Lady of Fortune, Jiao Niang

Ye Jiao was eating at ease, but Qi Yun couldn't swallow.

He could have guessed that the identity of the third son was unusual early in the morning, but now it has only confirmed this.

Since the woman named Hua Ning was called Your Highness, she was either a princess or a princess. She also said that her father came to look for her brother after being seriously ill, and now the only one in the palace is seriously ill.

Such a pair, then one of them is a prince and the other is a princess.

Since he is the third son, I am afraid he is the third prince.

However, he is just an ordinary citizen, and has nothing to do with officials and officials. This is not at the feet of the emperor. Ordinary people are actually similar to their own maidens. Hearing the two words, I am afraid that they can't reflect who they are, let alone know the names of the prince and prince. .

If he was the third prince, Qi Yun would still know that it was King Duan. After all, the fief where King Duan was granted was not far from here, and everyone nearby knew it.

But, King Duan... Qi Yun suddenly felt that the invitation in his arms was a bit hot.

Seeing that he always picks vegetables for herself, Ye Jiao turned her head to look at him: "Msang Gong, you also eat."

Qi Yun smiled and sighed in his heart.

These things really can't be said before eating, they really affect appetite.

Ye Jiao picked up the chopsticks and Luo Min meat and gave him: "This is delicious, please move the chopsticks."

Even if Qi Yun thought about it in his head, he couldn't eat it, but after seeing Ye Jiao's expectant eyes, he still ate it.

When Ye Jiao saw what she had caught, he ate it, and was so happy to feed her husband instead. Qi Yun couldn't bear to give the lady's kindness and accept it all. In the end, he ate more than usual.

Waiting into the night, Ye Jiao coaxed Xu Bao, who had just finished her milk, to sleep on the bed, but his eyes looked at Qi Yun.

Qi Yun met her gaze and said warmly: "What do you think I am doing?"

Ye Jiao looked at Xu Bao, who was asleep, and pulled a little quilt over him, surrounded by soft pillows, and then said to Qi Yun: "Msang Gong, you just said you want to explain Hua Ning's name to me. of."

Small ginseng obviously has a good memory.

Qi Yun sighed, not hiding anything from her, pulling her to sit down, and explaining the matter to her clearly.

After finishing talking, Ye Jiao blinked and summed up: "In other words, San Gongzi and Hua Ning are brothers and sisters, both born to the emperor, right?"

Qi Yun nodded.

"It's huge?"

"It's huge."

"Bigger than the county prime minister in the city?"

"Big."

"Oh." Ye Jiao didn't say anything more. She responded and yawned, "I've written down these names, so I won't call them wrong next time. Father, let's sleep." To the bed.

Qi Yun was taken aback for a moment, but he also went into the bed net, lay down beside Ye Jiao, and whispered, "Isn't Jiao Niang afraid?"

Ye Jiao leaned in comfortably, letting Qi Yun surround herself with a soft voice: "Why should I be afraid? I have never provoked him, nor have I done bad things. What are you afraid of him?"

In a word, Qi Yun was slightly taken aback, and then laughed.

Yes, what are you afraid of? You can't hide things from the left or right, and think of a way to be true.

He lowered his head and kissed Ye Jiao's forehead, Qi Yun said softly: "Well, Jiao Niang is very reasonable."

Ye Jiao murmured: "Tomorrow Hua Ning invites me to speak, and I promised her."

……tomorrow?

Qi Yun remembered that the time San Gongzi invited himself to go is also tomorrow.

It seemed that this boat had to be boarded, whether it was for Ye Jiao or for himself, Qi Yun had to go this trip.

On the other side, Chu Chengyun, who was being thought of by Qi Yun, didn't have any deliberate thoughts. He didn't know that the Seventh Princess would invite Ye Jiao, but it was just a coincidence.

It's just that Qi Yun was right about one thing, and Chu Chengyun did have the intention of telling him about major issues.

"Msang Gong, do you really value him so much?" Meng's side sat on the couch and stretched out his hand to gently help Chu Chengyun knead his shoulders.

Chu Chengyun's injury is not healed now, and it hurts if he moves a little, so he can only rest in bed.

But the body is raised, but the head can't relax.

He leaned on the cushion, looked at Meng's, and slowly said, "Sooner or later, I will let Jiro know about these things. There is a caravan covenant between me and him, so I can't fool him. If things happen in the future, he will It’s a good thing to become a royal merchant. If you say something is not good, it means that a major event will not be achieved. He naturally has to tell me early, and now he can't keep it secret."

As soon as Chu Chengyun said this, Meng's heart felt a lot relaxed.

Although Princess Huaning had already spoken out when she came this morning, Chu Chengyun had promised to return to Beijing, but Meng's heart was still worried, fearing that he might change his mind temporarily.

Now that Chu Chengyun could give Qi Yun such a calculation, at least it showed that he was determined to go back.

Feeling rested, Meng's movements on his face paused slightly, and he looked at him in a puzzled manner: "Msang-gong, I only thought that you were fond of Qi Saburo, but I didn't expect you to think about it for Qi Erlang."

Being able to help Qi Yun plan so much, and even thinking about how Qi Yun should separate his relationship with him if his own thing fails, this is already extremely concerned.

Chu Chengyun said softly: "I formed a caravan with him, not for fame and fortune, but to do something for the court. Regardless of what Erlang's original intention was, he helped me in the end. This is great kindness. Regardless of success or failure, he should be able to do this thing."

Meng Shi smiled, then kneaded his shoulders to Chu Chengyun, and said, "Miangong, you are always wrong with people, and you have a good heart. No wonder the seventh princess is close to you."

When Chu Chengyun heard the words, he curled his mouth and said with emotion in his voice: "Hua Ning came to look for me this time not only because of being close to me, but also to protect her mother and concubine's family."

Meng's stunned slightly: "What?"

Chu Chengyun did not hide her from her, and slowly said: "Hua Ning's mother and concubine is Guo Guifei, and their mother and daughter are living well now, only because Guo Guifei's brother is a general of the hussars. This allowed her to live a safe life. But my brothers all attracted courtiers, and many of them were in the army. Whoever goes up, everyone around them will have the merits of the dragon. Following the chickens and dogs, the Guo family will not have a good life. Ever."

Meng's lips tightened as soon as he said this.

Why doesn't she know this truth?

In fact, Prime Minister Meng always hoped that Chu Cheng would be allowed to fight for the seat, also to preserve the glory of the Meng clan.

It took a lot of thought for Princess Hua Ning to come out. It was probably not just for the man she liked, but she also came with the hope of the Guo family.

The two families know in their hearts that they are now first-ranked officials and cannot be promoted. If they don't plan early, when the sky really changes, there is a deep abyss.

However, their calculations were beneficial to Chu Chengyun without harm.

Meng Shi laughed again, with a little relief: "Msang Gong is smart, you can think thoroughly about this matter."

My husband is not stupid, on the contrary, he understands it very well in his heart, otherwise he won't be able to explain Hua Ning's mind with a little mention. It is better to have such a calculation than anything.

Chu Chengyun patted her hand and whispered softly: "I just want to understand. I always have to fight. If you fight, you may win. If you don't fight, you will definitely die. I was able to rely on Qi Erlang and him before. The lady has lived once, but she may not be so lucky next time."

When Meng Shi spoke, he only thought in his heart, if he hadn't let him eat up the Qianli Pond in the first place... But he didn't stop with his hands, he kneaded Chu Chengyun again.

Because of his severe injuries, he couldn't move around at will, and his body was always sore. Only by rubbing and rubbing him could he sleep well.

Meng Shi was very dedicated. She learned the technique from Li Langzhong before, and she didn't do anything about it, but she helped him massage herself every night.

Chu Chengyun was pinched comfortably, so he was sleepy. When he was half asleep and half awake, he listened to Meng's whisper: "There's another thing, sir. I look at the seventh princess and especially prefer Ye Tisha."

The man yawned, and didn't let Meng Shi take any effort to knead himself, stretched out his hand to hold Meng Shi half in his arms, and said slowly: "Well, Hua Ning has been domineering since he was a child, and he has been lawless. It’s rare that she can find the lover. Now it is Ping Rong who hasn’t recollected it. When he knows his mind in the future, Hua Ning is afraid that he will still listen to him.” Then Chu Chengyun also chuckled. That little bully also has today."

Meng's leaning on him carefully, trying not to touch the wound, muttered: "How do you think you have become smarter and smarter recently? I'm getting stupid."

There are many things that could be thought of clearly before, but now they don’t understand.

But without waiting for Chu Chengyun to speak, he listened to Meng's words again: "It's probably too affable. When I think of you, the people next to me can't think of anything."

...Hui Niang's love words are always so sudden.

Chu Chengyun, who had just found some feeling, immediately lost the appearance of just strategizing. He coughed and lowered his head to meet the smiling face of his princess.

There is bright beauty in Wen Wan, and Chu Chengyun also curled his mouth, thinking in his heart, her own Hui Niang is really smart.

There was no word for a night, and early the next morning, the carriage of the Qi family was about to leave for the mansion of the third son.

For Little Ginseng, she would not bother to think about the throne of the prince. All she can remember is that the third son is in contact with people in her family.

Now Huaning has been added, and the connection is getting deeper and deeper.

The last time I fed him the flesh of the white rainbow fruit just kept him alive, but it was not easy to raise it without leaving the root of the disease.

Before leaving, Ye Jiao dragged a leaf from the stone sprouts and waited on the carriage. She thought about it carefully, and found it a little strange for people to eat the leaves directly, so she broke the red bean cake on the carriage and pulled the inside. The red bean paste was dug out, and the leaves were crushed and wrapped in red bean paste to form a ball.

Qi Yun got in the car after a while. As soon as he got in, he saw her pinching the meatballs. He was slightly taken aback: "Jiao Niang, what are you doing?"

Ye Jiao didn't lift her head, rubbing the **** on her hands intently, and said in her mouth: "Since the third son is so important, his injury should be better soon. This can help him."

Qi Yun was a little curious: "What is this?"

"Things that are good for your body." Ye Jiao rubbed the **** and put them in the bag. Then he smiled at Qi Yun, "Don't worry, there are so many in our yard. It's nothing to give him. I tried it and it worked well. You can give it to him later."

Qi Yun didn’t ask too much. He always trusted Ye Jiao completely, and there were a lot of medicinal flowers in the yard. It’s not surprising that someone could raise his body. Since someone tried it, it’s at least harmless even if it’s useless. , Qi Yun reached out and took the brocade bag and put it in his sleeve.

He didn't notice that the red bean cake at Ye Jiao's hand was empty, but Qi Yun didn't have the chance to find out. It didn't take long for Little Ginseng to eat a plate of red bean cake into his stomach, with a contented expression on his face, annoying. Qi Yun leaned over to kiss her.

Ye Jiao was also calm, hooked his neck and kissed him back.

When they were separated, Qi Yun felt that even his mouth was full of the sweetness of red beans.

He couldn't help but count the days in his heart again, it took three months, and it should be all right.

After about half an hour, the carriage stopped in front of the Meng's medicine store.

In order to conceal his identity, Chu Chengyun opened this pharmacy under the name of Meng. They lived in the back yard, and Hua Ning also borrowed from him when he came.

Waiting at the door was Ye Pingrong and the maid beside Hua Ning.

Ye Jiao directly followed the maid to find Hua Ning, while Qi Yun got out of the car and went to find Chu Chengyun with Ye Pingrong.

Walking on the porch, Qi Yun did not mention the identities of the siblings, but asked with concern: "Big brother is healed? My family's Li Lang is good at Chinese medicine. Maybe he can show you someday. Don’t leave the root of the disease."

Ye Pingrong is close to Ye Jiao, and his attitude towards Qi Yun is softer than others. He replied: "Well, my injury has healed, brother-in-law don't worry."

"That's all right, Jiaojiao always remembers. She wanted to ask more yesterday, but she didn't say much because of the presence of nobles."

"His Royal Highness is very nice, and it doesn't matter if you get along with the Jiao Niang."

Okay, Your Highness, it seems that Jiaojiao really heard her right.

Although Qi Yun's expression was light, he knew in his heart that he was afraid that he could guess at odds and ends, and he would not be wrong.

When he got to the door, Ye Pingrong opened the door and turned sideways, Qi Yun stepped forward.

Chu Chengyun was still leaning on the bed, his body still couldn't support getting out of bed, Meng was not accompanied in the house, only Liu Rong was taking care of him.

Seeing Qi Yun coming in, Chu Chengyun smiled, and pointed to the six-sided armchair beside him: "I have inconvenience on my body and can't get up. Erlang come over and sit."

Qi Yun saw that he didn't have any intention of breaking his identity for the time being, and he didn't want to talk too much. After slightly arching his hands, he sat on the chair.

Liu Rong stood aside with Ye Pingrong, one facing the door and the other facing the window.

Chu Chengyun looked at Qi Yun. Compared with usual, he felt more close after life and death. Although his face was a little pale, he still smiled and said, "How about your injury?"

Qi Yun was not frightened by Chu Chengyun's identity. On the contrary, he remained as calm and upright as ever, but with some emotion in his voice: "It's better, but I didn't expect the third son to be injured so badly that he should take a good rest. "As he said, Qi Yun put the basket on the low table next to the couch and said, "There are some digestible minced chicken porridge, as well as light shortbread, you can use some."

Chu Chengyun nodded slightly: "Thank you, Erlang, remember."

"And this." Qi Yun took out the brocade bag from his sleeve, opened it, and inside was a black pill.

Chu Chengyun was a little curious: "What is this?"

Qi Yun's expression softened: "This is what my lady asked me to bring. It's good for my body. You might as well try it."

Chu Chengyun wouldn't eat anything like this, but Liu Rong would put it away first.

The things in the basket are easy to say, Liu Rong just stared at the black ball, his eyes trembled.

When he mentioned the second wife of the Qi family, he always thought of the way she put a handful of soil into the prince’s mouth that day...

This ball is made of mud, right?
