Kaolin Flower Raiders Guide

In Qinzheng Hall, Emperor Yunkang left behind the crown prince, Sun Shaofu, Minister of Rites, Jianzheng of Qintian Supervisor, and Zhongcheng Yushi, all left behind by Emperor Yunkang.

The new crown prince was talking with Sun Shaofu, and the rest of them walked behind.Lu Xiao wanted to start a conversation with Qi Jiansi several times, but when she saw his cold gaze, she closed her mouth resentfully.

Qin Tianjian is about [-] years old, his surname is Li, he has an ordinary appearance, but his voice is very pleasant.I heard that Li Jianzheng was promoted to be a supervisor only this year. Lu Xiao didn't know this person before, but Emperor Yunkang summoned him frequently. The number of times this person has met face-to-face can be counted on the fingers.So "the king does not see the king", but he also remembered Li Jianzheng.

Lu Xiao, the servant, took it easy. He was young, and he made up for his predecessor's vacancy.Everyone knew that Emperor Yunkang put such an unremarkable young man by his side to relieve his boredom because of his cleverness. As for major matters, it was never his turn to meddle in one or two, and just say some kind opinions.

The crown prince was naturally standing at the front, Emperor Yunkang smiled slightly and said: "A few lovers, do you know what I have called you to discuss?"

Lu Xiao excluded himself, looked around, and saw the positions of several ministers in his mind. Except that Yushitai looked out of place, an idea suddenly appeared in his mind.

All the people in front of them seemed to listen to the holy words with all their ears, and Emperor Yunkang was very useful, and he casually revealed his thoughts, which coincided with Lu Xiao's guess.

"Before the prince went out to fight, I deliberately chose a marriage for him. I have delayed it for a long time. In recent days, I have always kept this matter in mind."

Lu Xiao was taking refuge at home at that time, but he didn't know that Emperor Yunkang had already mentioned the matter of marriage proposal at the banquet of ministers years ago.When I heard it today, I suddenly became enlightened.No wonder he hurriedly chose a date to hold the grand ceremony for the establishment of the crown prince, originally to put the matter of marrying the princess on the agenda.

The first one to speak was of course the crown prince, and Xie Shenxing's tone could not detect any emotion: "Father, there is only one month left before the new year. At this time, we are discussing the matter of getting married. I feel that I am in a hurry."

What he said was reasonable, seeing Emperor Yunkang pointing his eyes at Li Jianzheng, Li Wanjun immediately understood: "It's rare for the palace to sympathize with the palace people. I have already counted it a few days ago, and there is no one in the remaining months of the year." On the auspicious day, this matter is not in a hurry."

Emperor Yunkang said: "I won't go around in circles anymore. I am summoning everyone here today to inform you in advance. Don't wait until the next year to be in a hurry. Liu Shangshu, Sun Qing, after Li Aiqing deduces the auspicious date, you two will Let’s start making preparations.”

After all, let the three of them retreat first.

This matter has nothing to do with him, if Emperor Yunkang would have sent him away long ago, Lu Xiao was wondering, Emperor Yunkang called his name.

"Lu Shizhong, I heard that your good news is coming soon?"

Lu Xiao's eyelids twitched, and she hurriedly said, "If you go back to Your Majesty, I don't have any plans to get married yet."

"Is this true?"

"Every word is true!"

Emperor Yunkang said: "Perhaps I misremembered, you should step back first."

The endless conversation made Lu Xiao puzzled. When he got up, he caught a glimpse of Qi Jiansi who was still in the hall but hadn't said a word yet.

Qi Jiansi has a biological sister.

He was close to Qi Jiansi, and there were often some gossip outside, and there were too many rumors, and Emperor Yunkang couldn't tell the truth from the false if it fell into the ears of Emperor Yunkang.And Emperor Yunkang asked such a question in front of Qi Jiansi, and since Lu Xiao answered, no matter whether it was true or not, his way was blocked.

Emperor Yunkang took a fancy to Qi Jiansi's younger sister to be the princess.

It turned out that there was such a thing, guessing that Emperor Yunkang distracted Li Wanjun when he was talking about something, so that he would not let him slip up in front of Qi Jiansi.Qi Jiansi obviously had objections to this matter, if he had known earlier, he would have made preparations in advance.The sudden mention of it today caught him off guard.

Lu Xiao didn't know that this matter had already been deeply rooted in Qi Jiansi's heart, she lowered her head and almost walked to the main entrance, where she met someone from Chongyu Palace.The little eunuch politely told him to go to Chongyu Palace to have a cup of tea before leaving. Lu Xiao didn't have time to deal with Xie Shenshou right now, so she said she had something to do and left.

It was a rare occasion in a thousand years. As soon as Lu Xiao came out from the side door, he saw the carriage of Qi Mansion.

With a thought in his mind, he quickly stepped forward and called Meng Ye who was talking to his attendant.He was caught by Meng Ye's flashing expression when he turned his head, and Lu Xiao was even more convinced that Meng Ye might have heard what he was talking nonsense that day, and Qi Jiansi couldn't save himself so he didn't talk to him.

He quickly calmed down and pretended to chat with Meng Ye unintentionally: "I haven't seen you for a while, your son is very busy these days?"

Meng Ye didn't understand those twists and turns, and said bluntly: "Young master is studying in the study every day, very serious."

Reading every day, never going out, confirming that Qi Jiansi was indeed avoiding him, Lu Xiao began to follow the idiot's words: "Studying all day will make you a nerd, didn't your young master say that you want to go out to relax?"

Meng Ye said stubbornly: "No, the young master is not a bookworm."

... You have to go straight with this person, Lu Xiao lowered her voice: "I mean, why hasn't Qi Zhiyu come to see me recently?"

Meng Ye was horrified, and a line of words "So he is pestering the young master" rolled in his mind.He rarely swallowed the words in his stomach for a while, thinking about changing the sentence to something less unpleasant: "Young master is very busy, Mr. Lu is considerate and considerate of him."

Lu Xiao rolled her eyes: "Didn't you say that he only reads books every day, what is this busy?"

How could this man not understand his words? Meng Ye was so anxious that he wanted to stomp his feet: "Even if you value Mr. Lu, you can't go to Mr. Lu's house every day."

Lu Xiao stroked her chin and said thoughtfully, "I see, then I'll visit the mansion another day. Does your master and wife have any taboos? Tell me."

Meng Ye was like a frightened little animal: "No way!"

He can see the entanglement between the young master and this person, if the old lady sees it, how should the young master deal with himself!

Lu Xiao frowned: "Why not?"

Meng Ye scratched his head and couldn't figure out why. Suspicions swirled in Lu Xiao's heart. He sighed, but he didn't want to embarrass this idiot anymore.

Lu Xiao glanced at him in frustration: "Forget it, don't tell your son what I'm talking to you."

The idiot nodded solemnly, Lu Xiao turned her back and walked home silently.

Not long after the difficult Mr. Lu left, Qi Jiansi came out from the side door.Meng Ye greeted him as usual, and caught a glimpse of his young master's dismal face before he could speak.

Qi Jiansi boarded the carriage, rubbed his temples and said wearily: "Hurry up and go home."

Emperor Yunkang's intentions are clearly revealed, the crown prince's mother's family is prominent enough, there is no need to add icing on the cake for him.If it is too conspicuous, it will attract people's envy and hatred, but you can't belittle your son too much.He didn't want to wrong Xie Shenxing, and he didn't want the Ning family to be in his hands forever, so the best choice was ready.

The Qi family has gone through three dynasties, and Qi Jiansi's grandfather is the most trusted minister of Emperor Yuanwu.From the old man Qi to Qi Ce, and now to Qi Jiansi, although his status is outstanding, he has never formed a party with any faction in the court, and has stood for many years by himself.

The daughter of the Qi family, in her twenties and eight years, there is no fault in her appearance, and she is just right for Xie Shenxing.

Years ago, Emperor Yunkang hinted at Qi Jiansi, but Qi Jiansi pretended to be confused and stopped him.Ever since the crown prince returned to court, Qi Jiansi had always had a premonition that marrying the crown princess would come sooner or later.Now that he brought this matter to the table, Yu Qi Jiansi was expected.Admonishment, no matter how disrespectful he said it was just a trivial matter.Emperor Yunkang called him privately, and he could not refuse firmly no matter what.

What did he say, the younger sister is still young, and the marriage is decided by the parents, so I'm afraid I can't make the decision for the younger sister.

Emperor Yunkang smiled on his face, but there was a sense of calm and prestige: "Then what if I personally bestow the marriage?"

A thunderbolt hit him, and Emperor Yunkang saw him silent and didn't force him any more. He told him to go home and talk to his parents and younger sister. Qi Jiansi withdrew, leaving only the prince in the end.

Qi Mansion.

As soon as he returned to the mansion, he went directly to his father, but he didn't expect his mother to be there, so he simply asked his servants to ask Qi Jianci to come to the study.Qi Jian Siping retreated from the servants who were waiting on him, and asked Meng Ye to stand guard at the door, and don't let anyone who doesn't have a good eye sneak over.Qi's father was sitting in Qi Jiansi's usual position, the woman was the most sensitive, although Qi's mother was sitting, she was restless.

Qi Jiansi pushed the door open and asked, "Why hasn't Miss come here yet?"

Before he finished speaking, Qi Jianci slowly appeared at the corner of the corridor with his skirt in hand.Although Qi Jiansi has always been expressionless, he is still somewhat gentle towards his sister, but this time he is different from the past, and raised his voice: "Ah Ci, why are you dawdling!"

After all, it's winter, and the daughter's house is wrapped up thickly, making it difficult to move around. Qi Jianci said back to him: "If you urge people, you urge them, what are you doing!"

After finishing speaking, Qi Jiansi entered the room, and when Qi Jianci came over, he asked Meng Ye in a low voice: "What's wrong, brother?"

Meng Ye looked sad: "The young master has not been in a good mood since he came out of the palace."

Qi Jianci paused, smiled at him, and stepped into the study.She obediently blessed Fushen, said that she had seen her father, and went to stand beside Qi's mother.

Qi Ce held the scroll in his hand, and was still reading it at a leisurely pace. Seeing his wife and children looking distressed, and the fear on his daughter's face, he put down the scroll: "Jian Si, call the whole family over here , why didn't you speak?"

Here Qi Jiansi just relayed Yun Kangdi's meaning word by word, while Qi Jianci anxiously squeezed the brocade handkerchief and rubbed it, looking at his father for a while, and shaking his mother's forearm for a while.

"It's still the same thing," Qi Ce turned to his daughter who was looking around, "Ah Ci, what do you think?"

Qi Jianci was so impatient, but he still remembered the usual teachings of his mother and nanny, knelt down in front of his father, and firmly said: "My daughter does not want to be the concubine of this Lao Shizi!"

Qi Jiansi naturally inherited the good looks of his parents, but Qi Ce is a hundred times more resolute than Qi Jiansi's face, and often thinks about his own two children, but the elder brother is more delicate than the younger sister.Qi Ce is a man who loves to laugh, he somehow gave birth to a son of a debt collector, now he asked with a smile, "Others can't find a way to become a princess, so why is my Ah Ci unwilling?"

"My daughter just doesn't want to, and my father still laughs at my daughter!" Qi Jianci pursed his lips, seeing that his father didn't seem half worried about her, he was even more aggrieved.

Qi's mother felt sorry for her daughter, and got up to smooth things over for her: "Sir, don't be joking, there is nothing good about being a princess. Don't you know about the daughter you gave birth to? , this silly girl has to shed tears every day without shedding her skin."

Originally, Xie Shenxing was only the second prince, but times have changed, and the second prince is now the prince, so how can the princess and the princess be the same.

Qi's mother was worried: "The Holy Majesty said that he would bestow a marriage. Doesn't Ah Ci have to marry if she marries, or if she doesn't marry?"

Hearing this, Qi Jianci was so frightened that she shed tears. Although she is a young girl, she is a concubine who was brought up by the official family, so she must understand the pros and cons.If the imperial decree arrives at Qi Mansion, she will put on a wedding dress even if she doesn't want to.Marrying completes the glory of the Qi family, and not marrying ruins the Qi family.

Qi Jiansi, who has been silent since the first words, moved his lips, but before he could make a sound, Qi Ce got up and walked towards his wife: "Madam, take Ah Ci back to the room."

After he spoke, Qi's mother had no choice but to hold her daughter's hand, and returned to the boudoir with Qi Jianci, who was tearful.

There was no incense burned in the study, Qi Jiansi didn't like this kind of spice, he said that the fragrance of ink was enough.Only father and son were left in the room, Qi Ce put away his smile and said, "Are you out of your mind, or is this just messing yourself up?"

Qi Jiansi hesitated and said, "I did panic for a while at first, but in the gap between father and Ah Ci's conversation, I saw a glimmer of life, and maybe there is room for change. I just don't know why my father stopped..."

Qi Ce motioned him to continue, and Qi Jiansi said truthfully: "If you want to turn this matter around, there are only three ways to go through. One is His Majesty's will, and this road is naturally the most difficult. The other is Ah Ci's will." Reputation, if you want to invalidate the marriage, only Ah Ci is not worthy of the crown prince. However, the younger sister will discuss marriage in the future, and the reputation must not be damaged. The third is to exchange the official career of the Qi family and forcibly refuse it. It will definitely displease His Majesty, move out grandfather and father, His Majesty may change his mind, but from now on, no matter whether he is in the court or not, the life of the Qi family will definitely not be easy."

"So, you have rejected all three ways." Qi Ce looked at him calmly.

"Marriage is a matter between two people, and among these three paths, the prince does not seem to exist." Qi Jiansi's expression softened slightly: "I recalled the expression of the prince today, if I read correctly... maybe I can find a breakthrough from the prince .”

Qi Ce said: "Our Holy Majesty bullied you when you were young and suppressed you with words. Think about it carefully, even though he brought the Prince's marriage to the table, only you and the Prince were left behind. This is the flaw. The Holy Majesty meant Ah Ci, but he has not made a decision. On the surface, he is testing you, but secretly he is taking into account the prince's attitude. If you can tell the prince to let go, the matter of our family, Ah Ci, will be solved easily. .”

Fortunately, the father and son looked at each other, and Qi Jiansi suddenly thought of something: "Why didn't my father let me forgive my sister?"

Qi Ce smiled, and wrote lightly: "Your sister is not afraid of anything all day long, so it's good to let her be afraid for a few days, and grind her temper."

"……"Older gingers are more spicy.
