His Majesty Meow Raises Fish [Rebirth]

Because of Zhuang Jinshi's confession, more and more people were involved in the case.

The five princes who were ordered to investigate did not sleep for this reason, and the unannounced visits became clear investigations, and made great contributions to the corruption case.

Except for the evidence that the second prince colluded with local officials has been specious and unclear, all other people involved in the case have been brought to justice.

In the 23rd year of Yuanzhang's corruption case, countless officials from the central government and local officials lost their official positions and lives, which became an unavoidable case in the history of Qingzhou.

"I found a few so-called secret letters, but none of them were the seal of the emperor's brother. Secondly, the handwriting cannot be verified, and there is no serious evidence at all."

Qi Jing talked about the progress of the matter to Shaoxuan, but there was no joy in her heart to relax.

Shaoxuan understood what he was worried about.

The so-called three people make a tiger, and one mouth makes money, even if there is no evidence, but Zhuang Jinshi insists that his crime was ordered by the second prince, which will definitely leave a bad impression in the emperor's heart.

Fortunately, when Qi Jing escorted Xiangrui back to Beijing, he had conflicts with Zhuang Jinshi because he saved Luo Qin and others. The emperor also knew about this, so now he obviously believes in his second prince more, so he just I just told him to stop and meditate, not to question him.

Yu Zhaoyi asked Qi Jing not to go to Prince Heng's mansion recently, so as not to provoke His Majesty's wrath, but Qi Jing still took Shi Yi to see the second emperor brother.

Not seeing each other for a few days, Qi Heng haggarded a lot. Seeing Lao Qi bringing Xiao Eleven over, he disapproved: "It's not right for you to come here at this moment."

Qi Jing smiled and said: "When Eleventh and I greeted the imperial grandmother in the palace today, we already mentioned that we would come here, but the imperial grandmother didn't say anything, what's wrong."

The weather is gradually getting warmer, and Shi Shi is not a baby, so I have to go to the palace to pay my respects.

The empress dowager was getting old, she was happy to see the youngest grandson anyway, but when she heard the seventh prince said that she was going to Prince Heng's mansion, her expression was normal.

Although the Empress Dowager ignores the affairs of the court, the Central Palace has been vacant for many years, the Emperor's Harem is still under the Empress Dowager's control, and their mother and son have always been close and harmonious. If His Majesty has anything to do, he will first forgive the Empress Dowager.

If she did not express any objection, to a certain extent, it represented the emperor's attitude, so Qi Jing's coming to Prince Heng's Mansion was not impulsive, but prepared.

Hearing what he said, the anxiety on Qi Heng's face really eased a little, he knew that Lao Qi was telling him in disguise what was going on in the palace.

Qi Jing continued: "Father asked the emperor to spend more time with the emperor's wife. He didn't say that we couldn't come to the palace to disturb him. He only wanted to eat more cakes from the emperor's wife on the eleventh day. The emperor would not be so stingy, so he didn't ask us to come. Bar."

Zhuang Jinshi's confession involved the royal family, His Majesty did not believe it at all, but out of caution, he asked Qi Heng to postpone the errand in hand.

But to the outside world, what they said was to ask Prince Heng to accompany the concubine to conceive more, so that the first child could be born smoothly.

It's not that there are no rumors outside, if no one comes to the door at this time, it will spread rumors even more.

The Seventh Prince frankly took the Eleventh Prince to see his brother and his sister-in-law, justifying Prince Heng's name.

Qi Heng was grateful for his act of giving charcoal in a timely manner, and when he heard him making a joke of himself, his heart relaxed a lot, and he pretended to be serious and replied: "Your sister-in-law finally got some pastry recipes at the bottom of the box, and I let you You lied to borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and you still have the nerve to say eleven."

Qi Jing brought the pastry recipe obtained by Princess Heng to Ci'an Palace in the past few days, insisting that the chef in her own mansion could not make it according to the recipe, so she begged the imperial grandmother to let the imperial chef make it.

The empress dowager knew that he would go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing, but because she loved him, and there was a little eleven star waiting beside her, she still fulfilled his wish and ordered the imperial dining room to make it according to the prescription. eat.

After Qi Jing ate the cake, he casually mentioned the source of the recipe, so that the Empress Dowager would remember the pregnant Princess Heng.

At this time, it was difficult for a woman to conceive and give birth, not to mention that Du Shi was the first child.

The empress dowager felt sorry for her hard pregnancy, and knew that Prince Heng was grounded. As a princess, she must also be terrified, so she used the name of cold food to give cold food porridge, cold food noodles, cold food syrup, green rice and glutinous rice to the princes, etc. It is said that Princess Heng is pregnant, so it is an extra one.

In the past, this act was already considered an extra grace, but at this moment, the significance is even more extraordinary.

For others, this is at least a signal, a signal that Prince Heng's Mansion has not fallen out of favor.

Because of this, Prince Heng's pressure dropped sharply, and he also knew the various efforts that Lao Qi had put in. At this moment, he deliberately mentioned it as a joke, to show that there are some things that he doesn't say, but he must keep in mind.

Qi Jing didn't do these things to make him appreciate his achievements, so he didn't care whether he remembered or not.

Little Eleven seemed to have something of his own to listen to, and he stretched his neck and echoed twice: "It's not Eleven, Eleven only eats two yuan!"

Qi Jing patted his little butt to comfort him, while Qi Heng smiled and touched the top of the child's head: "It will be your birthday soon, and we will be one year older on Eleventh."

When Su Baolin died and the newborn little prince was left unattended, at first Qi Heng had sympathy for Eleven.

But he also wondered why Lao Qi took matters into his own hands - after all, raising a younger brother is much more troublesome than raising a son.

But looking at Qi Jing's style of acting and dealing with the world, the second prince felt that this was indeed something he might do.

——If he wasn't Ah Jing, how could he be so affectionate and righteous, lending a helping hand when others are in distress?

Seeing Eleven nestled in Lao Qi's arms, seriously explaining such a trivial matter to Lao Qi that he didn't eat much, Lao Qi had a smirk on his face, oh oh, it seemed perfunctory, but in fact he was extremely patient, Qi Heng suddenly remembered The scene of their childhood.

At that time, his mother and concubine were gone, and he lived in Wensi Hall, under the care of his aunt Yu Zhaoyi.

The fifth and sixth sons were even younger, and they both grew up beside their mother. They hadn't lived in the East Sixth House yet, and the brothers only met each other when they paid their respects to the elders, which wasn't considered close.

It's been a long time, and Qi Heng can't remember whether when he saw the fifth and sixth children when he was young, he felt the same love and affection as he did when he saw Xiao Eleven now.

He only vaguely remembered that someone had repeatedly said in his ears that the fifth and sixth princes were not from the same mother as him, and they would never be able to agree with him, and they would even compete with him in the future, so be careful.

Although Yu Zhaoyi later gave birth to a son, his body was weak, and he could no longer take care of him wholeheartedly, so his father gave him enlightenment himself, and he moved to Dongliu, but some childhood memories will never be erased.

Thinking of Lao Wu's sleepless nights and hard work in order to find out the evidence that he colluded with local officials, and the exciting words that the third princess said to Xuan'er in Ci'an Palace during the Cold Food Festival, Qi Heng felt a warm feeling in his heart just now. , It gradually became colder.

——If there is a chance, he must ask his good brothers and sisters to see what is the respect of an elder brother and the respect of a prince!

Although Qi Jing was coaxing Xiao Shiyi, he had been carefully observing the state of the second emperor brother. Seeing his gloomy eyes, he couldn't help sighing in his heart: Even if the emperor brother is dignified and kind, I'm afraid it will hurt his heart after experiencing this setback. cold heart...

Qi Jing has some obsessions in her heart when she lives again. For example, finding the real culprit who poisoned her in her previous life is one of them.

He thought, if he finds the real culprit, he should also choose to repay him twice and let the other party pay for his life, so he has no position to persuade the second brother.

They were born in the royal family, so they have to accept this fate, or find a way to change this fate.

Qi Jing's rescuing the eleventh brother and helping the second emperor's brother is to change the fate of brothers fighting each other, but if he wants to repay the hatred with virtue and get close to the fifth and sixth brothers, then it is absolutely impossible.

After all, before definite evidence was obtained, they were the ones who benefited the most from the deaths of the Second Prince and the Seventh Prince in their previous lives, and they were naturally the ones who were most suspected.

The two brothers had their own concerns, and even Xiao Shiyi noticed something, grabbed Qi Jing's skirt, and played with the tassels on his purse pretending to be fine.

At this time, Mrs. Du entered the house with the help of the maid, and Qi Jing and Shi Yi called out to the emperor's wife together.

Du Xuan'er knew that Shi Shi was also in the room, so Prince Heng and the Seventh Prince would definitely not say anything about the court, so she walked in naturally.

Pregnant women are easy to be sentimental, not to mention that Prince Heng encountered such a dangerous incident, so she had trouble sleeping and eating a few days ago, her pregnancy was not bad, but she immediately became unwell.

Fortunately, the Seventh Prince was out there, so he invited the Empress Dowager and gave her face, so Du Shi was finally able to raise her back.

Seeing Qi Jing and the little prince again at this moment, Du's heart was naturally very kind, and he gently touched Xiao Shiyi's chubby hand, and said softly: "The peonies in the yard are blooming, and I will take the eleventh prince down to have a look?"

When she said this, she was not only asking Qi Heng, but also asking for Qi Jing's opinion.

Qi Heng looked at Qi Jing and saw that he had no objection, so he said: "Then go and have a look, there are a few plants brought by your sister-in-law's dowry, which are rare to see outside."

Although Huang's sister-in-law is very gentle, in an unfamiliar environment, Xiao Shi still likes to cling to his seventh brother. When he heard that he was going to leave the house, there was a trace of timidity in his little eyes.

Qi Jing did have something to say to the second emperor brother, so he squeezed his chubby hand and said comfortingly: "Didn't you eat a cup of peony soup yesterday and still like it? Go and see if you eat it up." What he looked like before was a complete thought."

Hearing this, Xiaoshi felt that what his brother said was weird, but it seemed to make sense after all, so he nodded obediently.

Qi Jing asked Chongjiu to hold him, and asked Du Shi to take the child away, but until they left the house, he still looked out the door, which showed that Xiaoshi was not the only one who was reluctant to part.

——If you really want to follow what Lao Qi said, you have to get to know the ingredients before eating, then they not only have to look at cabbage and radishes every day, but also have to look at the ears of rice growing in the fields and the pigs and sheep raised in the pen. Wouldn't it be very busy...

Seeing that Lao Qi always had a way with Xiao Shiyi, Qi Heng couldn't help but smile, but he quickly thought about the business and covered up his smile again.

"Old Seven, nearly half of the officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs have been involved this time. The trouble that Brother Dahuang encountered this time may be even greater than what I have encountered."

……

After coming out of Prince Heng's mansion with the drowsy little Eleven in his arms, Qi Jing looked at the sky.

Although it was still daylight at the moment, the sky seemed dim because of some dark clouds in the sky.

The rainy season is about to enter, and this kind of weather will gradually become normal.

Seeing that His Highness looked at the sky solemnly, Chong Jiu didn't know whether he had just said something to Prince Heng or was worried about the weather, so he could only say cautiously: "Don't worry, Your Highness, the rain won't fall for a while. "

Qi Jing glanced at Xiao Shiyi, who was dozing off and still clutching the lapel of his shirt, and nodded slightly.

——If it really rains, it will be troublesome...
