Chapter 56
Qin Xuanling looked at her leisurely: "Shazhou? The beauty smiles? Xi'er means that Concubine Hui ruined your spring flower feast?"
Qin Xi denied without thinking, "How is it possible? Concubine Hui is not a brainless idiot. She was the princess who was sent to show goodwill when Shazhou surrendered to Dashun. The safety of the entire Shazhou people was in her mind. Why did she die?"
In her opinion, Concubine Hui has been a peaceful and steady person for so many years. She is free and only interested in food. She thinks about how to make food all day long. She is much plump and fatter than when she first entered the palace.
What kind of harm can such a person have?
When Qin Xuanling heard this, he curled up the corners of his lips and smiled, threw down the chess piece in his hand, and asked tentatively, "Who is behind the scenes?"
Qin Xi sat beside Qin Xuanling, dragging her chin with her slender fingers, and she looked speechless, "Brother, if I know, would I have to come to you?"
Well...it seems that there is no doubt about it yet.
The smile on Qin Xuanling's face became more gentle, "Since that's the case, I will check it for you!"
"This is almost the same!" Qin Xi was finally satisfied.
Qin Xuanling held up the wine pot and placed it aside, twisted the chess pieces on the table one by one, fiddling with his chess game again.
Seeing this, Qin Xi turned to put down his fingers and helped him to tick the chess pieces on the table without hesitation, but his face looked like he was waiting for Qin Xuanling to ask.
Qin Xuanling always pretended not to see it.
Finally, Qin Xi couldn't help it anymore. She threw down the chess piece and said carefully, "Brother, do you know? At the Spring Flower Banquet today, the eldest lady of the Yun family was not only outstanding in style, but also wrote a poem in public, with every sentence of the pearl, which was very talented. Junze, the future crown princess, is really amazing."
Qin Xuanling's hand movements stopped and then returned to normal, "Future Crown Princess? How did I remember the last time that the Imperial Heavenly Supervisor said that God's will is hard to violate."
Qin Xi's eyelids twitched when he heard that. When the Imperial Heaven Supervisor said that, Miss Yun wanted to break the engagement with the prince...
Brother, can you really fall in love with the eldest lady of the Yun family?
She couldn't help but look up at Qin Xuanling carefully, as if she wanted to see some flaws from his expression.
The emperor's brother has always been handsome and has long been married, but because of his strange illness and the marriage is difficult to discuss, the emperor's brother himself has no idea, so he just let it go.
Originally, it was something he deserved to be happy about after finally falling in love with a girl.
But... Qin Xi said carefully, "That is the future niece-in-law..."
Qin Xuanling glanced at Qin Xi, lowered his head and stared at the soft white chess piece on his fingertips, his expression softer than the sunset: "It won't be there soon."
Qin Xi: "..."
I always feel that my emperor brother, speaking of this eldest lady Yun, seemed to have a little bit of it... she was so lustful that she was so confused.
She wanted to say something else, but the emperor's brother always had his ideas, and no one could stop him from doing anything. She, the younger sister, was no exception. She had to turn the topic back to herself, "Then the emperor, go and check the spring flower banquet quickly!"
Qin Xuanling nodded, and did not forget to explain, "My mother is not allowed to talk nonsense."
"make a deal."
Qin Xuanling looked at Qin Xi's back as he left, and the gentleness in his eyes disappeared little by little.
"Amo, go find a few people and make a big feast in Chang'an City about today's spring flowers. Also, I also sent a message to the Northwest Magistrate, saying that the drought was too great to hide, and he still had a way out for his life after reporting earlier."
He remembered clearly that in the 37th year of Jiazheng, there was a severe drought in the northwest and there was no harvest of crop particles.
The northwest magistrate Song Zhang was afraid of taking responsibility and kept this matter from the court. When he couldn't hide it, he was already starved and even a large number of refugees flocked to Chang'an. There were still many people who took the opportunity to cause trouble. The court took a lot of effort to calm down.
As for the money for disaster relief...
Concubine Jing smashed Xi'er's place, so let the Wei family pay it back.
——
All kinds of news about the spring flower feast grow when the wind blows, fermenting overnight, and sending it to thousands of households with the wind.
The prince Qin Junze was in the Eastern Palace and his face turned pale as he listened to his subordinates' reports.
He originally wanted to calm the matter down quietly, even if he suffered a loss, he could no longer ruin his image in the eyes of his father.
But somehow, this matter was long when the wind came, and in the blink of an eye, it became known to the whole city.
In the Eastern Palace, before dawn, a large group of advisers had gathered to make suggestions for the prince.
"Your Highness, for the sake of this plan, you should enter the palace as soon as possible and sue the emperor fiercely! The second prince is so virtuous, the emperor will definitely comfort you!"
"After this matter, the Crown Prince must remember to clear himself. All the mistakes are the second prince's faults. No matter how bad things are, it is also the problem of drinking..."
"......Your Highness, the Empress, quietly sent you a message, asking you not to ignore the third prince. You will not be able to fight with the second prince, and let others benefit in vain."
"I understand." Qin Junze had a dark face and kept the opinions of the advisers in his heart. He walked out of the Eastern Palace in the government, walked into the imperial study.
The second prince was kneeling on the ground, and Qin Cang sat in the high hall, his face was also very bad.
Qin Junze's voice and expression are harsh,
"Father, please make the decision for your son! Junhua takes advantage of his son's drunkenness to do such a ruthless thing. Not only does he completely leave his brothers, friends and respect behind his heart, but he is also sorry for his father's daily teachings. As the prince of Dashun, his majesty is ruined. How can he face civil and military officials in the future? Please punish Junhua heavily!"
When the second prince heard this, he did not refute it, and immediately applied the trick that Concubine Jing taught him.
He cried with tears in his nose:
"Father, Father, please punish me. It's all bad things. My sons shouldn't be drunk... My sons don't know when the crown prince will come into my son's wing, but my sons shouldn't be disrespectful to the crown prince... Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo
Anyway, my mother said that as long as I admit my mistakes and recognize them positively, my father will not blame him.
Qin Junze's resentment froze on his face and turned into a full of surprise. This second son has always been dull, why has he suddenly learned the ability to cry and steal the world?
The emperor looked at the two sons in anger.
But I have to say that Concubine Jing’s strategy is still effective. He did not scold the second prince, but instead grasped another key point.
