Quick Wear: The Development of a Pure Cannon Fodder
Chapter 186 The Frustrated Crown Prince’s Wife (27)
Chen Jingchi naturally knew about this, so when he heard the servant say that the Right Prime Minister had obtained a new calligraphy and painting and asked Yu Li to come and see it, he smiled and said, "I didn't expect that the Right Prime Minister's hobbies have remained unchanged over the years."
Yu Li was also helpless. "Yes, this is my father's only hobby. Anyway, I have nothing else to do, so why don't you come with me to take a look?"
"Okay." Chen Jingchi naturally agreed happily.
On the way, Yu Li asked the servant, "Is this new calligraphy and painting that father received a gift from His Majesty?"
"No, sir. It was sent by the eldest son of Duke Cheng'en." The servant shook his head.
When they heard that it was the young master of the Jiang family, Yu Li and Chen Jingchi were both stunned. After Yu Li reacted, he was delighted. Could it be that Jiang Qi from the Cheng'en family saw through the thoughts of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, and after they parted at the hunting ground, he thought that his sister was not bad, so he hit it off with them?
Chen Jingchi was full of doubts.
The Cheng'en Mansion was the Empress Dowager's family, and the entire family was still in seclusion due to grief. Why did they suddenly send calligraphy and paintings to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion? Or was it Jiang Qi who sent it personally? I haven't heard of any contact between the Cheng'en Mansion or the Empress Dowager and the Right Prime Minister's Mansion in recent years.
But Chen Jingchi's doubts changed when he saw that in the study, in addition to the Right Prime Minister who was looking at the calligraphy and painting in the middle, and Jiang Qi who was on the right side of the Right Prime Minister, there was also Yu Ziyin standing on the left side of the Right Prime Minister. At the same time, he also guessed who the husband chosen by the Right Prime Minister's Mansion for Yu Ziyin was, and it was Jiang Qi from the Cheng'en Mansion!
The Cheng'en Mansion had spies planted in the palaces of every prince, and the status of those spies was not low. So when the Fourth Prince attacked Yu Li, the spy standing next to him naturally heard the conversation between the Fourth Prince and Yu Li. He knew that Jiang Qi had been observing the situation of the Yu family, so he used the excuse of going to the toilet to report the matter as soon as possible. After learning about this situation, Jiang Qi also understood why the Right Prime Minister's Mansion was so anxious to marry Yu Zinyin off. It was because of the two big troubles, the Fourth Prince and the Dong family.
These two troubles are really nothing to the Cheng'en Mansion, which is the Empress Dowager's family and supported the Emperor to ascend to the throne. If this marriage is successful, both parties will only become stronger.
Therefore, after an urgent discussion with Duke Cheng'en, Jiang Qi went directly to the mansion of Duke Cheng'en with calligraphy and paintings to express the intention of the mansion. This is also the reason why Jiang Qi was in the Right Prime Minister's Mansion.
The Right Prime Minister, who had designed the two children to meet in the hunting ground, naturally understood Jiang Qi's intention of bringing calligraphy and paintings to his house, and was very happy to take this opportunity to let the two children get to know each other better. So after Jiang Qi arrived at the Right Prime Minister's residence, Yu Ziyin was also called to the study to appreciate the calligraphy and paintings. As for asking Yu Li to come over, it was purely because the Right Prime Minister liked the calligraphy and paintings, and asked his son to come and appreciate them with him, so that his purpose of letting the two children get along would not be so obvious.
But the appearance of Chen Jingchi was a surprise to the right prime minister.
"Chen Jingchi, son of Chen Zheng, greets the Right Prime Minister." Chen Jingchi tried hard to control his emotions, retracted his gaze, and saluted the Right Prime Minister in front of him.
Jiang Qi had been keeping an eye on Chen Jingchi since he came in. When he saw that he was looking at him with other emotions besides shock, his gaze subtly swept towards Yu Ziyin on the left side of the right prime minister.
When investigating Yu Zinyin, he already knew that Yu Zinyin, the daughter of the Right Prime Minister who was known as the most beautiful woman in the capital, had countless suitors. And today alone, he knew that there were already two of them, and the power behind them was quite powerful. It seemed that his rival in love really should not be underestimated.
Among so many outstanding people, being noticed by the other party actually made Jiang Qi feel inexplicably happy. Even though he didn't know what he was happy about, it was really strange.
Yu Zinyin, whose senses were sharper than before, naturally felt the other person's gaze. She glanced sideways and met his smiling eyes. She was stunned for a moment, a little puzzled. What was this man laughing at?
Seeing Yu Zinyin's stunned confusion and then turning around to look at the boy from the Chen family frankly, Jiang Qi's eyes flashed. Could it be that Yu Zinyin didn't know what the boy from the Chen family was thinking?
Thinking of this, a smile flashed across Jiang Qi's eyes.
It turns out that Chen Jingchi is not even a love rival, but I am already on guard.
"So you are Jingchi!" The Right Prime Minister smiled and stepped forward, patting Chen Jingchi on the shoulder. "Good boy, your father often talked about you in front of me. Now that I see you, you are indeed a handsome man with a dignified appearance!"
"My father always exaggerates me outside, but Right Prime Minister must not take it seriously." Chen Jingchi could always catch a glimpse of the two people looking at each other and interacting with each other out of the corner of his eye, and his smile seemed a little forced.
"No need to call me Right Prime Minister, it's unfamiliar. I'm a few years older than your father, so just call me Uncle."
"Yes, right...ahem, Uncle Yu." Chen Jingchi's change of words was a little awkward, but he did not forget to salute.
The Right Prime Minister smiled brightly and walked the two children towards the calligraphy and painting spread out in the middle. He said, "Come, come, take a good look at this calligraphy and painting. This is from the famous teacher Ruixuan! Look at the brushstrokes and the flowing handwriting. He is indeed a famous calligraphy and painting teacher!"
Jiang Qi chuckled, "As long as Uncle likes it, that's good. My father has collected many calligraphy and paintings by the famous teacher Ruixuan in the Cheng'en Mansion. If Uncle has time later, he can bring his family to appreciate it together."
This was particularly interesting to the attentive people present. After all, the only person who liked calligraphy and painting was the Right Prime Minister, not his family. So why should he let the Right Prime Minister bring his family to appreciate it? This was actually Jiang Qi promoting the engagement process between the two parties.
Everyone present was interested, including Yu Li and Chen Jingchi who came in later and also understood the meaning of each other's words. Both of them were in different moods, one was naturally happy, while the other looked at the woman in green standing in front of the left with mixed feelings.
Chen Jingchi thought meanly that if Yu Zinyin showed displeasure, perhaps he would still have a chance to get close to the other party. After Jiang Qi left, he could express his feelings for his daughter to the Right Prime Minister, even if this would make the Chen family confront the Prince's Mansion, the Dong family and the Fourth Prince. But now Chen Jingchi, whose brain was controlled by impulse, could not think so much and just wanted to get it first.
But when he saw that there was no displeasure or displeasure on the girl's face, but she gently raised the corners of her lips with a smile, and looked at Jiang Qi next to her with the smile that made him fall in love at first sight, his heart sank.
Yes, a marriage with the Cheng'en Mansion would be able to change the current difficulties of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion. Moreover, if Jiang Qi had not encountered the situation where an elder in his family passed away and he had to stay at home, he would have been a famous noble family in the capital and would not be so unknown. The important thing is that the other party's mourning period will end next year. By then, Yu Zinyin will have reached the age of marriage, and the two parties can just announce the marriage to the public. It is simply the right time, place and people.
