Jingmen Fengyue

Chapter 1170
"Two days ago, Prime Minister Zuo suggested that you go to the border to help Zigui. But now there is no rush." ​​Qin Yu said, "The courtiers of the older generation in the court are old, and most of them are useless. I will need them in the future. Relying on you. Now it is the preparation of military pay, and secondly, the selection of talents through the imperial examination. The blood of the court should be exchanged."

Li Muqing nodded.

Qin Yu looked at Cui Yizhi who had been silent all this time, and asked with a smile, "Yizhi, you and Qin Zheng haven't heard from each other these days, tell me what happened?"

Cui Yizhi nodded when she heard the words, "I heard that Lin'an City is in danger, the lord and the left and right invited each other, so my cousin and I left the capital together." After a pause, she glanced at Xie Fanghua, seeing that she was not emotional, and seemed to have no objection to him After telling some secret things, he continued, "I have the spirit bird given by the patriarch of the Qinghe Cui clan in my hand. I used the tracking technique to track Miss Fanghua's whereabouts. After chasing all the way to Naihe Cliff, I followed the mechanism and searched for her. At Xunshuijian. At that time, Miss Fanghua had already left, and we met Mr. Yunlan."

"What about after that?" Qin Yu asked.

"My cousin learned that Miss Fanghua had left with the black comfrey, so he dragged me to live in Xunshuijian, and didn't leave Xunshuijian until Mr. Yun Ji went to find him, and at the same time learned that the former emperor had passed away. At that time, Mr. Li had already gone to Xunshuijian. We returned to Beijing together. On the way, my cousin said that he had something else to do, so he parted ways with us."

Qin Yu frowned, "Stay in Xunshuijian all the time, his own wish?"

Cui Yizhi nodded.

Qin Yu didn't quite understand, so he turned his head to look at Xie Fanghua.

Xie Fanghua lay lazily half on the soft couch, with her head tilted, looking out of the cabin, seemingly listening but not listening.

Qin Yu turned around and said to Cui Yizhi, "What did you do when you lived in Xunshuijian?"

Cui Yizhi said, "Cousin and Xie Yunlan play a game of chess every day, and the rest of the time, he meditates inside the house. He also suffered internal injuries and healed the wounds." After a pause, he continued, "Xunshuijian can't Send the message out."

Qin Yu nodded.

Several people chatted for a while, the boat came to the center of the lake, there were a few mandarin ducks playing there, when the boat came, they ran around in shock and scattered.

Yan Ting turned his head to look outside, and said, "It is said that mandarin ducks are in pairs and fly together, but now there is only such a small movement, and they run away in different directions. It can be seen that mandarin ducks are not the mascots of pairing."

Li Muqing laughed, "You have gained a lot from a trip to Beiqi. You used to disdain to study such things, but now you are paying more attention to them."

Yan Ting sighed, "This lotus is really nothing to look at." After saying that, she said to Qin Yu, "Your Majesty, it's fine if you take a look. I'm still hungry. If you want me to contribute to the court in the future , you shouldn’t have starved your subjects to death.”

Qin Yu smiled, didn't answer him, looked at Xie Fanghua, and asked in a gentle voice, "If you want to watch for a while, I'll order another boat to send them back for lunch."

"No need, let's go back." Xie Fanghua shook his head, "This lotus is indeed blooming very well, but it is about to fail."

"In two months, we can see sweet-scented osmanthus." Qin Yu said, "Each flower corresponds to each season, and each season enjoys each scene. If you lose, you can see it next year."

"That's right!" Xie Fanghua nodded with a smile.

Qin Yu ordered the boat to go back.

When they came to the lake and got off the boat, Qin Yu ordered lunch to be served on the viewing platform of the imperial garden, and invited Li Muqing, Yanting, and Cui Yizhi to have the meal together.The three did not refuse.

During the lunch, several people chatted about the preparation of military pay and conscription, as well as the promotion of government and the benefit of the people after ascending the throne.

After lunch, Li Muqing, Yanting, and Cui Yizhi left the palace.

Qin Yu sent Xie Fanghua back to the palace to rest, and began to process the memorial by himself.

Yan Ting walked out of the palace gate, and saw Mrs. Yongkanghou and Yan Lan waiting at the gate of the palace. He was stunned for a moment when he saw her mother with a big belly, and then quickly stepped forward and called out, "Mother."

Madam Yongkang Hou nodded with tears, and looked at Yan Ting with good eyes, as if she hadn't seen her for many years.

"Why didn't you wait for me in the mansion? It's such a hot day, be careful of heatstroke." Yan Ting stepped forward to support her, and cast a reproachful glance at Yan Lan, "You don't want to persuade her."

"Brother, since you are back, I am no longer a treasure in my mother's eyes. Knowing that you have entered the city, how can she wait in the mansion? I can't persuade her, so I can only accompany her here to wait." It's gone." Yan Lan shot Yan Ting a look.

"Let's go, let's go back to the residence first." Yan Ting said.

When Mrs. Yongkang Hou saw her son, she felt that she was really wrong before. When her son went out for this trip and came back again, seeing him now, it was obviously a different person.Standing with Li Muqing of the right minister's mansion and the second son of Qinghe Cui's family, they are not inferior at all.She nodded happily, "Don't blame your sister."

Yan Ting didn't really blame Yan Lan at first, and turned around to say goodbye to Li Muqing and Cui Yizhi.

The two smiled and went forward to salute Mrs. Yongkang Hou, arched their hands, and watched Yan Ting, Yan Lan, and Mrs. Yongkang Hou get into the carriage.

After the three left, Li Muqing asked Cui Yizhi, "Should Cui Shilang return to the residence or go to Prince Ying's residence?"

"I'll go to Prince Ying's Mansion first, aunt must want to know about my cousin these days." Cui Yizhi said.

"It's just right, I will go to Prince Ying's mansion first, and then return to the mansion, let's go together." Li Muqing said.

Cui Yizhi nodded.

The two went to the Prince's Mansion.

In Prince Ying's mansion, Prince Ying and Princess Ying knew that Li Muqing, Yanting, and Cui Yizhi had returned to the capital, and sent people to the palace to find out the news several times. , Li Muqing and Cui Yizhi came.

Princess Ying saw the two of them and immediately asked, "Boys from the Li family, Yizhi, where did Zheng'er go? Why didn't you go back to Beijing with you?"

Li Muqing and Cui Yizhi greeted Princess Ying.

Cui Yizhi told about how Qin Zheng parted ways with them after leaving Xunshuijian.

Princess Ying frowned after hearing this, "Where can he go by himself, alone? He really didn't tell you where he was going?"

Cui Yizhi shook his head, and Li Muqing shook his head too.

Princess Ying sighed, "This child is really worrying!" She asked again, "Then these days, you have been looking for water streams, have you heard of the death of the late emperor?"

"I heard that every day news from outside will be spread to Xunshuijian. Xie Yunlan didn't hide it from us." Cui Yizhi said, "My cousin knew that the former emperor had gone, and said that Nanqin Jiangshan is like this now. I'm relieved. It was too late to rush back, so I didn't rush back."

Princess Ying nodded.

"Why have you been staying in Xunshuijian?" Prince Ying was puzzled.

Cui Yizhi shook his head, "I don't know, my cousin lived in Xunshuijian, but he didn't leave after that. We didn't leave Xunshuijian until Xie Yunji and Mu Qing went looking for him."

"Lin'an City is in danger, and the Northern Qi Dynasty is raising troops, but he stays in Xunshuijian and does not leave. It is really puzzling. It seems that we can only know when we see him." Prince Ying asked again, "When did he finish his work and return to Beijing? ?"

Cui Yizhi shook her head.

The Prince of England asked again, "Then does he know about the emperor's enthronement?"

Cui Yizhi nodded, "I heard about it after I came out of Xunshuijian, and now the world has spread it, and there is a lot of buzz. Everyone is talking about the new emperor and Miss Fanghua."

Princess Ying was annoyed, "These people really like to chew their tongues, and they will move when there is a turmoil. Things that have not been confirmed are spread like a raging fire."

"The enthronement of the new emperor is a major event, and the establishment of a queen is a major event, and it is normal for the people to hear rumors." Prince Ying said.

Princess Ying asked again, "Zheng'er, what is your attitude when you hear about the emperor's ascension to the throne?"

Cui Yizhi thought for a while, then looked at Li Muqing.

Li Muqing sighed, "It seems to be a smile."

"What?" Princess Ying was taken aback.

Li Muqing looked at Cui Yizhi again.

Cui Yizhi nodded, "It seems that I really laughed at that time."

"This child, I don't know what the idea is." Prince Ying and Princess Ying also didn't understand.

The Prince of England was even more puzzled.

The two interrogated for a long time, but they only knew that Qin Zheng was safe and stayed in Xunshuijian all the time. They didn't know why he didn't return to Beijing immediately, but went to do something else. It was even more puzzling.Didn't get any useful information from it.

But what comforted the two of them was that Qin Zheng already knew about Qin Yu's ascension to the throne, and now that he knew, the next step was up to him.No one can help with this kind of thing.

After the four of them talked for a while, Princess Ying asked Li Muqing, "Boy Li, you and Fanghua are familiar after all. You have seen her when you entered the palace this time?"

Li Muqing nodded, "I see."

"Do you think there is any change in her?" Princess Ying asked.

Li Muqing thought for a while, then nodded, "There has indeed been a change, mainly because of her attitude towards the emperor. In the past, she didn't like the emperor, or even hated him, and she was very indifferent to the emperor's words when they met. Now she speaks softly and has a soft temper. Chatting with people is a bit funny, if it was left in the past, it would have been impossible."

Princess Ying's face was full of sadness when she heard the words, "Could it be that she really found out that she and Zheng'er have a bad temper? Have you fallen in love with the emperor?" After a pause, she continued, "Not to mention, girl Hua has a gentle temper, and the emperor has a gentle temperament. , They really have something in common. And Zheng'er... hey."

"Perhaps the former emperor has gone, and the emperor has stated that he will not take action against Xie, so let's make peace between the two." Li Muqing said, "After all, Fanghua's weakness is Xie."

"I hope!" Princess Ying sighed.

Li Muqing and Cui Yizhi stayed with Princess Ying for an hour before returning to their respective mansions.

After the two left, Princess Ying said, "Our Zheng'er is not someone who can stay in one place at leisure. There must be a reason why he hasn't left that Xunshui stream these days."

The Prince of England nodded.
