The Empire and the Kingdom
Chapter 10
"It is difficult to build a river embankment, but it is easy to make mistakes. Brother Huang feels sorry for the country's money. It is piled up under the earth and rocks. It is hard to see how much money has been piled up. But the money given by the Ministry of Households is finite, and it must not be enough. If you can still repair the embankment, it will be really difficult." Feng Jingsu ignored the prince's suspicion and said to himself.
The crown prince didn't ask any questions, just drank tea and listened quietly. Seeing that she stopped talking, he opened his mouth, "Yun Yi, you went to Feiyejin to study for ten years, and you must have learned some skills when you came back. I don't know what advice you have?"
Feng Jingsu smiled, "Since it takes a lot of money and effort to build a stable river embankment, and as long as there is no accident, the merits will not be seen, why doesn't the emperor let it happen earlier?"
One word is enough for a wise man.If there is an accident in the embankment during the flood season, it will be the casualties of countless people. However, if an accident occurs during the construction of the embankment, then the prince can justifiably reinforce the embankment with great fanfare, so that as long as the embankment can withstand the test of the flood season, the civil servants will be allowed to As mentioned in the letter, this matter is a credit.
"Yun Yi, why did you help me?" The prince had already made up his mind, but he began to doubt Feng Jingsu's intentions.
"Brother Huang is the crown prince. If I don't help you, who else can I help?" Feng Jingsu seemed to be flattering her, but her expression and tone were not flattering at all.
Instead, the prince felt a sense of crisis. Feng Jingsu's words seemed to be threatening. She could help herself, and of course she could help the second prince.
The prince smiled immediately and said: "You are right. You and my brother and sister have not been close for many years. Now that you have returned to the palace, if you have anything to do in the future, you can come to my brother. I will definitely help you."
"Thank you, Brother Huang." Feng Jingsu smiled as if the river water had thawed, and the condensed and beautiful face on her face suddenly became vivid.
The prince was taken aback for a moment, thinking that such a beautiful woman would not know which man would take advantage of her in the future.
The first day of August is a good day to go to the temple to pray for blessings.On Kaiyun Peak to the east of the capital, there is a nunnery called Cixin Nunnery located halfway up the mountain.Officials and female relatives in the capital will come here to offer incense and pray for blessings.
Feng Jingsu brought Xiaozhu and Xiaoduo to join in the fun today.
"Are you sure all the female family members of the official family will come to offer incense today?" Feng Jingsu was sitting in an ordinary carriage, which was blocked on the mountain road at this time.
Xiaozhu nodded, "I have inquired about it. On the first day of each month, the Cixin Nunnery is closed to the public, and it is specially reserved for the female family members of the official family to offer incense."
Looking at the situation of the traffic jam now, what Xiaozhu said should not be a lie, but such a traffic jam is also troublesome. "You two wait slowly, and you will find me in the Cixin Nunnery later." After explaining, Feng Jingsu got out of the carriage, walked into the woods beside the road, and then disappeared.
Xiaozhu and Xiaoduo looked at each other in horror, "What if the princess is in danger?" Xiaoduo asked.
Xiaozhu stretched her neck and looked again and again, "Princess probably went up the mountain by herself."
Ignoring the two little maids who were worrying for nothing, Feng Jingsu quickly went up to the middle of the mountain.Because she was using lightness skills all the way, she was afraid of being seen and causing unnecessary trouble, so she walked on cliffs and cliffs, which was actually faster than walking on mountain roads.
When her feet landed in front of the gate of Cixin Nunnery, a family of female relatives just entered in front of her, she didn't care who it was, and followed in.The nun of Cixin nunnery saw her gorgeously dressed, thought she was with the front, and helped guide the way.
The female relatives in front entered the main hall to offer incense, and Feng Jingsu took advantage of the opportunity to turn into the apse. It was very quiet here, only sandalwood was wafting.
She waited for a while, guessing that the female relatives in front should have offered incense, and then she came out of the apse.I saw a woman in white walking towards the corridor of the apse. Seeing her coming out, the woman in white was stunned for a moment, and then she said, "I have seen Princess Yunyi."
Feng Jingsu quickly went through every face she saw on the day of the palace banquet in her mind, "It turned out to be Miss Feng." She also returned a peer gift.
Feng Qianzi stood up straight, "I thought my family was the first batch of pilgrims, but I didn't expect the princess to be earlier."
Feng Jingsu knew that Feng Qianzi was suspicious, the only daughter of the Feng family was a powerful person.Guan Xuejing once mentioned it.
"I have an appointment with someone." Feng Jing and Su talked nonsense.
"Could it be Miss Xue San?" Feng Jingsu was startled by Feng Qianzi's instant answer.
Feng Jingsu was indeed meeting Xue Ai, but she and Xue Ai had no agreement in advance, and she decided to leave the palace today on a whim yesterday.So how did this young lady of the Feng family know?Is it just guesswork?
"Why did Miss Feng say that?" Feng Jingsu was a little confused about Feng Qianzi, logically speaking, with Feng Qianzi's shrewdness, even if she saw it, she shouldn't have said it so easily.
Feng Qianzi was obviously very familiar with this place, she led Feng Jingsu out from the corner door in the backyard, outside was a large vegetable field in Cixin Nunnery, all kinds of vegetables were ripe at this time, compared with the well-manicured gardens in the capital, there were more Rustic and fun.
"Miss Xue San hasn't been out for many years, even if she becomes the laughing stock of the capital, she doesn't care at all. Recently, after the palace banquet, she actively participated in the banquets held by various families in the capital, so the maid guessed that she probably encountered something at the banquet. Man, what did you say that enlightened her." Feng Qianzi stretched out her hand to gather her hair that was blown by the wind, "The people who attended the palace banquet that day were all Miss Xue San had met a long time ago, the only difference is Princess." Her gaze was clear and light, and even the color of her pupils seemed a little lighter than that of ordinary people.
"Is she the laughing stock of the capital?" Feng Jingsu's focus began to deviate.
Without denying it, Feng Qianzi already knew the answer she wanted. "Miss Xue San is not favored at home. This is a fact that everyone has known for a long time. In the early years, every time she came out to attend a banquet, there would be more or less mistakes. It was probably because she was young. It came out. But to say something that should not be said, it is also because of her reputation that the prince did not marry her immediately after the marriage proposal." The last sentence, everyone will find it harsh.But Feng Qianzi spoke very seriously, and she didn't mean to gloat.
Feng Jingsu had a feeling that Feng Qianzi was deliberately explaining something about Xue Ai to her, and she was also deliberately letting her know that she had seen through everything.
"What is Miss Feng suspicious of?"
Feng Qianzi picked a leaf casually and played with it in her hands, "Miss Xue San is a clever girl, and everyone in the capital city has been deceived by her, but I think the princess will not be deceived."
Feng Jingsu stopped talking, Feng Qianzi's vision was too sharp, she felt like she was being seen through.
"Princess, my daughter has never said these words to others today. For so many years, although my daughter and Miss Xue San are not close, they always meet several times a year. Her forbearance is admired by my daughter, so I hope her All hard work pays off." Feng Qianzi smiled, "I forgot to mention, I heard that Miss Xue San was banned by Mrs. Xue in the mansion recently because she frequently attended banquets. So, the princess may have waited in vain today."
Feng Jingsu admired Feng Qianzi very much. After finishing what she wanted to say now, she finally explained the reason why Xue Ai didn't come. Was it because she was afraid that she would run away when she heard that Xue Ai didn't come?Anyway, Feng Qianzi's words also told Feng Jingsu that she would not be an enemy, but a friend.
"Thank you, Miss Feng, for letting me know." Feng Jingsu saw two beautiful wild roses blooming on the nearby cliff, and she flew to pick one and gave it to Feng Qianzi.
Feng Qianzi raised her eyebrows, "The princess is very skilled, but this flower..."
"I gave this flower for a friend named Guan, Miss Feng, please don't refuse." Feng Jingsu put the flower in Feng Qianzi's hand, turned and went down the mountain.
Feng Qianzi looked down at the rose flower in her hand, gritted her teeth and said, "The mouth surnamed Guan really deserves to be punched!"
Xiaozhu and Xiaoduo were still stuck in the road, and suddenly a figure flashed, Feng Jingsu was already sitting in the carriage, "When the carriage can move in a while, you can tell the driver to turn around and go back to the palace, don't wait for me."
Just as Xiaozhu Xiaoduo was about to ask a question, a figure flashed, and Feng Jingsu disappeared again.
Xiaoduo shivered, "Sister, I'm afraid."
At this time, the Xue family was quiet.Today, Mrs. Pan, Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Jiang took four young ladies to go out to offer incense. Mr. Xue will not be at home at this time, so Xue Ai is the only master in the house.She doesn't run around, just reads and writes in her own room, and occasionally sets up a chess board to play chess with herself.
"Isn't it boring to play chess alone?" As soon as the voice came out, Xue Ai and Meng An looked up, and saw Feng Jingsu pushing the door and walking in.
"Yun..." Meng An was about to speak, but Xue Ai pulled her away, and all the rest of the words stuck in her throat, causing her to cough.
"You go out and cough, I have something to talk to your lady." Feng Jingsu waved her hand, Meng An glanced at Xue Ai, saw her nodding, and hurriedly backed out.
Where is Xue Ai's big bright eyes dull?Without blinking, she looked at Feng Jingsu who was sitting opposite her.
"Call someone."
Xue Ai's cheeks turned red again, "Sister Su."
Feng Jingsu picked up a piece of glutinous rice cake with satisfaction, before Xue Ai could stop it, Feng Jingsu had already taken a bite.
"So tough!" Feng Jingsu frowned.Even if she didn't pay attention to food when she was in Feiyejin Academy, the glutinous rice cake is not so hard.
Xue Ai was helpless, poured a cup of tea and handed it over, "Sister Su, if you are hungry, I will ask Mengan to go to the kitchen to see, you should not eat these things."
Feng Jingsu looked at the glutinous rice cake in her hand, "Yesterday?"
"Probably." Xue Ai didn't care much.
"Even the servants neglect you so much?" This is a bit beyond Feng Jingsu's cognition.
Xue Ai actually smiled, "It's okay, I don't care."
The author has something to say: Seeing the seriousness of the epidemic and the New Year's Eve, everyone must protect themselves! [Clasps together] May the river be clean, the sea will be peaceful, the country will be peaceful and the people will be safe!
