The story of the rich and the young being tricked into farming

After lunch, King Ning personally sent Ye Xiaozhou out of the mansion.

Seeing that Ye Xiaozhou was still looking sullen, Jing Min suddenly said to him: "If my concubine still can't let go, why don't I go with you?"

Han Xiuping lowered his head and reminded: "My lord, the queen mother didn't announce you, if you enter the palace rashly, I'm afraid something will happen unexpectedly."

"So what?" Jing Min raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Now the relationship between the prince and those two is on the line," Han Xiuping said sternly, "You also know that the queen mother has always been at odds with you, and my subordinates think that if the prince violates his wishes this time, I'm afraid that she will ignore it." Reputation, I will attack you in advance."

"My lord...should be much more sober than his subordinates.",

Every word he said, Jing Min naturally knew it very clearly.

If Jing Ling is really pushed into a hurry, I'm afraid he will jump over the wall in a hurry, and take a drastic move to kill him first, and then even if the truth of Emperor Xiaoren's death is revealed, there is no one else in the Jing family except him, Jing Ling. The powerful people can secure the throne.

But Jing Min thought about it, and felt that if Jing Ling was really in such a hurry to act, then he and Ye Xiaozhou were shot and died in the palace together, which is quite worth looking forward to.

However, Ye Xiaozhou might not think so.

And Jing Min didn't really want to do the things he was unhappy about.

Although Ye Xiaozhou didn't know what King Ning was planning, he could vaguely sense the tension between the two sides, so even though he really didn't want to enter the palace alone, he still said: "Don't bother the prince, the queen mother probably can't." Let me down."

After speaking, Ye Xiaozhou boarded the soft sedan chair parked at the gate of the palace.

King Ning watched the soft sedan go away, but did not make a sound to persuade him to stay.

He figured it out, after all, Ye Xiaozhou was not his property, nor was he a canary that should be locked in a cage. Even Ye Hongfang couldn't imprison him in the calm corner of Ye Mansion for a lifetime. He has to see the storm outside after losing the protection of others.

The two quickly returned to the courtyard.

"Send more people to watch his sedan chair secretly along the way." Jing Min stepped forward to the side pavilion, said calmly, "and then inform the hidden stakes in the palace. If there is any change in the palace, everyone else Don't worry about it, just do your best to protect the princess."

Pushing an empty wheelchair in his hand, Han Xiuping followed behind Jing Min, as if he could see King Ning's worry, he suddenly said, "My lord, now that old eunuch is still in our hands, those two must not dare to act rashly. .”

"Of course they don't dare. As long as the truth is made public, those old ministers will definitely scold Jing Ling. As long as he bears the charge of killing his father, the power in the court will definitely fall apart," Jing Min said slowly. Then he said, "The troops under Jing Ling's subordinates are mostly fake. Only the soldiers under General Fuyuan have actually been on the battlefield. However, he is an old minister from the previous dynasty. He only has Emperor Xiaoren in his heart. Jing Ling The chances of winning are slim.”

Han Xiuping: "Since the prince knows, why..."

Jing Min lowered his eyes to look at the garden, because Ye Xiaozhou can only stay in the mansion recently, he can water those flowers and plants two or three times a day every day, and as far as King Ning can see, he can see several plants that died in vain because of this. flowers and plants.

An imperceptible smile suddenly flowed from the corner of King Ning's lips.

Regardless of the deliberate planning in the past, no matter how calculated without leaving a legacy, Jing Min is actually not very concerned about the final result, whether he can get the best or not, because no matter what he does is very easy, so no matter what he does Nothing interesting, nothing worth looking forward to.

But Ye Xiaozhou is different...

Although he didn't want to admit it, it was indeed the first time in his life that he had such a person who made him want to do his best.

"The slightest accident and risk fell on him," Jing Min's eyes moved slightly, and he said with a rare seriousness, "This king can't even accept it."

In the afternoon, the sun with a little cool autumn loomed through the clouds.

Jing Minyuan sat in the side pavilion and played chess with himself, occasionally distracted to look at the mottled shadows that sometimes disappear under the ginkgo tree.

Recently, he has been much more relaxed than before. Jing Ling is suspicious of him, so naturally he refuses to call him to discuss political affairs. Now, the things to be done and the powers to be seized have become an almost impeccable game of chess. With this last move, everything is settled.

Now that Ye Xiaozhou is not here, the courtyard is quiet, only the sound of the wind blowing leaves and chess pieces falling.

King Ning suddenly felt a little indescribably lonely.

"Follow me to the kitchen." King Ning threw the jade chess pieces into the urn, then stood up, "Take the wheelchair."

The fact that Jing Min is able to walk now is only known to the four people in their courtyard. All the slaves beside him were kept in the dark. Except for him and Han Xiuping, the two people in the courtyard saw him standing up for the first time. Sometimes, I'm not surprised.Needless to say, Ye Xiaozhou knew early in the morning that Prince Ning was just pretending. Chen Mengchu had heard Ye Xiaozhou say it before, so he didn't feel puzzled.

But other servants are different, Jing Min can't guarantee that there will be no eyeliner of Jing Ling in the palace, so he still has to wear one outside the courtyard.

Han Xiuping pushed King Ning all the way to the kitchen. The cook thought that the prince would check the ingredients in the kitchen again today, so he quickly greeted him with a smile.

"Your Highness, today's shad was delivered together with the tank just now, and it is kept fresh," the cook secretly straightened his bib, and then said, "this shad is from the south of the Yangtze River, and it is a rare fish. This steamed shad is one of the three delicacies in the south of the Yangtze River, I think the princess will like it."

Jing Min looked at the silver-white shad in the pottery tank, after walking on the water for so many days, they were still alive and kicking, flicking their tails.

"You have a heart."

The cook was flattered and said: "This is a slave's job, and I dare not take credit for it. The servant must take care of the matter of the prince and the princess."

Jing Min tapped lightly on the handlebar with his long and powerful knuckles, Han Xiuping immediately understood, and took out a few taels of silver from his body. Xiu Ping put the reward money into his palm, and the cook said with a happy smile, "I thank you, my lord, for the reward."

Jing Min went into the kitchen again, and after turning around a few times, he found that the ingredients here were so green that they were green, and those that were meat were fresh, and the coolness he mentioned last time did not appear again. food.

"Call Butler Wu to come over later. For those who work in the kitchen, the monthly rate will be increased by [-]%."

As soon as King Ning said this, the people in the kitchen immediately thanked him with joy. They thought it would be a good job to serve the prince and concubine, but who would have thought that it would be a good job to be on duty in the kitchen now? .

When everyone finished thanking the rewards, Jing Min suddenly said: "You all go back first, the king will cook in person today."

Everyone in the kitchen: ...

Han Xiuping: ...

Who doesn't know that King Ning has never been in the kitchen since he came to Luojing, but now he suddenly said that he wants to cook by himself... If it is said that he wants to do it himself, they will bring their kitchen and the whole kitchen together. The slaves were buried together, which makes people feel more reasonable.

But these people, including the cook, have all received Jing Min's favor just now, so no one would dare to say "no".

The cook pondered for a moment, and then squeezed out a flattering smile: "Your Highness is extremely talented, and this cooking job must be easy to do-the servants will retreat first, and His Highness will call the servants if you have anything to do." Come on, the servants can also help to light the fire, beat the underdogs and so on."

As soon as he finished speaking, all the servants in the kitchen withdrew.

In this palace, only Han Xiuping and Ye Xiaozhou dared not to follow Jing Min's wishes, but Han guards were concerned about the whipping they received last time, so they were more tactful in what they said.

"How can you do such vulgar things yourself with a body of a thousand pieces of gold?"

Jing Min's expression did not change: "I used to burn firewood and pick up dung when I was young, but now I just cook myself, so don't use the word vulgar to suppress me."

Han Xiuping smiled awkwardly: "What Your Highness said is that I just think that cooking can't be done overnight. The prince has no experience. If the things he cooks don't suit the princess's taste..."

The implication is, don't mess around, lest Ye Xiaozhou be hungry with you.

But Jing Min didn't seem to understand what he meant, and said with a blind self-confidence that came from nowhere: "I haven't eaten pork, haven't I seen a pig run away? I follow the recipe honestly, Can it still go wrong?"

Seeing that King Ning could not persuade him to come back, Han Xiuping had no choice but to burn firewood for the prince in bitterness.

At the same time, in the Compassionate Ning Palace.

Although Ye Xiaozhou took his seat under the empress dowager, the chair seemed to have thorns, even if he sat upright, he still felt restless.

The empress dowager sitting on the first seat had snow-white silver hair, and she didn't have the slightest sense of weakness of an old man. She looked at Ye Xiaozhou with nails and thorns in her eyes, which made Ye Xiaozhou very uncomfortable.

"What did you say was your name?" the Queen Mother suddenly asked.

Ye Xiaozhou sat upright, and said in a tense tone, "Caomin's surname is Ye, and his name is Xiaozhou."

The queen mother was silent for a long while, and then she said unhurriedly: "Now that you are married to King Ning, you have naturally lost your status as a commoner. Even if no one teaches you how to behave, you should figure it out yourself, Aijia It's Min'er's mother, as his princess, how should you call yourself?"

Ye Xiaozhou sweated coldly, and immediately changed his words: "My daughter-in-law's surname is Ye, and her name is Xiaozhou."

"That's right," the Queen Mother said slowly, "Min'er was separated from his father in the early years and lived among the people. He suffered a lot. As a wife and concubine, you should abide by your duty and respect your husband and elders."

Ye Xiaozhou responded quickly: "Yes, my daughter-in-law understands."

The Queen Mother paused for a moment, and then said: "Have some tea, don't be so nervous, Aijia won't eat you."

"Yes." That's what he said, but Ye Xiaozhou was obviously more nervous.

"Our Jing family is thin, so we are not afraid of your jokes. The emperor has been on the throne for nearly ten years, and he has only one son under his knees." There is a first-class maid in the Ai family who has been with the Ai family for seven or eight years, if you are generous, you will accept her into the palace as a concubine."

Although Ye Xiaozhou was prepared in his heart, he still seemed a little embarrassed because he had no experience in dealing with this matter: "Thank you for your kindness, the queen mother, but the prince didn't..."

The queen mother interrupted him and said: "This little maid has been with the Ai family for seven or eight years. She is gentle and dignified, and she is the most virtuous. Your lord is in charge, drinking her cup of concubine's tea must have brought this good thing together."
