pampering wife

Chapter 171

"When the prince is involved, the queen mother and queen will definitely not sit idly by. But once the prince's crime is verified, how can the father tolerate him? I am injured at this time, so I don't have to go into this muddy water." I feel a little lucky. .Qingmei felt relieved, took the notebook next to her, leaned on his shoulder and turned it over.

The only sound left in the room is the staggered long and short breaths and the sound of flipping through books. The rainy weather is suitable for closing the door, and this kind of atmosphere is just right.When Qingmei saw something interesting, she couldn't help but raise the corner of her mouth, and Junli looked at her sideways with gentle eyes.

This is his wife, bright and delicate, and what is rare is that she has not worn away her pure and kind heart through the vicissitudes of life.Being with her will make you feel comfortable, like chatting over wine in a tavern, like going out for a walk in the outskirts of Wancheng, like hugging and whispering in Huazhi Lane, like...every moment with her, my heart is at ease, You can enjoy all the good things in life.The extremely lacking part of her life in the past ten years has finally been filled by her.

Jun Li closed the scroll in his hand, a little lost in thought.I have been working so hard lately, and finally there is a result, and the boulder in my heart is no longer hanging high.The prince's intention to collude with foreign enemies is obvious, how could the emperor tolerate it?Emperor Kuang is only in his fifties. Although he is not considered a mature man, he can manage the affairs of state in an orderly manner. How can he be willing to retire?The prince is over [-] years old and has a heart of disobedience. Once it is found out, the emperor may be restless.

Royal family affection, in fact, is nothing more than that.Flattery and flattery for the sake of power, scheming behind the scenes and guarding against each other, even between husband and wife, mother and child, there are gaps.The grudge is silent and invisible, but it always lingers in the heart, and it cannot be eliminated even after a long time. The emotional rift is naturally difficult to bridge.

Fortunately, there is a pure and kind little wife by his side, who can share the bed with red sleeves and read the books together.Jun Li tilted his head and kissed Qing Mei's forehead, but seeing that she had already fallen asleep at some point, he couldn't help laughing.

The court was turned upside down by the case of the Mid-Autumn Festival night. The fire burned down many houses and shops on both sides of the Royal Street. The people watching the lanterns either died in the flames or were trampled to death. .What's more, when a burglar committed a murder, the crown prince and the two princes were all plotted against. All the same things added up and made all the yamen very busy.

Prince Ying's mansion is quite leisurely, and Junli can do activities after two days of raising him. It's the time of autumn, and the golden osmanthus in the backyard is fragrant. He is very comfortable fishing and watching flowers by the lake with green plums.

The craftsmen acted quickly, and in the past few days, the wine cellar had been tidied up, and a warm interlayer had been made, which made Qing Mei very satisfied.The wine-making equipment was also shipped over quickly, and Qingmei sent people to buy fruits, and collected the sweet-scented osmanthus in the garden, half of which was distributed to the kitchen to make pastries and preserves, and the other half was used to make wine.

Calculating the time, Wu Yujian and He Zimo's wedding date is in mid-October, so they can be in time to congratulate each other with a few jars of fine wine.Of course, now that Qingmei has become a princess, the congratulatory gift cannot be simple, Junli ordered the steward to buy it, and then Qingmei will choose it, and prepare a generous gift.He Zimo is Qingmei's enlightening teacher, Wu Boren is Qingmei's noble person in wine making, how can Qingmei not pay attention to this marriage?

Because the case of Zhongqiuye has not been settled yet, Qingmei didn't dare to move around recently, so she sent someone to Huazhi Lane, knowing that Xu's family is well and the tavern business is booming, so she feels relieved.

Flowers are planted in short chrysanthemums, wine is served in long poems, the fragrance of chrysanthemums is gradually wafting, and the Double Ninth Festival is just around the corner.

Jun Li's injuries have fully recovered, so he must show his face in front of the emperor.After more than half a month, the matter of that night has been checked thoroughly. The emperor found out that the prince was involved in the matter, and he was very angry. When Junli went, he was crouching at his desk to approve the papers, and he coughed continuously. , the figure looks distressing.

When the emperor talked about this case, Junli didn't say much, so he comforted the old emperor a few words, and went to concubine Xiao Wei to pay his respects.

Within two days, the story came to light—the prince lost his morals, murdered his brothers, and even colluded with foreign tribes to plot wrongdoings, and was deposed as a commoner.Empress He's teaching her son was incompetent, her morals were damaged, and she was confined to the deep palace.The imperial decree was only a few hundred words long, but the secrets behind it made the courtiers speculate differently.

But these green plums don't know yet, she is busy in the wine cellar right now.There are many helpers in the palace, although there are not many who can make wine, but they are still very effective. She just sealed a few wine jars, when she heard footsteps approaching, and someone hugged her from behind in an instant.

"The crown prince's matter has come to an end." Jun Li leaned into her ear, "Decommissioned as a commoner, beheaded or exiled."

Qingmei was silent for a moment.What can I say?Collaborating with the enemy and treason, no matter who it is, the punishment is the same.I can't help but think of the Qu family back then, and many people must have been implicated.Now the He family has long since collapsed, the crown prince has been deposed as a commoner, and the queen mother and empress are also gone. In this way, the He family has also been uprooted.Those who were framed by the He family and died with injustice can finally rest in peace.

When Qingmei opened her eyes, her eyes were clear, "The crown prince has been deposed, so I don't need to keep hiding?"

"Wait two more days, I will take you to climb the heights during the Double Ninth Festival, and then go to Huazhi Lane to see your mother." Jun Li touched the wine jar, "What's in it?"

"Candied dates." Qing Mei turned around and stood on tiptoe to kiss him, "It's really kind of the prince to treat me."

"How good?" Junli asked vaguely.

"It's good anyway." Qingmei's voice was soft and full of joy.
