Queen's Development

Chapter 299
In Beijing at the end of February, the peach blossoms had just bloomed, and the wind was still waiting for the chill, but the winter jasmine had already withered, and the apricot and cherry blossoms began to bloom, turning the entire capital into a snow-white and pink world.

The sun was shining today, and Emperor Yongtai specially brought Ayin to meet Prime Minister Yu Yizhou, Hubu Shangshu Han Chaozong and other close officials in the Yutang Hall, planning to choose a teacher for Ayin.

These few court officials all understood Emperor Yongtai's thoughts, so they were all carefully observing the five-year-old grandson of the emperor.

The little emperor's grandson was born very well. Although he was only five years old, he was still a child with baby fat, but he had sculpted eyebrows, phoenix eyes and red lips, very much like his father, the crown prince Lin Jia. He would grow into a handsome and handsome boy in the future.

What's even better is that the little Huangsun's skin is rosy, her phoenix eyes are bright and clear, and she is full of vitality. In the future, she will not be sick and weak like Lin Jia, but it will be a blessing for the great Zhou community.

Yu Yizhou and the others were satisfied in their hearts, and they naturally brought out what was said inside and outside. Emperor Yongtai was satisfied when he heard it, and smiled with squinted eyes while holding the little emperor's grandson.

Just as they were talking lively, Yang Wen suddenly came in and reported: "Your Majesty, the empress is asking to see you!"

Emperor Yongtai was about to speak, when the words that Yuzhi hesitated to say a few days ago when he was about to take away Ayin suddenly appeared in his mind-"I don't know the queen. Ayin him."

Thinking of this, Emperor Yongtai immediately said: "I have foreign ministers here, tomorrow I will go to Funing Hall to visit the queen!"

Hearing this, Yang Wen answered "yes" and quickly retreated.

He is from Lin Jia, so naturally he won't explain much to Empress Jiang.

After becoming a country, she was rejected by the emperor, and even the emperor's bedroom was not allowed to enter. Empress Jiang seemed to be nailed there all of a sudden, with a dejected look on her fat and powdery face.

Qingming hurriedly supported her, and looked up at the expressionless Yang Wen: "Eunuch Yang, please! The Empress has something urgent to tell Her Majesty!"

She calmed down, let go of Empress Jiang, walked up to Yang Wen, looked up at Yang Wen, smiled charmingly, reached out to hold Yang Wen's hand, and said softly: "Eunuch Yang, this is a little wish from this servant—— "

Now although the chief eunuch of Yutang Palace has become Li Xiuzhen, Yang Wen is still the chief eunuch of the imperial study, and is deeply favored by Emperor Yongtai. Now, she has no choice but to be a living doctor and come to ask Yang Wen.

Yang Wen took a step back suddenly, and a stack of bank notes flew out, floating on the ground.

All the people present were stunned for a moment - the female officer in charge of the Queen's Palace actually bribed Eunuch Yang in public!
Empress Jiang had come to her senses at this time, and immediately said with a smile: "Qingming, why are you so careless, why don't you put the banknote in your sleeve pocket? I have to make up for it with private money!"

Qingming has served Empress Jiang for many years, and cooperated with her quite tacitly. He immediately smiled and told the maids and eunuchs who followed him: "Hurry up and pick it up. Do you really want me to subsidize the private money and give you monthly silver?"

The maids and eunuchs came to their senses, and hurried forward to pick up the banknotes scattered on the ground.

Back to Funing Hall, Empress Jiang went straight into the bedroom.

Seeing this, Li Chun hurriedly followed in with two court ladies: "Empress Empress, I will serve you and take off your big clothes first!"

Empress Jiang glanced at her indifferently, and said: "Stay in Qingming, the rest of you should leave!"

Li Chun paused, answered "yes", and led everyone back down.

Seeing the curtain fall, Empress Jiang leaned on the small kang table and said: "Qingming, you go to Jiang's mansion to give the reward for the Si Festival."

Qingming stared at Queen Jiang with burning eyes, waiting for Queen Jiang's order.

Empress Jiang sighed, and said slowly: "Forget it, there is a pair of white jade chess in the warehouse, someone took it out, and put it in the rewards of the Shangsi Festival, just say that it is a game that I rewarded dad, my dad will understand .”

It's just a matter of losing the pawn to protect the handsome, dad will understand.

All the people who were placed in the Prince's Mansion have been cleared out, and now Lin Jia holds Jiang's handle and presses her every step of the way. If she wants to protect Jiang's prosperity and keep her queen position, there must be someone in Jiang's Mansion. People who matter have come forward to bear these charges.

Qingming answered "yes" and went to make arrangements.

Lin Jia's sedan chair stopped in front of the palace gate, and he didn't get out of the sedan chair until Ding Heyun, Qing Qing of Dali Temple, came over.

When passing the cabinet, Lin Jia was stopped by Liang Yongming, Secretary of the Ministry of War, and Wang Yizhen, the privy envoy: "Your Highness, something big happened in the southwest!"

Lin Jia stopped and stared at Wang Yizhen with phoenix eyes: "What's the matter?"

Minister of the Ministry of War Liang Yongming and Privy Envoy Wang Yizhen immediately looked at Ding Heyun beside Lin Jia with distressed expressions on their faces.

Lin Jia made a decisive decision and asked Ding Heyun to take people to see Emperor Yongtai, and then he took Liang Yongming, Minister of the Ministry of War, and Wang Yizhen, the privy envoy, to the imperial study.

After entering the imperial study, Lin Jia asked Liang Yongming and Wang Yizhen, "What happened in the southwest?"

Wang Yizhen cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, just got the news that the whole country of Dali has converted to Guizhen Sect!"

When Lin Jia heard the words, her phoenix eyes, which had been as calm as water, suddenly became sharp: "Is the news true?"

Lin Jia saw Wang Yizhen in such a way, he couldn't help but shudder, and immediately said: "Your Highness, I have collected information from all parties, so I dare to come to see you!"

Lin Jia thought for a moment, and said: "Didn't we plan it early? Since Dali has already taken refuge in Xixia, let's start!"

The position of Dali is extremely important, but the king of Dali has been secretly colluding with Xixia. Lin Jia has long wanted to annex Dali, but Dali has always established a country based on Buddhism and loves peace. Adding fuel to the flames, I didn't expect that after only three years of operation, Dali would fall into the embrace of Guizhenjiao!
He picked up the teacup and took a sip, looked at Liang Yongming and said in a deep voice, "Liang Yongming, you took my soldier talisman and asked Xu Zhichun from Dianzhou to lead the army to the border of Dali!"

Liang Yongming participated in Lin Jia's plan and immediately answered "yes".

Lin Jia's face was still a little pale, but his eyes were black and clear. He looked at Wang Yizhen: "Wang Yizhen, let us in Dali start to use the slogan 'Qing Jun's side, chase away cults', and when Xu Zhichun enters Dali, we will fight with you." Xu Zhichun should cooperate with the outside!"

Wang Yizhen answered "Yes" in a deep voice.

In order to get Dali, Emperor Yongtai and Lin Jia have been in business for three years and have been waiting for an opportunity. Unexpectedly, Dali handed over the knife himself.

Liang Yongming and Wang Yizhen bid farewell and left.

Lin Jia leaned back in the chair, closed her eyes and rested for a while.

Seeing that his face was pale, Li Rui couldn't help worrying, so he said softly, "Your Highness, are you still going to Yutang Hall?"

Lin Jia still had her eyes closed, and said in a light voice, "No, Ding and Yun can just go."

He knew clearly in his heart that Emperor Yongtai's imperial skills were inseparable from the word "check and balance". Although he trusted him and entrusted the army to him, he refused to let go of government affairs. The Jiang family was only used by Emperor Yongtai. To check and balance his pawns, without Jiang, there are others.

Now that the Jiang family is very useful, Emperor Yongtai will not let go easily, but according to Emperor Yongtai's temperament, if the Jiang family dies, it will accumulate over time, and there will always be a day when the final account will be settled. At that time, the entire Jiang family will I'm afraid it's hard to keep it safe, except for Jiang's third wife who has taken refuge in him.
Li Rui recalled Yuzhi's explanation, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, your body has not fully recovered, why don't you go back to the Prince's Mansion to rest!"

In the past few days, Yuzhi had told him to take good care of His Royal Highness, so he naturally put his heart into it.

Lin Jia opened his eyes and thought of Yu Zhi, with a smile in his eyes: "I'm waiting for a news here, and when I get the news, I'll go back!"

Before leaving the house, Yu Zhi also urged him to stop getting tired and return home after finishing his work.

Li Rui thought for a while and said, "Your Highness, why don't you rest on the couch for a while?"

Lin Jia was so kind, she really helped Li Rui into the back room, and fell asleep on the couch.

An hour later, Lin Jia got the news he was waiting for—Jiang Shuzhen, the second master of the Jiang family, committed suicide in fear of crime, leaving a suicide note admitting that he had feuded with Lin Jia because of trivial matters, so he sent someone to poison the crown prince Lin Jia.

Lin Jia was woken up by Li Rui, she sat there blankly, got up after a while and said, "Go home!"

Jiang's eldest family and the second family have always been close, and the second uncle Jiang Shuzhen has been closely following the eldest uncle Jiang Shulin, but unexpectedly became a sacrificed chess piece.
This is politics.

But Lin Jia still felt cold.

Li Rui helped him put on the cloak, but Lin Jia was still shivering from the cold.

He supported Li Rui, and said softly, "Go home, Yuzhi is waiting for me!"

Yuzhi has been taking care of Lin Jia these days, ignoring Ting Lan and Wan'er, feeling a little guilty in her heart. Seeing that the sun is shining today, she asked Nanny Dong and Nanny Shen to bring Ting Lan and Wan'er to play in the courtyard, while she let people let them go. I bought an armchair, sat in the armchair and watched them play.

Now Wan'er has grown taller and fatter, and her personality is more lively than before. Seeing Yuzhi sitting next to her, she asked the maid to help her break an apricot flower, held it in her hand and walked over, saying softly : "Mother, look at this apricot blossom!"

Yuzhi adopted her and was her adoptive mother, so she always followed Ting Lan to call Yuzhi her mother.

Yuzhi found that Wan'er looked more and more like her biological father Wang Qingyu, with almond eyes and high nose, more and more beautiful, so she laughed and said: "This apricot flower is very beautiful!"

Wan'er tentatively leaned into Yuzhi's arms, and handed the apricot flower to Yuzhi: "Mother, I gave it to you!"

Yuzhi held the apricot blossom and smiled slightly: "Thank you, Wan'er!"

Ting Lan watched from the side, envious in her heart, but refused to speak, and stood there watching helplessly.

Seeing her, Yuzhi hurriedly waved: "Ting Lan, come to mother!"

When Ting Lan saw her, she was both surprised and happy, she ran over with a smile and leaned into Yuzhi's arms.

Wan'er saw that Ting Lan was also coming, and felt that it was too crowded. She felt a little disgusted with Ting Lan, so she smiled and said, "Mother, let me tell you a secret!"

Yuzhi smiled and said, "What secret?"

Wan'er glanced at Ting Lan and said, "Mother, Ting Lan wet the bed again last night!"

When Ting Lan heard this, she looked at Yu Zhi with shame and anger, with tears in her big eyes: "Mother, Ting Lan. It wasn't on purpose."

She was too thirsty before going to bed, drank a little too much water, and unexpectedly wetted the bed.

Yuzhi caressed Ting Lan's head gently with her eyes, and said softly: "Did Ting Lan drink too much water last night? From now on, just don't drink so much water before going to bed!"

Ting Lan nodded repeatedly with tears in her eyes: "Mom, I understand!"

Yuzhi wiped away her tears carefully, and comforted her softly for a while, then ordered the nanny to take Ting Lan away to play.

After Ting Lan left, Yu Zhi looked at Wan'er: "Wan'er, think about it now, what did you do wrong?"

Wan'er was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she stood there with her head down, crying too.

Yu Zhi was unmoved, and told the eloquent Mint: "Take her down, tell her what's wrong, and if she understands, then bring her to see me!"

Mint answered "yes" cleverly, and took Wan'er's hand to the apricot blossom forest.

Not long after, Wan'er sobbed and followed Mint over.

She looked at Yuzhi with tears in her eyes, and bowed her knees and saluted: "Mother, Wan'er knows she's wrong, Wan'er shouldn't have told anyone about sister Ting Lan's secret."

Only then was Yuzhi satisfied, and said softly: "You have to remember, a real lady will not spread other people's secrets, especially her own sister's secrets!"

Wan'er answered "Yes", leaned into Yuzhi's arms again, and acted like a baby with tears in her eyes: "Mother, Wan'er is so sad, please wipe Wan'er's tears"

After coaxing Tinglan and Wan'er, Yuzhi felt a little tired, so she asked the nanny and maid to watch them, and helped Han Lin back to her room.

After sitting down on the Luohan bed in Mingjian, Yuzhi leaned on the small kang table with one hand supporting her in a daze.

Han Lin massaged her shoulders.

Mint knelt on the footrest, massaging Yuzhi's swollen legs.

Yuzhi thought for a while, and then said softly: "Han Lin, maybe I'm really biased. When I look at A Yin and Naya, I think their brother and sister have good personalities and are really cute, but I will I think Ting Lan is weak, and Wan'er is cunning."

"You are good enough!" Han Lin laughed, "The prince and princess are really sweet!"

Thinking of the loveliness of Ayin and Naya, her smile became brighter, and she began to talk to Yuzhi in detail.

After hearing this, Yu Zhi's eyes were full of smiles, and she couldn't help boasting: "Ayin and Naya have really inherited the advantages of me and Ajia!"

After thinking for a while, she ordered Mint again: "You send the pair of red gold phoenix hairpins sent by Yueyibao Tower to Mrs. Dong and Mrs. Shen, and say I rewarded them, and let them take good care of Ting Lan and Wan'er. I have already hired Li Helan, a well-known female teacher in the capital, from now on, the two of them will go to school every day like Ah Yin!"

Mint answered "yes" and went to pass on the message.

Yuzhi thought of Naya who was far away in Xixia, and felt empty.

At this moment, Jingjie reported outside: "Qi to Concubine Liang, Your Highness is back!"

Hearing this, Yuzhi hurriedly ordered Dill: "Go to the Nuan Pavilion and bring over the medicinal soup for His Highness!"

Lin Jia was walking well and everything was normal, but when he saw Yuzhi, he began to feel sorry for himself: "Yuzhi, I still feel a little uncomfortable."

After hearing this, Yu Zhi was filled with pity, hurriedly helped Lin Jia into the open room, directed the servant girl to clean Lin Jia's hands, and then took the hot towel to wipe Lin Jia's face herself.

Lin Jia sat on the Luohan bed, closed his eyes and looked up to accept Yuzhi's care. The fragrance of roses from Yuzhi lingered in his nose, and all the ailments seemed to disappear at once. He was intoxicated in Yuzhi's body fragrance.

Yuzhi stood in front of Lin Jia, holding Lin Jia's face in one hand, wiping it carefully with a hot towel in the other, and said: "Ajia, drink the medicinal soup in a while, rest for a while, and then start to use the evening medicine. Dinner, I'll take you for a walk after dinner—Mr. Liu told you to keep the habit of walking after dinner, at least half an hour a day!"

Lin Jia obediently said "Yes", very obedient.

Seeing him so obedient, Yuzhi felt sweet in her heart, leaned over and kissed Lin Jia on the lips: "So obedient!"

Lin Jiajun blushed slightly, feeling ashamed to see others, so he simply buried his face in Yuzhi's arms.

Seeing this, Han Lin and other maids hurriedly smiled and retreated.

After all the maids had gone out, Lin Jia whispered: "Yu Zhi, I feel a little uncomfortable, please give me a massage."

Yu Zhi fully agreed: "After you drink the medicinal soup, I will give you a full body massage!"

Lin Jia naturally agreed.

Yuzhi's hand was strong, Lin Jia was very comfortable pressing it, and she was sweating all over.

Seeing that Lin Jia was sweating, Yu Zhi breathed a sigh of relief—Mr. Liu said that after drinking the medicinal soup, no matter what method you use, you must make His Highness sweat. Only when you sweat can the toxins in your body be released. !

She fed Lin Jia another cup of warm water, and then said: "Ajia, let's go out for dinner, take a medicinal bath before going to bed, and then take a bath!"

Lin Jia sat up and suddenly hugged Yuzhi tightly.

I have been with Yuzhi for nine years, and in nine years, Yuzhi has already become his flesh and blood.
After a while, Lin Jiajun blushed and let go of Yuzhi - for some reason, he would react when he smelled Yuzhi's body.

In order to divert her attention, Lin Jia whispered: "Yu Zhi, I have already told the Dazong Main Court to enshrine Jin Xiuzhu as his wife and record it in the imperial jade certificate. You will see Jin female doctor tomorrow and sell this favor to her."

Yuzhi agreed, glanced at Lin Jia's bulging area, and resisted the idea of ​​pinching and kneading——Lin Jia can't be indulged anymore!
