I became a farmer's wife, and the cruel and powerful officials forced me to give birth to a chi

The Queen once again asked Madam Liu to find out the news.

However, the group of people sent over before still couldn't find out any information.

Jing Qishan and his wife lead a very regular life. One goes to court every day, while the other takes care of the child at home and writes a diary. Li Yujiao's previous diary was about the child before the age of one year old. She plans to wait until Huaning is two years old and then publish another one about the child from one to two years old.

In addition, Li Yujiao also cleared the plum blossoms in the back garden and started growing vegetables. The group of people sent by the queen spent their days exercising and growing vegetables.

In this way, the family saves money on buying vegetables.

When the queen heard the news, she was so angry that she smashed a pure jade hairpin that Xiling had presented as a tribute.

"Li Yujiao... How dare she treat my people like this!"

Aunt Liu beside her comforted the queen, "Your Majesty, the reason why Madam Jing is so domineering is because Lord Jing loves her. Lord Jing loves her because she is young and beautiful. When she is old and ugly in a few years, Lord Jing will definitely take a concubine. By then, Madam Jing will no longer be the exclusive favorite."

When the queen heard the word "taking a concubine", she suddenly came up with an idea.

"I heard that there's a popular courtesan in the capital recently?"

Madam Liu said, "Yes, this courtesan is called Dong Qiqi. Many people go to see her. Many young masters spend a fortune just to see this courtesan. I heard that the second prince also went to see her, but was scolded by Concubine De and dared not go again."

The queen sneered: "These courtesans have been trained since childhood. Their methods are even better than those of the concubines in the harem. If we let them seduce men, wouldn't it be easier to succeed?"

Aunt Liu understood what she meant: "Your Majesty, do you mean to let this courtesan seduce Jing Qishan?"

"It has always been the case that heroes are often tempted by beautiful women, isn't it?"

Aunt Liu said sincerely: "Your Highness is very wise!"

……

Jing Qishan was invited by the Prime Minister today to attend a banquet at the Prime Minister's residence. He said that the Prime Minister had obtained a painting and asked them to go and see it.

There was not much entertainment these days, and appreciating calligraphy and paintings and tasting fine wine were the greatest entertainment for the ministers.

The prime minister invited only a few people, just the Grand Tutor, a few chancellors, and a few vice ministers.

After viewing the calligraphy and paintings, the next step is wine tasting.

After a few drinks, the Prime Minister smiled and said, "There is another part today. I have invited a singing girl from Liulefang to entertain everyone."

When they heard the word Liu Lefang, everyone's eyes lit up.

Except Jing Qishan.

He had a hunch that the person who would appear should be Dong Qiqi.

Although he changed a lot of things in this life, the people who were supposed to appear did not change, and the people he was supposed to meet had all met in the dark.

Under everyone's excited gaze, the Prime Minister smiled and said, "Yes, I am inviting the courtesan Dong Qiqi from Liulefang."

The Prime Minister clapped his hands, and soon a band came in.

The music started and then the dancers came in.

But these are all just preludes.

When the drum beats became more intense, the violinists wished they could break the strings and the pipa players wished they could grow twenty fingers, Dong Qiqi finally appeared!

She was dressed in red, with a tulle covering her face, and barefoot, with her white feet stepping on the blanket, as light as a butterfly.

She spins and jumps, as if oblivious to the hustle and bustle of the world, making people intoxicated and blurring the years, as if crushing the hourglass of time.

Everyone was fascinated by the sight.

Jing Qishan also stared at Dong Qiqi steadily.

Many scenes from his previous life appeared before his eyes.

Dong Qiqi is a pitiful woman after all. She was trained to be a geisha since she was a child. After winning the title of the oiran, she was used to deal with the powerful officials.

In her previous life, the Queen Mother arranged her to be by his side. He had no one around him, so he used her as a tool to entertain himself. Later, it was rumored among the people that he was terribly in love with Dong Qiqi, and Dong Qiqi also loved him terribly.

When the song ended, everyone applauded.

And Dong Qiqi also unveiled her veil at this time.

A stunningly beautiful face was placed in front of everyone.

Dong Qiqi bowed to everyone one by one and was about to leave when the Prime Minister said, "Qiqi, go and toast to Minister Jing."

After receiving the order, Dong Qiqi walked to Jing Qishan, held the wine cup with her jade hands, and filled Jing Qishan's cup with wine. Then she gently held the wine cup and handed it to Jing Qishan, saying, "Sir Shangshu, please drink."

Jing Qishan took it, drank it all, and then looked at her face.

Dong Qiqi smiled at him sweetly. This smile was like the sun suddenly rising in the cold winter, or like flowers suddenly blooming in the desert. Any man who saw it would be moved.

Jing Qishan smiled faintly at her.

The Prime Minister encouraged Jing Qishan again at this time: "Minister Jing, why don't you let Qiqi dance for you again?"

Jing Qishan said to the Prime Minister: "No need, I don't want my wife to be jealous."

"Minister Jing, you are so young, aren't you planning to take a concubine? Are you only going to marry one woman in your life?"

Jing Qishan smiled and said, "There are three thousand rivers, but I only drink from one."

……

However, the news of Jing Qishan and Dong Qiqi's meeting had already reached Li Yujiao's ears.

It was Hua Hong who brought back the news: "Madam, people outside are saying that the courtesan from Liulefang toasted our master and even danced."

Li Yujiao was originally playing with toys with Jing Huaning. After hearing Hua Hong's words, the toys in her hands fell to the ground.

What is coming cannot be avoided.

In the original book, Jing Qishan and Dong Qiqi loved each other terribly. When Jing Qishan died, Dong Qiqi danced and cried on the city wall, and the whole city felt sorry for her.

Eloquent!

……

Jing Qishan refused Dong Qiqi's dance offer.

When he came out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he suddenly shuddered.

He asked Li Zhongping who was with him: "Is it a lot colder today?"

Li Zhongping said, "Sir, it's almost the twelfth lunar month, and it's going to snow soon."

Snow?

Jing Qishan hasn't seen snow for a long time.

There is no snow in Rongcheng, and there is almost no snow in the southwest. This is the capital city. He died in a heavy snow in his previous life.

On the day he was torn apart by five horses, there was a red figure dancing on the city wall, which stood out particularly against the snowy scenery.

At that time, he felt a little moved.

After playing around for so long, maybe she has him in her heart.

Or maybe I felt sorry for him.

But it's all in vain.

Instead of taking a sedan chair, he walked back home.

"Where is my wife?" Jing Qishan asked Liu Lu.

At this time of day, Li Yujiao would be waiting for her in the front hall with her daughter in her arms.

Liu Lu said, "Madam said the front hall was cold, so she went back to her room."

Jing Qishan returned to the house.

Li Yujiao and Xiao Huaning were playing on the bed. When she saw him coming back, she didn't even glance at him. Only Xiao Huaning stretched out his chubby little hand and shouted, "Daddy!"

Jing Qishan couldn't help but hug Xiao Huaning and said, "Do you miss your daddy?"

Little Huaning nodded, then hugged Jing Qishan's neck and kissed him. The father and daughter loved playing this kind of game the most.
