After rebirth, I made the princes cry

Chapter 201 New Chess Game

As the period of the Autumn Hunting was decided, the accompanying personnel were finally determined. It was natural that the courtiers could not be left behind, but not every courtier was qualified to have their family members accompany them. It was still an honor to accompany the Autumn Hunting, so the Eight Great Powers The family members of the nobles must be accompanying them, and Mrs. He, Mrs. Xie, and Mrs. Zheng, who are from the eight powerful nobles and occupy high positions in the inner court, naturally have to accompany them.

Since the three ladies all have to accompany the chariot, the queen must also be qualified to chariot. Sikong Tong feels that the queen does not need to embarrass him. There is no palace in the paddock, so he can only live in tents. Life is naturally not as comfortable as in the palace, and the queen is not in good health. He is about to fall ill in the middle of the day, and if he voluntarily stays with the prince in Jiankang, the emperor will certainly allow it.

But the queen's physical condition was confusing. She felt that she could participate in the Autumn Hunting Ceremony, and said pitifully: "I have never participated in the Autumn Hunting Ceremony. If I miss this time, I may not have the chance."

What else could Sikong Tong say? During the couple's marriage, the queen brought out all her "last wishes", how could he fail to fulfill them?

Since the prince stayed behind, he naturally had temporary control over the palace guards and some of the Beijing guards to prevent rebellion. He and the family members of some generals who stayed in the capital with the prince had "special" rights to accompany them. With such a mighty group, It takes more than half a month to drive to the paddock. Of course, it is impossible to rely on hunting for food. Sufficient food and grass must be prepared, and a lot of laborers must be recruited. The people are willing to do so-it does not mean that they have to go to the battlefield, and their lives are not in danger. , I have only been away from home for more than a month, and the court will use labor as a tax credit. Maybe I will be lucky enough to see the majesty of the king of a country with my own eyes. The lucky ones are the ones chosen.

Among the only servants chosen, Fu Qing was the only one with a sad face. He was Fu Nuzhi's father.

In the past few years, their family had attached themselves to Qiaomen, although it was in the name of a tribe, but because Qiao Ke protected each other in the uncle's manor, they were used to being domineering and domineering. They did not mention doing hard work anymore, but managed the farming by themselves. He could actually call on other minions to serve him, and lived a comfortable life where someone would peel the chestnuts for him every time he ate them. He only thought that the days would go by and he would become richer and richer, but he didn't expect that it would end suddenly. If it was Ren's He dared to go out and make a fuss to embarrass them, but it was His Highness the Fifth Highness who insulted them. How could Qiao Qing not know that even his daughter was at her wits' end? I had no choice but to pack my bags and return to my old home. I was worried about my future livelihood, and I was actually chosen as a laborer.

Fu Qing was afraid that he would never come back this time.

It is easy to enjoy the wealth that falls from the sky, but it is often difficult to take risks. However, not many people understand this truth. This is not the most terrifying thing. The scary thing is the people who half understand and do not understand. Fu Qing is such a person.

It is said that he was selected as a laborer, but it was actually a benefit given to him by the head of the village. He felt that his family had been "unemployed" for many years. Winter was about to come again, and he didn't know if there was any food left in the family. If not, the old, young, seven or eight Can a poor man still starve to death before his eyes? The chief also emphasized his good intentions, but Fu Qing thought that he was a man who had seen the world and could not trust the kindness of others. The more he tasted, the more conspiratorial it became, and he scared himself half to death.

He thought of the word "escape".

Neither Qiao Shizi nor his wife were mean people, and they did not withhold the money that Fu Qing's family had "illegally gained" over the years. Although these properties were not enough to support them in pampering for the rest of their lives, it stands to reason that they would still be able to afford to leave Jiankang and live somewhere else. , and even have the capital left to start a small business, but Fu Qing, the head of the family, has no business acumen in the first place, and since he has been selected as a slave this time, if he does not serve in the stock market, he will naturally not be able to do it through formal channels. If you want to go through a temporary residence at the government office, you have to find a way to go through a temporary residence. This is the most difficult thing to do under the emperor. Not only does it involve higher risks, but it also costs the most money. Fu Qingren has not left Jiankang City yet. At this point, half of the savings have been spent.

And his sons still don't agree with their father's decision - originally, not all men from the family are involved in the handyman job this time, so they don't have to serve, but if something goes wrong during the "escape", they will be caught in one fell swoop. , the whole family will suffer a disaster, not to mention changing to a place where they are unfamiliar, not having enough money, and having to worry about being caught by the government. How miserable are those days? ——The sons did not dare to raise objections in person, so they instigated their daughters-in-law to go to their mothers and complain.

On this day, Fu Qing was really irritated by his old wife's chatter. He raised his leg with a slap in the face. Still not relieved, he threw a bundle of old clothes that had been put away without "liberation" at all, and threw it at the fallen old wife. , roared out those vulgar and obscene words, regardless of whether he himself was scolded, he lost his temper, and finally felt that he still needs such "power" to be considered a human being. days.

When Fu Qing's curses finally became "muffled", the man who had been standing outside the door for a while clapped his hands twice and sneered: "Old man Fu is really full of energy. This roar will bring down the whole street." Everyone heard it.”

Fu Qing turned around and saw that it was a stranger. He was about to raise his Dantian Qi again and scold this "idle rogue" for trespassing into people's houses. Finally, he saw clearly that although the man had an ordinary face, he was not wearing the same clothes. But he was not ordinary, definitely not a neighbor who lived in this lane. If his robe were pawned, it would be enough for a family of seven or eight people to eat flower steamed cakes every meal for twenty days.

The anger just swallowed back.

"May I ask how you call the young master?"

"I don't dare to call you young master, and don't bother with my name, old man. I have a few words to tell you." The man crossed his arms and glanced sideways at the women who poked their heads in the doors of the other two rooms: "Old man's family members Duo, let’s do this, I will be the host today and treat the old man to a drink.”

Fu Qing was frightened at this moment. Even though he had the desire to climb higher, he really didn't have the courage. When he hesitated, the man said again: "I know the deal between the old man and Ghost Face Biao. If the old man doesn't drink this drink, he will suffer the consequences." The old man is on his own."

Gu Lian Biao was the person who provided Fu Qing with a false place of residence. He used a pseudonym. No one knew his real name. Fu Qing had never met Gu Lian Biao. He was only qualified to interact with Gu Lian Biao's younger brother. This was all circumvented. There are many ways - in short, Ghost Face Biao dared to forge a talisman at the emperor's feet. This criminal gang is different from ordinary local gangsters. People who know that Fu Qing has already connected with Ghost Face Biao are definitely not ordinary people.

Fu Qing had no choice but to drink the wine with trepidation.

Restaurants and wine shops are the only shops that can be opened outside the market. However, like the neighborhood where Fu Qing lives, there are no mansions of dignitaries. When you walk out of the neighborhood and onto Fang Street, there are only a few scattered along the street. In a restaurant, the man in silk robe did not mind that the restaurant environment was shabby. He ordered wine and meat and paid first. Before the wine and meat were served on the table, he started talking about the topic: "I also obey orders. My master knows that the old man The daughter is in the palace, and she is very valued by Concubine Qiao. Of course, she also knows that the old man has not been going well recently and has lost his shelter. The old man's worry is actually unnecessary. The prince of Pingyi County was not even willing to turn against Pingyi Bo. Even more so, he won’t be unyielding to the old man.

Old man, just go to serve with peace of mind. Your safety is naturally guaranteed by my master. Only by staying in Jiankang City can you enjoy a beautiful and comfortable life in the future. "

After finishing speaking, the man left, leaving all the food and wine to Fu Qing for his own enjoyment. After Fu Qing had eaten and drank enough, he immediately gave up the idea of ​​​​escape - if that was Prince Qiao's person, why bother to persuade him to serve? When they leave the city with their excuses, they can just report them - they are not Prince Qiao's people, but they are also dignitaries, and there is no need to punish little people like them.

Nanci also paid attention to Fu Qing's family's preparations to escape. However, Fu Qing gave up the idea of ​​​​escape after having a drink with a mysterious man. He actually didn't even care about paying the deposit to Ghost Face Biao. Preparing to serve will naturally attract more attention from Nanci.

Yingshu now enjoys a great degree of freedom in the Jiankang Palace. Several female historians, including Zi Shi, have actually been able to take charge of their own affairs through Yingshu's cultivation and their own efforts. Yingshu, the middle female historian There is no need to keep an eye on Qianyang Palace all the time, but she has not neglected her duties. She does not like to wander around in the palace. If it is not an important matter, she will not use the golden order given by the emperor to leave the palace without permission. She and Nan There was a tacit understanding between the two - as long as Nanci sent his mother-in-law to deliver snacks to her residence, there was something to discuss.

Today, the peach slice cake was delivered.

Yingshu took the time to go to Guisu Mansion. Unfortunately, the seventh prince happened to come to visit. Nanci couldn't get away for the time being, so Yingshu chatted with Danying for a while, and Danying was in a hurry to go get Sang Luoxin. The wine that was delivered: "Sang Luo brewed it himself and sent several jars. His Highness also knew that it was wine that Sang Luo gave to the young master. He asked the slave to keep it."

"Don't go get it now." Yingshu said with a smile: "Autumn hunting is around the corner, and there are a lot of things that need to be prepared. I have to go back to Qianyang Palace to do some homework. Drinking will make things worse. Why don't you remind Nanci, Let me take these jars of wine with me to the paddock. I will definitely be able to find some free time at that time. In the mountains and fields, drinking wine and eating meat around a bonfire is the most interesting thing."

In her previous life, Yingshu never accompanied Pei Yu to the paddock - Pei Yu had not yet become an official and was not qualified to accompany him. Although Penglai Jun wanted to take her to the paddock, he felt that she and Pei Yu were newlyweds after all, which would enhance the relationship between the couple. At a critical stage, and her parents didn't know how to drive with her, she simply asked Pei Yu to accompany her back to her parents' home for a while - Yingshu "lost" the opportunity to hunt and drink in the mountains. This time, It’s a good time for her to become a Chinese girl in history.

After pulling Danying to sit down again, Yingshu asked, "What news can Yingsong bring in recently?"

Dan Ying hurriedly reported: "Since Lord Xinsu returned to the capital, Si Niang has only been to Yongfu Province once. In the past two days, the Fourth Highness went to inspect the military camp. Si Niang must have known about it. She wanted to take advantage of the fact that His Highness was not in Xinsu Mansion. When he went to see Baoqin, he was blocked outside the door. The next day, Yingsong came in again to inquire about the news. Yingsong said that the guard of Xinsu Mansion only told Siniang that Mrs. Baoqin was no longer in Taicheng and refused. Si Niang was very anxious when talking about the whereabouts of Lady Baoqin, thinking that Yingsong had really established a good relationship with the guards and palace officials of Vinh Phuc Province, so she asked Yingsong to try his best to find out."

Yingshu secretly thought: Although Yingsong is also a reborn person, she should have never paid attention to Tian. Even if she heard that Tian was killed by Liang in her previous life, she would not have known that this incident was related to Sikong Beichen. Logically speaking, Pei Mrs. Liu shouldn't know about it, but Mrs. Pei Liu must have known that Tian was originally taking orders from the second prince, and that Tian's death was the trigger for Sikong Yuehu and Liang's couple to turn against each other.

The second prince's bid for the throne failed. At that time, he had been exiled to the state and county. He had lost the ability to protect himself and could no longer control the Tian family. Therefore, Tian's death should have nothing to do with Sikong Yuewu, but as soon as Tian died, For Sikong Yuewu's party camp, it has completely lost its use. But the current situation is that Liang will no longer be the concubine of the heart, and Tian will not die from Liang's jealousy. This chess piece is in Pei's hands. It looks like Liu will be able to continue to be effective.

But the strange thing is, why didn't Mrs. Pei Liu come forward and only instigated Wang Qing'e to make friends with Mr. Tian?
