Tianhuang nobleman

Chapter 105

Qi Xiao had put all his energy into preparing to deal with the Feng family, but the only two people with brains in Feng's family had gone on strike. Qi Xiao felt a little regretful, but the more aggressive they were, the more Qi Xiao could use their strength to make them fight. Qi Xiao felt a great pity in his heart now that the father-in-law and uncle of the country had resigned to their fate.

"Later, Empress Feng left the second prince in the palace, talking until late at night." Jiang Deqing whispered what the spies had said, and thought for a while, "Your Highness... Old Mrs. Feng still has some brains, do you want to Why don't you tell him clearly, let him dissuade Feng from dissuading Empress Feng?"

"No." Qi Xiao interrupted Jiang Deqing with a mocking smile, "I really want to see how Empress Feng will deal with me, and... I will definitely send her away before I ascend the throne. It's a headache."

Jiang Deqing understood that Qi Xiao hated the emperor and empress to the bone, so he would not allow Empress Feng to be the empress dowager safely.This is not only in line with their wishes, but also creates hidden dangers for Qi Xiao's life after he ascends the throne, the gain outweighs the gain.

Jiang Deqing was still a little worried, and said in a low voice: "As the saying goes, barefoot people are not afraid of those who wear shoes, and their words are not rude. If the queen fights hard, she will really do something that is not good for His Highness..."

Qi Xiao chuckled: "Then it depends on her ability."

Seeing that Jiang Deqing was still worried, Qi Xiao gave him a comforting smile: "Eunuch, don't forget...there is still one of our chess pieces in the palace."

Jiang Deqing suddenly thought of Concubine Xue Gui, clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Yes, this old slave is confused."

Qi Xiao said slowly: "However, don't be careless. Although Xue Guifei seems to have no second thoughts, she also has a son and a married woman. Don't rest assured. We have to pay close attention to our own side. The last moment , don’t let anything go wrong.”

Jiang Deqing nodded: "Don't worry, Your Highness."

While talking, there was some movement in the room, a soft smile appeared from the corner of Qi Xiao's mouth, he looked at Jiang Deqing stupidly, Qi Xiao turned and went into the room, Jiang Deqing couldn't follow, and he was afraid that Qi Xiao would have something else to do He ordered, so he had to stand outside and wait, Bairen slept in the innermost pavilion, separated from the outside by two spans and three screens, Jiang Deqing couldn't see what was going on inside, and only heard Bairen murmur What, His Royal Highness coaxed him with a smile and soft voice, Jiang Deqing was amused in his heart, he looked like Emperor Wu, he was like a fierce god outside, when he returned to his room and faced the person next to his pillow, Baisteel suddenly became Soft around your fingers.

After days of hard work and last night's indulgence, Bai Ren's body was sore, and he couldn't help but hum to Qi Xiao: "My back hurts, and my legs hurt too..."

Qi Xiao stretched his hand into the quilt and rubbed it gently for Bai Ren, and coaxed in a low voice: "Someone has already made a soup for you, pour it into the soup pool in a while, and put more red flowers, soak it for a while and you'll be fine." tired."

Bai Ren lay on Qi Xiao's lap and nodded, thought for a while and whispered: "Did you talk to Eunuch Jiang just now? What did you say?"

Qi Xiao paused, then smiled and said, "Just now, Eunuch heard something new about Kangtai, Jiang Deqing..."

Jiang Deqing knew it well, went inside and greeted Bai Ren through a screen, and said with a smile: "Go back to the prince, I heard people talking about the excitement in Mr. Li's mansion when I got up early, and this old slave thought it was interesting, so I told His Highness about it." .”

Bai Ren was stunned for a moment before remembering that Li's residence is Kang Tai's husband's family, he laughed and said, "What's wrong with Kang Tai?"

Jiang Deqing smiled and said: "Second Miss is really capable. After coming to Beijing, she first went to the Lingnan Prince's Mansion in the middle of Beijing. Because the mansion there has not been repaired after the fire last year, the old steward who looked after the house took it as an excuse. You sent the second lady away, but the second lady didn't get out of the sedan chair, and went directly to He's mansion, wanting to get married from He's mansion, but after being scolded by Princess Roujia, she couldn't do it, so she had to go honestly The Li residence is here."

Jiang Deqing spoke with sarcasm, shaking his head and laughing: "Speaking of it, the second young lady is a bit arrogant. Mrs. Li's family sent someone to pick her up outside the city out of good intentions, but unfortunately she ignored him and wanted to be like a good lady. Marrying, unfortunately, I went around the city to no avail, and finally went to Li's mansion in despair. Fortunately, the wife of Li's mansion wanted to use her to control the second daughter-in-law, Yan Shi, so she didn't say anything. , set up several tables of wine, and led her to meet everyone in the clan, it was a good night, but something went wrong when paying Yan's greetings the next morning."

"When I carried the second bedroom for the second lady the day before, Yan was fine. Everyone was still wondering that day, but it turned out that it should be on the second day. Yan woke up early in the morning and complained of chest pains, and she couldn't stand it. Mrs. Li I had no choice but to ask the imperial physician, but the imperial physician couldn't say anything after checking the pulse, but Yan's pain became worse and worse. After two days of fuss, Yan's nanny went to ask someone to see it, and they said... "Jiang Deqing laughed, "It was said that the newcomers were bumping into each other. Yan didn't say anything, but just made trouble all day and all night. It cost a lot of money to invite imperial doctors and immortals back and forth, and didn't care about anything. People from my family came to ask, although they didn’t say it clearly, but it meant that the Li family should send Miss Kangtai back.”

"Second Miss was smart this time. She didn't make a fuss, she just cried with the Second Young Master. The Second Young Master's good temper has long been worn out by Yan Shi. Now that there is such a pretty young concubine by her side, how can she care about it?" In addition, he immediately pushed back, saying that there are three major unfilial things and no descendants. Although he values ​​his wife, he must respect his parents even more. Yan's family has been in the family for five years and has nothing to do, and he is not allowed to get close to others. Could it be that he really wants to let himself never succeed? The people of the Yan family were furious after hearing this. Mrs. Li came out to make love at this time, saying that she loved her second daughter-in-law the most, and married her son to the second wife only because she saw that she was not good enough to give birth. The house has been consummated, and it is absolutely impossible to send people back. If the daughter-in-law is always bad... then go back to her mother's house for a while, and wait for the second wife's grandmother to give birth to a son, and live under Yan's name, it will be the same."

"Then Mrs. Li can't help it. She can't see her son has no heirs. After finally picking up a person with a proper status, how can she just let him go? That Yan family is really hot-tempered. After hearing this Afterwards, there was a big fuss, yelling about pampering concubines and destroying wives. After packing up their things, they went back to their mother's house. Naturally, the Li family couldn't really let Yan family stay at her mother's house, but in order to teach Yan family a lesson, they took her up several days later. When she came back, Yan Shi had obviously been educated at her natal family, and she was very honest when she came back, and she didn't make trouble anymore."

Qi Xiao mocked lightly: "It made Kangtai happy."

Jiang Deqing smiled treacherously, shook his head and said: "It's not that the second young master Li just dotes on the second young lady, and Mrs. Li always makes faces for her. I probably understand."

Bai Ren couldn't help laughing: "Being pampered makes me spoiled, I can't bear a little favor."

Bai Ren said it himself, so Jiang Deqing didn't shy away from it, and continued: "After two days of good times, the second lady started to think about something, and urged the second young master Li to tell Master Li and Mrs. Li, let Divorce Yan Shi and help her to be the housewife's grandmother."

Qi Xiao sneered: "Does she have any brains? If the Li family can really get rid of the Yan family, why bother with her? Just write a letter of divorce. No matter what kind of famous lady can't get it, the Li family just doesn't want to get her." The Yan family was offended badly, and they didn't want to lose this person, so they came up with this method of raising a concubine, does she understand?!"

Jiang Deqing spread his hands: "Who says it's not? The second lady doesn't understand what anyone with a discerning eye knows, so she insists on making a fuss about it. Now, Yan's got a handle on her, and she started arguing again, running to Mrs. Li every day. She asked for a divorce letter, and when there were relatives visiting the Li family, she also talked to them, saying that the house could not tolerate her, and they were discussing to buy arsenic to poison her. I had no choice but to reprimand Second Miss in front of everyone, not allowing her to cling to Second Young Master Li to do all these things, but to serve with peace of mind, and to give birth to a son soon is serious. Just as she was about to step down and conceive a child, Yan thought of another way."

Jiang Deqing shook his head and smiled: "Yan Shi changed her previous jealousy style, and suddenly gave several rooms to Young Master Li, all of them are beautiful, and Young Master Li let Yan Family take strict care of her for several years. Have you seen this battle? For a while, you can't care about Second Miss... Naturally, if Second Miss can settle down and be steadfast, it won't be difficult to conceive a brother in the future."

Bai Ren shook his head secretly in his heart, others don't know that he understands, let Kangtai be at ease?dream.She chose the Li family back then because she wanted to imitate her biological mother, but the Yan family is not like a concubine, so how could she tolerate it? It's impossible to say... Kangtai will probably spend the rest of his life in the battle between concubines and concubines up...

Seeing Bai Ren's expression was calm, Qi Xiao was afraid that he would be upset, so he said to Jiang Deqing: "Let her go, let the outside bring in breakfast first, so he can eat something so he can go to the hot spring."

Jiang Deqing quickly agreed, but Bai Ren suddenly said again: "Wait...Kangtai made such a mess, didn't...didn't sue Roujia again?"

Jiang Deqing smiled in relief: "My lord, don't worry, the second lady is only a second bedroom now, and she can't go out on weekdays, and she can't even see the princess. Besides... the princess is now the wife of the family, which is different from when she was a girl in the past. , I can take care of my own affairs very well, the prince can rest assured."

Bai Ren remembered how Rou Jia stopped Kang Tai from entering the mansion before and smiled, nodded, completely at ease.

Seeing Bai Ren's laziness, Qi Xiao simply asked someone to bring in breakfast, and placed it on the small kang table to have an intimate meal with Bai Ren. The more uncomfortable Bai Ren was, the more he liked Qi Xiao, no Consciously wanting to coax Qi Xiao, Qi Xiao laughed in his heart, and whispered: "I know you're not feeling well, I'll rub it for you later, okay?"

Bai Ren hummed twice in satisfaction, and graciously sent Qi Xiao's favorite spring rolls to the small plate in front of Qi Xiao. The two of them were loving each other when a big maid came in from outside and said with a blessing, "Your Highness, Dun Su The eldest princess is here."

Bai Ren got a mouthful of cheese stuck in his throat, and coughed heart-piercingly. Qi Xiao couldn't laugh or cry, beat him for him, and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of..." Qi Xiao turned his head and said to the outside: "General The princess went to the flower hall and told the eldest princess that I just got a few pots of excellent orchids, please take a look at the eldest princess, pick two pots and take them back later."

The big maid went down again, Qi Xiao took a cup of tea and fed it to Bai Ren, and said with a smile: "Those who don't know thought it was the emperor who woke up and ran to catch｜ raped him, so you..."

It took a while for Bai Ren to recover, panting: "You... Be careful, don't let her in, I'm fine, go quickly, don't make the princess suspicious..."

Qi Xiao didn't feel relieved, so he sat with him for a while, seeing that he was fine, he straightened his clothes and took him to the flower hall.

Princess Dunsu has a delicate mind, and it is not easy to fool her. Qi Xiao was thinking about how to explain it, but Princess Dunsu couldn't care about anything when she saw him. Palace, Concubine Xue Gui quietly gave me a message, the matter is urgent, so I came directly..."

Qi Xiao paused: "What's wrong?"

A look of coldness flashed in Princess Dunsu's eyes, she gritted her teeth and said ruthlessly, "Concubine Xue said that Empress Feng had someone make a batch of chopsticks secretly. The hollowed-out silver-covered ones are fake! I asked someone to see them, and they said that they were made out of finely refined iron mixed with something else. It looked the same as silver chopsticks, but..."

Qi Xiao curled his lips into a smile: "But I can't try the poison."
