first princess

90 Chapter 4 Turning the tide ([-])
Mother Du replied: "Yes, Missy ordered Ye Mao to go to Zhenbei Prince's Mansion to see if he can invite a doctor."

Shui Lingyu laughed at herself: "How did I forget that Eldest Sister is the future Crown Princess?"

Mother Du didn't dare to answer her words, because she looked very scary at this moment.

Shui Lingyu took a sign from her waist and handed it to Mama Du: "It's faster to take my carriage."

Miss San's carriage was sent by Governor Jiang himself, and it was faster than the old lady and the master. Madam Du looked at Shui Lingyu's bleak back. Could it be...Miss San is going to invite the doctor herself, right?
Ye Mao took Shui Lingyu's carriage to the Zhenbei Palace. After knocking on the gate of the palace to explain his intention, the guards rushed into Anping's room. After about a quarter of an hour, Anping took the doctor who was prepared for Zhuge Xi in the mansion to go. Went to Shangshufu.

When the doctor entered Shui Lingqing's bedroom, Shui Lingqing had already convulsed.

After taking Shui Lingqing's pulse, the doctor quickly took out the silver needles from the medicine box he carried with him, and used acupuncture for Shui Lingqing to reduce the fever.

Shui Linglong hugged Shui Lingqing in her arms, touched her face and kissed her forehead, for fear that she would follow Aunt Feng as soon as she let go!
After working hard for half an hour, the lord was completely drenched before finally letting Shui Lingqing out of danger.

The doctor prescribed a prescription, and Anping hurriedly went back to Zhenbei Prince's Mansion to get medicine. Zhuge Yu studied medicine, and there were a lot of medicinal materials in the mansion.

It was only at this moment that Shui Linglong truly realized Zhuge Yu's kindness. If he hadn't left Anping to help her, Qing'er might... She didn't dare to think!
The whole room was busy all night, Shui Linglong just hugged Shui Lingqing, Qiaoer and Zhifan kept rubbing Shui Lingqing's feet according to the method taught by the doctor, Ye Mao and Anping set up a stove in the outer courtyard to boil medicine, Mother Zhong was worried that Shui Linglong's body would not be able to bear it, so she sent two suppers on the way, but Shui Linglong didn't eat much, so she gave it all to the servants.

When dawn broke, Shui Lingqing finally did not burn so badly.

All the young ladies in the mansion are getting married soon, so the old lady suppressed the matter, and only said that Aunt Feng died of the epidemic, and no one was allowed to mention it, so as not to cause bad luck.

However, the news of Aunt Feng's death spread throughout the Shangshu Mansion. Unlike other aunts who passed away, she was the woman who gave birth to two daughters for Shui Hangge, and one of them was about to marry as the governor's wife. People in the mansion said that It's a pity, seeing that her daughter is about to turn a pheasant into a phoenix, but she has lost her life to enjoy her daughter's blessing.

After Governor Jiang heard the news, he didn't even change his court clothes, and rushed to the Minister's Mansion without stopping, getting started one step earlier than Shui Hangge.

It's a pity that the old lady moved too fast, Aunt Feng's body had already been buried, and there was no way for Shui Lingyu to send Aunt Feng off for the last time when he came.

Shui Lingyu cried into tears in his arms: "I have nothing left, only you from now on..."

Governor Jiang's eyes dimmed. He has practiced martial arts for many years and his body is much tougher than ordinary people, but he is not a god. He will die in front of Shui Lingyu when he is old. He holds Shui Lingyu's head, his eyes are deep and distant: "It'll be good for you." In my lifetime...

Kashiqing proposed to exchange Bocheng with Huicheng, which is rich and has an iron ore mine, and put Bocheng under Kashiqing's jurisdiction.In the court, Shui Hangge, who was in favor of it, suddenly voted against it, using Fengshui theory as a raft, thinking that abandoning Bo City would damage the country's fortune.

At this time, Guo Yan stepped forward, instead of arguing with reason, Yan Huicheng is rich in mineral resources, vast land and resources, which is of great benefit to Dazhou's economic growth, and the theory of Feng Shui cannot be fully believed!
The two faced red in the courtroom!

Last time it was Yunli and King Zhenbei, this time it was Guo Yan and Shui Hangge again, the emperor was on fire!

Can't you give me some peace?

The emperor kicked the ball to Yunli: "What do you think the prince should do?"

Yun Li held the wat board to bless Fu's body, and said solemnly: "My minister thinks that there is nothing wrong with re-dividing the city. Kashgar is an ethnic autonomous region of Da Zhou, and it belongs to our Da Zhou territory. Why give it up? How can it be abandoned? Will it damage my Great Zhou's luck?"

Shui Hangge gritted his teeth in anger!
The city must be exchanged, and the second plan for the south water to flow to the west quickly passed the review. The dam in the south of the Yangtze River was started in June by Governor Jiang and the experts in the water. After that, the channel was dug across the entire Zhou Dynasty and passed through thirteen cities. , will eventually introduce water into Kashgar, and is expected to be completed within two years.

It is said that on this day, twenty guards died in Pingnan Palace.

Shui Linglong pressed her sore eyes. If Xun Feng couldn't control Kashiqing, he would lose his most powerful arm. No wonder he would run away in anger.

But Xun Feng is not so easy to defeat. He has planned for many years, even if Nanshuixiluo cannot be used by him, he must still have a plan.

What could it be?

Shui Lingqing was in a coma for several days, and only woke up in the afternoon of the fifth day, but she didn't respond much when she woke up, lying on the bed all day long, staring at the ceiling of the curtain with empty eyes. Holding her tightly and crying, without Shui Linglong, she would be like a walking corpse, not even eating.

Here, just after Shui Linglong fed Shui Lingqing half a bowl of porridge, someone from the concierge sent a message that a young man asked to see Shui Linglong.

It's no small matter for a man to ask to see her. If word of her reputation spreads, do you still want it?
Shui Linglong covers Shui Lingqing with a quilt, and asks Qiaoer to take care of her carefully, while she quickly goes to the gate of the Shangshu Mansion, and when she sees someone coming, Shui Linglong immediately turns around and walks back and forth!

A Jue hurriedly rushed forward to block her way: "Miss! I...I just want to know how Miss Fifth's condition is, is she feeling better?"

Shui Linglong glared angrily, and said angrily: "You are very good at inquiring about news, no wonder you haven't obtained any honors in the exams, so you have put your mind on these heretics!"

Ah Jue's face was pale and wrinkled in embarrassment: "I...I...I'm just worried about her, and I can't concentrate on studying. Let me... see her, okay? Really, if she is good , I will definitely study hard and get fame!"

Shui Linglong's voice turned cold: "What? If you meet Qing'er, you will be able to gain fame, but if you don't see him, you will lose your name?"

Ah Jue's face flushed red: "I just want to see her."

Shui Linglong sternly said: "Seeing that the three-year imperial examination is coming soon, you still have the mind to wander around outside! A man like you who is not doing his job properly and only cares about the love of his children is really not worthy of a woman's entrustment for life! Thanks to me thinking of beating you up, you can come to your senses, but I didn’t expect you to be stubborn! I warn you, don’t pester Qing’er anymore! You are a down and out scholar, deserve, no, go!”

After saying that, Shui Linglong turned around angrily and left the spot, leaving Ah Jue alone with his eyes like torches, clenched his fists, and for a long while, facing Shui Linglong's back, he gritted his teeth and sternly yelled, "Miss, don't bully the young and poor!" !"

In a blink of an eye, it was May 23rd. On this day, the Shangshu Mansion was covered with red silk and firecrackers, and they were crackling non-stop early in the morning, making the old lady so noisy that she couldn't even sleep soundly.

Even though Qin Fangyi didn't want to see Shui Lingyu anymore, but this daughter was about to bring family benefits to the Shangshu Mansion, she still sat in the bright hall of Changle Pavilion with dignity, waiting for Shui Lingyu and Governor Jiang to come and bow down to her present.

Shui Linglong and Shui Ling went to Shui Lingyu's room early in the morning.

Shui Lingyu had just finished taking a bath, and Lu'er put on her apron, inner coat, middle coat, and finally the red wedding dress sewn by the No. [-] Embroidery Building.

When Lu'er was holding the gorgeous wedding dress like clouds, envy flashed in her eyes: "Miss San, the clothes sewn by No. [-] Embroidery House are really beautiful!"

Shui Lingyu glanced at the wedding dress complicatedly, and said calmly, "Marry the one in the cabinet."

Lu'er was taken aback, the one in the cabinet was made by Aunt Feng, didn't Miss San think the color was too bright?

The moment Shui Lingyu put on her wedding dress, tears welled up in her eyes...

Shui Linglong and Shui Lingqing saw this scene when they entered the door, Shui Linglong was slightly taken aback, but Shui Lingqing burst into tears with a "wow".She was already ill and her spirit was extremely poor. If Shui Ling hadn't spoken out, she would not have struggled to get out of bed no matter what.The crying now almost made her faint from crying.

Quan Fu's man laughed: "Everything hasn't started yet, and the two sisters are crying to get married? Come, come, sit down, I'll show Miss San a face."

Shui Lingyu restrained her grief, sat down in front of the dressing table, and did not comfort Shui Lingqing.

Quan Fuzhi twisted the hair on her face with a thin thread, Shui Lingyu blinked, feeling a little pain.

The people of Quanfu began to put makeup on her, and said with a smile: "Miss San's skin is so good, it's as white as jade without powder."

At this time, Shui Lingqing was crying a little out of breath, Qiaoer hurriedly took out the handkerchief to fan her, Shui Linglong opened Qiaoer's hand: "Don't fan her!"

The Quanfu people laughed: "Missy is right, everyone is not allowed to fan the fans on the wedding day." Otherwise, it would mean breaking up.

Shui Lingqing has already lost a relative forever, and now she is going to send another one away. In the past, she thought that Shui Lingyu was not as good as Shui Linglong, but at the moment of parting, all she can remember in her heart is Shui Lingyu!

"Third sister..."

Shui Lingyu glanced at her from the bronze mirror. In fact, she really hates this younger sister. She is not as smart as her, not as good-looking as her, and she always lags behind. she worries about...

Thinking of this, tears flowed down again.

Quan Fu's people hurriedly joked: "Oh, hey, auntie, don't cry anymore, I won't be able to put on my makeup if I cry again!"

The sound of firecrackers and laughter came to mind outside the yard, it should be Governor Jiang who came.Originally, when the bridegroom went through many "checkpoints", he would be blocked or even made things difficult, but Governor Jiang and the old lady were about the same age and full of official authority, and the two brothers-in-law were both in Xishan College, so no one dared to stop him.

He came to Shui Lingyu's yard unimpeded all the way, took her hand and headed towards Fushouyuan, which made everyone bend over laughing, how anxious he was!

The two kowtowed to the old lady, then kowtowed to Shui Hangge and Qin Fangyi at Changlexuan, and then boarded the sedan chair surrounded by everyone.

Many times the plan really can't keep up with the changes. Shui Linglong's original plan was to go to the palace with Bingbing to visit Shui Chenxiang after finishing Shui Lingyu's marriage. Unexpectedly, this matter was suppressed by another big event...

Prince's Mansion.

Looking at the anonymous report letter in his hand, Yun Li felt a beating in his heart. He never knew that Xun Feng, who had never been an official in the court, actually bribed so many senior officials in the court. Some of these senior officials were his contacts, and some were the third prince. The third prince is the son of a noble concubine, and his father guards the border with the old master Yao, which is considered to be more embarrassing than other princes, and he has had many conflicts with him over the years.

If this report letter is true, the years of pinching between him and the third prince would have become a big joke!

But what the hell... is it true?

Yun Li picked up another letter, which was written by Xun Feng, saying that the third prince's concubine is about to give birth, and if the eldest grandson of the emperor is born, the third prince's bargaining chip will increase a lot, please be careful of the third prince's various tricks Conspiracies and tricks, and he highly suspected that the third prince and King Zhenbei were in collusion. This time, the city with the dam was included in the jurisdiction of Kashgar, which meant that the imperial court wanted to control Kashgar. The difficulty is even more difficult, this is the harbinger of the third prince's conspiracy to rebel.

The reason why Yunli agreed to King Zhenbei's proposal to exchange cities was actually to show his favor to Zhuge Liuyun. If Xun Feng couldn't use it, he would definitely win over Prince Zhenbei's mansion who had a different opinion from Prince Pingnan's mansion.

Yun Li held a letter in his left and right hands, and his mood suddenly became very complicated.

When Bing Bing walked into the study room with a plate of tea brewed with fresh fruit, she saw Yun Li frowning. She loves him more than every day, and she will panic if she doesn't see him for a while, no, this is the fourth time she has come to the study today.

Bingbing bent her knees and said softly: "Your Highness."

Hearing this, Yun Li quickly suppressed the thoughts in his mind, and put on a warm and elegant smile: "The princess is here."

Bingbing put the tray on the small round table bravely, remembering the madness under the crabapple flowers in the backyard, she blushed: "The weather is getting hotter, I made some iced fruit tea, do you want to try it, Your Highness?"

Yun Li stuffed the letter back into the drawer and said with a smile, "Thank you, Crown Princess."

Why is this sentence again?Bingbing's heart was slightly lost.

Yun Li walked over to the small round table and sat down. Bingbing fetched water to wash his hands. He picked up the fourth dessert of the day, his long eyelashes trembling, and then he ate slowly, spoon by spoon.

After using it, without waiting for Bingbing to ask how it tasted, he opened his mouth first: "Prince Princess doesn't need to work so hard."

Is this... Do you think she disturbed him too much?

She packed up the tray, stood up and saluted, and said in a normal tone with lowered eyebrows and eyes: "Yes, I understand."

She walked out of the study in a melancholy mood, and met Cheng Nai, who was appointed by the queen to teach her manners in the corridor.
