Qi Zheng pondered for a moment, then frowned and asked, "Does His Royal Highness agree?"
Shen Zikai put one hand on Qi Zheng's shoulder, with a hesitant expression on his face, "This matter is just the idea of a few adults, and I haven't told the empress or His Royal Highness yet."
So, do you want him to persuade the Queen and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince
Qi Zheng said, "I will go to the palace tomorrow to meet the empress. If the empress does not agree, even if we really... it will be useless. Maybe we will cause trouble to the upper body and be used instead."
The Taoist priest was introduced by Prime Minister Sun, so he must already be a member of the Sun family. If they are given an opportunity, they will not only be implicated, but even the queen and prince will be framed.
"Who is that Taoist priest? Has anyone investigated?" Qi Zheng asked in a deep voice.
A trace of disgust flashed across Shen Xiao's eyes, "That smelly Taoist is surnamed Zhou. He is the head of a sect near Tianxuan Mountain. He is very famous in the local area. People there call him Zhou Zhenren and say that he will be an immortal sooner or later. .”
Generally, Taoist priests in Taoist temples would spend money to increase their reputation, so as to attract more believers and pilgrims to Taoist temples. Qi Zheng was noncommittal about what Zhou Zhenren was capable of.
"The emperor is obeying Zhou Zhenren's words now!" Shen Zikai said angrily.
Qi Zheng didn't expect the matter to be so serious. No matter what, he must go to the palace tomorrow to meet the queen, so he can decide what to do next.
Weng son-in-law, brother-in-law and brother-in-law discussed for a while, and Shen Ziqiao asked someone to bring them food and wine, only to realize that it was Xiangnoon before they knew it.
After noon, Lu Jiasheng came.
Lu Jiasheng used to be Du Ji's military adviser. After Du Ji was murdered and died in battle, Du's army existed in name only. In order to avenge Du Ji, he joined Shen Xiao, and later. Shen Xiao disarmed and returned to the field, Qi Zheng personally went to invite Lu Jiasheng to join the staff of His Highness the Crown Prince.
"This matter should be settled quickly, and we can't be dragging our feet, otherwise we will lose the opportunity..." Lu Jiasheng had already reached a consensus with Shen Xiao. They both thought that it was definitely not a good thing for Prime Minister Sun to bring Zhenren Zhou to the emperor's side suddenly. Maybe they were plotting something .
Since they have no way of knowing, then make a quick decision to achieve their goals.
"I'll go see the prince immediately." Qi Zheng said.
Lu Jiasheng said, "I'll go with you."
Before, because he didn't know what Qi Zheng was thinking, Lu Jiasheng had never dared to mention this matter to His Highness the Crown Prince. Now that Qi Zheng agreed, it would not be difficult to convince His Highness the Crown Prince.
Qi Zheng sent someone to tell Shen Ziqiao that there was something urgent to do, and he left with Lu Jiasheng first.
Shen Ziqiao was a little surprised. Isn't Qi Zheng still taking a bath? What's the rush? She went to find Shen Zikai, but Shen Zikai spoke vaguely and refused to explain to her at all. It seemed that the matter was not simple.
She didn't ask any further, thinking about going back tonight to ask Qi Zheng carefully.
soon. She bid farewell to Shen Xiao and returned to Qi's house.
In the winter afternoon, the sun was warm and warm, making people drowsy. Shen Ziqiao leaned on the long couch, and excitedly called the black bamboo and green bamboo, and asked them to talk about whether anyone would come to the Qianlin courtyard today to cherish the fragrance and cherish the jade.
"Young Madam is really amazing." Mo Zhu said with a smile. "As soon as you left, the third young master arrived. Not only did he openly ask Yingying and Yingmei to follow him, but he also ordered the servants not to tell you, as if he was the head of the family. It took about two hours. Cherry and Yingmei just came back with a happy face, completely different from the look of the previous concubine..."
Green Bamboo followed suit. "Not to mention, those two little hoofs asked Mrs. Meng to change rooms. Those who wanted to live in a single room said that they were no more than third-class maids, and they had to be treated as first-class. Be the master."
Shen Ziqiao laughed loudly, it's a pity that I didn't see the triumphant expressions of those two little maids after being coaxed by Qi Rui.
"Young Madam, you can still laugh, these three young masters are too outrageous, actually... actually hit the idea on the maid in the yard of my sister-in-law, and she is not afraid of being laughed at when it spreads." Hongyu said angrily.
"Except for the old lady and the Duke of the Qi family, no one in the Qi family regards Qi Zheng as the real eldest son of the eldest son. In the past, the elder master... those servants who didn't have long eyes in the family, they only regarded him as the second young master and the eldest grandson of the first son. How many grievances I have suffered." When Mo Zhu thought of Qi Rui bullying Qianlin Court without any rules, she was so angry that she wanted to argue with him.
Shen Ziqiao quickly comforted Mo Zhu, "Don't be angry, don't be angry, who can bully you young masters, since the third young master has called Yingmei and Cherry away for so long, these two maids have ignored my words, so let them grow up As a long-term memory, let them kneel in the courtyard, and the courtyard door opens."
"Young Madam, after all, they were sent by Madam..." Hongyu was worried that if she punished them like this, she would slap Xiao Gu in the face.
But Shen Ziqiao just wanted to slap Little Gu in the face, "It's okay, if you don't do this, Madam will continue to send people to us."
Mo Zhu and Lv Zhu looked at each other, they didn't expect that Shen Ziqiao would dare to oppose Xiao Gu's openly.
Even if you offend Madam... Ah, no, anyway, Madam has always disliked the people in Qianlinyuan, so she might as well be a little more displeased.
"Slaves, let them receive the punishment." Mo Zhu said crisply, finally understanding that the eldest young lady told her to tell the maids of Qianlin Courtyard not to leave the courtyard casually, to abide by the rules, and to do anything If you want to leave, you have to tell Mrs. Meng.
Cherry and Yingmei regard themselves as treasures, and look down on them who are also current people, so how could they bow their heads to Lady Meng.
"Miss..." Hongyu looked at her worriedly.
Hongying's face was full of excitement, "Miss, this servant is going to watch."
Shen Ziqiao lowered her head and took a sip of the clear tea brewed by Tieguanyin, her mouth lingered, it was really good tea.
After a while, Cherry and Yingmei's angry voices came from outside, and the voice sounded a bit shrill, "Mo Zhu, you lowly maidservant, you dare to treat us like this, let go, do you know where we came from? We are members of the Third Young Master!"
"This is the Qianlin Courtyard, where the young master and his wife belong. What are you doing with the third young master?" Mo Zhu asked with a sneer, "Don't kneel down to accept the punishment!"
Yingmei puffed her chest and refused to kneel down, she looked at Mo Zhu with sneer and contempt on her face, "Don't forget who is in charge of this family, the third young master has a noble status, how can anyone else compare to it, I advise you to be sensible Come on, don't ask for trouble when the time comes!"
The voice of speaking is completely unrestrained, and Shen Ziqiao in the room is not taken seriously at all.
It's no wonder that these maids don't look down on Qi Zheng, the young master. Qi Zheng has never really gained power in the Qi family for so many years. He has been a fool for more than 20 years, and his status is better than that of ordinary managers. , I was not stupid after that, and went to the Northwest not long after. The servants in the family have not realized that Qi Zheng is different from before, and still feel that he dare not go against the other two young masters, let alone offend his wife.
They are maids sent by Madam, hitting them is slapping Madam in the face.
Cherry snorted, delicately holding the silk handkerchief to press the sweat that was not present on her forehead, "The sun is so fierce, if our skin gets tanned, the third young master will not spare you!"
Mo Zhu laughed back angrily, "What are you still doing in a daze, why don't you push these two sluts down!"
"Tsk tsk, you are really delicate and expensive, and you are afraid of melting in the sun. You two slaves seem to be more delicate than your master. Don't forget, what did the young lady explain yesterday, and what did you do today? There are many, don’t think that we have to offer you as gods if you bring out your wife.”
Yingmei poohed, "Young Madam wants to punish us, but have you asked the Young Master? Don't..."
Snapped! There was a palm print on Yingmei's fair and delicate cheek, which stunned her.
"What's the matter, if the eldest and young lady wants to deal with you, you have to weigh your identities first? What are your identities? The masters of the family? Where did the nobles come from? What a shame to shout!" The assailant wanted to come out and see The lively Hongying, hearing the contempt of these two lowly maidservants towards Shen Ziqiao, didn't think that the third lady was the eldest wife at all, Hongying couldn't listen to it, so she just called her.
Mo Zhu secretly applauded in her heart, she has long wanted to do this!
"You bitch, how dare you hit me!" Yingmei screamed, wanting to jump over and fight Hongying with her life.
Because she and Cherry were good-looking, the third young master wanted to take pity on them, even the madam never scolded them loudly, and today they were humiliated by an idiot that everyone looked down upon.
Long before Qi Zheng got married in Qianlin Courtyard, some of the little Gu’s eyeliners had been kicked out long ago. Now, except for Cherry and Yingmei, they are all Qi Zheng’s trustworthy people. Don't worry about it, I pressed the two maids on the ground forcefully, and mercilessly greeted them on invisible places on their bodies.
Yingmei and Cherry screamed in pain.
Mo Zhu looked back into the room, she thought that Shen Ziqiao was someone who would be afraid of Little Gu, but now it seems that this young lady is really extraordinary.
It's no wonder that the young master regards her as the most important person in his heart.
Luzhu looked at her, and both of them smiled slightly, feeling happy that the young master was finally no longer alone.
"Chen Shi, what are you, you dare to treat us like this, the third young master will not let you go!" Cherry shouted.
Mo Zhu lowered his face, and ordered to the rough envoy next to him, "Slap your mouth!"
The old lady slapped her across the face immediately, and within two slaps, the cherry's cheeks were swollen and sore!
"Stop! Stop! What are you doing, how can you hit someone casually!" A man wearing an ivory-white meticulous landscape round-neck robe strode in, yelled at the beating woman, walked over and lifted his foot Just kicked over.
The woman was kicked in the thigh, and suddenly fell backwards to the ground.
