Zhuo Qihua

Zhuo Ji left three months worth of "Great Vajra Pills" for Ming Xun and left Yanxin Palace to visit De Guixie and His Royal Highness at Yunyue Palace.Of course, Dali Jingang Pills are not for Ming Xun, but for Ming Xun to give to those in need at home.Mingyu was very happy, smiling like a child who got a gift and liked it.

The reason why Mingyu refused to give the 3 taels of silver to Emperor Yong'an was not because he was unwilling.It just broke out here that Zhuo Ji used his private house to fill the shortfall of the palace secretary, and Ming Xun gave 3 taels of silver to Emperor Yong'an. This is not to support Zhuo Ji, but to slap Zhuo Ji in the face, and people will even say Zhuo Ji It's a trick to force the lords of the palaces to take their private houses.And in his heart, Ming Xi wanted to leave the money to Zhuo Ji.Zhuo Ji is not like his natal family that he can rely on.Now Zhuo Ji can be said to have broken up with the Zhuo family, it is always good to keep some money with him.

Arriving at Yunyue Palace, without accident, Zhuo Ji was reprimanded by the noble concubine who was still in confinement, saying that he was too bold to operate on the little prince.After comforting Deguixie, he checked the wound for Deguixie. Zhuo Ji also gave Deguixie a three-month supply of "Great Vajra Pills", and then hugged the little highness to tease him.

Deguixie half-lyed on the bed, and said: "Yesterday, someone visited you in the court hall, saying that it was against the rules for His Majesty to let you live in Fengtian Hall, and someone compared you with the previous dynasty's subjugated demon concubine, saying that you were bewitching Your Majesty."

Zhuo Ji was stunned: "I, the demon concubine of the subjugated country? Your Majesty didn't tell me."

But Degui Xie laughed and said: "Those people are talking nonsense. If all the demon concubines of the subjugated country are like you who don't like to dress up and are sloppy, then the subjugated king must be so stupid."

Zhuo Ji: "Brother Tong, do you mean that His Majesty is blind? Hiss—!"

Zhuo Ji, who was pinched severely by De Guixie on his thigh, burst into tears.This woman loves to pinch people, unexpectedly brother Mu also loves to pinch people!

De Guixie: "Your Majesty didn't tell you, because he didn't want these dirty things to upset you. Most of the ministers who attended you were instructed by some people in Danyang Palace. You have to be more careful, don't be fooled by others." You didn’t realize that you were behind the scenes. Thanks to His Majesty’s love for you, you were not deceived by them. Although it is too bold for you to perform an operation on the young prince, it is not without benefits. As long as the young prince can recover, Wu Shao’s palace will be safe in the future. I will definitely stand by your side. Xianyi Palace has always had a close relationship with Wu Shao Palace. Wu Shao Wang has accepted your kindness, and Xianyi King will follow Wu Shao Wang. They are not stupid, they know how to hold tight Your golden thigh will benefit you in the future."

Zhuo Ji looked at his "golden" thigh that had just been pinched, it was obviously a ham that wasn't hard enough!

"The 'Great King Kong Pill' you gave Shi Yu probably gave him great benefits. Shi Yu, who has never been involved with the harem, actually spoke well of you in public. Since Shi Yu is willing to sell it first, you Let’s go with the flow.”

Zhuo Ji nodded: "I will leave a copy of Shi Shangshu's 'Diligent King Kong Pill' for him in the future. I heard from His Majesty that after Shi Shangshu took the 'Dali King Kong Pill', his waist was not sore and his legs didn't hurt, and his food tasted delicious. Two of his concubines are pregnant."

Deguixie exclaimed: "Is this 'Dali Vajra Pill' so miraculously effective?"

Zhuo Ji: "I didn't expect that either. Maybe it's just a coincidence?"

De Guixie immediately said bluntly: "You have to reserve three for me. Medicinal materials and so on, just ask how much you need."

"no problem."

The little majesty is pooping.De Guixie called the wet nurse to take the little highness away, then took out a list from under the pillow and handed it to Zhuo Ji.Zhuo Ji opened it and saw that it was the same as the list Mingyu gave him.De Guixie gave him two shops in Dongluo City, a house in Dongluo City, 1 mu of fertile land in Yunyang County, Jingzhao Prefecture, and [-] taels of silver.

De Guixie: "I know that Mingyu has prepared a lot of medicinal materials for you. I will always prepare medicinal materials for you here, so I won't write them here. I don't want to say anything about the relationship between you and me. If you are grateful, you can keep these things. You gave your private house to His Majesty, but you can’t keep any money in your hands. You and Zhuo’s family are torn apart, and these things should be given to you as my brother. Private property purchased. The house deed, land deed and silver are all in the pharmacy, you can pick them up when you leave the palace, and you can take a look at the shop and the house if you like it." De Guixie put his hand on Zhuo Ji's, "Zhuo Ji, As long as you do well, we 'several' can do well."

Zhuo Ji smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'll be fine. I'll accept the gift from you, but don't give it to me again in the future. I'm lazy, I have too many things in my hand, I won't be bothered to take care of them." .”

"You're too lazy to die!"

After leaving Yunyue Palace, Zhuo Ji went to Huayang Palace.Unsurprisingly, Zhuo Ji was also read aloud by Mrs. Huang, because it was because it was too risky for him to operate on the little prince.However, Huang Guixie's words are similar to Deguixie's. Since he has done everything, as long as the little prince's hernia can be cured, even if he can't be completely cured, as long as he can survive, the Wu Shao Palace will remember his kindness.I don't know if several people made an appointment, but Huang Guixie also gave Zhuo Ji a list.Zhuo Ji couldn't help asking: "Cui, have you made an appointment?"

Huang Guixie smiled and said: "Yes and no. Tomorrow, I asked Deguixie what kind of medicinal materials would be suitable for you. Bengong and Deguixie knew that he had prepared a thank you gift for you. Originally, I was thinking of waiting until the busy period was over. I'll bring it to you again, but who would have thought that you would actually give your Majesty all the money from your private house. I'm not afraid that the people in the palace will say that you are forcing everyone to take out their private houses."

Zhuo Ji said indifferently: "Anyway, it's fine if you don't think so, I can't control others."

Huang Guixie just loves to hear Zhuo Ji's indiscriminate words with them.Huang Guixie said: "No matter how capable you are, you still need to have some private property. I'm afraid the Zhuo family will die. It's better if you don't get involved with them. You don't have to worry that the Zhuo family will find your biological mother to embarrass you You entered the palace as the son of the Zhuo family, if they found your biological mother, they would be deceiving the emperor."

Zhuo Ji nodded: "This is the best, I don't want to get involved with Zhuo's family, they can take care of themselves."

Huang Guixie was also not polite with Zhuo Ji, and ordered Dali Jingang Pills for three people with Zhuo Ji.Zhuo Ji also left three months worth of Vajra Pills for Huang Guixie.After leaving Huayang Palace, Zhuo Ji went to Yuxian Palace in the East Eighth Palace.This is not Zhuo Ji's first visit to East Eighth Palace, but it is his first time to Yuxian Palace.

Not to mention how surprised Concubine Xi was when she learned that Zhuo Ji was coming.In her room there are several nobles who have not left since they came to pay her respects, always present, and promised.Concubine Xi directly asked these people to go back first.Zhuo Ji was dressed in plain clothes, with a braid at the back of his head, without any make-up, except for the adornment on his waist, he didn't have any jewelry on his body.In contrast, the beautifully dressed concubines couldn't help but look a few more times when they saw this Shunji, who was completely different from the day of the Changqing Festival, and they had different thoughts.

Nodding lightly to the concubines who greeted him, Zhuo Ji entered the East Pavilion.The concubines went back to their respective palaces.Jing Lirou, who was walking with Jing Lanzhen, asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, tell me, this Shun is so unkempt, undressed, and sloppy, why does His Majesty love you so much?"

Jing Lanzhen said in a low voice: "This is his strength. He can make His Majesty Jinkou Yuyan move to Fengtian Palace without dressing up. My father sent a letter to come in, and the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, King Wu Shao and King Xianyi openly asked He sold well. If you think about it again, why does the little prince of Wu Shao Palace treat his illness in Xiangfu Palace instead of going to the Imperial Medical Office? Doctor Hu and the others are all in Xiangfu Palace."

Jing Lirou: "This Shun is mysterious and weird."

Jing Lanzhen laughed lowly: "Your Majesty hasn't seen Shi Fangyun for a long time."

Jing Lirou: "Shi Fangyun's pregnancy is unstable, it's normal for His Majesty to let her rest."

Jing Lanzhen: "If His Majesty really loves her, and she is not pregnant, His Majesty will often visit her. Your Majesty may go to see Huang Guifei and them from time to time. Shi Fangyun thinks he is smart, but he doesn't know that she may have provoked His Majesty's life." Tired."

Jing Lirou: "When Shi Fangyun competed with Shunyu for favor?"

Jing Lanzhen nodded: "Shi Fangyun thinks she is beautiful and more talented than us, and she became pregnant as soon as she entered the palace. She should be extremely favored. She wants to try whether His Majesty loves her or favors her more." He, but in the end he lifted a rock and shot himself in the foot. I couldn't see clearly at first. I understood it on the day of Changqing Festival. Your Majesty's love for Shun You is far beyond our reach, I'm afraid it is The imperial concubine and concubine are all well aware of this, so they turned a blind eye to it. If His Majesty really loves Shi Fangyun, he will not let Empress Xiao and Concubine Wen return to the main palace. You and I In this palace, if you offend anyone, don't offend that Shun Zuo."

Jing Lirou nodded.

As soon as Zhuo Ji came, he naturally wanted to check Concubine Xi's body.Concubine Xi's body is recovering well, but because there are many things on the concubine's side, Concubine Xi is a bit too busy, Zhuo Ji told her to take more rest and not stop exercising every day.After Zhuo Ji took out the three-month supply of "Great Vajra Pills" for Concubine Xi, Concubine Xi also gave him a list.Zhuo Ji understood that this was definitely an appointment between the four of them.

Concubine Xi's natal family doesn't have that much financial resources, but her list is full of sincerity.Concubine Xi's home is also in the south of the Yangtze River, and she gave Zhuo Ji a mountain full of lush green bamboos.At the foot of the mountain is a river, and not far away is a village.Everyone in the village has the surname Kuang, and that's where Concubine Xi Gui's hometown is.Concubine Xigui gave this mountain to Zhuo Ji, and also gave Zhuo Ji the Kuang family's ancestral house in the village.Concubine Xi knows that Zhuo Ji's paper mill needs bamboo, and Zhuo Ji can build another paper mill here in the future.Zhuo Ji also told Concubine Xi not to give him any more gifts, and Concubine Xi agreed.

After leaving Yuxian Palace, Zhuo Ji went to Shoukang Palace to greet the Queen Mother.What he gave to the Queen Mother was also a copy of "Dali King Kong Pill".The queen mother can't eat it, so she can give it to her family.Emperor Mingzong forbade the queen mother to have more contact with her natal family, but did not say that the queen mother should not have any contact with her natal family.Zhuo Ji knew from Emperor Yong'an that the queen mother's brothers were still alive.

No one else was there with the Queen Mother.The concubines who greeted the queen mother have all left.Empress Dowager Liu Zhuoji talked for a long time, and of course asked about Nan Rong Chensong's situation.After that, the queen mother asked Aunt Shen to fetch a wooden box, and then the queen mother gave the wooden box to Zhuo Ji together with a key.Zhuo Ji didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Empress Dowager, have you discussed with Huang Guixie and the others?"

The queen mother smiled and said, "I do know about the gift of thanks for you, the imperial concubine. From my point of view, their gift of thanks came too late. This is not a gift of thanks. You are the emperor's maid, Laoshen thanked you, that was a stranger to you. Laoshen's natal family was from an ordinary family. After I entered the palace, I had very little contact with my natal family. Emperor Mingzong and Emperor Shenzong felt that they owed Laoshen, so they bought a lot of private property for Laoshen. These Private property, after a hundred years of old age, will naturally be left to the emperor. Here are the land deeds and house deeds of some farms and shops, as well as the deeds of sale of some servants, and the deeds of sale of some managers.

These things can earn some money in Laoshou's hands, but Laoshen believes that if they are in your hands, they will only earn more.Those who are able work harder, so you can work hard to help the old man earn more money. "

Zhuo Ji wanted to cry but had no tears: "Queen Mother, I am not only a 'send a son', but I will soon become a 'little money-making expert'."

"Hehehe..."

Zhuo Ji still took away the heavy box.After returning to Fengtian Hall, he went directly to Zhixing Hall.Emperor Yong'an was having afternoon tea, Zhuo Ji had been out for more than two hours.Seeing Zhuo Ji coming back with a box in his hands, Emperor Yong'an stared at his face: "What's wrong? Who made you angry?"

Zhuo Ji sat on the Luohan bed, put the box on the kang table, and shook his head: "Who in the palace dares to be angry with me. Your Majesty, why did you tell me to donate money in the morning? It's all right now, Queen Mother, Brother Yao, Brother Tong, Brother Yue, and the imperial concubine all think that I am poor now, and buy me private property in a corner, and I will be ashamed to go to their palace in the future."

Emperor Yong'an was delighted: "The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager bought you private property? What kind of private property did they buy?"

Zhuo Ji put the key on the box, then took out four sheets from his sleeve, and put them together.Emperor Yong'an picked up those lists first.He opened the first one, and Zhuo Ji said, "This is from Brother Yao."

Emperor Yong'an glanced roughly, and said with a smile: "The Grand Master is generous."

Zhuo Ji: "What's the matter with the Grand Master?"

Emperor Yong'an: "Your Majesty is the Grand Master's grandson. It is impossible for the Grand Master not to know what he bought for you. This'Youranju' is a good place for hot soup after the cold weather. The Grand Master often goes here every year. Office. The imperial concubine gave it to you now, which is the meaning of the grand master."

Zhuo Ji was surprised: "Then the grand master will have no place to go in the future?"

Emperor Yong'an: "The Shao's family does not lack this hot soup place." He continued, "2 taels of silver. Well, not too much, not too little, just right." Naturally, there are other houses as gifts from Huang Guixie , shops and fertile fields.Emperor Yong'an picked up the second one.

"It was given by the imperial concubine."

Emperor Yong'an unfolded it, and after reading it, he said: "The noble concubine's family status is not high, and her list is indeed sincere. You can keep it. In a few days, I will mention the two elder brothers of the noble concubine and one of the empress dowagers. A nephew has entered the court."

Zhuo Ji: "Didn't Emperor Mingzong not allow it?"

Emperor Yong'an: "I use him because he is suitable to be used by me. After entering the court, he is only a courtier, not my cousin, and I will not let him enter the palace to meet the queen mother. If he is promising, he will naturally revitalize all families. "

Zhuo Ji knew that Emperor Yong'an planned to appoint Concubine Xi's two elder brothers, and he was not surprised that Emperor Yong'an had made up his mind now.Putting down the gift list for Concubine Xi, Emperor Yong'an picked up another one.

"It was given by Brother Tong."

After seeing it, Emperor Yong'an also nodded, expressing his satisfaction: "Your Majesty is thoughtful, the Guan family has a strict family style, and Guan Minghui and his sons are also quite well-behaved. Whether it is in the court's political affairs or in your affairs Well, what Deguixie and Guan Minghui did won my heart. I consider that next year, Guan Minghui will be in the cabinet."

Zhuo Ji: "Where is Brother Yao?"

Emperor Yong'an: "He is already an imperial concubine, and the Grand Master has a high position and authority. His father is already in the cabinet. If I give a big reward again, it will not be a good thing for the Shao family or the King of Qin. It may not be good for me either." Good thing. Unless the grand master dies, I will consider the other members of Ti Shao's family. Wait until the noble concubine is born. At that time, no matter male or female, the positions of his first elder brother and younger brother will be changed. After the grand master dies, I will He will mention his father's seat. As a concubine in the harem, the mother's family can have status, but they can't cross the boundary. If I cross the boundary, I will not be able to sleep." What Emperor Yong'an didn't say was that this "Qin" king alone is enough to shine. Home, he doesn't need to do anything else.

Zhuo Ji felt very helpless, this could be regarded as the emperor's sorrow.He said: "Then, brother Yao is born, and your Majesty the son of the third child should show his face. After all, brother Yao is a noble concubine, and some things are better to be special."

Emperor Yong'an: "Yes."

For the last one, Zhuo Ji didn't say whose it was, because only Mingyu was left.
