The Way of the Consort

The last time Ji Zhao injured his arm, he cried when he saw him, and he cried so much that he was wronged, but today he didn't say "brother". Is this normal?

In the slightly swaying carriage, His Royal Highness frowned.

However, he didn't think about the aspect of himself that had been exposed at all. After thinking about it, there was still only one reason.

When Ji Zhao was "ill", he had thought of asking Ji Zhao to go to the mountain to recuperate, because it was Ji Zhao's favorite place, but he was afraid that he would be tired on the way, and it would be bad for his health. In this way, he sent Cheng Shen to Ji's Mansion after dawn, brought Royal Physician Luo with him, and asked Cheng Shen to send them to the mountain.

Ji Zhao just didn't want to stay in the city, so it would be good if he could stay away from the palace.

He told Yin Ming and the others to pack up their things and leave immediately, but Princess Fuchen did not go with him.Ji Zhao stayed in the carriage the whole time on the grounds that he was sick, and did not let outsiders watch, including Cheng Shen and other people from the palace. As for Doctor Luo, he refused to enter the carriage for the same reason, regardless of Cheng How to say deep.

After arriving on the mountain, at the gate of Zhuangzi, Ji Zhao issued an order to expel the guests. Cheng Shen could not say anything, and he did not dare to disobey the wishes of the son-in-law.

Originally, he wanted to have a few words with his son-in-law, and he also wanted to have a few words with Du Bo and the others, but this time, he was chased away after he failed to do anything.

Back in the palace, His Highness the Crown Prince's face was darkened upon hearing what he said, and Cheng Shen was also very helpless.

Zong Zhen originally wanted to pick a day to go to the mountain, but it was a busy time recently, Qin Fa's health has recovered, and he has officially assumed office.Qin Fa was very conscious, knowing that he was on the prince's side, he wrote to him in private regarding matters related to Zizhou, and the two exchanged a lot of things.

Yu Qin had recovered from a serious illness and wept bitterly in front of Renzong to repent. Renzong, who was always soft-hearted, sighed and told him to continue to court, and he and Wen Zhichang still stood at the forefront, one on the left and one on the right.It's just that these two people used to be at odds with each other, but now they are no longer at peace, they have broken up completely, and they regard each other as sworn enemies.

The supporters of the two of them have always been numerous, and recently there has been a situation where the two factions in the DPRK and China are fighting against each other.

Renzong looked upset, and discussed the matter with Zongzhen, thinking about whether to persuade him to make peace.Zong Zhen felt that this was a good thing, and the louder the tearing, the better. He suggested that his father sit on the sidelines and take the opportunity to observe which officials are still working hard these days.

At the same time, Renzong adopted Zongzhen's opinion and indeed began to use Zongyu, which also aroused a lot of discussion in the city.

Zong Zhen asked Chen Keye to keep an eye on Prince Zheng's Mansion to see if the masked man would come to find Zong Mi, but there was no movement, but He Qiniang had another disturbance.

Zongzhen didn't know whether He Qiniang was on purpose or not, Wen Guiren actually had a crush on He Qiniang, since Qin Fa's assassination last time, Wen Guiren felt more and more powerful, and stepped down the Yu family father and son, Isn't it awesome?

Now that he is walking in the city, his nostrils are almost turned upside down.

Wen Zhichang is full of power and intrigue, and he gives little care to his children. He only has such a direct son, and his wife is reluctant to scold him.

Every day he brought his guards to He Qiniang's shop to mess around, and once he even brought someone into the backyard, scaring the little Mo'er who lived in the backyard to scream and make a mess.

He Qiniang wished to draw his sword to kill him immediately, but she still remembered her brother's advice, once her hand was already in her sleeve, to hold back.That night, when her brother came to visit her, He Qiniang said viciously: "Do you really want me to be insulted by this scum?! What is he! Back then, Wen Zhichang didn't even have the right to visit my house! He couldn't even enter the door! "

Her brother was silent for a moment, then said coolly, "Man, I will kill you for you."

"When will you kill?"

"Wait a little longer..."

"Wait?! When I saw his pig-headed face, I felt disgusted! Can the emperor tolerate such a family?" She sneered, "Hmph, no wonder they came up with this idea! In my opinion, Sooner or later, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty will be thrown into chaos! If the court is in chaos, the country will not be far away! It will not take decades!"

When Zongzhen heard these words, he was not angry with He Qiniang's "subjugation of the country". He thought about it, and suddenly began to understand the purpose of the Liangguo faction's secret work.

If it starts with the officials of the court and disrupts various families, such as the Wen and Yu families, and stirs up disputes between Zheng Wangfu and the palace, causing each family to suspect each other, there seems to be no difference in a short period of time, but what about in the long run?Officials, everyone only thinks about fighting for power and profit, how many people still think about benefiting the world and the people?

The embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in an ant's nest, and the decline was accumulated slowly. There were not many powerful officials in Xiguo. If these officials were suspicious and continued to fight for a long time, there would always be a day when the embankment collapsed.

At that time, the Liang country's armed forces must have almost recovered, what about them?When cultivating life and rest in other countries, he patronizes internal struggles.

Previously, the skinny horse named Xiao Mo'er approached Ji Chongyuan and provoked his relationship with Ji Zhao. This must be the reason. It also wanted to disturb the relationship between Ji's family, and Ji Zhao happened to be the son-in-law.

Zong Zhen rubbed his chin, and had to say that although Liang Guo's trick seemed difficult, as long as the line was set long, long, and in the right place, he could always catch big fish.

These two times, when the siblings spoke, they didn't mention Zong Zhen at all, so they must have never paid attention to him.

Zong Zhen thinks this is a good thing, because he also wants to kick out all the people he doesn't need through the infighting between Wen and Yu. It seems that Liang Guo is helping him this time.

Infighting is a good idea, it all depends on how to use it and when to stop it.

The words of the brothers and sisters also gave him a warning.

Zong Zhen was out of his mind, and when he finally came back to his senses, he realized that he was kneeling on the ground, Chen Keye and the others were all trembling, and he laughed: "What? Would I blame it for someone else saying "subjugate the country" you? He laughed again, and said leisurely, "Actually, those two people are right. If these people are allowed to stir up troubles, the country will not be far away." "

Zong Zhen asked Chen Keye to continue to stare at He Qiniang's place, and sure enough, within a few days, something happened again.

Ji Chongyuan didn't know where he heard that there was a woman who looked very similar to Xiao Mo'er at He Qiniang's place, and she immediately brought a few guards there secretly. On the day he went, Wen Guiren happened to come to the door, and he wanted to break into the backyard. .

Ji Chongyuan looked down on such people the most, especially the person Wen Guiren bullied might be Xiao Mo'er, even though he was six or seven years younger than Wen Guiren, he was even more arrogant than Wen Guiren.

Neither of them is a master who is afraid of right and wrong. After a few words of agitation, the two sides started fighting in Shuangquan Lane. Later, the two masters also scuffled together. Ji Chongyuan was tall and strong, and he was half taller than last year. Head, systematically learning martial arts at home every day, Wen Guiren is a complete dude, a flamboyant idiot, how can he beat Ji Chongyuan?He was punched several times by Ji Chongyuan, crying for his father and mother, and then the matter got into trouble in the palace again.

Renzong had a headache, so he asked Zongyu to deal with the matter, and also gave him exercises.

Later, both of them were fined to contemplate behind closed doors, Wen Guiren was sent out of the city by their family to contemplate behind closed doors, and Ji Chongyuan was beaten twenty times by his mother, vowing never to peek at the little lady again.

The city was full of excitement, but Ji Zhao lived peacefully on the mountain.

He felt that it would be great if he could live on the mountain all the time and never go down the mountain.

Maybe it's a kind of evasive psychology. These days, without having to face all the things related to the prince and Huizhou merchants, his heart finally calmed down again.Coke and the other five were also brought by him, and they were still locked in the back room in his yard, and asked for food to be delivered every day. Yin Ming asked him if he wanted to interrogate himself.

He didn't want to interrogate at all, his head started to hurt thinking about it, he would rather escape from reality like this.

The mountains are always cooler than the mountains, and in the city below the mountains, the lotus this summer has already died. In the lotus ponds inside and outside the village on the mountain, the flowers are still blooming. He doesn’t have the slightest intention to look at them. He just lies on the rocking chair as usual. , lying on the porch, dangling and staring at the sky in a daze, birds often fly by, and he doesn't read books anymore, it's not bad to just relax and look at the sky like this.

Chen Xing was very worried when he saw it, and said to Yin Ming in private: "What should I do? Our husband used to like to have fun, but now he is in the mountains, the scenery is so beautiful, and he is not interested at all."

Yin Ming was also worried: "You have nothing to do, what can I do..."

Chen Xing was so angry that he almost wanted to tear his ears, so he gave him a hard look, and turned around to persuade Ji Zhao. Ji Zhao was not sick at all, this was something only the three of them knew, and even Wei's mother didn't tell it.When he came to the mountain this time, he didn't bring Mother Wei with him, because he was afraid that she would be worried, so he left her to look after the house in the mansion.

"Look, you've been lying here looking at the sky for more than half a month, you should go out and have a look at the scenery anyway, the lotus outside our Zhuangzi is in full bloom! As the saying goes, the lotus leaves are endlessly green. !"

Ji Zhao didn't want to look at it at all, but seeing his worried face, he knew that the two of them were so worried that they bit their ears again just now.

He raised his hands and said, "Then go and have a look."

"Okay, okay!" Chen Xing couldn't help laughing.

While changing clothes, another small incident happened. When packing the box, someone put in a few pieces of snow-blue clothes, which were hidden by Dust Star. Now he opened the box to look for things, and Ji Zhao spotted him at a glance. Immediately his face turned black.

Chen Xing was so frightened that he quickly closed the lid again, and whispered: "They were careless..."

Ji Zhao took a deep breath. That day, the man gave him the material, and the embroiderer in the mansion immediately helped him make clothes. He made several suits. At that time, he asked the embroiderer to help him make several suits, which were exactly the same as his. ... Xiuniang didn't know the size of the man, but he estimated it because he had hugged the man before.

Thinking about it now, it's really a joke.

Ji Zhao withdrew his gaze, turned around and said calmly, "Don't let me see them again."

"Okay, okay!" Chen Xing rolled up the clothes and stuffed them deep into the cage.

Ji Zhao wore a gown that was blue in color, with white cranes embroidered on the hem. Anyway, he was walking around his own village, and there were no outsiders, so his hair was untied and scattered on his shoulders. It was made of white jade, with a light-colored emerald in the middle, which was worn by Ji Zhao on his forehead and tied in a loose knot at the back of his head, and a ribbon of the same blue color as sky water hung between his black hair.

Ji Zhao looked in the mirror, and it looked pretty good. The emerald water head was very good, the color was light, it matched the clothes very well, it was embedded between the eyebrows, it was cold and very comfortable.

He got up and went out with Yin Ming and Chen Xing. He didn't like to take many people with him when he went out. He suspected that except for the people from Yangzhou, the others were all sent by the prince.His guards only told them to stay away from him, and only the two of them followed closely.

The lotus is indeed blooming well. If you look at it from a distance, you can't see the end of it.

Chen Xing smiled: Today is a hurry, prepare a boat another day, let's go rowing to pick flowers!When the flowers are gone, there are still lotus pods to eat! "

"Okay..." Ji Zhao answered dispensable, just to give Chen Xing a compliment.

Many wooden bridges were built in the middle of the lotus pond. Ji Zhao stepped onto a bridge and smelled the faint fragrance of lotus flowers. It seemed that these flowers were the only ones left in the world. Really good! This Zhuangzi is really right..."

While talking, Ji Zhao turned his head and glanced at him lightly, Chen Xing shut up.

Chen Xing suddenly remembered that this Zhuangzi seemed to be given to him by the crown prince... He secretly glanced at Yin Ming, Yin Ming was worried, but he was stupid and didn't know how to coax him.

Ji Zhao was also angry. The only place he could escape was given by that person. What was going on? He hated the feeling of having nowhere to escape.

He bent down to pick a lotus leaf. Seeing this, Chen Xing was afraid that he would fall, so he quickly supported him. He picked another lotus flower. Yin Ming picked a lotus for him. He picked a bunch of lotus and handed it to him. Ji Zhao took a bunch. Holding the lotus in his hands, he finally smiled slightly, closed his eyes and smelled it again, but before he could say the phrase "it smells so good", he suddenly heard the sound of falling water.

He immediately looked back vigilantly, and saw five or six young servants jumping into the water one after another under the wooden bridge by the lotus pond. Ji Zhao frowned and walked off the bridge. Only then did I see a man struggling in the river, he was in such a panic, he was covered in fine clothes, he couldn't even shout "Help".

Ji Zhao nodded to Yin Ming, and Yin Ming also jumped into the water, taking the man up first.

Those little servants also climbed up, ignoring to wipe off the water on their bodies, they threw themselves beside the man, crying, "Mr. Lord, are you okay! Don't scare me! Mr. Sir... woo woo Woo..."

They all pushed Yin Ming away, Chen Xing rolled his eyes, and said, "Squeeze the water out of his stomach first!"

"Ah?" Those people looked up stupidly.

Ji Zhao glanced at Yin Ming again, Yin Ming squatted down, and took pictures of the water that the man ate very skillfully, the man lay on top of him and coughed, those few people didn't know how to thank them, and He rushed forward and called "Lang Jun".

Chen Xing was very dissatisfied, but he didn't bother to scold these people, he just asked: "Who are you? Why are you here?"

He intended to help to the end, to help them send a letter to their family members, but one of the servants turned around and yelled at Ji Zhao: "If it weren't for you standing on the bridge to look at the lotus, and our lord would take care of you, why would you?" will fall into the water!"

"Are you sick?!" Chen Xing was so angry that he almost cursed.

Ji Zhao was in a bad mood recently, so he turned around and left: "Let's go..."

He didn't want to talk nonsense with these people at all, but unexpectedly, as soon as he took a step, someone grabbed the corner of his clothes. He looked down suspiciously. Guang: "Beauty! Who are you!"

"..." Ji Zhao looked at him for a moment, then at Chen Xing and Yin Ming.

"Beauty! Come home with me!" He looked at Ji Zhao's face, almost drooling, "I'll raise a crane for you! You are as beautiful as a crane! No, you are more beautiful than a crane! You—"

Ji Zhao took a step forward, pulled out the corner of his clothes, shook it slightly, turned his back to them, and walked straight away with flowers in his hands.
