Chapter 160 The Emperor and the Empress understand each other

Beijing,

east city,

In front of the gate of Luoyunhou Mansion,

Qin Ye also walked in a hurry, wandering all the way for a long time before reaching the Hou Mansion. After all, he was old and could not have walked on foot. He didn't even walk in a sedan chair. He knew whether he had a full head or not.

Sweating profusely, stumbling with a look of exhaustion on his face.

After hearing this, Zhang Jinyu hurriedly ran to the gatekeeper of the Hou Mansion, personally led Qin Ye into the house and walked east. When she saw the panting father-in-law, she was shocked and asked,

"How come my father-in-law is so tired?"

Qin Ye waved his legs and said,

"It's okay. I came here in a hurry, so he came over by himself. He was afraid that I would suffer a loss, so he came to help me explain the matter."

When Zhang Jinyu saw her father-in-law with a sincere face, she couldn't help but patted Qin Ye on the back to let him take a breather.

"Father-in-law, the personal guards he left behind in the mansion can be used by them. They can use carriages and other things. There are no outsiders. We must never act like this in the future."

Did Zhang Jinyu really feel sorry for her father-in-law? Did Qin Ye feel Zhang Jinyu's kindness and patted his shoulder?

road,

"Good boy, he will be relieved if you leave it to me. Will tomorrow's matter be solved? If it doesn't work, I will go to the outside world to beat the drum. I will risk my life and ask the emperor to be there to judge."

Zhang Jinyu personally poured a cup of tea and handed it over, comforting him,

"Father-in-law, drink some tea first. I have already solved this matter. Why bother my father-in-law to do this? Then my son-in-law will have no face. Wrong!"

Zhang Jinyu took out the 100,000 silver note that Ning Guofu paid for compensation and handed it over. Qin Ye asked in surprise,

"Isn't that true, Mr. Hou?"

"Father-in-law, the money that the Jia family of Fu Ningguo Mansion paid to Ke Qing, father-in-law can take it back and make up for it with his own confinement."

When Qin Ye heard that he was willing to beg, he waved his legs to push away. Zhang Jinyu had to say when he saw it,

"In that case, father-in-law, the money can be added to the money for the engagement. It's okay for him, Zhang Jinyu, to spend a lot of money to get a wife."

After hearing this, Qin Ye had no choice but to put it away. Apart from that matter, did he want to talk about the wedding date? Although the marriage contract has been signed, when will the wedding date be? But Qing's age cannot delay it any longer.

After this incident, whether his daughter's life or death was no longer a member of the Hou Mansion, he asked whether his daughter was alive or dead.

"Master Hou, that one"

"Father-in-law, why do you call him Marquis? Just call him Jin Yu."

Zhang Jinyu directly asked Qin Ye to change the names. Qin Ye was stunned for a while and then agreed to come to the east. That's fine.

"Jin Yu, if that's the case, how will you decide the wedding date?"

When it came to the wedding date, I didn’t understand that. Zhang Jinyu couldn’t answer the question for a while. At that time, Mrs. Wang’s voice came from outside the door,

"The wedding date will naturally be after the wedding ceremony. The in-laws and the Wang family will no longer be so polite."

He saw that his mother Wang Shihan had already led the daughters over, but Qin Ye didn't get up to greet her.

Mrs. Wang was not satisfied with seeing such an honest and kind-hearted old man. She nodded secretly. He was considered a kind person and would definitely not be a hindrance to her son.

Qin Ye said,

"Of course everything about the wedding date will be decided by the Marquis Mansion, and the Qin family will cooperate."

"Then ten months after the big competition, he really wants to go to the palace and make a deal when he comes back. It would be nice for the in-laws to see it."

"Everything depends on my mother-in-law's arrangements."

Seeing that things were almost arranged, Qin Ye asked to leave. Zhang Jinyu quickly arranged for someone to escort him back. At the same time, he told his uncle to please comfort Ke Qing. Qin Ye naturally nodded in agreement.

Anhu camp,

The young princes of various princes' mansions, who had not finished drinking the wine, also left the place as quickly as possible after everyone left after watching such a wonderful fight.

The owner behind Chunlou doesn’t know what he thinks.

Perhaps Niu Jizong saw that this matter was unusual and asked on the way,

"You guys say, how could Jia Zhen from Ningguo Mansion be so brave?"

"No, that's simply unbelievable."

Shi Mingzhu also had to ask doubtfully.

But Chen Ruiwen said with some uncertainty,

"Is there someone behind the scenes who is instigating it? He doesn't look like Jia Lian in Beijing knows anything about it?"

Liu Fang also expressed her doubts.

"Tomorrow, they will leave the camp, and none of the remaining ones will come. The competition will be in a week. Is it possible that someone is up to something dirty?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was excited. Thinking about it, it didn't matter. Jia Lian was arranged as soon as he left the camp. Whether Luo Yunhou came from outside the customs, it didn't matter in the capital.

How a woman could be beaten like that is simply a fantasy.

The more I think about it, the better it gets. It is very likely that if someone had arranged it, then who would have arranged it so meticulously and without flaws that it would be a joy for outsiders to watch.

Hou Xiaolian smelled an unusual smell, thought about it and said carefully,

"It's very true. How can there be such a coincidence? I beg Luo Yunhou and Jia Lian in front of me. Maybe they are the only ones who are unlucky. How come they are all having fun in Chunlou by chance? They are born in Chunlou.

The capital is so big and there are so many brothels."

The young gentlemen on horseback looked at each other and felt sorry for each other. They involuntarily accelerated their horses and headed straight for the Anhu Camp without stopping on the way.

Everyone knew that since Luo Yunhou and the Jia family could be arranged, naturally they could also arrange for their own people. Furthermore, why did the three generals of the border army not enter the city? Did the three of them know in advance.

Then in the next few days, none of the frontier generals left the camp. Jia Lian also finished settling family matters. With a resentful look in his eyes, King Xifeng of Bunqin led his guards on horseback back to the camp without going out.

Beijing,

outside,

Yangxin Hall,

Wu Huang Rong Shihong was walking behind the desk in the imperial study, looking at the secret reports. There were countless memorials from the Imperial City Division in various places, and things were getting more and more day by day. None of them were satisfactory.

Fangdong secretly reported that he stretched out his legs and rubbed his temples to make him feel better. He mistakenly asked Dai Quan, who was waiting there, "

"Tomorrow, I heard that the capital is very lively."

Dai Quan bowed and responded,

"Your Majesty, I'm not denying what happened to Marquis Luo Yun, but the Jia family did something wrong that time. Jia Zhen of the Ningguo Mansion wanted to steal someone's marriage, but was blackmailed out of one hundred thousand taels of silver."

Emperor Wu didn't answer. He stood up and walked to the window. He opened the window and a wisp of cold wind blew in, which made people sober up.

"Your Majesty, it's cold and windy, so please be careful."

Dai Quan consoled him with concern behind him, Wu Huang Rong Shihong blew a bit of cold wind, then slowly closed the window and murmured,

"No, it's cold and windy. Is there anyone who knows about those centuries-old marriages? No one knows, and the Jia family is laughing. Such a thing has caused a storm in the city. I have a hundred thousand taels of silver. Is it really important to have money?

Ah, maybe there is no one who can remember the loan from the Ministry of Finance, which shows how domineering he is."

"Bidong, please calm down. This matter needs to be postponed for a while. After all, it is a big expense for every family to spend money during the winter."

Dai Quan had to be there to advise and admonish him, because his whole body could be affected by the slightest move.

"I also know that you are praying for the New Year, and the court is also praying for the New Year. How to deal with this matter? I guess the old lady of Rongguo Mansion came forward to solve the matter?"

"Your Majesty is wise, but Mrs. Shi of Rongguo Mansion came forward to invite Marquis Luo Yun's family in, and left only after the negotiation was completed. Marquis Luo Yun was not satisfied when he was not seen."

Emperor Wu nodded and then he remembered that there was one thing he had not done.

He said,

"Now that Marquis Luo Yun has moved his residence and settled in the east, the decree of reward will be announced tomorrow, and the mother of Luo Yun Marquis, Wang, will be granted the rank of First-grade Imperial Lady."

"No, Your Majesty."

Wu Huang Rong Shihong then walked back to the desk and filled a cup of tea.

"The Queen has arrived..."

At that time, Empress Jiang took the palace maid into the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart, holding the food box on her legs, with a smile on her face, which could not help but make the somewhat tired Emperor Wu cough.

"If Yuqing is here, why do you have time to come to my place tomorrow?"

"Your Majesty, I miss you so much. Look at the white fungus and lotus seed porridge that I cooked to warm your stomach."

The queen put the food box in front of the desk, took out a pot of incense and opened the lid. The fragrance overflowed, which shocked people. Emperor Wu took a sniff and found that he was hungry.

"The Queen is attentive, but I am really hungry."

Queen Jiang Yuqing took out a small bowl and filled it with a bowl. She held it with her legs and slowly handed it over. Wu Huang Rongshihong took it and took a sip. It was sweet and salty, with the fragrance of lotus seeds and an incomparable aftertaste.
