When he went to Prince Dun's Mansion, Wen Xiangxiang went upside down. A few days ago, he was stigmatized by the monarch and was rewarded by A Jiu, so that today when A Jiu invited him to go with the carriage, he couldn't sit, and could only choose. Walking together outside the carriage, Ah Jiu looked at him several times from the carriage, and finally he could only silently pull down the curtain of the carriage.
Prince Dun’s mansion is on the West Street of the Imperial Capital. She could almost fall asleep in a carriage, not to mention Wen Xiangxiang, who was walking. At the very least, he had to lose his butt and legs, so he was about to arrive at Prince Dun. When she was at the mansion, she deliberately looked out of the carriage.
But Ah Jiu found out that she was wrong. She underestimated Wen Xiangxiang's way of doing things. She didn't realize when Wen Xiangxiang hired a reclining chair to accompany him along the way. He lay on the reclining chair and slept soundly.
Ah Jiu put down the curtain and sighed, she was still too simple, and when she arrived at the gate of the palace, she was dazed and carried down by Xiao Dezi.
On the other hand, Wen Xiangxiang stretched a big lazy waist beside her, and then followed her into the palace with her butt upside down.
Prince Dun is Ajiu's uncle. When Ajiu's mother and concubine married into the palace earlier, this idle elder brother entered the palace with Ajiu's mother. The previous emperor loved Ajiu's mother and concubine very much. So he fell in love with Wu Jiwu, and made this brother a Prince of Dun. After the death of the first emperor, after the generation of Ah Jiu, he didn’t have to go to Ah Jiu’s dynasty to sit idle all day, and now he is still Prince of Dun.
When Ah Jiu entered the mansion, several servants who often saw Ah Jiu immediately recognized Ah Jiu and respectfully kowtowed and led Ah Jiu into the lobby.
Ajiu was sitting in the lobby, and the servants served tea respectfully. Uncle Li, the housekeeper of the palace, greeted Ajiu and Wen Xiangxiang, and started to send servants to inform the prince and princess, and then withdrew.
Wen Xiangxiang slowly sat on the padded chair, took a sip of tea, and said leisurely, "Your Majesty, I really didn't say that, look at where the entire palace reveals the sadness of the little prince being smashed, not at all. There is no grief, even a housekeeper is like a normal person, your Majesty does not know, I was rewarded by His Majesty, and our uncle Wen cried for several nights."
Ah Jiu paused, frowning at Wen Xiangxiang, although he said that Wen Xiangxiang was eloquent, but he was indeed right, where does the entire palace reveal a trace of sadness? She sighed, if nothing really happened, her uncle made it out of thin air, then this is the crime of deceiving the king.
Before her thoughts could be implemented, she heard her uncle's cry coming from outside the lobby. She frowned, and the tea cup brought to her mouth stopped, and then saw her uncle come in holding the door frame.
Prince Dun looked like old tears. When he stepped into the door, he raised his sleeves and wiped the corners of his reddish eyes. Then he went to Ah Jiu and respectfully called to His Majesty. His voice trembled with three parts crying and seven parts trembling. Nine are a little moved.
But Ah Jiu could also see that the corners of her uncle's reddish eyes were rubbed with her hands just now, and even the old tears on her face started to flow from her eyes. In such a situation, Prince Dun could still move her by crying. It's really hard work for my uncle's acting skills.
Ah Jiu got up and helped Prince Dun vacantly, and said softly, "Uncle, why do you have to give such a big gift, it's hard to sleep peacefully when a widow hears Xiao Dezi talking about the little prince, so I immediately rushed over. already."
Wen Xiangxiang listened to A Jiu's mourning voice, and the hand holding the cup trembled. He couldn't help sighing that these two uncles and nephews were really good actors, and then watched the two of them go back and forth.
"Uncle, the widow is here to see it, so take me to see the little prince. If the injury is serious, you can call some imperial doctors in the palace to come and see it. Anyway, this little prince was given by the widow at the beginning. ." Ah Jiu spoke politely, but Wen Xiangxiang, who was beside him, was stunned for a moment.
Prince Dun frowned and stopped crying. He didn't know how to react. He felt that it was neither not, nor did he agree, so he could only droop his mouth.
Ah Jiu glanced at Wen Xiangxiang who stood up, "Aiqing, come with me." Turning around and pushing the stunned uncle, "Uncle, lead the way!"
"..." Prince Dun was stunned, looking at the prepared A Jiu and Wen Xiangxiang, A Jiu is the honor of the ninety-five and cannot be disobeyed. The original prince was given by A Jiu, and Wen Xiangxiang was a treacherous little historian. When he was only 20 years old, he inherited the historians of the Zheng Kingdom. If he didn't take them with him, he didn't know what to write in the library. After thinking about it again and again, he finally took them to the little prince's room carefully.
Fortunately, what Prince Dun was thinking was not heard by Ajiu. If Ajiu heard it, Ajiu would definitely think that what her uncle said was extremely right. Wen Xiangxiang is indeed a treacherous historian. I think that many officials' bad behaviors were based on words. The method spread to Ah Jiu's hands.
Although Wen Xiangxiang is a bit unreliable and hurts Ajiu more, he is still a relatively loyal historian.
I knew earlier that in this huge imperial capital, the position of the historian is not restricted, and only the immediate supervisor of the historian is the emperor. The historian's words do not need to go through the three divisions of justice, and any information obtained can be directly submitted to the emperor for processing.
The loyal and good writers from generation to generation are all literary ministers, and historians for several generations have been trained by the writers, and Wen Xiangxiang is no exception.
He has been trained as a historian since he was a child, but why did Wen Xiangxiang’s generation take office at the age of fifteen? Ah Jiu can only sum it up in one sentence, that is, Wen Xiangxiang’s father has been unwilling to govern since the death of the late emperor. In the fifth year of his ascension to the throne, Ah Jiu handed over the official office to Wen Xiangxiang and wandered the world.
Ah Jiu heard about the latter. I heard that Wen Xiangxiang's father once fell in love with the life of Tianya Swordsman when he was young, but when Wen Xiangxiang's grandfather was still there, he would not let his father go out until his grandfather died. After the death of the first emperor, his father left more and more madly.
No matter how good the family genes are, there are always a few species that have been twisted out. Wen Xiangxiang's father is, and so is Wen Xiangxiang.
Wen Xiangxiang has been conscientiously harming Ah Jiu since he took over as the historian. Of course, he has suffered a lot, but he still has some skills.
Since he has been in office for five years and since the new policy with Fu Yan, he has dealt with many unscrupulous officials, all because he can squat down in every corner of the imperial capital every moment and record every official he encounters with them. of every sentence.
As a result, Ajiu has dismissed a large number of unscrupulous officials when he elected new ministers in recent years, and most of them are more or less related to the uncle. This is related to Wen Xiangxiang's purpose, that is, No matter what, to stand on Ah Jiu's side, the emperor's uncle Fu Yan is a permanent traitor.
Of course, he still didn't dare to say this in front of Fu Yan, and neither did Ah Jiu.
When Prince Dun brought Ah Jiu and Wen Xiangxiang into the room, his heart was trembling. It was fine if Ah Jiu was not shrewd. There was also a historian Wen Xiangxiang by his side, which was very difficult to fool.
For this reason, he could only push the door open nervously.
The moment the door was pushed open, a person rushed towards him, and A Jiu jumped back in fright. Wen Xiangxiang and Xiao Dezi behind him helped A Jiu, and A Jiu stabilized his figure and waited until A Jiu Jiu Kan reacted carefully and disappeared in front of him.
"A-Jiu! My A-Jiu!" A-Jiu lowered her head and looked at it. A green figure was pounced on A-Jiu's feet, hugging A-Jiu's feet. rub on the skirt.
Ah Jiu shrank her feet a little, but was hugged even tighter by the people under her. She looked at her aunt Li Hua's tearful face at her feet, and could only call out to her aunt.
With this shout, the aunt at her feet cried even more, "Ajiu! My Heng'er!"
This is Ah Jiu's aunt, Du Ying, the Princess of Dun, that aunt who is thirteen years older than her, and the woman who has the cutest age gap with her uncle, and her uncle has yet to deal with it.
Aunt Du Ying is the daughter of a merchant in the country of Zheng. The one she gave birth to is a woman who is 30 years younger than her uncle. This woman who is still in her teenage years can still be described as capricious. , But as for how she fell in love with her uncle, Ah Jiu still hasn't been able to figure it out.
The biggest highlight should be the fact that Ah Jiu's uncle begged her to give her a child.
She listened to her aunt crying and felt a turmoil in her heart. Just as she was about to help her up, Wen Xiangxiang stopped her. Wen Xiangxiang shook her head, and Ah Jiu immediately understood.
Prince Dun, who was beside him, didn't seem to have expected this scene and was staring blankly at his princess' reaction.
After a long time, Du Ying's voice became weaker and quieter, Ah Jiu lowered her head and smiled, looking at Du Ying, "Auntie, it would be a crime to deceive you if you continue to act."
When Du Ying heard this, her body froze, and she slowly wiped her nose and face with the hem of Ah Jiu's skirt, and sighed, "Alas! I'm not acting anymore."
She got up, still a beautiful woman, stared at A Jiu, of course, more at Wen Xiangxiang behind her, "I said earlier that I won't act for that long." She reached out and squeezed A Jiu "If our family's Ah Jiu was so smart earlier, he wouldn't have to be seized by the king of Huai Jin."
Ah Jiu rolled her eyes, why did she talk about Fu Yan.
She smiled perfunctorily, and was pinched by Wen Xiangxiang behind her. She turned to look at Wen Xiangxiang, and Wen Xiangxiang gave her a wink, and she just remembered the business.
"Auntie, the widow came to see Heng'er." Du Ying dragged her into the house as soon as she finished speaking, with Wen Xiangxiang and Xiao Dezi behind her.
"Actually, it's not that my aunt didn't let you see it. Heng'er has had such a big incident in the past few days, so my aunt asked him to go to Guohua Temple to cultivate." Du Ying avoided and scratched her head.
"Oh?" Ah Jiu raised her eyebrows and poked Wen Xiangxiang who was behind her, "Should such a major event be recorded and placed in our annals of epic bullying?"
Wen Xiangxiang nodded, pulling out a history book from nowhere, flipping through several pages, Du Ying grabbed it, "Ajiu, why not, aunt will take you to Guohua Temple now?"
As soon as Du Ying finished speaking, a weak voice came from the bedroom behind the heavy curtain, "Mother, Heng'er is in the room."
Ah Jiu only remembered Du Ying's dizziness at the time, but was fortunately helped by Prince Dun behind him.
Ah Jiu shook her head and was about to say something to Du Ying, but was interrupted by Du Ying, who knelt on the ground and dragged her uncle beside her.
Ah Jiu was stunned, "Auntie and uncle, what are you doing?"
Prince Dun and Du Ying looked at each other, and after changing their faces, Du Ying said, "I really have no intention to deceive Your Majesty, but only by concealing Your Majesty can we save Heng'er. Your Majesty should also know that your uncle and I are the only one. Prince, I want to do my best to keep it."
"Heng'er, what's wrong with him?"
Du Ying took Ah Jiu alone into the heavily curtained bedroom, where Chen Heng, who was only ten years old, was lying on the bed.
Ah Jiu looked closer and was grabbed by Du Ying, she could only look at him from a distance, her face was extremely pale, the only thing that didn't change was his embarrassed eyes.
A Jiu saw him move the quilt, and then a word came out. He said, "I can't deceive A Jiu by saying what my mother said."
Ah Jiu ignored him and held Du Ying's hand, but Du Ying already had some tears in her eyes, "Heng'er he..."
"The doctor said it was an epidemic." Du Ying said tremblingly, "This is the reason for deceiving Ah Jiu. If it spreads out, Heng'er will be sent out of the city."
A Jiu was shocked, such a major event as the epidemic, "When and where did it get infected? Why haven't I heard of it in the imperial capital?"
Before Du Ying could answer, Heng Er who was lying on the bed explained it for her.
"I was just following Uncle Huang, and I got infected with this kind of thing. Presumably Ah Jiu never heard of it, and she also sealed up at Fu Yan."
Ah Jiu frowned, Fu Yan didn't tell her anything about such important matters, it seemed that he really wanted to make waves in the imperial capital. She asked slowly, "What are you doing with Uncle Huang?"
"Fu Yan is a traitor, I want to follow."
Ah Jiu Zhong rested his forehead, "You are only young, and it is not your turn to take care of the important affairs of the DPRK and China." Then she thought, "Have you seen anything?"
"Heng'er saw that those who had the epidemic were placed in the courtyard, and Fu Yan was in it. I just sneaked in and got infected when I came out."
"Where do you remember?" Ah Jiu asked.
"Mo Family Courtyard on the outskirts of the city."
"Auntie is good to take care of Heng'er. Ah Jiu will go back to the palace to send the imperial doctor first. Don't worry, I will take care of it." After saying that, Ah Jiu wanted to return to the palace.
"A-Jiu should send someone to find out the origins of Namo's courtyard."
Ah Jiu was about to lift the curtain with her hand, "You can rest!"
