Chapter 176: Business Trip
didn't stay in the Second Princess's Mansion for too long, Xu Qi'an had to patrol the streets in the afternoon, so he said goodbye and left.
Framed reluctantly, with a raised brow: "Xu Ningyan, I can tell my father that you will enter the palace and become a guard in the palace." ”
What is the future of being a guard? Do you really want me to be a cow and a horse... Xu Qi'an said helplessly: "Your Highness, I still have some ambitions. ”
Obviously, making cows and horses for the princess is not as promising as serving Wei Yuan. Emperor Yuanjing loves mounting, in addition to her being noisy and coquettish, the other is that she is innocent and cute, and has no scheming.
Princess Huaiqing is like this, if she wants to support her henchmen to take the position, she has to find an opportunity, such as the Sangbo case. The same goes for the other princes.
framed and begged Emperor Yuan Jing to exempt him from the death penalty to no avail, and Xu Qi'an saw through Emperor Yuan Jing.
"Second princess, why are you bothering, the humble position is just a small beater. Xu Qi'an said, we are not suitable.
"The others are not as interesting as you, and they are trembling when they talk to me. Lin'an pouted and shook his feet:
"I don't like to read, I can't do anything like piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and I'm suffocated in the palace. When I was a child, the prince's brother would play with me, but now when I go to him, he frowns, and always says that there is something serious and something serious. ”
What a pathetic company, kept in a canary... But isn't Princess Huaiqing free to come and go.... Xu Qi'an thought about it and figured it out.
Huaiqing is the kind of strong woman who gives her 3,000 soldiers and horses, and she can fight the world by herself. Among Emperor Yuan Jing's children, there are almost no talents and skills that can be compared with Huaiqing.
Lin'an is different, she is a rude and willful little princess, without scheming, and is easier to deceive than a wolf ambitious.
Xu Qi'an automatically pulled himself out of the single name of "wolf ambition".
"This is actually very simple, the princess will move back to her mansion to live. The Imperial City is always more interesting than the Miyagi. Xu Qi'an said.
Lin'an is a titled princess and has her own mansion in the imperial city.
"Then you will come to Anfu to see me tomorrow. Framed said.
Princess Lin'an arrived at Jingxiu Palace in a sedan chair before lunch, and Chen Guifei sent someone to notify a pair of children today and invited them to Jingxiu Palace for dinner.
During the meal, the prince ate the delicacies carefully prepared by Concubine Chen, and suddenly said: "Listening to the errand workers in the palace, Wei Yuan sent a secret recipe to the queen and cured her of anorexia." ”
Chen Guifei smiled: "There is such a thing, it seems to be called... I heard that adding a little when cooking vegetables will make the taste unforgettable. ”
The prince saw Chen Guifei's desire, "If the mother concubine tastes it, the child will ask the queen for some." ”
Chen Guifei said with a smile: "I heard that Princess Huaiqing went to ask for it, but the queen didn't give it." ”
The mother and son were suddenly helpless.
Princess Lin'an looked at her mother and brother and asked, "Is it called chicken essence?" ”
The prince looked at her, "You've heard about it too?"
The heartless Lin Anke didn't have time to pay attention to the news of the harem, shook his head and said, "Xu Ningyan sent me something today, it's called chicken essence." ”
She called the maid and said, "Go back to the palace and get it for me." ”
A quarter of an hour later, the maid returned breathlessly and brought back the porcelain vase that had been left in the house.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince took the porcelain vase first, uncorked it, smelled it, and smelled a slightly pungent umami smell.
"Let the stove heat these dishes again, add this... Essence of chicken, shall we taste it?"
The prince's proposal was approved by his mother and sister.
Not long after, the palace maid came back with a hot dish, and the mother and son did not move the chopsticks, but looked at the palace maid.
The palace maid first tested the poison with a silver needle, then took the dishes and chopsticks, tried them one by one, and after eating all the dishes, the prince saw that her eyes were obviously a little unfinished, but she didn't dare to eat more, and stared at the food reluctantly.
After waiting for a while, seeing that the palace maid was fine, the prince urged: "Give the palace a bowl of soft-shelled turtle soup." ”
While serving the soup, the palace maid said with a smile: "Your Highness has a good eye, the umami taste of this soup is unforgettable." ”
The prince couldn't wait to take it, tasted it, and praised it: "It's a good taste... Mother, Lin'an, you taste, taste it. ”
Chen Guifei hadn't seen the prince so happy for a long time, and she was happy.
Lin'an had already done it herself, she didn't eat soft-shelled turtle soup, but took a bite of vegetarian vegetables, chewed and chewed, and unconsciously took the second and third bites....
After lunch, Chen Guifei, who had not seen her children eating so happily for a long time, was very happy.
"Good thing, just this little bottle.... How much effort does it take for the cook in the imperial dining room to get there? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sighed with emotion, and quietly tucked the bottle into his cuff.
Framed's eyes widened, he pounced, grabbed the prince's sleeve, and raised his willow eyebrows: "Mine!"
"Isn't Xu Qi'an your person, you can find him again. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said righteously: "Let go." ”
"I don't loosen, it's my thing. ”
The brother and sister couldn't argue, and asked Chen Guifei to comment, Chen Guifei was angry and funny: "How old is a person, and he is still like a child." If the mother concubine says, it is only fair to stay with the mother concubine. ”
"....." The prince and Lin'an turned their heads and continued to argue.
.....
"It turns out that what Xu Ningyan gave me is so valuable. Framed and sat in a sedan chair, playing with the porcelain vase with only a third of the chicken essence left.
Her little dissatisfaction with Xu Qi'an gradually disappeared, she was not really stupid, Xu Qi'an took advantage of her, she just turned a blind eye.
Because if you don't win him over, this gong will turn his head and throw himself into Huaiqing's arms, and he speaks well and can play, Lin'an is quite reluctant. Some useless calligraphy and paintings and silver were given.
This little gong is very slippery on both sides, I have to confirm it.... Lin'an immediately said: "Go to Huaiqing." ”
When he came to Princess Huaiqing's palace, ignoring the guards, Lin'an held his snow-white chin high and saw the annoying Huaiqing in the front hall.
The two princesses with outstanding looks complemented each other, and on Huaiqing's plain white face, her delicate eyebrows frowned: "What are you doing?" ”
"I heard that Wei Yuan sent the queen mother's secret recipe to relieve the mother's anorexia, and it came from the palace. Lin'an walked to the side of the Bogu shelf, dragged his red skirt, and said casually while playing with the blue and white vase:
"Sister Huaiqing, do you have it here?"
"Nope. Huaiqing said lightly.
"Really not?" Lin An turned his head suddenly, his eyes were shining, and the words "ready to move" were written on his charming goose egg face.
Princess Huaiqing stared at her and said lightly: "What are you lying about." ”
"I'm relieved if you don't have me," Lin'an, no, framed and took out the porcelain bottle, shook it happily, and laughed: "I have it!"
“....”
She saw that Huaiqing's face was wrong, and she was even happier, but in order to avoid being beaten, she accepted it when she saw it, twisted her small waist, and left after pretending to be forced:
"The main palace is gone, and I don't send it. Oh, by the way, this is Xu Ning's banquet to the palace. ”
Xu Ningyan.... Princess Huaiqing's smooth forehead, the green tendons bulged.
....
The next day, after having lunch in Goolan, the Goolan trio picked their teeth and returned to the yamen with the steps of not recognizing their six relatives.
There was a half-hour break at noon, and the three of them planned to go back to the Yamen Tuna, and today Xu Qi'an was still a treat, but this time it was purely to listen to music and eat, and did nothing else. The warrior's family didn't have so much food to spare.
After prostituting Xu Ning for a few days, Song Tingfeng was a little embarrassed, and when he saw that there were roadside stalls to buy oranges, he said:
"You two are waiting here, I'll go buy some oranges. ”
"Get out, Lao Tzu go buy it, you wait here. Xu Qi'an grabbed him.
"Ning Yan, it's too polite, it's too polite. Song Tingfeng insisted on buying it.
"Everything else is fine, I must buy oranges, if you have to buy them, you will be invited next time." Xu Qi'an said angrily.
Song Tingfeng really gave up.
Back at Yamen, Xu Qi'an received another summons from Wei Yuan.
Daddy Wei loves me more and more.... He happily ran to Haoqi Building, and after being told by the guards, he saw Wei Yuan in a green robe in the tea room.
This handsome and elegant eunuch with slightly frosty sideburns was holding a teacup and drinking, and pointed to the seat opposite: "Pour your own tea." ”
Xu Qi'an, who had poured a stomach full of wine, didn't want to drink tea, but still poured a cup and had the right to accompany Wei Yuan.
"You can't drink alcohol when you're on duty," Wei Yuan admonished, "You person, except for some righteousness, the rest are all stinky problems." Oily and smooth, undisciplined, frequent in and out of the Workshop Division, if I were your political enemy, you would have been reincarnated. ”
“... Humble duty knows mistakes. "Xu Qi'an thinks of himself as a younger brother, no, son, so his mentality is much better.
"That's it, the country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change. If one person were so easy to change, there wouldn't be thousands of people in the world. "Wei Yuan has always been a leader with a high tolerance rate for his subordinates, and he didn't really want to pursue him.
He poured a sip of tea and pushed a dossier over: "You have to go to Yunzhou." ”
Xu Qi'an straightened his expression and opened the file to browse.
"A few days ago, a secret letter came back from the secret son of the watchman, which said that the commander of Yunzhou had made Yang Chuannan secretly collude with mountain bandits and transport military supplies in order to seek benefits and support himself. Wei Yuan took another sip of tea and said:
The day after receiving the secret letter, the Qi Party made a quick move and created a "corruption case", using a number of golden and silver gongs as bargaining chips to force me to compromise. ”
Is it no wonder that the well-behaved Qi Party is determined to fight against the people, and it turns out that there is such an inside story hidden behind it.
If it weren't for my shit luck, would Wei Yuan be ready to replace the commander of Yunzhou with a golden and silver gong? By the way, No. 2 said that the reason why the bandits in Yunzhou are difficult to get rid of is that the mountain bandits occupy the terrain, and then they all have armaments and materials, not idle mountain bandits, so there are people behind them.
Qi Dang will definitely not be able to operate remotely in the capital, and there must be a local high-ranking official to cooperate.... Xu Qi'an suddenly realized.
Wei Yuan continued: "After the secret letter was transmitted back to the capital, that secret son died for no reason, and he died silently. His real identity is that he is the commander of the embassy department, and he is an experience of the department.
"People are dead, but the evidence is missing. I have reported this matter to Your Majesty, and Your Majesty will send the governor of the Imperial Court to Yunzhou to investigate the matter.
"What you have to do is protect the governor and find evidence. ”
Xu Qi'an was puzzled: "Why do you want me to go to Yunzhou?"
Still reluctant... Wei Yuan said: "Jiang Luzhong is responsible for this matter, and you go with you to practice." ”
Xu Qi'an was immediately relieved and said, "There is one more thing.... Wei Gong, don't eat too much chicken essence, it's easy to get thirsty, so let the cook put less when cooking. ”
Wei Yuan reprimanded himself just now, but instead of holding grudges, he kindly reminded Xu Qi'an that he felt that he was really kind.
Wei Yuan didn't speak, pointing to the door.
"Retire from your post. Xu Qi'an slipped away immediately.
