Quick Wear: My love-brained childhood sweetheart always asks me for a kiss
Chapter 326: The Gloomy Regent vs. the Fake Gold Spy (23)
The recent situation in Hezhou is not bad. Gu Jingxuan eats and lives with the people below him every day. He sometimes does the work of distributing porridge and setting up tents himself. So now the people of Hezhou know that a people-friendly Gu Shaoqing has come to Beijing.
"This Gu Shaoqing is really a good official! With him, our Hezhou will be saved!"
"It's a good thing that the Regent sent Gu Shaoqing here. What's the use of having that Prime Minister?"
"That's right. He just spends his days drinking and having sex with girls all over. I don't know what he was sent here for."
"I guess they just want to find a high-ranking official to take charge."
"With him? How can he control the situation? It's really ridiculous."
Chi Mingyu has been intoxicated by the gentleness of the past few days. It is said that Hezhou is home to beautiful women, and after coming here, I know that the rumors are true.
The local officials also gave him a good medicine. After taking it, he felt younger. There were five beauties in his room last night, but he didn't feel tired at all.
The official had promised to develop a large batch for him to use before he returned to Beijing. After that, someone would send it back to the capital at a fixed time and place.
Chi Mingyu felt so relieved. He immediately said that he would ask for a reward for him during his visit to Beijing.
Everyone knows that he is the most trusted person by the emperor now, and he also has a son-in-law who is the regent.
There are countless people who want to curry favor with him.
He just wanted to be promoted. The flood problem will surely be solved well. His prestige among the people will be further enhanced. When the emperor asks him for rewards, he can report the names of the people he wants to promote.
This way he can achieve his goal and also give people the impression that he is not greedy for credit.
It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
"Is he still staying in the yard today?" Gu Jingxuan certainly knew the rumors outside. Although the people were telling the truth, if Chi Mingyu really heard it, the scene would be quite ugly.
"Ever since County Magistrate Yu gave him the medicine, he has never left his room again. Every day he is eager to show off his virility. Women come to him one after another. I am really afraid that he will die in bed."
Gu Jingxuan was a little embarrassed, "There's no need to be so blunt..."
"Who in Hezhou doesn't know about his troubles now? What the common people outside say is much worse than what I say."
Gu Jingxuan understood immediately. It seemed that the people had just been lenient with him because of his presence.
However, what Chi Mingyu did was indeed a bit inappropriate.
Lai Hao was also ordered to come here, but he did not properly handle the problems for the people. He indulged in women all day long and could not get out of bed. He also took medicine continuously.
Can you take that kind of medicine all the time?
If I continue to be so unrestrained, I'm afraid I won't be able to return to Beijing alive.
But he is worried about it now, and no one can persuade him.
No. To be precise, it should be: who dares to persuade.
Chi Mingyu is the highest-ranking official here. Even if we don't consider his official position, no one dares to mess with him because he is highly valued by the emperor and his son-in-law is the regent.
It's a very clever plan.
Let him do all the work, and he will still be credited when he returns to Beijing.
As the highest official, he can even gain a reputation for being good at managing his subordinates.
Unfortunately, he went too far and everyone knew about it.
The Regent also sent a letter two days ago, asking him to concentrate on his work and promising that he would receive the rewards and incentives he deserved.
He knew that Song Shiyan would definitely do what he said.
I’m afraid these rumors are not limited to Hezhou.
Song Xuanchu has also been paying attention to the developments in Hezhou. After seeing the letter, his face darkened, "I really shouldn't have expected anything from Chi Mingyu. It's fine if he has no talent, but he can't even pretend."
"So the chess pieces that should be abandoned must be abandoned."
The sudden voice made Song Xuanchu stunned for a moment, "Why is the queen mother here? How do the servants outside do their work?"
"It was I who didn't allow them to pass on the message."
Song Xuanchu suppressed his unhappiness and asked, "What did the queen mother mean by what she said just now?"
"Since it's useless, there's no need to come back."
"Your Majesty's intention is... to let me kill Chi Mingyu?"
"I heard that Chi Tingwan and Song Shiyan have consummated their marriage." Queen Mother Li sat down on the chair. "Chi Tingwan and Chi Mingyu have indeed had a bad relationship recently. But they are biological father and daughter after all. No matter how much resentment Chi Tingwan feels, this fact cannot be erased. Can she really sever her relationship with Chi Mingyu?"
Song Xuanchu immediately understood most of it, "What the Queen Mother meant is..."
"If Chi Mingyu died in Hezhou on this trip, what do you think she would think?"
"It was the uncle who ordered Prime Minister Chi to go to Hezhou that day. If Prime Minister Chi really died in Hezhou this time, Chi Tingwan would definitely hold him responsible."
"That's not all." Empress Dowager Li smiled, "If Song Shiyan is the culprit who killed Chi Mingyu, then there will be no possibility for him and Chi Tingwan."
No woman would be willing to be with the murderer of her father.
"Mother, this is a very wise idea." When Song Xuanchu thought about Chi Ting and Song Shiyan becoming enemies at the party, he felt indescribably happy.
"The emperor seems to be very happy. But I hope you remember one thing. Chi Tingwan is no longer the Chi Tingwan of the past. Even if she and Song Shiyan really fall out, she will never come back to you. Even if she can pull that shameless face, I will never agree."
Song Xuanchu looked cold, "Mother, you are overthinking. Even if she kneels down in front of me and cries and admits her mistakes, I will never forgive her. How can a withered flower like me be qualified to serve the emperor?"
"I'm glad that the emperor understands." Empress Dowager Li looked relieved.
*
Song Shiyan, who was stripped down to only a pair of underwear, had a helpless look on his face, "My wife is really amazing. I am ashamed of myself as you are not as good as her."
Chi Tingwan smiled and played with the darts that Song Shiyan had taken off his body, "Your Highness, are you really going to lose everything today?"
"It's not shameful to lose to my own wife. But...my wife should still play with this." Song Shiyan handed over the fan pendant on the table, "That thing is sharp and has no eyes. Don't be careless and hurt your hand again."
"Your Highness should worry more about yourself. If you lose again, you will have no choice but to run naked."
"My lady, are you really going to be so cruel?" Song Shiyan slowly moved towards her, "It's already cold in autumn..."
Chi Tingwan pushed him away mercilessly, "Stay away, don't try to get close to me."
"My lady, since you took off my clothes, you should be responsible for me."
Chi Tingwan was speechless. "Please understand clearly. You took off your clothes because you lost. What's more, you did it all by yourself from beginning to end. I didn't even touch a finger of yours."
Song Shiyan suddenly realized, "So that's it." He quickly moved closer to Chi Tingwan, took her hand and put it on his waist. He pulled hard and the belt broke.
Chi Tingwan: “???????”
What a cool move.
He was still holding Chi Tingwan's hand and placing it somewhere.
Hearing his slightly restrained hum, Chi Tingwan was even more shocked.
"Do you still want to lose face?"
"Compared to this face that I'm tired of seeing, I still want my wife more." Song Shiyan stood up slightly and moved closer to her, letting his underwear fall (shake) to the ground, and then kissed the corner of her lips.
"Wanwan...I'm so sick, can you help me, please?"
Listening to his low whispers in her ear, Chi Tingwan wanted to cover her face.
Help, he's so sexy.
The way he tried his best to seduce her made her think of the dimension of the nine-tailed fox.
Without paying attention, his character collapsed again.
I really can't recall it. Thinking of this, he felt that Song Shiyan's tail was about to grow out.
Before Fan Tong could react, he was locked in the small dark room. He couldn't help but sigh. There weren't many entertainment activities in the small dark room recently, and it was quite boring to be locked in.
He just wanted to shout out: What is there that a supreme SVIP-level senior commander like him cannot see or hear?
How long has it been and you still treat them as outsiders?
Song Shiyan remembered the mistake he made last night, and this time he said it once and for all. He called for water before midnight.
The next day, Song Shiyan did not ask for leave, but he did not go to the Golden Palace in advance. Instead, he went there on time.
There was nothing important happening in the court, so everyone dispersed early.
The eunuch in charge of the Purple Palace came to invite him to the Imperial Study, "The Emperor said there are some things he doesn't understand and wants to consult the Regent."
"No. I'm not free today." After saying that, Song Shiyan left the palace directly.
Song Xuanchu looked at the book "Policy Theory" on the table expressionlessly, "He probably stayed at her place again last night."
The young eunuch hung his head and said nothing.
"That's why he doesn't have time."
Song Xuanchu couldn't help but think back to the past.
The emperor's uncle had been very kind to him in the past, and he always granted whatever he wanted.
He quarreled with his master and was scolded by his mother. He did not dare to talk to his father about these trivial matters.
Only the emperor's uncle would patiently wait for him to talk about these trivial things, and then teach him with examples and principles with a smile how to get out of the dead end.
When did he start to feel resentful towards his uncle?
It seemed like it was the time when I saw the Queen Mother expressing her feelings to the Emperor's uncle.
He knew since he was a child that there was no love between his father and his mother.
I also know that the queen mother's gentleness and generosity are all fake. She has countless lives on her hands, and killing people is easier for her than crushing an ant.
When he was young, he thought his mother was terrible, but as he grew up, he also understood her helplessness.
The palace has its own difficulties. If you are not ruthless, others will be more ruthless than you.
Fortunately, his mother still truly loves him.
But after hearing what his mother said to his uncle, he suddenly realized that the person his mother loved most was not him.
He is the legitimate son of his father, and he is the crown prince by right. But his father and mother both want the emperor's uncle to take this position.
The emperor's father has never loved him, and everyone in the court only listens to his uncle.
The queen mother loved him on the surface, but secretly she also wanted to support her uncle.
The uncle refused very straightforwardly, and he could see that it was not a tactic of playing hard to get. But he was not happy.
He knew that it was not the emperor's uncle's fault that his mother loved him, but he still couldn't suppress the resentment in his heart.
When he saw the will, he became even angrier.
It turns out that my father had once thought of arranging a marriage between Wanwan and my uncle.
He didn't need to think too much about the reason why this decree was not issued. It must have been rejected by the emperor's uncle again.
He had told his uncle several times that he liked the eldest daughter of the Chi family.
How could his uncle, who had such noble character, possibly compete with him for it?
But for some reason, he just couldn't feel grateful.
Whatever he wanted with all his might, his good uncle always had it within reach.
However, although it is within reach, it has never been truly touched. Saints are no more than this.
The more he saw, the more angry he became. His uncle said he should be wary of the emperor's uncle. His mother also said he must get rid of the emperor's uncle. Although he knew they all had their own thoughts, he still agreed without hesitation.
He issued that edict not only to get rid of his uncle, but also to let his uncle see that there are still things in this world that he cannot get.
Wanwan and he grew up together and they were in love. Everyone said they were a perfect match. He thought so too.
He firmly believed that Wanwan could pass this test. She would help him get rid of the emperor's uncle. She would return to him with a smile on her uncle's body.
But it turned out that he was totally wrong.
Everything was just as my mother said.
She betrayed him and fell in love with the emperor's uncle.
The two of them became known as a perfect match. The emperor's uncle became the best man in Kyoto, and she became the most envied woman in Kyoto.
As the matchmaker who had done his best to bring about their marriage, he could only watch them happily. He was not even qualified to express his regret.
What right did he have to regret it? He was the one who facilitated this marriage.
"If I had known this would happen, I should have made her my woman after she married into the Prince Regent's Palace."
"It doesn't matter...it will be over soon. Everything will be back on track." Song Xuanchu smiled crazily, "They won't be happy, never..."
The young eunuch couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The emperor was getting more and more crazy. What should he do?
We can't let the Queen Mother persuade him. After all, the Queen Mother is crazier than the Emperor.
But others don't have the weight or position to advise.
Song Shiyan went to Linglong Pavilion to buy cakes again. When he returned home, he happened to see Chi Tingwan getting up.
Unfortunately, there was still some official business to be dealt with in the study, so he could only give the cakes to Perrin first.
He quickly finished his work and took Chi Tingwan, who had just finished breakfast, out to the market.
Chi Tingwan has been staying at home for a long time. Last night she kept saying that she wanted to go out for a walk.
Song Shiyan had no experience of visiting the market, and neither did Qin Che.
In order to complete the task, Qin Che had no choice but to go to the mansion and ask others.
It’s a pity that the only women in the mansion are the lady in the kitchen, Chi Tingwan, and the four maids around her.
Su Shu and Su Hua are both secret guards, and they usually don't have the chance to go out and wander around.
Doukou and Peilan were Chi Tingwan's personal maids. They stayed around her all day without moving, so there was no chance for her to find out.
Therefore, Song Dynasty inkstones can only be left to fate.
Seeing Chi Tingwan looking at the candied haws, Song Shiyan decisively bought three strings. Doukou and Peilan were very happy to eat them, but Chi Tingwan tasted one and thought it was sour and threw it to him.
Doukou laughed immediately, "Miss loved sugar-coated haws when she was little. But His Highness wouldn't let her eat them. He said they were unclean. Later, His Highness left and no one in the mansion cared about her anymore. So she asked Peilan to buy a dozen skewers. But she didn't even finish one. She said it didn't taste like what she remembered."
"Is it because they were not bought from the same store?" Song Shiyan was a little confused.
Chi Tingwan was speechless. "No, it's not. There's a saying that what you can't get is the best. And when you're young, you're not sensible and it's easy to develop a rebellious mentality. The more my mother forbids me to eat, the more I want to eat. But when I really eat it, I find that the taste is not as good as I thought."
