If you want to say who this woman is, you have to talk about the origin of the Great Song Dynasty first. It is said that after the collapse of the Tang Dynasty, the world ushered in an era of war and chaos. This era is the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and among these five dynasties, the last dynasty is the Later Zhou, the Chai royal family. At that time, Song Zu was a general under Emperor Nachai, and later he saw that Emperor Chai was ignorant and young, so he launched a mutiny, and the yellow robe was added, and he became the founding emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.

Since the Song ancestor took power, the world has restored peace. I don't know if it's really kind-hearted, or if I still have to do enough drama. This Song ancestor did not exterminate the royal family of the Chai Chamber, but sealed the Chaimur Clan as the king of Zhou, which has been hereditary to this day.

And this woman's father is Jiang Qinzhou, who is now in power. It is said that more than 20 years ago, this Jiang Qinzhou was still a petty official of the first six grades. The reason why he has been able to become a great minister in the past 20 years or so is because of the help of a nobleman, and that nobleman is the king of Zhou of the previous generation. Although the previous generation of Zhou kings did not have any real power in their hands, they had a wide range of connections. In order to rely on the big tree of King Zhou, Jiang Qinzhou didn't know how much effort he wasted. Once, the two drank at a wine table, and the prince had just had a son that week, and he was in a very happy mood. So at the wine table, he drank a few more glasses, and when he saw that Zhou Wangye was drunk, Jiang Qinzhou said that his family had been pregnant for eight months, and he didn't know if it was a son or a daughter, if it was a daughter, then he would be married to the eldest son who had just been born in Zhou Wangfu.

When Zhou Wang Ye heard this, he casually agreed. But he didn't know that he had fallen into Jiang Qinzhou's trap. Jiang Qinzhou's inner friend was pregnant, but the child was born a month ago. He drank with Zhou Wangye, just to settle down on this family.

Later, when Jiang Qinzhou went to the Zhou Wangfu with his daughter, the Zhou prince was shocked when he saw this, and later when he heard Jiang Qinzhou talk about marrying a family, Zhou Wangye was not easy to refuse. He agreed vaguely at that time, and he thought that he would regret it after a while.

But he didn't expect that this Jiang Qinzhou was an unrelenting lord, he not only walked outside, he had already married a family with the Zhou Palace, but also brought his daughter to the Zhou Palace. And that week, the prince saw that Jiang Qinzhou's daughter was becoming more and more upright day by day, and she was also knowledgeable, clever and sensible, but he also acquiesced to this family affair.

The woman was just four years old at the time, but she didn't have a name yet.

Later, when he inquired about the girl's birthday, Jiang Qinzhou naturally didn't dare to tell the truth, and he pushed it back for two months. That week, the prince's name was simple and arbitrary, and his son was destined to commit a crime, so he named it Chai Guan Mountain. And this woman's fate seemed to be a crime, so he named her Jiang Cishu.

Jiang Cishu is now the princess of Chai Wangfu, and this Chai Yanqing is the second son of the previous King of Zhou, and Lin'an people are called Chai Erye.

Jiang Ciyu took the handkerchief handed by the maid on the side, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said lightly: "I told you a long time ago that you are not allowed to mess around with Zhang Wan, why don't you listen?"

"Sister-in-law, what you said is unfair. I don't have anything to do with the two of them, it's because they always come to Zhao for my trouble. Chai Yanqing straightened his waist and said quite stiffly.

Jiang Ciyu frowned lightly and said, "It's okay, do you know what the outside world says about the three of you?"

Chai Yanqing smiled and said, "How can they be compared to me?"

"Your virtue is not much better!" Jiang Ci suddenly snorted: "People outside say that the three of you can still be regarded as human beings if you take it out alone." But if the three of you get together, it's a one-legged toad with big and small eyes, and it's disgusting. ”

Chai Yanqing sneered and said to himself: "How did my reputation stink to this point. ”

Jiang Ciyu said lightly: "I know the ins and outs of today's matter, I fought with a singer in the Qinglou for a singer, and I was stripped of my clothes and thrown outside Yanlin City, do you want to keep your face tight, but my Zhou Wangfu still cares about this face." From this day on, you will not be allowed to step out of the palace for three months. ”

"Eh, sister-in-law......"

"What, don't you think it's right?"

Chai Yanqing waved his hand when he heard this, and then smiled bitterly: "Yes, I admit it." ”

Chai Yanqing returned to his room, and after half an hour, his hands and feet completely softened. But this time it was comfortable, and he tossed again.

"Wan Cripple actually put me along, today, I have to burn his house down!" Chai Yanqing muttered viciously, and then rummaged through the cabinet to find a one-foot-long black iron pipe. This black iron pipe was supplied by the Bai family, who are good at making firearms on the rivers and lakes, a few years ago, Chai Yanqing played for a few days and thought it was quite interesting, but as a common thing in the world, he was tired of playing, so he pressed it at the bottom of the cabinet.

"Today, the artifact is out of the sheath, and I will kill him cleanly!" Chai Yanqing triumphantly grabbed a big piece and wrapped it around his body, then pushed the door and walked out. But as soon as he stood in the hallway and looked left and right, he hurried back into the room.

"Second master, you haven't slept at night, where are you going to toss? Could it be that you take my words as a deaf ear?"

Chai Yanqing poked out his head when he heard this, and he sneered: "Look at what my sister-in-law said, how dare I do this?"

Jiang Cijun had already blocked the door with two maids at this time, Jiang Cijun looked up and down at Chai Yiqing, and suddenly laughed: "I said what the second master is going to do, and the feeling is to take a burning stick to cook." But this rough work, don't dare to ask the second master to do it. As he spoke, Jiang Cijun lightly snatched the firearm from Chai Yanqing's hand. Then, she continued: "Feng'er, bring the chicken soup to the second master and bring it to the house." ”

"Eh, chicken soup, I haven't seen meat in a few days!" Chai Yanqing's eyes lit up, and before the maid could make a move, he snatched the soup cup in his hand, turned around and entered the house, and gobbled it up.

After eating for a while, Chai Yanqing looked up at Jiang Ciyu, who was sitting opposite him, and said, "Sister-in-law, why are you willing to kill a chicken for me to eat?"

Jiang Ciyu smiled and said, "The second master said that he was born, when did I shorten your eating and drinking?"

Chai Yanqing shook his head and said: "I really can't figure it out, what does the emptiness of the treasury have to do with our Zhou Palace? But only you, sister-in-law, donated all the money in the palace to the palace, as well as your jewelry and those expensive clothes, and look at the tattered clothes you are wearing now, what is the difference between them and the peasant woman. Even if you do this, will anyone read you?"

Jiang Cijun said lightly: "It is precisely because others don't do it that our palace has to do it." Do you know how many pairs of eyes are staring at our palace now? If we are not careful, we will be doomed. ”

"This is not Chai Guanshan's doing, if it weren't for him, our palace would have been able to fall to this point......" Chai Yanqing said this, suddenly silent, he looked up at Jiang Cishu's face, and then changed his words and said: "I said sister-in-law, let's pick the blue lantern at the door, and come back at night to look weird." ”

Jiang Ciyu smiled and said: "You can't go out in the past few months, and the lantern can't hinder your second master's eyes." Moreover, as long as you light that lantern, your brother will surely return, as he commanded before he set out on the expedition. You also know that his favorite thing in his life is blue. ”

"Hey, I'm afraid only sister-in-law you think he's alive. Chai Yanqing spit out a chicken bone, and his tone was full of disdain.

When Jiang Cishu heard this, he couldn't help but say something, but in the end he endured it.

Chai Yanqing said lightly: "If he is still alive, why don't you go back to the palace?"

Jiang Ciyu frowned and said, "Your brother Wang, he must have difficulties." ”

Chai Yanqing said with a smile: "If he really has difficulties, I'm afraid his difficulties are also that there are women outside, maybe there are children, and he has no shame to come to see you, sister-in-law." ”

Jiang Cijun was not annoyed when she heard this, she smiled and said: "As long as he lives, everything will be fine." ”

Chai Yanqing spread his hands and said indifferently: "Then he will continue to live happily outside, I don't want him to come back." Last time he blinded me in one eye, if he comes back and hears that I was being stripped naked and thrown outside Lin'an City, won't he blind my other eye?"

"Last time, it wasn't that you made a caracal friend, you didn't listen to his advice, he just missed and hit you for a while, and he still hurts you in his heart......"

Before Jiang Ciyu finished speaking, he heard Chai Yanqing slap the table and scold: "Bullshit! If you want to make friends, it's not ...... him."

"Smack!"

Jiang Cishu's slap was about to hit Chai Yanqing's face, but she was stunned, but she slapped it her face.

"His fault, I, who is a wife, will suffer for him, but you, who are brothers, must never insult your eldest brother!"

Seeing Jiang Ci's resolute expression, Chai was tired of Qingdeng's wilting. After he drank a few sips of soup silently, he suddenly laughed and said, "Sister-in-law, do you know why I want to go out?"

Jiang Cishu said lightly: "Your reasons have always been varied, I know where to go." ”

Chai Yanqing said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you don't know, now there are a lot of rumors and rumors about our Zhou Wang Ye outside Lin'an City." ”

"When is it less?"

"But this time it's about my sister-in-law and me, whether my eldest brother is dead or not, others don't care, but now in the eyes of others, sister-in-law, you are a widow. And I, a well-known prodigal in Lin'an City. No, someone arranged that the sister-in-law had an adulterous affair with my little brother-in-law. I left the palace to avoid suspicion. ”

Jiang Ciyu listened to it and laughed heartily: "The second master is really rare to think about others, I thank you for your kindness in advance, but I don't need the second master to leave his body behind and go outside the palace to avoid this suspicion." ”

Chai Yanqing said with a smile: "It's just that those people outside are shameless, sister-in-law, you have watched me grow up since childhood, I respect you like a sister and mother, and I should care about your innocent reputation sister-in-law." ”

Jiang Ciyu smiled and said, "Second Master, why is your mouth so sweet today? Could it be that a weasel is giving a New Year's greeting to a chicken?"

Chai Yanqing chuckled, he lowered his head and said softly: "Sister-in-law, can you tell my father-in-law and let him arrange an errand for me." ”

Jiang Ciyu showed surprise on her face when she heard this, and she said: "In the past, I was in a hurry to ask you to go to the imperial court on an errand, but you were a hundred unwilling, why did you change your mind today?"

Chai Yanqing raised his head and smiled: "Because I understand first, if you don't have real power in your hands, then no matter what you do, it will be a laughing stock in the eyes of others." ”

Jiang Ciyu nodded and said, "Although you haven't understood any big truth, but you have this heart, it is worthy of praise." Otherwise, my brother is in Dali Temple, don't you usually like to listen to those books that fight and kill, Dali Temple can be what you want. And you and Chu Zhe together, you can also take care of each other. ”

"Dali Temple?" Chai Yanqing shook his head and sneered: "It's boring."

Jiang Cishu thought for a moment when he heard the words and said, "Otherwise, I'll talk to my uncle, and let you follow him to temper in the ministry." The right to manage the transfer of officials is not small. ”

Chai Yanqing then shook his head and said: "The Ministry of Officials is not only the head of the horse under the Zhongshu Gate, it is just an empty shell, what does it mean." ”

Jiang Cishu frowned in the end, and she said lightly: "Then where do you want to go?"

Chai Yiqing suddenly put on an unfathomable look and said: "Sister-in-law, do you know that a few days ago, the two governments discussed and said that in order to fill the deficit in the treasury, they would prepare to trade with the sixteen countries of the Southern Barbarians?"

Jiang Cijun nodded and said: "I've heard of this, but I heard from my uncle-in-law that this is just the two mansions have been decided, and the emperor hasn't made a decision yet." But in my opinion, this matter is a bit fantastical, and nine times out of ten, it will not be possible. ”

Chai Yanqing said with a smile: "This is Qin Zhonghui's idea, can the emperor listen to it? I also heard that the north room of the Privy Council has begun to build the embassy in the south." Sister-in-law, look, can you arrange for me to enter the embassy in the south and let me be an ambassador to the south. ”

Jiang Ciyu saw through Chai Yanqing's abacus, and she smiled: "The second master said that he didn't have it for a long time, but he was waiting for me here." Since you asked, then I will tell you clearly. Regardless of whether the trade with the foreign country in the south is successful or not, I don't think you are allowed to leave Lin'an. ”

Chai Yanqing said anxiously when he heard this: "Sister-in-law, think about it, this matter kills two birds with one stone. As soon as I go out, there will be no one to chew the root of your tongue behind my back. Second, I can go out and see the world......"

Before Chai Yanqing finished speaking, Jiang Ciyu beckoned the maid to clean up the dishes and spoons. She got up and walked to the door as she stopped, and she suddenly turned back. Chai Yanqing only looked at her eyes wide open, her eyebrows upside down, and she was frighteningly tight. Suddenly, Jiang Cishu shouted: "Second master, I call you Second Master because you will one day take charge of the Zhou Palace, and become the real Zhou Wangye." You are not sensible now, go outside to mess around, I tolerate it, I will help you carry this family now. But how long do you want me to let a weak woman fight for you! If your brother Wang really doesn't come back, you have to resist this family business, there are many dangers in the southern regions, and there is a chance that there will be no return, and I don't think you will be sent to death. I don't care about fame. I just beg the second master to you, don't insult the Chai family!"

With that, Jiang Cishu left and never looked back.

Chai Yanqing muttered in a low voice: "Even the country has let go of others, and there is a fart who is not humiliated." Chai Jiang, don't think I'm afraid of you, I have to go to this Southern Regions!"

I don't know when the cold wind blew outside, but inside a big house, it was as warm as spring. I just saw Jiang Ciyu talking to a middle-aged man with a thin face and long hair. This middle-aged man's surname is Duan, his name is Qingliu, a few days ago he was still Dali Siqing, but now he is a secretary of the ministry. He and Jiang Qinzhou are brothers-in-law.

At this time, Duan Qingliu smiled bitterly: "Qin Xiang's hand rises and descends secretly, but it is really funny. I instinctively entered the Zhongshu sect this year, but he recommended me to be the secretary of the ministry. I heard that his old man recently intended to arrange Wan Yiqi's son Wan Qiwei to be a waiter in the ministry, so it seems that Wan Qiwei's entry into the middle school is a certainty. Isn't it obvious that you want to set me up?"

Jiang Qinzhou listened to it, and said half-jokingly: "Who let people outside spread that we are Jiang Duandang." In fact, you don't have to care about this transfer, there are also benefits in the Ministry of Officials. Although Wan Qiwei has been sharp in the DPRK over the years, he has no foundation after all, and he can't compare with you. ”

Duan Qingliu nodded and said, "These are just complaints, what matters is that there is trade with the Southern Regions." Qin Xiang put forward such a fantastical idea, in my opinion, he is a drunkard, not in wine, but in the mountains and rivers. ”

"What is a mountain and what is water?"

"In this mountain, water flows around the mountain. I only hope that Prime Minister Qin's move is just to cover the mouths of the government and the opposition, if he really wants to do something, then something big will happen if he can't keep it. Qin Zhou, when you meet the Holy One tomorrow, you can do your best to block this proposal. ”

Jiang Qinzhou waved his hand after hearing this: "I don't think it's necessary, it can't be stopped, if he is blocked from trading with the Southern Regions, he may not come to trade with the Western Regions." What we can do now is to watch and see what Qin Xiang wants to do. ”

Duan Qingliu shook his head when he heard this: "It's okay, it's up to you." The emperor doesn't look at the usual playfulness, but he is very concerned about the affairs of the government and the opposition, but Men'er is clear, this time he should not be based on Qin Xiang's idea. When I mentioned that Wan Qiwei, I remembered a major event that happened in Lin'an today. ”

Jiang Qinzhou smiled and said, "Let's hear it." ”

Duan Qingliu said lightly: "Second Master Chai is also known as Shock, today he smashed Wan Qiwei's head with a wine pot in the Qinglou. And that Wan Qiwei was not to be outdone, he was intoxicated with Chai Yanqing, and stripped Chai Yanqing's clothes and threw them outside Lin'an City. This second master Chai is really a bastard, so he walked back to the palace naked in front of everyone's eyes. ”

Jiang Qinzhou frowned and said, "I don't have a good one to freeze out of Qingqing, right?"

Duan Qingliu smiled and said: "It's not that you don't know the little prince, he was born with no skin and no face, he can't freeze badly, and he can't burn through." Ci Yu may be afraid that you will be angry, so he sent someone to my house to say that the little prince has nothing to do. ”

Jiang Qinzhou shook his head after hearing this: "As the saying goes, the eldest brother is like a father, and the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother." is so cynical now, because the family is not good. By the way, Wan Yiqi knows that his precious son was smashed, so he shouldn't just forget it, right?"
