Jing Rong kissed her on the forehead lightly, and then reached out and gently wiped the tears from her cheeks.
Be gentle!
He was safe and sound, and so was her heart.
The two are reunited as if they were separated from life and death, and they are deeply affectionate and passionate.
Ji Yunshu lowered his eyes for a moment, raised his head slightly, and asked him, "How is the situation in the palace?"
Asked here, he shook his head.
"Is it bad?"
Shaking his head again.
Unexplainable.
Jing Rong explained slowly, "The edict has been submitted. As for the decision of the emperor, it depends on the court of tomorrow."
It seems that the real tough battle is tomorrow!
Most of the ministers have already stood on Jing Yi's side. Now that Jing Rong is back in Beijing, naturally he can't escape the words of the ministers. Maybe there will be another riot in the court tomorrow, which will force Emperor Qi Zhen to decree him again. "Go to the Imperial Palace.
But everything is still waiting for the discussion of male and female in the court tomorrow.
At this time-
Lang Bo said from the outside, "Your Highness, Master Yu, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, is here."
No wonder it doesn't come!
Jing Rong turned around and nodded, agreeing.
Ji Yunshu is naturally not involved in matters between men, so he said, "I'll avoid it first."
"Need not."
"Can… "
"You also listen."
He forced her to sit down.
After a little while, Yu Shaoqing came, walked into the hall, bowed his hands and leaned over, "See Prince Rong for the lower official."
"Master Yu, don't need to be too polite, take the seat."
Take a seat.
The servant in the house quickly served a pot of good tea.
Yu Shaoqing glanced at Ji Yunshu, who was sitting opposite, and cupped his hands again, "It turns out that Mr. Ji is also there."
She smiled politely in response.
"Regarding the conduct of that case, it was sent from the imperial palace to Dali Temple a few days ago, and now it has been investigated and found out, Mr. Ji still has the ability. It took two years for an unjust, false and mysterious case to be dealt with by you. The hand was clearly broken, and this official really admires it."
Sincere!
"Master Yu is serious, it's just good luck, it's not about any ability or ability."
"Mr. Ji is humble."
"Award."
The two laughed politely.
Instead, Yu Shaoqing brought tea to Jingrong and said, "Xiaguan also congratulates the prince on returning to Beijing."
Jing Rong raised his glass for a while, but said, "Master Yu is too early to say. When he goes to court tomorrow, I don't know what the result will be."
"Your Majesty has the last emperor's edict in hand, so why worry?" After speaking, he was confused again and asked, "But... what was written on the first emperor's edict? Where did the king come from?"
Jing Rong didn't intend to hide him either.
He said directly, "The last edict was handed over to Lord Kang by the late emperor for safekeeping. This time, when he knew that this king was back in Beijing, he took it out and helped this king. As for what was written in the edict, it was to send troops to destroy the barbarians!"
"Uh!" Yu Shaoqing was shocked, "Destroy the barbarians?"
After a while, he finally came to a realization.
"What the lord sent was a life-saving straw. Now the barbarians are making troubles in the frontier area. Now that the emperor's edict has come, it has solved a big problem for Dalin. Although the lord has not been able to find out the whereabouts of the disaster relief silver, he can send this imperial decree. , but the contribution is indispensable, the emperor will not let the prince return to the palace again, and the courtiers will not be able to say anything at that time."
"Everything is uncertain." Jing Rong said in a deep voice, her brows gathered together, "If Yi Wang and the others hold on to the disaster relief silver, even if the emperor wants to keep this king in Beijing, it will probably be a tough battle."
Yu Shaoqing also showed a look of sadness, "Since the prince left the capital, the Yiwang party has continued to grow, and the entire court is almost filled with Yiwang's people, and now that he is married to the Ji family's direct daughter, it can be said to be even more powerful. With just one word, all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty will stand by him, and if the prince wants to succeed, he must attack from an early age, and then there is a chance of winning."
"This king understands." He nodded and said again, "The last time the assassin was killed in the Dali Temple prison, I would like to thank Lord Yu for your help."
"Don't dare." Yu Shaoqing said quickly, "It is an honor for the lower official to serve the prince, and since he planned to stand on the prince's side, he has already made all preparations. no hesitation."
"It seems that you are the same kind of person as Mr. Qiao, the former Minister of Officials."
"Why are you talking about Mr. Joe?"
"Just to mention it."
Jing Rong did not want to say more.
Indeed, Yu Shaoqing and Qiao are the same kind of people, they are both people who know how to be flexible and judge the situation.
And Yu Shaoqing didn't make any guesses.
On the other hand, Ji Yunshu suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, Master Yu, the imperial examinations are over, right?"
"Yes, it's just over."
"I don't know who the top three are?"
Answer, "The champion and the second place are both students from Mingshan Academy. The champion is the current Hanlin Academy's editor Lin Shulin, and the second place is the Bi editor Shang Zhuoshang."
Whoops!
I hurt my brother.
Ji Yunshu and Jing Rong looked at each other.
Jing Rong said, "I didn't expect that Lin Shu's kid was really the number one scholar in high school, so he didn't waste his time saving him."
"So, Wang Ye and Mr. Ji know this person?"
"see once."
Oh!
Yu Shaoqing sighed, "But the lord may not know it. According to the lower official's understanding, the champion is already a member of King Yi."
shock!
Ji Yunshu asked, "What's going on?"
Yu Shaoqing explained, "Originally, the first and second place, the emperor did not decide because of the high and low scores of the two, but later said that it was because of the king, so the Hanlin Academy recommended Mr. Lin, the emperor was not sure about it. To make a decision, let the Hanlin Academy select an individual first, so the top spot naturally falls on the head of the Lord Lin."
Finished!
Ji Yunshu was disappointed.
I thought that kid could get better, but I didn't expect it to be so indistinguishable.
Jing Rong was not disappointed, but said, "Jing Yi's hand is very long."
"It's not enough for a small editor to repair, but the prince doesn't have to worry about it."
"Does this king have any concerns?" He asked back, "No matter how powerful Jing Yi is, no matter how powerful his claws are, he is nothing but a beast trapped in the capital by his father."
So in the final analysis, Emperor Qi Zhen is more powerful!
To make kings for his sons, but not to seal the land, the mansion can only be located in the capital, which is convenient for control, and avoids them recruiting troops and buying horses from abroad, and forming their own faction.
So in the end, no matter how powerful Jing Yi is, he can only pretend to be a tiger in the capital.
It's just that now all the officials are on his side, and with the help of the Ji brothers, this tiger seems to have grown a lot, and some of it can't be contained.
Yu Shaoqing didn't say anything in the end, he just agreed with what he said. After all, he still understood what it meant.
Afterwards, we chatted a few times and talked about some big and small things in the capital for a few months.
In the end, Jing Rong sent him away.
