As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the laughter of two children coming from the yard. Yu Niang hurriedly went out, put her finger between her lips, gave Jin Ming a slight salute, led them into the house, and then whispered: "Grandma just took medicine and went to sleep. She is sweating now, please don't leave." Wake her up. Where is the young Marquis? But is there something that's holding her back?"
It's no wonder that Yu Niang is confused. Jin Fengju's love for Fu Qiuning can be seen clearly by anyone with eyes. She originally thought that when the other party heard that Qiu Ning was sick, she would fly over with wings, but she didn't know that was not the case. Instead, she only sent Jin Ming, which made her feel a little uneasy.
"I'm not busy." Jin Ming's cheeks were full of joy, and the two children were grinning almost behind their ears. Even though their mother was sick, their smiles never disappeared. Therefore, Yujie, the Yuniang, was surprised and asked questions. Jin Ming told the story of the Holy Emperor's three consecutive grace decrees. Only Yu Jie and Yu Niang were dumbfounded.
"This... this is really unexpected." After a long while, Yu Niang said happily: "I have never heard that the father and son of a family actually have two titles. So, our young marquis, no, he is also a marquis. Can you move out of the house and live somewhere else?"
Jin Ming said with a smile: "This shows the majesty and glory of God's grace. How much honor does the emperor give to our family? I am the Duke of Jingguo, and I am the Marquis. In the future, the hereditary position of the Duke can be given to the uncle, and with me With these achievements, it is not impossible for him to be granted the title of Duke or even Prince in the future. This is because of His Majesty's sympathy, so as to prevent the eldest and the young Marquis from getting into trouble because of their titles. Listen, Your Majesty, you can actually do this for us. The young Marquis is so considerate. Isn’t it because of God’s grace or what? Even for a few princes, it’s just like this.”
Yu Jie laughed at the side and said, "Isn't that true? I think the emperor might as well accept our young marquis as his adopted son. Such thoughtful care." As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Zangjiao was heard chirping: "What is this? Yes. There are many, many things placed in the yard. Ten thousand silver and five thousand gold. I just asked my brother, but he couldn't tell me what the number was. He only said that it was a lot of silver. We wouldn't be able to spend it all in ten lifetimes. What's the price? There is gold, all glittering gold ingots and gold bars, as well as those jewelry and antiques, which dazzled my eyes... "
"How do you know?" Yu Niang scratched Jin Zangjiao's face, pursed her lips and smiled: "It's just a few words in the imperial edict, it seems like you saw it."
"The girl went to the front to look for me, and I actually caught up and saw it." But Jin Ming laughed and said: "These gifts from the emperor naturally need to be verified. There are more than 20 servants, and they have been counted for half an hour. Still. The Second Master and Uncle Feng have also been promoted to official positions. If they can make some achievements in the future, it is not impossible to be knighted... "
The more they talked outside, the more lively they became. They had long forgotten that Fu Qiuning was still sleeping inside. Until Jin Fengju rushed over. As soon as he entered the door, he saw several people sitting around talking and laughing, and asked hurriedly: "Where is Qiu Ning?"
Yu Niang and Yu Jie hurriedly stood up and saluted, and said at the same time: "Congratulations to the young Marquis. Grandma just drank the medicine and fell asleep until now..." Before they finished speaking, Jin Fengju said displeasedly: "Since Qiu Ning is here. Why are you still talking and laughing so loudly while she is asleep? I heard it outside, how can she sleep peacefully?"
Yu Niang Yu Jie then remembered that she was only focused on being happy and had forgotten that her master was still ill. Looking at Jin Fengju's face that looked gloomy, she couldn't help but feel a little scared. Suddenly I heard a cough coming from inside, and then Fu Qiuning's somewhat hoarse voice came over and said: "It really seems to be Master Hou. He is domineering as soon as he comes. I heard the excitement they said, and I was addicted to it. You destroyed it as soon as you came."
As soon as he heard Fu Qiuning speak, the young Marquis's face immediately turned cloudy. He opened the door and walked in with a smile: "How dare I act arrogantly in your place? How about it? Are you feeling better? How come you are so good? Did you catch the wind and cold? You were too careless." As he said this, he stepped forward and stretched out his hand to explore Fu Qiuning's forehead. He shook his head and said, "It's still a bit hot. Fortunately, when I asked Eunuch Liu to return to the palace just now, he asked Liang Liang for me. The imperial doctor is here, he is the best at treating wind-cold fever."
Fu Qiuning's heart moved, and he felt warm affection flowing in his heart. He secretly thought that he had encountered such a great happy event, and he still remembered to ask a doctor for me, which showed that he really cared about me. It is very difficult for men in this era to do this. As she stood up slowly, Jin Fengju hurriedly took a big soft pillow and put it against the wall, helped her sit down, and said with a smile: "She is so sick that her face has turned sallow. She doesn't look ugly, but looks more pitiful and cute." I feel better, but I'm just a little haggard. I need to recuperate after this illness."
Fu Qiuning smiled and said: "What can I do to make up for it? Since you came last spring, and you have brought things from time to time, I have lived a comfortable life. I only feel that I have gained more than ten kilograms of meat. I just want to lose weight at this time." .”
Jin Fengju shook his head in disapproval and said, "Nonsense. I heard that the King of Chu had such a slim waist. How many people starved to death in the palace?" In the Chu Feng Kingdom a thousand years ago, just because the king liked slim and beautiful women, many women were vying for starvation. If you hold a slim waist, you can win the favor of the Holy One, but in the end, you will starve to death. Now I see that if you gain one point, you will lose one point, and if you lose one point, you will become thinner. Maybe it would be better to be a little plumper, but you are not allowed to lose weight. "
These words were similar to a couple's teasing in the boudoir. Fu Qiuning smiled slightly, lowered his head, and did not continue the topic. Instead, he said softly: "I forgot to congratulate the Marquis. Today's reward is really generous."
Jin Fengju smiled and said: "Those corrupt officials in Yangzhou ransacked their homes one by one and confiscated nearly ten million yuan in total. That's why the old man was happy and gave me such a reward. On the other hand, it was also because my brother-in-law had restrained his behavior in recent years and did not show any sharpness. , compared to the domineering Prince Hong and Prince Lie, they seem a little pitiful and aggrieved. The emperor is taking the opportunity to reward us to help him increase his power. Otherwise, you can see, after this incident, those who are hesitant in the court will The ministers will definitely turn around."
Fu Qiuning smiled and said: "So, do you think the emperor is in love with Prince Yirong?"
Jin Fengju nodded and said: "Looking at the emperor's actions in supporting our family, we should be inseparable." After that, he said to Fu Qiuning: "You are sick now, don't worry about it. Listen, your voice is Still a little mute.”
Fu Qiuning thought that if this was the case, this emperor would be different from Emperor Kangxi, but not necessarily different. Who can guarantee that Emperor Kangxi didn't already have his mind set on the Fourth Master a few years ago, but just kept it secret? Isn't this the same for the old emperor? Giving various favors to the three sons makes people think that they all have the ability to compete for the crown prince and secretly fight with each other. Yep, no wonder the emperors are perverts. This is his own son, not a cricket fight.
Seeing that she was silent and concentrating, Jin Fengju did not bother her and sat quietly for a while. When he arrived, he felt that the atmosphere was warmer. Suddenly he heard Luocui's voice outside the door: "Is the young marquis here?" He knew that it was Imperial Doctor Liang who came. He hurriedly welcomed her out in person and said with a smile: "Did Dr. Liang go to the old lady's room?"
Doctor Liang smiled and said: "Eunuch Liu didn't explain clearly. He only said that someone in the house had a cold. The subordinate thought it was the old lady. It was about the Chinese New Year, and the old lady contracted a cold, and she was worried about the little Marquis, so she almost died. Fortunately, the young marquis returned safely and the old man escaped. After hearing this, the official said he had a recurrence of his old illness and hurried over. As a result, the old lady was eating oranges there and sent this girl again. After you brought me here, I found out that it was the second grandma who caught the cold."
Because Jin Fengju was familiar with him, he brought him in directly. Fortunately, Fu Qiuning was just lying on the kang with his clothes on. Now he sat up and put on a cloak. When he saw the imperial doctor coming, he handed him his hand. Jin Fengju personally After putting a handkerchief on her, Doctor Liang checked her pulse for a while, stood up, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, just wait for me to prescribe a prescription to spread it out. I have been eating lightly for the past two days, and I won't be able to eat for a few days." Enough."
Jin Fengju thanked him, sent him out personally, and rewarded him with five taels of silver. Doctor Liang's eyebrows curled up as he smiled. Here, Jin Ming was asked to grab medicine, and then he said to Yu Jie: "I have been staying here for the past few days. When your grandma's illness is cured, you can prepare my bedding for me when I leave."
Fu Qiuning said hurriedly: "You don't have to be like this. It's not a serious illness. Doctor Liang just said that you will be fine in three to five days. Your injury is just right, and now that you have received so many rewards, how can the emperor let you go?" The coolie will definitely be busy when he has the opportunity, and he has to go to court in the morning. It is several miles across the garden. No matter what, you should go back quickly and let me have some peace and quiet. "
Jin Fengju smiled and said: "I usually want to stay here for one more day, but I just regret that there is no reason. I finally came across such an opportunity. Don't even think about getting rid of me. If it is really inconvenient to think about me, that's fine, just move back to the backyard." It will be convenient for everyone if we go, what do you think?"
Fu Qiuning was silent, and after a while he turned around and said, "You are getting worse and worse now. Why do you only think about asking me to move in? You can't seem to remember a single word of what you said in the past."
Jin Fengju smiled and said, "I'm just joking. Don't take it seriously. If you don't want to go, I won't force you." After saying this, he secretly made up his mind and just had to wait for a suitable time to implement it.
After staying in Wanfengxuan for three to five days, Jiang Wanying, Xu family, Huo family, etc. were all very angry. They all thought that this Fu Qiuning was not a simple person, and he had bewitched me like this. Jiang Wanying was very scheming, just thinking about her idea in her heart. Xu, an outspoken person, had cursed many times in front of the servants.
