There's A Beauty

Chapter 14 4

Before the two of them could sit in their chairs, an eunuch came outside to announce the decree, ordering the third son of the emperor to enter the palace immediately to have an audience.Ji Changye hadn't left the palace to build a mansion when he was exiled back then, so he hasn't received any prince or title until now, and he has the lowest status among all the princes.Being able to return to Beijing this time is also the result of a multi-party game.

Today, the prince is on the fourth line, and the birth mother Xiao Guifei is the most beloved woman of the sage. For her, she did not hesitate to kill the queen, exiled the legitimate son, and insisted on making the fourth son the heir apparent amid the objections of the courtiers.This mother and son can be said to be the most beautiful existence in the harem and the former dynasty.However, the Empress Dowager Yuan is gone, but the Empress Dowager is still alive and well, and her mother's home, Duke Xiao's Mansion, is also a major force in the court.In order to protect the interests of the family, the queen mother forced the emperor to accept her niece and daughter into the palace and make her the imperial concubine Cheng. The seventh prince, the son of imperial concubine Cheng, just reached the weak crown this year. According to the ancestor's rules, he should lead his family to leave the capital and go to his fiefdom.

This time Ji Changye was able to return to Shangjing smoothly, the problem lies in this fief.In today's Ming Dynasty, there are only two fiefdoms left for the Seventh Prince to choose from, and the rest of the land is already owned.One is Jingzhou, which is located in the northwest inland, surrounded by various barbarians, and wars occur from time to time, which is not only extremely barren, but also very dangerous; the other is Huzhou, which is one of the richest state capitals of the Ming Dynasty.In order to take care of the Seventh Prince, the Empress Dowager naturally wanted him to go here, but the Crown Prince and Concubine Xiao were not happy.

Huzhou is an important channel for water transportation, and the land is very fertile. The annual tax can reach half of the national treasury. The Seventh Prince went there, and with a little trickery, he can save a lot of money. Wouldn't it be difficult to recruit troops in the future?This is a huge threat to the crown prince, and since Xiao Guogong's mansion is so powerful, there are already signs of meddling in the position of prince.This Huzhou can be given to anyone, but it cannot be given to the Seventh Prince.

The prince and Concubine Xiao were deeply disturbed, and repeatedly lobbied in front of the emperor, trying to get him to send the seventh prince to Jingzhou.The queen mother was furious when she heard the news, and then she remembered that there was still a prince in the dynasty who did not have a fiefdom, and that was Ji Changye. So when her son came to discuss with her, she pointed her finger on the map and said firmly, "This Jingzhou will be given to you." The third child. He is the son of the legitimate son, and he has grown up, so he should have been sealed long ago."

The emperor immediately denied, "That wicked son violated human relations, messed up the rules and regulations, and made an unforgivable big mistake. It is really lenient and kind that I didn't demote him to a commoner. How can I give him a fief again?"

The Empress Dowager sneered when she heard the words, "It violates human relations and messes up the norms. It's fine for the emperor to use these words to deceive others. There is no need to play tricks in front of Aijia. Aijia knows very well who is really violating human relations. Aijia Before, you could keep your eyes open and close your eyes, but now that you have bullied Aijia’s Xiao Qi, Aijia can’t bear it.” After taking a sip of hot tea, he said in a soft tone, “Is the third child your illegitimate son after all? , ten years of practice with hair is enough for him to change his mind, if you can call him back and seal him, the world will praise you as a kind and benevolent person."

The emperor already had a guilty conscience, and he was quite afraid of the queen mother, so he said embarrassingly, "Wait for me to think about it." Finally, he flung his sleeves and left.

The Empress Dowager was afraid that things would change, so she instructed Xiao Guogong and other ministers to put pressure on the emperor to set up the fief as soon as possible.Although the emperor didn't want to give Huzhou to the seventh child, he was even more unwilling to let the third child have the capital to turn around. The lesser of two evils, he had to choose to compromise.

So an imperial edict was sent to Kaiyuan Temple in Liangzhou, and Ji Changye had already guessed what the emperor would say to him when he returned to Beijing.Being able to get the fief and the prince did not touch him at all. These are what he deserved, and it was within his calculations.The only thing that gave him a headache was that Youshu's little tail was so clingy that she even had to follow her into the palace.

"You stay in the mansion obediently, and I will ask Ah Er to buy you a crispy duck. I remember that the Fuji Crispy Duck in Shuijing Lane, South Street is the best in Beijing. The crispy, salty and fresh taste is still amazing after ten years. I have endless aftertaste. Don't you want to taste it?" He patted the top of the boy's hair helplessly.

How could Youshu dare to take a step away from the young man, without saying a word, she just hugged the young man's thin waist tightly and buried her face in his arms.This kind of koala hug is the most secure, once it sticks, even if Ah Da and Ah Er fight together, they can't tear him apart.Ji Changye couldn't see his expression, so he could only stroke his smooth hair and tug at his jade white ears.

Youshu was unmoved, but hugged her even tighter, wishing she could get right into the young man's body.If this dragon energy can be used by him, why is he here?The past ten years have been really hard, sleeping, eating, reading, and even going to the bathroom, he has to follow Ji Changye inseparably, even if Ji Changye's staff came to report, he insisted on staying in the study and refused to leave.Fortunately, he was young, and others didn't take him seriously. When he grew up, the friendship that accompanied him day and night naturally dispelled Ji Changye's defenses, and he lived peacefully until now.

Now back in Shangjing, Youshu understands that if she can't find a way to use the dragon energy, she will die sooner or later.The current Ji Changye is no longer the down-and-out prince, but a decent county king or even a prince with a fief.He always has a lot of business to do, and he always goes to places he can't go, such as now, such as going to court.

Thinking of this, Youshu tightened her arms even more, rubbing her small face back and forth in the young man's arms, coquettishly unconsciously.

Ji Changye had nothing to do with such a young man.After all, this is the child he raised with his own hands. He hugged him to sleep at night, read with his arms around him during the day, provided food for him when he was hungry, and bought clothes for him when he was cold... Year after month, night and night, they almost Never separated for a moment.When he arrived in the capital, he was suddenly separated from him. It was quite normal for him to have such a reaction.

Thinking of this, Ji Changye's heart softened, he gently kneaded the boy's round earlobe, and sighed, "Forget it, you can come with me if you want, you have to change your clothes. Not just anyone can enter the palace."

As soon as Youshu heard this, she immediately got out of the young man's arms, and said while undressing, "I'll change right away, you wait for me."

Ji Changye winked at Ambassador Ah, who held back a smile and brought a set of vermilion eunuch uniforms.The two wanted to admire Youshu's embarrassed expression, but they couldn't do so. Because Youshu was a bumpkin who had never seen the world, he couldn't recognize the origin of the clothes at all.He changed his clothes in twos and twos, wrapped two pieces of mung bean cakes in oiled paper, stuffed them into his sleeve pockets, and said in a hurry, "Okay, let's go?"

The young man has reached fifteen years old, and his young and immature facial features are slowly growing. His skin is white, his lips are pink, his eyebrows are light, and his black and white eyes are full of aura. Wearing eunuch clothes does not look wretched at all, on the contrary, he looks a little The vitality of fresh clothes and angry horses.

Ji Changye pinched the young man's jaw and took a closer look, then teased, "My family's Youshu has indeed grown into a beauty. If she were older, she might fascinate the ladies in Beijing." She frowned, and said, "This little appearance with red lips and white teeth is too attractive, I'm afraid it will cause trouble. Youshu, after entering the palace, just keep your head down and follow me, don't talk, let alone run around."

Youshu immediately lowered her head and obediently agreed.

The two entered the palace and waited for half an hour in front of the Hall of Mental Cultivation before being summoned by the emperor.It was midsummer at this time, and the sun was scorching hot outside, scalding the air to the point of distorting.Although Youshu's past ten years have not been very smooth, she hasn't suffered much. She was almost burnt into charcoal for a while.He raised his eyes and looked forward, and saw the young man made a soothing backhand, and then suppressed his restlessness.

The father and son hadn't seen each other for twenty years, and they had just returned home. They didn't care for a single word, but instead gave them two insults one after another. No matter how slow Youshu was, she could sense the emperor's indifferent attitude towards the youth.Calling indifference is too slight, it should be called disgust.

The same is the end of the world!Thinking of her father who regarded herself as a debt collector, Youshu sighed silently.

At this moment, someone summoned from the hall, and Ji Changye looked back at Youshu, and told him to wait where he was with his mouth.

This is the Forbidden Palace, and the person the young man meets is the current emperor, and the dragon aura on his body should also be very strong.When the two streams of dragon energy gather together, it is the most rampant ghost in the world, and it is afraid that they will not dare to get close.Thinking of this, Youshu felt relieved, her pupils slowly emptied, and she began to cultivate her spiritual power.

After a cup of tea, the eunuchs and guards outside the hall began to change shifts, and a group of people walked back and forth around Youshu, bringing up gusts of hot air.Suddenly, a tinge of Yin Qi seeped into the scorching hot wind, which may be difficult for others to notice, but You Shu, who had been fighting against the ghost for ten years, immediately woke up from her meditation. go.

He thought it was a debt collector ghost, but he didn't expect that the person who came was a woman with a bright red tongue, oh no, it should be a female ghost.She walked up the steps slowly, passed Youshu, and stepped into the Hall of Mental Cultivation calmly.

Youshu was stunned, never expecting that there would be ghosts in the world who were not afraid of dragon spirit.In other words, this woman is a more powerful existence than a debt collector.If the debt collector ghost continues to stay in the mortal world and cause trouble, one day it can grow to the level of a female ghost.In other words, when that day comes, even Ji Changye will not be able to protect himself.

Thinking of this, Youshu suddenly became flustered, and was about to step forward to take a closer look, but saw the female ghost stumbling out, and said in horror, "How can the third prince have purple dragon aura? Ji Zhengze is a dead dog!"

Ji Naiguo's surname is self-evident who the female ghost is talking about is Ji Zheng.She walked slowly before, her posture was calm, it can be seen that she had been pestering Ji Zhengze for a long time, but she ran away in a hurry the moment she saw Ji Changye, obviously very afraid of the purple dragon spirit.After all, Ji Zhengze is the emperor, so he should have dragon energy to protect his body, but this female ghost is not afraid of him, and comes to pester him from time to time. From this, it can be inferred that the female ghost's morality should be higher than that of debt collector ghosts, and she has a blood feud with Ji Zhengze, and Ji Changye really Can restrain the ghosts in the world.

Youshu rolled her eyes and thought about it.Because it was shift change time and there was no one around, he hooked his index finger at the female ghost, and then walked towards the imperial garden beside him.

The female ghost's blood-red eyes widened, with a hesitant expression.

Youshu turned back as she walked, and continued to hook her index finger.

Only then did the female ghost confirm that the little eunuch could really see her.She was already dead anyway, so she had nothing to worry about, so Piao Piao Hu Hu followed.One person and one ghost turned to a deserted corner and started talking.

"How can you see me?"

As soon as the female ghost opened her mouth, Youshu knew the identity of the other party.Claiming to be the Imperial Palace, she is the emperor's concubine, and her status is not low; her eyeballs are protruding, her tongue is long, and she probably hanged herself; no, judging from the bruises on her neck, she should have been strangled death, and the culprit is the emperor, otherwise he would not come to the Hall of Mental Cultivation at the risk of being swallowed by the dragon's energy.The phrase "a good dog's life" is not a love story of reluctantly saying goodbye.

"I have yin and yang eyes." Youshu stroked her eyelids, and said straight to the point, "How about we make a deal?"
