Chapter 257: Chapter 257
"Don't worry." Qi Qi said harshly. Thinking of the dream she had yesterday, she stood up anxiously, paced, turned around, and said, "No, I want to go to Xidu Mansion."
"What?" Sanjin looked at her in astonishment, his palms clenched tightly, and a hint of darkness and joy flashed in his eyes.
Going to Xidu Mansion? In fact, he also wanted to go, and he had wanted to go for a long time.
But the task his master gave him was to protect his wife, and he could not leave her side.
But now that Madam is going to Xidu Mansion, can't he follow her justifiably?
Sanjin knew that his current thoughts were actually on the edge of a knife. He should not have revealed his master's injury to his wife before, even though she had already guessed it.
However, he still did it.
Alas...it's difficult for him.
"The prince will not agree." Sanjin struggled for the last time.
"He listens to me." Qi Qi said without any shame. Pei Sheng wasn't here anyway. Even if he was, he wouldn't dare to refute her.
"Nothing, let's go." Qi Qi got on the carriage, thinking about how to convince Mrs. Qi when she returned home, and how to explain to her two children.
There was a moment of silence in the court, and then several ministers joined in. It seemed that they were all from the Jin King's faction. Of course, there were also ministers who sang the opposite tune. Some did not want the Jin King to be too proud, and some simply felt that the Jin King was embarrassed. Great responsibility.
If she left with only a few people, she felt it would be safer to follow the army.
Sanjin's heart choked, what else could he say?
Pei Jing took this step and mustered up the courage to take a gamble. Because of his previous gaffes, the Holy Emperor and many ministers had opinions about him. He needed a chance to redeem himself and change his image in the eyes of everyone. But we can't let the third brother be the best in everything.
In the morning court, the contents of the eight hundred miles urgent letter were read out in public, and the court hall was in an uproar. Immediately, the civil servants and military generals began to discuss countermeasures.
The love between her son and daughter-in-law was deep. Concubine Jing could only sigh, knowing that she could not persuade her, so she finally agreed, "Then you should be careful along the way. Don't worry, I will help take care of the children."
Sanjin's attitude was very resolute and he asked his wife to set out alone. He must have gone crazy. If the master knew about it, no one would be able to survive.
Madam Qi is not as good-tempered as Concubine Jing. As soon as she heard that her daughter was going to Xidu Mansion, she immediately got angry and firmly opposed it. She didn't even listen to you and scolded Qi Qi.
"What? You want to go to Xidu Mansion?" Concubine Jing was shocked and shook her head in opposition, "No, it's too dangerous, you can't go."
Sitting on the dragon chair, Emperor Pei looked at the people below indifferently. After a while, he saw that everyone was noisy before he said, "According to King Jin's words, Zhao Qing, please quickly allocate a batch of grain and grass from the Ministry of Household Affairs so that King Jin can prepare it tomorrow." When escorted to the Xidu Prefecture, the war must not be delayed due to lack of food and grass."
She went there as if she was traveling.
Qi Qi said that danger could not lead them, so they retorted that Aniang was not afraid of danger and neither were they.
Finally, Emperor Pei gave him a meaningful look and said, "Second brother, do your job well."
Qi Qi frowned, "Follow, follow from a distance."
"Madam, are we still following the grain and grass?" Banxia asked hesitantly. After all, King Jin was not friendly to the people in Prince Shen's Mansion, but it was obvious to all.
San Jin listened, but frowned fiercely, and objected, "No, my wife must be escorted by more people, and I will arrange this matter. Of course, I will also arrange people here for the young master, so that the young master will not be put in danger."
Qi Qi's eyes were firm, "At least I can stay with the prince."
Hey, it’s not easy to go out.
"Follow your lady's orders."
"Father, I am willing to go to Xidu Mansion to deliver food and support my third brother."
Not long ago, Babaili, who came from Xidu Prefecture, rushed to Kyoto and was waiting for the Holy Lord to summon him.
Qi Qi, however, had made up her mind and said cautiously, "Actually, I have wanted to go for a long time. I should have gone with the prince that day. I just worried about the children, so I hesitated. Now, the battle situation in Xidu Mansion is unclear, and I heard that the prince was injured.
, I don’t know how serious the injury is, but I am really uneasy in the palace, please let me go, I can’t stay any longer.”
This batch of food and grass is related to the livelihood of the frontline soldiers, and she wants to help the prince watch it.
"Naturally." Sanjin nodded in agreement.
Pei Jing, who was beaming with joy, didn't see that look. He was overjoyed and promised excitedly, "Yes, I will definitely do this job well."
"Well, you should go and inquire now to see who the Holy One has sent to deliver the food and grass, and when they will set off." Qi Qi thought for a moment and said, "If possible, we can follow the food and grass together."
The Xiliang Mansion came with such force that even King Shen, known as the God of War, suffered a secret loss. This situation made everyone feel heavy in their hearts.
After getting the accurate information, Qi Qi immediately entered the palace. If she wanted to leave, no one else would have to tell her, but Concubine Jing must tell her.
"Thank you, concubine." Qi Qi smiled.
As for the two children, when they learned that their mother-in-law was going to find their father, they immediately cheered and wanted to go together.
"You heard me right, I will take a few less people with me. You should stay to take over the prince's mission and protect the safety of the prince and the princess." Qi Qi struggled in her heart for a long time last night and decided not to take the children away.
The situation in Xidu Prefecture was unknown, and she could not take the children to take risks.
King Jin was escorting the grain and fodder, and she had a vague feeling that something was going to happen along the way.
Qi Qi wanted to say something, but when she saw his eyes, she knew that it would be useless to say more. Thinking about the specialization of the art, the protection of people, or their experience, she decided not to give random instructions, and only gave one final explanation,
"Then you must arrange enough manpower to protect the young prince and the young princess."
"My lord, I obey the order." The Minister of Household Affairs accepted the order.
After passing the test of Concubine Jing, Qi Qi hurriedly left the palace and stood in front of the carriage returning home. She couldn't help but rub her temples.
"This... it won't help if you go." Seeing that her attitude was really firm, Concubine Jing could only persuade her.
"Ah?" Sanjin didn't understand why he had to follow Liangcao. It was not a waste of time.
At the same time, a secret envelope was sent to Emperor Pei first. After reading it, Emperor Pei was so angry that he threw the envelope on the table to vent his anger.
"Madam." Banxia looked at her worriedly.
Among the crowd, Jin King Pei Jing's eyes flashed, and he felt that this was his chance.
When Qi Qi received the news and heard that it was the King of Jin who was delivering the grain, she was immediately speechless.
At this point, he came to a conclusion and started making arrangements without stopping.
Well, in short, they can reject whatever Qi Qi says.
Qi Qi said helplessly, "I'll set off tomorrow at nine o'clock. If you can get up, follow me. Otherwise, just stay at home and don't cry or make trouble."
Little Star and Little Moon looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
Qi Qi secretly took a long breath and finally got it done.
