Report to the prince: The princess is a powerful strategist

After Qin Zezhao and Qin Zezhao were both drunk and unconscious, Jun Yi stood up from his seat with a smile, walked out of the dining room with clear eyes, and called someone to help Qin Zezhao and Qin Zezhao go back to their room to rest.

After Xiao Qi came back from Qin Zining's place, he had been waiting outside the dining hall until the servants helped Qin Zezhao away.Then he came close to Jun Yi and whispered: "Your Majesty, if Mr. Qin and the others knew that you had taken anti-alcohol medicine beforehand, how would they feel?"

Jun Yi glanced at him lightly and walked forward.

Xiao Qi hurriedly followed and reported back to the business.

"Your Majesty, the princess said that the people in the Marquis' Mansion will definitely be of great use in the future. This time she will arrange for people to visit the Changping Marquis' Mansion at night. It will be good if our people cooperate."

Qin Zining's consideration was correct, and Jun Yi didn't say much.

He had stayed in the Qin Mansion for long enough today, and it was not appropriate to stay any longer, so he took Xiao Qi to say goodbye to Princess Suihua.

As for Qin Zining's side, he naturally could no longer pass by openly. He could only wait until it got dark later and then sneak over.

As night fell, the entire Changping Marquis Mansion was shrouded in thick darkness.

Those places where the lanterns cannot shine are undercurrents surging in the darkness.

study.

Marquis Changping opened the door and walked out, saying to the boy guarding the door: "Guard the study, and no one else is allowed in."

"Yes, Lord Hou."

The boy bowed and responded.

Marquis Changping straightened his clothes, and then walked towards the backyard. The boy holding the lamp hurriedly took two steps to lead the way, and the others followed closely behind Marquis Changping.

In the backyard, someone from Mrs. Hou's side was already running over to deliver a message to her.

"Madam, the Marquis has come from the study."

Mrs. Hou responded lightly, "I understand, Cui'er, let's prepare the meal!"

"Yes."

Ever since she discovered the secret of Marquis Changping, Mrs. Hou was heartbroken for several days, and all affection for Marquis Changping was gone.

In recent years, if she wasn't afraid that her sudden change of attitude would arouse the suspicion of the Marquis of Changping, Mrs. Hou wouldn't even want him to enter her room again.

In other words, if the prince and the others were not there, Mrs. Hou would probably have reconciled with Mr. Hou as soon as she found out.

The maids came in and out, and soon the meal was laid out. Mrs. Hou counted the time and got up from her seat and went to the courtyard to wait for Marquis Changping to come.

No matter how unhappy you are in your heart, you have to do some superficial work.

As soon as Changping Hou entered the courtyard, he saw Madam Hou standing there, and walked over with a smile, "Madam, why are you standing in the courtyard waiting? Although it is spring, it is still cold at night. What should I do if I catch the cold? ?”

Changping Hou said thoughtful words as always, but now Mrs. Hou would no longer feel emotionally ups and downs for him just because of these few words.

"Master Lao is worried. I'm in good health, so the coolness won't bother me.

Lord Marquis, you have been busy in the study all afternoon, must you be tired?I have asked people to prepare dinner. Let's eat first! "

"Mrs. Yi's."

After saying this, Marquis Changping took Mrs. Hou's hand into the room and sat down at the table. During the meal, they adhered to the rule of not saying anything while eating and had dinner quietly.

It was not until the dinner was finished and the maids removed the food and replaced it with tea and snacks that the Marquis of Changping asked while drinking tea: "Madam said you have something important to ask me for, why is it so important? "The Marquis of Changping was still very satisfied with Mrs. Hou. Although she was relatively strong when she first married into the Marquis's house, she sent away a group of women in the backyard.

But in fact, in the twenty years since they got married, Mrs. Hou has taken care of the back house, and he has never had to worry about the affairs of the inner house.

Moreover, although Mrs. Hou has a reputation, she is actually much better than the kind-faced and dark-hearted eldest ladies in other mansions.

He would not cause trouble for his concubine for no reason, nor would he come to him when nothing happened.

This gave him great convenience. At least when he was leaving Beijing, the substitute could stay in the study as long as he wanted without worrying about offending Mrs. Hou.

It was precisely because of Mrs. Hou's temperament that when she said she had something important to do with Marquis Changping, Marquis Changping would come over from the study without saying a word.

Mrs. Hou picked up the tea and took a sip, and then said with a smile: "Master Hou, the important thing I want to say is naturally not as important as the major affairs of the court that Master Hou handles, but although this is a small matter in the eyes of others, But it is a major event related to the expansion of our Hou Mansion.

Zhong'er and Ming'er are about the same age. Ming'er has been married for several years, and how old are their children, but Zhong'er still doesn't even have a good relationship with her family.

Some time ago, I held several banquets at home. I originally thought that Zhong'er would take the opportunity to take a look. If there is a girl he likes, we can ask someone to inquire about it.

As a result, this child didn't match up with anyone. He is not young at this age, and he can't delay it any longer.

Mr. Hou, do you want to talk to him and ask him what kind of woman he is looking for?My concubine is also good at organizing things for him. "

For the mistress of a house, managing the marriage of the children in the house is indeed a big deal.

In this regard, Changpinghou didn't say anything.

However, he really couldn't decide on Zhao Kaizhong's marriage.

This person was sent here by the master. What is his identity?I don’t even know.

But naturally he couldn't tell Madam Hou about this situation, so he smiled and said, "Well, Madam is right, I will talk to Zhong'er another day."

"Master Hou, please hurry up and take this matter to your heart."

"Don't worry, madam, my husband will never forget you."

As Marquis Changping spoke, he picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

Mrs. Hou glanced at the sky outside and said tentatively: "Master Hou, have you finished your work today? Do you still need to go back to the study to handle official business?"

There were medicines in the study, and Marquis Changping was worried. He originally planned to go back to the study, but the lady asked specifically, so there must be other arrangements, so he didn't say that he wanted to go back.

"Is there anything else, madam?"

Mrs. Hou chuckled lightly and said, "Master Hou has been busy with official duties recently, so he has less time to spend with Shang'er. If Master Hou is not busy tonight, he and I will go and see Shang'er!"

The Marquis of Changping thought for a moment, he had been busy lately, and he really didn't see Shang Geer that much. Such neglect of his grandson would be seen by others, and those who were interested might be suspicious of him.

"Well, I haven't seen Shang'er for a few days, so let's go to the old compound to see Shang'er!"

Changping Hou said as he put down his tea cup and stood up from his seat, and Mrs. Hou also stood up.

The two of them went to the Prince's Courtyard and stayed with Brother Shang for a long time. When they left the Prince's Courtyard, it was already late. Madam Hou wanted to go back to the courtyard to rest. It was inappropriate for the Marquis of Changping to go back to his study at this time.

He thought that someone was guarding the study and the secret compartment could not be easily discovered, so he accompanied Mrs. Hou back to the courtyard.
