Splendid Book

Chapter 140
"Little uncle, no matter what happens in the capital, I want your people to ensure the safety of Changle," Ji Yu pinched the envelope in his hand and looked at Qiao Mingchen indifferently.

He has always treated Qiao Mingchen with great respect, and he has never acted like this before.It's like this now, because it's too worrying.He has only been away from Beijing for two months, and the situation in the capital has suddenly become like this. He is thousands of miles away, and if he returns to Beijing without his father's approval, he will be beyond his reach.

Looking at his expression, Qiao Mingchen knew that he was worried about Princess Zhao's safety, but he couldn't say anything.In fact, he was no less anxious than Ji Yu.At this time, all the princes are in the capital, and only Ji Yu is alone outside.

For so many years, Qiao Mingchen has fought bloody battles on the border in order to gain control of the army, so that he can one day help Ji Yu in the battle for the throne.

But right now, both of them are at the border. If the emperor is interested in Prince Zhao, then the imperial edict to let him return to Beijing should have arrived now.

"My father-in-law has received the news that the father is going to make my mother the concubine as the queen," Ji Yu turned to look at Qiao Mingchen, with a light smile on his lips.Although he is ranked seventh, over the years, he firmly believes that in the eyes of his father, he is no worse than any of his elder brother and the others.

Qiao Mingchen didn't know the content of this letter, he was still worried just now, the person the emperor had in mind was not Ji Yu.If the emperor really wants Concubine De to be the queen, then that position must be...

"That's really what it said in the letter?" Qiao Mingchen asked excitedly with a hoarse voice.Although this is something he has been looking forward to all along, but if one day his dream does come true, it will bring a bit of unbelievable ecstasy.

After waiting for so many years, he thought that he would not wait for the day to prove it to his sister, but this day is coming so soon.

He looked at Ji Yu, feeling so emotional that he didn't know what to say.For so many years, he refused to get married, and he didn't even have a woman by his side, just to wait to avenge his sister.Qiao Ming hurt his sister so much, but now he can still enjoy that kind of honor.She must also be happy, happy to finally get the Queen's position.

"Hanyuan, do you still remember what I told you?" Qiao Mingchen looked at Ji Yu with a slightly cold gaze. Compared to his sister who had never met, Concubine De was someone who had been with him for more than 20 years.

So how could he not be worried, when that day really came, Ji Yu would be merciful.

"Little uncle, I understand what you mean. If I really ascend to that position, I will definitely tell the world," Ji Yu looked out of the window. Not even a cloud floated above.

He had ridden a horse along the grassland outside the city before, and the feeling of running in such a vast world was not comparable to that of a small carriage in the capital.If it wasn't for the people he misses in the capital, he even felt that this border would not be the barren land that others said.

In fact, the products here are extremely rich. Every year after autumn, there are countless furs.Even two catties of tea can be exchanged for a whole leather.He once looked at Changle's wardrobe and found that what she likes most in winter is white fur, preferably pure white, without a trace of variegated fur.

It's just that the white fur has always been liked by the nobles in the capital, so even Changle only has two or three.

Therefore, as soon as Ji Yu arrived here, he asked people to collect white furs, and they were all whole sheets.Even Qiao Mingchen scolded him, as if he had never seen the market.

I thought this trip beyond the Great Wall would not end so soon.He once wanted to sneak into the tribe of the Tatars secretly, to see what kind of nation this nomadic nation was, which could still stand under the prestige of the great Wei Huanghuang.

But Qiao Mingchen resolutely opposed it because he was worried about his safety.Before Ji Yu could convince Qiao Mingchen, the news from the capital had already arrived.The father's health is worse than imagined, and even the decision to become a queen has to be made. It seems that the father has really made a decision.

"Xueqing, help me grind ink," Ji Yu ordered, and Xueqing who was beside him hurried forward.

Qiao Mingchen looked at him in confusion, and Ji Yu said resolutely, "I want to write a letter of safety to my father."

After Xueqing finished researching the ink, he sat down quickly, pondered for a while, and then began to write on Minghuang's memorial.Qiao Mingchen sat down on the rose armchair in the study. Although he was sitting at this time, the excitement in his heart could not be dissipated no matter what.

Until Ji Yu finished writing the memorial, he raised his head and said to him: "I am asking Father to allow me to return to Beijing in the Announcement."

"If you write like this, the emperor will be suspicious," Qiao Mingchen said with some concern.

After all, the emperor is the most suspicious, if Ji Yu asks An Zhezi to return to Beijing at this time, I am afraid that the emperor will suspect that he can't wait to go back and fight for the throne.If it really aroused the emperor's suspicion, the loss outweighs the gain.

It's just that compared to Qiao Mingchen's worry, Ji Yu smiled lightly. He looked down at the words on the memorial, sincere but not overly sensational.Others said that Prince Zhao is a cold-hearted person, but his coldness is only shown to outsiders.For those he cares about, he has never been stingy with his emotions.

Over the years, he can see who in the palace is really good to him and who is with bad intentions.

For his father, he looked up to, respected, and loved him, so even if it wasn't for the throne, he still wanted to return to Beijing.It was ridiculous to say that as a son, when his father was seriously ill, he wanted to return to his side to take care of him, but he had to worry about this and that.This is where the royal family is extremely indifferent and intriguing.

"If the father really wants to make the mother and concubine the queen, then he has already made up his mind. Whether I write this note or not, he will let me go back to the capital." Picking up the booklet, it was closed in one hand.

Qiao Mingchen was speechless, but looked at him fixedly.

Qiqiao Festival is a festival for girls. On this day, even the most reserved and shy girls will have a feeling of comparing themselves with others.When Shen Changle was still in the Shen Mansion, although the annual Qiqiao Festival looked calm on the surface, it actually started preparing for it not knowing how many days in advance.

Among the girls in the Shen family, even Shen Jin, who is the worst female celebrity, will seriously prepare on this day.

But now that she is married, she no longer has the desire to compete for beauty.After all, even if you want to fight, you can't even find an opponent.She was the only one in the entire palace, so she couldn't help but agree to Shen Jin's unreasonable request to come and stay for two days.

"Why do you remember that you want to live with me?" Shen Changle was really stunned when he suddenly heard this request.

For so many years, the relationship between their sisters can be said to be good, but it can be said to be passable.Especially when Shen Yue was still there, whenever Shen Yue showed any signs of wanting to curry favor with Shen Changle, Shen Jin was afraid of being left behind, so he hurriedly contacted her as a sister.

If Shen Yue treated Shen Changle indifferently, Shen Jin would not like hanging around Shen Changle so much.

For the behavior of the youngest sister, Shen Changle only sneered and commented, childish.But Chunliu understood her thoughts best, when she said these words, she said with a smile on the side: "But every time the fifth girl acts like a baby with the girl, I see the girl smiling happily."

"Why, third sister, you don't welcome me," said it, this was the first time that Shen Jin came to Prince Zhao's mansion alone.

When I came here before, I was either with the old lady or with my sister-in-law.So even if she came, she didn't dare to look around, she only knew that she, the third elder sister, was very wealthy, but she didn't have the luck to look carefully at the objects in that room.

Now she is here alone, and only the third sister is in the house.So she just stood up and wandered around, really not treating herself as an outsider at all.When she was standing in front of the chime clock which was half the height of a person, she only heard a light ding, and suddenly the small door on the chime clock opened, and a small wooden carved bird came out, scaring her back twice. Only then did he stop.

Then came a series of cries, one after another, crisp and melodious.

After the panic in her heart calmed down a little, Shen Jin looked at the bird with interest, who knew she hadn't seen enough, the bird retreated back to the original small grid, and then the door of the grid was closed.

Shen Jin looked at the chiming clock, immediately became happy, and said with a smile: "It's really interesting."

After she had looked at Dongshaojian and the Nuan Pavilion, she sat back beside Shen Changle.

"You don't want to tell me the truth?" Shen Changle turned his head to look at her, making Shen Jin curl his lips.

She lowered her eyes and asked softly: "The fourth sister wants to talk about kissing, do you know the third sister?"

Shen Changle was stunned for a moment, didn't expect that she was asking this question, shook his head, and said softly: "I haven't heard of it, but Sister Yue will also graduate from women's school this year. It's also the age to say goodbye. "

"That's right, that aunt of hers doesn't know what's going on now, she's crying in front of her father all day long. She's been wronged for so many years," Shen Jin said with disdain on her face, obviously already dissatisfied with their mother and daughter It has been a long time.

Shen Changle didn't know about these things at home, so he didn't say anything at first, just quietly waiting for Shen Jin to continue talking.

Unexpectedly, Shen Jin turned around and said angrily: "My mother has been locked up for many years, so it's possible that they still want to pour dirty water on my mother. I think their mother and daughter are the ones with dark hearts."

In fact, the back house of the Shen family is quite simple, even the problems that Shen Jin complained about were just commonplace.Shen Yue's aunt felt sorry for her, of course. After all, Shen Yue was the only one in Shen's parents' room who was a concubine. She is also the daughter of a descendant.Only Shen Yue was alone, with the status of a concubine.

So Shen Yue will inevitably have to put in more effort than them, but even so, the gap between the concubine and the concubine cannot be bridged.Just for the monthly silver, Shen Yue has less than Shen Jin, and the gap is even worse when making clothes and jewelry every season.

Besides, although there is no one in the Lin family now, the uncle of the Lin family is very good at doing business.Shen Jin's jewelry is on par with Shen Changle's, and Shen Yue's maternal ancestral home only received the grace of the master two years ago and took care of a small village.Just from my natal family, the three girls from the Shen family are completely different.If Shen Changle's family is compared to the sky, then Shen Jin's family can barely be counted among them, and Shen Yue's family is just a bunch of unrecognizable and infamous.

"She just said what she said, why should you be angry. Besides, the third aunt has been taking care of it all these years, which is the most fair thing. Her saying that will only make Dad hate her even more," Shen Changle comforted road.

Shen Jin felt better after listening to her words.

Probably also felt that Shen Changle was on her side, so when he spoke, he was also affectionate.

"Third sister, don't think that I'm just here to mess around. I saw that my third brother-in-law was not at home, and I was afraid that you would be bored at home alone, so I came to accompany you," Shen Jin twisted the yellow cloisonné enamel Purple grapes in a saucer with peonies.These grapes are new, and they are still breathing a little bit of cold air. They should have just been taken out of the ice cellar.

It's only early summer, even those who have ice cellars haven't started to use them yet.On the other hand, King Zhao's Mansion even has iced grapes.

Shen Jin was satisfied in her heart, she just felt that she really came to the right place this time.

Zisu led Shen Jin's maid to the courtyard where she was going to live, put away the things she brought, and then came back.At this moment, Luwu was inside the room, waiting for Shen Changle to order food.Shen Changle also knew the dishes that Shen Jin liked to eat, so he told her, "Fifth Miss likes to eat shrimps, let the chef make crystal shrimps."

"I want to eat almond tofu," Shen Jin added on the side.

Shen Changle glared at her directly, and said with a smile: "You are really impolite."

"That's natural. If I'm being polite with my third sister, you will definitely be unhappy with my third sister." Shen Jin giggled twice, as if I understood you very well.

Shen Changle snorted, and replied bluntly: "You really understand me."

"Of course, sisters love each other deeply," Shen Jin didn't know if it was because he left home, but the one who answered the conversation was very happy.

After ordering the dishes, Shen Changle asked Lvwu to order food in the kitchen.

Shen Jin was flipping through the script in her hand, thinking that it would be boring at the third sister's house, but unexpectedly, once she got here, she found a script that the third sister was reading.So she turned it up without hesitation, and when she saw something interesting, she discussed it with Shen Changle with relish.

This day was an extremely ordinary day, but Shen Changle would never forget it for the rest of his life.

Not long after Luwu left, the steward came, and then a person she had never seen before came to see her with something.

"Third sister, where are we going?" Shen Jin looked at Shen Changle in panic, and asked herself to change into a sarong.

Shen Changle was trembling slightly all over, but she still tried to calmly comfort her sister beside her.

"Save our lives."
