Imperial Uncle

Chapter 27

Views:

After noon, Ah Jiu stayed with Wen Xiangxiang for lunch, and then watched Wen Xiangxiang leave. Ah Jiu felt very quiet standing at the door of the study. Not to mention that no courtiers came today, and no one came to see her. Could it be because of the relationship between Xiu Chao? But it wasn't like that in the past.

Li Yu didn't come to see her, Fengge's all the old people are also in the future, and even the uncle has never come to see her, thinking that it was last night's incident will only make people around her think that she is a frivolous empress.

Ah Jiu sat at the entrance of the hall, dressed in casual clothes, with an ordinary bun, holding her chin and waiting for the little Dezi who went out to investigate the situation to return.

After waiting for a long time, she felt bored, so she held the token in her hand and threw it over. If the answer that Xiao Dezi brought her was satisfactory, she would go out and mess around with Shen Qinghe. If she was not satisfied, she would go. Find Yan Chuqing.

As Ah Jiu was throwing vigorously, Xiao Dezi carried the hem of his clothes from a distance and ran over while shouting, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Ah Jiu stood up and grabbed Xiao Dezi's sleeve, "Speak slowly."

Xiao Dezi breathed a sigh of relief, bowed his body and smiled slyly, "Your Majesty is still wise, those courtiers are talking to the prince in the prince's palace right now!"

"Oh!" Ah Jiu nodded, rubbed his chin, and said thoughtfully, "One by one, take a good rest when they are not in the court, and even go to chat with the uncle, I really don't take me seriously."

Xiao Dezi was a little angry when he heard what he said. He was about to persuade him, but A Jiuyi waved his hand and interrupted, "Since they don't take us seriously, we don't have to take them seriously."

Xiao Dezi was still wondering, Ajiu walked straight forward, and Xiao Dezi could not only follow.

A Jiu came out very smoothly, and went straight to Shen Qinghe's Matchmaker's House. The so-called Xiang Yun at the front desk took A Jiu directly to the next door of Shen Qinghe's room because he knew A Jiu. Waiting here.

When Ah Jiu came, Shen Qinghe happened to be asking for media for others. After waiting for Xiang Yun to leave, she squatted in the corner of the room and eavesdropped on the sounds next door.

Xiao Dezi actually persuaded him for a long time, saying that this was not in line with the emperor's rules, so he was scolded by Ah Jiu and squatted in another corner.

Ah Jiu squatted in the corner and listened. In fact, the compartment of the Hongniang Pavilion was not a so-called wall, it was just like bamboo and wood, so it was not difficult to eavesdrop.

Ah Jiu got closer to hear it clearly, and then heard a chaotic voice, and then Shen Qing and Yunyou spoke.

"Girl, can you say it again?"

"I said that the person I want is like Fu Yan, King of Huai Jin!" Ajiu narrowed her eyes, the uncle was really too ostentatious, which made people fall in love, the dream lover of the entire imperial capital.

A Jiu suddenly felt deeply that winning the uncle was not a difficult task, but a fundamentally impossible task. A Jiu sighed deeply, maybe she would become the love rival of the entire imperial capital.

When she came back to her senses, the conversation on the other side had been suspended, and then when she came back to her senses, Shen Qinghe pushed the door open and came in.

A Jiu Yi Gulu got up and looked at Shen Qing with a smile.

Shen Qinghe paused, "Do I want to say hello?"

Ah Jiu waved her hand, "No need, call me Ah Jiu! You don't need to be so disciplined."

Then he sat down with Shen Qinghe, and the servant left after refilling the tea, with only Xiao Dezi serving.

Shen Qing and Ming glanced at Xiao Dezi several times, and Ah Jiu asked suspiciously, "Why are you staring at my servant all the time?"

Shen Qinghe leaned closer and asked in a low voice, "Is this really a slave?!"

A Jiuyi frowned, and before she understood what it meant, Xiao Dezi, who was accompanying him behind him, spoke in a pinch, "Miss Shen can scold me or beat me, but you can't doubt me!"

Shen Qinghe was so embarrassed by this sound, he could only shrink his neck and bow his hands in apology, "I'm sorry! I'm just curious!"

"It's alright." Ah Jiu also smiled and waved her hand meaninglessly, if it wasn't for this sentence from Xiao Dezi, she really didn't understand the meaning of Shen Qinghe's words.

Then Shen Qinghe changed the subject with a liberating expression, "Ah Jiu, don't you know that people come to my matchmaker every day and ask me to ask them about the media."

"The business of the Matchmaker is so bad?" Ah Jiu poured a cup of tea, looked at Shen Qinghe and the empty teacup in front of her, and poured a cup for her as well. Frightened, Shen Qinghe hurriedly stretched out his hands to take it.

"I don't know about Ah Jiu!" Shen Qinghe took a sip of tea, "Among the ten people who come here, nine out of ten have listed the conditions like King Huai Jin. King Huai Jin is so unique, where can I find it?"

"Oh..." The teacup that Ah Jiu put beside his mouth paused again. Before Ah Jiu could speak, Xiao Dezi hurriedly replied.

"Uncle Huang can only belong to our family, Ah Jiu."

When Xiao Dezi said this, he was quite proud, but the next second, Ah Jiu's foot kicked on Xiao Dezi's leg, followed by a wailing cry from Xiao Dezi.

"Uncle's reputation in the imperial capital is really great." Ah Jiu sighed.

"No, the dream lover of every woman in the city! She's better than our stars!"

Shen Qinghe frowned at A Jiu who said a word, only then did Shen Qinghe know that he had spoken, and scratched his head embarrassedly.

"I'm so impulsive..."

"It's okay! I understand."

Shen Qinghe smiled, remembering what Du Ying had said to her over the past few days, Du Ying had already told A Jiu all, Shen Qinghe was fortunate that A Jiu didn't tell them to confuse the public, didn't blame them, and believed them.

And Du Ying also mentioned another thing.

It's about the female officer.

Normally, Du Ying would hide behind Prince Dun, but she became half mature that day, and told her about the female official very solemnly.

"Sister Qinghe, I don't know if I should say something or not?"

She smiled and looked at Du Ying, motioned her to say, but Shen Qinghe might have guessed something with such hesitation now, but Du Ying was a relative to her.

"A-Jiu should have come to see you and told you about the female official."

Shen Qing nodded and understood, "That's what happened!" Immediately, he responded, "Ah Ying, you won't be a lobbyist for the little empress?"

Du Ying was obviously a little uncomfortable, but after hesitating for a long time, she said, "Sister Qinghe, I know that some things are really hard to talk about, but I really need your help."

Shen Qinghe did not interrupt, but waited for Du Ying to finish speaking.

"I didn't think about how serious these things were before, but now I've been married to the palace for ten years, and I have a slight understanding." Du Ying looked at Shen Qingping's indifferent face, and continued after a pause, "The prince is naturally indifferent to fame and fortune. Unwilling to compete for the throne, Ajiu ascended the throne at a young age, but you can also see Qing and sister, Ajiu is young, and the ministers in the court are all facing Fu Yan, the king of Huaijin, Ajiu has been secretly summoning ministers, but in the end there is no fruit."

Shen Qinghe nodded, "So what?"

"It's rare for Ah Jiu to meet Sister Qinghe. You have a lot of ideas and you're smart. If it's for the female officials, you shouldn't lose to those men. If I'm not stupid, I'll use it for Ah Jiu, but the fact is just the opposite. The prince who is involved in the affairs of the state has to reach out to take care of it, for the sake of our Chen family." Du Ying said very movingly.

Shen Qinghe thought about it for a while, and put the importance of the matter down, "I can't fight against those scheming ministers!"

Du Ying pursed her lips, "Ajiu will definitely take care of you."

Shen Qinghe didn't say anything, just glanced at Du Ying, "It's not easy for us to come here, why should we destroy the history here?"

"But we've already destroyed it!" Du Ying looked at Shen Qinghe sincerely, "Since Du Ying met Prince Dun, since this emperor had the Matchmaker's House, we have already existed, even if there is no record in later generations, we are real existed."

The result was that Du Ying persuaded Shen Qinghe, which surprised Shen Qinghe. Du Ying, who has always been timid and fearful, was able to use these serious words to persuade her to speak the truth. She must have done a lot of effort to persuade her.

Since Ah Jiu knew that Du Ying had said it in advance, he opened up the conversation, "Actually, I came here today to ask about another matter, which is the female official."

A Jiu looked at Shen Qing and Ming Yu Xin's face, and probably guessed her choice.

"Well, I know. Du Ying told me."

"So, do you agree?" Ah Jiu asked tentatively.

Shen Qinghe also kept a little heart, so when Ah Jiu asked this, she did not rush to agree to her, but went around in circles.

"I can be your female official and your subordinate. If I have a certain position in the government, I will definitely stand by your side, but I also have times when I am not smart, but..." Shen Qinghe said and said Slowly stopped.

"Just what?"

Shen Qinghe suddenly became serious, "That is, I will participate in the government but not intrigue. I still want to run the Matchmaker's House outside the palace, so I can go in and out at will, and Fu Yan also knows me, in case Fu Yan also knows me. Yan sees me not pleasing to the eye, you must protect me and prevent me from having an accident."

"there is none left?"

Shen Qinghe nodded.

Ajiu thought for a while, then nodded, "I promise you. But there is one more thing," Ajiu said after a pause, "You are familiar with the uncle, and I will set up a female official's office in a few days, and the official list will be published. , you begged the uncle to recommend you to take up the post."

Shen Qinghe was shocked, "Ajiu, are you kidding me?"

"I'm not kidding. Although Uncle Huang is often indifferent, he is still a person. He is good most of the time. You have known him for many years and he knows your shrewdness. Of course, he will not embarrass you. I can't protect myself, and it's difficult for you to take office, so I have to rely on Uncle Huang."

Shen Qing and Mu were stunned. Although she and Fu Yan knew each other, she was too embarrassed to speak about such matters, but now she has promised to be Ah Jiu's person, so she could only secretly think about how to speak.

Ah Jiu took out a palm-sized book from her sleeve and handed it to Shen Qinghe.

Shen Qinghe took it suspiciously, opened it and looked at it, he couldn't help but be speechless.

"This is the small portrait of the officials in the imperial court that Uncle Huang drew for me when I was young and ignorant. The following is a detailed introduction to the character of the official position. Each person marked with red handwriting is the person of Uncle Huang, ink color. The ones marked by the handwriting are my people." Ah Jiu still felt a little guilty when she said that, because she saw that the places Shen Qinghe had read were full of red handwriting.

Shen Qinghe was also shocked. On the one hand, he was shocked by the huge power of Fu Yan. On the other hand, he was shocked that someone like Fu Yan would draw this small portrait for A Jiu, and even the hair movements were so similar.

"My subjects are still too few."

A Jiu glimpsed Shen Qinghe and turned to the pages of several people recorded in ink handwriting at the back, and said with a sigh.

After Shen Qinghe turned over Wen Xiangxiang, he couldn't help but sighed at Wen Xiangxiang, "Ajiu has a person like Wen Xiangxiang around, no wonder he has become so rude."

"What did you say?"

Shen Qinghe waved his hand, "Nothing to say!" Then he skipped Wen Xiangxiang and turned directly to Li Yu's page.

Shen Qinghe felt that something was not right, so he pointed the book to Ah Jiu, "I have seen this person before."

Ah Jiu looked at Li Yu and then remembered, it was probably the night when Li Yu came back, when he went to the palace to find her, when he found out that she was in the Hongniang Pavilion, he came to look for her, "It should be when I came to find you a few days ago, he followed me after I left. Come here!"

Shen Qinghe nodded, "Yes, but he came here once yesterday and asked me to match him."

Ah Jiu frowned, Li Yuke never cared about these things, and he was away all year round, "Why? Is it the girl from that family again?"

Ah Jiu thought about it, isn't there still a girl named A Xing by his side? Could it be her

"I don't know why he came. I only know that when he came, he made a lot of money and asked me to match him, but I think it's more like a missing person notice?"

"Can you show me the conditions you wrote down?"

Seeing that A Jiu was in a hurry, Shen Qinghe sent someone to get it.

Ajiu took the book in Shen Qinghe's hand, turned to the next page of Li Yu, and pointed at the woman above, "Did this woman come when Li Yu came?"

Shen Qinghe shook his head, "I didn't see it."

"Shen Qinghe, sir, it's easier for you not to take up a job yet. Help me find out the identity of this person!"

"A-Jiu, you really think highly of me!" Shen Qinghe wanted to cry without tears, "I'm just a matchmaker's house here, not an intelligence bureau?"

Ah Jiu patted the back of her hand and comforted, "It will come sooner or later."

After she finished speaking, she saw Xiang Yun took the record of Li Yu's visit to Ah Jiu. Ah Jiu took it and didn't read it, but told Shen Qinghe to memorize the small portrait in the book, and then left.

When he left, Ah Jiu still warned heavily, "If the situation in this imperial capital changes drastically, you are not allowed to think about it."

This sentence provoked Shen Qinghe to think, this empress is not as incompetent as rumored in the imperial capital, but far more shrewd than she imagined. With her last sentence, Shen Qinghe must know that she is probably going to stir up trouble. It's been a storm.
