He looked at her tightly shut eyes and wanted to see her open them again. He wanted to see the light in her eyes. But when she opened her eyes, he felt that he could not look her in the eye because…because…
But what did he hear yesterday? That elf ghost, Ye Ye, ran over excitedly and told him that not only would the crown prince consort not cause trouble for him to take in a secondary consort, she had even prepared a gift for him. It was a scarf and a woven cloth. Furthermore, it was personally knitted. At that time, he didn't believe that little sister because she had made such a joke many times. Ye Ye said regretfully," It's a pity that big brother doesn't know how to take a concubine. Big brother told me that he would only be with one person, and little sister won't forget it. It's a pity that little crown prince consort doesn't fall for it. You see, she doesn't care about big brother at all. Maybe she's even pointing at some man to climb into big brother's bed behind his back!" Hahaha…
A string of bell-like laughter drifted away. Ye Mo knew that his sister was happy again. Although she seemed to have some disagreements with the Crown Princess, when Yue Qinghe was unconscious, she would always pull her hair and say that this woman wouldn't die just like that. When Yue Qinghe woke up, she would immediately go to see her and even found the best ginseng in the Peace Palace. Mei Mo told him all this and also said that the relationship between the Princess and the Crown Princess had become harmonious again.
He loved his sister the most. He was relieved to hear that she was happy, but he still did not believe her about the gift. Until Long Qing, who was sent to protect the Crown Princess, ran over excitedly and told him that the Crown Princess was planning to come to the Eastern Palace to ask him what color he liked. His heart tightened, and he heard him regretfully say that it was a pity that Long Yun, that stoic, had told the Crown Princess. Otherwise, the Crown Princess could have come to have a long chat with the Crown Prince. He rolled up the book in his hand and said coldly that he had come over for such a trivial matter and wanted to punish him for neglecting his duty. Before Long Qing left, he muttered," This subordinate saw it with his own eyes. The Crown Princess was weaving that white ball of fur under the lamp…
He believed it, so he smiled.
"Your Highness? Your Highness!"
A voice jolted Ye Ye out of his deep thoughts. Only then did Ye Ye realize that he had been too engrossed in thinking about those things. He couldn't help but blush and cough lightly." Did you find out the identity and background of that woman?"”
Shang He chuckled. It was a little obscene for a little old man with half a hundred hairs to make such an expression. He turned to Chen Xiang and said,"Your nephew has finally put his mind on the love between a man and a woman. That woman must be a wonderful beauty.”
Minister Chen looked at the old man indifferently." What nephew? That's His Highness the Crown Prince. Besides, His Highness has already married the Crown Prince Consort, and she's even the famous Princess Qinghe, a peerless beauty! Have you heard of it?" Prime Minister Chen tried his best to save face for his nephew. Shang He knew that he was a very protective person. No, it was their Chen family. Minister Chen, Special Envoy Chen, and Queen Chen were all very protective people. So, she also found a way out for herself. Stroking her beard, she looked at the roof of the house with a fascinated expression and said,"I heard that the King of Qin married a peerless beauty. She didn't know which one was more beautiful, her appearance or this Crown Princess Consort.”
When Ye Ye heard this, he suddenly felt very guilty. He didn't know why, but he clearly felt that his Crown Princess Consort was beautiful everywhere. But when he heard that this was a donkey or a horse, he felt especially guilty.
Yuan Tan saw the Crown Prince's troubled expression and knew that this was bad. He immediately mocked Shang He,""You old fart, you're doing your job of collecting information, but you don't know that the princess married by the king of Qin died on the night of his wedding. It's better for you to give up your position as soon as possible.”Shang He was so angry that his beard was twitching. It was not that he did not know about it, but it was just that old people had the habit of forgetting things. They would forget important things even faster during important occasions. Yuan Tan clearly knew about this but still pretended not to know. Before Shang He could retort, Yuan Tan pointed at Feng Ren, who was about the same age as Prime Minister Chen, and said,"Chief Feng is in charge of the Hanlin Academy, and he has to spare some time to help you gather information about foreign countries.”
Shang He was about to say that he was collecting information from within the country and not from outside the country when he suddenly remembered that Feng Ren was one of his own. He immediately said proudly,"That's right. If my disciple doesn't help me, his master, do something, why would he help an outsider?”
This time, it was Yuan Tan's turn to be speechless from anger. In the early years, Shang He had obtained a good material like Feng Ren. Now, he had already become a promising talent. He hated that no one could inherit his mantle. In the imperial court of Jin, Shang He was responsible for collecting all kinds of intelligence materials in the country. The first-hand information on rewards and punishments of officials was obtained from Shang clan. The Prime Minister was responsible for assisting the monarch in handling all kinds of affairs in the country. He had great power. His Yuan faction held military power. The Yuan family had many generals. Feng Ren was the chief assistant. He was not responsible for assisting the monarch in handling political affairs, but was responsible for the evaluation and inspection of various officials in the Imperial Academy. The spring examination was held once every three years. Feng Ren was in charge of the overall situation. In other words, he was in charge of selecting the future Minister Chen, the future Yuan Tan, the future Shang He, and the future Feng Ren. This was called the chief assistant. The person who held this position had to be inspected for at least ten years before being given this position. Feng Ren did it. Not only that, he also managed to nurture an organization that spied on intelligence from various countries, the Dark Guards. Shang He had definitely instructed Feng Ren to give her this name! He was clearly not in the same position as him, but he had loved to compare himself with him since he was young. From the teacher he hired to the wife he married to the official position he became in the court, and even because the Yuan Family had trained a secret guard for the Crown Prince, he had created a secret guard.
It was a pity that he was still a step too slow in taking in disciples. However, Yuan Tan had lived for 55 years. He would definitely not lose to that forgetful old pervert, Shang He! He must open his eyes and pick a good disciple for the spring examination next year! A disciple who was definitely not inferior to Feng Ren!
Feng Ren bowed to Ye Mo and said," The strange thing is that the woman has no background. But according to my intelligence, the reason why the King of Qin suddenly changed his temperament and put on his battle robe overnight was because of this woman."”
"Oh? To make a beauty smile?" Shang He asked excitedly.
Yuan Tan was about to mock him when Feng Ren said seriously,""It seems so."
Yuan Tan swallowed the words he wanted to say.
Minister Chen frowned and said," In my opinion, there won't be another war between Qin and Mujiang for a year. When the two countries are in a stalemate, we can't interfere rashly. The most important thing now is Zhao Yan."”
When Yuan Tan heard Zhao Yan's name, he stopped fighting with Shang He and said deeply,""I also believe that the most important task for Jin is to quell the rebellion of Zhao and Yan.”
Ye Ye pondered for a moment, then a cold and mocking expression appeared on his face.""Zhao Yan, Yan Zhao, this affiliated kingdom whose name hasn't even been stabilized yet, has been like its name for the past few years. It's not stable."
"A centipede dies but never stiffens." Minister Chen had a deep meaning.
"Since that's the case, BenGong will definitely do something to it!”Ye Ye looked up, his eyes filled with bloodlust. He looked at the sword hanging on the wall.
"No." Shang He shook his head." Your Highness, you can't be too hasty. You need to wait a little longer. After the coronation ceremony, after this year, when spring comes next year…"
"And then pacify the chaos of Yanzhao!" Yuan Tan glared fiercely at Shang He." The person fighting with His Highness is the general of my Yuan Family. Why are you interrupting?
Ye Ye muttered to himself and looked at the core figures of Jin. Seeing that they all had the same expression on their faces, he slowly nodded." Then we'll do as you say. There are still some things..."
Ye Ye took a few memorials from the table." Take a look at these…"
Yue Qinghe sat in the warm sedan chair with tears in his eyes as he hugged the heater, on the way to Consort Xiang Xian's Mingqiu Palace.
Countless complaints floated in her heart,[Why do I always remember after he left and forget to tell her that the thick wooden stick used to knit the sweater and scarf is different?]
Why had he never thought that there would be a palanquin in the palace? She had to wake up early every morning to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager! He actually didn't know that there was such a high-grade and ordinary thing like a sedan chair that could be used!
Today, when she decided to look for Consort Xian and was distressed by the cold air outside, Su Yan curiously asked,"Why does the Crown Princess not like to use a sedan chair and like to walk?"”
At that time, she had already heard the sound of her heart breaking. How could she have forgotten about this! He then looked at the capable, intelligent, and omnipotent manager Xiao Feng and pointed at him with hatred,"" You definitely did it on purpose!!"
The latter carried a large pile of ginseng and floated past, calmly saying,""I remember that when Princess was in Yue Country, she never liked to sit in a sedan chair.”It was easy to turn the accusation into nothing.
Did she dare not admit that she did not like to sit in a sedan chair in the past? I don't dare! If she denied it, people would know that she was a fake.
With a deep hatred for Xiao Feng and this world, Yue Qinghe began to sit in a warm sedan chair.
Yue Qinghe arrived at Bright Autumn palace. Bright Autumn palace's location was neither remote nor bustling. Bright Autumn palace's layout was neither grand nor small. Everything was in line with the rules.
Yue Qinghe peeked into the palace and saw that there were already some palace maids who bowed to her and hurried to inform her.
Yue Qinghe had just entered the main palace when Consort Xian came to welcome him, looking very surprised.""Why is the crown prince consort here? Isn't her body still not well?”
Yue Qinghe coughed and smiled awkwardly." How can I have such a weak body to stay in the palace all day? It's so boring."”These words were very polite to express that Consort Xian, you don't have to be so worried about my body. I'm actually very well and it's really embarrassing to make you worry. However, Consort Xian's expression was a little strange when she heard this. It was the kind of expression that she didn't want to hear this but had to agree to it. Yue Qinghe felt strange. Was this wrong again? The people in the palace were really strange and complicated. Everyone was different. They had to be prepared in advance to say whatever they saw. Otherwise, they would accidentally offend people. It was really tiring.
