MTL - The Crown Prince Chases His Wife-Chapter 8 award

On the return journey, Qin Xi finally couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Qin Nian is trying to disgust big sister, stealing chickens won't cost you rice, hahaha..."

"However, it's hard to find a daughter in the palace, so it's worth getting a bottle of the palace's royal scald plaster this time, hahaha..."

Qin Lin held an idle book in her hand, but did not turn a page. She glanced at Qin Xi, who was laughing half-heartedly,

"Our eldest sister is not simple, and the attitude of the saint today can be seen. We do not ask for friendship with her, but we ask not to be evil."

Closing the page, Qin Lin pondered.

Although their aunt, Concubine Shu, had not seen her many times before, she had always looked intellectual and calm in front of others.

And today's performance in the Qianqing Palace...

"Hey, Qin Lin, have you noticed that Concubine Shu today is very different from before! But she scared the baby to death. She was so snarky and mean, how could she be so dignified and elegant? She was like a shrew in the market. Not even my mother-in-law…”

"Qin Xi, what did you say!" Qin Lin interrupted Qin Xi's words.

"Qin Lin, I'm your sister, why are you always scolding me! I'm not wrong, doesn't Concubine Shu always think that A-Niang is a stinky commoner? But at least A-Niang didn't say anything with a gun and a stick, Every sentence is thorny. Isn't it even worse than A-Niang?" Qin Xi muttered, his voice gradually lowered, as if he was a little aggrieved. After that, we happily ate dessert.

"It's a pity that I'm so busy watching the show today that I didn't have time to try the pastries from the imperial pantry in the palace. Make me hungry. Next time there's such a good show, you have to remind me to pamper my stomach before going out."

Qin Lin held her forehead, this second fool.

Concubine Shu was indeed abnormal today, perhaps because she was provoked by Qin Yan, but I heard from her mother that Concubine Shu and Qin Yan's mother Shen Shiying did not deal with them.

She is very fortunate that her mother insisted on dividing the mansion, otherwise, with the current Qin Prime Minister's mansion, I am afraid the family will be uneasy.

------

Qin Yan was taken outside the imperial study, and after a while, Li Fuquan's voice came,

"Xuan Qin Yan sees you."

The beast stove in the hall was burning with ambergris, and Emperor Hui, dressed in a bright yellow robe, sat behind the imperial table.

Qin Yan bowed and bowed,

"The minister's daughter Qin Yan, see Your Majesty."

"No ceremony, give a seat." Emperor Hui was only around fifty, but his voice was already old.

Qin Yan sat on the carved red sandalwood chair, and Li Fuquan served hot tea.

Watching the leaves and smelling the fragrance is the new tea of ​​this year.

"This is this year's Mingqian Longjing. If it suits your taste, Li Fuquan will bring it to you later."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Qin Yan didn't refuse, but every year for spring tea, the head of the business in each state would send it to Gucheng to let her order the tea, and then hand over the best tea to the state government to select tribute tea and send it to the palace. Because she loves tea, Mr. Ji has a lot of Longjing before Ming Dynasty this year.

"Gucheng has worked hard for the past few years." Emperor Hui said.

Qin Yan spoke neither humble nor arrogant,

"It is an honor for a minister and daughter to share the worries for Your Majesty."

Emperor Hui narrowed his eyes slightly, observed Qin Yan's reaction secretly, and then spoke slowly again,

"At that time, the Three Kingdoms stopped the war, and it was agreed that the armies would return to the customs, but there were still occasional harassments on the border. In the name of trade with the Western Regions, I took Gucheng and moved Xiaoguan's defense line a hundred miles away in disguise. You did a good job. "

"At that time, the task of Gucheng was handed over to the Pingxi Army, but the Shen family should not come forward, and Gucheng needed someone who I and the Shen family could absolutely trust. Only your identity is the most suitable. This is also a helpless move. , it's hard for you to be a little girl."

Emperor Hui picked up the colorful silkworm pattern Ruyi teacup in his hand and took a sip. Yu Guang looked at Qin Yan, but when he entered the hall, Qin Yan's eyes were only slightly lowered, and there was no change in his expression.

"Mulan Racecourse is your private property, but you handed it over to Taipu Temple, what reward do you want?"

"The ministers and daughters dare not ask for credit."

Huidi nodded in satisfaction.

After a moment of silence, Emperor Hui spoke again.

"You have a marriage contract with Zhang Yuan?"

Qin Yan's eyes flickered slightly, is Emperor Hui's idea to beat her to get married?

The news from his subordinates flashed in Qin Yan's mind, that Xie Changyuan has blatantly raised a woman who is close to him in the mansion in recent years, and that Xie Changyuan's denial of the marriage contract has been circulated outside, so he can't be cheeky. He lifted his lips and replied:

"It was just a joke between Princess Anyang and her mother back then."

"Good! Good!" Hui Di raised his mouth slightly.

"I haven't been in good health these years, and I rarely deal with political affairs. Now it's the prince's supervision of the country, and the related matters of Gucheng and Mulan Racecourse, you still need to discuss more with the prince."

"If you need anything in the future, you can enter the palace at any time. It's the same as going to the prince. The prince is stable and reliable, so you can rest assured."

"The ministers take orders."

Prince?

Emperor Hui recruited Li Fuquan,

"Put on the chessboard, let's have a game?" But he looked at Qin Yan.

…

Qin Yan had no choice but to accompany him.

------

When he came out of the imperial study, he looked up and saw that it was Wujin Xidroi. Recalling that in the evening in the northwest, under the setting sun, there are horses returning at night, and the horses can be reined in on the racecourse and gallop freely. In this imperial city, even breathing was shallow, the chest cavity was also suppressed, and the ribs were sore.

Arriving at the palace gate, Qin Yan stepped down. Li Fuquan bowed and said:

"The slave family is here to congratulate Zhaoren County Lord in advance."

"Everything in the world is changing rapidly. Father-in-law's words are too early." Qin Yan smiled.

"It's the old slave who made a slip of the tongue." Li Fuquan was slightly surprised, but he was so cautious at such an age.

"Shen Ying." Qin Yan motioned to Shen Ying.

Shen Ying took out a red sandalwood brocade box from the carriage and held up her hands to Li Fuquan.

"This?" Li Fuquan was puzzled.

"Father Li worked hard, it's just some gadgets, and the father-in-law will take it for himself."

"Old slave thanked Miss Qin." Li Fuquan took the brocade box with a smile on his face.

When Qin Yan's carriage left, Li Fuquan opened the sandalwood brocade box and saw a white jade banana leaf pattern chi-ear bottle lying inside. The texture was warm and delicate, and it was the best Hetian jade.

A smile appeared on Li Fuquan's face, the future is limitless.

------

Inside the carriage, Shen Ying couldn't help but be curious,

"The Princess Zhaoren that the father-in-law said just now?"

"The imperial decree should come down in a few days." After entering the palace for a day, he was tired of dealing with it, no less than a round on the battlefield. Since getting in the car, Qin Yan leaned against the cushion and closed his eyes to rest, and he didn't want to say more at this time.

Shen Ying was a little excited.

"I thought that the master was going to the Hongmen banquet today, and I was worried for nothing, county master? And such good things?"

Qin Yan sighed in his heart, how could there be anything cheap, a solid city and a horse farm.

It is not a secret that Mulan Racecourse supplies the military horses of the northwest camp.

It was just that Emperor Hui felt that he knew the current affairs and gave him some compensation.

As for marriage, Prince?

I wish I was overthinking it myself.

------

Qin Mansion, Yanyu Pavilion.

Song Mei nervously dealt with Qin Nian's face injury. Although she was very confident in this palace secret medicine, she still couldn't hold her breath. It was Qin Yan again!

As soon as Qin Xiang entered the room, Song Mei immediately threw himself into Qin Xiang's arms.

"I'm sorely thinking..."

Seeing Qin Nian's left face with the ointment applied, isn't this just fine? Qin Xiang said urgently:

"Niannian what happened?"

After listening to Qin Nian's talk about what happened in Chengqian Palace today, Qin Xiang was not as angry as when Qin Nian was beaten last time, but frowned and didn't say a word.

Today, the sage's attitude towards Qin Yan seems to be partial, while Concubine Shu has been banned. Based on his keen official sense for many years, he should not provoke this eldest daughter recently and wait for the change.

Qin Xiang left a sentence, "The Sacred Heart is unpredictable, it is inconvenient to disclose this matter. Remember, Nian Nian's face is allergic to pollen." Then he left in a hurry.

Qin Nian looked at Song Mei, who was still crying, and was utterly disappointed.

The mother would only cry, and her father seemed to be hopeless, otherwise she would not be a prostitute after all these years.

Some things have to be done by yourself.

Qin Nian gritted his teeth and vowed secretly,

"Qin Yan, the future will be long, and these accounts will be calculated for her one by one!"

------

On the second day, Li Fuquan entered the Qin Prime Minister's mansion with a golden decree.

Everyone in the house was puzzled, and they hadn't heard any wind before. He hurried to the door and knelt down and waited for the decree.

Li Fuquan glanced at the kneeling crowd, and asked Xiang Xiu Mu in the mansion, Qin Xiang,

"Master Xiang, why didn't Qin Yan, the eldest daughter of your house, come to listen to the order?"

Qin Xiang was puzzled why he asked Qin Yan, but he was speechless.

"Qin Yan is not in the mansion at the moment."

"Dare to ask Mr. Xiang, where is Miss Qin."

Only then did everyone understand that this imperial edict was for Qin Yan.

Qin Xiang spoke with difficulty,

"Probably at the township government."

Li Fuquan couldn't smile beyond his eyes, maybe?

Does this father not know where his daughter is?

"Since Miss Qin is not in the mansion, the miscellaneous family will retire."

"Eunuch Li, please wait a moment." Qin Xiang stopped Li Fuquan, who was about to leave.

"Dare to ask Eunuch Li, what is this intention?"

Li Fuquan was full of smiles,

"The miscellaneous family has to congratulate Xiangye, your mansion will have a county master."

Qin Xiang's face was full of disbelief, and he did not forget to instruct Zhang Zheng, the housekeeper, to hand Li Fuquan a packet of silver for tea.

Hearing this, everyone was shocked.

After the establishment of the Great Xia Kingdom, there were very few titles. There were only two princesses in this generation with titles, and the county owner only had the eldest daughter of Duan Wangfu. How can Qin Yan be able to win the title of the county master? Could it be a mistake?

The decree issued to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion was quickly passed back to the Qin mansion.

Qin Yan was granted the title of Zhaoren County Lord, five thousand households in Shiyi, and gave the southern part of the Xishan Palace as the County Lord's Mansion.

Prime Minister Qin sat in front of the hall, and for a jolt of incense, he kept stirring the tea leaves with the tea lid. The tea was already cold, but he didn't take a sip.

Qin Yan made a riot at the Xiangfu Palace and the Chengqian Palace. Not only did the sage not commit the crime, but he had to seal the county master. Moreover, the title Zhaoren and the five thousand households in Shiyi are not the treatment of the county master, but the princess's.

What is the unknown reason behind this? Is it His Majesty's gift to the Duke of Zhenguo? Or, is it a warning to the Qin Mansion?

It was impossible for Li Fuquan, who issued the decree, to not know that Qin Yan did not live in Qin's mansion, but the imperial decree came to Qin Xiang's mansion. This was a deliberate demonstration. Over the years, he has relied on his keen political sense, pursued advantages and avoided disadvantages, and had a smooth career, so he could not lose his heart in Qin Yan's affairs.

Qin Xiang opened his mouth,

"Zhang Quan, repeat what Qin Yan told the Prime Minister before Qin Yan left the house that day."

The housekeeper Zhang Quan memorized the words Qin Yan left before leaving the house that day.

Qin Xiang sighed,

"According to what she said, let Mrs. Song and Miss Nian move back to the original courtyard of the old house."

"Write a letter to the patriarch and the patriarch, and Mrs. Song's promotion of his wife as a flat wife is for now. The hard-working patriarch and the patriarch have traveled a long way to convey their apologies on behalf of the prime minister. That's it." Qin Xiang's tone was exhausted.

Zhang Quan was startled, the eldest lady gained the upper hand. Then he helped Concubine Song to humiliate the eldest lady? Zhang Quan backed out.

Song Mei and Qin Nian who got the news smashed the vase in the room, but they couldn't resist Qin Xiang's arrangement.

The old lady kept reciting the wicked girl in the Buddhist hall, and I heard that she had dropped several rosary beads.

------

The news spread quickly in Shangjing, and everyone was amazed at the fate of the daughter of the Qin mansion, and felt sorry for Xie Shizi of Yongding Hou's mansion, and rejected this marriage, Xie Shizi really won't regret it?

When Xie Changyuan got the news, what he thought of was not the marriage, but what did the ex-fiancee get for the title? He knew very well that his uncle, Emperor Hui, was good at power and tricks, and this action was very abrupt. There must be some reason.

And A Yan in Yongding Hou's mansion was planting flowers when she heard the news, but she accidentally knocked down her most beloved Jihong Plum Blossom Porcelain Porcelain Vase.

This porcelain bottle was the first gift that brother Chang Yuan gave her when she was shopping with her. A Yan immediately squatted down to pick up the pieces of the porcelain bottle, the index finger of her right hand was separated by a sharp piece of porcelain, and bright red blood came out instantly.

The maid rushed over to help A Yan up and cleaned her wound, while A Yan was stunned by the little maid.

Qin Yan, as brother Zhang Yuan's nominal fiancee, was quite afraid of her previous status. But now, Qin Yan has to seal the county master, even if it is her true identity, she can't suppress her.

I hope this will not change Brother Chang Yuan's mind. A Yan knows about the unpleasant past between Xie Changyuan and Yongding Hou Xie'an. Brother Chang Yuan is not that kind of person. Brother Chang Yuan will not look back, definitely not...

All the masters in the palace were relieved when they received this news. When Concubine Shu, who was locked up in confinement, heard this, she was shocked. His Majesty really wanted to humiliate her like this, for Shen Shiying's sake.

In the north of the Xishan Palace, the Prince's Mansion, Feng Zhan's eyes narrowed slightly after hearing the news reported by Song Zhi. His intuition was correct. Qin Yan or Northwest, there must be something he didn't know.

Now his own private soldiers are stationed there in the north, and Ping Nanbo is still honest in the south. But in the past few years, the spies who went to the northwest have received a lot of information that is not logical. This made Feng Zhan very puzzled about Northwest. Although there was no trouble, it felt very bad not to be in control.

"His Royal Highness, now the southern part of the palace has been given to Zhaoren County Master. Do you want to build a wall for the plum forest connecting the north and south palaces?"

"That's right." There was no doubt about it, Feng Zhan was tired of trouble, especially women's trouble.

A few years ago, Feng Zhan just returned to Beijing, and Feng Zhan lived in the East Palace. That night, a woman who had arranged for him appeared on the couch of the sleeping hall. Feng Zhan was furious and moved to the Xishan Palace overnight. He then rebuilt the Xishan Palace into the Prince’s Mansion. .

As for the southern part of the palace, the old man never let go, saying that he would occasionally use it when he came to the palace to escape the summer heat. Oh, now it is cheaper for others.

At this time, Feng Zhan still didn't know that the high wall he built would have to be pushed down by himself in the future.
