royal princess

Chapter 104
It is true that Si Jin lacks an arm in this harem. Although Qi Ronghua's status is not very prominent, it is better to enter the palace early.With her current scheming, she is afraid that there are many secrets in this palace in her heart, which is really a priceless benefit for Yu Sijin.

Qi Ronghua's words were more thorough than what he said last time. After hesitating slightly, Si Jin got up immediately, gave Qi Ronghua a slight blessing, and said very solemnly: "Since my sister loves you so much, I naturally can't ask for it. I Let me solemnly swear today that my sister treats me sincerely, and as long as there is me in the future, there will be a day with my sister, if I break my promise, I will fall into the quagmire once and never recover."

Qi Ronghua didn't expect Si Jin to make such an oath, and he was really touched, and immediately helped Si Jin up, "Sister's words are too heavy, I can't bear it, why should it be like this, I can trust you .”

In being a person and doing things, you must show sincerity first, so that others can work together with peace of mind.

The two talked to each other several times, and finally reached a mutually satisfactory result today.As time goes on, you can always verify whether you are sincere today.

"Sister only cares about 'sickness', the empress, I will take care of you."

This is what it means to fight for Si Jin. Si Jin didn't expect Qi Ronghua to be straightforward, and he did it as soon as he said it, so he was really stunned for a while.

Seeing Si Jin's appearance, Qi Ronghua couldn't help pinching his handkerchief and chuckling, and stood up straight, "I'm going now, my sister should also prepare here. The emperor may have arrived at Changle Palace at this moment. The play has already started, we can't fall too far behind."

Si Jin personally sent Qi Ronghua to the door, "Sister, don't be in a hurry, if the emperor is in a bad mood, don't open your mouth." In order to avoid getting hurt, Xiao Qi's temperament is not kind, and he would vent his anger on others. It's not like this guy can't do it.

"I made a note, you go in quickly, since you are 'sick', you should look sick."

Si Jin understood, watching Qi Ronghua go out, turned around and went back indoors, watching the sky getting darker and darker, she might not have the chance to watch this good show in the harem tonight.Even if Qi Ronghua was sick and he was 'ill', Xiao Qi would not have given up Princess Yuzhen to see her immediately, and would always put on a show in Changle Palace.

That's good, it just gave her time to plan.

The night was cool, Si Jin sent Yun Chang to rest, got out of bed and opened the window, the night wind came in, and she, who was only wearing pajamas, shivered.

Qi Ronghua's plan was very good, and the empress's intentions were well considered, but she didn't have much contact with Xiao Qi, and she didn't know him very well.I'm afraid that he will know whether he is really sick or fake just by taking a look.Even though Si Jin wanted to fight the imperial concubine, she didn't want to deceive Xiao Qi blatantly.

A narrow-minded person like him will definitely make a note of himself, which is not worth the candle.

Besides, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Su family went back to Su's mansion today, and they didn't wait for Su's father to return to the mansion until dark, and there was no sign of his son, so Mrs. Su went up to meet her and asked, "Master, why did you come down so late?" Ya, Sheng Yang hasn't come back yet, but something happened in the palace to stop him?"

Su Xingyu entered the main room, let his wife change the official robe for him, washed his face and sat down, and then said: "There is something delayed in the yamen, I heard that the little princess in the palace is not right, Sheng Yang today You may not be able to come back at night." After taking a sip of tea, he asked: "You can see Jin Er when you enter the palace, is she okay?"

"Looking at the height, it's a little different from when I was at home."

"The Eighteen Changes of the Women's University, the facial features are opened, so there are naturally some differences. It's been two years since we saw each other. If it's still the same as before, you and I should be really worried." Su Shengyang is a man, so naturally he wouldn't talk to a woman So thoughtful.

Mrs. Su explained the situation after entering the palace, and then took out the brochure that Si Jin asked her to bring out and handed it over.

Su Shengyang took it with his hand, but he didn't open it right away, he just said: "It's my fault as a father, and now I have to let her take care of us, and I don't know that she is living under the eyes of the queen and concubine in the palace. How are you doing?"

Mrs. Su also felt melancholy, "Fortunately, she is only smart, even if it is a little difficult, she can still make up for it after thinking about it." It was this grievance that made them feel sad.

Master Su was silent for a while, looking down at the booklet in his hand, with a bit of melancholy on his face, "Since we have entered the palace, there are some things that we can't help even if we are in a hurry. For the sake of my loyalty to the Su family, the emperor can treat her kindly."

"My poor daughter, I shouldn't have sent her to run in the first place..." Mrs. Su wiped her tears with a handkerchief, feeling sore in her heart.

Master Su also sighed, "Don't be sad, this is life. You go to sleep earlier, I'll go to the study." He had to take a closer look at the things his daughter sent out.

Mrs. Su also knew what her husband was busy with, so she sent him out.

Going back to the study in the dark, Su Xingyu unfolded the booklet and studied it carefully by candlelight.

"Nu Sijin reports to father and lord Wanfu Jinan..." Seeing this sentence, Su Xingyu's eyes turned red, thinking of the daughter in the deep palace, his heart became more and more uneasy. If it wasn't for the persecution of the family, why would he have gritted his teeth and told her the truth? The daughter is sent on the road to run for election.

"...Daughter is all well in the palace. Don't worry about father. There is only one thing that is on my mind. I can't sleep at night, tossing and turning..."

Su Xingyu read the thin booklet for a full hour before putting it down. It proposed paid relocation and not causing public grievances, which immediately struck him like thunder.In the past, the reason why relocation caused public anger and grievances was nothing more than forced relocation, which separated people's flesh and blood and broke up families.It may not be a solution if paid relocation is possible, however, this requires a large amount of money to open the way.The household department will not take out a single copper plate, so where can I find so much silver?
In addition, he also came up with a way to change places and open up wasteland for rewards.The more Su Xingyu thought about it, the more excited he became. He kept circling in the room and thinking about it. The user's original land would be replaced by the same number of acres in Juehu County to make up for it.For example, all the grain produced without paying taxes in the first five years belongs to the pioneers.After five years, pay half of the land tax of Fuzu County, and after ten years, pay the full tax, but if ten acres of wasteland are reclaimed, one acre will be rewarded as private property to the wastelanders...

Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man.Su Xingyu felt that this plan was feasible, not only feasible, but if implemented properly, after five years, the tax would be a huge sum of money.The emperor's private treasury is rich, and the prestige of the court must be more important, and their family will be considered to be in the top by then.Ten years later, 20 years later, the emperor will hold the tax revenue of these Juhu counties, which is not a small number.

Su Xingyu himself had thought about the matter of relocating Juehu County to Ding Ding for several times, and the previous strategy in Quzhou was similar to Si Jinjian's words.It's just that it was not as clear and detailed as what she said, so I couldn't hold back my excitement at this time, and wrote a memorial of my daughter and my thoughts, and submitted it to the emperor tomorrow morning.He could even imagine that the emperor would applaud and applaud after seeing it.

As for the matter that Si Jin said needed silver taels, it was not something he could handle at this time.The household department refused to pay, and he didn't have the ability to force him to do bloodletting, so the emperor had to figure out a way for himself.

After being excited, Su Xingyu sat in front of the desk, thinking carefully, writing sparsely and clearly, every word was true.This memorandum has been sent up, and most of the troubles about the relocation of Ding have been gone. We only need to wait for the officials to be in place after Enke, and then we can show our talents.

Early the next morning, Su Xingyu put on his official uniform, packed the memorial and went out.

Before the main hall, civil and military officials had already been divided into two shifts waiting to enter the court.There was an accident in the palace last night, and those who are well-informed have already got the news.At this time, there are groups of three or five, whispering in private, although they dare not speak out, they also quietly inquire, wanting to know the result.

Cao Guogong and Wei Guogong were surrounded by people, Xie Huan was alone in a corner, practicing Tai Chi with others.On the other side, Wei Ge was smiling and chatting with people, but Li Ge's boss had a face that made people dare not approach easily.There were also three or five people who came to Su Xingyu to inquire about the news. Su Xingyu had always been a smooth person, except for those with different political opinions who spoke more violently, the rest were more friendly to others.So at this time, he was not alone, and when he was questioned, he just smiled wryly and waved his hands.

Ever since Xi Wanyi became a hot spot in the palace, and the empress single-handedly picked it up, Wei Guogong both disdains and wins over the Su family.From a distance, Duke Wei saw Su Xingyu surrounded by people, thought for a while and beckoned him to go.

Although Su Xingyu was dissatisfied with Duke Wei in his heart, he couldn't show it on his face, he pleaded guilty with the people around him, and then walked over slowly, saluting and smiling: "My lord."

Duke Wei showed a smile to Su Xingyu, and asked in a low voice, "Does Lord Su know what happened in the palace last night?"

"The lower official didn't know it at first, but just now I heard a few colleagues talk about it, so I know something about it." Su Xingyu said, "My lord, is this serious?"

Duke Wei carefully observed the expression on Su Xingyu's face, and found that he seemed to be ignorant, thinking that his daughter mentioned that Xi Wanyi was respectful and obedient to her in the palace, and his attitude towards Su Xingyu was more intimate than before. He said: "The old man got the news that Princess Yuzhen is really wrong, but it's not a big deal, it's just some wives' ghost tricks to compete for favor."

Su Xingyu frowned slightly when he heard the words, made a look of extreme worry, and said with a sigh: "My minister... I am really worried about Master Wanyi. She has always been simple, kind-hearted, never embarrassing others, and doesn't know Can you be safe and sound?"

Listening to Su Xingyu talking about Xi Wanyi, Wei Guogong really didn't take it to heart.The empress has always been careful in viewing people. Since she has held Xi Wanyi for more than a year, it can be seen that this person is not such an ungrateful and vicious person. Since she intends to win over Su Xingyu, she whispered: "Master Su, don't worry, the empress has already Tell Xi Wanyi to report her illness, no matter how troublesome this matter is, it will not be implicated on her, the empress will take care of her."

With gratitude on his face, Su Xingyu cupped his hands and said, "My humble minister, thank you Guogong, and thank you for your kindness."

Duke Wei laughed, raised his eyebrows, and said: "I heard that Quzhou Su will arrive in a few days, Master Su knows?"

Su Xingyu smiled helplessly, and said to Wei Guogong: "My lord, the lower officials will naturally know."

"Do you have a countermeasure?"

Su Xingyu shook his head, and said slowly: "It's not long before the next official comes to the capital, and he is too busy with official duties, so how can he have the time to think about these things. What's more, what's more, he just said what he said, and he has his own justice in people's hearts. "

Hearing Su Xingyu's words, Duke Wei knew that he must have got some news. Since he had a heart to win over, it was timely for Duke Wei to show his favor at this time, so he said: "Master Su, don't worry, even if Duke Cao It is not a family's opinion to intervene secretly, and the old man will tell the difference for you at that time."

Su Xingyu had a grateful expression on his face, "Thank you, sir, for your righteousness. I am grateful to you, sir."

Wei Guogong glanced at Cao Guogong in the distance, chuckled, and patted Su Xingyu on the shoulder, "Why do you and I see each other?" His daughter may not have a child in this life, if that Xi Wanyi can give birth to a prince , In the end, it is not up to the queen to raise her.At that time, the Su family expressed their kindness, so it is not good to strongly oppose it.

Su Xingyu didn't know what Wei Guogong was thinking at this time, but he also secretly thought about why he showed his favor this time.Anyway, there are no signs of it yet, he just needs to wait and see.

Si Jin didn't know about the excitement in the court hall. Last night, the cool breeze blew all night, but today she was really sick.His face was flushed and his forehead was slightly burning. The imperial hospital came to check his pulse and prescribed a prescription to decoct medicine to reduce the fever.The illness was severe, and Xi Wanyi was favored by the emperor, so they dared not neglect her.

After prescribing the prescription here, the imperial physician took the medical box to report to the emperor.At this time, the emperor was in the morning court, and the imperial physician conveyed the matter to Guan Chang'an.Guan Chang'an was startled, last night the queen's wife Yan Xi Wanyi's master was ill, he thought it was going to be a ring with the noble concubine, but who knew it was really ill.

"The imperial doctor wait a moment, I'm afraid the emperor will send you to ask questions when he comes to court." Guan Chang'an didn't dare to let the imperial doctor go back to the imperial hospital, and hurriedly left him behind.It's not easy for a concubine to talk about it, but when it comes to Xi Wanyi's affairs, one must always be careful.

"Yes, I should be like this." The imperial doctor originally wanted to go back to the imperial hospital, but Guan Changan said so, so he could only wait.This person is the emperor's confidant, he is not easy to offend, when Guan Chang'an entered the hall, he stood aside and waited quietly.

This morning, Xiao Qi got Su Xingyu's secret letter, and what he saw was a surge of enthusiasm. He didn't expect him to be able to get along with such a good plan.What was said in the memorabilia was quite similar to Si Jin's vague words before. I just met my family members yesterday, and today Su Xingyu was accepted. It was such a coincidence that he didn't believe it at first, but Su Xingyu thought It is said that this memorial was written two days ago, but some parts of it are not comprehensive, so I can only submit it after it is comprehensive.He also said that yesterday when his wife went to the palace to see Si Jin, she heard a word or two from Si Jin by chance, and then she had a flash of inspiration, and it was only through the back and forth that this was achieved.

The father and daughter wanted to go together, which made Xiao Qi feel a little uncomfortable.Thinking that Si Jin hadn't joked with him about this before, she was a little unhappy.Thinking of her, I can't help but think of what the queen said last night. The little princess is sick, and Si Jin is also sick. It's such a coincidence. She didn't show any signs of illness before. Could it be that she pretended to be sick to fight the imperial concubine? Compete for favor?
For a while, he thought that Si Jin would not do such a ghostly trick, and for a while, he thought that such a thing is actually not unusual. In order to win favor, he has seen even more stupid tricks than this before.If Si Jin really pretended to be ill to fight for favor, it would really make him sad.

After the court, Xiao Qi walked out of the hall with a very complicated state of mind. Guan Changan came up to meet him, and whispered beside him: "Your Majesty, the imperial physician came to report that Xi Wanyi has a cold and high fever, and she is still confused."

Xiao Qi paused, turned his head to look at Guan Changan, "When did it happen?"

"I heard that Xi Wanyi felt a little uncomfortable yesterday afternoon, but she didn't take it to heart. She didn't want to have a fever overnight. Chen De'an from Yihexuan went to the imperial physician early this morning, and he has already prescribed a prescription to reduce the fever. " Guan Changan said quickly, the imperial physician said so, but did not say the specific time.Guan Chang'an's friendship with Yi Hexuan has always been good, but the relationship between him and the noble concubine is somewhat dirty.Yesterday a queen complained to the emperor about the preface and Xi Wanyi's illness, and the imperial concubine wiped her tears to imply that Xi Wanyi was competing for favor.

At this moment, he deliberately said this, but it was to prove that what the queen said was true, anyway, he did not lie, it was just a special point, to give the imperial concubine some eye drops.

Xiao Qi didn't even see the imperial doctor, so he walked towards Yihexuan.Guan Changan hurriedly followed, and He Shiyi called the imperial physician to go to Yihexuan to stand by.He Shiyi watched the master chasing after the emperor with his heels hit, and then went to the main hall to look for the imperial physician, but didn't want to run into the little eunuch Hao Ren of Changle Palace head-on.

"Hello to Eunuch, I have something to ask to see the emperor, and please report to Eunuch." Hao Ren was ordered by the imperial concubine to ask the emperor to move to Changle Palace to visit the little princess. Shi Yi is not as arrogant as before.

He Shiyi chuckled inwardly, but his face was full of embarrassment, he looked at Hao Ren and said, "Eunuch Hao, you are late, the emperor is not in Chongming Hall."

Hao Ren was taken aback, and quickly asked, "Where did the emperor go?"

"I'm just a slave, so I don't dare to spy on the emperor's traces. How can I know that?" He Shiyi said slowly.
