In Fuyuan Palace, Concubine Jiao Xian was dressed in palace attire with exquisite makeup. Her smile as she watched the fifth prince go out has not yet dissipated.
Eunuch Liang shook his head secretly. No wonder the Thirteenth Prince was angry and always had a stern attitude toward the Thirteenth Prince!
However, Eunuch Liang joked with a smile on his face:
"Your Majesty, Your Highness, the fifth prince, is becoming more and more promising. At such a young age, he is valued by Lord Long Live and is entrusted with such important matters. This is all due to your good teaching!"
The fifth prince, Zhou Chendong, was sent to assist Pei Qianye, the Minister of Rites, in presiding over the Autumn Examination.
Concubine Jiao Xian showed a trace of relief on her face, nodded and said:
"Dong'er has always been smart, diligent and studious. It was only a matter of time before he was appreciated by Long Live."
Eunuch Liang nodded in agreement, but in his heart, he hoped that he could sincerely assist or take care of the Thirteenth Prince in the future.
Concubine Jiao Xian suddenly remembered Chen Guogong's words and became a little anxious and said,
"Chen Guogong said that the Ji family girls have secrets? How about I bring them into the palace and slowly think about them?"
At the beginning, in order to appease the Duke Li's government and to control Ji Kui, someone suggested that Ji Kui be raised by the concubine.
However, Concubine Jiao Xian and Duke Chen felt that something was wrong at that time. Duke Li's wife and Ji Min's grandmother had a close relationship with the Queen Mother, Concubine Lu.
Today's Queen Nangong Ju's natal family has also been with Duke Li's Mansion for some time, and they have frequent contacts.
Ji Min is living in the palace. If he gets the Sacred Heart and is promised to any prince by long live, wouldn't this be even more powerful for the Duke of Li and the Li family army? Is it even harder to suppress and deal with?
No, we must not let Ji Min show his face in front of the Holy Master.
As a result, the inside and outside cooperated, and rumors spread that Ji Nin's fate was unfavorable.
In Duke Li's Mansion, Duke Li and his son were sick, the concubine in the palace was sick, and everyone who had anything to do with her, or was about to get involved with her, was reeling with illness. Who else could she not have conquered?
Now, Concubine Jiao Xian heard that Ji Min was useful and wanted to bring Ji Min to the palace again.
Eunuch Liang cannot agree to anything!
According to Concubine Jiao Xian's temper, Ji Min entered the palace, and if she was not careful, she would be in danger!
Just die as a palace maid or a concubine, that's all.
First, Concubine Jiao Xian was ruthless and clean. Even if she suspected Concubine Jiao Xian, there was no evidence.
Secondly, Concubine Jiao Xian was one of the four concubines after all. No one dared to cause trouble for Concubine Jiao Xian. Even Concubine Qin had to suffer the disadvantage of being dumb.
But Ji Min is different. Apart from Li Jiajun, Chen Guogong's words now seem to have other and greater values for this little girl.
Once Concubine Jiao Xian attacks Ji Min, doesn't it mean that she will make herself into a target for everyone to shoot at?
She is just a crazy woman, but the key is that when she is crazy, the first person to be unlucky is the Thirteenth Prince.
If you can't let the son take advantage of the mother, that's all. How can he be implicated in a crime again?
The great situation that was managed with great difficulty for the Thirteenth Prince cannot be ruined like this!
Eunuch Liang nodded and shook his head:
"Your Majesty is right! However, this old slave is a little unworthy of your Majesty. You have worked so hard and done everything, but Chen Guogong can't even handle this little thing!"
Concubine Jiao Xian snorted dissatisfiedly and said:
"Ever since he became Chen Guogong and acted as the agent of the Ministry of War, he has started to ignore me! That's all, let him work hard first!"
There is currently no suitable opportunity for Ji Min to enter the palace.
Eunuch Liang watched carefully as Concubine Jiao Xian's brows relaxed, but she still did not completely let go of the idea.
However, he could not say anything more. Concubine Jiao Xian was irritable and suspicious.
Often a road must run to the dark side, no matter how high the cost!
For example, she must raise the fifth prince...
But it was not impossible, a glimmer of light flashed in Eunuch Liang's eyes.
In just ten days, Ji Jun and Ji Min learned a little bit about the agricultural products market in Beijing, collected a lot of information, and planned to screen and compile information one by one. Carry out in-depth research and planning.
Not long after arriving at "Good Neighbor", an unexpected guest came!
Ji Min's aunt, Mrs. Wang, the crown prince's wife in Duke Li's Mansion, wants to meet the Ji sisters.
Wang's clothes today are rich and noble, but not ostentatious.
When he saw Ji Jun and Ji Min, he smiled kindly and looked very graceful and dignified.
However, Ji Jun still caught a hint of disdain and lingering contempt in her eyes.
The two of them saluted Mr. Wang.
Wang pretended to smile kindly and said,
"In fact, I like you two girls from the bottom of my heart. When I lived in our Duke Li Li's mansion, I always treated you as my own girls. Now that we are far away, you don't often see me. When we return to the Duke's mansion, we are all in trouble!"
Grandma Lu also smiled and said:
"Yes, you two cousins, you see that your food and clothing expenses are almost the same as our Miss Fanling. Others don't know it, but you know it! For this reason, who among outsiders would not praise Madam for her virtuousness? !”
Ji Min lowered his head and said nothing, showing no signs of happiness or anger.
Ji Jun thought to himself, we are not trying to eat your Wang family in Duke Li's Mansion! What Ni'er ate was her grandfather's and her uncle's.
As for me, even though I am Ni'er's tail, I can't be considered eating and drinking from you.
Just staying in your Duke Li's mansion for a few days, eating and drinking the same as Li Fanling, we recognized and thanked you, but you lied to children by saying that you treat us like your own girls!
Seeing that the two of them were silent, Wang said again,
"Ordinarily, I want to keep you by my side. But there is no way. The Holy Emperor allowed Ni'er to live in the Huai'an Marquis Mansion. You also know that our Duke of Li Kingdom has been loyal and loyal for generations. Of course, we cannot disobey the imperial edict. On this point, Ni'er You have to understand your aunt, and you can’t resent your aunt for this..."
Ji Jun rolled his eyes hundreds of times in his heart, as ten thousand grass-mud horses roared past!
Who blames you, eldest sister?
Eldest sister, to be honest, being in the Huai'an Marquis' Mansion is not as comfortable as being in the Liguo Duke's Mansion. But it's not much better in your Duke Li's Mansion.
It's just a dragon's pond and a tiger's den. Or just a shit hole and a piss hole.
We moved out of Li Guogong's mansion. Although we can't say that we moved out happily with gongs and drums, we really have nothing to be happy about, but there is no need for us to be particularly unhappy. Who blames you?
Wang then sighed and said,
"I know you have prejudices against my aunt, but after all, we are all a family. Let the past things be in the past, and let's live a good life in the future. Now my aunt hopes that you two will quickly deal with this matter of the Concubine Xian. The errands are done. After the errands are done, not to mention that you want a noble status, it will be just around the corner for your parents to be promoted to official positions! You two children must be able to handle it well!"
Mrs. Wang told Ji Jun and Ji Ni that the Duke of Li and the Ji family had secrets related to the country and the country. If Ji Jun and Ji Ni knew about it, they must tell their aunt and Concubine Jiao Xian!
Because except for my aunt and Concubine Jiao Xian, everyone else is a bad person! They all have bad intentions towards Duke Li and the Ji family!
You are still young, and you don’t understand the specific battles in the court. As long as you know that in this world, your parents are far away, but your aunt is the closest person to you! Anyone can harm you, but your aunt and concubine will not harm you!
Remember! Remember!
Ji Jun and Ji Min looked at each other. Neither of them were shocked as they imagined, but it was somewhat meaningful.
Ji Jun began to ponder Wang's words, secret?
It was indeed mentioned in the original book, but I didn’t read it. Don't know the ending.
Does Ni'er know?
Before that, I was busy fighting with Su Jin!
Busy making money as a "good neighbor"!
Busy with Li Jiajun's affairs!
Busy investigating the source of Liu Bisheng's poison...
They didn't even care about Ni'er's affairs!
Concubine Jiao Xian and Mrs. Wang are both on the move, it looks like there is a secret.
And, it seems, the secret is very difficult to find!
However, one thing is true, don’t say you haven’t found it, if you find it, I can’t give you the first one!
Absolutely not!
Wang is still persevering in speaking,
"My aunt will not tell others about your hard work, nor will she trust others. Because she cares about you, she doesn't want you to be bewitched and instigated by villains, and have a relationship with your aunt and Duke Li's family. My aunt That’s why I tell you these secret things that cannot be told to outsiders. You must not let down my aunt’s thoughts, let alone the hard work of the virtuous concubine. Huh?”
Ji Min lowered his head and said nothing.
Ji Jun felt that he was an elder after all and could not remain silent, so he forced out a modest and intimate smile.
Then, Ji Jun felt goosebumps all over the place!
Ji Jun secretly thought, this is getting to the point, I will live up to Concubine Jiao Xian’s hard work, and I will live up to your hard work, haha.
The question is, do we know each other well?
Seeing Ji Jun's reaction,
Wang was very satisfied.
"Yun'er is my elder sister, so she understands it faster. Concubine Xian said that if you complete the errands well, then Ni'er's father can be promoted to the third rank, and Ni'er can also be granted the title of County Lord. Or, if you guys Since you are in love with the two heirs, I can also directly ask the emperor for grace to grant marriage to you two, so that you can marry into the prince's palace in a glorious manner and become a dignified concubine."
Ji Jun almost laughed three times in his heart!
Haha, after spending so much effort and still being upright and graceful, is she just a concubine?
Simply - speechless.
Mrs. Wang kept lowering her head when she saw Ji Min. And Ji Jun's eyes glanced elsewhere involuntarily.
From the look in her eyes, he guessed that Ji Jun might be dissatisfied with these words, so he said sincerely,
"You all need to know your identities. For now, if Yi'er enters the prince's palace, you may have the possibility of becoming a concubine. But, Jun'er, you have to know that with your status, if you want to enter the prince's palace, you can only It could be to be an aunt or a concubine for the two princes."
Hearing this, Ji Jun put away his smile and lowered his eyes coolly.
There is no way, because of the difference in status, I have to listen to Wang's condescending tone here, saying those words that seem to show how much grace he has given you and how much advantage you have taken.
And the tone of exhortation brought Ji Jun nothing but humiliation!
Mrs. Wang, you and Jiao Chengfang want me to go through fire and water. I may be in danger, and I may also work hard!
As a result, your promise was nothing but a "concubine"!
It was Jiao Chengfang who had to ask the emperor for grace!
Sister, are you kidding me? If I just hand over the secret to the emperor to ask for the seal, can it be over?
After passing through Concubine Jiao Xian, and then through you, after plucking out the hair layer by layer, what else is left for me?
hehe! Just sit back and enjoy the results, don’t do it like this! This eating scene is too ugly!
Let’s see what Wang will do next!
"Let's do this!" Wang saw that Ji Jun, who was smiling at first, turned expressionless like Ji Nian, and felt that they might have become suspicious.
After all, the prince's son is a royal heir, and marriages are always decided by the emperor.
Wang thought about it and said as if she had made a lot of determination,
"In this way, I will give you a clear explanation here. If the two county princes do not spit out their words at that time, you will enter the palace of my Duke Li. You two will have a noble concubine and a common wife. What do you think? "
Ji Jun rolled his eyes again in his heart. He's not doing anything yet, but he's already drawing money?
From the concubine in the prince's palace to the concubine in your Duke Li's palace, I'll go!
"It's just that if you two marry your eldest cousin, who is the equal wife and who is the concubine will depend on your abilities."
Yo ho! Ji Jun cursed secretly, but he was openly provoking it.
Let Ni'er and I scramble to find secrets for you for your son's "equal wife". It's best for us sisters to turn against each other and both sides suffer!
It would be best if we could die together, right?
Sister, are you writing a novel?
You are the only smart person in the world. With just a few words, we will work hard for you. Who are you?
I really think I am an onion! I haven’t dipped you in the sauce yet!
Ji Jun raised his eyes and looked at Wang, and saw that she was trying hard to maintain a decent smile and showing care for herself and Yi'er. He felt that this face was very disgusting!
Not giving any benefits, but only giving employees a pie, this is what unscrupulous bosses did in ancient times!
Thinking of this, Ji Jun prayed to the Wang family for good health.
"Thank you, madam, for your plan for my sisters! However, we were framed by Su Jin, the aunt of the Marquis of Huai'an, and are still troubled by some complicated things. Please help me, madam, to teach Su Jin a lesson so that my sisters can live happily." Focus on doing things for your empress and madam.”
When Wang heard this, she was stunned for a moment, then put on a smile and said, "What do you want?"
Ji Jun stood up and said with a smile,
"The little girl is short-sighted and doesn't know what to do. In short, just ask Su Jin not to cause trouble for our sisters. It depends on the madam's decision! A few days ago, Su Jin persuaded the head of Li County to instigate Zhang Jisheng to pretend to be the prince. My "good neighbor" caused trouble, and as a result, Su Jin had one of her fingers chopped off by the county prince. Madam, why don't you learn from this?"
