After the crown prince presented the medicine, both King Liang and King Zhao began to move, but King Qi did not move. This made everyone who had been watching curious, wondering what King Qi was planning.

Just when Yuan Ye was also confused, King Qi made a move, but what he did was discuss marriage for his eldest son.

King Qi currently has five children, the eldest son is born by a concubine, who is fourteen years old; the eldest son is born by the princess, who is twelve years old;

King Qi's eldest son is already fourteen, and at this time, the marriage is discussed, and the marriage will be possible in two years.Back then, he also discussed marriage at the age of 14, got married at the age of 15, and had his eldest son at the age of 16.Among the royal family, King Qi's move is not unusual.

Although the eldest son of King Qi is a concubine, he can inherit the throne of the county king in the future, so his county princess's background is naturally to be carefully selected.This matter should be discussed and decided by the Clan Mansion and the King of Qi. The King of Qi will first find out the daughters of the appropriate age in each family, and then hand it over to the Clan Mansion.

King Qi picked and picked, and eliminated the daughters of many unsuitable families. He selected more than ten families.

When Yuan Ye saw the official media coming to his door, he had an ominous premonition. Sure enough, after some chatting, the official media bluntly said: "Qi Wang knows that there is a girl of the right age in Yuan's scholar's family. The eldest prince of King Qi will definitely be able to assist and restrain the eldest prince in the future..."

It was only then that Yuan Ye realized that King Qi felt a crisis. Instead of trying to please the emperor, it was better to tie Yuan Ye with him first, so that he could deal with the prince.The friendship between the monarch and his ministers in the past probably no longer exists, so they can only use marriage to continue their cooperative relationship.

Yuan Ye didn't agree or refuse, but said that this matter still needs to be considered.He couldn't refuse, which would anger King Qi; but he couldn't agree, which would make the emperor doubt him.

"Master, why didn't you agree?" Yuan Lu asked. In her opinion, it was an extremely unwise decision for Yuan Ye not to agree.

"Didn't the aunt say that the one who took a fancy to Xiaoxue was King Qi?" Yuan Jing asked in a low voice.

Yuan Lu was also a little embarrassed, she retorted: "My lord takes a fancy to Xiaoxue, maybe he likes her to be his daughter-in-law!"

It turned out that the corner of his mouth pulled, it was ridiculous.As soon as Yuan Lu left, she said, "Do you remember Tang Minghuang and Yang Guifei?"

Yuan Ye looked at her strangely for a long time, feeling uncomfortable.That's right, if King Qi is really interested in Yuan Mixue, but asks Xiaoxue to marry her for his son, it's hard to guarantee that King Qi won't take his son's wife when he ascends the throne in the future.

"Looks like it's time for Xiaoxue to leave." Yuan Ye sighed, "Have you found out about that woman's identity?"

"Well, I found out that it is Xuan Lanzi, one of the ten elders of the Qingling Sect in the Tianshan Mountains of the Western Regions. She has traveled all over the Central Plains for decades in pursuit of martial arts. This time she settled in the Xianghuo Temple and accidentally fell in love with Xiaoxue. I will take her as a disciple."

"It's only a few days before the three-month period," Yuan Ye said.

These days, he has been torn between whether to send Yuan Mixue away.The child is not around, what should I do if I am wronged?What should I do if there is a danger?But if she doesn't leave, she will only be involved in party struggles, and she will pay the price of losing her freedom and love for the rest of her life.

He looked at Yuan Jing, and he believed that Yuan Jing thought the same way, because she had been imprisoned by the party struggle, unable to love the one she loved, unable to marry the one she wanted to marry, and had no freedom for the rest of her life.Sigh secretly: one is enough.

Yuan Mixue was playing in the garden with the gray rabbit Yuan Jing brought back for her last time.After recuperation, the gray rabbit has recovered to be alive and kicking. Except for the bitten leg that has some mobility problems, the rest can grow normally.

While feeding carrots to the rabbit, she saw her father and second brother Qiqi appearing at the waterside pavilion, looking at her.

"Father, Second Brother." Yuan Mixue called out.

Yuan Ye walked over and looked at her with a smile: "What have you been doing recently?"

"Reading and studying girls." Yuan Mixue replied honestly.

Yuan Ye nodded, took out a cloth quilt for her, and said, "You have grown up so much, and Dad has never given you any gifts. Here are the gifts that Dad has given you over the past 13 years."

"Father, what's the matter?" Yuan Mixue asked in confusion, but Yuan Ye didn't answer her, so she looked at Yuan Jing.

In the end, the two of them left without saying anything, and Yuan Mixue opened the quilt to see that there were some gold and silver ornaments inside, including earrings, bracelets, necklaces and a familiar hairpin.She recognized at a glance that the hairpin was originally given to her by Nan Lian, but it was confiscated by Nan Lian, but now it has been taken back?

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. Yuan Mixue didn't dare to be too happy, so she went to inquire.After inquiring, she found out that King Qi actually proposed marriage for her on behalf of his son, and she immediately panicked: "Second brother said that if I don't want to marry, I won't marry!"

But her mother, Yuan Lu Shi, intentionally or unintentionally advocated that she speak well of Yuan Ye, expressing that she was willing to marry King Qi's eldest son, which made her feel a painful feeling of being abandoned.

"Liar!" Yuan Mixue hid in the bed, thinking of Yuan actually got the promise, she couldn't help cursing.But she is also clear that these matters cannot be decided by the mother, and the words of the matchmaker are not her parents, so how can she make the decision for her?

At this moment, she remembered the three-month agreement. The woman said that she would come to take her away in three months, and now there is not much left for the three-month agreement!Is she going to leave?

The collection of medicinal materials inside and outside the capital to present to the emperor did not stop, but intensified.The prince found that Liang Wang and Zhao Wang followed suit, so he ordered to take the first step to control all the medicinal materials inside and outside the capital.

This action aroused great dissatisfaction among the common people. The crown prince controlled all medicinal materials. Ordinary common people want to see a doctor and get medicine, so where do they go to get medicine?Because of the crown prince's order, the medicinal material dealers from other places are also under strict control. The medicinal material shops that are short of medicinal materials are often unable to purchase large quantities of medicinal materials, resulting in a shortage of medicinal materials.

Yuan unexpectedly took a detour to Fangshi after the value was paid, and bought some things for Yuan Mixue so that she could take good care of herself after she left.Passing by a medicinal herb shop, I saw many people gathered in front of the door. After inquiring, I found out that this medicinal herb shop was refused to give too many medicinal materials, so people came to make trouble.

"You have medicinal herbs here, why don't you give them to others?" A sturdy-looking middle-aged man supported a sick young man, glaring at the shopkeeper of the medicinal herb shop.

The shopkeeper looked embarrassed: "The government ordered that each person is limited to grab so many medicines, and your needs have exceeded the government's regulations. Why don't you go to another medicine shop and grab some..."

"Your medicine store doesn't sell medicine, so what are you doing here?" The middle-aged man immediately let go of the young man, picked up a bench and smashed the medicine cabinet in the medicine store.

Countless medicinal materials were smashed and mixed together, the shopkeeper couldn't stop him, so he could only cry out in pain: "Stop, if you make such a fuss, other people won't be able to catch any medicine! stop……"

Yuan Jing was still thinking about this matter, the shopkeeper saw Yuan Jing who was still wearing an official uniform, and hurriedly said: "My lord, my lord, please do justice for grassroots people!"

The middle-aged man stopped, and all eyes turned to Yuan Jing.

I saw that Yuan was young and beautiful. Although I don't know what grade of official uniform she is wearing, but from her age, it can be seen that the official position is not high.But even a person with a low official position is still an official in front of ordinary people like them!

Seeing an official appearing, the middle-aged man felt a little guilty and looked straight at Yuan Jing.It turned out that since she was pushed out, she only asked a few questions, fearing that it would be inappropriate, so she asked the shopkeeper: "You said the government ordered that each person is limited to arrest so many medicines. Which government office issued the order? Have documents?"

"That's right!" The middle-aged man saw that Yuan might be on his side, and immediately asked the shopkeeper.

"This, without documents, is an order from the yamen."

"Without documents, where do you get the evidence to execute?"

"The magistrate sent someone to invite us over, and he told us himself, how can this be false? Moreover, the magistrate's order, we and the people in the market, how can we object." The shopkeeper was very wronged.

"But the magistrate of the capital?"

The shopkeeper knew that he had confessed to the magistrate, and he was afraid that he would not escape bad luck, but he had no other choice. If he didn't close the medicine shop, there would be many people making trouble like this.But without the government's order, how can he close the door? It's better to fight for a glimmer of hope.

"There's no evidence for what you say. Since you don't have documents, you can make a living according to the usual rules." Yuan Jing pondered for a moment and said.

The shopkeeper had a look of embarrassment on his face: "But my lord, I wonder where my lord is on duty?" If he was just a powerless official, then he would have offended the powerful magistrate by listening to her, and the gain would outweigh the loss!

"Hanlin Academy, it turns out."

When the many onlookers heard this, they were all shocked, who was it? Maybe some of them had never heard of it, but the reputation of the Imperial Academy was great, not to mention some people knew that the original was Tanhua's background, and they were grateful to him. The emperor's love was promoted to be a servant of the Imperial Academy.Most importantly, she is Yuan Ye's second son!

The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly followed Yuan Jing's orders, and the crowd of onlookers slowly dispersed.

It turns out that she is not the censor after all, she has no right to impeach the magistrate, and she needs to find out whether there is clear evidence that the prince ordered the magistrate to do this, and whether there is someone messing up the water behind it.

In the end, she didn't investigate thoroughly, and something happened.

That day after she paid off, she went to the street for a walk, and found that the medicinal materials inside and outside the capital were still in short supply, and many unscrupulous medicinal materials dealers raised the prices of medicinal materials, and speculatively made a lot of money.

While walking, suddenly, a woman with a child rushed in front of Yuan Jing, and Mai Ran nimbly stood in front of Yuan Jing to protect Yuan Jing.Yuan was stunned for a moment by this sudden incident, only to see the woman crying bitterly: "Master Yuan, please show mercy and let my husband go..."

When the woman cried, the child also cried.

The people around them pointed and pointed at them, as if they had done something unconscionable.Yuan actually pushed Mai Ran away and asked, "Who is your husband?"

"The treasurer of Qiaochun Hall, Yue Xianliang."

"do not know."

The woman started to cry again, she approached Yuan Jing, and cried: "Master Yuan, please let my husband go, here, I have all the wealth here, I will give it to you, I can't live without my husband, and neither can my children live without a father." ..."

It turned out that she could even hear the people around her scolding her. She pinched the center of her eyebrows and said, "Did you admit the wrong person? I didn't arrest anyone!"

"Master." Mai Ran said, but there was no more words.

"My lord, the day before yesterday you went to the bridge spring hall in person, and you ordered my husband to continue to make a living."

Yuan actually remembered, it turned out to be the shopkeeper of that medicinal herb shop.She said again: "Why do you say I arrested him? I am a student in the Imperial Academy, but I have no right to arrest people."

The woman sobbed: "But he was arrested by the government only after he obeyed your orders."

Yuan was speechless for a while, and did not talk nonsense to her, and said: "Who arrested him and why?"

"It's the government office. They said that some people had problems with Qiao Chuntang's medicine, so they suspect that my husband overdosed and caused people to be poisoned."

"Since there is a problem with Qiao Chuntang's dispensing, what does it have to do with me?"

The woman immediately wanted to talk about the truth again, Mai Ran blocked her again, she pleaded: "My lord, my husband was wronged, please find out the truth..."

"You should go to the yamen to beat the drums to complain, not come to the official." Yuan Jing shook her head, she shouldn't meddle in these nosy matters.

It turned out that within two steps, the woman and the child rushed forward at the same time, Mai Ran blocked the child but failed to block the woman.The woman grabbed Yuan Jing's official uniform and begged desperately.

At this moment, a solemn murderous aura rushed over.
