The White-haired Queen

Chapter 51 Grounded

On this street in East Market, only the employees of the money house had time to go off work at noon. Based on this fact, the money house was promoted everywhere.

Wen Lanyue, Lin Yuanzhi, Mo Jiang and Hong He went to the "King of Kings" private room of the Beijing Restaurant.

As soon as they sat down, the owner of the Beijing Restaurant brought a bowl of imperial Buddha Jumps Over the Wall and placed it in front of Wen Lanyue, then stood with his hands clasped, waiting for Wen Lanyue's instructions.

Wen Lanyue brought the bowl of imperial Buddha Jumps Over the Wall to Mo Jiang and said with a smile, "Mo Ge..." Seeing that the shopkeeper was still there, he changed his words and said, "Old Mo, try it."

Mo Jiang didn't feel embarrassed at all. He just picked it up and took a sip. He smacked his lips and said, "It's different. It tastes good. It's fresh, fragrant and strong."

Wen Lanyue said, "As long as it tastes good." Then he turned to the shopkeeper and said, "You go down first."

The shopkeeper bowed and said, "I'll take my leave."

After a few minutes, the waiter brought three bowls of the imperial Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.

Wen Lanyue was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why did you bring three bowls of the imperial Buddha Jumps Over the Wall?"

The waiter said, "I don't know the details. I brought it here according to the order of the shopkeeper."

Wen Lanyue looked at Honghe and said, "Go over and take a look to see if you made a mistake."

A few minutes later, Hong He came back and said, "The clerk said the shopkeeper was out, and the others said they didn't know."

Wen Lanyue said, "Well, let's taste it first. It will taste different when it's cold."

Mo Jiang made sighing sounds from time to time, just like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden.

Wen Lanyue looked at his exaggerated expression and felt satisfied and happy. Wen Lanyue suddenly felt that happiness is a mood and an ability. The Pavilion Master Mojiang has the ability to make people happy.

Wen Lanyue said, "How about we come to the 'King of Kings' to get together next Mid-Autumn Festival?"

Mo Jiang waved his hand and said, "I want to go home to be with my wife and children during the Mid-Autumn Festival. That is a day for family reunion." Then he said stubbornly, "On that day, I will only eat the food cooked by the old lady. I want to eat with her."

Everyone couldn't help laughing again.

After eating and drinking, Wen Lanyue said goodbye to Lin Yuanzhi and Mo Jiang and went straight back to the palace.

As soon as they arrived at Shengde Palace, Bilian said, "This morning, Concubine Zhang found another injured dog in her courtyard."

Wen Lanyue looked up at Bilian and said, "That's not right. Why are there only injured animals in her palace every day?"

Bilian said, "I have the same question."

Wen Lanyue said: "Then let the secret guards keep an eye on Concubine Zhang's residence day and night."

Bilian said: "I have arranged for Dongchen to keep an eye on it."

Wen Lanyue said: "Okay."

Bilian said, "Today in the court, the regent recommended his subordinate Qi Shaojie to replace Prefect Tian, ​​so I didn't ask about the prefect of Yuedi."

Wen Lanyue said: "Have you asked about Qi Shaojie?"

Bilian said, "He is from the Ministry of War. The Ministry of Personnel has no information about him. In the past, Honghe was the one who contacted the Ministry of War for information. I just asked Honghe to find out."

Wen Lanyue said: "Okay, you did a great job."

Bilian said, "Today, the court discussed the memorial of Consort Zhang again. The censor surnamed Wang once again proposed that a young lady be buried alive with the emperor to prevent women from having such unfaithful thoughts again, and some of the older ministers agreed."

Wen Lanyue asked: "Let a young lady be buried alive with you?"

Bilian said: "Originally, it was proposed that Concubine Zhang be buried alive with the emperor, but because the prime minister is her brother, it was proposed that a young lady be buried alive with the emperor as a warning to the women in the harem."

Wen Lanyue asked: "Then it's good that you didn't target Grand Concubine Zhang."

Bilian said, "Grand Imperial Concubine Zhang was asked to be confined to her house. The emperor's oral order was conveyed this morning. They also asked that you, the Empress Dowager, be confined to your house."

Wen Lanyue said: "Banned my feet? Why?"

Bilian said: "Because you agreed with Concubine Zhang's opinion..."

Suddenly, a voice came: "The imperial edict has arrived." A eunuch came in and said, "The emperor has ordered that the Empress Dowager Dong be confined for three days."

Before Wen Lanyue could react, the little eunuch had disappeared without a trace.

Wen Lanyue asked: "They want to confine me, but the Regent King has no objection?"

Bilian shook her head and said, "I haven't heard of it."

Then, Bilian handed Wen Lanyue two imperial edicts and said, "These two imperial edicts, one is the order for the transfer of Tian Fangzhou, the prefect, to Beijing, and the other is the order for Qi Shaojie to be the prefect of Yuedi. The emperor brought them to you, the queen mother, to affix the imperial seal."

Wen Lanyue said, "Let's wait until Honghe comes back before we build it."

As soon as she finished speaking, Hong He pushed the door open and walked in. She said, "Your Majesty, Qi Shaojie is the eldest son of Doctor Qi Tianxing. He has an outstanding appearance, is good at both literature and martial arts, and also has medical skills."

Wen Lanyue repeated in a low voice, "Doctor Qi Tianxing?"

Hong He said, "Yes, it was Doctor Qi who treated my burns."

Wen Lanyue asked thoughtfully, "Is it Doctor Qi from Taoyuan Town?"

Hong He said, "Yes. He was well-read since he was young, and his family wanted him to inherit medicine, but he was particularly interested in arranging troops and formations, and he was very talented, so he joined the army and has been trained for more than ten years. Now he is a general."

Hong He started to talk nonstop again: "I heard that his personal fighting ability is also very high. He is ranked third in the list of the top ten killers of Shangxie Country. I want to meet him. If there is a chance in the future, please help me introduce him to him, Queen Mother."

The atmosphere was serious just now, but after hearing Hong He's words, Wen Nuan Yue couldn't help but want to laugh, and teased her, "You are such a flower maniac.

Hong He said cheekily: "What's wrong with being a fangirl? Isn't it normal to admire a hero?"

Bilian, who was standing by, also smiled gracefully after hearing this.

After hearing what Hong He said, Wen Lanyue felt relieved and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll let you meet her when I have the chance." Then he turned to Bi Lian and said, "You can seal the jade seal."

Bilian stamped the jade seal and left. Honghe also left when she saw that the empress dowager had no further instructions.

Wen Lanyue took out the design of the printing press and began to figure it out bit by bit. This was a letterpress printing press...

Wen Lanyue was disassembling the blueprint step by step when a voice saying "The Emperor has arrived" interrupted her thoughts. She put the blueprint back and took out the "Essentials of Governing a Country" that she had prepared earlier, ready to give it to the little emperor and exempt herself from house arrest.

Wen Lanyue heard: "All of you go down, I want to accompany my mother alone, don't come in and disturb me unless I call you."

As the footsteps outside faded away, the door was pushed open. The little emperor called affectionately, "Sister Yue'er, Sister Yue'er."

Seeing Wen Lanyue, the little emperor immediately ran over and hugged her waist, explaining: "Sister Yue'er, don't be angry with me. I had no choice but to restrict your footing. I came here specially to accompany Sister Yue'er this afternoon."
