Ji Changze watched the excitement for a long time, and after being given a meal by the five consorts, he went home satisfied.
When he returned, Jiang Xinyan was making clothes under the lamp.
Ji Changze saw it, stepped forward and carefully took the needle and thread from her hand, and said with a smile:
"Princess, why are you making clothes at night? Don't you have some money at home now? If you want clothes, just go to a tailor shop."
Jiang Xinyan smiled at him: "No one outside is as meticulous as my own."
These days, when she goes out, she often sees others laughing at her.
It is said that Ji Changze, the nine princes-in-law, fell in love with everyone he saw.
But only Jiang Xinyan knew that the prince-in-law was clearly trying to supplement the family income, even at the cost of ruining his own reputation.
He made a deal with those girls, he helped them out of misery, and they gave them money.
While everyone outside sympathized with Jiang Xinyan, she only felt grateful for her consort's kindness and felt sorry for him.
Chunzhu also whispered to her:
"Princess, I feel that the consort knows everything deep down in his heart."
The two of them used to think that the prince-in-law didn't understand the palace affairs and the twists and turns. They were also disappointed when Ji Changze and the prince-in-law went out to have fun every day.
Especially when the prince-in-law comes back drunk, he will be vicious and disgusted.
But wait until the next day, he will suddenly get better again.
He was still gentle and considerate towards Jiang Xinyan.
After repeating this several times, Jiang Xinyan felt that the prince-in-law was capricious.
Chunzhu said: "Actually, I have never dared to tell the princess before. That day, I saw a man lying on the wall, secretly observing the situation in the courtyard... "
"As soon as he left, the prince-in-law immediately became normal."
Jiang Xinyan clenched the handkerchief in her hand: "Is that person sent by them?"
She had been suppressed and bullied since she was a child, and she tried to resist when she was a child. However, after resisting, she would only suffer a more painful blow and implicate Wang Cainu.
Slowly, Jiang Xinyan became this cowardly and timid person.
Only in this way will Concubine Yang be satisfied and her five sisters will not think about how to bully her every day.
She had been able to feel since she was a child that Concubine Yang's eyes were full of malice when she looked at her.
It seemed that as long as she had a hard time, Concubine Yang would be happy.
But she never expected that even if she got married, Concubine Yang would still be unwilling to let her go.
Chunzhu was very angry: "The Prince Consort usually doesn't say anything, but he knows very well in his heart. He knows why the other princesses' Prince Consort is looking for him. He also knows that there are people at home peeping. In order to appease them, he deliberately puts on a show for them. .”
Jiang Xinyan didn't know what it felt like at that time.
She originally thought that the prince-in-law changed his mind after seeing too much of the colorful world outside and drinking.
Unexpectedly, the prince-in-law would quietly take the matter upon himself.
Just like this time, it was about making money to redeem those girls.
It was also done under the infamy of "Nine Prince Consorts are flirtatious".
If he wasn't worried about her overthinking, he probably wouldn't have taken the initiative to tell her the truth.
Think about it now.
Indeed, ever since the consort began to behave fiercely from time to time, the palace had become less difficult.
Jiang Xinyan has lived for fifteen years, and it is not without people close to him.
For example, Wang Cainu, such as Chunzhu.
But like her, they were both being manipulated and powerless to resist.
Only the Prince Consort is obviously just a commoner.
He was so silent, even if he insulted his own reputation, he wanted to protect her.
Countless thoughts came together in Jiang Xinyan's mind.
Thousands of words turned into just one sentence: "I can never repay you for your kindness."
Maybe this is a couple.
It's not like the father and other ladies in the palace, only ladies trying hard to please.
It's not like the five sisters, who suppressed the princes under their feet just because of their background.
Rather, they are a couple who treat each other with respect and care for each other.
The prince-in-law treated her sincerely, and she responded in kind to him. When the prince-in-law was outside to protect him from the wind and rain, she took care of his housework.
From then on, she was nicer to her consort.
Of course she wanted to make Ji Changze's clothes herself.
"If the princess wants to do this, she can do it during the day. The candlelight is too dim at night and sewing will hurt her eyes."
Ji Changze pulled Jiang Xinyan back to the couch.
For a girl who is not yet sixteen years old, it is good for her health to go to bed early and get up early.
After watching Jiang Xinyan lie down and sleep obediently, he also lay down on his little bed.
After all, he is only nineteen years old.
Also go to bed early and get up early.
Ji Changze lay on the bed with his eyes closed, already thinking about it.
The number of people he has now is not too many, not too few.
Uncle Hub was able to bring business from his hometown to the capital, so he certainly had some skills, and he was supported by hatred in his heart. When it came to rebellion, he was more active than anyone else.
The same goes for his fellow countrymen.
At this age, he should have been able to enjoy his old age, but as a result, a disaster occurred and his son and his whole family were lost.
I came all the way to the capital to file a complaint, but I learned that someone had already filed a complaint before.
But it was Concubine Yang’s father who was sued.
It was said that he had embezzled fertile farmland, and in order to obtain the land of a wealthy local family, he killed his entire family on a random charge.
The married daughter of a wealthy family came to the capital to complain.
As a result, not long after he was taken into prison, it was reported that he committed suicide out of fear of crime.
Her husband's family was also affected. The husband who accompanied her to Beijing died in an "accident" not long after, and even family members far away in her hometown also died in the fire.
As if Concubine Yang's father was just trying to warn others, not only did he not conceal the matter deliberately, but he also spread it widely.
Everyone knows that the eldest prince born by Concubine Yang is deeply loved by the emperor and will most likely get the crown prince position.
Who dares to compete with their family
When the fellow villagers learned about this place, they were disheartened and feared that it would affect their married daughter. They used to drink to relieve their sorrows every day, but after Huber tried a few words, he joined them.
Ji Changze is not afraid of their betrayal.
As long as you join a rebel group, even if you rebel midway, you will still be treated as a traitor by the court.
Once you get on this ship, don't even think about getting off it.
Other members include: refugees from outside recruited by Huber.
The girls headed by Yin'er.
They all changed their appearance and dressed up as businessmen in men's clothing.
At present, except for Yin'er, none of these girls have joined the rebel group. I just think that they are simply helping Ji Changze make money.
Yin'er is an exception.
This girl is really strong, no matter how beautiful and fragrant she looks, she still refuses to be a woman.
Ji Changze asked her if she really would never regain her identity as a woman for the rest of her life
She said: "Unless the world treats men and women the same, I would rather be a man for the rest of my life."
After careful observation, he found that this girl had no respect for the current dynasty, so Ji Changze recruited her.
As soon as Yin'er heard this, she joined almost without hesitation.
After joining, she even paid for a martial arts master to teach her how to practice martial arts.
It had only been a month. When Ji Changze went to see her last time, he felt that her biceps had become much stronger.
Moreover, in just one month, she miraculously grew taller.
But considering that she is also drinking goat milk every day, she is only nineteen years old this year, and has not passed the growth period, Ji Changze can understand.
Now even if she doesn't change the appearance of her face and only shows her own appearance, others will at most regard her as a very handsome young master.
Ji Changze felt that this effect was achieved not only because of her biceps and height, but also because the girl worked hard to bask in the sun every day in order to make her disguise as a man more realistic.
Her skin was as white and tender as water, but she was tanned into a black ball.
She also pays great attention to skin care, and remembers to apply some facial oil on her face before going in the sun. As a result, her tan is evenly tanned, and her skin is not too damaged. Although it is dark, it is still smooth.
Ji Changze could no longer treat this girl as a girl.
He is basically a very heroic man who still wants to go to the battlefield every day.
Almost every time we meet, the conversation goes like this: Han Ying (she changed her name) asks:
"Sir, when are we going to fight? I've been able to defeat five by myself today."
Ji Changze: "Wait, wait."
Han Ying: "Are you still waiting? Qiuzhou is about to be conquered, and the court is still hiding the news. If we don't go forward, others will get it first."
Ji Changze: “Be patient in everything you do, haste makes waste.”
Did she think rebellion was that easy
Rebellion requires not only good eloquence and subordinates, but also money. It depends on the situation.
Ji Changze hasn't gathered enough wool yet.
Although the consorts were poor, they could still make money together if they squeezed together.
Basically everything that the sisters Yin'er knew had come up with was redeemed.
Ji Changze's men are really geniuses.
They invented a new business.
She found a handsome man, disguised herself as a woman, and sold herself into a brothel.
Then Ji Changze "fancyed" him again and redeemed his life.
After doing this routine several times, Ji Changze found that the patience of the princes had reached its limit, so Ji Changze had to give up reluctantly.
what a pity.
What an honest reason to plunder wool.
Recently, the princes-in-law have no money, and they are having troubles with the princesses. They even stopped going to the Tianhe Tower.
The fifth prince-in-law is still recovering from his injuries at home. On the outside, he looks as submissive as ever, but in the court, things are already turbulent.
The fifth prince's father, who had always tried to stand by the eldest prince's side, began to have an ambiguous attitude. He lost his previous closeness to the eldest prince and even started chatting and laughing with the second prince.
The second prince suddenly got such a big pie from the sky, so he was naturally excited and caught it immediately.
Despite the arrogance of Concubine Yang and the eldest prince, the crown prince's position has not yet been decided, and the eldest prince is not the only one with supporters in the court.
Why did the fifth princess marry the fifth prince-in-law
Aren't you just trying to borrow the power of the Five Prince Consorts' family
As a result, the Fifth Prince Consort's family has become more submissive over the years, and the eldest prince is about to dominate the family. In addition, the Fifth Princess concealed the fact that the Fifth Prince Consort was mummified by herself, so Concubine Yang thought that she had legitimate reasons to ask the emperor to punish the Fifth Prince Consort.
But I am on the side of the Five Prince Consorts.
Even though they were working here wholeheartedly for Concubine Yang and the eldest prince, Concubine Yang only regarded them as dogs. The princess was domineering and arrogant, and she was always arrogant and arrogant towards her parents-in-law. She even openly called the handsome husband. Be a guest in the house.
As for the consort, he wouldn't even let him take a look at the girl.
The prince-in-law just talked back, so she started to fight, and let the guard girl next to her beat the prince-in-law half to death.
The fifth prince-in-law struggled for so long before leaving a slap mark on the fifth princess's face. He himself suffered comminuted fractures from the beating and was still unable to move even after lying on the bed for more than a month.
In this way, Concubine Yang was still instigating in front of the emperor.
Let the emperor give thirty boards to the five princes-in-law.
It has to be said that the Fifth Prince Consort still can't get out of bed after all this time. These thirty boards have had a huge impact.
The eunuch who made the plan was said to be someone close to Concubine Yang. At that time, the mother of the fifth prince-in-law begged the fortress for a silver note, and only asked him to show some mercy, but he was so noble and cool that he immediately dealt cruelly.
How could he not let the Fifth Prince Consort's family feel chilled by acting like this
Before you have accomplished anything, you have already started to burn bridges and not take us seriously.
If it succeeds, will their family still have a foothold
Furthermore, if they tolerate this this time, how will the family officials who rely on them treat them? Now that the fifth prince consort and the fifth princess have broken up as husband and wife (wait a minute, they seem to have never been in love), when the eldest prince becomes a man, , wouldn’t it be even more unscrupulous
As a result, the fifth prince's family proudly turned to the second prince.
The Fifth Prince Consort's family is no longer as tolerant towards the Fifth Princess as before.
Anyway, you are a princess and we respect you.
But you want to meddle in our family's affairs
I'm sorry, just take care of your princess's mansion. The mansion of a second-grade minister is not something that the princess can handle casually.
The fifth princess can clearly feel that although the servants of the princess's mansion are still very respectful to her, the servants of the fifth prince-in-law are just average.
If she was angry and wanted to kill someone, she would immediately kneel down and say that although she was serving the consort and the princess in the princess's mansion, her body contract was still in the original mansion.
Strictly speaking, they were not the servants of the fifth princess. Even if the fifth princess wanted to kill them, they had to ask their master before doing so.
Otherwise, it would be a violation of the law, and it would not be a pity for them to die, and it would be bad to implicate the princess.
The fifth princess has been pampered since she was a child. If she has ever been threatened like this, she will immediately pull people down and beat them to death.
But even with such a little delay, someone from the Fifth Prince Consort has already gone to invite the Fifth Prince Consort's biological father.
Second grade minister.
He usually smiled and looked easy to talk to, but when his position changed and he no longer needed to please the fifth princess, he changed his attitude towards the other party.
Nagaze heard the rest of the story not very clearly.
Mainly because the Eighth Prince Consort, who was telling him these gossips, was caught by the Eighth Princess by the ears halfway through the conversation.
The eighth princess is only seventeen years old this year. Although her mother passed away early, she is the child of the princess by marriage.
In the entire palace, even if the emperor neglected anyone, he would not neglect the eighth princess who represented the diplomatic relations between the two countries.
So naturally, the eighth princess is very arrogant like other princesses.
But it's also different.
What standards she holds for her consort are the same standards she holds for herself.
She wouldn't allow her consort to look at other women, and she wouldn't look at other men either.
The eighth prince-in-law is also seventeen years old.
In Ji Changze's eyes, these two people were just two high school students falling in love.
They also fought, but the eighth princess did not complain to the palace, and the eighth prince-in-law did not complain to the family.
If you win today, he will win tomorrow. Anyway, you come and go, and they enjoy it themselves, and others will naturally not try to persuade them to get into trouble.
Ji Changze had never had a drink or meal with the Eighth Prince Consort before.
But he is no stranger to the Eighth Prince Consort and the Eighth Princess. The main reason is that these two can become the top gossip in the capital every two days.
Either the Eighth Prince Consort and the Eighth Princess had a big fight again, or the Eighth Prince Consort was kicked out of the Princess's mansion by the Eighth Princess. The next second, they reconciled and went shopping affectionately again.
Ji Changze looked at it now, and the Eighth Prince Consort was quite enjoying it.
The eighth princess deserves to be a princess with the support of the country behind her. She is confident enough that she can curse in front of Ji Changze:
"Didn't I tell you that you are not allowed to associate with people of bad character?! He loves the new and hates the old half-heartedly, and even dares to play with women after marrying a princess. How dare you eat with such a person? Come and see him once, and I'll beat him up once!"
"Hey, it hurts! Princess, please be gentle. I see that Brother Nagasawa is not that kind of person. Although we have not been together for a short time, he is humorous and has good character..."
"I'll give you a thumbs up!!! If this princess can't say it's true, it's not true!!"
Although she was scolded like this, the eighth princess was still a little gentler.
Speaking ill of Ji Changze in front of him didn't count. She turned around and glared at Ji Changze before leaving.
The Eighth Prince Consort quietly turned his hand behind his back and made an apology gesture to Ji Changze.
Seeing the two people walking away in a lively manner, Ji Changze sat down again with a smile and took a sip of tea.
The eighth princess and the eighth prince-in-law are really a pair of treasures.
After listening to some gossip and learning about the situation in the DPRK and China, he went back after having enough food and wine.
It’s still a day where I don’t have to pay a bill.
After all, it was the Eighth Prince Consort's treat.
It is said that he met some princes-in-law for dinner at Tianhe Tower. Because the eighth princess did not allow him to fool around with those princes-in-law, he originally wanted to turn around and leave.
Finally, when he looked up, he noticed that Ji Changze's demeanor seemed to have changed, so he asked him out out of curiosity.
According to his original words: "Brother Nagasawa, although you were good-looking in the past, you always looked unremarkable. When I look at you today, you really have a jade-like appearance and a gentle temperament..."
In short, it was just beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep. Ji Changze was playing for a long time, and he summed it up in one sentence: I think you are good-looking, so I asked you to come out and see more.
Ji Changze finally understood why the Eighth Princess chose the Eighth Prince Consort when choosing her husband.
Both of them have good looks and can chat easily.
The eighth prince-in-law informed him that the fifth prince-in-law's family had indeed turned to the second prince as Ji Changze expected.
The two princes are actually pretty similar.
The only difference is that the eldest prince can pretend, but the second prince cannot.
Now this smart fifth prince-in-law's biological father wants the second prince. His power is enough for the second prince to adopt his opinions.
It is estimated that there will be a fight between the DPRK and China soon.
Three years, maybe.
In three years at the latest, he will have almost enough troops outside, and the government will not care about it. The other rebel groups will also be strong enough to take over.
Well, the safest and most labor-saving way.
Moreover, Concubine Yang was so worried about all the things she asked him to do that she no longer had the time or energy to bother Jiang Xinyan.
Thinking that he could be a happy salted fish for a long time in the future, Ji Changze returned home in a good mood.
As a result, when we returned, there was no one there.
It was normal for Xianglan to be away. She recently heard about the fifth prince-in-law, and she immediately became energetic. She worked hard to take care of herself every day, and found a way to enter the fifth prince-in-law's house to take care of him personally.
Ji Changze also looked like he was "should".
It just so happens that we can get some information through her.
But it would be strange if Jiang Xinyan and Chunzhu were not there.
He was a little surprised.
Not only did Concubine Yang lose a lot of support now, but the Five Prince Consorts also turned against her, so she probably had no intention of asking Jiang Xinyan to enter the palace.
Ji Changze didn't wait, but directly found Han Ying, who had been arranged by him to rent the house next door.
Han Ying lived there to practice martial arts while protecting the Ninth Princess nearby. Naturally, it was clear.
"Someone from the palace called the princess away, but it doesn't seem to be someone from the harem. I heard that it was His Majesty calling the princess to come into the palace."
Ji Changze's face darkened.
After much calculation, Jiang Xinyan was forgotten.
The emperor's attitude towards Jiang Xinyan can be seen from his name.
Calling her to enter the palace will definitely do nothing good.
Han Ying looked at Ji Changze's face carefully: "Sir, the princess usually comes to the palace and will return when the sun sets. You don't have to worry too much."
Ji Changze's expression still didn't improve.
"Let's go to Huber."
His status as Prince Consort is not really for show. These days, Ji Changze still bribes one or two young eunuchs.
It would be better to inquire about this sudden change.
That night, Jiang Xinyan did not come back, and there was no news from the palace.
In the afternoon of the next day, the eunuch Ji Changze bribed handed over the news.
After Ji Changze heard this, he laughed angrily.
Beihe was captured by Tianzhou Kingdom.
People from the Tianzhou Kingdom came to the capital to negotiate with the emperor.
The emperor didn't want to fight, nor did he want to cede land and pay compensation, so he proposed to marry the princess.
The Tianzhou Kingdom did not have any requirements for women to remarry. They probably inquired about the looks of the princesses and finally selected the Ninth Princess.
Firstly, the Ninth Princess will of course attract a rich man to live without food, and she is naturally beautiful. Secondly, the Ninth Princess’s husband is just an ordinary person, so it is convenient for them to divorce and remarry. Thirdly, it is said that the Ninth Princess has a gentle temperament, so naturally their king does not want to marry her. Come back and be unruly.
Key point: The king of Tianzhou Kingdom is fifty-eight years old this year.
Even older than the emperor, he can be Jiang Xinyan’s grandfather.
But the emperor agreed wholeheartedly.
"The princess is not willing, and Concubine Yang is also trying to persuade her, but the Tianzhou Kingdom is determined to get the princess. Your Majesty seems to be willing to marry the princess, so there is a stalemate."
The eunuch quietly told Ji Changze: "The princess contradicted His Majesty and made His Majesty very angry. She knelt down as punishment yesterday afternoon and has been kneeling ever since."
Ji Changze crushed the string of beads he was playing with.
He knew before that the emperor was nothing, but he didn't expect that he was so nothing.
To marry a fifteen-year-old daughter to a fifty-eight-year-old man, and most importantly, it is equivalent to being a concubine.
Doesn’t he pay attention to tradition
Doesn’t he want the royal face
How could he be willing to give his daughter away without even giving her a real wife
Moreover, the Feng Kingdom is different from the Tianzhou Kingdom. Women here have been taught since childhood that they should obey their husbands when they marry. He, a Feng Kingdom native, wants his daughter who already has a good relationship with her husband to marry someone else.
Shameless can no longer be used to describe it.
Han Ying was startled by the broken beads on the ground: "Master?"
Then she heard the voice of the young master she was following, who seemed to be squeezing out from between his teeth: "Notify everyone that the plan has been advanced and we will evacuate the capital today."
In the afternoon of this day, there were rumors in the capital that the envoys of the Tianzhou Kingdom were going too far. They actually wanted the married Ninth Princess He Li to remarry their king, and she was not the official wife.
Generally, this kind of treatment is only available to subordinate countries.
Just look at the mother of the eighth princess. She is a marriage partner, but she is just a princess.
How could the princess be a concubine if both countries were equal
The people in the capital were suddenly filled with indignation, and the courtiers also made a fuss.
I heard that the Nine Prince Consort was very anxious when he heard about it.
He ran directly to the palace gate and asked to see His Majesty.
But His Majesty didn’t know what he was thinking. He really wanted to marry the Ninth Princess to the Kingdom of Tianzhou. The Ninth Prince Consort waited at the palace gate until early the next morning. He asked other princes-in-law to help, and asked the ministers everywhere. In the early morning, , the ninth princess was sent out.
It is said that the ninth princess was unwilling to marry and was accused of being unfaithful and unfilial.
The Ninth Prince Consort ignored the royal family's face and made this incident known to everyone. His Majesty became angry. After the advice of Concubine Yang, he stripped the Ninth Princess of her princess title and ordered them to leave the capital and never return to the capital.
Moreover, the Ninth Princess and Ninth Prince Consort were not allowed to go home and pack their things.
That day, as Han Ying worked hard to spread the news, countless people came out to watch the fun.
Some people think His Majesty is too cruel.
Some people think that the princess should also sacrifice for the court.
Some people think, isn't this the Ninth Prince Consort who fell in love with the Ninth Princess at first sight and was granted marriage
As expected, he is passionately devoted to the princess.
It's a pity that the two of them left the capital without bringing their property with them, and they didn't know how they were going to live in the future.
This day happened to be the first time it snowed this year.
Light snow was falling, and many people were watching.
The Ninth Prince Consort held the unconscious Ninth Princess, followed by a palace maid, and walked out of the city gate step by step, slowly disappearing from everyone's sight.
