When someone asked this question, the other party was still her husband. When the crown prince of the dynasty, Chu Jinyao was inevitably super embarrassed. She tried to be vague: "It's nothing to say, let's move on to the next thing..."
"I don't think so." Qin Yi looked at Chu Jinyao and smiled, "I really want to know."
Chu Jinyao was annoyed by being forced to ask, and glared at Qin Yi angrily. People like Qin Yi never know what it means to accept it when you see it. He has to piss off people and be stared at a few times before he is willing to change the subject.
Qin Yi held back his smile and asked cooperatively, "What about the next thing?"
Being interrupted by Qin Yi like this, Chu Jinyao forgot what he was going to say, and after thinking for a while, he continued: "The main reason is that this flame is so special that I can't forget it once I see it. I rely on this to think of the day when the dancer caught fire. The culprit, but I have never been able to figure it out. Although this kind of thing is flammable, there is always a clue. Later, you brought Jinyiweili's confession. I opened the clothes and found out that it turned out to be shell powder. "
"What's the point of this?"
"His Royal Highness, you know things like a god, and you lift weights lightly in the courtroom. I didn't expect you to have something you don't understand." Chu Jinyao looked at Qin Yi with a smirk, her eyes bright as stars, "This shell powder is very useful. It is a Burning shells into ashes and putting them in the face wash can make the skin whiter, but when it touches water, it will heat up and burn easily, so girls gradually use it less. It's not unusual to know this."
Chu Jinyao said in the Qianqing Palace that she did not know, and led the imperial doctor to say the taboo of shell powder getting hot when exposed to water. But in fact, Chu Jinyao knew a lot about this whitening remedies. Because Chu Jinyao loves beauty, he usually likes to collect these remedies, and Xiao Qihou is also a person who likes to dress up and pushes himself to others. Chu Jinyao speculates that Xiao Qihou also knows this. As it turns out, she really knew.
Qin Yi was really surprised, he didn't expect this to happen at all. Qin Yi and his staff discussed for a long time, but still couldn't figure out why the fire started. However, I didn't expect that Chu Jinyao opened the last pass. The kind of strange fire particles can only be touched by alchemists, and the whitening formula behind them is used to heat up the fire, which seems to be the work of a woman. Logically, the two are too far apart. Even if someone has dabble in a wide range of knowledge and understands the way of alchemists, then he thinks the same as before, but he may not be able to guess the shell powder. After all, whitening things, which man would care about these.
These two tricks create and counteract each other, which is a natural trap, but Chu Jinyao took both, and solved the case smoothly. Qin Yi looked at Chu Jinyao's bright eyes and couldn't help shaking his heart. After he recovered, he deliberately smiled and said: "It seems that the girl is a little naughty, maybe it will come in handy in the future. The daughter is raised in this way."
"His Royal Highness." Chu Jinyao called out in shame, she heard Qin Yi say "our daughter", her heart moved slightly, and then she was incredibly soft. Chu Jinyao silently caressed her lower abdomen, when will there be a little life here, a child belonging to her and Qin Yi.
Qin Yi also knows Chu Jinyao's heart knot. In fact, Qin Yi is really not in a hurry. How old are the two of them, why are they in a hurry to have a child? But he also understood that Chu Jinyao was different. She was the crown princess, and the pressure was incomparable. Qin Yi held Chu Jinyao's hand and said, "No hurry, we have time. Don't put too much pressure on yourself."
"Yeah." Chu Jinyao nodded. The topic was a little heavy when he mentioned it. Chu Jinyao didn't want to spoil the atmosphere, so he quickly said, "Your Highness, did I make a great contribution this time?"
"Of course." Qin Yi also smiled, "If the crown princess doesn't make a move, it's amazing. You alone are far more effective than a staff member in the East Palace."
In front of his wife, Qin Yi sold his subordinates without hesitation, and even stepped on it casually. Chu Jinyao was a little shy after hearing this, and said, "How can I compare with the think tank of the East Palace. By the way, and my hairpin, you have to pay me too!"
Qin Yi was amused and laughed: "Okay, whatever you say is what you say. I'll ask them to make you a brand new set in a while."
After the incident of Wang Mingci, Xiao Qi was cleaned up honestly, and the people in the harem noticed that the limelight was wrong, and they were all as quiet as quails. However, the matter is far from over. Qin Yi returned to court on the second day after the end of the ritual. Those who had impeached Qin Yi before were filled with righteous indignation, but now they dare not speak when they see Qin Yi.
Qin Yi is such a vengeful person. Now that he has recovered his innocence and returned to the court, it is no wonder that these people can get good results. The atmosphere in the morning was strange, and Qin Yi stood at the forefront calmly. When the morning was halfway through, Qin Yi stepped forward and said, "My son has something to play."
After Xiao Qi's affairs were over, Qin Yi didn't say anything and let the matter pass. While the emperor was relieved, he also felt a little guilty. Even if he is not familiar with state affairs, at least he is not blind. This time, it is obvious that Xiao Qi is sorry for Qin Yi. However, Empress Xiao Qi was his wife, and she was more than ten years younger than the emperor. The emperor was reluctant and could not do anything to Empress Xiao Qi.
Because of this, the emperor felt a little indebted to Qin Yi. Now that Qin Yi had something to say in the early morning, the emperor agreed.
"A few days ago, the minister failed to go to court, and I heard from Zhan Shi that a minister of the humerus proposed to keep an extra prince in the capital."
As soon as Qin Yi said these words, the civil and military officials were obviously agitated, and the cabinet elders standing at the front were still calm, but the younger ministers at the back inevitably whispered and exchanged surprises with their colleagues. This incident is obviously a bomb buried at the foot of the East Palace. Now that Qin Yi has cleared his suspicions and was personally raised by the emperor to return to the court, the high-spirited courtiers a few days ago have calmed down and will no longer mention this matter. But no one could have imagined that the courtiers took the initiative to avoid it, but Qin Yi took the initiative to mention it.
The emperor was obviously surprised too. Qin Yi's brows were still, and he ignored the floating behind him. His tone was so calm that he could hardly believe what he was saying: "My son thinks this proposal is very good. Now there are only two princes in the palace. Later, if something happens in the capital, the mountains and rivers will be far away, and I am afraid that it will be too late to call the two worthy brothers back. Therefore, it is very good for my son to keep one more prince in the capital to ensure the stability of the inheritance of the country."
The elder Ge at the front also opened his eyelids and quickly guessed Qin Yi's intentions. Qin Yi continued: "As Yi Erchen sees, the second younger brother, King Su, is courteous and courteous, and is a corporal. It is best to keep him. But King Lu is the direct son of the middle palace, so it seems that the etiquette is more suitable. Don't dare to decide, ask the emperor to discuss with the lords."
After hearing this, King Su couldn't stand anymore, and quickly came out to resign. The Duke of Wei, who had just become in-law with King Su, couldn't pretend to be invisible. Both King Su and Princess Su's family have expressed their opinions. The Marquis of Zhenbei would have lived in vain for so many years if they stood still at this time, and Marquis of Zhenbei also stood up and expressed their opinions on behalf of King Lu.
Qin Yi insisted that all the ministers were courting and reasoning, and finally the cabinet elders also stood up to persuade them. I don't know if the sun was too hot, and a dense layer of fine sweat oozes out from King Su's forehead. He saw a group of loyal old ministers kneeling down and begging for life and crying, King Su's legs and feet were weak, and he couldn't bear it anymore, so he could only stand up and say: "The words of the prince really make the minister feel ashamed. The prince is both heir and long. , Since entering the dynasty, he has been diligent in governance and has been a virtuous ruler who has never been seen in the world. He is also a model of ministers and other officials. His younger brother admires the prince's high righteousness, how dare he be disrespectful and break the ancestral etiquette? Children and ministers are not filial. I implore the emperor to grant permission, and after the marriage of the minister, he will immediately go to Qingyang to join the vassal."
King Lu was not yet old enough to enter the court, so he was not present at the court early today. As soon as King Su's clear statement came out, the entire Chengtian Temple fell silent. Then came a group of voices praising King Su Mingli.
Only then was Qin Yi satisfied, and he "followed the will of the people" and "returned his life". King Su and the courtiers who agreed to keep him some time ago were embarrassed by this, even those who didn't express their position before, now they all feel the old face is hot and embarrassed. The emperor remained silent today because he was ashamed of Qin Yi, and after the crusade was over, he came out to set the tone: "The prince is both heirloom and long, conforming to the etiquette, and there has been nothing wrong over the years, so there is no need to mention such words in the future. Since King Su wants to go to Qingyang earlier, after the big wedding, let the Ministry of Rites prepare."
The emperor's words undoubtedly put the final nail in this already finalized matter. At this point, the matter of King Su's vassal has become a foregone conclusion. Although the emperor did not mention the matter of King Lu, the example of King Su has already been placed here.
The raging fire case of Xi Nei has been concluded. An inexplicable fire involved the crown prince, and finally led to a large-scale impeachment, so that the dignified crown prince had to resign to avoid the limelight. It's a pity how violent the impeachment storm was some time ago, and how fierce the counterattack of the East Palace was after that. Civil servants who believed themselves to be righteous were slapped severely, King Su, who was known for his modest name, had to ask himself to leave the capital to show his innocence, and King Lu, the arrogant son of the sky, was suppressed so much that he didn't dare to hum a word. Even the cabinet that has been immersed in the power field for many years has to admit that the crown prince is indeed a qualified heir, not only qualified, but now it should be replaced by terrible. Before such a violent impeachment storm, the crown prince was silent, until the last moment, he suddenly exerted his strength, and the thunderous thunder shook the whole country. So far, not to mention the officialdom, even the common people can see the stability of the Eastern Palace's status. Qin Yi was already the next monarch who made the decision.
Chu Jinyao's feeling was the most obvious. In the past, it was true that everyone was respectful, but this was mostly out of etiquette, and it was just for her, the prince concubine. But now, no matter inside or outside the palace, whether it's a first-rank national duke's wife or a lowly palace maid, seeing Chu Jinyao becoming more and more respectful, there is still a lot of eagerness and flattery in the respect. After all, Qin Yi's status is obvious to all, and the relationship between the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince is stable, so far there is no concubine.
The East Palace raised its eyebrows, and correspondingly, the atmosphere of the other palaces would be low. King Su made a lot of trouble because of his previous stay in Beijing, and naturally he didn't dare to be too public about the wedding. Zhao Lanhui was carried into King Su's mansion in this depressed and awkward atmosphere. The two weddings of the royal family were only six months apart, but the treatment was completely different. Chu Jinyao's wedding was grand and publicized, and the entire empire was watching closely, while Zhao Lanhui's was the exact opposite.
But it wasn't over yet, Zhao Lanhui reluctantly recognized the gap between the wedding, and before she could adjust her mentality, she was about to prepare for the matter of leaving Beijing. Qingyang and the capital have traveled thousands of miles. After this trip, I am afraid it will be difficult to see the red bricks and green tiles of the capital.
Zhao Lanhui is conceited that she is the daughter of the princess, backed by Wei Guogong's mansion, and grew up under the pressure of others, but now she is completely suppressed, how can her mentality not collapse.
Fortunately, the emperor is also a mortal. After all, King Su is a son. He has been raised in front of him for 18 years. After King Su left, I am afraid that he could only come back when he was in the funeral. The emperor felt sad every time he thought about it, and he was more and more reluctant to see King Su leave. However, the matter of the vassal was said by the emperor himself. The emperor said his words, and there is no reason to go back. The emperor could only order to go to the palace to escape the summer heat. Mouth move.
Move your mouth on the top, break your legs on the bottom. Going to the palace to escape the summer heat is another huge project. The country cannot live without a king for a day. If the emperor moves his nest, the entire imperial institution has to move along with it.
Chu Jinyao has no opinion on this. Anyway, where Qin Yi is, there is nothing she is not used to. The scale of the palace is of course not comparable to the Forbidden City. The bricks and tiles of the palace are not as clear as the imperial palace, and the strict hierarchy of the harem is also weakened a lot. After moving to the palace, both the emperor and the driver secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The rules overwhelm people, the people below are frightened, and the people above are tired.
When the mighty team arrived at the palace, Chu Jinyao was hit by the carriage and hurt all over. The Crown Princess's chariot was uncomfortable, not to mention the others. The people in the convoy were so upset that they could not wait to throw themselves into the bed to rest immediately. It's a pity that the emperor and the queen can rest, but they can't. Chu Jinyao got off the bus and followed Qin Yi to the emperor and the queen's bedroom to greet him. After fulfilling the duty of saving the morning and evening and serving the elders, he could return to his bedroom.
Chu Jinyao and Qin Yi met King Su and his wife when they were asking for peace. The emperor and Queen Qi were so tired that they let them out after saying a few words. The four of them withdrew together and walked out of the palace of the empress. King Su took the initiative to say hello to Qin Yi and Chu Jinyao: "Brother Huang, Sister-in-law."
King Su took the initiative to speak, and Zhao Lanhui had no choice but to curtsy and salute, but she called "Prince" and "Prince Concubine", which made her estranged a lot. Zhao Lanhui was a little awkward facing Chu Jinyao, but Chu Jinyao didn't care about her at all: "King Su and the princess are polite."
King Su politely greeted Qin Yi for a while, then said to Qin Yi, "Brother Huang, it's still early today, can you go to the paddock? I heard that a new batch of prey was sent today."
Since he came to the palace, hunting is naturally the highlight. There are very few men who are not keen on hunting, and Qin Yi is no exception. Chu Jinyao was tortured by the road and looked weak, but Qin Yi was in good spirits. Unlike the emperor, he didn't need to rest and recuperate. Before the sun went down, he happened to go to the paddock to have a good time. This is the first batch of prey this year. Which man is not tempted, but hunting before the emperor can be regarded as a pervert, and only a few princes dare to go out and try it.
Qin Yi was moved and said, "It just so happens that Gu also has the same intention. But the female relatives are still there, so let's settle them first."
King Su was obviously stunned for a moment: "The palace is guarded by the Imperial Guard, and nothing can go wrong. It is enough to have the old guard escort."
Chu Jinyao also said, "Your Highness, go to the paddock, I'll bring someone back myself."
"How can this be done?" Qin Yi rejected it without even thinking about it. He said to King Su, "You take someone there first, and I'll be there in a moment."
Su Dynasty Chu Jinyao swept away a large group of people behind him. He felt that Qin Yi was making a big fuss. With such a short way, he was afraid that people would get lost. But this is Qin Yi's business. King Su did not express his position, but smiled: "I will obey the order, the emperor will ask first. The emperor's brother and sister-in-law walk slowly."
Zhao Lanhui watched Chu Jinyao walk away. She just turned around when she heard King Su say, "This king is going to the paddock, so the princess should go back first."
Zhao Lanhui raised her eyebrows in surprise. She wanted to explain that Prince Ming sent the Crown Princess back, but Prince Su actually let her go by herself? But in the end, Zhao Lanhui swallowed the words in his mouth: "Okay, Lord, walk slowly."
King Su walked away with a large group of people without turning his head. Zhao Lanhui looked at Qin Yi and Chu Jinyao who were walking away together, and then looked at King Su who strode away, and sighed heavily.
Zhao Lanhui met Qi Rong halfway along the way. She didn't want to face the cold Su Wangfu alone, so she pulled Qi Rong over. Sitting in the bedroom, Zhao Lanhui complained to Qi Rong: "In the past, when I entered the palace with my mother, I only felt the majesty of the palace. ."
Prince Su was about to go to the fief, and the reason for going to the fief was particularly embarrassing. Zhao Lanhui, Princess Su, was very shameless when she was walking outside. If you are in an awkward position outside, then don't go out, but even if Zhao Lanhui stays in his palace, his eyes are still not clean.
King Su's biological mother passed away early. Although he had a noble adoptive mother later, he still suffered a lot from low birth. King Su has a maid with a red face who has been with him for many years. He has been with him from the darkness of the palace to the establishment of the palace. On the second day of the marriage, King Su brought the maid to Zhao Lanhui and clearly gave the maid her identity. In addition to the beauty who was unable to move, the concubine Shu also gave some beauties, saying that she would serve Zhao Lanhui and manage the palace for her, but how could Zhao Lanhui not know what these people did. Zhao Lanhui also wanted to follow Chu Jinyao's example, accepting it in the open, but in fact it was far away, but Concubine Shu only mentioned it to King Su, and King Su lifted him up.
Only then did Zhao Lanhui realize that Chu Jinyao gave her a huge illusion, making Zhao Lanhui think that all women can do this. Speaking of which she and King Su were still married in the first month, Zhao Lanhui already had several sisters. Zhao Lanhui's heart is sour, looking at the situation today, it is clear that Chu Jinyao and the prince are more like newly married than her.
Zhao Lanhui saw the handkerchief from the past, and poured out his bitter water: "Speaking of that, that one is really lucky, they have been married for six months, and no one of the palace maids around her have pulled up their hair, so the crown prince even left her alone! The Queen's concubine has a good temperament, and at the same time, it is not easy for her step-mother to interfere, otherwise, let alone the royal family, even ordinary nobles can't tolerate her jealous wife."
Qi Rong's eyes moved and she couldn't believe it: "You mean, since the marriage last year, the prince's cousin has been the only one by her side?"
Zhao Lanhui nodded lightly, and Qi Rong was even more shocked. At the same time, the jealousy in her heart grew uncontrollably.
She and the prince are cousins, and she even knew the prince's cousin earlier than Chu Jinyao! If it wasn't for the delay in asking the little aunt to issue the order, the Crown Princess should have been her! And the news I heard today was undoubtedly a sharp knife, which penetrated deeply into Qi Rong's heart, dripping with blood.
Chu Jinyao why? Qi Rong was not reconciled.
The author has something to say: In fact, the Ming Dynasty did not have a palace and a summer escape. The emperors of the Ming Dynasty would be impeached by the ministers if they went too often to sacrifice to the sky outside the city. How should I say, alas...
But when everyone in the palace lives too far, it's not easy to develop the next plot, so let's change the map for them~
