The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 424

Cui Quan pretended to be thinking, thought for a while, and said: "Well, if you let His Majesty take charge as soon as possible, I will treat what happened last night as if nothing happened."

How is it possible for a subordinate to change the power in his hands?Jiang Chen lowered his eyes, guessing in his heart whether this old fox Cui Quan was retreating to advance.

A trace of sarcasm flashed across Chen Zhan's eyes, and he said bluntly: "You don't have to turn a corner to test me, just ask for anything."

"Okay, the regent is so happy, I don't want to hide it anymore." Cui Quan fixed his eyes on Chen Zhan, and said word by word: "I want the position of Minister of the Ministry of War."

Minister of the Ministry of War?What a big ambition.

Jiang Chen couldn't help reminding Chen Zhan in a low voice: "Master, don't promise him."

Chen Zhan showed a struggling look on his face. After a long while, he finally nodded: "Okay, but you have to give me time."

"No problem, just three months." Cui Quan was very straightforward.

".Row."

Chen Zhan took Jiang Chen away.

As soon as he got into the carriage, Jiang Chen knelt down in front of Chen Zhan, his face full of shame: "Master, this subordinate did not do well and caused you trouble, this subordinate deserves death.

"I also ask the master to punish, and the subordinates will have nothing to say."

Chen Zhan sighed: "I was careless about this matter, they first used the trick of diverting the tiger away from the mountain to lure me out of the mansion, and then made you think they were going to Songtaoju to save people.

"But I didn't expect that they would arrange someone to find the real place where the two little thieves were held and rescued them.

"You are also obeying the arrangement of the son, this is not your fault, get up."

Jiang Chen didn't get up, and persuaded: "Master, the Minister of War is Wang Wenqian, it's not so easy to pull him down.

"And the position of Minister of the Ministry of War is too important to be given to the Cui family, otherwise it will be even more difficult for His Majesty to govern personally."

Speaking of this, Jiang Chen's face was full of anger: "As a foreign relative, the Cui family has no self-knowledge at all. They use the guise of His Majesty to amass money and seize power everywhere. It's not for His Majesty's sake, it's clearly for their Cui family."

Chen Zhan interrupted him: "Okay, I will deal with this matter myself. I have sent people to watch the gates of the city. You must gather people and search the city. You must find those two little thieves."

Cui Hengyue originally wanted to take advantage of this punishment to recuperate in the mansion, but on the second day, Yao Shisan quietly sent in a message, saying that the regent's people had been searching the city for assassins all day long, and Song Zhuoxing was about to be overwhelmed.

She thought about it and decided to go out of the house.

He was planning to go out of the mansion at night in his mind, when the voices of the maids were talking outside.

"I heard that today Jiulang broke Hachiro's favorite cricket pot and let go of Hachiro's 'General'. Hachiro was so angry that he slapped him. His little face was swollen like steamed cakes."

"That's what Jiulang deserves, who told him to break Balang's cricket pot, Balang is the son of a legitimate son, just slapping him is considered cheap."

"How could it be possible to take advantage of him? When I came back from the kitchen just now, I heard from the people in Haitang Court that Si Niang wanted to avenge her younger brother, and she was looking for trouble with Jiu Lang."

Cui Hengyue rested her chin on her hand and listened for a while, rolled her eyes, and then called Shui Fu, and said in a low voice: "Go and help me with something."

After Shui Fu finished listening, she took a deep look at Cui Hengyue and left.

Half an hour later, Jing Lan, a maid of Haitang Court, ran to Cui Siniang and said, "Siniang, don't you want to help Ba Lang vent his anger?

"It's better to drive Xiao Shi, Ba Niang, and Jiu Lang out of the mansion, so that the third master can't see them. After a long time, he will naturally forget them."

Get out?
Cui Siniang's eyes lit up: "Good idea."

"Nonsense!" Fan Hua yelled at Jinglan: "You little maid, don't give Si Niang some messy ideas, if Si Niang does something wrong, the first one will not spare you."

Jinglan flinched, and said cautiously: "I just wanted to make Si Niang happy, I didn't think about anything else.

"When I passed the rockery just now, I heard Shui Fu from Jinglanyuan tell Bai Shao from Dafang that Yuan Niang had a hard time in Yunxuan Temple.

"The people in Yunxuan Temple abuse Yuanniang every day, they can't eat until they finish their work, and they can't go out, they just stay in the same yard every day, in the dark.

"Yuan Niang once said that life would be better than death in Yunxuan Temple, so she returned home.

"I thought, if Xiao Shi and the others go to Yunxuan Temple to experience it, they will not dare to be arrogant in the future."

Jinglan looked up at Cui Siniang, and emphasized with tears in her eyes: "Si Niang, I just want to make you happy. Since Sister Hongrui left, you have laughed less."

When Hongrui was mentioned, Cui Siniang felt a pain in her heart. After all, she was her maid who followed her since she was a child, and she was someone she trusted. When Hongrui just passed away, she was still sad for a while.

And since Hongrui passed away, after her grandmother allocated Fanhua to her, Fanhua relied on being someone close to her grandmother, and always restrained her with various rules.

During this period of time, she has not been happy at all.

Now that someone gives her advice, she naturally wants to protect it.

Cui Siniang showed the majesty of her master: "Jinglan is right, if Mrs. Xiao and the others are not in the mansion, father will soon forget them, just like Yuan Niang back then.

"Jiulang just got into trouble, so he and Xiao Shi were kicked out with this excuse. Yunxuan Temple is a good place."

Yuanniang's life in Yunxuan Temple would be worse than death, and it's the same for Xiao Shi, Jiulang and Ba Niang when they go.

Seeing that Cui Siniang made up her mind to drive Xiao Shi and the others out of the mansion, Fanhua did not disobey her, but just thought about it and said: "Now that the New Year is approaching, and Yunxuan Temple is too far away, even if the third master agrees, the old lady will not agree."

Cui Siniang's expression froze, a little angry: "I don't want to see them in the mansion, at least not this year."

Hearing this, Fanhua bent down and suggested: "Yunxuan Temple is too far away, but there is a temple outside the city. I heard that it is specially used to accommodate the wives of high-ranking and wealthy families who have made mistakes."

"You mean the Cining Temple?"

"Yes."

Cui Siniang had heard about this temple, and many ladies in Beijing had talked about it. People who went to Cining Temple had a very bad life, and they were often in agony, and tried every means to escape.

But they can't escape, and they are usually caught back.

"This is a nice place. I'll go tell my mother about it." Cui Siniang excitedly stood up and went to the main courtyard of the third bedroom.

Not long after, news came out from the mansion that Xiao Shi, the concubine of the third bedroom, voluntarily took her children to the Cining Temple to pray for blessings, and the old lady had already given her permission.

After Cui Hengyue heard the news, a flash of success flashed in her eyes, and she asked the people around her, "When are Xiao Shi and the others going to leave?"

"Tomorrow morning." Shui Fu replied.

"That's not too late." Cui Hengyue muttered, and then said to Shui Fu: "I'm going out tonight, you and Shui Rong will guard Jinglan Garden carefully."

Shui Fu opened her mouth, wanting to persuade Cui Hengyue, but after thinking about it, the matter was urgent, and this was the only way to go, so she shut up and went to prepare.

It was night, and Cui Hengyue quietly slipped out of the Yasukuni mansion.
