Chapter 783 Visit

When Qin Hanzhen heard the news about Zhao Mo's arrival, he was immersed in practicing painting. He was still a little unbelievable: "Is it really cousin Zhao who is here? Over there in the main courtyard?"

Baiqiao smiled and said yes again and again, and she hurriedly put away her brushes, washed her hands, and went to change her clothes and comb her hair. Lianshi made her a single snail bun and only inserted two pearl single hairpins on it.

It was in line with her usual dressing habits, but she felt it was a little too simple. Lotus looked on and quickly took out a small ebony jewelry box inlaid with mother-of-pearl, opened it for Qin Hanzhen to pick out, and what was inside was

A hairpin adorned with many emeralds and many treasures was a little too gorgeous. Finally, Feng'er took a head flower with jade petals and rice beads and stamens, and pinned it on Qin Hanzhen. Qin Hanzhen hurriedly put it on

I put a little rouge on my lips and rushed to the main courtyard.

As soon as he went out, he met Zhao Mo.

Zhao Mo held a box in his hand and said to Qin Hanzhen with a smile: "My cousin, the clothes you wear today really match you. The begonia red makes you fairer."

Qin Hanzhen couldn't help but touch her face, thinking that there was nothing wrong with wearing brighter clothes. At least Zhao Mo felt good when she looked at it. She smiled and said to Zhao Mo: "Cousin Zhao, this is

Did you just come from the main courtyard? I heard you were coming and you were about to go there."

Zhao Mo said: "I have already paid my respects to my uncle and aunt, and now I have come specially to see my cousin. I got a good thing and I keep it for myself. But it is just a waste. It is really a waste. I might as well give it to my cousin.

Only then can we live up to the treasure."

Qin Han was really curious: "What good thing is it?"

Zhao Mo walked into the room with a smile, and Qin Hanzhen hurriedly followed him in. Watching him walk to the table and sit down, he carefully opened the wooden box in his hand and showed it to her.

Qin Hanzhen took a look at the wooden box and found that it was an inkstone. The color was quite special. It was green and green. It looked a bit like jade, but it was definitely not jade. The inkstone was in the shape of an irregular trapezoid, and most of the right side was shallow.

It is concave, but it is generally flat. Some patterns of hillside houses are lightly carved on one side of the concave position. At the bottom of the hillside, there are faint water lines, which are just connected with the lines of the inkstone itself, like huge waves.

Diagonally above, there are some looming mountain peaks and clouds carved along the stone pattern. This is an extremely delicate inkstone.

Qin Hanzhen took a closer look and touched it in his hand. He looked at Zhao Mo with some surprise: "Is this a Tao inkstone?"

Gansu Tao inkstone is one of the four famous inkstones with the smallest reserves and the most difficult to mine. It is said that mining has stopped since the Song Dynasty. Nowadays, in addition to the Tao inkstones in the imperial palace and high-ranking families, the folk inkstones are also the most difficult to mine.

It is almost impossible to see him. Qin Bai had a Tao inkstone, which was given to him by the emperor after he returned to the capital. He cherished it very much and refused to use it at ordinary times. He only wrote some important memorial articles or wanted to

This Fang Bao Inkstone would only be used when drawing and gifting to a dear friend. Qin Hanzhen once saw and touched it, but only used it once and wrote dozens of words. Based on Qin Bai's love for his granddaughter,

The extent of his love and affection for Fang Tao Yan can be seen clearly.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Mo would bring out a Tao inkstone now and said that he would give it to Qin Hanzhen.

The more Qin Hanzhen thought about it, the more surprised he became: "Cousin Zhao, where did you come from? Do you really plan to give it to me?"

Zhao Mo smiled and put the inkstone box into Qin Hanzhen's hand: "Since I said I would give it to you, how could it be false? This is a reward from the emperor. The inkstone I usually use was originally a gift from the emperor, so how can I use so many of them?

?It happens that this Tao inkstone is very good for calligraphy and painting, and my cousin practices painting every day, so I simply gave this square Tao inkstone to you, so that I can make the best use of it."

Qin Hanzhen happily accepted the inkstone, thought about it, and said: "Then just think that Cousin Zhao lent it to me. When you need to take it back, just tell me." She couldn't put it down and played with it.

That Tao Yan had no intention of appropriating good things for himself.

Zhao Mo just smiled: "Since I gave it to you, how can I say I borrowed it from you? Just use it. If I really need it, it will be the same if I ask my cousin to borrow it back."

Qin Hanzhen glanced at him with a smile: "Actually, it's not the same? It's just a different name. But considering the friendship between Cousin Zhao and me, the name is not important at all. Anyway, we will use this Tao inkstone together from now on.

Already."

Zhao Moer's face turned red and he agreed with a smile.

Qin Hanzhen played with the Tao inkstone for a while, then covered the inkstone box and carefully put it away. She asked Feng'er to serve tea, and then stood guard by the door to prevent others from approaching. Then she sat down opposite Zhao Mo and asked

He said: "How could the emperor reward you with such a good thing for no reason? But cousin Zhao has made a contribution again?" Then he lowered his voice and said, "Did King Ning Hua find any evidence?"

Zhao Mo smiled and nodded, and asked her: "I heard that my cousin met King Guangchang twice? What on earth is going on?"

Qin Hanzhen originally wanted to ask about the situation with King Ninghua, but now that Zhao Mo asked about King Guangchang, she first told everything she knew, and then said: "I suspect Guangchang

The king may have been interested in Miss Su for a long time, but for some reason, he did not come to propose marriage. Instead, he wanted to facilitate the marriage between her and you, cousin Zhao. But I think it is impossible for Princess Guanghua to bump into the Cai family last night for no reason.

King Guangchang pretended to be a guard and got involved in the carriage. I am a little worried that they are eyeing the military power of Marquis Yunyang again."

Zhao Mo smiled: "Of course it is the Yunyang Marquis Mansion. The Zhenxi Marquis has now lost military power, and the court has not yet made any arrangements for the future official position of the Zhenxi Marquis Prince. Yun Shuai has always been indifferent,

He still refused to let go. Not only was Marquis Yunyang now in charge of the city guard, but his family members and nephews were all over the country, and some even served in the palace. If he could get the support of Marquis Yunyang, then Marquis Zhenxi could be considered

What? Don’t look at the fierce fight between Zhenxihou and my father now, but he seems to be eager to take action against King Ninghua’s plans. Without military power, he is just a paper tiger. The emperor is afraid of him, and now he is even more displeased.

, it is still unknown whether Prince Zhenxihou will be arranged to take charge of the military in the future. It is human nature for King Ninghua to want to find more reliable help."

Zhao Mo secretly thought that King Guangchang had such thoughts about the eldest granddaughter of the Marquis of Zhenxi. No wonder he would run to the capital and risk his identity being discovered, and even use his father's name to pretend to be a servant.

Come to see me. I'm afraid that King Guangchang wanted to come to see him because he was unwilling to do so because he knew that his brother intended to promote the marriage between the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Zhenxi and himself, right?

In fact, what does this mean? King Guangchang is a county king like him, and his brother Ninghua King is just older and different in age, but his status is actually the same. Which girl does he like, and the girl is in love with him?

Xiang Yue, his status is also suitable, what is the difficulty in asking for a betrothal marriage in front of the Queen Mother and the Emperor? Why should he sit back and watch his brother marry his sweetheart to another man, while he said nothing, except risking going to Beijing to meet the so-called

He is a "love rival", so he will stop making any efforts? For a coward like him, there is no need to mention admiration or liking. If it were him, Zhao Mo, he would never allow anyone to take away the girl in his heart, let alone

Not to mention that he personally facilitated this. How is that any different from cutting his own heart with a knife? He has no preference for self-mutilation.

Zhao Mo slandered King Guangchang in his heart and said to Qin Hanzhen: "The eldest daughter of Yunyang Marquis Mansion is also of marriageable age, so she must not have been engaged yet? King Ninghua and King Guangchang may have been fighting.

Her intentions are unknown. If she is the daughter of the Cai family, in terms of family status, she is indeed much stronger than the eldest granddaughter of the Marquis of Zhenxi. On the Marquis of Zhenxi, military power is now falling apart. If not, we would still have to worry about the influence of the Marquis of Zhenxi and his son on Shu.

The influence of the Central and Old Tribunals is so great that King Ninghua intends to leave them alone." The reason why he wanted to promote the marriage between the eldest granddaughter of the Marquis of Zhenxi and him, the Prince of Suning County, was just to take full advantage of him.

Qin Hanzhen said: "The sister of the Cai family must not be engaged yet. I heard that the daughters of the Cai family get married relatively late, and usually do not leave the court until they are eighteen years old, so they are not in a hurry to arrange a betrothal for their daughters.

.But what kind of person is Marquis Yunyang? He is deeply trusted by the emperor, holds real power in his hands, and has a high position. What kind of in-laws do you want to find for his daughter? Who are the kings of Ninghua and Guangchang?

Even in the clan, they are not outstanding figures. How could Marquis Yunyang like them?" After a pause, she glanced at Zhao Mo with a smile, "If it were King Suning instead, then perhaps Marquis Yunyang would like them.

That’s what I’m willing to do.”

Zhao Mo was stunned for a moment, and then gave Qin Hanzhen an angry and funny look. Unfortunately, the look in his eyes was not intimidating, but seemed to be an aggravation: "Cousin Qin, don't talk nonsense, I only want to marry one person."

I will not take a girl as my wife, no matter what their family background or appearance, I will not take it seriously. Even if Marquis Yunyang likes me, I will decline it politely!"

Qin Hanzhen covered his face in embarrassment and smiled, then raised his head with a red face and said, "I shouldn't have said that, I'm sorry."

How could Zhao Mo really care about her? He smiled and accepted her apology, and the two continued the original topic.

If King Ninghua wanted to win over Marquis Yunyang and wanted to promote the marriage between his brother King Guangchang and Marquis Yunyang's daughter Cai Yuanzhen, then letting his princess "bump" Cai Yuanzhen's carriage was probably just a way for both parties to get acquainted.

Although it is not clear why Princess Ninghua approached Cai Yuanzhen in a way that might offend the Cai family, her subsequent offer to invite Cai Yuanzhen to the spring banquet she held was probably for the purpose of deepening the friendship between the two parties.

It's a pity that Cai Yuanzhen first had a bad impression of Princess Ninghua, and then Qin Hanzhen started to sow discord. Now that the former has no intention of making friends with Princess Ninghua, it may be even more difficult for Ninghua and his wife to achieve their goals.

Already.

In response, Zhao Mo also gave Qin Hanzhen a thumbs up and praised her for doing a good job.

Qin Hanzhen just had a flash of inspiration and casually said a few bad words about Princess Ninghua. But it would be a surprise if she could accidentally destroy Princess Ninghua's plot. But she still doesn't understand.

: "Why did King Guangchang show up there again? He really wasn't afraid of being recognized. Although Miss Su didn't know his true identity, the clues were actually very close. She just didn't know that he was using a fake name.

That's why I didn't guess it. I don't know if the Marquis of Zhenxi knew about King Guangchang's visit to Beijing. If he knew that King Guangchang had such a relationship with his granddaughter, I don't know what he would have planned."

Zhao Mo's expression was a little subtle: "The Marquis of Zhenxi may not have any plans... He wants to marry his granddaughter to me for another purpose. It's not just to make a granddaughter the princess of the county."

Qin Hanzhen asked hurriedly: "What is the purpose? In fact, I have long felt strange. You and your father have a bad relationship. King Ning Hua and others can just win over your father, why do they have to plan your marriage?"

"The reason is very simple." Zhao Mo looked at her meaningfully, "Because I am the Prince of Suning County."

Qin Hanzhen was stunned and didn't understand: "What do you mean?"

Zhao Mo smiled slightly: "Because I am Suning, the county king."
