She remembered what he had said in the Pingjun Palace, and asked, "Are they here to beg you to speak for them?"
” Chu Qi nodded and sighed: "But the emperor's meaning is exactly the opposite," he continued with a wry smile: "The emperor also revealed his meaning, and wanted me to help persuade and appease the generals, so that they should not sign the book of ten thousand words, and it is best to ask for their own resignation."
The treasury is empty, and he can't take out the money to raise soldiers, and the emperor can't do it. ” Jinghe didn't know what to do, she really didn't understand the things in the court, but she couldn't bear to see him continue to be sad and sad, so she gently persuaded: "Why don't you find someone who knows how to discuss?"
” Chu Qi said slowly: "Song Ge is an understanding person, and he has a clear view of the court situation, but he has already made it clear that he is against the implementation of the government and military system, I will go now, so that the brothers in the army know, wouldn't it be chilling." ” "Then don't worry too much," Jinghe said, "Things will be completed when things are slow, and wait and see for two more days." ” Chu Qi nodded, and there was only this method that was not a way at the moment.
The next day, Jinghe got up early and watched Zi Ying arrange breakfast, Chu Qi lazily walked over and sat down, muttering with some dissatisfaction: "Is it because the husband has become weaker, or is the lady getting more and more powerful?"
” What he means is that Jinghe got up early, and he can't get up without the sun shining on his butt like before?!
Jinghe was obviously distressed about his hard work, and she didn't get up until she did a long day of psychological construction, so she pinched his waist in annoyance.
Chu Qi joked with her, swept away yesterday's irritability, and happily went out to the court.
After Jinghe finished cooking, he saw that there were still some jewelry and materials he bought yesterday, and remembered that he hadn't been back to Anqinghou's Mansion for a long time, so he sent Jinxin back to Xu's house, sent these materials back, and checked whether the martial artist recommended by Chu Qi in the past was qualified, and whether there was someone in the Xu family who wanted to make trouble.
Jin Xin went and waited for Jinghe to have lunch before returning from Xu's house.
Jinghe rinsed her mouth, beckoned her to sit down on the small pestle, and asked in a loud voice: "Father and mother are okay?"
Is Brother Yun obedient?
” "The master and the wife are all right, the fifth master is good, the old lady and the fifth master are full of praise for the master recommended by the grandfather," Jinxin said with a smile: "The master said that a calligraphy and painting dealer came to the master before, saying that he would spend two thousand taels of silver to buy a painting of the master."
Mrs. made a few winter clothes for Mrs. and asked the servants to bring them back, and said that she would go back and ask Mrs. to tell Mrs. the size of Grandpa Guo, or take an old coat, and Mrs. would make a few clothes for Mrs.
Hou as well, and Mrs. said that Madame, you have a lot of things, just leave these things to her," she said, handing over the two burdens in her hand.
Jinghe opened the burden and touched the soft silk, and her heart was full of happiness, in fact, after marrying into the Guogong Mansion, she didn't have much to do every day, the British Mansion had a small population, and there were few maids and sisters-in-law, and the accounts were not so complicated; is just an aunt, or a Xibei goods, there is no wife and concubine competing for favor; There are no in-laws above, and there is no need to settle the province in the morning and dusk, and my life can be said to be quite moisturizing.
"One more thing," said Jinxin again, "the old lady is seriously ill again......"
Jing He raised his eyebrows, his eyes condensed a little, and asked, "What's the matter?"
” "It's not a hindrance to life," Jin Xin hurriedly said: "It is said that the old lady was happy the night before, and she was accompanied by several young masters and girls to eat two more pieces of roast venison, who knew that it would not stop at night, vomiting and diarrhea, yesterday day was not good, and this morning started to burn again, saying that the old lady was afraid that Mrs. was busy, and ordered not to send a message to our house, and the slave also listened to Sister Bi Tao say this." ” Jinghe slowly stroked a silk bracelet on her wrist, since she got married, the power of the second room in the Anqing Hou Mansion has weakened a lot, and it has turned from offensive to defensive, since this word can reach Bi Tao's ears, it must have been instructed by the old lady or the Yang family, that is to say, the old lady intended to let herself know that she was sick, but she didn't mention it, is there anything strange about this?
Is there any calculation on the part of Mrs.
Xu or the Yang family?
Da Zhou is heavy on 'ruling the world with filial piety', and now the British prince is too noble in the court, and the tree is very popular, and Jinghe's attitude towards Mrs.
Xu must be handled even more subtly, so as not to let those imperial historians grab the handle to impeach Chu Qi.
Fortunately, Mrs.
Xu did not officially inform her, so she had the opportunity to prepare, and she could also delay it, thinking of this, Jinghe instructed Jinxin, "You go to Bi Tao's house again, and ask Bi Tao if there is anything going on in the house recently?"
” One day later, Jinxin came back and reported: "Sister Bitao sent someone to talk back, saying that there is nothing big in the house, but the four girls have made a fuss about going back to the house several times, but they have been stopped by the third wife, and the third master is very busy, and he goes out early and returns late every day, and he can't take care of the four girls." ” Jinghe nodded, and asked again: "Has the Jiwang Mansion sent anyone back to the Xu family in the past few days?"
” Jinxin replied: "Madame is really right, Princess Ji went back two days ago, because she happened to meet Sister Bi Tao, and also gave Mrs. a lot of good ginseng, saying that it is the most suitable to replenish the body, so Mrs. asked Bi Tao to send some good Gu embroidery as a return gift."
Madame saw me going, and asked me to bring back one for you, Madame," she said, handing over the box.
Jinghe took the brocade box and opened it to take a look, and saw that the lines on the taproot of this ginseng were fine, dense and deep, the tail was smooth, the fibrous roots were uniformly thick, flexible and not easy to break, so he knew that it was a good old ginseng, so he handed the brocade box back to Bai Mei and instructed, "Put it in the warehouse." ” Now that Jingyi has gone back to visit the sick, it would be bad if Jinghe didn't go back, is it the Hongmen banquet set up by the Yang family behind such confusion?
In any case, this visit was not easy.
When Chu Qi came back in the evening, Jinghe mentioned that Mrs.
Xu was sick, "My grandmother is sick at home, and I think I will have time to go back to my mother's house today and tomorrow." ” "Seriously?"
Chu Qi lowered her head and let her change into comfortable bedclothes for herself, and said, "Wait until I go down to the court with you." ” Jinghe smiled and tied his belt for him, and said, "It's just that I have a bad stomach, it's okay to think about it, you should not go over these days, after all, the third uncle serves in the military department, so as not to say gossip from outsiders," Speaking of this, a thought suddenly flashed in her mind.
When Mrs.
Xu was sick, that is, when the ministers asked the emperor to recruit troops to change the army, the third uncle was the secretary of the military department, and Jingyi's husband Ji Wangye was the most successful among the princes, and they were all related to the army, and Chu Qi, the victorious general, the governor of the left army, was also related to the army, isn't it too much of a coincidence?
"Tuan Tuan," hearing Chu Qi's call, Jinghe came back to her senses, she looked up at Chu Qi, his resolute face flashed with a trace of solemnity, Jinghe knew that Chu Qi also thought of this.
