang.
Su Moyue's expression moved, and she walked towards the study.
"Uncle, can I go in?" Su Moyue asked at the door.
"Come in." After a while, Shen Ye's voice came out.
Su Moyue didn't think much about it, so she pushed the door in.
As soon as I entered, I found that my sixth cousin, Shen Shishu, was sitting on a chair by the window.
"Sixth cousin? When did you get back? Su Moyue asked in surprise.
Shen Shishu was a little helpless, if it wasn't for the fact that he hadn't finished speaking, he wouldn't have been bumped into by Su Moyue.
"I just came back and talked to my father about something." Shen Shishu said.
Su Moyue didn't think much about it and asked, "Uncle, I see that the people at the door are from the Northern Xinjiang Army?" But what happened? ”
Shen Ye nodded solemnly, "Those people are your eldest cousin's personal guards, and they came back under the pretext of bringing me medicine." Now the war in northern Xinjiang is fierce, the commander is incompetent, and the people are displaced. Your eldest cousin is asking me if I want to make a move. ”
Su Moyue sat down next to Shen Shishu, and while listening to Shen Ye, she lowered her head and pondered.
"Uncle, let's stay put. If the eldest cousin takes over the northern Xinjiang and then uses thunderous means to repel the Northern Qi, what will the emperor think? The emperor will feel that Northern Xinjiang is being played by the Shen family, and the previous injuries are also hidden. ”
It's not that Su Moyue is ruthless, it's just that war is like this, they can't be benevolent to women, and soft-heartedness is a taboo for generals.
Shen Ye said: "His Royal Highness King Jing also sent a message to your eldest cousin, and it is also like what you said. It's just that your eldest cousin has been in northern Xinjiang for many years, and the people are in dire straits now, and he can't do anything, so he will inevitably be a little impatient. ”
Su Moyue thought for a while and said, "I still have some silver taels in my hand, I'll make more gold sore medicine in the evening, and let a few of them take it back." In the border war, the most bitter people are the people, and we can help some. ”
Shen Shishu also said: "That's fine, cousin, prepare more medicine, silver doesn't have medicine and food to work." ”
Su Moyue nodded, and was about to go back to prepare.
Before going out, Shen Shishu instructed: "Don't tell your grandmother that I'm back, I'm going to leave soon." ”
"Got it." Su Moyue knew that Shen Shishu must have his own business, so she didn't ask much.
After she left, the father and son of the Shen family talked for a long time before Shen Shishu turned the window and left.
Su Moyue and Cuilan were busy until late, and after dinner, the Jin family and the Chen family also came to help.
In the end, I packed two boxes of prepared medicines, and brought a cart of commonly used medicinal materials.
If it weren't for those guards who said to bring as few things as possible, Chen and Jin would be eager to load three or five cars.
When they finally left, they didn't bring the commonly used medicinal materials, they only brought the prepared medicine on their backs, and hurried back to the northern Xinjiang.
On the eighth birthday of the Queen Mother in February, preparations are being made in the palace these days, and Beijing will also celebrate it in a big way.
Early in the morning of the sixth day of the second month, the main courtyard of King Jing's Mansion.
"Lord Wang, I'm afraid I'm going to enter Beijing this morning." Mo Yan said outside Zhou Yuqi's bedroom.
"This king is in court today." Zhou Yuqi said.
Because he was not in good health, the emperor did not require him to go to court every day.
Unless there is something important to discuss, it is up to him whether he goes or not.
Zhou Yuqi knew the news of the destruction of Xuanhua Mansion in Northern Xinjiang the day before, but the battle report just arrived today.
After Lin Ziyu received the banquet, he also began to go to the court, which was considered to be subordinate to the military department.
As soon as he got off the carriage at the palace gate, he saw Zhou Chengyan who also got off the carriage.
It's just that Zhou Chengyan walked with a little limp.
Lin Ziyu couldn't help but laugh in his heart, His Royal Highness the Yan King was really resistant.
Since that day, he has gone to the Liao Wangfu every day to learn from Lin Ziyu, and of course he was beaten back every time.
So much so that in the past few days, Lin Ziyu has made his hands much lighter, and he faintly sympathizes with Zhou Chengyan in his heart.
"Brother Ziyu, did you sleep well last night?" Zhou Chengyan asked with a smile.
