Time-traveling Bastards Are Politics

Chapter 351 Xia Qingmu

"Master, Lord Jingmo. I have made some pastries, please try them."

"Why are they all heavy oil and sugar snacks?"

"I can't buy other ingredients, so I can only buy these, so I just made some. The peach blossom soup here is refreshing and delicious. If you don't want to eat snacks, drinking some peach blossom soup can be regarded as moisturizing your throat."

"I didn't expect this girl's craftsmanship to be good, and she did a decent job."

"Lan'er's craftsmanship is not only good? The best dim sum shop in the capital is not as delicious as her."

"Thanks for the prize, but it's just doing it casually."

"Well, it's really well done. When I went to see Ruijue, I couldn't get enough of the cakes in the capital. Compared with them now, it seems that this girl's cooking is more delicious, sweet but not greasy."

"Where did Girl Lan get her pastry-making skills? It doesn't seem to follow the rules."

"She was abducted and trained by the organization at a very young age. She may have been trained on purpose, and she also has some foreign tastes."

"Well, I think the seasoning method is not like the locals. Although it is a flower dessert, it has a fruity fragrance, which is light and not greasy. It doesn't cover up the fragrance of the flowers. It seems that a lot of effort has been made."

"Master Miao Zan, these little tricks can't be fooled by the master's insight. This is Hanxiang tea, everyone try it."

"The tea is not as cold as before."

"Senior Sister Muxiang helped to improve it, and said that it is not good to be too cold."

"It's not good to be too cold, too cold is bad for Feng Yong, right?"

Thinking of this, Feng Yong felt even more that this approach might really be someone from Qingyin Pavilion, but Guangbai and Mu Xiang also came over, is it necessary for Qingyin Pavilion to send someone over?
Just as Feng Yong was about to say something, Feng Langjiu came in: "My lord, my princess, Fang Yixie, the minister of the Ministry of War, Mr. Fang came to visit, and said that he brought a roster for the emperor, and congratulated the princess and the lord on their upcoming wedding."

"Understood, the king and the princess will go right away, let Master Fang wait in the study." Feng Yong said with a smile.

Feng Yong and Bai Lan wiped their mouths, tidied up, and went to the study.

Fang Yixie brought a bunch of bags and waited in the study, followed by a few servant girls.

Seeing Feng Yong and Bai Lan approaching, he hurriedly saluted: "My lord, my princess. I happen to be sending congratulatory gifts to the lord and the princess. When the emperor asks the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send a list of beautiful women for female officials, I will do it for you."

"Master Fang, you are too polite. You are busy with business. Why should your lord make such a special trip? Just ask someone to send it over. Neither lord Fang nor the Ministry of Internal Affairs are like me. I'm just an idler. How can my lord disturb my lord's business?" Feng Yong said with a smile.

Fang Yixie shook his head: "Look at what the prince said, are you polite? If an ordinary person is getting married, then the official will definitely send someone to send gifts. But when the prince and the princess are getting married, how can they not send them in person? Besides, Back then, when I was on official duty, I was offended a lot, and today I also came to apologize to the prince and the princess."

"Look at what Mr. Fang said. You are being polite, but you still say that the king is being polite. Mr. Fang also said that at that time, he was on official business, so how could the king care about it? Besides, at that time, my lord, he never treated me harshly with me. Princess, what is the crime? Why do you need to apologize?" Feng Yong said with a smile: "You all go down, this king will talk to Mr. Fang."

When Fang Yixie heard Feng Yong's appearance, he also said calmly: "You all go out, Qingmu can just stay and serve."

After everyone went out and closed the door, the maid named Qingmu stood by the door and listened carefully, then nodded to Fang Yixie.

At this time, Fang Yixie said: "Your Highness, Princess, I have something to ask you."

"Mr. Fang, what are you talking about? We are all on our own. Why are you being so polite? If there is anything this king can do, or the princess can help, you just say it's okay, and we won't say anything." Feng Yong Said with a frown.

When Fang Yixie heard what Feng Yong said, he turned his head and said to Qingmu calmly: "Qingmu, just take it off."

At this time, the servant girl named Qingmu wiped off the thick powder on her face, washed her face with the water basin in the house, and after drying it, she walked up to Feng Yong: "The girl Xia Qingmu has seen the prince. ,Princess."

Feng Yong and Bai Lan took a closer look, and were immediately stunned: "This... what's going on?"

"My lord, it's just what you imagined. The Xia Qinghe in the palace is Xia Qingmu. The Xia Qingmu in front of me is the real Xia Qinghe..." Fang Yixie said, frowning.

Feng Yong was even more surprised: "Then... this... Then I joked at that time that the first summer is still peaceful and the grass has not stopped. Is it true?"

"Yes, what you said is true. When you said it, I was also shocked, but after thinking about it, the prince couldn't know anything, so he didn't say anything." Fang Yixie shook his head helplessly: "Qingmu, what is it specifically? Please explain the situation to the prince."

Qingmu nodded: "Qingmu and Qinghe are half-sisters at first, but because Qingmu's mother is madam's dowry maid, and madam's health is not good, the prince has always obeyed madam and never gave Qing Mu's mother's name, in the mansion, was only called Qingmu, never mentioning her surname. At that time, the emperor had just ascended the throne, and although the previous court needed to rely on his father's disciples, the emperor was suspicious by nature, and he was afraid that his father would be punished because of this. Gao Gaizhu, therefore, proposed that the harem was short of personnel and wanted his father to be in charge of the draft.

But my father has been a scholar all his life, Ge Lao is just a false name, and his whole life is dedicated to teaching and educating people. How do you know about the draft?Later, after being raised by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, I found out that the emperor just wanted to let Qinghe enter the palace so that he could restrain his father.But just as the prince guessed, Qinghe had a marriage contract with Mr. Fang when he was a child, and his father was not a person who broke his promise.Besides, my father also saw that marrying into the palace was not a good way out.

When her father was in a dilemma, Qingmu took the initiative to ask Ying, willing to replace Qinghe and enter the palace, so she got the unexplainable concubine Feng.But after Qingmu entered the palace, Qinghe became Qingmu, the two of them were still slightly different, in order to prevent people from discovering, they sent me to Master Fang to be Qingmu.

Until Master Fang came back at that time and told me that the prince asked him that the first summer was still peaceful and the grass had not stopped, I knew it, and the prince guessed it.I also know that the prince is not the kind of courtier who flatters and flatters. He would not tell the truth after learning about our real situation, so he called Mr. Fang and came over to explain the situation to the prince and the princess.

Just like what the prince said, everyone is on their own now, so don't cover up what's going on, just say it directly. "

Feng Yong nodded: "Since that's the case, why are you talking about this matter now?"

"My lord, because Qingmu's identity may be lost, I have to explain to the lord in advance. Qingmu's entry into the palace is entirely for the sake of his father, so what he does may sometimes be inappropriate. I hope the lord will not blame him. Moreover, I hope that the prince can help Qingmu if he can. Although Qingmu and Qinghe are similar in appearance, when Qingmu was young, he learned less piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and many things were taught temporarily, so it was inevitable. It will reveal flaws. I hope the lord can help to find a way to cover up the past, Xiafu will be grateful." Qingmu said with a frown.

Feng Yong said helplessly: "If the emperor was careful, he would have discovered it a long time ago, but the emperor doesn't care at all, or doesn't want to talk about it, do you understand? The emperor sees that Mr. Xia Ge is also very nervous, and he is also very careful with the noble concubine, so, no Besides, the emperor doesn't care if this person is really Xia Qinghe. If it's real Xia Qinghe, he can restrain Mr. Xia Ge. If it's not real Xia Qinghe, it's a serious crime to enter the palace as a beautiful woman. You don't have to worry about it because you want to restrain Elder Xia Ge."

"With the prince's words, I feel more at ease. If the emperor doesn't want to pursue it, then I will be Xia Qingmu from now on, and it doesn't matter." Qingmu said with a smile.

Feng Yong smiled: "It doesn't matter, it's just that there is a problem with your identity. You have a marriage contract with Mr. Fang. You are like this now, but you are just a maid. Tell me, is it possible for Mr. Fang to marry you in the future? If it passes Age, the emperor forced the marriage, you have nothing to do. Moreover, no matter what time you are, you can't offend the emperor. Now you are struggling, like walking on thin ice. Besides, there are so many things that the king can guess. People, can't you find out? Even if your identity is fake, but your relationship is real, can you really tolerate it, and become a concubine in the future?"

"My lord, I have thought about this question. To be honest, the concubine's room and the main room are nothing more than the difference in status. If Mr. Fang has no intention of marrying, I will be a maid for the rest of my life, and that is not as good as the concubine's room. The prince also said, The identity is fake, but the relationship is real. If the relationship between Mrs. Fang and his wife can surpass that between us, then I am not as skilled as others, and I have nothing to say. When Qingmu entered the palace, she had already If it's Qinghe, I can only be Qingmu. Qingmu has swallowed her anger in the Xia Mansion for so many years, it's my duty to give her back and give her a better life." Qingmu smiled wryly.

Feng Yong nodded: "You can see clearly, that's naturally the best. But you don't have to be so slack, this draft, the emperor also intends to propose marriages for the courtiers in the court, when the time comes, maybe Master Fang will also be there Lie, you should make preparations earlier and don't underestimate the enemy. According to this king, if you give marriages to your subjects this time, maybe it will be done according to the power at that time. In the eyes of the emperor, which side is Mr. Fang on? You can see it clearly.”

"My lord, at that time, the lower official had already said that the mother had a marriage with her fingertips, and the emperor would give her a marriage? Isn't this making the lower official a dishonest person?" Fang Yixie said hastily.

Feng Yong shook her head: "You are wrong, how many people have three wives and four concubines now? Besides, if the emperor really bestowed marriage, would you dare to say no? The emperor already knew that the person you are referring to as marriage is Xia Qinghe, why didn't he propose a marriage for you? Also, this marriage is not concerned with the lifelong affairs of your subjects at all, but to let your various forces check each other. For example, if you married the daughter of your opponent, wouldn't that be Do you want to install an eyeliner at home? At this time, you have only two choices, that is peace, and mutual containment. This is a good result for the emperor. As for whether you are a harmonious husband and wife, I will give you ten guts. Don't dare to joke about the marriage bestowed by the emperor."

"My lord... this matter... what should I do about this matter? I only have her in my heart, and she only has me in my heart. How can I marry someone else? Besides, if I choose someone to come back and make her suffer, isn't that right?" Are you ashamed of your trust in Mr. Xia Ge?" Fang Yixie made it even more difficult.

Feng Yong suddenly had an idea, and smiled: "This king has a proposal, I wonder if Master Fang and Miss Xia are willing."

"Your Highness has any suggestions, but it's okay to say." Fang Yixie said hastily.

Feng Yong smiled: "The female officials in the palace also have the authority to marry, but there is one person who can definitely let you two have no scruples."

"who is it?"

"who is it?"

Feng Yong said with a smile: "Lu Ying! Lu Ying was originally Luo Qing's fiancée, but this time she made it to the draft list because of a complete failure. Later, the emperor approved her to be a female officer. She and your identities can be regarded as a match. , if you marry Lu Ying, Lu Ying only has a little prince in her heart, so she is willing to help you all. In addition, with a married status and the status of a palace lady, the emperor will let go of his guard against Lu Ying, so , it is easier for Lu Ying to do things in the palace, and you are also happy, isn't it great?"

"But... as the prince said, is Miss Lu really willing?" Fang Yixie was a little embarrassed.

Feng Yong smiled: "Naturally, this matter needs to be discussed, but you must know that Lu Ying has never let go of Luo Qing in her heart for a moment. For this kind of person, if she agrees, you have to restrain yourself. If you want the emperor to let go Be wary, in this way, you will be able to play a full set. Later, the emperor will not care about what you take a concubine for."

"If this matter can really be done, it will be a good thing, but I'm afraid Miss Lu Ying won't want it. Also, if the female official gets married, she will have to go back to the mansion every day. Will it affect Miss Lu? Miss Lu Keeping the festival for the little prince, but the lower government is full of the emperor's eyeliner, if they are separated, they are afraid of being noticed by the emperor, but if they are too close, they feel that Miss Lu's reputation has been tarnished." Fang Yixie was still moaning.

Feng Yong shook her head helplessly: "You are just stupid, have you ever thought about it? Female officials can be married, if the emperor is not at ease, then he will match Lu Ying with someone, or directly accept her as a concubine. At that time, Lu Ying will be I really can't keep the chastity. The king thought, instead of letting Miss Lu Ying marry anyone casually, wouldn't it be better to marry someone who knows the basics? Besides, Miss Lu Ying is not unreasonable, and so is the king who stands side by side with every word. With a warm heart, even if they don't know about your situation, they will do it for the sake of the Lu family. What concerns do you have? If you wait until the draft, I'm afraid it will be out of control."
