Mr. Liang Bo is reborn with me

Chapter 167 Full of gunpowder

"Shut up!" The eldest lady reprimanded extremely sternly, "Didn't I tell you? No matter what happens in the palace, you can't talk about it, let alone what happened just now."

"Everyone is tacitly aware of this matter, and the prince also wants to suppress it. If you say it now, you will lose the face of the entire Prime Minister's Palace, and even I will suffer. This is just a small matter, and there is still time before her wedding.

For a long time, we can slowly torture her."

Jiang Wenyue returned to the carriage first, and it was a long time before Liu Xiangyun came back behind the eldest lady.

"Why is the second sister looking at me like this?"

"Is Sister Yun'er telling a joke? I was just in a daze and you said I was looking at you, but when I really looked at you you avoided me. What's the point?"

"Stop arguing," the eldest lady glared at the two of them, "If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it back home."

Zhou Shanshan always remembered Jiang Wenyue's help in rescuing her from the siege, and told her father what happened when she returned home.

"Father, His Highness the Crown Prince ridiculed me in every possible way at the banquet today. I couldn't defend myself because I didn't know where I offended the Crown Prince. In the end, it was Jiang Wenyue who spoke for me, and she even made the Crown Prince angry away."

Zhou Shanshan took Mr. Zhou's arm and said, "Father, why do you insist on me marrying the prince and becoming the princess? Not only do I not want to be the prince, I don't even want to be the concubine. His Highness the prince said that to me. As soon as I saw him

Just scared.”

"Furthermore, Jiang Wenyue didn't care at all about her daughter pushing her into the water. Her daughter thinks she is a very generous and sensible person. Only she is the most suitable to be the current Crown Princess and the future Queen. My daughter doesn't want to marry the Crown Prince."

The Zhou family loved their daughter, and after Zhou Shanshan's plea, they finally stopped making trouble behind her back.

The cessation of the Zhou family's petty actions has calmed down the discussion about Jiang Wenyue a lot. With the push of Yun Chi, the rumors are gradually changing for the better. Although no one said anything about what happened at the banquet, they still felt that

There is a steelyard.

Three days later, the military report from the northwest region was submitted.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been directly stationed in the military camp since he arrived in the northwest. His Highness gathered all the doctors and medicinal materials in the northwest region together and distributed them uniformly. Then he called on the local wealthy businessmen to donate money and food. The plague was quickly eliminated.

Take control.”

"Your Majesty, this is a joint letter written by local people. What is written in the letter is all about His Highness's time in the local area. Not only did he not publicize his identity, he even ate and lived with many soldiers. There were many people

We only found out who he really was after His Highness left Northwest."

"Your Majesty, this is the death situation of local people reported by local officials. Due to timely control, the vast majority of people have returned to normal life, and the government has also issued a certain amount of silver to a few whose relatives have died."

"Your Majesty, I am from the Taiyuan Hospital. This is a prescription developed by the officials of the Taiyuan Hospital. It is quite effective in treating the plague."

These are all good things, and coupled with Jiang Wenyue's recent reputation in Beijing, many people say that the Crown Princess is a lucky star.

"Your Majesty, since Your Highness and Miss Jiang are getting married, it is a good thing for both the government and the public. Miss Jiang should not be slandered. I beg your Majesty to keep the Crown Princess innocent."

"I beg Your Majesty to restore the innocence of the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess-to-be is a lucky star sent from heaven to bless me with good weather, good fortune, peace and prosperity for the country and the people, rather than some evil star."

"Thinking about what I said before, I thought it was just hearsay. Now that I think about it, I realize that I was confused. I actually listened to such ridiculous rumors and directly made the decision to postpone the wedding without any actual contact...

…”

"Father," Yun Chi walked in from outside the palace, "Father is not confused, but was temporarily deceived by bad people. Father is thinking about the country and the people, so this matter cannot be blamed on father, but should be blamed on him.

Find the real culprit."

The emperor raised his head after hearing Yun Chi's words: "The prince said this, did he make some discovery?"

"That's right, after the investigation in recent days, I have found out the truth about the matter. The reason why my father believed these words is because the person who spread these rumors is above the main hall!"

"What? Actually here?"

"Who is it that cursed the princess-to-be so viciously that the Holy Emperor could not sleep peacefully?"

"This, this, this... what should I do if this kind of thing happens to you and me in the future?"

"Silence! Listen to me, everyone," Yun Chi said loudly, "I hope that the person who did this can take the initiative to stand up. As long as he takes the initiative to admit it, I will ask my father to exempt that person from the death penalty, because so far

Fortunately, there were no serious consequences.”

"There is no need to ask, I have approved it, exempting this person from the death penalty and the crime of implicating his family."

Everyone waited for a while, and then someone noticed Master Zhou, who was standing in the corner, slowly walking out and kneeling in the center of the hall: "The initiator of this matter... is Wei Chen."

"Mr. Zhou? How could it be Mr. Zhou? He has always been kind-hearted. Even if his relationship with Prime Minister Jiang is not good, he wouldn't have gone to such an extent, right?"

"It is true, Mr. Zhou," Yun Chi took out a few pieces of paper from his arms, "These are the relevant testimonies of the people involved in this matter. They all signed their signatures. I thought it was because they were first-time offenders.

I only fined them some salary."

"But Father, the fake Taoist priests who spread the message in the public and the eunuch who said this about you must be executed. Such people cannot stay in the palace."

The emperor's face darkened instantly when he learned that the authentication evidence was there. He pointed at Mr. Zhou and said "you" several times, and finally took off his black gauze hat.

"Although I spared you the death penalty in this matter, you will not be able to escape the crime of living. You must find a time to come and apologize in person in order to clear the crown princess's name. I don't believe you would do such a thing just because you love your daughter so much.

But this matter ends here, I hope all of you dear friends can take this as a warning."

"Your Majesty, now that the Crown Princess has been cleared, does the Ministry of Rites need to re-schedule the auspicious date?"

"Where is the Minister of Rites?"

"Wei Chen is here."

"I'll ask you to re-calculate the auspicious date from tomorrow. Once you've determined it, prepare a plan and submit it. There must be no mistakes."

"According to the decree."

After leaving the court, many people gathered around Prime Minister Jiang: "Congratulations, Prime Minister, you will soon have a prince as your son-in-law."

"Oh my lord, you are really embarrassing me. The prince is the prince, and the rules must not be messed with."

The people around him congratulated him one after another, and Prime Minister Jiang felt a little elated. He even walked much more briskly than usual.

"Father-in-law, walk slowly and wait for my son-in-law!"

Prime Minister Jiang turned around, and when he saw that the person who said this was Yun Chihou, he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground: "Your Highness, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must not address Wei Chen like this, Wei Chen cannot bear it!"

"What can't be tolerated? Although Wenyue and I have not yet married, it shouldn't be wrong to call us this."

"Your Highness, I am afraid, I am afraid..."

"Okay, don't have so many rules. You know I hate these red tapes the most."

Yun Chi walked side by side with him, and Prime Minister Jiang was so frightened that he hurriedly fell back half a step: "I remember going to the Prime Minister's Mansion once before going to the northwest, and now I realize that so long has passed. I almost thought it happened yesterday."

"Weichen understands what His Highness means, and Weichen will never let my little girl suffer any injustice."

After the Holy Emperor issued the decree, many people came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to congratulate him. Even Princess Qian'an, who had not left the palace for a long time, had the opportunity to visit her friends.

"Jiang Wenyue! Why don't you know how to greet me even when I'm at the door of your yard? Could it be that you fell asleep on the couch, right?"

Princess Qian'an had a bold personality and was a good friend of Jiang Wenyue, so the concierge and servants did not stop her at all. She broke into Jiang Wenyue's yard and yelled a few times before she saw her friend pushing open the door with a confused look on her face.

"Why did you come so early? I haven't even dressed up yet!"

"It's rare that I leave the palace, so of course I have to come and see you."

Princess Qian'an backed away from the servants around her and signaled the maids to leave. She pulled Jiang Wenyue and rushed into the room happily: "Congratulations! You will become the Crown Princess soon. When you enter the palace, we can see each other every day.

Yes, it’s great!”

"Well," Jiang Wenyue said gloomily, "If possible, I don't want to be a queen or a princess, I just want to be an ordinary person."

"Brother Prince is a very nice person, why don't you like him?"

Jiang Wenyue lay on the table and said in a low voice: "It's hard to say anything."

"Forget it, forget it. Although I don't know why you don't like the prince brother, I have always been on your side. It's a pity that although I am a princess, my rights are limited, and my mother is just a little concubine.

It would be great if I could help you tell the Holy One to cancel the wedding."

"It is impossible to cancel the wedding. What I want now is to postpone the wedding."

"Why?" Princess Qian'an was puzzled.

"I have to compete with others in my medical skills in half a month. This is very important to me. If the wedding happens in half a month, it will be fine. If it happens in half a month, I won't be able to leave the palace."

Princess Qian'an said hesitantly: "How about I go try and see if I can bribe the officials of the Ministry of Rites? They will probably give me face when they see me. Let me reiterate that this is your wish. According to your recent reputation, it might be true.

If you can postpone it, just wait, I will return to the palace right away!"

Princess Qian'an rushed over in a hurry, and rushed back to the palace even more furiously. After entering the palace, she went straight to the Ministry of Etiquette: "Master Shangshu, can the wedding of the crown prince brother and the crown princess be postponed for a while? For example... half a year? Or

Four months is fine. The Crown Princess said that the wedding needs to be done with caution and not to be rushed. Only in this way can we show that we attach great importance to the wedding..."

She spent a long time in the etiquette department and spent a lot of money and said a lot of good things, and finally decided to postpone the wedding in three months.

"Jiang Wenyue, I tried my best, but those old men are too pedantic."

"It's okay, thank you for working so hard to help me."

The wedding of the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess has been postponed again and again. How can the Prime Minister sit down? If the wedding does not happen, his title as the heir of the country may be replaced at any time.

"Someone is coming!"

A young boy walked in anxiously and saw the Prime Minister sitting on a sandalwood armchair, his thick eyebrows furrowed. He said carefully: "Young man is here, please give me your orders."

"Call the second lady."

Jiang Wenyue was sitting in the courtyard sorting herbs, but her father called her for questioning. She guessed that he was looking for her because of the postponement of the wedding.

"Father, are you looking for me?" Jiang Wenyue looked confused.

The Prime Minister poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of Jiang Wenyue, "Sit down, I haven't chatted with you for a long time."

She didn't want to continue to play this drama of a loving father and a filial son.

Smell unhurriedly: "Father, what do you want from me?"

The prime minister smiled and said, "I heard that your wedding to the prince has been postponed again. Does it have anything to do with you?"

"What are you talking about, father? This auspicious day was determined by God. Even if my daughter has great abilities, she can't change it." Jiang Wenyue said and took a sip of tea. It was aged Longjing tea, which was very astringent.

"Don't think that by signing an engagement with the Crown Prince, you will be firmly entrenched in the position of Crown Princess. Do you know how many people outside the Prime Minister's Mansion are coveting the position of Crown Princess?" She looked at Jiang Wenyue pretending to be stupid.

,

The Prime Minister was a little displeased, "After all, women are short-sighted. You should listen more to your father, find time to get closer to the prince, and arrange the marriage as early as possible. Only then can you truly enter the royal family."

When he saw the person opposite him lowering his eyes, he thought Jiang Wenyue had heard what he said, and continued: "You are just a concubine, but fortunately you have the support of the Prime Minister's Office behind you, so you can climb up to the hem of the prince's clothes.

If you are smart, you should climb up the hem of the clothes and seize the prince's heart."

Unexpectedly, his old father was so anxious to get this job. He was afraid that the prince's son-in-law would fly away, so he wanted to pack his daughter immediately and send it to the prince's bed, so that they could get married immediately tomorrow.

Jiang Wenyue said calmly on the surface: "Father is right." She snorted inwardly, she was just a man who was eager to sell his daughter.

"Does father have anything else to do?" Jiang Wenyue asked.

After the prime minister finished speaking, he waved his hand: "Go and have a rest early."

As soon as she walked out the door and turned around, Jiang Wenyue threw all his words out of her mind. Nothing about the prince or the engagement was as important as the medical skills competition that would take place a few days later.

Early the next morning, Jiang Wenyue got up and reviewed medical books in the garden. The morning sun lazily hit her waterfall-like hair, sparkling like lake water, and her eyes stared intently at the yellowed stone table.

medical books.

"Second sister, look, look, look, there is a flower saucer parked here." Jiang Hanyu shouted excitedly, holding a few platycodons still hanging with dew in her hands.

Jiang Wenyue smiled: "The sky is bright today, but the house is very clean."

The maid next to me received: "Second young lady, you don't know something. The eldest young lady returned to the house yesterday."

Hearing Jiang Xiyuan's name, Jiang Hanyu suddenly lost interest and showed fear: "Eldest... why is eldest sister back?"

"I heard that the eldest lady was wronged because of what happened to the Marquis a few days ago and came back to cry to the eldest lady." The maid lowered her voice and looked around cautiously.
