Self-cultivation of the noble concubine who eats melons

"Master, Lu Shangshu asks to see you."

Lu Xiang was a little surprised, "Invite the person to the flower hall." After speaking, he looked at Jiang Quan again, "Go back and tell the empress, let her rest assured."

Seeing that Lu Xiang didn't intend to write a letter, Jiang Quan didn't dare to ask more questions, so he quickly responded and turned to leave.

After sending Jiang Quan away, Lu Xiang carefully smoothed his thoughts, and then went to the flower hall to meet Lu Zhongqi.

Lu Zhongqi got up immediately when he saw Lu Xiang coming in, "I've seen Mr. Xiang."

"Sit, Mingda. Why are you here now, but you have something important to do?" Lu Xiang smiled and asked as he took his seat.

Lu Zhongqi looked at Lu Xiang's expression calmly and calmly, he didn't seem to be disturbed by the leak of the exam questions. Lu Xiang was so calm and relaxed, it seemed that his thoughts should be right.

He read the letter his daughter wrote to him, but she didn't know one thing. She was deeply tied to the right minister, and it would not hurt her muscles to jump off this boat.

Since this boat cannot jump, it can only help Lu Xiang through this crisis.

"I have something important to tell you." Lu Zhongqi said bluntly, "I just got the news that His Majesty will investigate this fraud case to the end."

Lu Xiang looked up at Lu Zhongqi, "Where did you get the news?"

Lu Zhongqi said softly, "News from the palace."

The news in the palace can only come from Lu Zhongqi's daughter, which is consistent with what Concubine Lu said.

"What do you want to do when you come to tell me this?" Lu Xiang looked at Lu Zhongqi and asked.

Lu Zhongqi sighed, "Master, I know that you were deceived about this incident, and that the fraud in the scientific examination was completely caused by the people below, but this time His Majesty insisted on a thorough investigation. If you still want to protect them, I'm afraid Your majesty is not easy to explain, but it will hurt you. Prime Minister Zuo is eyeing, such a good opportunity will not be let go, Lord Xiang, you should think twice."

Is Lu Xiang really innocent?
Not necessarily.

Lu Xiang took the money that the people below gave him as a filial piety. Although he did not disclose the questions, the examination papers were copied by other people. This is Lu Xiang's dereliction of duty.

At this time, Lu Xiangruo did not abandon the car to protect the handsome man, the consequences would be disastrous.

Does Lu Xiang really want to protect them?It may not be due to conscience, but it's just that he doesn't want to be bitten by the subordinates.

Compared with the subordinates, Lu Xiang naturally still valued his own future and safety, and Lu Zhongqi's persuasion coincided with Lu Concubine's.

"Who is behind the Yuquan Tower?" Lu Xiang looked at Lu Zhongqi and asked.

If it wasn't for Yuquanlou's meddling and printing of leaked test papers all over the sky, how could things have escalated so quickly?

"Yuquan Tower is the property of the Xie family, and the girl from the Xie family has a very close relationship with Song Jieyu."

"Song Jieyu again?" Lu Xiang was not going well, and now hearing this name gave him a headache.

This word made Lu Zhongqi's heart skip a beat, and he remembered that Concubine Lu's title was revoked and his daughter was grounded, and his expression was not very good.

"Yes, Song Jieyu is being favored right now, and Song Jieyu's cousin is taking the lead in making troubles about the exam questions, so don't touch her at this time." Lu Zhongqi persuaded tactfully, fearing that Lu Xiang would be angry and insist on using Yuquan Tower to vent his anger. The more you talk, the harder it is to end.

Lu Xiang smiled lightly, "Mingda doesn't have to worry, Yuquan Tower has made great achievements this time, maybe there will be other encounters."

Lu Zhongqi's heart trembled when he heard this, thinking that Yuquanlou might be in trouble after this incident.

However, as long as it is not at this threshold, it will be fine.

Song Jieyu in the palace may not really take care of the accident in the Yuquan Tower, let's talk about it at that time, let's talk about it after getting over the hurdle in front of us.

Fraud in the examination hall has always been hated by the emperor, not to mention that His Majesty needs good talents to fight against these veterans. Now that such a thing has happened, how can the emperor let it go?
He also remembered the words that Song Yanran and a group of students raised their arms and shouted, saying that they went to the Gongyuan, beat the Dengwen drum, and strived for a clear understanding of all the fame and fame!
Is this just to make things clear?

Naturally not.

Among the students who have studied hard in Han Chuang, there is no one who is not talented and rich in learning. This Song Yanran is not only outstanding in knowledge, but also has a good eloquence, and he can easily stir people's hearts.

Thinking of how soon after entering the palace, she became so pampered that the emperor even abandoned the third concubine, and Song Jieyu, who has only doted on her so far, deserves to be a family brother. This style is quite similar.

Lu Zhongqi had a toothache, after all, his daughter had fallen on Song Jieyu more than once.

Lu Xiang looked at Lu Zhongqi and said, "The left minister must have gotten involved in this matter, and you spread the news immediately, saying that I will die to protect the person who leaked the exam questions."

Lu Zhongqi was shocked, "Master Xiang?"

"In this way, the people who stir up the muddy water behind will show their whereabouts. At that time, you will cast a big net, and the left minister wants to watch the fun. If you don't die, you have to let him get wet."

Lu Zhongqi was overjoyed when he heard this, "I'll make arrangements now."

If only the Right Prime Minister’s line is damaged in this matter, the Left Prime Minister’s faction will definitely take advantage of the situation to suppress them, but if the Left Prime Minister’s people are dragged into the water, everyone will be in the same boat. No matter how selfless the Right Prime Minister handed over the person who leaked the exam questions, he will definitely be able to restore it in front of the emperor. some image.

The crime of malfeasance pales in comparison to these.

How can it be a simple person to be able to ascend the throne to worship the prime minister? Whether it is the right minister or the left minister, he has sat in this position for so many years, holding real power but not the emperor's heart. The big fanfare is clearly to show the majesty and authority of the emperor to the world.

Although Lu Zhongqi is in the Shangshu, he knows that it is difficult to be in it.

The harder the Right Prime Minister fights with the Left Prime Minister, it is best to lose both, so that he will have a chance to succeed in the future.

He Lanyun asked Song Yexi out for tea today, and they met at Yuquanlou.

Xie Linlang happened to be the director of Yuquan Building, and came to say hello to Song Yexi when he got the news, and Song Yexi happened to introduce Xie Linlang to He Lanyun.

He Lanyun looked at Xie Linlang, her eyes were picky, but she didn't have any malice. Seeing Xie Linlang's clear eyes, acting neither humble nor overbearing, she nodded and said, "No wonder you caught Yun Zhao's eyes. Let's talk together next time."

"Thanks to the love of the county magistrate, Lin Lang is really flattered." Naturally, Xie Linlang would not let go of this opportunity. The magistrate of Ming'an County has a good relationship with Yun Zhao. This time, he invited Ye Xi to drink tea here. There must be something wrong. The most ominous thing, their Xie family happened to be involved in one or two things, and she also wanted to inquire about the news from the county lord, so she had the audacity to sit down.

Song Yexi comforted Xie Linlang with his eyes, then turned to He Lanyun with a smile and said, "If Yun Zhao knows that the three of us drink tea together, he will definitely be envious. I must write a letter to her later and tell her about it." .”

He Lanyun changed her mind, looked at Song Yexi and asked, "I want to write a letter to Yun Zhao, can you bring it in for me?"

"Of course." Song Yexi nodded and agreed. It's not a big deal. County Lord Ming'an has a good relationship with Yun Zhao. She will definitely help with this job.

He Lanyun sighed that it would be inconvenient not to have a queen in the palace. If she wanted to meet people in the palace, she would have to wait until the New Year's Eve. If there were a queen, there would be too many banquets in the palace. Yan, it is easy to meet Yun Zhao.

He Lanyun thanked her, looked at Song Yexi and said, "I asked you out this time, and you can guess why if you think about it."

Song Yexi tried her best not to let herself go to see Xie Linlang, the Xie family was a bit ruthless, and she didn't know which side the Zhenbei Palace was on. Although He Lanyun had a good relationship with Yun Zhao, it was just a personal friendship. In the face of family interests, personal friendship is insignificant.

"It's a bit of a guess." Song Yexi showed a sincere smile, "How could the county lord ask about this matter? The Zhenbei Palace has always ignored these mundane matters."

He Lanyun didn't take it seriously, looked at Song Yexi and said directly: "I'm just worried about Yun Zhao, this time it's your elder brother who took the lead in making trouble outside, and the trouble is so fierce, won't Yun Zhao be implicated?"

Song Yexi: ...

In the eyes of the county lord, they are a bunch of dragging their feet!
Of course Song Yexi couldn't say that his elder brother had negotiated with Yun Zhao, and could only say vaguely, "Yun Zhao's temperament is similar to my elder brother's."

He Lanyun was only worried when she knew about it, because she was afraid that Song Yunzhao would go through fire and water for this cousin.

Turning to look at Xie Linlang again, "The incident of Xie's family scripture is quite famous in the capital. Many students now live in Yuquan Building. The greater the limelight, the greater the danger. You must understand in your heart."

Xie Linlang: ...

If it wasn't for the county lord's consideration for Yun Zhao's sake, she really wanted to turn the tables, but of course it was just thinking about it, she couldn't afford to offend the Zhenbei Palace.

Xie Linlang pinched her nose and said, "The county magistrate can rest assured, we won't hold back Jieyu."

He Lanyun looked at Xie Linlang and nodded in satisfaction, she was quite acquainted, "Don't you have some theater troupe in Yuquan Building? In a few days, we will have a concert at the Double Ninth Festival, and let your troupe go over."

Xie Linlang was overwhelmed with surprises. The Zhenbei Prince's Mansion had a special status in Beijing. If their troupe could make an appearance in the Palace, it would be like opening the door to the powerful family in Beijing.

Alas, the county chief's stabbing is nothing, and it's for Yun Zhao, she can bear it!It doesn't matter if you say a few more words, as long as the Xie family's weight in the capital becomes more and more important, their Xie family will not only hinder Yun Zhao, but one day they will also be able to support Yun Zhao.

"Then I would like to thank the county lord. I will definitely tell my brother to let the troupe sing well, and I will definitely not embarrass the county lord." Xie Linlang had a sincere and grateful smile on his face, but there was no flattery or flattery.

He Lanyun was quite satisfied, "Sing well, my mother will invite many wives to the house for a banquet that day."

Xie Linlang nodded immediately, how nice people are, the more the better!
Song Yexi thought that the county lord was an interesting person, first he knocked on the Xie family and then gave the Xie family a business, this business was not light, the Xie family had inherited the favor of the county lord, so naturally he would have scruples in doing things in the future.

Who would have imagined that He Lanyun would take so much trouble for Yun Zhao.

After He Lanyun and Xie Linlang finished speaking, they looked at Song Yexi and said, "I have a good marriage here, and I want to talk to your mother later, and you can ask Mrs. Song when she is free, so I can come over too." visit."

Both Song Yexi and Xie Linlang were stunned. The county lord, an unmarried girl, actually wanted to be a matchmaker?

Do you still want to be famous?
Probably because the expressions of the two of them were too expressive, He Lanyun's face turned black with anger. Can a big girl like her do such absurd things? "It's because I didn't make it clear. My third aunt and I came to visit together."

This is almost the same, Song Yexi heaved a sigh of relief.

The atmosphere of the three of them was a bit weird, and no one spoke for a while, and Song Yexi was too embarrassed to ask who he wanted to introduce to her.

She was quite curious.

Her mother has been very concerned about her marriage recently, even if the matchmaker mentioned a few things, it is not appropriate.

It is not known if the marriage is suitable for the county head Ming'an to speak up. If the difference in status is too great, I am afraid it will not work.

Just thinking about this, He Lanyun coughed lightly and said: "It's not someone else, it's my uncle's cousin, who is now serving as a general in the army and a military officer, I wonder if your family can match her. "

Song Yexi: ...

military attache?

"Then I have to go back and ask my mother." Song Yexi couldn't decide, her face turned red as she spoke, "For such a big matter, the county lord should invite the third wife of your mansion to come and talk to my mother directly."

They are all girls who haven't gone out, so how can we discuss these things.

Xie Linlang was dying of laughter watching the play, but she didn't show it at all. If she dared to laugh, both of them would run away with their faces covered.

Don't dare, dare not!
After Song Yexi came back from Yuquan Tower, she went to see her mother, but she didn't expect her elder sister to be there, so she told her the story expectantly.

Madam: ...

Song Guiyi: ...

"County Master Ming'an is simply messing around, how could he tell you about such an important matter first?" The lady's face was not very good-looking.

Song Yexi coughed lightly, "The county lord means that he is afraid that our family will look down on the military officer, and he wants me to say something first. If you don't mean it, just pretend it never happened."

"That can't be done like this. Are all the ladies in the capital so powerful?" Song Guiyi shook his head and said, "It's a big deal to talk about matchmaking. It's just to test our family's tone. Our acquainted wives are the ones who come to the door, and it’s just you little girls who talk about it.”

Song Yexi thought about it, and then said: "County Master Ming'an's temperament is so straightforward, and he doesn't have any bad intentions."

The eldest lady glared at her daughter, "Don't worry about this matter, I have my own opinion."

Song Yexi hurriedly nodded in response, she didn't dare to intervene even if she passed a message.

Song Guiyi looked at Ye Xi and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the Ming'an County Lord treated Yun Zhao well."

Song Yexi nodded, "It wasn't good at first..."

She briefly talked about the matter between Ming'an county lord and Yun Zhao, and Song Guiyi was happy.

Seeing how happy the two sisters were talking, the eldest lady sent them back to her yard to talk. Here, she sent someone to inquire about the marriage that the county master Ming'an said. She didn't know much about the Yue family.

Princess Zhenbei's natal family is not very prominent in the capital, and she usually keeps a low profile, and rarely hears about their family's affairs, and it is precisely because of this that she has to inquire carefully.

The next day, County Lord Ming'an sent the letter he had written to Yun Zhao to the Song Mansion. He even visited the house in person and apologized to the eldest lady. He gave me a good meal and said that I was fooling around, and the elders will come forward for such a big matter. Please don't take offense, Madam, because I am young and ignorant."

The eldest lady was indeed a little annoyed, but the county lord Ming An came to apologize so sincerely, she couldn't say anything more, so she just smiled and said: "The county lord is also kind, so don't mention this matter again."

He Lanyun handed the letter to Song Yexi in front of the eldest lady, "It's not easy for me and Yunzhao to meet each other. I heard from Ye Xi that she was just about to send a letter to the palace, so I had the cheek to ask her to help carry it."

What else could the eldest lady say, so she had no choice but to respond with a smile.

After He Lanyun left, the eldest lady scolded her daughter, Song Yexi bowed her head and remained silent.

"It's okay to send a letter, but right now, when the imperial examination case is at its worst, the county magistrate of Ming'an is engaged to the son of the left prime minister. I only got the news yesterday. This time, the prime minister left is secretly How can we guarantee what will be written in the county master's letter under such circumstances?"

Song Yexi's heart was shocked, she didn't know that Zuo Xiang was also dragged into the water.

"It's not that you haven't heard of the matter between the county magistrate Ming'an and Young Master Ji. She has been chasing Young Master Ji. I heard that Young Master Ji is not willing to marry this marriage. If it is to please Young Master Ji, what shouldn't be written in the letter? , wouldn't it implicate Yunzhao?"

"Mother, I don't think the county magistrate is that kind of person. She has a really good relationship with Yun Zhao."

"I hope." The eldest lady would rather think that she has a small belly than invite trouble for no reason.

The letter was finally in Yun Zhao's hands. Yun Zhao was a little surprised when he saw the two letters, but he was really surprised when he saw that one of them was signed by He Lanyun.

She opened the letter at home first, and saw that everything was going well with the Da Furen's writing, and the two prime ministers, the left and the right, were already biting each other, and there would be a result soon.

Song Yunzhao was determined. It seemed that the emperor's methods were tough, so the speed of investigation was very fast. There was not much time left for the two prime ministers, so a trade-off had to be made.

After reading the family letter, she opened He Lanyun's letter and was shocked when she saw the first sentence. He Lanyun said that she wanted to divorce Ji Yunting.

She knows how much He Lanyun likes Ji Yunting. Back then, she chased after him and fought Qin Xiyue several times. After finally getting engaged, why would she want to call it quits?

Thinking of this, she continued to look down, only to see that He Lanyun wrote that Zuo Xiang's mansion took the initiative to come to discuss the marriage, and she thought it was Ji Yunting's intention, and she was very happy.

Later, after getting engaged, Ji Yunting avoided her everywhere and always made excuses when he wanted to meet. At first she really thought that he was busy with his studies, but later his brother found out that Ji Yunting didn't meet her, but often went to the Sanyuan Building for a small sit. Guessing that Ji Yunting might still miss Qin Xiyue, he told her about it.

Song Yunzhao frowned, Sanyuan Building is indeed the place where Ji Yunting and Qin Xiyue meet the most in the book, it is disgusting for Ji Yunting to do so.

He Lanyun wanted to divorce but was reluctant, but she couldn't make her swallow these things, so she wrote to Yun Zhao to express her distress.

People who fall in love will always worry about gains and losses.

Song Yunzhao can understand this kind of feeling very well. After all, He Lanyun's feelings for Ji Yunting are not only the love between men and women, but also the friendship that grew up since childhood. It is really not easy to let go.

What disappointed her the most was not these, but Ji Yunting agreed to get engaged to her because Qin Xiyue wrote a letter to persuade him.

Song Yunzhao really didn't know what to say, Qin Xiyue really deserved to be the original heroine, she would do such an operation.

Isn't this deliberately disgusting?
He Lanyun's temperament must have been ignorant of the reason when she got engaged, but after the engagement, Ji Yunting's condition was not right, so she would definitely investigate, and this investigation will make it clear.

He Lanyun wrote this letter to her probably because she had already made up her mind, but it just made her feel better if she said it out.

Song Yunzhao wrote back to He Lanyun first, this time he didn't try to persuade her like he did when he was in the erotic palace, he just said that life is long and decades long, and she only hopes that she can live happily.

How to define this happiness depends on He Lanyun herself.

But for Qin Xiyue, Song Yunzhao really felt that he really looked up to her too much. The heroine in the book was resolute and unyielding to the evil forces. Why did she see the heroine as another shadow of the opposite?
When she first entered the palace, she wanted to use Zhenmei to make her famous, but she failed because of her hand.

Later, she was involved in several things in the palace, especially when Lu Zhixue confronted her head-on as if she was mentally retarded, Qin Xiyue contributed a lot, and there was also a dead Zhu Cairen.

Then there is Chen Guiji, in the book Chen Guiji is not wronged, but the plot will be later, this time not only the plot is advanced, Qin Xiyue also stepped on Chen Guiji's promotion.

The heroine's step by step step by step is indeed steady, but she is on the road of black heart and never turns back.

Song Yunzhao also competes for favor in the harem, and will protect herself reasonably, legally and premeditated, but the premise is that she will not take the initiative to count other people's lives.

I really don't know what went wrong, and things suddenly became like this.

After writing a reply letter to He Lanyun and sending it out, Song Yunzhao still couldn't understand, how could there be such a cheap person in this world.

This is because she is not doing well, so she can't see others doing better than her.

It's thanks to the fact that He Lanyun has been enlightened several times by herself, if she had the temper before, there would definitely be trouble...

Thinking of this, Song Yunzhao's expression froze, so is it possible that Qin Xiyue just wanted He Lanyun to make trouble?

The fate of He Lanyun in the book is not good. Now that Qin Xiyue is attacking He Lanyun, could it be because He Lanyun has a good relationship with him, so Qin Xiyue has nothing to do with him for the time being, so he wants to make things difficult for him?

The more Song Yun Zhaoyue thinks about it, the more she thinks it makes sense, and the more she thinks it makes sense, the more she can't suppress her anger!

Okay, if Qin Xiyue doesn't make her feel better, she has to find something for her to do!
She remembered that the heroine in the book had a crisis, which was caused by her elder brother accepting bribes. Qin Taifu’s eldest son, Qin Yuanjing, worked as a doctor in the Ministry of Industry and was in charge of smelting affairs. All kinds of mines needed the regulations of the Ministry of Industry to mine. , so this post carries some weight.

Qin Yuanjing took advantage of his position to accept bribes and squeezed the mines to make a lot of money from it.

Qin Xiyue is unkind, so don't blame her for being unrighteous.

If you don't give her something to look good, you really think you are a soft-legged shrimp.

After making up her mind, Song Yunzhao began to think about how this incident broke out in the book. She couldn't drag the Song family into trouble, so she could only use the hand of the troublemaker in the book to make the incident break out in advance.

Today's update is sent, cute little ones.
