Empress work daily

Chapter 22 Yin Buli

Yin Buli's appearance is not good, not even delicate, because she has inherited ten percent of the features on Yin Qilei's old face.

Except for their looks, their piercing eyes, and their tone of voice, the father and daughter are exactly the same.

After shouting, Ji Qiang gave him a seat.Before sitting down, Yin Buli took off the small basket on his back, opened the lid, and inside was a basket of sweet potatoes.

I just heard Yin Buli said: "I heard that Your Majesty likes roasted sweet potatoes. My father specially picked a basket and ordered my daughter to carry them. The sweet potatoes were planted by my mother. They are in the vegetable garden in the backyard of my daughter's house. Before leaving, my mother will They are washed clean."

Ji Qiang leaned forward and looked into the basket, and saw a basket of fat, big, watery sweet potatoes lying obediently, which was very lovely.

Ji Qiang was muttering about Yin Qilei's old man's other "drilling" tactics. For his daughter's success in apprenticeship, he even found out about her roasting sweet potatoes in the Shou'an Palace, which did not disappoint his "eagle eyes".But on the face, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and the smile reached his eyes.

She likes to see these chubby, life-giving eaters.

Ji Qiang ordered people to collect the sweet potatoes, but Yin Buli didn't seem to be cautious just now.

"How is Mrs. Yin?"

"Thank you for your concern, my mother is still healthy."

"What is your brother doing?"

"Return to Your Majesty, and I will not give up studying hard with my father to prepare for next year's autumn."

Ji Qiang was very surprised, "Your father didn't hire a teacher for your brother?"

No, with Yin Qilei's identity, it shouldn't be difficult to invite a great Confucian from the Imperial Academy, depending on who he is.

In two lifetimes, she has never heard of sending her son off in person.

That old man Yin Qilei is quite confident in his knowledge.

"My father said, he can read the books that my husband can read, so why bother, why spend that money..." Even though Yin Buli was serious, he blushed after saying this.

Ji Qiang really didn't expect this reason, he was stunned for a moment and laughed, only to see Yin Buli's head buried even lower.

"Since you are my companion, at least you are a seventh-rank female official." Ji Qiang put his hands lightly on her shoulders. Yin Buli was overjoyed and wanted to salute and thank her, but Ji Qiang stopped him, "Tell me about it that night." , How did you get out of your body?"

"Yes. That night, the minister was overjoyed when she received the letter from the national teacher and the Qixing Yanyue Saber. As the time approached, she sneaked out of the house..."

All Ji Qiang's confusion was focused on this point, so he interrupted her, "Even if the national teacher intends to let you be my companion, you can just summon him directly. Meeting a girl in the boudoir? Do you believe such a flawed situation?"

"I don't believe it, and I know who is in charge. But I still walked out of the house resolutely."

"Why?" Ji Qiang stared at those piercing, frank eyes, feeling very surprised.

"Where there is a game, there will be a break. But if the bait does not appear, it will be difficult to do both."

"So, you expected someone to save you, so you took the risk yourself?"

"Your servant expects that the national teacher will take action." Yin Buli said seriously: "There is nothing in the world that can be hidden from the eyes of the national teacher. How can the national teacher turn a blind eye to the other party doing bad things under the banner of the national teacher?"

Another fanatical follower of Jiang Jian, whose fanaticism is not inferior to that of Song Gantang.

It seems that the previous rumors about Yin Buli were not groundless.

"The national teacher really saved you. You have the courage and insight to understand the strategy, and the national teacher must appreciate it very much."

"No, Your Majesty, it was Yunhe, the elder boy of the national teacher, who helped the minister and daughter out of danger, and then the minister and daughter returned home, and did not see the national teacher that night."

That's right, when his daughter returned home safely, Yin Qilei thought about following the smell of meat to find the source, and pulled out Zheng Nanmu's little tail.

At this point in the matter, Ji Qiang has fully understood the ins and outs.She looked Yin Buli up and down, asked his age, and knowing that he was nineteen, she couldn't help but sweat for Yin Qilei and Mrs. Yin.

The daughter is already 19 years old and has not yet been betrothed to someone else, and now she is going to enter the palace to be accompanied by the monarch... Ji Qiang thought about it, could it be that the old man Yin Qilei has other plans?
For example, borrowing someone's favor to get a quick son-in-law, or, strolling around the palace with gold plating, so that a good girl will not worry about marrying...

"Your Majesty, I have made a great wish before coming here, and I will not go out without teaching." Yin Buli probably saw the doubts in Ji Qiang's heart, and boldly explained.

Ji Qiang was taken aback again, if he doesn't get married if he doesn't get a teacher, then if he can't study for a lifetime, he will never marry for the rest of his life?In this way, Mrs. Yin will not be blinded by crying.

"Then... what do you want to learn from the National Teacher?"

"Of course, the courtiers can learn whatever His Majesty learns. Aren't the courtiers coming to the palace to be His Majesty's companions?"

"Very good at talking. But I don't know, to you, what level is considered a teacher?"

"This, this will naturally be judged by the National Teacher."

As soon as Yin Buli finished speaking, Ji Qiang was drawn to look him up and down. The unattractive woman stood quietly, her breath was unsteady, a little excited, but her eyes were very firm, as if she had confirmed something.

Ji Qiang didn't intend to say too much, this person is the teacher of the state with his mouth open and shut, and his admiration for him is clearly printed on his face.

After Yin Buli withdrew, Huang Chang couldn't help complaining, "Is she here to be His Majesty's companion, or to learn art from a teacher?"

"Naturally, it's a combination of both." Ji Qiang picked up the biggest piece of sweet potato, and took a bite of it when no one was prepared, but it frightened the whole room. Shang Liujia even forgot the rules and overstepped the rules, so he snatched it up. , "Master Ancestor, if you are hungry, let's pass on the meal immediately. How can this sweet potato be eaten raw? What can I do if I eat a bad stomach... I deserve death, and I deserve death for waiting for crimes!"

Ji Qiang hugged the sweet potato tightly, protecting it tightly, his mouth still puffed up, "Sweet! Lin Buli is talking, come to Ziqian... Mrs. Yin washed it clean."

"It's still raw after washing it." Ling Lu's eyes were quick and his hands were quick, and despite several twists and turns, he still took down the sweet potato. Ji Qiang shouted helplessly, "You dare... I will punish you for a big crime of disrespect!"

"Even if you beat the minister to death, you can't eat this raw sweet potato anymore." Shang Liujia took the sweet potato, put it in the basket, and carried the basket and melon away.

"Fortunately, Sister Luyi is not here at this moment, otherwise..." Linglu pretended to be mysterious, and lowered her voice: "She will definitely be scared to death."

Ji Qiang was speechless.

It's not worth it, not worth it, to scare a capable female official to death by eating two bites of raw sweet potatoes.

Just at this moment, Lvyi entered the door, and reported that Yin Buli had been settled properly, Ji Qiang nodded after hearing this, turned and entered the inner room.

Not long after, there was a flutter of chaos outside, and for a long time, Lu Yi sighed softly, "Your Majesty, she probably wants to be the first husband and king."

Ji Qiang, who was meditating in the inner room, her thoughts drifted back to her carefree childhood. At that time, the Four King Kongs were like four big dumplings, leading her, a small dumpling, to wander around the palace and even Shanglin Garden. Once, taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the Habayashi army, they ran to a farmland not far from Shanglinyuan and dug a large basket of sweet potatoes.

After returning, the father not only did not punish them, but ordered people to light a fire in the courtyard of Guanju Palace, and personally baked sweet potatoes for her to eat.

The moon that night was big and round, and the sweet potatoes that night were the softest and sweetest.

However, when Ji Qiang just ate sweet potatoes, that wasn't what he was thinking about.

The moon is still the same moon, big and round.

A child who was about the same age as she used to dig up a shriveled and small sweet potato with the last bit of strength, but before he could open his mouth, the sweet potato was snatched away by his elder brother. , his eyes revealed the despair that he shouldn't have at that age.

The toddler died the next day.

Then it became a pot of rotten meat...
