I really don't want to take shortcuts anymore

Chapter 314: Check for the young master’s mistakes and fill them up

A mutton-fat jade bracelet of this quality was not available to Mrs. Tao San's sister-in-law who came from a famous family in Xijing, nor to the wife of the head of the Tao family.

So the rumors are all true. Lady Luo was born well and had a good life. She also cured an unknown nobleman and received a lot of favors from him.

What is exposed in the open is only a part of the reward. It seems that there is also a lot of gold, silver and silk hidden in the secret. If you can marry someone back home, those things will have to go with the dowry, and the expenses for the third house will be covered in the future.

Thinking of this, the anger in Mrs. Tao San's heart had long since flown to the sky. Looking at the gold and ruby ​​peach and bat hairpin on Luo Qianhuai's head, her face became even more joyful as she was determined to win.

"Listen to Mrs. Luo. Just give me your convenience!"

Mrs. Tao San did not go home directly, but transferred to Wenzhai.

"Although people are not allowed to marry for a year, we can't help but look at each other. Our two families have settled the matter first, and it won't be too late to hold a happy event until next spring."

Mother Wen and Mrs. Lin looked at each other, but they were not as ecstatic as Mrs. Tao San thought.

Mrs. Lin hesitated and spoke: "Madam, you should also know that the Wen family is just a maternal family. Strictly speaking, we cannot be the master of Yin Yin."

"This child is a filial and polite person. The last time we arranged to see each other without informing her in advance, it already made her feel uneasy. She also talked to us later, so she still has to wait for Aweng to come back before making any plans."

"Isn't Mrs. Luo's husband missing long ago?" Mrs. Tao San only regarded them as an excuse, and then she said dissatisfiedly: "Is it possible that he will never show up in his life, and Mrs. Luo will never marry? Can you guys get it? Think about it clearly, your little lady is out in public like this, and she is doing a lowly medical job. Apart from us, which official family is willing to marry her as a real wife?"

The more she talked, the more it made sense, and she didn't notice the increasingly ugly expressions on Mrs. Wen's and Mrs. Lin's faces.

"My Yinyin has no intention of trying to impress your son. Madam Tao San, please come back." Wenzhou strode in and said stiffly.

Mrs. Tao San always had an indescribable sense of superiority when facing the Wen family. She never expected to be treated like this. He was just a lowly doctor, how could he dare to refuse the olive branch extended by the Tao family?

"Don't regret it!" She said angrily, and took the carriage back to Tao Mansion. The more she thought about it, the more upset she became.

In Weiyang Palace, there are also people who are restless at this moment.

The vast world has a new master. Even if this master is only ten years old, he is still an unattainable saint, and his words are already golden.

"Your Majesty." Mr. Zheng bowed and stood beside him: "But these snacks are not to your taste?"

In front of his old confidants, Yu Jing showed a slightly tired look on his face.

I have been busy from last night to now, summoning all the auxiliary ministers, reading out the edict, and appointing the Shanling responsible for His Majesty's funeral arrangements. The things are so many and complicated that I don't even have time to rest for a moment.

And that ubiquitous feeling of loneliness. My mother is gone, and now my father has also left. From now on, he is the only one left in this world.

Alone, with only the cold and silent throne.

He has never wanted to seek even a little bit of comfort like he did at this moment. Even if it is just a bowl of fermented glutinous rice dumplings, as long as you put your heart into it, it will taste sweet to the bottom of your heart. But the snacks presented to him this time seemed to be no different in appearance and taste. They were even more exquisite than the ones he had last time, but they just lacked the faint warmth.

"Jin'er made these too?" His voice was so thin that there was no flavor at all.

It was rare for him to remember the name of a little palace maid. For her, this was a supreme grace. But because of this, after living up to his expectations, there is no need to live - this is what his father taught him, and he has always regarded him as Guigao.

Zheng En knew this master very well. If he showed such an attitude and tone, he must have murderous intentions.

It was like a basin of cold water poured on his face, instantly melting his expectations of promotion and salary increase.

He shook his legs and knelt down: "Your Majesty, Jin'er kept the meal recipe, and she still insisted on going back to Jiaofang Hall to be on duty. The servant thought that Your Majesty didn't directly ask her to stay, so she allowed her to stay. .”

"When this time is over, you go and get the ten sticks." Yu Jin still looked indifferent, but Zheng En was overjoyed: "I thank your majesty for your kindness!"

"I'm going to take a nap first." Yu Jin stood up and said, "In half an hour, I'm going to eat the fermented rice dumplings she made."

It’s completely self-evident who this “she” is. Zheng En took the order, called two eunuchs, and rushed to the Jiaofang Palace, only to find that the maid who opened the door had been replaced.

"Where is the little palace maid Jin'er from before?" Zheng En was furious.

The little palace maid was a little confused: "Jin'er tried to escape yesterday and was taken to Yeting after being discovered - so Gong Zhengsi sent a new maid here - if the young prisoner wants to find her, he will have to go to Yeting quickly."

It is not a trivial matter for a palace maid to escape. If she is discovered, it will be a capital crime. However, His Majesty is in a hurry to get someone. All Zheng En can do is to bring the person before His Majesty to wait for the Holy Judgment.

For him, a popular figure in front of the new emperor and a candidate who is very likely to be promoted to the eunuch order, Ye Ting attaches great importance to him. Even Zhang Shiyuan, the lieutenant of Ye Ting who was not showing his face, personally came out to welcome him in with a smile on his face.

Just mentioning Qiao Jin'er, Zhang Shiyuan frowned: "Young Master Zheng came a step too late. Qiao Jin'er boldly escaped. He was killed according to palace regulations last night, and his body was sent to a mass grave."

As he spoke, he sighed repeatedly: "I'm sorry that I can't do anything about this matter. If the young prisoner has any other needs, I will do my best."

Zheng En had no choice but to go back and recover. When Yu Jin heard the news, he just stood stunned for a while and did not use the topic to express himself. It made him feel lucky in his heart.

But they didn't know that at this moment, in the public room of Ye Tingling Zhang Shiyuan, the three people were closing the door tightly and continuing to eat and drink, talking happily.

"So you understand why I insisted yesterday that Qiao Jin'er's life could not be spared." Zhang Shiyuan said, holding his long beard.

Huang Naiguan nodded first, but then became a little worried: "It's just that the young master's order at that time was to spare her life."

"Young master is not a person who cares about beauty and beauty." Zhang Shiyuan's eyebrows relaxed, and he was obviously in a good mood: "Besides, it is my job to check for leaks and fill up the vacancies for the master."

"That's right." The third person in the room, Ye Tingcheng Jingyuan, said: "Although the result is not satisfactory, it is still gratifying that the young master can be granted the title of marquis. Come and drink this cup. , congratulations to the young master!"

The three of them laughed and drank several drinks. Zhang Shiyuan was a little drunk and brought up something that had been lingering in his mind in recent days: "Speaking of which, the young master has passed the age of weak crown. He has been awarded a jade certificate and a title. It is time to think about starting a family!"
