The queen cried the whole harem

The best way is to remove Qi Rongchu and prevent Qi Rongchu from getting into the affairs of the palace. By following Qi Hengyuan, Qi Rongchu will know a lot of things that people outside don't know. It used to be okay, but it is not possible now.

After Qi Rongchu left the palace, she asked Yan Lang and Chen Hong to stare at Qi Rongchu outside, so that she could focus on Rong Wanyin wholeheartedly.

It is impossible to kill Qi Rongchu at this time. Qi Rongchu did not reveal any abnormality. Uncle Qi and Princess Qi are very fond of him. If Qi Rongchu died inexplicably, these two people will definitely let Qi Hengyuan investigate thoroughly. This is not right. It's easy to deal with them, just tell them Qi Rongchu's identity as a spy of Jiang State, but if Qi Rongchu is removed, there will be Zhou Rongchu, Zhao Rongchu, Zhang Rongchu and so on.

Rather than letting Uncle Jiang send another person with unknown identity, and they have to worry about finding the new spy, they might as well keep an eye on Qi Rongchu.

Naturally, Yan Ning's thoughts were not told to Qi Hengyuan, and there was no way to explain it. If he did, he would have to explain a lot of things, and also expose her as Muhua Marry. Yan Ning just emphasized that Chen Dongyan should be reinstated to his original position now that Chen Dongyan is back. , Qi Rongchu is still young and should focus on learning.

Qi Hengyuan pondered for a moment and said: "Chen Dongyan is still the governor of Jiuguan and Jiucheng. He came back this time. Firstly, he suffered a great disaster and came back to report to his family that he was safe. Secondly, he came back to celebrate the New Year, and because he wanted to meet Ji Yan. If you get married, you may stay in Guiyang City for a while, but the Nine Passes and Nine Cities have not been completely taken back, so he, as the governor, still has to go back."

Yan Ning said: "There is no need to let him go back. He can continue to be the governor, but there is no need to go to the nine passes and nine cities. Your Majesty, if you want to declare war, you have to go to the border in person. I am pregnant and cannot accompany your majesty, but Chen Dongyan You must stay with His Majesty and bring him back first to protect His Majesty."

Qi Hengyuan looked at Yan Ning: "You seem to be very nervous."

He put down his chopsticks, reached out to hold her in his arms, and whispered: "It's you who are pregnant, not me. Why are you so nervous that I'm here? You don't want Qi Rongchu to stay. I just don't want him to stay. Don't worry." Raise your baby and don’t worry about these things.”

Yan Ning said softly: "I did not prevent Qi Rongchu from staying. Qi Rongchu can still stay in the palace guard, but his studies have not been completed. I feel that since Chen Dongyan wants to stay in Guiyang City for a while, it is better to let him stay." He first served His Majesty and asked Qi Rongchu to study again, and he was delayed for a long time. Although he is smart, he studies while working and makes up for his homework, but it is so tiring."

From the moment Qi Rongchu entered the palace, Yan Ning was somewhat wary of Qi Rongchu, and Qi Hengyuan knew it. Because of Yan Ning's wariness, Qi Hengyuan was also wary of Qi Rongchu, and even tested him many times.

It's just that Qi Rongchu didn't have any problems.

Qi Hengyuan knew Yan Ning's thoughts and did not reveal it. He said with a smile: "Anyway, everything depends on you. You are now the old Buddha in the palace."

Yan Ning glared: "Your Majesty, you are making fun of me."

Qi Hengyuan laughed and asked, "Aren't you hungry? You don't even eat."

Yan Ning said: "I have eaten the medicinal food, and I am not hungry."

Qi Hengyuan put her back: "Then you sit down and I eat."

After Qi Hengyuan had eaten, he went to the imperial study room.

As soon as he started reviewing the memorial, Qi Rongchu came.

Qi Rongchu took up his post after breakfast and returned home before dinner. He didn't stay in the palace for long, but he took Chen Dongyan's place and stayed with Qi Hengyuan. He knew many things that others didn't know.

Qi Hengyuan glanced at Qi Rongchu but didn't speak to him.

Qi Hengyuan carefully reviewed the memorial, and after settling part of the memorial, Qi Hengyuan took a rest and let the prince serve tea and snacks.

Qi Hengyuan called Qi Rongchu to come over and have tea and snacks together.

Qi Rongchu thanked him and came over.

Naturally, he didn't dare to sit down, so he stood next to Qi Hengyuan.

Qi Hengyuan asked Qi Rongchu: "Have you caught up with last year's homework?"

Qi Rongchu nodded: "I caught up."

Qi Hengyuan didn't say anything and said, "This year's school has just started. There are several more students in Shengzhi Academy, and Yan Lang is back. Do you want to go back to school?"

Qi Rongchu lowered his eyelashes and squinted his eyes. After a moment, he raised his eyes and looked at Qi Hengyuan: "Your Majesty wants me to go back to school?"

Qi Hengyuan took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "You are very sensitive."

He put the tea cup down, played with the ruby ​​​​toggle on his thumb for a while, and said calmly: "Don't be nervous, I am just chatting with you and caring about your studies. You are still young, so you should focus on studying."

When Qi Rongchu heard this, he didn't understand Qi Hengyuan's intention.

He squinted his eyes again, thought for a while, and took the initiative to say: "I was working while studying last year. It was indeed a bit difficult. It's just that my father and mother have high expectations for me. I don't want to slack off. No matter how tired I am, I will grit my teeth and persevere. If you don't take up your job and study wholeheartedly, it will indeed be much easier, and you will be able to understand the knowledge more thoroughly."

What Qi Rongchu was really learning was, of course, not the knowledge from the Holy Philosophy Academy. What he was learning were the books on astronomy and geography that he took from Yan Lang.

It's just that he doesn't have magical powers, and he doesn't know how to learn. You can't learn magical powers by studying step by step.

Without Yan Ning's guidance, just reading books would only result in book knowledge.

Even though Qi Rongchu was smart, it was very difficult, but he was still learning.

Every day he works, he also has to complete his homework at the Holy Philosophy Academy, and he also has to study astronomy and geography, which is really a bit overwhelming.

If you don't hold a job and study wholeheartedly, it will be great.

Yan Lang is also back. Qi Rongchu can go to Yan Lang for advice. Then, he should also make a breakthrough in astronomy and geography.

The reason for joining the palace was to obtain more information, information about His Majesty the State of Qi, and information about Concubine Yan.

It's just that different stages require different choices. Entering the palace first is the right time. Now that His Majesty Qi wants him to leave the palace, he naturally has no choice but to leave the palace.

Asking them to chase him away would make them dissatisfied, so it would be better to leave on your own initiative, which would also settle well in their hearts.

Qi Rongchu quickly weighed the pros and cons and said, "Can I leave the palace and concentrate on my studies?"

"Of course."

"But I have left the palace, and I am with Your Majesty..."

"Don't worry, there are so many palace guards. Chen Dongyan is also back. I plan to let him resume his original position temporarily."

Qi Rongchu nodded: "It is indeed great for Mr. Chen to return to His Majesty."

Qi Hengyuan said: "Don't think that I wanted you to study because I wanted Chen Dongyan to come back. In fact, from the beginning, I thought you were too young and should focus on studying. But at that time, Uncle Wang insisted on letting you enter." Palace experience, I don’t want to disappoint Uncle Wang, so I complied with him and let you take up a position in the palace. Now that you are out of the palace to study, it is just study, and it does not affect your position. You are still a member of the palace guard, but your current position is It's just about studying. When you grow up, Chen Dongyan gets married, and you have other arrangements, you can still stay with me."

Qi Rongchu hummed: "I understand."

Qi Hengyuan said: "Don't worry about Uncle Wang, I will make it clear to him."

Qi Rongchu nodded and asked, "Will I leave now?"

"At noon, I will ask Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang to have dinner in the palace, and you will come with them. After that, you can go back with them, so you don't have to come over in the afternoon." Qi Rongchu said, "Okay."

Qi Hengyuan asked the prince to send someone to Prince Qi's Mansion to inform him, and then sent someone to Fengyi Palace to ask Yan Ning to prepare lunch to entertain Uncle Prince Qi and Princess Qi.

During lunch, Uncle Qi, Princess Qi, Qi Rongchu, Qi Hengyuan, and Yan Ning were sitting at the dining table.

Princess Qi and Uncle Qi came in advance. Princess Qi met Yan Ning first and asked about the reason for coming to the palace to have dinner. Yan Ning gave some general remarks. Naturally, she was doing Qi Rongchu's good from Qi Rongchu's side. According to reports, Princess Qi was not angry, just surprised.

But considering that Chen Dongyan is back, it is reasonable for His Majesty to re-employ Chen Dongyan.

His Majesty wants to declare war, and almost everyone knows His Majesty's determination to declare war. Since he wants to declare war, there is nothing wrong with Chen Dongyan following him.

It's just that this is a good opportunity. Yan Lang is young, has already participated in several battles, and has also been granted the title of Marquis of Wu.

Chen Hong is young and has some achievements.

Only Qi Rongchu had nothing.

Just a palace guard with no achievements.

If Qi Rongchu follows His Majesty, the next time war is declared, Qi Rongchu can go, and maybe he can also make achievements?

Princess Qi told Yan Ning what she was thinking.

Princess Qi also knew that Yan Ning was favored. Now that Yan Ning was still pregnant, it could be said that her words were more powerful than the imperial edict. As long as she agreed, Qi Rongchu would have the opportunity to go to the battlefield and gain merit.

Yan Ning did not object and said with a smile: "Parents always think of their children wholeheartedly. It is only human nature for Princess Qi to want to give Prince Qi a chance to make contributions."

"Your Majesty asked Prince Qi to concentrate on his studies, and it is indeed for the sake of Prince Qi. Although Prince Qi no longer takes up a post in the palace and devotes himself to studying, he is still a palace guard. As long as he wants, he is willing, and he has the ability to make meritorious deeds and go to the top. His Majesty will definitely take him with him as he is determined to kill the Jiang soldiers on the battlefield. This Princess Qi can rest assured, I can guarantee that."

With Yan Ning's guarantee, Princess Qi felt relieved.

But Princess Qi didn't know Yan Ning's considerations. Qi Rongchu was a spy of the Jiang State and might not be willing to go into battle to kill the Jiang people.

If Qi Rongchu refuses, it has nothing to do with her and Qi Hengyuan.

But if Qi Rongchu agrees, then we can also take a closer look at Qi Rongchu's intention of lurking in Qi State, and there may be an unexpected gain.

Princess Qi knew the reason for going to the palace to have dinner, so she naturally went to tell Uncle Qi again.

Now both Uncle Qi and Princess Qi knew about it. During lunch, Qi Hengyuan mentioned this matter again. The two of them looked at each other and accepted it calmly without any fuss.

After lunch, Uncle Qi and Princess Qi left with Qi Rongchu.

Qi Hengyuan asked Yan Ning: "Do you want to rest?"

Yan Ning shook her head: "I'm a little full after eating, I'm going to go for a walk."

Qi Hengyuan stepped forward to help her: "I will accompany you."

Niandie was completely useless, so he followed behind with the prince and his father-in-law.

The palace maids and eunuchs also followed.

Qi Hengyuan said: "Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang are not noisy. You have calmed their emotions in advance, right?"

Yan Ning shook his head: "No, what Uncle Qi and Princess Qi care about is not Qi Rongchu's official position, but his achievements. Princess Qi wants Qi Rongchu to go on an expedition with His Majesty. I think Qi Rongchu's martial arts are not weak, and it is indeed time for him to truly experience them. , Yan Lang has been to the battlefield, Chen Hong has also been to the battlefield, Qi Rongchu is not necessarily weaker than Yan Lang and Chen Hong, if he goes to the battlefield, he should also be able to do something, so he privately promised Princess Qi that when His Majesty starts the war, he will personally conquer the border. When the time comes, let Qi Rongchu go too, but Qi Rongchu is willing to do so. As long as I have a promise from my side, Princess Qi will be very happy. This is what she cares about, so she won't make any noise."

Qi Hengyuan groaned, understanding, and glanced at Yan Ning again, with a somewhat cryptic look.

Yan Ning seemed to think that Qi Rongchu would not be willing to go to the battlefield.

This is a bit strange.

However, what happened to Yan Ning was a lot strange.

Qi Hengyuan memorized them one by one.

After walking for half an hour, her stomach was no longer so full. Yan Ning went back to rest, with Qi Hengyuan accompanying her.

After Yan Ning fell asleep, Qi Hengyuan got up and went to the imperial study room to tell Chen Dongyan to enter the palace.

Chen Dongyan accompanied Ji Yan to North Street today to see the house that the king rewarded Ji Yan.

The house was very big. They spent the whole morning shopping around, and then they had a meal outside at noon.

While eating, Chen Dongyan said: "First find someone to make a door plaque, and then repair the dilapidated and collapsed areas inside. The front yard, atrium, and back yard are clearly divided, and there are quite a few rooms. If you want to live here, you have to buy some The maid and the mother-in-law, I will ask the fourth aunt to help with this matter. I will pay for the money to buy the maid and the mother-in-law."

Ji Yan was not polite to him and said, "I listen to you. When the house is ready, my second uncle, second aunt, and brother should also be here."

Chen Dongyan said: "It's almost done."

After the two of them had lunch, Chen Dongyan went to find a carpenter to repair the yard, build a door plaque, and negotiate a price. When the carpenter arrived, Chen Dongyan asked Liu Jin to keep an eye on it, and he took Ji Yan back to the Chen Mansion.

After returning home, I went to see Mrs. Xie and told me about buying the maid and the wife.

Mr. Xie immediately took action and sent his confidant, Mother Zhou, to handle the matter.

Chen Dongyan wanted to talk to Xie about the betrothal gift, but before he could talk about it, someone from the palace summoned him away.

Mrs. Xie took Ji Yan's hand and was about to talk to her when Ji Yan spoke first: "Fourth Aunt, I want to go out and buy some materials to make a wedding dress. Can you accompany me?"

Most women in boudoirs sew wedding dresses themselves when they get married. Of course, there are also special embroidery pavilions to sew wedding dresses. For example, when a princess gets married, she does not have to do it herself.

Ji Yan was very happy to marry Chen Dongyan. Not only did she want to sew her own wedding dress, she also wanted to sew a groom's suit for Chen Dongyan.

Anyway, she's fine.

It's just that we can't make it in time.

She and Chen Dongyan got married on the eighth day of February, and today was the sixteenth day of the first lunar month. There were twenty-two days in between. She only had enough time to sew a wedding dress for herself, not enough for Chen Dongyan.

But Chen Dongyan's groom's uniform was naturally prepared for him.

When Mrs. Xie heard that Ji Yan said she wanted to sew a wedding dress, she said with a smile: "Since His Majesty gave you the marriage certificate, I have already had your wedding dress and Dongyan's groom's suit made. But if you want to make it yourself It is also possible to sew a wedding dress. When the time comes, you will wear the wedding dress that you sewed yourself, and you can put the one I made for you as a collection." (End of this chapter)
