Chapter 47: Jiang Qiao'er
Fu Lingyi pretended to be calm and spoke, "The King of Duanyang County has something important to report?" β
Fu Yingyan lowered his eyebrows to hide the emotion in his eyes, and said distressedly: "There is no way for the minister. The attack on the princess of the county has never been fruitful, and yesterday the princess of the county was furious, scolding the ministers for not being able to support her and give her grievances, and returned to the Hou Mansion in a fit of anger. I came here today to know if there would be a result of the attack on the princess of the county? β
Today, he was thinking about asking about Jiang Yuhuan's assassination, so he was able to come to the main hall unimpeded.
Jiang Yuhuan is like a key that can open the door that blocks him.
Jiang Yuhuan said that God was unfair to her, but in his opinion, she was God's favorite.
The assassination of the princess of the county was supposed to be handed over to Dali Temple for investigation, but because it involved weapons, many people were involved, and many people were dissatisfied.
"The princess of the county is too anxious, it's only been a long time, how can there be results so soon."
"No results, but progress? The weapons are in the hands of the Ministry of Industry, and the arrows are made by the imperial court, and the Ministry of Industry should know where to go. Fu Yinglong's eyes swept over the Honglu Temple Qing who spoke, and fixed on the Ministry of Works.
The named Ministry of Industry Shangshu and the Ministry of Industry Squire glanced at each other, the Ministry of Industry Shangshu made a look, and the Ministry of Industry Squire Zuo Xiu stood up and replied: "The Ministry of Industry does have a batch of arrows taken away. The day before yesterday, Prince Rui said that he was going to hunt and took away a batch of arrows from the previous hunt. But yesterday the Rui prince sent people to say that before they could start hunting, the arrows were stolen. Judging from the number of arrow feathers recovered at the scene, it is not much different from the batch taken by Rui Wangye. β
Lin Shaoan, who was in charge of the case, also stood up, "Who stole the arrow, Dali Temple is still investigating, and the king of the county will be informed as soon as there is progress." β
In the end, Fu Lingyi played a round, "Now the case is still under investigation, and King Rui is involved, in case everyone misunderstands and has suspicions, so I want to tell you when the matter is clear." β
Fu last pointed, there is no result.
"I understand. The ministers did not disturb the emperor's deliberations with the ministers, and retired first. β
At this time, Fu Lingyi spoke up, "Since you are here, let's stay and listen." β
Fu Ying last did not shirk, it should be directly.
At the beginning of the year, the early dynasty retreated, and the hundred officials returned to their respective yamen.
Fu Ying Yan walked in the crowd, attracting a lot of attention, and they bowed their heads in groups and whispered.
Fu Ying lasted ignored everyone's gaze and calmly walked through the crowd and left.
"King Duanyang, please stay."
A shrill voice came from behind, Fu Ying Yan stopped, turned around, and saw Hong Nei Shi next to Fu Lingyi trotting over.
"The queen mother set up a flower-viewing banquet, and the princess of the county was also invited. The emperor heard that the county king and the county princess were having a conflict, and wanted to invite the county king to the flower viewing banquet to help the county king resolve the misunderstanding. β
"In this way, thank you to the emperor. The king's guards were waiting at the palace gate, and the Hong Nei servant had to send someone to say that he should go back first. β
"Yes, the king of the county will go to the imperial garden with the slave first."
On the way, Hong Nei sent a palace maid to the palace gate.
Waiting at the gate of the palace, Liu Yi didn't see Fu Ying last come out for a long time, and he was happy in his heart, knowing that his master had successfully gone to court. Little by little, the control disappeared, and the master was one step closer to getting his things back.
But when he saw that the officials had come out, his master was still nowhere to be seen and became worried.
He was the only one waiting at the gate of the palace, and the palace maid found someone at a glance.
"The king of Duanyang County has gone to the flower viewing banquet, let you go back first."
After speaking, the palace maid turned around and left.
Liuyi, who got the letter, drove the carriage alone, and on the way back, he met the carriage of Wen Sihou's mansion, he tilted his head and looked around, and saw the figure of Sanqi on the second carriage, so he beckoned, "Sanqi!" β
Sanqi, who heard Liuyi's voice, didn't respond immediately, she looked at Jiang Yuhuan, "Princess Jun, it's Liuyi." β
Jiang Yuhuan leaned lazily on the carriage, "Hmm." He's calling you, you should respond, maybe something's wrong. β
"Yes."
Sanqi lifted the curtain, "What's the matter?" β
"Ginger...... Is the princess in the car? β
"Let's go to the cherry blossom feast."
Sanqi answered the question, but Liuyi understood.
went to the flower viewing banquet, how could Jiang Yuhuan not be in the car.
He scratched his head, a little uncomfortable.
Seeing that the carriage was about to leave, he didn't care about the entanglement, and said: "The master has also gone to the flower viewing banquet, if you encounter difficulties, you can go to the master." β
Sanqi nodded to indicate that she knew, and she also understood that Liuyi's words were for Jiang Yuhuan.
The carriage moved, and Sanqi lowered the curtain and turned his head to look at Jiang Yuhuan.
Jiang Yuhuan held the pot of silver flowers in his hand, and took the trouble to trigger the mechanism to make the silver flowers bloom and close.
She and Zhongyuan both knew that it was sent by the young man last night.
"Princess Jun, in fact, the master has to prepare strange flowers."
Jiang Yuhuan didn't raise his head, and said casually: "Well, but I don't need it, this pot of flowers is what I need." β
Sanqi and Zhongyuan suddenly had an alarm bell in their hearts, and the two glanced at each other, and they both saw the panic in each other's eyes.
It's as if the other party is not talking about a pot of flowers, but people.
They began to struggle whether to tell their master the news of the boy's appearance last night.
Jiang Yuhuan noticed the lawsuit between the two of them, but she didn't see it, and continued to fiddle with the flowers in her hand.
Entering the palace gate, Sanqi and Zhongyuan were left outside, while Jiang Yuhuan got out of the car and stood with the people from Wen Sihou's Mansion.
Wen Sihou's Mansion is the county lord of Zhaohua who brought his daughter Jiang Qiao'er into the palace.
Since she returned to the Hou Mansion yesterday, the county lord of Zhaohua has not come to see her, nor has he sent anyone to greet her.
And she didn't want to go to the county lord of Zhaohua to say goodbye.
It's also a coincidence that we went out together this morning.
Jiang Qiaoer, as Jiang Xiangxiang said, looks like a cute girl.
The county lord of Zhaohua turned a blind eye to her, but Jiang Qiao'er could call her a big sister sweetly without any burden.
Now getting out of the car and looking at her face again, Jiang Qiao'er held Jiang Yuhuan like a familiar person, and said to herself.
Lord Zhaohua just glanced at it and didn't stop it.
Jiang Yuhuan responded to two sentences from time to time, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart How could Jiang Qiao'er have so much to say.
As soon as she entered the Imperial Garden, Jiang Qiao'er pulled Jiang Yuhuan to greet her little sister.
Jiang Yuhuan looked at her little sisters, and raised her eyebrows lightly, God really helped her.
"You didn't recuperate in the mansion, why did you still come to the flower viewing banquet?"
Jiang Yuhuan raised his hand and stroked his forehead wrapped in gauze, where there was still a faint pain. The thought of having to leave a scar in the future made her feel unhappy.
She suppressed her anger and said softly, "The queen mother personally posted it, and it is not good to live up to the mother's wishes." It's you, why are you here? β
"Why can't I come?"
"Your second brother plotted to kill important ministers of the court, if I don't have the face to see anyone."
As soon as the words fell, everyone seemed to remember this incident and quietly stayed away from Qi Xiaoyu.
The sisters who were still talking and laughing around Fang Cai suddenly looked at her with strange eyes, where could Qi Xiaoyu hold back the anger in her heart, and immediately became angry at Jiang Yuhuan, "You! Jiang Yuhuan, what are you proud of! β
Jiang Yuhuan's face turned cold, his eyes looked at Qi Xiaoyu with heavy eyes, and he said coldly: "Presumptuous!" Who gave you the guts to call the princess of the county by her name! If you don't know etiquette, that's what Uncle Zhongyi taught you? β
Qi Xiaoyu opened her mouth to refute, but she didn't know how to say it.
According to the rules, her approach was indeed inappropriate, but she was unwilling to be pressed by Jiang Yuhuan. The position of the princess of the county should have been hers!
She stiffened her neck and didn't say anything for a long time.
Jiang Qiaoer's lips opened slightly, and her eyes moved back and forth on the two, as if she was frightened.
She cautiously approached Jiang Yuhuan, "Big sister, don't be angry, Sister Xiaoyu didn't mean to." β
"Qiao'er." Jiang Yuhuan took a long breath, patted Jiang Qiao'er's shoulder, and said earnestly, "You are too naΓ―ve." Politeness is engraved in the bones, and it has nothing to do with whether it is intentional or not. β
While comforting Jiang Qiao'er, she did not forget to sarcastically mock Qi Xiaoyu.
Jiang Qiao'er pouted, pulling Jiang Yuhuan's sleeve and dangling it, "Big sister, if you don't let Sister Xiaoyu apologize, forget it, she will definitely change it in the future." If you say that, everyone will not like Sister Xiaoyu. β
Before Jiang Yuhuan could speak, Qi Xiaoyu was already jumping to her feet with anger, she pointed at Jiang Yuhuan and said viciously: "Jiang Yuhuan, you are so vicious!" β
She doesn't understand etiquette, once such words get out, who else will come to Zhongyibo's Mansion to ask for marriage in the future.
Since that incident, she begged her mother to take her to see the concubine, but she was refused.
The concubine is unwilling to help her anymore, even if she is no longer willing to accept the reality, she has to start looking at other men.
She was sixteen and couldn't wait any longer.
When Jiang Yuhuan was still a concubine, she was lawless and dared to beat her, and now she has become the princess of the county, and she wants to slander her and ruin her marriage, which is simply a bully!
Jiang Yuhuan ignored her anger and touched Jiang Qiao'er's face with a smile, "Qiao'er is too kind. β
Obviously, her tone was very gentle, but Jiang Qiao'er felt a coldness.
She blinked her watery eyes and continued to intercede for Qi Xiaoyu, "Big sister, Sister Xiaoyu is my friend, you can let her go this time." β
Jiang Yuhuan's face was innocent, "But...... I didn't say I was going to punish her, did I? β
Jiang Qiao'er's expression froze, and a smile bloomed again in the blink of an eye, "I knew that the big sister was the best!" β
Jiang Yuhuan smiled noncommittally, and turned his head to stare at Ning Zhi meaningfully.
Ning Zhi was furious by her.
Her eldest brother was destroyed in Jiang Yuhuan's hands, and he found her stubble again, Jiang Yuhuan wouldn't retaliate against her like he did to Qi Xiaoyu, right?
But she didn't take the initiative to provoke Jiang Yuhuan today, and Jiang Yuhuan couldn't attack her for no reason.
Thinking of this, she straightened her waist and met Jiang Yuhuan's gaze.
saw Jiang Yuhuan smile contemptuously, declined the invitation with Jiang Qiao'er and turned to leave.
Ning Zhi was confused by her actions, and she didn't give up thinking until Jiang Qiao'er told her.
Entering the palace with a task today, Jiang Yuhuan was destined to have no way to chat with the nobles.
What's more, Jiang Qiaoer's good little sisters still have enmity with her.
If it weren't for Jiang Qiaoer's ability to help her facilitate one of them, she wouldn't have bothered to play a sisterhood with Jiang Qiaoer.
Jiang Qiao'er is cute, but her heart is black.
Qi Xiaoyu's brain didn't realize that she didn't understand what it meant to be polite, and she was angry because she was suppressed by her as the princess of the county.
Jiang Qiao'er deliberately said it and woke up Qi Xiaoyu, which seemed to be persuading, but in fact deepened the contradiction between them.
Jiang Yu was happy to see it.
If she wants to take Qi Xiaoyu to watch a good show, she must first provoke Qi Xiaoyu and let Qi Xiaoyu pay attention to her actions at all times.
Now that it's done, it's time to move on to the next step.
