Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country

"I heard that the newly appointed Minister of War comes from a humble family, is not afraid of power, and disdains the solicitations of you, the Crown Prince, and the Second Prince."

The Crown Prince and the Second Prince had been fighting for the position of Vice Minister of the Ministry of War for a very long time. Whenever an official was about to take office, he would be bitten down by the other party.

The chaos lasted for a long time, and finally Emperor Ming ran out of patience, so he sent a minor official who had just arrived in Beijing to serve as the Minister of War.

The Crown Prince and the Second Prince immediately went to win him over, but found that this person was unmoved and could not be won over at all.

They were ready to bite this man off as they had done before, but they found that he had been in office for a short time and had no bad record. He was really a stone in the toilet, smelly and hard.

Nan Rongjing took a sip of tea and continued.

"I heard that he was from Baiyan, Yanzhou, but in a recent case of privately minting copper coins, I unexpectedly discovered that this minister was actually from Songshan County."

Songshan County is very small, bordering Northern Liao and close to Baiyan. Many government affairs in the county are under the jurisdiction of the Baiyan prefect. If the assistant minister insists that he is from Baiyan, he cannot be accused of lying.

However, Songshan County is a special place.

A few years ago, the prince was seriously ill and urgently needed a special medicinal herb to prolong his life. However, there was heavy snow in Yanzhou that year, and the team going into the mountains to collect herbs could not get through at all.

Nan Huaishuo took the initiative to offer to lead the group to collect herbs, so he set out from the capital with more than 30 guards. On the way back, they encountered heavy snow in Songshan County and were trapped for seven days and seven nights. When they escaped, there were only a dozen people left with him.

Nan Huaishuo also fell ill in that heavy snow and spent half a month in Songshan County before he recovered.

The prince obviously thought of this old incident. If the assistant minister of the Ministry of War had frankly said that he was from Songshan County, the prince would not have thought too much about it.

But why would he hide it?

Seeing that the prince looked unhappy, Nan Rongjing turned around and ignored him, with only a hint of interest on his lips.

"Your Highness, the Prince of Jin."

A coquettish voice sounded behind Nan Rongjing. Nan Rongjing's smile disappeared instantly and he became inexplicably irritated.

Today was the first time Hu Ruzhen went out since the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet. She saw Nan Rongjing drinking tea alone from afar and was stunned.

His handsome and upright figure is like a pine or cypress, he is dressed in a moon-white suit with a crimson brocade robe woven with auspicious clouds woven in gold, his black hair hangs down his shoulders, and he is tied up with a jade crown. His face is as cold as if carved by a knife or an axe. He is the man of the dreams of countless ladies in the capital.

Even though he restrained his aura at the palace banquet, he could not hide the cold and murderous aura around him.

Hu Ruzhen seemed to be possessed and walked behind Nan Rongjing unknowingly.

When he saw it was her, Nan Rongjing didn't even bother to raise his eyebrows, "What's the matter?"

"I made a mistake during the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, and today I am here to apologize to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Oh, you didn't cause me to have an emergency, and you didn't frame me, so why are you asking me for forgiveness?"

Hu Ruzhen's face flushed instantly. She felt extremely embarrassed as the person she loved exposed the filth in her heart.

"I'd like to trouble you to find out the truth and help me return to the right path..."

Nan Rongjing interrupted her impatiently, "If you want to apologize, go apologize to Princess Shuyi. I don't have time to listen."

Hu Ruzhen's eyes were red, and she bit her lip and looked at Nan Rongjing aggrievedly.

Princess Shuyi!

This Lin Yushu who stepped on her to become the county lord is her again. Could it be that Nan Rongjing really likes her?

Otherwise, why would he talk about her every other sentence?

"I understand."

Hu Ruzhen said in a tearful voice, bowed awkwardly, and walked towards Lin Yushu.

The moment she left Nan Rongjing, all of Hu Ruzhen's tenderness disappeared, and a cold murderous intent appeared in her eyes.

Lin Yushu was extremely annoyed, but Nan Huaishuo seemed not to be able to hear her rejection and kept finding topics to chat with her.

It was not until Nan Shuning asked for help that they finally got rid of him.

In her previous life, Lin Yushu quickly fell for Nan Huaishuo's gentle embrace. She had never expected that Nan Huaishuo was so persistent that most people would not be able to resist him.

Just when she was about to take a breath, a person came out from the side and almost bumped into her.

"Isn't this Princess Shuyi? Your charm has greatly increased, and you have seduced all the princes to revolve around you!"

Hu Ruzhen's voice was not low, and several ladies and young ladies around looked over, with expressions as if they were looking forward to a good show.

Lin Yushu, who was so tired that she just wanted to sit down and rest in the previous second, immediately entered a state of preparation in the next second.

He looked at Hu Ruzhen with sharp eyes and couldn't stop sneering.

"I remember that His Majesty punished Miss Hu to copy the Rules for Women, Training and Precepts for Women 900 times. How come she finished it so quickly? It seems that the effect of copying is not very good. She didn't even show courtesy when she saw the county lady. Or does the Hu family look down on me, the county lady appointed by His Majesty personally?"

Lin Yushu suddenly mentioned that she had been punished. Hu Ruzhen was filled with hatred. She dared to disrespect Lin Yushu, but she did not dare to be disrespectful to Emperor Ming.

He reluctantly bowed to Lin Yushu, lowering his voice so that only Lin Yushu in front of him could hear it.

"Don't be so proud. You will cry sooner or later."

After saying these harsh words, Hu Ruzhen left in a hurry again.

Lin Yushu looked at her back and fell into deep thought. It seemed that the Second Prince had asked Hu Ruzhen to deal with her.

Then she won’t be afraid.

If the Second Prince and Concubine Hu took action, she would still be a little worried, but this Hu Ruzhen was just a weakling and there was nothing to be afraid of.

Emperor Ming, the Empress Dowager and the Empress finally arrived. Everyone shouted "Long live the Emperor" three times and kowtowed in obeisance.

Emperor Ming said a few auspicious words and the palace banquet officially began.

Delicious dishes were served like water, and the dancers and musicians performed with all their skill. In a short while, the hall was filled with the aroma of food and the wonderful sonata of music and singing and dancing.

"In the border battle at Xiangyuan Mountain, our Great Zhou won a great victory, thanks to General Lin Mingyue's unparalleled bravery and Madam Lin's good parenting. I offer a toast to you."

The old lady immediately picked up the wine glass respectfully and drank with Emperor Ming from a distance.

It is a great honor to be toasted by the emperor.

The old lady's face was flushed and she smiled so hard that her teeth were showing, but she felt a lot of regrets in her heart.

The battle is almost over, and Lin Mingyue is still alive. It seems that the second branch can only drink the soup but not eat the meat of this great military achievement.

However, when Lin Mingyue and his son return, we must make good use of them.

The old lady's eyes sparkled.

Halfway through the banquet, the Queen Mother waved to Princess Pingyang.

Pingyang *** walked over and spoke a few words to the empress dowager beside her, looking up at Lin Yushu from time to time.

Lin Yushu felt something, and sure enough, a moment later, Pingyang *** sent someone to call her over.

"Your humble servant greets the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother be blessed with good fortune and peace."

Lin Yushu knelt down and bowed respectfully to the Queen Mother.

"What a sensible and good child! Come here and let me take a look. You are so beautiful, gentle, and good at medicine. You are really a wonderful person."

Pingyang *** quickly replied, "Yes, Shu Ning is very close to her, and now Shu Er is almost like a half-daughter to me."

"Okay, okay, I like this child, is he married?"

Lin Yushu lowered her head shyly, "Not married yet."

"Don't worry. Your father and brother have done a great deed this time. There will be people coming to your house to propose marriage. Just take your time to choose."

As she spoke, she pulled out a ruby ​​hairpin with a pattern of a red-gold phoenix dancing in the sky. In the harem, only the empress dowager and the queen had complete phoenix patterns on their jewelry and palace dresses.

This hairpin is not only a whole phoenix, but also has extremely exquisite workmanship.

Every feather of the flying phoenix is ​​lifelike, and its body is inlaid with ninety-nine and eighty-one finest rubies of various sizes, which sparkle brightly under the candlelight.

"You saved my life last time, and I haven't thanked you yet. This hairpin has been with me for decades, and now I give it to you."

This is too expensive!
