Shi Qing was originally standing outside the imperial study room waiting for Shi Ju and Qian Huanhuan, when he suddenly saw the servant come out in a hurry to ask for the imperial doctor, he poked his head curiously.
"The Fifth Highness suddenly vomited blood and passed out." Seeing that Shi Qing came over, the servant added one more sentence, "Why does this body get worse and worse as it grows?"
Although the fifth emperor is not favored, she is not as capable as the fourth emperor, let alone has the support of strong relatives like the sixth emperor, but because she is caught in the middle, she appears harmless and uncompetitive.
In addition, her health has been poor since she was a child, and the emperor and queen have never criticized her materially.
However, this body is still getting worse.
Shi Qing silently replied in his heart after listening, it must be that his heart is broken.
It's hopeless, let's bury it.
After a while, the imperial doctor rushed over with a suitcase and was sweating profusely.
The five emperors were carried to the inner room of the imperial study to rest, and the imperial doctor walked around behind the screen to check the pulse after meeting with the emperor.
The emperor and the imperial doctor were behind the screen, while Shi Ju Qian Huanhuan waited outside with several princesses.
The sixth princess stood a little far away, as if deliberately avoiding Shiju.
She was afraid that this capital censor should be called Shi Taifu now, mainly because she had interrogated people when she was a child.
Under the cloudy weather, under the steps of the imperial study room, the imperial censor stood in front of several ministers, like a dark, restrained and undecorated knife, he glanced over, and the thunder above his head suddenly exploded, and the invisible pressure surrounded him. When the head came, several ministers who were crushed knelt on the ground on the spot.
Among them was a princess who was shaking like chaff in fright.
The sixth princess was dumbfounded, and only then did she realize that there was someone with more powerful eyes than her father!
From then on, whenever Shi Ju took a look at her, she seemed to be nailed to the ground, not daring to move at all, wishing to explain everything she had done clearly.
The sixth princess thought that it might be because she punished Li Yunqing last time, which made the empress dissatisfied, so she asked Shiju to control them.
If she had known today, she would rather not take this job, and from then on go to bed early, get up early, eat fast and chant Buddha half a day, and would not miss Taifu Chen's classes, rather than face Shiju every day.
It's a pity it's too late to say anything now.
Shi Ju is now a little older, and his momentum is much more restrained and calm, not as sharp as when he was young. However, this is even more elusive, and I don't know what she is thinking.
The little princess was young and couldn't stand upright. Seeing that the emperor wasn't around, she couldn't help snuggling up to her servant, and asked in a childish voice, "What's wrong with Fifth Sister?"
The servant squatted down and comforted her softly, "The fifth emperor's daughter is just sleepy, she will be fine later."
The little princess looked towards the screen curiously.
The sixth princess was originally standing side by side with the little princess, but now she slowly moved behind the little princess, trying to cover her older self with her little sister.
It might be that the little princess made a commotion, and Shi Ju glanced over with his faint eyes.
The sixth princess was shocked in an instant, and silently moved away from the little princess, as if drawing a clear line, with "I didn't say anything, she was the one who was arguing, it has nothing to do with me" written all over her face!
Seeing her movements, Shi Ju couldn't help but pause for a moment, wondering why the sixth princess is so afraid of herself
Could it be that there is prejudice against the position of the imperial censor
On the screen side, the atmosphere is weird. Over there, the imperial doctor's diagnosis is still the same set of rhetoric.
The fifth emperor's daughter was born with a problem in the womb, and she may have been greedy for cold and eaten hot and cold things recently, which led to coughing and vomiting blood.
In short, rest first.
After the imperial doctor left, the emperor asked the unconscious fifth emperor to rest in the room and came out by herself.
She originally wanted the imperial daughters to come and meet the new Grand Tutor, but now that they have met, there is only a cup of tea to respect the teacher.
With a body like the fifth emperor's, it is estimated that she will bid farewell to the academy, and just stay in her own palace to raise it, so only the sixth emperor and the little emperor are serving tea.
The servant brought over the tea, and the Sixth Queen and the Little Queen held it, and offered it to Shiju in front of the Emperor, officially recognizing her as his wife.
"As for Qian Huanhuan," the emperor sat back on the chair, looked up at the young woman standing upright in front of his desk, and said slowly, "You know right from wrong better than your mother. I like it very much."
"What Qian Yuqing did has nothing to do with you. I will not hold you accountable. I will handle my errands well in the future. I have high expectations for you. Don't let me down."
Qian Huanhuan saluted immediately and said, "I understand."
The emperor waved his hand, "You all go down first, Shi Aiqing stays behind, I have something to discuss with you."
Qian Huanhuan breathed a sigh of relief when he came out of the imperial study.
She squinted slightly and looked up at the sun outside, feeling an indescribably relaxed and warm body, like a quilt that had been kept in the closet for a winter, and finally took it out to bask in the sun.
The mountain that used to be on his shoulders was finally completely shattered, and his whole body was lightened.
"What are you thinking about?" Shi Qing walked over from the shade and asked Qian Huanhuan suspiciously, "Where's my mother?"
"Teacher Shi is discussing matters with the emperor inside." Qian Huanhuan looked at Shi Qing, "Let's go."
Shi Qing made an appointment with the two sisters of Qian's family to go to Qian's house together today, and asked Yun Zhi to take the pulse of Qian's mother to see if she could be saved.
Qian Huanhuan felt that the pulse diagnosis was false, but the rumors in the past were true.
She smiled helplessly and didn't stop her.
After all, my mother has a lot of prestige in front of me, so it is better for Shi Qing to let her and Cancan tell her mother about the emperor's treatment of the Qian family.
What's more, Shi Qing himself is very active.
Mihe had been waiting outside in the car for a long time, she was standing at the gate of the palace looking in, she saw Shi Qing's figure from a distance, she immediately turned her head and shouted back, "Little master, the little master has come out!"
She had a loud voice, and when she shouted, she could hear her clearly.
Shi Qing covered his eyes with his hands, and looked back blankly.
This is the palace, right? It sounds more like a prison.
It was as if she had entered and then been released.
Yun Zhi was sitting on the crossbar in front of the car, leaning against the carriage, with one leg bent and the other hanging down, holding an oil-paper umbrella for sunshade in his hand, swinging his legs, and spinning the umbrella with little interest.
It wasn't until he heard Mihe's voice that his eyes lit up instantly.
His figure jumped out of the car lightly, like a light blue leaf blown by the wind, he walked towards Shi Qing quickly with an umbrella in his hand, and stretched out his hand to cover her head with the umbrella.
Coolness and shade follow.
"Why so long?" Yun Zhi asked.
Shi Qing put down the hand that shaded the sun, and said to him, "I'm watching a play inside."
Yun Zhi couldn't go in, so Shi Qing told him about today's events in a more eloquent way.
The husband and wife talked and laughed together and walked forward together under the umbrella, while Qian Huanhuan, who was alone next to him, felt inexplicably redundant.
Mihe ran over with a smile, and walked a little behind Qian Huanhuan, "Now we are also two people."
"..."
Qian Huanhuan returned home in Shi's carriage today, and when he was almost at the gate, he found several carriages parked in front of his gate.
In the early days of the emperor's court, it was clearly stated that the ministers were not allowed to visit Qian's mother. These people were also very flexible, and they all sent posts to see Qian Huanhuan.
Shi Qing raised the curtain and took a look. If Qian Huanhuan was found to have returned, he would definitely be entangled.
She let the sedan chair of the Qian Mansion following the carriage swing around deliberately from the door to lure people away, while they entered the mansion through the back door.
Mother Qian had already woken up this morning. When she woke up, she found that she couldn't move her hands and feet, and she fainted from anger on the spot.
She still thought that she was just in a hurry like last time, and she couldn't move for the time being.
If you know that you will be bedridden forever, you probably don't know what your expression is.
At this moment, Father Qian is coaxing Mother Qian, who is awake again, to eat and drink.
However, Qian's mother didn't cooperate at all, she angrily called him out, and asked someone to call in the unfilial daughter Qian Huanhuan.
Qian Cancan sat cross-legged at a table not far away, eating pastries, and said lightly, "My sister has gone to court, it's useless for you to shout."
"Who allowed you to go back to the house?" Mother Qian's face was gloomy, her eyes turned to Qian Cancan, "Get out, I don't even want to see you."
Her chest rose and fell violently, and she was obviously very angry, "I knew that you two sisters are the same bastards, I should have put you in the pond when you were born!"
"My wife, how can you say that about two children!" Father Qian sat beside the bed holding the bowl with both hands, and his eyes were red when he heard this.
Even when he got angry, he said softly, "They are all your own flesh and blood, even if they did something wrong, they are still your biological daughters."
"I don't have such flesh and blood!" Qian's mother wanted to let Qian Cancan be stabbed to death with random swords.
"Father, don't try to persuade her, she likes to eat or not." Qian Cancan has heard even worse things, so she doesn't really care.
The more Qian Cancan disagreed, the angrier Qian's mother became. And the angrier Qian's mother became, the happier Qian Cancan became.
It turned out that Mother Qian also felt helpless lying on the bed
Qian Cancan thought that she was going to control others for the rest of her life.
It's really a turn of wind and water, and it's coming to my house this year.
The servants came in at the door, and Fuli said softly, "Missy and Mrs. Xiao are here."
"Sister and Shi Qing are back?" Qian Cancan patted the cake crumbs in her hands, and said to Qian's mother on the bed, "It is estimated that the emperor's treatment of you has also come out."
When Mother Qian heard the servant call Qian Huanhuan "Miss" instead of "Daughter", her eyes trembled, and her heart sank slowly.
The title of Marquis Shiyong has not been kept.
Mother Qian's face was blue and white, and her heart was angry and panicked.
What about the household secretary
Qian Huanhuan came in with Shi Qing and Yun Zhi.
Qian Huanhuan walked towards the bed, while Shi Qing and Yun Zhi first saluted Father Qian and said hello.
Father Qian wiped away the tears at the end of his eyes with a handkerchief, and put on a smile again, "Sit down and chat first, and I'll get someone to prepare tea and snacks for you."
After he went out, Qian Cancan leaned on the chair in an unsettled manner again. When he glanced at the blue official uniform on his body, he frowned in distaste, "Why are you still wearing this?"
There is an angry tone.
Shi Qing dusted off his clothes, smiling, "I'll change it tomorrow, big red!"
Qian Cancan laughed at her, "virtuous."
The two were about to quarrel when they met, but Qian Huanhuan walked to the bed and said softly, "Mother, I'll ask someone to take your pulse."
"I became what I am now, all because of you and Qian Cancan, do you still need to feel the pulse?"
Mother Qian took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and tried to ask what she wanted to know, "What did the emperor say?"
"The matter of Sun Da was revealed, and the emperor deprived Qian Fu of the title of Marquis of Yongshi..."
Qian Huanhuan paused for a moment, "At the same time, you will be dismissed from the post of Minister of the Household Department, and you will be asked to close your house and think about your mistakes, and you will not be allowed to go out for life."
Qian Huanhuan replied truthfully, "As for me and my uncle in the harem, they are not implicated."
Qian's mother closed her eyes, "Your uncle is still a nobleman, so things will be much easier. You send him a letter and let him find a way to listen to the emperor."
Mother Qian opened her eyes and looked at Qian Huanhuan, as if grasping at the last straw, her eyes were heavy.
"It's okay to lose the title of Marquis Shiyong, but the position of Secretary of the Household Department must be held in the hands of our Qian family. I have worked hard for many years to turn the Household Department into the Qian family's private treasury. I can't just throw it away."
"I still have a lot of contacts in Chaoshang. You go and get in touch and ask them to intercede for me. Our Qian family will always make a comeback."
She still can't let go of her ambition and power.
Qian Huanhuan didn't speak, but just walked to the side.
Seeing that she didn't take her words seriously, Mother Qian said angrily, "Did you hear me talking to you?"
"I heard you, I heard you." Shi Qing pulled a chair over, sat not far from the bed, and kindly advised her, "Don't even think about it. If you want to make a comeback, whether you can get up or not is a problem."
"The Household Department has always been the court's money bag. Although your surname is Qian, it really has nothing to do with you."
"Don't think about Dongshan, you should think about how to get up."
Mother Qian hated nothing more than the Shi family, especially Shi Qing.
She ignored Shi Qing, but glared at Qian Huanhuan not far away, "Who allowed her to come in?"
Shi Qing was puzzled, "Look at what you said, I have legs and feet, why can't I come in?"
"Besides, I, the servant of the household department, can't I come and see the former minister of the household department?"
Qian's mother was slightly startled, and turned her gaze back, "The servant of the household department?"
When she wanted to raise her finger, she couldn't move her hands, "Could you be the servant of the household department?"
"Why can't I be?"
Shi Qing pointed to the blue official uniform on his body, raised his eyebrows and said, "Tomorrow it will turn red, envy or not, envy or not?"
Mother Qian's breathing was heavy, her jaw was tense, and she looked at Shi Qing wishing she could eat her.
She said in a hoarse voice: "Shi Qing, don't be complacent, if the Qian family really collapses, your Shi family won't last long!"
Isn't it a coincidence, the last one who said so is now lying in the palace vomiting blood.
And the next one is you.
Shi Qing clicked his tongue, "There is something I have to tell you. After you were dismissed, I was promoted to be the servant of the household department. As for my mother..."
Mother Qian held her breath unconsciously, her eyes fixed on Shi Qing.
Shi Qing smiled slightly, "She has been promoted to Taifu~"
She deliberately only talked about Shiju's promotion, not about Shiju's resignation from the capital censor.
"Surprised or surprised?"
Just ask if you are angry.
You are unlucky, but your arch-rival has been promoted. Even if Qian's mother is buried in the ground, she will probably be so angry that she will crawl out!
Tai, Taifu? !
Mother Qian's chest was filled with blood, and she had difficulty breathing.
How could she accept that she was dismissed from office and her political opponent was promoted instead!
Mother Qian looked at Qian Huanhuan, her eyes widened, as if asking for proof.
Qian Huanhuan nodded slowly, "Du Yushi is now the master of the time, and it was just settled today."
Mother Qian spat out a mouthful of blood.
Shi Qing hid for a while, "The weather is dry, the blood is strong, drink more hot water."
Yun Zhi came over to give Qian's mother the pulse, "This time I'm really in a hurry."
Mother Qian didn't care about the situation around her at all, she was completely immersed in what Shi Qing said just now.
She stared blankly at the bed curtain above, and slowly shook her head, "Impossible, impossible, why is she Shiju?"
"Just because they are not as greedy and ruthless as you." Qian Cancan sneered, "It is not surprising that everyone in the world gets promoted, but you deserve to be dismissed."
"If it's not for the sake of grandma and uncle, you should be lying in prison right now, and you're not satisfied."
Mother of Qian turned her neck stiffly, "If I wasn't the Minister of the Household Department, would you be able to have today?"
Qian Cancan asked back, "If you weren't the Secretary of the Household Department, if you weren't so ambitious and didn't value power so much, how could we be where we are today?"
Qian Cancan stood up with a cold face, "My sister and I are living like puppets, without the slightest bit of our own thinking at your mercy?"
"For so many years, my sister and I have never felt happy in life."
"You are like this now, it is the time when I feel the most relieved and the most enjoyable in my life!"
Qian Huanhuan reached out and pulled Qian Cancan's arm.
Only then did Qian Cancan take a deep breath, and sat down with her neck straightened.
Qian Huanhuan didn't refute her words.
Mother Qian was shocked, "They blamed me? Did they blame me? If I hadn't taken the position of this prostitute, would I have the power and position I have now?"
"I was born lower than my daughter-in-law. If I'm not ruthless, how can I climb up?"
"I treat you and your sister like this, but for your own good."
Shi Qing hated this kind of words similar to family pua the most.
Especially Qian's mother, who is completely the pua of parents to children. It has been there since childhood, and it exists in the invisible. It is more hateful than the old man to Li.
Shi Qing asked, "For their own good, for their own good, you keep saying that you are good, do they need it? They live in a depressed and restrained life, and they don't feel how good you are."
"Why do you simply admit that you have ambitions?"
Shi Qing wondered, "Why do you have to use the banner of being good for them in everything, because you yourself feel that your little thoughts are shameful?"
Qian Huanhuan and Qian Cancan were taken aback after hearing this, and felt their eyes warm and their hearts inexplicably sore.
For so many years, every time the two of them had something that didn't suit Mother Qian's wishes, she would always say "I'm doing it for your own good".
It seems that as long as they are disobedient and don't follow through, the two of them are not filial and have failed their mother's wishes.
Obviously they did nothing wrong, but when their mother gets angry, they will instinctively feel guilty and blame themselves.
But as Shi Qing said, until they grew up, they didn't feel the kindness of their mother. What's so good about it
They are still suffering and depressed, like a mindless marionette.
Today, the two of them suddenly woke up. The mother's goodness was due to what she thought, not what they needed.
Qian Huanhuan took a deep breath, suppressing the complicated emotions in his chest.
Qian Cancan lowered her head and lowered her eyes to eat cakes, so that no one could see the expression on her face.
Shi Qing sat on the chair beside the bed, looked at Mother Qian, and said doubtfully:
"You said that you are a concubine with a humble background, so you must be ruthless. Since you despise the concubine's background so much, what kind of servant do you accept?"
"If you don't accept servants and only give birth to one, then there will be no concubine daughters."
"As for your origin, you can't choose, but it's all your own fault that you have become what you are today."
"If you don't do it, you won't die, it's you."
Qian's mother couldn't refute Shi Qing, especially Shi Qing's every word seemed to be stuck in her heart.
"I don't want to listen to you." Qian's mother resisted and turned her head to the bed, breathing rapidly.
Shi Qing let out an "ah" and became rebellious, "I'll just say it, you don't want me to say it, I just want to say it. I'm not your daughter, why should I listen to you?"
Mother Qian turned her head back to stare at her, her face was so watery, "Get lost!"
"This movement is too difficult and I don't know how to do it, or you can show me how to roll yourself?"
Shi Qing wasn't angry at all, and stretched out his hand as a gesture of invitation.
"one comes?"
Yun Zhi was leaning on the bedpost, but when he heard the words, he agreed, "Come one."
"..."
Mother Qian's chest heaved violently and wanted to vomit blood.
She was wrong, she even started to feel glad that she didn't have a daughter like Shi Qing!
The more she doesn't want to listen to Shi Qing's words, the more Shi Qing wants to force her to listen.
"Are you angry?"
Shi Qing said, "You are old, you need to be persuaded, I'm doing it for your own good, although I won't have an official position in the future, but at least I have a life."
"You will know later, how good it is to be alive."
When Shi Qing came out of Mother of Qian's room, Mother of Qian was already so angry that she vented more and breathed less, and she could pass over at any time.
The three of them were going to the front hall, when the servants of the mansion came over quickly and said to Qian Huanhuan, "Miss, there are too many ministers who want to see you outside the door..."
Qian Cancan frowned, "Get out!"
It's difficult for subordinates, "It's easy to catch up with few people, but it's difficult to catch up with many people."
These are all ministers who still have hope in the Qian family and want to put Qian Huanhuan on it.
Yun Zhi looked at Shi Qing with his arms in his arms, and asked with his eyes:
Shall I go
Shi Qing shook his head at him and looked up at Qian Huanhuan.
Qian Huanhuan took a deep breath, straightened his back, and made up his mind, "I'll go and see."
She turned her head to look at Qian Cancan and said, "You stay here to entertain Shi Qing and Yun Zhi, and I'll deal with the front matter."
When Qian Huanhuan stepped down the steps and walked out steadily, the once young daughter of the Qian family had already stayed in the corridor, and the one who walked out was the young lady of the Qian family who was able to take care of herself.
Shi Qing put his hand on Qian Cancan's shoulder with a smile, "From now on, this family will depend on you."
Maybe Qian's mother will have a hard time if the Qian family loses, but as long as the back is straight and the head is held high, it can always be carried through.
Today's Qian family can only count on the two sisters.
Qian Cancan rolled his eyes and punched her lightly, "I still need you to say more."
Leaving Qian's mansion, Shi Qing swiped the "lever fine panel" on the way back in the carriage.
Sure enough, until just now, the mission of the master—
"Let Mrs. Qian, who was born as a concubine, be sober."
It is truly complete.
Mission progress: 60 percent.
When Shi Qing was about to pull Yun Zhizui to celebrate, he found that the next task was coming soon.
Task: Get the fifth princess to go where she came from! This world does not welcome her!
"..."
I have a temper, I like it~
