royal girl

Chapter 339

Holding the queen to press her, Concubine De's expression turned cold, "I heard that you are not in good health recently, so you should stay in your own palace and take care of her. If you walk around like this, if your condition worsens one day Oh no."

Xia Yingbai lowered her head and smiled lightly, her long eyelashes covered her moist eyes, the feud between Concubine De and her was already deep, and this is not the first time she has deliberately made things difficult for her, but she is no longer the one she used to be she is gone.

"My lady said that people who are sick should be diagnosed properly, especially those with brain problems. I will take my leave first. If I miss the time to greet you, it will be disrespectful to the empress." Xia Yingbai smiled. Leaning slightly, he raised his foot and walked in the direction of Fengqi Palace.

Concubine De pursed her lips tightly, no one could understand the meaning of Xia Yingbai's words, it was really reckless to use the Queen to suppress her.The soft sedan was restarted, looking at the unparalleled scenery in the harem that was still blooming like a brocade, Concubine De thought why the emperor didn't like to show up in the harem more and more recently.If you can't even see the emperor's face, even if you have all kinds of tricks, it's just a wink to the blind, what's the use?
To be disrespectful, if the emperor really had something on that day, only by serving the people in front of him can he get the greatest benefit, right?

If that person wasn't her, it definitely couldn't be Concubine Han.

The draft has excited the whole of Kyoto, and at the same time, the selection of porcelain suppliers to the Inner Court has also begun. Both of these events have a deep relationship with Prince Jing's Mansion, but Huiyu can't even take a step forward easily. .Because of Ji Qiyu's trick of sending the post back the same way before, now she can know what is being posted even if she doesn't show up, so in order not to disturb herself, she simply stayed in the mansion for peace.At this time last year, I was planning to go to Yucheng Garden to cool off the summer heat, but I'm afraid it won't happen this year.

"Things are exactly as the master guessed. Then Qi Heng really used the porcelain made by Tong Bainian to participate in the competition. The shopkeeper Wuda said that Tong Bainian's craftsmanship is indeed very good. People who make old ones can be used to make new ones. It's nothing to worry about. After Qi Heng sent the things up, many kiln owners of the official kilns were very surprised." Xue Qi whispered back in front of Hui Yu, and Su Jun basically stayed in the past two days. At the clubhouse, any news will be sent back as soon as possible.

Huiyu nodded lightly, "How did you decide on the pen holder?" At that time, Huiyu wanted Wu Chengzhe to come forward in person. With his weight as the president of the chamber of commerce, it was enough to prove the authenticity of this matter, let alone them. There are also seals and certificates.But then Wu Chengzhe launched Qi Qi, and now Huiyu doesn't know what Wu Chengzhe is planning.After all, Qi Qi's presence in the capital is not so wide, nor is it so important. With the signboard of Xin Guogong's mansion, they will suffer first.Because Ji Qiyu is too popular now, Huiyu doesn't want this matter to have anything to do with the signboard of Prince Jing's Mansion, so this matter still needs to be weighed and weighed.If this battle is won, it will be a serious blow to the Xinguo government in the business circle. This time, the Xinguo government has supported Qi Heng so strongly. various negative states.

Credit is the most important thing in business, but the same business strategy is also indispensable. The matter of Juyi Bank made Xin Guogong suffer a big setback. To re-establish everyone's confidence in Juyi, a strong brand blessing is needed.If Qi Heng successfully won the title of porcelain supplier, then the signboard of Xin Guogong Mansion will be considered secure.

The battle in the inner court this time, at a small scale, is a contest between the brothers of the Qi family, but at a deeper level, it is also a contest between Duke Xin Guo and Prince Jing's mansion.

"My servant heard from Su Jun that it was Young Master Qi who was going to come forward, but then the shopkeeper Wu Da and President Wu said something, and finally decided that President Wu and Young Master Qi would come forward together." Xue Qi said.

Huiyu's eyes flickered. A few days ago, Xueqi called her the guard, but now she just calls her by name.This thought flashed by, and my mind was on the matter of the pen holder again, and I understood it after thinking about it.Qi Heng has the support of the government of Xinguo. If Qi Qi is too shabby, he will be looked down upon. If Wu Chengzhe is with Qi Qi, although the status of a businessman is not high, the president of the chamber of commerce is also very important in the business district. exists.

Wu Boyi did a good job with this matter. Although he kept the matter from Fengyi Club from him and did not report it to him, it is a skill for him to solve it by himself, and Huiyu can't tolerate it.Now it seems that Uboyi is doing well.

While talking, Ji Qiyu came back, Huiyu greeted her with a smile, and asked, "Why are you back at this hour?" It's not even noon now, and Ji Qiyu usually doesn't go home for lunch Yes, when he first took over the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he wished he could take root there and engage in basic civilization construction, so that he could meet his high quality requirements.

Xueqi hurriedly withdrew to make tea, Ji Qiyu stretched out her arms and let Huiyu take off his heavy official uniform, and put on a homely light robe, sweating all over, Huiyu pushed him into the clean room to wash first After a while, he came out and said: "There is nothing important in the yamen today. I have something to discuss with Lao Qi in the afternoon. He will come here."

Changing the place of work to home, Huiyu didn't think it was strange, so she smiled and said, "Just in time, there is news from the clubhouse."

As Xueqi was talking about serving tea, Xueying brought a few plates of snacks on a boxwood tray behind her.After setting it up, the two girls bent over and retreated, their steps were light and strict.

Ji Qiyu didn't even look at the two girls, and asked about the clubhouse with her eyes, Huiyu explained the matter and said with a smile, "It's all right now, Wu Chengzhe is willing to come forward, and things will be much easier to handle."

"The selection of porcelain merchants by the Inner Court depends on whether the merchants have the strength. Second, the most important thing is to see if there is a way that others do not have. Qi Heng asked Tong Bainian to help out. This trick It's a good move. The next thing to see is that Qi Qi has no ability to suppress Tong Bainian, if he can't, I'm afraid that this spot will still fall on Qi Heng."

"It's definitely possible. As long as that pen holder appears, it will prove that Jinguzhai is pretending to be fake. This will deal a huge blow to Jinguzhai's reputation. When Qi Qi can come up with good things, he will be able to stabilize his life." I won." Huiyu said, without that pen holder, things would have been a little more difficult, but the pen holder has never been able to make a move by accident, and in the end it was able to accomplish this matter, maybe it is really destined in the dark .

Hearing Huiyu's words, Ji Qiyu didn't think too much about it, Huiyu was very talented in business, and some things were simply a stroke of genius, so she smiled and said, "Since you have such confidence, things will definitely go as you wish. "Even if it fails this time, it doesn't matter. If Qi Heng can take over the porcelain supplier, he can make him make mistakes. It's not a big deal.It's just that Huiyu doesn't like such dark methods, so he won't make a move until the end.

Most of the time it is unreasonable for you to reason with others. Only absolute power can subdue everything.

Ji Qiyu puts more energy into government affairs. He often uses political means to deal with affairs in the business circle. As a result, the words are not right, and naturally it takes a lot of effort and little effect.Huiyu doesn't dare to say how good she is in business, at least she understands things in the business circle. It is much better to use commercial means to attack opponents than to use political means to convince people.

Although doing business also depends on the people behind you, but more often, only when you have that ability, others will really respect you.

"Of course I can get what I want." Hui Yu said with a smile, "Businessman, once his reputation is damaged, it is often not easy to make up for it. But Qi Heng is not an easy person, and a pen holder is just a damage to his reputation. I may have missed the porcelain supplier this time. But he knew that the pen holder was in my hands from the beginning, so he could prepare the words and tricks in advance, so it’s too early to say anything. We just have to wait and see.”

When neither Huiyu nor Ji Qiyu can directly stand out, more things still depend on Wu Boyi's ability.

Putting this matter aside, Huiyu asked again: "I heard the news brought by Madam You in this draft, saying that several high-ranking concubines in the palace have started to make moves. I always feel that this matter It's a bit weird, did you hear anything." There was a pause again, "Prince Ning has a son, at least he has enough confidence, I heard that Concubine De is also happy in the palace."

Having a son is very different from not having a son. Having a son is equivalent to having an inheritance. If you really choose an heir in the inheritance, whether you have a son or not, whether you are a descendant or not occupies a very important weight.Although it is said that not many sons of the emperor's family have succeeded to the throne since ancient times, this requirement for orthodoxy has never changed.

Ji Qiyu sneered, and her complexion turned a little ugly, "It's just that I have an extra son."

Huiyu heard Ji Qiyu's angry words, and looked at him curiously, "Why does this sound so wrong, is there something you didn't tell me?"

Ji Qiyu looked at Huiyu for a while, but was still defeated by her fiery eyes, and then said after a pause, "It's not a big deal, but some people just want to go crazy when they have a son."

Saying this is tantamount to not saying it!
Huiyu knew Ji Qiyu's awkward temperament, he didn't like to talk about the bad things about Prince Ning's mansion at all, so she didn't pursue it further, anyway, it would be the same to ask others later.

In this case, Huiyu simply changed the subject, looked at him and said, "Then do you have any plans for the matter in the draft palace this time?" With so much commotion in the palace, Huiyu felt that it would be fake if there were no problems. It's just that the water is calm now, and the emperor is a person who is very good at covering up. Most people would not see what the emperor didn't want others to see.

"Let's take one step at a time, Your Majesty..." Ji Qiyu's expression became a little complicated, and she paused, adding some inexplicable taste to her voice, "The emperor now summons concubines to sleep in the front hall. , seldom set foot in the harem anymore. And basically they call young concubines."

Huiyu was taken aback, the amount of information in this sentence was a bit large, the emperor didn't even like to go to the harem, he only let the concubines go to the front hall to sleep, and he called young concubines.Young concubines lack qualifications and status in the harem, which means they have little influence in the harem... The emperor has already begun to guard against concubines who have high status and some power in the palace.

There is only one explanation for such a situation, that is, the emperor's body is not as good as before.If an emperor was in good health, he would not guard against his concubines at all. He would only make such a move when he felt that he was unable to do what he wanted.

Is the emperor's health already in bad shape?

Now that I think about it, Huiyu has a feeling of enlightenment. No wonder the government of Xinguo has made such big moves these days. Even Mrs. Lingguo would do that kind of thing. It turned out that they probably already knew something. Things in the palace.Ji Qiyu was away at war, and Nanny You didn't have the right opportunity and excuse to go into the palace to inquire about the news. She was inevitably a bit behind in the news in the palace, but she didn't expect things to come to this point.

The emperor sent errands to all his sons. At first, he felt that the emperor's behavior was a little strange, but now Huiyu understood.

It's really complicated and unspeakable feeling in her heart. She has been wearing it for so many years, but she didn't expect that now the emperor's body has started to go downhill.

It's like you have always thought that the big boss in front of you is a monster with a strong body and a strong waist, but in the blink of an eye, it has become a yellow flower of yesterday under the setting sun. This feeling is a bit shocking.

After all, she is not a native of this time and space, after all, she is a sandwich person who came through time and space.Her goal has always been to get rid of cannon fodder and strive to survive. Now that the emperor's health is gradually declining, this final competition is really on the agenda.

Huiyu had a sudden illusion that maybe when everything here was settled, where would she go?
Should he continue to stay here and be his mother, or be sent back to his own time and space, suddenly dreaming?
It seems that no matter the ending, she feels that it is not satisfactory, and she always has some regrets.

Ji Qiyu watched Huiyu wrinkling her brows with a tangled face, she didn't know what she was thinking. Her eyes were bright and dim, and her skin seemed a little transparent under the sun. If she got closer, it seemed that even the blood vessels under the skin could I can see clearly.The flesh that was so hard to grow when he was pregnant with Brother Yu was gone now, and he felt very ashamed of Huiyu in his heart. If it wasn't for him, why would she bother and work so hard, and now she has lost weight? There is no extra flesh, and the whole person looks like a paper man who sways when the wind blows.

Heart, I don't know why it suddenly tightened.

Ji Qiyu pushed away the kang table in front of her, took two steps forward and knelt in front of Huiyu, her nose was filled with the fragrance of plum blossoms coming from the triangular copper incense burner on the window sill, it was faint, not enchanting, But it can't go away, and stays in my heart.

When Huiyu felt a flash in front of her eyes, she was already held in Ji Qiyu's arms. She was almost out of breath with that strength, and she struggled to push him. Who knew that he hugged him even tighter, and it was difficult. squeezed out a little gap and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"I don't know, I always feel as if you will disappear in the next moment."

Huiyu's struggling movements froze for an instant. Just now, she was really wondering if one day she would come out of nowhere, no matter how inexplicably powerful.But thinking about it this way, could Ji Qiyu be aware of something?
The strength coming from the arms holding her made Huiyu's heart feel a little uncomfortable. She subconsciously wrapped her arms around his waist and said softly: "No, there will never be that day. We are destined to be together forever. of."

If it wasn't for meeting him, why would she come here to be cannon fodder?
Huiyu felt that no matter what happened, there would always be a causal relationship as long as it happened, so she decided that she came to this time and space to travel, maybe it was to meet him.

"Well, we'll always be together."

Ji Qiyu seldom said sweet words, and a person like him would always be embarrassed to say such words. Huiyu used to like to tease him, but now she just feels uncomfortable.

In fact, even she herself didn't know whether she was stationed for a long time or assigned temporarily.

There are always so many involuntary things in this world, such as her dressing as cannon fodder, or her falling in love with him.

I don't know if it was Huiyu's delusion, but since that day, Ji Qiyu basically spends more time at home for a few days. As long as there is nothing to do in the yamen, he can almost be regarded as working from home.Huiyu stayed in the backyard, and knew that Ji Qiyu was in the front yard discussing state affairs, Fengyi matters, draft matters, and all kinds of tricks of King Ning's family recently.

A woman's world is always confined to the four corners of the sky in the backyard.

Huiyu is luckier than most women, because Ji Qiyu doesn't limit her thoughts and actions.But Huiyu had to restrain herself, otherwise she would get used to the pursuit of freedom, and the constraints of the four corners of the sky would make her feel unbearable.

Handling housework, taking care of children, occasionally drinking tea with her mother's family, and occasionally complaining to her girlfriends, Huiyu's life track has recently completely embarked on the procedure of a wife in the backyard.

"I see that your complexion has improved a lot. When I came to see you a few days ago, I was almost as thin as a bone. If you want me to say that it is better for your son-in-law to be in Beijing, at least you can grow some flesh." Second Mrs. Dong brought her grandson to see her daughter With my grandson and granddaughter, the people behind me carried a large bag of gifts, and I felt happy when I entered the room and saw my daughter's radiant face and smiling face.

Huiyu took Brother Jun and weighed it. The kid was heavy again, "Our brother Jun is getting heavier and taller, come on, call me Auntie."

Brother Jun giggled sillily, and the hala flowed down the corner of his mouth. He is teething recently and always loves to drool.Huiyu wiped him, and Sister Zhao ran in with Brother Yu. When Sister Zhao saw Brother Jun, she called her cousin, but it was a pity that Brother Jun couldn't get away, so he could only crawl on the big couch. play.Mrs. Dong Er picked up Brother Yu who was paralyzed and kissed her, then hugged Sister Zhao, and said to Huiyu: "Sister Zhao seems to have grown a little bit, and she is also heavy, and her wrists are pressed. "

Huiyu took her daughter over and said to her, "Take your two younger brothers to play in the next room. Grandmother has brought you many interesting things. Take care of your younger brother and don't mess around." Withdrew the children and retreated, and sent away the troubled little ones. Huiyu watched Brother Jun go grabbing Brother Yu's sleeve, and Brother Yu hid aside. Dad is exactly the same, which is too bad.

After the room became quiet, Huiyu replied to Mrs. Dong's previous question: "Children grow up fast, and sister Zhao starts to grow in summer, and the clothes made in spring are just right. After two months, they will grow up." I'm shrinking my sleeves a bit."

Mrs. Dong Er was very happy to hear that, and said happily: "That's how it should be. Girls can't be too short, and they won't wear clothes that don't look good in the future."

Huiyu smiled and asked, "Why did you come here today without saying hello?"

"Take Brother Jun to look at your father's school. Now your father's Bohui School is becoming more and more famous in the capital, and there are good students in the school. A few days ago, the adults from the Imperial College came to see it specially. However, there are a few students who want to leave, and they are usually hard-working and studious children."

Mrs. Dong's second wife was so excited when she talked about the scumbag's school, she couldn't stop for a moment, Huiyu smiled and accompanied her to ask a question or two from time to time.I didn't expect that the Imperial College would really like the students of Bohui Academy. It seems that the students recruited by her father are quite talented.Because of the war in the south, this year's spring exam should be next year, and the draft can be restarted in autumn, but there are still autumn exams all over the country, so the exam cannot be re-opened in autumn, and can only wait until next year's spring.

"It's better to have serious things to do than to have nothing to do. Does Yunxuan's daughter-in-law have any good news?" Is Huiyu and Dong Yunxuan really familiar with each other? After all, Aunt Qing was still there.

"Not yet, young couples don't need to worry, there will be fate naturally." Mrs. Dong is very optimistic. She is not the vicious mother-in-law who oppresses the concubine and plays tricks on the children and grandchildren, so if they don't have fate, they will not be destined.

Huiyu just nodded and didn't ask any further questions. Dong Yunxuan didn't succeed in literature or martial arts, but he still had some talent in business. Dong Yuncheng took care of him, but he took care of the business in his family, and his income was still very good.Besides, Mrs. Dong's second wife never withdrew her family's share, and their little life was not difficult.

"I have something to tell you today. I don't know if you have heard the news." Mrs. Dong's second lady showed off enough scumbags, and began to talk about serious topics.
