A Precious Pearl in the Imperial City - Chapter 66
“I remember how much friendship you have with the Fourth Prince?” Ming Jingzhou replied without asking: “Do you have correspondence in the past two years?”
“It’s not a friendship. It’s just that the king of Qi has read a few articles of mine, saying that his son is outstanding.” Ming Jiyuan thought about his past with the king of Qi: “The son didn’t dare to take it seriously. He went to Qi several times. The tea party hosted by Wang didn’t do anything else.”
“Then you know, after you left the capital, King Qi once said in public that you are his confidant. Reading ten articles from you is better than studying for ten years?”
“Isn’t that nonsense?” Ming Jiyuan worked in the north for two years. Because he often had contact with the local people, even his accent was slightly affected. He was anxious and brought his accent: “I’m not a fool. I’m with an adult prince. What is it to be a confidant and think that there is not enough trouble?”
Ming Jingzhou glanced at him: “Put your tongue straight and speak Mandarin.”
“Father, I really don’t have so much friendship with King Qi.” Ming Jiyuan stretched his sleeves: “I knew that none of these princes had good intentions.
“Okay, don’t be angry, you can do less with him in the future.” Ming Jingzhou watched him pull his sleeves: “Pull the sleeves back for me. You remind me that our Ming family goes out with a personable culture. People, do you understand?”
Ming Jiyuan took two deep breaths: “Father, tell me what happened to Wang Chen and Concubine Su to save his sister.”
“When my mother and I knew the truth, you were already on the way home, and I was afraid that the letter I wrote would be robbed and cause trouble, so I didn’t tell you.” Ming Jinghai said of what happened when Jiuzhu was young.
When he said that Jiuzhu was **** by the servants of the Zheng family and pushed into the cold river water, Ming Jiyuan couldn’t bear it and punched it on the rockery, and the rockery fell into the ground.
“The Zheng family is so cruel!” Ming Jiyuan gritted his teeth: “I must have them pay the price.”
“You came back too late. The Zheng family has already been sent to jail. The head of the Zheng family has been sentenced to beheaded. Adult men and women have been given out. All descendants are considered slaves.” Ming Jingzhou glanced at the broken rockery on the ground. “Take your temper. I told you earlier. We scholars must be mature and stable. If others are angry, I will not be angry. If others are angry, we will not replace them. In addition, the cost of repairing the rockery will come from your salary next month. buckle.”
“Father, are you moving so fast?” Ming Jiyuan bent down to pick up the broken rockery on the ground and tried to push it back. Unfortunately, the broken rockery was like a broken bowl and couldn’t fight back.
“It’s not my work alone.” Ming Jingzhou laughed mockingly: “When I first started investigating the Zheng family, several forces sent evidence to me. In this capital city, people who want the hapless family of the four princes’ grandparents , It’s quite a lot.”
There are many people in the capital who praise the four princes as virtuous kings, but there are also many people who have fallen into trouble.
“The Zheng family is over. The four princes gave birth to their mothers to die, and the four princes cut off all the titles.” Ming Jingzhou put his hands on his back and took his son to the east courtyard: “Jiyuan, when Jiuzhu became the fiancee of the King of Chen, we clearly Family can’t stay out of the matter.”
“unless……”
Unless Jiuzhu’s daughter is abandoned and she is allowed to marry Wang Chen, the Ming family will not intervene no matter what she encounters.
“No.” Ming Jiyuan knew what his father was going to say, and interrupted without thinking: “Father, we have lost our sister once, and now we are finally reunited as a family. We can’t do this to her!”
Ming Jingzhou looked at him.
“At the beginning we had nothing, and no jiuzhu.” Ming Jiyuan’s eyes were red again: “Now that we have jiuzhu, even if we have nothing like what we did in the past, there is nothing terrifying.”
“This is your decision?” When Ming Jingzhou wasn’t smiling, no one could read his thoughts.
“Yes.” Ming Jiyuan nodded.
“But now you are still very tender.” Ming Jingzhou chuckled lightly: “If you want to support your sister, you can learn from me and your uncle the way of being an official and the way of being a person.”
“His Royal Highness.” Shen asked Wang Chen: “I don’t know what your Highness has forbidden?”
“This king doesn’t choose, it’s okay.” Chen Wang said nonsense with his eyes open.
But Jiuzhu opened his mouth and said several dishes that she liked. Shen looked at her daughter and Wang Chen with a smile. Why didn’t she know when Jiuzhu started to like these dishes?
“Okay, I’m going to tell the kitchen to cook these dishes.” She stood up and walked to the door: “Jiuzhu, you accompany your highness around the house.”
“Okay.” Jiuzhu happily responded, and got up and pulled Wang Chen’s sleeve: “His Royal Highness, I will take you to see the little white horse.”
Wang Chen thought of the dog-like horse. If he remembers correctly, he gave Jiuzhu the horse.
If he hadn’t picked a white horse for her that day, maybe he had already mounted that crazy horse.
“Ming Xiaozhu.” He stopped her.
“Huh?” Jiuzhu looked back at him.
“You said…” He held her hand: “Are you the bride that Huaxihehe God gave me?”
“Impossible.” Jiuzhu shook his head: “Master said, there is no river **** in Huaxi River, and river gods are all deceptive.”
Why does it not rain in the sky is angering the river god, and he needs to go to worship.
Whatever the heavy rain for several days, it also angered the river god, and he still wanted to sacrifice.
These are all tricks used by false gods and practitioners to deceive people, but they have harmed many people.
Chen Wang: “…”
Okay, I can’t talk about it this day.
“Although there is no river **** in Huaxi River, His Royal Highness is Fairy Child.” Jiuzhu looked at him with a smile: “If there were no His Royal Highness, I would have been buried in the belly of Huaxi River, how can I be alive?”
“Bah, baah, Tongyan Wuji, good luck.” Chen Wang interrupted her: “What fate is buried, the first month said these are unlucky.”
Jiuzhu wanted to tell Wang Chen that when she was with Master, she didn’t pay much attention to it. But seeing his seriousness, he swallowed all these words back: “Then what should I say?”
“Say… a long life, everything will go well.” Wang Chen thought for a while, coughing dryly, and turned his head away from Jiuzhu: “What is good for a hundred years, and grow old together.”
He glanced at the girl secretly, and they were about to get married in eighteen days.
“Isn’t that what others told us?” Jiuzhu looked at him.
“We bless ourselves, what’s the problem?” Wang Chen asked back: “Don’t you think about it?”
“I never thought about leaving His Royal Highness.” Jiuzhu said naturally: “I chose to leave Lingzhou and come to Beijing for two reasons. One is to see my family, and the other is to find His Highness to repay me.”
“Then you haven’t thought about it, what if you can’t find me, or I’m no longer in Beijing?”
“I don’t know.” Jiuzhu shook his head honestly: “Because I have found your Highness.”
The assumption does not exist at all, so there is no need to consider this issue at all.
“The grace of life-saving should be promised by the body.” Wang Chen laughed inexplicably, bending over and looking at Jiuzhu: “Ming Xiaozhu, what you said today, don’t forget it for the rest of your life.”
Jiuzhu carefully recalled what she said to His Royal Highness today, as if she said a little too much: “All?”
“All.” Wang Chen nodded, especially the words that he had never thought of leaving.
“Okay.” Jiuzhu nodded. She will try to write down everything today and what happened today.
After Ming Jiyuan took a shower, he changed into clean clothes and came out. He saw his sister walking in the yard with a big white dog, and Wang Chen followed her. The two had their heads close together. In order to accommodate his sister’s height, Wang Chen’s whole body was tilted, neither demeanor nor comfortable.
He doesn’t understand, walking is just walking well, why should he maintain such an uncomfortable posture?
“Brother.” Jiuzhu saw him and waved at him. Yuan himself, who was crooked like a twist, stood upright in an instant, and became the tall and supreme Majesty.
“Sister, walking the dog.” Ming Jiyuan walked to the two of them and glanced at the big white dog.
“Brother, this is a horse, not a dog.” Jiuzhu touched the pony. “You take a closer look.”
“It turned out to be a pony. It looks so cute.” Ming Jiyuan stretched out his hand to touch the pony, and the horse obediently let him touch it, very docile.
“This was given to me by Your Highness a few months ago.” Jiuzhu smiled even more happily when he heard his brother praise his cute pony.
Ming Jiyuan turned to look at Wang Chen. Wang Chen smiled friendly to the future brother.
“Jiuzhu.” On the other side of the wall, he stretched out two trembling hands with difficulty. After a long time, the owner of the hands crawled over from the other side of the wall: “I heard that the third brother is back, come and have a look.”
“Sixth brother.” Ming Jiyuan looked at Ming Cunfu who was struggling to climb the wall in surprise: “Why are you starting to climb the wall?”
The sixth brother in the past was so gentle, let alone climbing a wall, even if he walked down the stairs, he had to tidy up his clothes twice. So in the past two years when he was absent, what kind of drastic changes have taken place in the family?
“The whole family can climb, I can’t even compare to my sister.” Ming Cunfu sat on the fence, panting and saying, “Brother third, come and help.”
“Every day I clean up some useless things.” Ming Jiyuan stepped forward and helped the youngest cousin down from the wall with one hand: “You just said that my sister also climbed the wall?”
He turned his head to look at Jiuzhu, Jiuzhu smiled embarrassedly, and he shrank behind Wang Chen.
“It’s okay. I can climb the wall, which means I am in good health.” Ming Jiyuan smiled: “The little girl will live longer if she moves more.”
He turned his head and glared at Ming Cunfu fiercely. While he is not at home, you, cousin, teach your sister like this?
Ming Cunfu: “…”
If he said, climbing the wall, he learned from Jiuzhu, would the third cousin believe it?
“Your Highness, Miss, and the two young masters, lunch is ready.” The Equinox walked to the lively courtyard: “Please come to the front hall for dinner.”
The maid took the little white horse away, Jiuzhu reached out and held Wang Chen’s sleeve: “Your Majesty, let’s go.”
Ming Cunfu felt that the posture of his sister holding Wang Chen was similar to the posture of holding the little white horse.
After lunch, Jiuzhu saw that his father and brother were discussing something, and decided to accompany King Chen back to the palace.
Ming Cunfu silently thought that a man as big as Chen Wang, and a bunch of dragon guards, the entire capital, except for your majesty, is the safest by his side.
But Jiuzhu doesn’t think so. Since the New Year’s Eve banquet, she feels that there are many people in the heart of Beijing, and everyone is likely to harm her Royal Highness.
Wang Chen led the horse and walked side by side with Jiuzhu on the street, and bought Jiuzhu some things that the little girl liked.
“See His Royal Highness Chen Wang.” A few Jinyi princes passed by, saw King Chen, and saluted greetings with a smile: “Your Highness, you just happened to come today, and we saw a particularly powerful rooster in the cockfighting ring with a red crown. The claws are like eagle feet, very powerful…”
“What rooster?” Wang Chen interrupted them expressionlessly: “As descendants of the royal family, how do you think about these things that are not motivated?”
“His Royal Highness, it’s not a rooster, it’s a cockfight…”
“What kind of cockfighting, this king doesn’t understand cockfighting.” Wang Chen looked at Jiuzhu, with helpless and distressed expression: “This king, these distant brothers, only know that they are idle all day long, which makes me feel broken.”
