Reborn Concubine Queen

Chapter 143 Situation Analysis
"Uncle Zhong, see off the guests."

"Wait a minute." Gao Qichang walked up to Shi Yiqing quickly, handed her the file in his hand, stared at her seriously and said, "I just want you to understand what I mean."

Shi Yiqing raised his hand to take the file, smiled indifferently and said, "Then I'll just wait for the good news from you."

After finally sending Gao Qichang away, Shi Yiqing was about to turn around and go back to the house to rest, when Mother Xu on the other side was already impatient, she rushed in quickly, and said in a hoarse voice: "Miss, why don't you let me come over to help you?" what!"

Shi Yiqing glanced vaguely at Song Zi who was following Nanny Xu, pretended to have a headache recurrence, leaned on He Mu's body and said, "I don't know if I talked too much just now, why do I feel like I have a headache now?" What about Ren? Fang Fei, follow the pine nuts to the kitchen and see if there is any soup that my mother made for me before."

Grandma Xu is really easy to deceive, seeing Shi Yiqing say this, her complaints turned into worry, she eagerly stepped forward to check Shi Yiqing's expression, and said quickly: "Miss is talking about Song Zi, take Fang Fei to the kitchen and put Make another bowl of the decoction you made earlier and give it to the young lady."

Shi Yiqing raised his eyes and gave Fang Fei a wink. That Fang Fei was intelligent, and followed Shi Yiqing's wishes, and pulled the hesitant Songzi out of the hall, then turned and went to the kitchen.

Seeing that Shi Yiqing was pretending to be an addict, He Mu didn't try to expose her, but put on a worried and anxious look, and followed Mammy Xu to help her lie back on the gums, using the excuse of fetching water for Shi Yiqing to freshen up, and stayed behind. Madam Xu waited in the house alone.

In such a big room, there were only the two of them left. Shi Yiqing, contrary to her generous and decent appearance, hugged Mammy Xu's arm coquettishly, and said, "Qing'er hasn't seen Mammy for so long, Mama Don't you want Qing'er?"

Aunt Xu smiled and reached out to stroke Shi Yiqing's hair, and said softly, "Silly boy, I've only been out of Shi's family for a few days."

Shi Yiqing pouted and argued: "The ancients said that if you don't see each other in a day, it's like three autumns!" Looking up and seeing Madam Xu pursing her lips in joy, she couldn't help muttering, "I knew it, now that you have that pine nut, Don't care about me any more."

Hearing this, Mother Xu was taken aback for a moment, and then said dumbfoundedly: "Why are you acting like a child, being jealous?"

Shi Yiqing snorted and said, "Before I was wondering why the whereabouts of this pine nut became a mystery after my mother left. I didn't think much about it at first, but seeing her here now makes me feel uncomfortable."

"You child." Madam Xu let out a faint breath, "After all, she has served your mother, and she is considered a caring person. She doesn't want to marry someone casually in her hometown, and I don’t want to go back to the Shi family to wait on fear, so I will let her live here for a while, and after a while, I will find a good family for her and marry her.”

Although Shi Yiqing still had some doubts in his heart, a smile spread across his face, and he was acting coquettishly and cheerfully hugging Nanny Xu's arm, when he was bumped into by He Mu who came in carrying a copper basin, Shi Yiqing's pretty face turned red instantly Transparent like an apple.

After dinner, Shi Yiqing was served by He Mu to wash up briefly, and then sent them out to lie on the mat with Madam Xu to enjoy the coolness.

Madam Xu stretched out her hand and patted Shi Yiqing's shoulder, and said softly: "I have already found the doctor that Miss asked me to find. I don't know when Miss wants to see him?"

Shi Yiqing nestled in Mother Xu's arms, seemingly unintentionally said: "I can't see him, after all, you and I don't know this person well, if something happens, we will report you and me, and I'm afraid we will pay him back at that time." It's not good for you and me to lose your wife and lose your army."

"What do you mean, miss?"

"Let Uncle Zhong go." Shi Yiqing paused, and said in thought, "Uncle Zhong used to be from the Xiao family. Although he has left now, he still bears the name of the Xiao family. If the doctor confesses to Uncle Zhong Come out, this account is only on the head of the Xiao family, it has nothing to do with you and me."

Madam Xu frowned and said hesitantly: "But, if it really reaches that point, wouldn't it be that Uncle Zhong was killed?"

"Don't worry, mother, as long as Uncle Zhong is loyal to you and me, I will naturally not abandon him." Shi Yiqing continued in a deep voice, "By the way, what I told you before, you can't do anything with Zhong Shu." Uncle said it too carefully, after all, this is a big matter, if one less person knows about it, there will be less danger."

"Miss still can't trust him?"

"It's not that you can't believe it, it's just that people's hearts are in the belly, so it's good to be careful."

Madam Xu was silent for a moment, and after a while she said: "Miss, are you really going to do this?"

Seeing Shi Yiqing looking up at her, Mother Xu's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly said, "I know, I know, and I understand your plan, but in the end, it's human life after all!"

Shi Yiqing was silent for a while, and said in a deep voice: "I have also struggled and thought about giving up revenge, but every time I hold Qi'er and see that she has no remorse at all and lives peacefully, I think, why, Why does she want to live so happily, but what about my mother, she is still so young, she has not seen her child, so she left like this?! Isn’t she a life, is it just because she is a concubine, So you deserve to be framed, you deserve to die in childbirth?"

"Nurse, why do I want my hands to be stained with Yang's dirty blood? But I can't just let it go, I can't just watch her Yang live like this, she has to pay the price for her actions." Shi Yiqing Turning to look at Madam Xu expectantly, "Mama, you will understand me and support me, won't you?"

The only response to Shi Yiqing was Mother Xu's firm hug.In this hot summer, all she can give is this hug.

After being silent for a long time, Mother Xu said in a hoarse voice: "But even if you are eager for revenge, you shouldn't show that thing casually, let alone hand it over to the young master of the Gao family. It's not that you don't know, but Gao Qichang For the close ministers around His Highness King Qi, giving that thing to Gao Qichang is equivalent to giving it to His Highness King Qi."

"What I want to give is Qi Wang Li Can."

Shi Yiqing looked back into Madam Xu's shocked eyes, curled her lips into a slow smile and said, "Mama may know that the emperor is weak and sick, and that the prince should establish the country, but everyone understands that the prince has nothing to be the crown prince, so he is destined not to be there. Zhang Longyi, but the emperor knew about this, but put aside the matter of establishing the crown prince, and ignored it for a long time. The princes are fighting for the throne, and I am afraid that they can't bear it now, and want to unite with important officials to strengthen their own power. She stood out among the many princes, and even ascended the throne as emperor smoothly."

"Miss wants to throw this hot potato to King Qi, so that King Qi can deal with the Yang family?" Madam Xu frowned and thought deeply, "Just, why is it King Qi? Because of Gao Qichang?"

Shi Yiqing sneered: "Where is Mammy thinking? I don't know what this young master Gao looks like in the eyes of others, but to me, he is just a stranger, so I don't choose to cooperate with King Qi because of him. It's just that among the many princes and important ministers, only King Qi will follow my idea and use the Yang family's excuse not to win over, but to suppress, so I will choose him."

Mother Xu was puzzled: "According to Miss, if King Qi wants to compete for the crown prince, it is beneficial and harmless to connect with the Yang family. Why would he help Miss suppress it?"

"Mommy may not know. Although King Qi came from a noble family, he suffered a lot from the seventh master of the Yang family in the early years. In the court hall, he suffered a lot from the open and secret losses. Nian blatantly supported the prince. Now that the prince is gone, he found Wei Wang Li Chi, and the grievances with Qi Wang have long been inseparable. Now that Gao Qichang saw the file, he must tell Qi Wang that Qi Wang must I won't waste this opportunity, even if I can't destroy the Yang family, it will still bring a big blow to the Yang family."

Although Madam Xu wondered where Shi Yiqing got the information from, she didn't dare to ask. After hesitating for a while, she asked another question: "It's just that even if King Qi defeats the Yang family, it's not the same as yours." What does it matter what I'm doing now?"

Shi Yiqing sneered, "Of course it is related. If the Yang family wants to recover, it is impossible to count on Wei Wang Li Chi. Among the relatives, only the Shi family can be said to be in court, but if the Yang family has a little For selfish desires, he will definitely choose to rely on the Shi family. His father has been an official in the court for a long time, and he will definitely understand the twists and turns. At that time, he can hide as far as he wants from the Yang family. In order to strengthen himself, the Yang family In the Shi family's position, it is inevitable to use Qi'er to play some tricks. However, if the Yang family wants to regain the attention of the Shi family, they must make some sacrifices."

"You mean?"

Shi Yiqing smiled lightly: "Don't worry, Mammy, I will definitely protect Curious's safety and won't let Mrs. Yang hurt him." After a pause, she continued, "By the way, Mammy may have to work hard these days, Hurry up and get the household registration in the south."

Mother Xu let out a deep breath, and said: "Although I don't agree with you leaving the Shi family, and I don't want you to take Qi'er to the south, but I also understand your temperament. If you are stubborn, even eight cows will not be able to bring you back. It's just that I have one thing, Qing'er, you must not do anything that hurts yourself. I don't want to have no face to see your mother in a hundred years."

"I see. Mammy is the best for me."

Mother Xu smiled helplessly, raised her hand and patted Shi Yiqing's shoulder, and said seemingly unintentionally: "Actually, to be honest, Uncle Zhong mentioned to me before that Young Master Gao is quite a good person. These days, he is helping to take care of Dengxiang Pavilion, and there are many things that Uncle Zhong doesn't need to talk about, he has already taken care of things."

Shi Yiqing snorted coldly, and continued: "There is nothing to be courteous about, either adultery or robbery."

Seeing that Shi Yiqing couldn't listen to anything at this time, Grandma Xu could only sigh silently, and waited for Shi Yiqing to fall asleep.

In the early morning of the next day, Shi Yiqing had eaten rice early, got up in the carriage and went back to Shi's house.After entering the corner gate, I went to Chunhui Hall to pay my respects to the old lady, and was about to turn around to dye the moon, but was stopped by Aunt Cheng in front of the flower garden.

Shi Yiqing frowned and looked at the emaciated Aunt Cheng at this time, suppressing the astonishment in her heart, and said calmly, "It turns out that it is Aunt Cheng, I just think it's who. something?"

Contrary to the generosity that Shi Yiqing remembered, Aunt Cheng picked her fingernails awkwardly, looked around anxiously, leaned in front of Shi Yiqing, and said in a calm voice: "Miss Nine, I know you have a good heart, so please look after me." For the sake of being close friends with Aunt Xiao, can you help me intercede with the master and let Miss Shi come back, okay?"

Shi Yiqing raised his eyebrows, pretending to be surprised and said: "What? Is Tenth Sister over there okay? When Sixth Sister came back, I heard her say that Tenth Sister is very good over there. He is fat and fat, and his spirit is much better."

Aunt Cheng said aggrievedly with red eyes: "To tell you the truth, Miss Jiu, if You'er is doing well over there, I won't be so worried."

Shi Yiqing couldn't bear to talk to her, so he said in a perfunctory way: "I think so, the tenth younger sister is the flesh that fell from my aunt, and I feel sorry for my own flesh and blood. It's just that the old lady is seriously ill recently and I don't care about things, and I can't say anything to my father. , I’m afraid I can’t help you. If Auntie really loves the tenth sister, why don’t you ask the mother? I think the mother is soft-hearted, and she will definitely ask the father herself.”

"This……"

Shi Yiqing continued: "Now my mother and the two aunts are in my grandmother's Chunhui Hall. If my aunt walks a few steps faster, she might be able to see her and talk to her."

Aunt Cheng seemed to have seen her last hope in the dark, she quickly thanked Shi Yiqing, and hurried to Chunhui Hall.He Mu, who was by his side, watched Aunt Cheng's back, leaned in front of Shi Yiqing and said softly, "Then Miss Shi and Miss have never gotten along, so why do you help her?"

Shi Yiqing raised his eyebrows and said indifferently: "The ancients said that when the water is clear, there will be no fish. If the calm lake surface of this pool is not disturbed, how can the big fish jump out by itself?"

Just after dinner that day, Shi Yiqing lazily nestled on the back of the chair in the courtyard to enjoy the cool air, occasionally chatting with Jianliu and others for a while, the shadow of the curtain hurriedly turned to dye the moon, and whispered in her ear : "Miss, something is wrong. Miss Ten, Miss Ten ran away from the temple."

Shi Yiqing raised his eyebrows: "What's going on?"

Lian Ying hurriedly said: "I don't know the specific slaves, but Xiao Yanzi who came back said that he was originally ordered by the old lady to pick up Miss Ten, but he didn't know that the nanny sent by the old lady said so. What, Miss Ten seemed to go crazy suddenly, she scratched and scratched, and refused to come back after saying nothing. The nanny had no choice but to tell the old lady first when she wanted to come back. Someone came to report, saying that Miss Shi jumped over the wall and escaped. Aunt Cheng fainted on the spot when she heard the news."

"This is strange. Although Shi Yunyou has a stupid temperament, he will not go crazy for no reason, and he will not run away without permission." Shi Yiqing lowered his eyes and thought, and asked, "Which one is the one sent by grandma?" Mammy?"

"It's the nanny of the Guo family who married with the old lady a few years ago."

Shi Yiqing became more and more suspicious: "The mother of the Guo family is the old lady's confidant, and she is the safest person to do things. How could such a scene happen?" I became impatient, "Forget it, this matter has nothing to do with us, if Shi Yunyou wants to escape, let her escape, don't worry about it."

Just as the curtain was about to recede, Shi Yiqing asked again: "Did you take to heart what I asked you to do before?"

Lian Ying was stunned for a moment, then turned her eyes and hurriedly replied: "Young lady's order, I don't dare to delay, I arranged someone to wait for me early in the morning. Just now when I was returning to Baifang Garden, I accidentally saw that our master was about to go to Tangliyuan Go in the direction, I think this time has come."

Shi Yiqing looked down and played with the silver ring in his hand, and asked slowly: "Will father go to see Aunt Cheng again soon?"

"Occasionally I will go to see it, but Aunt Cheng has been having trouble sleeping and eating because of Miss Ten's affairs recently, and even disturbed the master, who has become impatient and doesn't bother to meddle in Aunt Cheng's affairs."

Shi Yiqing raised her eyebrows: "Oh? Father still ignores Aunt Cheng's affairs?" Turning her eyes and thinking for a while, recalling the appearance of Aunt Cheng she saw in front of the flower garden before, she couldn't help being suspicious, "Aunt Cheng is the best at dressing herself up By the way, it seems that since she was beaten by the grandmother, she began to look confused and old. When I saw her a while ago, I almost couldn't recognize her."

Lian Ying replied: "Miss, I'm afraid I don't know, the master has recently taken a girl from Aunt Cheng's house as a roommate, and it is said that Aunt Cheng has arranged a room for her to tidy up. Madam, let me give you a title."

Shi Yiqing sneered and said, "You want to be given a title again? Father is really a noble person who forgets things a lot, and he doesn't remember that it was because of this trouble before, but now he wants to repeat the same mistakes? But then again, mother is so jealous. This time you agreed uncharacteristically?"

"That girl was originally sent by my wife to Aunt Cheng's side a few days ago. She said she was serving, and it was obvious that she wanted to break up the matter between Aunt Cheng and the master. Now that the matter is over, why don't you put on an adult beauty and look at her?" On the one hand, it can achieve the purpose of what it wants to do, and on the other hand, it can also win a good name, is it reasonable not to do it?"

Shi Yiqing glanced at Lian Ying jokingly: "I really didn't expect that you, a little girl who hasn't made a film yet, can analyze the affairs of the master and wife of the mansion so clearly?"

Lian Ying stretched out her hand to tease the back of Sao's head, and smiled embarrassedly: "It's not my idea, I just heard a few words from someone outside, and when I came back, I parroted it and talked to the lady."

Shi Yiqing smiled: "This is also a good thing. I can clearly distinguish which things need to be reported and which things should be laughed off as a joke. Okay, you are also tired today, go down and rest, I will let you cut the flow later Bring you something you like to eat."
