Chapter 25

There was an inkstone lying on the ground not far away, and now it was broken into several pieces, the ink splattered all over the ground, a lot was splashed on the horse, and even the hem of his coat was stained with a little ink.

Rong Guogong looked up in confusion, but saw many students crowded together by the window on the second floor, laughing at him, obviously on purpose!

"Presumptuous!" The flames in his heart surged, seeing a group of guards about to rush upstairs, he suddenly thought that this is Nanxiang, a place where scholars in Beijing gather.Even if he is really offended and punishes a group of students, his notoriety will spread all over the capital tomorrow, and those censors in the court will definitely not let him go. It is a troubled time, so he has to keep a low profile!

"Come back!" Rong Guogong hurriedly called, and the guards froze in place, looking at each other.

Rong Guogong took a deep breath to comfort himself. Anyway, he can't do anything to this group of students. He only apologized a few times when he was arrested. If he behaved generously, he could buy people's hearts. Unexpectedly, there was a sentence directly from upstairs: "Hey , isn’t that Duke Rong?”

"Really! I'm sorry, sorry, I waited for the student to miss and almost hit the nobleman by mistake. I was terrified, and I asked the Duke to make amends."

"Grandpa's status is precious, how can you care about such trivial matters? Even if the daughter of the family borrows the work of the oiran to show off, she just laughs it off."

"Yes, the Duke is very generous!"

Rong Guogong was trembling with anger, and he had nowhere to vent, he was about to vomit blood.

At this moment, a tea-white handkerchief was handed over to him, Rong Guogong looked along the handkerchief, a pair of soft skin like creamy fat, and then up, a woman covered her face with a light veil, her only pair of beautiful eyes were like stars, It was full of smiles at this time.

The breeze was blowing, and the fragrance of flowers was faint. At that moment, Duke Rong felt his heart was drunk...

Inside Xiangzhu courtyard.

"What!" Aunt Chen stood up angrily and knocked down the tea set on the table, spilling tea all over the table.

Zhuang Minjing sighed: "Really, I have already checked out who I belong to. My father has not been back to the mansion for the past two months. He just rested at Liu Bailu's place. My father had redeemed her a month ago and raised her in the house. In a house in West Lane."

"How is it possible... Cousin, cousin..." Aunt Chen couldn't bear the blow and shook her body, even calling out her private address.

"This Liu Bailu was an official in her ancestors, and her parents were all scholars. But seven years ago, her hometown was plagued by a plague, and she was the only one in the family who escaped. She wanted to go to her uncle, but she was kidnapped by a kidnapper and sold into that class. Filthy place."

The reason why Zhuang Minjing checked Liu Bailu at the beginning was to find out whether this person came through time travel like her. Unexpectedly, there was nothing suspicious about the other person's experience from childhood to adulthood. The real thing is still being manipulated by someone with a heart behind her back, she dare not act rashly, and has restrained herself a lot on weekdays.

But who would have thought that after the investigation, it was discovered that Liu Bailu had become Duke Rong's concubine, what a haunting ghost!

With a heavy heart, Zhuang Minjing decided to consult with Aunt Chen after thinking about it.

"It's actually like this... No wonder my cousin doesn't like to come to my place these days, I thought, I thought..." Aunt Chen's eyes shed two lines of clear tears, and she couldn't make a sound.

"What do you think? Do you think father didn't come because I got involved?" Zhuang Minjing sneered, seeing Aunt Chen's guilty look, she said coldly: "I told mother a long time ago that you will give father's heart to you." How about you? You are always crying and crying every day. After a long time, how can father not be bored?"

Aunt Chen said aggrievedly: "Mother is not because of you. You were wronged that day. How sad are the gossips from outsiders? I am also angry at the Duke's distrust of you. Although he doesn't say it, I know he I already have a grudge in my heart, if I don't beg him to soften his heart, how will he plan for you in the future?"

Hearing Aunt Chen mentioning that matter again, Zhuang Minjing felt depressed, but one word almost ruined her reputation for so many years, not to mention her ambition and ambition, so her tone was very impatient: "Then father has softened his heart?" ?”

Seeing that Aunt Chen remained silent, she softened her voice: "I know that mother is doing it for my own good, but it is precisely because of this that I should grasp my father's heart. Father still has affection for you. As long as mother pleases me a little, What are the cheap hoofs outside? Both my brother and I need this pampering from our father to our mother."

Aunt Chen clenched the veil tightly in her hand, her heart was filled with soreness. She always thought that her cousin treated her wholeheartedly. Even though she was just an aunt, she had never been wronged in the slightest. It turns out that people's hearts are changeable...

"I understand..." Aunt Chen wiped her tears: "That bitch won't let us go without telling you that she hurt you. After a while, I must make her look good!"

Soon after, Rong Guogong returned to the mansion, and Aunt Chen changed from her previous depression and tried her best to serve him comfortably. After more than ten years of friendship, I vaguely regained some of the old love.

At this time, in the Imperial Palace, Yang Zhao and Yu Miaojun were playing chess with the lights on, and Yu Miaojun played a piece of chess, saying: "That matter can almost be prepared by Bai Lu."

Yang Zhao nodded: "Well, let Mrs. Chen live a good life for another two days, and inform Bai Lu to act in ten days."

The candlelight flickered, and calm returned again.

For the next few days, Duke Rong returned home to rest every night, and did not visit the West Alley during the day. Zhuang Minjing felt a little relieved when she realized that Aunt Chen had stabilized Duke Rong for the time being. As for Liu Bailu, she would wait until the limelight passed not too late.

However, Zhuang Minjing didn't know that her every move was already under the noses of the two of them, and even the information she found was intentionally released to her by Yang Zhao.

At this time, there was a book in front of her, with three characters written in regular script on it - "Six Kingdoms". Easy to defend but difficult to attack, taking advantage of the right time and place.But besides Xia, there are Chen, Chu, Wei, Yu, Hunan, and Jun. Among them, Yu, which is adjacent to Xia, is the most powerful. Over the years, they have continuously launched large and small battles in an attempt to annex Xia's territory. Xia was afraid of the danger, so he The frontier town with the lowest terrain was ceded to Yuguo five years ago, but in just a few years, the opponent's army is about to move again.

Now the ruling and opposition parties have been arguing endlessly, the emperor has not stated his position, and the princes are also reserved. Zhuang Minjing knows that it is because no one dares to take this responsibility, and no one is afraid of becoming a sinner through the ages.

However, although the article in her hand may not be able to persuade Emperor Xia to make a decision, it is enough to make him pay attention.

Zhuang Minjing didn't want to come up with "Theory of the Six Kingdoms" now, at least until she became the fourth concubine, but it's not as good as God, if she doesn't take the initiative to offer advice, she will miss the position of the fourth concubine forever, as for the other princes , The resistance is too great, the power is too small, and she will never change course unless it is absolutely necessary.

What's more, she never dared to reveal the works in her memory to the public. She never dared to forget that there is still a weird and mysterious Liu Bailu in Beijing!Instead of leaving these classics in dust, it is better to hand them over to the Fourth Prince, at least, he will keep them secret for her.

Zhuang Minjing is counting the days, she will reach the age of Ji within a month, if she begs her father at that time, maybe she can invite someone from Dingyuanhou's mansion to pass the message on her behalf?She must get in touch with the fourth prince as soon as possible. Even though the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet has greatly damaged her reputation, she believes that as long as the fourth prince has ambitions for that position, with the bargaining chip in her hand, he will definitely get him hooked!
"Six Kingdoms?" Yang Zhao casually flipped through the blue book in his hand. Not long ago, he asked Zhao Jiu to rub a copy of Zhuang Minjing's book recording poems.

He learned about Zhuang Minjing's anomaly, so he guessed that she would take the initiative to attack. Sure enough, that night, she rewrote "Six Kingdoms", and made concise annotations, introducing the various forces in the text.

It was originally a political essay using the past to satirize the present, but she turned it into a story. Although it is not an understatement, it is indeed a bit less serious.

"The grandfather of Sijue, exposed to the frost and dew, cut the thorns to make a place of size. The descendants treat it with no pity, and give it to others, like abandoning grass. Cut five cities today and ten cities tomorrow, and then you can rest overnight. Go to bed. Start looking at the four realms, and the Qin soldiers are coming." Standing behind Yang Zhao, Yu Miaojun read slowly.

It has been two years since this article appeared in the Jade Slips. At that time, she had helped the four princes defeat the prince and became the new crown princess. The article was presented, and the emperor read it with great enthusiasm. The starting point of the world.

Xu Miaojun smiled: "Even if it's a story, this kind of article is enough to shake the ears and make people think. It seems that we have to find a way to create opportunities for her."

Before Zhuang Minjing could contact the fourth prince, a major event happened in Rongguo's mansion.
