Ruan's wife is pregnant

Chapter 197 Test of willpower

After talking for a while, the main thing was about the marriage between Xie Qingyuan and Ji Jingyan. It seems that Ruan Cailing was not the only one who was in trouble, even the emperor was worried. Ruan Cailing said to Mu Yizuo, "Since I can't control it anymore , let Xie Qingyuan and Anyang County settle the marriage."

Even if they are not married, now that they are both living in King Ping's other courtyard, it is inevitable that some people will make irresponsible remarks. Even if it is to settle the rumors, King Ping will definitely let Anyang and Xie Qingyuan get married quickly.

So it's better to just quietly watch their future direction.

"In that case, you will all be there? It is estimated that my ninth brother will definitely be there at that time, so I probably won't go." Mu Yizuo said.

The current situation of Mu Yizuo and Mu Yichen, although nothing can be seen on the surface, is actually incompatible. The ministers of the court and the central government know that these two people have their own backers, but except for Ruan Cailing and the others, No one knew what the emperor was thinking.

Just watching Mu Yichen act, the emperor also wants to know what Mu Yichen can do to get the throne.

This also represented whether Mu Yichen would still be alive after Mu Yizuo ascended the throne in the future.

Now that everything that should be said has been said, Mu Yizuo got up and was about to leave. Mu Yizuo glanced at Ruan Cailing and said, "Remember what I told you."

"Yes, I know." Ruan Cailing nodded, and Ruan Xuchen sent Mu Yizuo out.

Gu Jinxi in the private room was silent for a moment before asking Ruan Cailing, "What did Mu Yizuo tell you?"

Ruan Cailing glanced sideways at Gu Jinxi, and fanned her nose with her hand, "What's the matter? I smell a lot of jealousy in this room! Master, don't you? You still Are you jealous of the third prince?"

After finishing speaking, Ruan Cailing smiled when she saw Gu Jinxi's embarrassed look, she got up and walked to Gu Jinxi's side, holding Gu Jinxi's neck with both hands, and fell directly into Gu Jinxi's arms, the two of them leaned on the railing to get close Seeing the crowd below, Ruan Cailing didn't care.

She is already engaged to Gu Jinxi, and she is Gu Jinxi's legitimate fiancée, so it doesn't matter if she behaves a little more intimately.

It was Gu Jinxi who hugged Ruan Cailing tightly so that she wouldn't fall if she moved around in her arms. Gu Jinxi felt that her willpower had been sublimated, and every time she was alone with Ruan Cailing, she would treat him A challenge of endurance.

"Be honest, don't move around." Gu Jinxi patted Ruan Cailing's waist lightly and gently.

In her previous life, she was married anyway, and Ruan Cailing immediately understood what Gu Jinxi meant, and immediately dared not move. She still hung Gu Jinxi's neck with her arms in Gu Jinxi's arms, and said to him, "Mu Jinxi Yi Zuo just talked about Mu Yichen's recent developments."

During these times, Mu Yichen frequently went out of the palace. I don't know if it was because he wanted to see Li Chuqing or to do other things. Many people said that Mu Yichen's people came in the Yanhua Building just to spy on her. .

Apart from Mu Yichen saying that he was interested in her and wanted to get her, this was the only thing that worried Ruan Cailing.

The entire Yanhua Building has people from all walks of life, and there is no shortage of Mu Yichen's henchmen, but the bad thing is that she doesn't know who they are. She is not worried about herself, but only worried that if they find out about Xiyin, Lingfeng, etc. What about the identity of a person?
So after she went to Fengyue Tower and saw Cangxi, she bought Cangxi and gave Cangxi her identity.

Just to confuse the public, if there are people from Mu Yichen here, they will definitely be curious about her purchase of Cangxi, and they will definitely check Cangxi's identity, which will distract their attention, at least He won't focus on Xiyin and Lingfeng so quickly.

Gu Jinxi said, "It doesn't matter. There are people from your eldest brother in the Jiangnan restaurant. Now that the court is in turmoil and people's hearts are impetuous, no one can tell whose door the person standing next to him is entering. Be careful So, even Wen Rushi is the same, struggling."

Because of this, Ruan Cailing thought that he had to find a way for Wen Rushi so that he could stand firm in his current position.

Under the urging of Xie Qingyuan and Mu Yichen's party members, many people now say that Wen Rushi is in a high position just after he became the number one scholar, and he is not worthy of standing in this position at all. With his current rank and official position, it is the emperor's favor .

In the final analysis, it was because Wen Rushi didn't do anything to convince people.

Ruan Cailing and Gu Jinxi were trying to figure out a way to make Wen Rushi gain authority in the court, but after all Wen Rushi was a civil servant and not a military officer, so it was more troublesome.

If we talk about military officers, it would be fine to lead troops to fight a battle due to the turmoil in the frontier. Naturally, no one would dare to disobey his status after returning, but civil servants are more troublesome, even with the support of King Xuan and Duke Ding. After all, it's not as good as doing something by yourself.

"I remember that there is a small country in the east. Although I dare not invade it, it has always been domineering in our most remote towns. Why don't we let Wen Rushi come up with a countermeasure and take them down?" Ruan Cailing said.

Now that it was time to talk about business, Ruan Cailing naturally came out of Gu Jinxi's arms. When Ruan Xuchen came back, he saw the two of them sitting neatly, talking about Wen Rushi.

After hearing this, Ruan Xuchen said, "You are too late."

Before he and Gu Jinxi came out of the palace, they had heard that this was what they were talking about in court today, and the emperor also praised Xie Qingyuan for being able to solve his problems.

Now, because of Xie Qingyuan's and Ji Jingyan's marriage, Xie Qingyuan was mentioned a lot.

"Xie Qingyuan? Did he think of it himself? Or did King Ping tell him?" Ruan Cailing asked.

This is unknown, but the emperor entrusted Xie Qingyuan with full responsibility for this matter, ordering many officials to obey Xie Qingyuan's orders, which has already given Xie Qingyuan great power, and I don't know if it is because Xie Qingyuan is true. So won the emperor's heart.

It was still to save face for King Ping.

In short, the form in the court is on Xie Qingyuan's side.

In contrast, Wen Rushi, the new No. [-] scholar, seemed much more deserted. He had no one to support him, and he had made no achievements.

"How long has it been? There are so many people in the imperial court who have been moths for so many years and have not made any achievements. What do you expect a champion who has just taken office to achieve? Really, these old officials like to look for things when they have nothing to do."

After finishing speaking, Ruan Cailing looked at the cup in her hand, thought for a while, and suddenly raised her head and said to Gu Jinxi as if she had thought of something, "Since your Tianji Pavilion can get information, what is inevitable in the few towns on the edge?" Is it?"

Gu Jinxi thought for a while before saying, "A piece of news was sent two days ago, saying that one of the small towns died a lot of people because of the war, but because the corpses rotted in the city, it caused a plague, and it was very noisy. Yes, almost empty."

plague?

Such and such is considered a man-made natural and man-made disaster!Ruan Cailing took a sip of water, and the beads in her hands made a crisp sound when she fiddled with them. Ruan Cailing looked down at the beads on the eighteen beads and was silent for a while before saying, "If this is the case, then let someone blow the wind into the emperor's ears. , I want to thank Qingyuan for rebuilding that town!"

Since Xie Qingyuan has taken the matter to himself, why not choose the most difficult one, if Xie Qingyuan can handle it well, it will be good, if not, isn't it in line with their wishes?

The emperor will definitely blame it.

"The plague is inevitable, and it cannot be completely eliminated in a short period of time. At least it is impossible during the period after Xie Qingyuan got married. It can also temporarily prevent Xie Qingyuan from making any progress. His blessings are useless!" Ruan Xuchen said.

What a great idea!

Gu Jinxi also thought it was good, and said, "Well, I'll go and tell the emperor tomorrow!"

It just so happened that Xie Qingyuan was about to get married, this could be regarded as her first prize for Xie Qingyuan!Ruan Cailing took a sip of tea, and with the fragrance in her mouth, Ruan Cailing raised the corners of her lips in a happy mood and said, "It's better to let Xie Qingyuan and Anyang separate for a while, and leave immediately after getting married. It's best like this."

Although Ji Jingyan refused to listen to them, Ruan Cailing still wanted to avoid Ji Jingyan's body as much as possible. The same tragedy happened to her in the previous life. It is best to separate Xie Qingyuan and Ji Jingyan.

It would be even better if he could leave the capital and go to other places to do business.

But even without Xie Qingyuan, as King Ping was on Mu Yichen's side, it is estimated that Mu Yizuo would not let King Ping ignore him when he ascended the throne in the future.

"You seem to mind that Xie Qingyuan and Anyang are together?" Ruan Xuchen asked.

He thought that his sister didn't care about anything except Gu Jinxi, but in the past few days, because of the marriage between Xie Qingyuan and Ji Jingyan, he was always sighing, and he didn't know what to think.

Ruan Cailing glared at Ruan Xuchen and said, "What do you mean by minding! I just think that people like Xie Qingyuan are not worthy of Anyang!"

Although Anyang is a bit domineering and has a temper, but she is the princess after all, and Anyang has no bad intentions. It is better not to add innocent lives. It is a family to keep a family.

"Then this matter will be settled like this. I will send someone to pass the news to Mu Yizuo, and ask him to mention the plague in front of the emperor." Ruan Xuchen said.

Every country has a lot of taboos about the plague, and natural and man-made disasters are inevitable, so once it is mentioned, it must be a top priority.

Ruan Cailing said, "You send someone to send a message to Wen's family, saying that tomorrow I will invite Mr. Wen's concubine to drink tea in the banquet building."

Wen Rushi's concubine?Is that the one you saw in Wen's Bieyuan?Ruan Xuchen didn't understand why Ruan Cailing wanted to see that woman?Ruan Cailing has nothing to do with her?

"You want to see Wen Rushi?" Gu Jinxi asked.

Ruan Cailing snapped her fingers, pointed at Gu Jinxi and praised, "Smart!"

A woman in her boudoir must have a legitimate reason to see Wen Rushi, and this reason must be a woman.
