Queen's Development

Chapter 187 Dangerous
At night, the lights of Yanqingfang are bright and people come and go.

Li Rui brought Bai Yuming to the head of the Zhuque Bridge, pointed to the brightly lit place in front of him and said, "Master Bai, the Zhuquemen Waizhou Bridge Night Market is just ahead!"

Bai Yuming frowned and looked ahead, without speaking.

Li Rui took a look at him, and felt that Bai Yuming was like Yuzhi standing in front of the railing thinking about something, so he refused to look any further, looked away, and waved his hands lightly.

A handsome young man with a white face in Tsing Yi came over, holding a thin whip in his hand, with a smile on his lips, he cupped his hands and said, "I've seen you, sir!"

When Bai Yuming heard the voice, his eyes turned and he looked over.

Li Rui reached out and patted the shoulder of the handsome young man with a white face, and looked at Bai Yuming: "Master Bai, this is Jackdaw, he is your personal servant tonight!"

Jackdaw was still looking lazy and proud at first, but as soon as Li Rui finished speaking, he changed his face instantly, and looked up at Bai Yuming, with a cheerful expression and clear and innocent eyes, he was clearly a cute boy: "My lord, it's very lively in front of me. Let me take you there!"

Bai Yuming: "..."

He raised his hand to cover his nose and coughed lightly, "Let's go!"

Bai Yuming led the jackdaw into the crowd, and gradually disappeared. Li Rui still stood there, turned around and looked into the darkness for half a day.

A pair of twin teenagers came out and saluted respectfully.

Li Rui nodded slightly, and led them to a deep alley.

After entering a small house, Li Rui sat down on the armchair in the open room, and looked up at the twins: "What's the matter?"

One of the twins hurriedly said: "My lord, my subordinates have discovered that Guizhen believers from the northwest have mixed into the capital!"

Li Rui's expression became serious, and he said immediately, "Tell me the details!"

Because Lin Yin went to the palace, Yu Zhi rarely had leisure, so she followed Lin Jia to the outer study.

When Lin Jia met people in the study outside, Yu Zhi sat on the imperial concubine's couch behind the screen and read a book.

It was already late at night when Li Rui came in.

Hearing Li Rui's voice, Yuzhi put down her book, walked out from behind the screen, and looked up at Li Rui: "Are you sure you're a Guizhen believer from the Northwest?"

Li Rui nodded, and said: "They are very vigilant, and they are all dressed in civilian clothes. It is impossible to tell from the clothes that they are Guizhen believers!"

Lin Jia sneered, and said, "It's the easiest way to identify them, just throw meat at them, and when Guizhen believers see the meat, they want to set themselves on fire!"

Except for false followers like Han Qing!

Li Rui was nervous at first, but when Lin Jiayi told him, he couldn't help but relax a little, and hurriedly said, "I'm too nervous!"

Guizhen believers are never afraid of death because of the teachings of Guizhen, and they will risk their lives for a small conflict with the Han people, so everyone is afraid.

Your Excellency is worthy of being the one who wiped out hundreds of thousands of Guizhen believers. He is not afraid of Guizhen believers who are feared by everyone.

Yuzhi pondered for a moment, then said: "Ajia, don't underestimate the enemy!"

Lin Jia took a look at Yuzhi, and saw Yuzhi's small face was crystal clear and white in the bright light, her eyebrows were picturesque, and a pair of black eyes were looking at her seriously,

He immediately ordered Li Rui: "Go and tell Yu Yiwei, and do your best to investigate the incident of Guizhen believers entering Beijing!"

Li Rui answered "Yes" and hurried out.

Yuzhi walked to Lin Jia's side and said in a low voice: "Ajia, the person Guizhen believers hate the most is you, you have to be careful!"

Lin Jia let out a "hmm", and suddenly stretched out her arms to embrace Yuzhi.

Yu Zhi stuck to her bosom, smelling the clear and pleasant youthful breath on Lin Jia, her heart was full of warmth.

Jackdaw closely followed Bai Yuming as he walked towards the night market. Seeing that he was about to reach the Lu's Bun Shop, he suddenly whispered: "My lord, you are in the ice and snow shop in front!"

Now it is the end of summer and early autumn, and there are still many ice and snow shops in the night market in Beijing, selling sesame drink powder, crystal soap, pear ice, ice and snow cold yuanzi, raw water papaya, licorice ice and snow cold water, and lychee paste Waiting for ice and snow desserts.

Bai Yuming hesitated for a moment, then raised his leg and walked over.

Jackdaw followed him closely and also walked over.

Arriving at Zhao Ji's ice and snow shop in front, Bai Yuming stopped in his tracks, and ordered the Jackdaw who followed him: "Go and see if Zhao Ji has crystal soap and ice and snow cold yuanzi, buy some, the women at home love to eat them!"

Hearing Bai Yuming's voice, the two girls standing in the shop turned their heads and looked over. One of them was particularly beautiful, with a slender figure, black hair like clouds, apricot eyes and a cherry mouth, and it was Yu Mingyue.

The other is Zhuyu, Yu Mingyue's maid.

Yu Mingyue did not expect to meet Bai Tanhua here, her clear apricot core eyes were full of surprise, she took a deep look at Bai Yuming, and bowed her knees.

According to Li Rui's instructions, Bai Yuming took a look at Yu Mingyue, then lowered his eyes, and cupped his hands.

Yu Mingyue turned around with a blushing face, and looked down at the clerk of Ji Bingxue shop who was packing: "Another serving of sesame drink powder!"

The guy agreed, and called another person out to entertain the Jackdaw who had already walked over.

A guy in Tsing Yi ran out and said with a smile: "My little brother, which one do you want? Do you want to eat it in a small shop or pack it?"

Jackdaw smiled and said, "Crystal Zao'er and Bingxue Leng Yuanzi each need five copies!"

He had secretly protected Yuzhi, and knew that Yuzhi loved ice and snow sweets, so he asked for so much.

Zhuyu laughed when she heard that, and looked at Jackdaw: "I said, how many maids are there in your house? Can you finish eating five servings?"

Yu Mingyue also looked over, her heart pounding: I wonder if Bai Tanhua is married?Is the female relative he mentioned his wife?

Bai Yuming took a step forward, his voice was clear and pleasant, with a lingering lingering tone: "Sister She loves to eat ice and snow sweets, and the rest will be given to the maids around her!"

Yu Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief, raised her eyes to look at Bai Yuming, then lowered her head again.

Bai Yuming lowered his eyes, looking at his nose and heart, not at people.

At this moment, the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion came with a servant: "Miss, Madam has already come out from Chunliu Tower, and is waiting for you!"

Yu Mingyue left with the housekeeper.

After walking a few steps, she couldn't help looking over again, and found that the handsome young man in white in the shadow of the lamp was also looking at her, her eyes met, her heart was pounding, she hurriedly quickened her pace, and walked towards the park that stopped not far away. carriage.

Bai Yuming couldn't tell what it was like, so he waited there silently. When Jackdaw came out with five white porcelain jars wrapped in oil paper in each hand, he took two and walked out.

Zhao Ji's assistant behind him is still explaining: "Young master, you don't need to send the jar after you use it, Zhao Ji will give you the jar!"

The study outside was brightly lit, and bugs were buzzing and buzzing outside the lighted screen window.

Alan stood in the corridor with his bodyguard in full armor.

Lin Jia is sitting behind the desk writing a letter.

This letter is very important, and he must write it himself.

Yu Zhi stood aside and rubbed ink for him.

At this moment, Li Rui's voice came from outside: "My lord, Auntie, it's me!"

Li Rui came in quickly, like Avalokitesvara, with several oiled paper bags in each hand.

Yu Zhi greeted her with a smile: "Li Rui, what are you doing?"

Li Rui held back his laughter and said, "Master Bai went to the Zhuquemen Night Market, and bought you ice and snow sweets when he came back!"

When Yu Zhi heard this, she couldn't help salivating, but after thinking about it, she looked at Lin Jia again: "Ajia, can I eat ice and snow?"

She has very little milk, and now A Yin mostly sucks the nanny's milk, but occasionally she also eats her milk, Yuzhi is worried that she can't eat ice and snow because of breastfeeding.

Lin Jia thought for a while, and said, "It's just a matter of weaning!"

Li Rui stood aside with his eyes downcast, and couldn't help interjecting: "It's getting colder now, weaning is the best time, but you have to ask a female doctor to keep an eye on it all the time to avoid inflammation!"

Lin Jia: "..."

Yuzhi: "..."

Li Rui realized that he had said too much, so he immediately put oil on the soles of his feet, and found a reason to retreat.

As soon as he arrived at the corridor, he heard Yuzhi's crisp laughter from inside: "This Li Rui, he knows everything! Hahaha!"

Hearing this, the corners of Li Rui's mouth couldn't help but curl up - he knows everything and knows everything, so he can serve her and be with her all his life!

Mrs. Zhuang returned to the inner courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion and found her husband Yu Yizhou in her room. She couldn't help being a little surprised: "Today is 28, why is the master in my room?"

Since she turned 30, except for the fifteenth of every month, Yu Yizhou hardly came to her room, and stayed with several young concubines.

Wearing casual clothes, Yu Yizhou walked back and forth in the bright room with his hands behind his back for a while, then said: "Your Majesty has brought Lin Jia's eldest son, Lin Yin, into the palace!"

Mrs. Zhuang looked contemptuous: "It means that Lin Jia has no sons. When Lin Jia marries his wife and gives birth to a son, the eldest son born to a concubine can die wherever he likes. Who cares!"

Yu Yizhou sighed and said: "Although the distinction between concubine and concubine is clear, what I am worried about is that Lin Jia has always refused to marry a wife, so his only concubine, Yushi, is no different from his concubine. He will also become Lin Jia's heir!"

After hearing the words, Mrs. Zhuang realized something was wrong, and hurriedly said, "Master, what happened?"

Yu Yizhou sighed, and said: "I went to see Your Majesty in Yutang Palace today, His Majesty is holding Lin Jia's eldest son, Lin Yin, in the sun on the porch, and next to him are Lin Yin's nanny, female doctor, maids and servants. , How can Your Majesty look like a generation of Mingjun? He is obviously a rich man in the countryside with grandsons and everything!"

His nose wrinkled: "But Your Majesty is only in his 40s!"

Knowing that Yu Yizhou hadn't finished speaking, Zhuang looked at him intently.

Yu Yizhou looked at Mrs. Zhuang, knowing that Mrs. Zhuang was about to be disappointed: "Your Majesty said, the little emperor's grandson is too young, Lin Jia will marry a wife when the little emperor's grandson turns three years old!"

Mrs. Zhuang was furious, picked up the jade porcelain cup from the previous dynasty on the red sandalwood carved high table at hand, threw it on the ground forcefully, and said angrily: "What does the young emperor's grandson have to do with Lin Jia's marriage? I'm so mad! "

She knew in her heart that this was just an excuse for Lin Jia's refusal to marry a wife. It was because Lin Jia had soft ears and listened to that bitch Yushi's words!
After a while, Mrs. Zhuang said slowly: "My lord, this Mrs. Yu can't stay!"

Yu Yizhou raised his eyes and looked over.

Mrs. Zhuang said: "My lord, all civil servants listen to you. As long as you open your mouth, Lin Jia's decree will not come out of the cabinet; Mrs. Yu's side, leave it to me! Let's do it together. When Mrs. Yu is gone, if you don't believe Lin Jia or Marry our Mingyue!"

Yu Yizhou pondered for a long time, and then said: "Be careful, don't give away your feet!"

Mrs. Zhuang sneered, and said: "I heard people say that there is a guild in the city that collects money to kill people, and there are all Guizhen believers who don't want to die. Even if they kill Mrs. Yu, Lin Jia will only think that they are Guizhen believers looking for revenge. , won’t think of us!”

Yu Yizhou nodded and said: "In that case, you should rest earlier!"

He left Mingjian with broken porcelain all over the floor, and went to the small courtyard where his concubine Mrs. Zhang lived.

Mrs. Zhuang sat there blankly, the cold lamp was only a shadow, and the ground was covered with broken pieces of wet tea leaves.

She closed her eyes for a moment, then opened them and said, "Go and call the housekeeper!"

In the blink of an eye, it was August.

On this day, Yuzhi took Lin Yin out of Lin's mansion in a Qingjin Shixiang car, and headed towards the west gate.

Li Rui and Jackdaw rode horses on both sides of Yuzhi's carriage, one on the left and the other on the right. There were Lin's personal guards at the front and back, and a group of people marched through the street.

A young man dressed as a Taoist priest walked over and looked over as he passed the Yuzhi carriage.

At this time, a gust of wind lifted the curtain on the car window. At that moment, the young Taoist clearly saw a beautiful young woman sitting inside, it was Yuzhi.

Yuzhi is holding a young child in her arms, her face is facing the direction of the Taoist priest, she seems to be smiling, her big eyes are shining brightly, there is a blush on her crystal white face, her petal-like lips are slightly parted, revealing Snow white teeth...

The young Taoist wanted to look again, but the curtain had already been drawn down, completely covering the inside.

The Taoist strode in the opposite direction, his eyes narrowed slightly, thick long eyelashes covered his deep eyes, and the corners of his bright red lips were raised up—I, Han Qing, am back again!
