Sure enough, Zhou Ji found the person responsible for arranging the seats for the luncheon and found the person who was sitting at the same table as Wang Zhen, the prince of the Shangshu family. After investigating, Wang Zhen left the seat in the middle of the luncheon.
Someone also said that when Wang Zhen came back, he asked where he had been. Wang Zhen replied that he had no alcohol left, and everyone laughed at him.
After everything was confirmed, Zhou Ji reported the results of the investigation to Master Chu Youtian.
Chu Shi Youtian's face was full of anger, "How could you, the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, have taught such a good son? Come, tell the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and his son to enter the palace."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Li said and retreated.
The Ministry of Official Affairs Shangshu Mansion.
"According to the emperor's words, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and the eldest son Wang Zhen will immediately enter the palace to meet the saint." Eunuch Li pinched Sang Yin and preached loudly.
Wang Rongrui, the Minister of Personnel, didn't know why the emperor summoned him and Wang Zhen, so he had to bow first.
Then he quickly stood up and asked Eunuch Li, "Eunuch Li, can you tell me a thing or two about the reason for the emperor's summons?"
"Hmph, Wang Shangshu will know if you ask your eldest son." As he spoke, Eunuch Li turned to Wang Zhen who was standing aside.
Wang Rongrui smiled apologetically and said, "Please wait a moment, Eunuch Li, while Mr. Rong goes back to prepare."
"Go." Eunuch Li said.
Wang Rongrui turned around, his expression downcast, and motioned for Wang Zhen to go in with him.
When Eunuch Li said that the emperor summoned him, Wang Zhen was already panicking. Why was it different from what he expected
If the clothes are broken, he should not go to the bookkeeper first, and then go to the tailor. Then Yang Zijing will follow suit, and he can avenge Yang Zijing of Qingyayuan for humiliating him!
Why did the emperor find out that he was here? Thinking of this, Wang Zhen was already frightened.
As soon as he entered the house, Wang Zhen quickly knelt down and begged, "Father, the child knows that he was wrong and will never dare to do it again. Please beg father to plead for the child more in front of the emperor."
Before Wang Rongrui asked, Wang Zhen begged.
"Tell father what you did? Why did the emperor alert you?" Wang Rongrui asked in confusion.
So Wang Zhen told Wang Rongrui what happened.
Madam Shangshu on the side couldn't help but sweat after hearing this.
Everyone knows that the emperor attaches great importance to etiquette, so if something like this happens on the birthday of the Queen Mother, it is a big or small matter. No matter what, it is obvious that he bumped into the sword.
At this moment, the veins on Wang Rongrui's forehead popped out, and Mao hit Wang Zhen with all his strength, "You traitor, you want to kill our whole family!"
"I know I was wrong, I don't dare anymore." Wang Zhen covered her face and did not dare to look at Wang Rongrui.
Seeing blood pouring from the corner of Wang Zhen's mouth after being beaten, Mrs. Shangshu quickly stepped forward to hug Wang Zhen and asked distressedly, "My child, are you okay? Huh?"
Then he said to Wang Rongrui, "Master, please stop beating me. The child is also confused for a moment. Think of a solution quickly?"
Method? Wang Rongrui let out a long sigh. Now that the matter has come to this, we can only wait and see whether God will favor the Wang family.
At this time, Eunuch Li outside the door urged, "Master Shangshu, the emperor is still waiting!"
"Here we come." Wang Rongrui adjusted his emotions.
Then he yelled at Wang Zhen, "Hurry up and leave!"
The Hall of Nourishing Heart.
"Your Majesty, I have not been strict with my son, please punish me!" He said and pulled Wang Zhen to kneel down.
Master Chu Youtian looked at them with squinted eyes, "It seems that Wang Shangshu already knows why I called you here?"
Wang Rongrui explained the cause to Chu Master Youtian.
"The dog was just confused for a while. I will definitely discipline him more in the future!" Wang Rongrui asked tentatively.
Hearing Wang Rongrui say this, Chu Shiyoutian snorted coldly, "I still want to have a future, but the abacus is all on the Queen Mother, how can I trust you?"
Wang Zhen on the side was frightened when she heard this. The emperor's words clearly made him murderous!
"My crime deserves to be punished by death. I ask Your Majesty, for the sake of the old loyal minister, to give the dog a lighter sentence." Wang Rongrui kowtowed.
Seeing Master Chu Youtian's face elongate, Wang Rongrui knew that the emperor would not let it go, so he wanted him to remember his old feelings and spare Wang Zhen's life.
Master Chu Youtian thought, if the old minister's heart is chilled by this incident, it will really be more gain than loss!
But now, it must serve the purpose of killing the chicken to scare the monkeys. After weighing it, he said, "I am thinking about my old relationship, but the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped! I will send my son to the border for three years as punishment, and we will set off tomorrow. "
Seeing that the emperor relented, Wang Rongrui quickly pulled Wang Zhen and said with tears of gratitude, "Thank you for not killing, thank you for not killing..."
Master Chu Youtian stood up and walked out of the Yangxin Hall, leaving the two of them in the Yangxin Hall to express gratitude.
After the dust settled, Chu Shi Youtian informed the Queen Mother of the results.
Yang Zijin, who was standing aside, couldn't help but feel frightened after hearing this!
If the Queen Mother had not summoned her in advance, what would have been the result
It was the afternoon of the third day after Yang Zijin left the palace, and she knew that Jiang Wei, the girl, should be anxious.
Sure enough, as soon as Yang Zijin left the palace gate, he saw Jiang Wei hurriedly greeted him.
"Sir, please let Awei wait! Seeing that you didn't leave the palace the next day, Awei wanted to break into the palace to see what happened! However, fortunately, I saw that my father-in-law came out to buy, so I gave him some silver. I asked him about you and found out that you were fine, so I felt relieved!" Jiang Wei looked aggrieved.
Yang Zijin looked at Jiang Wei with a somewhat embarrassed look, always asking this girl to follow her in a hurry.
He smiled and said comfortingly, "Next time, I promise not to worry Awei anymore. It's getting late, go back home!"
Awei nodded.
next time? But what worries Jiang Wei is yet to come!
…
In the Office of the Minister of Civil Affairs, Mrs. Shangshu burst into tears when she learned that the emperor was going to send her son to the border.
"Master, go and talk to the emperor again about how bad the current situation in the border areas is! How can Zhen'er, a weak scholar, endure such hardship?" Mrs. Shangshu begged Wang Rongrui.
I saw him looking at Wang Zhen coldly, "Humph... How can he endure such hardship? He asked for all this! I can allow the emperor to spare his life, which is already a great virtue for the ancestors of the Wang family."
With that said, he walked out of the hall, leaving the mother and son behind, hugging each other and crying. ! Crying with helplessness!
At this time, Wang Zhen's resentment towards Yang Zijin became even more intense.
If it weren't for Yang Zijin, how could he have ended up in this situation? Yang Ziqin, when I come back, I will definitely avenge today.
Thinking of Wang Zhen, she clenched her fists!
Three Miles of Peach Blossom.
Lian Sheng was busy making equipment, and Yang Zijin would go there every day to check on the progress.
On this day, he only heard a commotion outside the yard, and Yang Zijing hurriedly went out to check.
Eunuch Liu helped the Queen Mother get out of the carriage, and saw that the Queen Mother was wearing the dress she had made. It looked like it had been mended, showing her grace and dignity.
The girls in Taohua Sanli also speculated that this must be the mother of some high-ranking official.
At this moment, Eunuch Liu shouted, "The Queen Mother is here!"
Everyone was stunned at first! It took a moment to react and bow to the Queen Mother.
Yang Zijin also hurriedly greeted her, "I don't know if the Queen Mother comes here, ordinary people would be rude."
"No problem, the Ai family has nothing to do, and I would like to find the boss to design some clothes." The Queen Mother said.
Passers-by three miles away from Peach Blossom couldn't believe that all these weird clothes made by Young Master Yang had caught the eye of the Queen Mother.
Of course Yang Zijin knew why the Queen Mother said this.
Then she made a gesture of invitation and said, "The Queen Mother will go in with the common people to rest."
Following Yang Zijin into Peach Blossom Sanli, the Queen Mother was full of praise for the design of Peach Blossom Sanli. When they arrived at the backyard, the Queen Mother called her servants to leave.
"How come the Queen Mother has time to see Zijin?" Yang Zijin walked up behind the Queen Mother and beat her back.
The Queen Mother said with a smile on her face, "I haven't seen you for a while, and I miss my son."
"Then if the Imperial Grandmother misses Zi Jin, she can ask the people around you to come and send a message, and Zi Jin will go to visit the Imperial Grandmother." Yang Zijin said hurriedly.
The Queen Mother replied, "Zijin is still busy with business, and the Ai family is alone. How can the Ai family be willing to let you run on both sides?"
"It's okay, Imperial Grandma, I can instruct my servants to do the work first." Yang Zijin continued.
The Queen Mother looked pleased and no longer refused, "Well, if the Ai family misses you in the future, they will order someone to come find you."
…
The news that the Queen Mother went to Taohua Sanli to find Yang Zijin to make clothes spread quickly.
Instantly! There is a long queue of people making daily reservations for women's flowers, and even Peach Blossom Sanli is gradually gaining business.
The Duke's Mansion.
There are also concubines and ladies wearing dresses purchased at Yang Zijin's shop.
When Duke Mu saw this, he cursed loudly, "It's not appropriate. People in the Duke's mansion are explicitly prohibited from wearing these fancy clothes!"
The concubines and ladies who had already bought clothes were so frightened that they quickly put away the clothes.
One day, Duke Mu went to a concubine to rest.
"Where did you buy this thing? The style is very beautiful!" Seeing the bra he was wearing, Mu Guogong couldn't help but asked curiously.
The concubine was also talkative and said with a shy face, "Back to the master, there is a shop in the city that sells women's clothes. It is said that these are all designed by the shop's boss Yang!"
Boss Yang? Could it be...
"Which Boss Yang?" Mu Guogong asked hurriedly thinking of this.
The concubine was confused by the question and replied, "It's the boss Yang from Three Miles of Peach Blossoms."
After hearing the exact answer, Mu Guogong's expression changed slightly.
This rebellious girl! He didn't care about making some fancy clothes. A daughter's house actually made such filthy things. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but get angry. He pushed his concubine past, got up and walked out.
The concubine was left with a confused look on her face. She was fine just now, but why did she become like this all of a sudden
This Yang Zijin really thought that no one would care about her. Mu Guogong returned to the study and decided to go find Yang Zijin early tomorrow morning.
Early the next morning, Duke Mu went to Taohua Sanli to look for Yang Zijin.
When Ah Xian saw Duke Mu coming in, he went up to greet him, "Young man, please see Duke Mu."
Seeing that Duke Mu ignored Ah Xian and walked around without seeing Yang Zijing, he finally said, "Where is your young master?"
"Young master, my young master has not yet come back to China." Ah Xian replied.
Duke Mu found a chair and sat down, "Well, I will wait until she comes."
