MTL - The Crown Prince Chases His Wife-Chapter 137 envy

Shangjing, the Censor's Office.

During the lunch break, Wang Jingyi went to the archives alone to check the files and familiarize herself with past cases.

Wang Jingyi is considered a half-way into the officialdom. Although she initially entered the censor's desk for a purpose that was not simple, but after getting started for a while, she also gained a lot of sense of accomplishment in her official business that she had never experienced in her boudoir.

It seems that as Ji Mu said at the beginning, he is suitable to be an official?

Jimu…

Wang Jingyi stopped turning over the file in her hand, and she was a little lost.

------

That night on the Qianshui Lake was absurd, and when she woke up the next day, she had already purchased the Ji residence in the south of Shangjing in Jimu.

Although Wang Jingyi was very drunk last night, she still vaguely remembers what she did to Ji Mu.

Wang Jingyi got up and sat on the edge of the bed, holding her forehead with her hand, and a more important matter instantly came to her mind.

Avoid child soup.

At this time, the door was knocked lightly three times, the sound fell, and the door was slowly pushed open.

The one who stepped forward was a handsome man dressed in a moon-white brocade robe and holding a black lacquer tray in his hand.

Wang Jingyi, who was still sitting by the couch, looked at Ji Mu, who had just entered the room, and both of them looked away awkwardly.

Ji Mu put the tray in his hand on a round table in the house, but his eyes did not leave the white porcelain bowl with the dark brown soup in the tray for a long time.

The man's tall body stood by the table, but he was silent.

Wang Jingyi followed Ji Mu's line of sight, and in the porcelain bowl was...

Wang Jingyi had some guesses, and there was some humiliation in her heart for no reason, and at the same time, she was a little self-deprecating.

I'm not planning to drink it myself...

"This is Bizi Tang." Ji Mu's voice was low. He stared at Wang Jingyi and said the name of the medicine that Wang Jingyi guessed.

Wang Jingyi's nose was slightly sour, and the composure she had maintained for twenty years broke the defense in an instant.

She stood up abruptly and walked towards the round table with a stride, but due to discomfort between her legs, she took a step forward and fell to the ground.

But what greeted Wang Jingyi was the man's hard chest, which made her already sore body hurt.

Soft in Ji Muhuai, Wang Jingyi's entire nasal cavity was filled with the clear and unknown scent of incense on the man. At this moment, Wang Jingyi actually had a leisurely feeling and secretly praised this man's taste is not bad.

But the peace is only for a moment, and Wang Jingyi struggled to get out of Ji Mu's embrace.

Ji Mu frowned slightly, picked up the woman in his arms and walked to the bed.

Ji Mu put Wang Jingyi on the edge of the couch and sat down, then squatted down with one knee on the ground, pressed Wang Jingyi's arms with both hands, and patiently comforted:

"Lord Wang, Wang Jingyi, look at me and listen to me."

Wang Jingyi's chest rose and fell, her eyebrows were furrowed, and she looked into Ji Mu's deep black eyes.

Ji Mu's palms naturally flowed down from Wang Jingyi's arms, holding her pair of slender hands on her knees, and said seriously:

"Wang Jingyi, I love you."

Wang Jingyi was a little stunned when the man in front of her suddenly expressed her intentions.

Ji Mu clenched the slender white hand of the woman in front of him, looked at Wang Jingyi's black eyes with some water, and said solemnly:

"Wang Jingyi, I, Ji Mu, beg you to be my wife."

"It has nothing to do with what happened last night. You are so smart, you should be able to feel my heart for you."

"If you agree, I can immediately ask the official media to go to the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion to propose marriage."

Wang Jingyi was slightly surprised that this man was so direct.

Ji Mu shook Wang Jingyi's hand again, as if to reassure her:

"Wang Jingyi, I want to confess to you that I once arranged for a marriage, but...the woman took the initiative to break off the marriage."

"I didn't have much involvement with other women before, including the ex-fiancee."

"If you are willing to be my wife, I, Ji Mu, promise that there will be no concubines in the mansion in the future, only you."

"You and I can make a contract before getting married. If I, Ji Mu, don't fulfill my promise to you, you can unconditionally propose a divorce and take away half of my property."

Ji Mu's eyes were always fixed on Wang Jingyi's face, but Wang Jingyi's face did not show anything other than a little surprise.

Wang Jingyi can also see the sincerity in Ji Mu's words, but...

Nothing to do with last night? Not necessarily.

Later, when everyone knew Ji Mu's other identity, the only son of the Xuzhou boat king Ji's family, Wang Jingyi understood how huge the half of the property Ji Mu said today was the price of his promise.

After a sigh, Ji Mu lowered his eyelids to hide a trace of sadness in his eyes, got up and walked to the door, but stopped at the door again.

Ji Mu turned to look at Wang Jingyi with a pale expression,

"This bowl of Bizi soup, whether to drink it or not, the choice is yours."

In the end, Wang Jingyi didn't say a word, Ji Mu stepped out and closed the door.

After Wang Jingyi sat silently in the room for a long time, she finally got up and walked towards the round table. She stretched out her hand to pick up the white porcelain bowl and drank the slightly bitter soup that had already cooled down.

------

At this time, a few female officials were talking outside the case room, which interrupted Wang Jingyi's memories.

"Have you heard? The only daughter of the Marquis of Guannei and the eldest son of the Zuo Xiangfu have left."

"Why haven't I heard that the Guannei Hou's Mansion has issued a notice with great fanfare. It seems that the two families are not very happy because of this matter."

"Hey, you said that the second miss of Zuo Xiang's mansion has been conferred to be Princess Liang, and the eldest miss Wang is still at the censor's desk. She has done a good job as a censor, so she doesn't plan to get married. Right."

"Hey, what you said, Miss Wang has a family background, looks and ability, so what if she can get married?"

"That's true. Fortunately, Daxia women can not only do business abroad, but also become officials in the court. Women who don't want to marry do have many choices, and they are also free from the negotiation of their in-laws."

"I heard that after a supervising censor resigned from office and got married, she was beaten and kicked by her husband all day because of the discord between her husband and wife. This matter even reached the Jingzhao Mansion. It's really a sin."

"A man who hits a woman is really not a thing."

"that is."

"Hey, do you still remember the former Censor Zhongchengji, who only came to the Censor's Terrace for a few days?"

"Why don't I remember, I remember all the good-looking ones."

"I heard that after Qin You's resignation, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel filled the vacancy of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. And then Mr. Ji was promoted from the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel to the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. Mr. Ji has not yet reached his thirteenth year, I'm afraid it is The youngest minister in the history of Daxia."

"It's amazing to be in a high position at such a young age!"

"I accidentally heard Master Ji and Xu Zhongcheng talk about how they seem to be giving gifts to Master Ji's mansion. Should we send a gift too? After all, we used to be colleagues..."

"Who remembers you and me, I still don't know how careful you are... I heard that Ji Shangshu hasn't married yet, hahaha..."

"Men's unmarried and women's unmarried, can't even think about it?"

"Aren't you afraid that when you get married, you will be scolded by your husband's family, and you will eat your husband's fists?"

"Looking at that gentleman Ji's gentle, modest and gentleman's appearance, I'm afraid not..."

"Don't miss spring, it's almost time for duty, let's go, let's go..."

…

As the voice faded away, Wang Jingyi withdrew her messy thoughts back to the file in her hand, but she didn't read a word for a long time.

Mild and refined...a modest gentleman...

She vaguely remembered that Ji Mu that night was not what the female officials said.

So that after returning from Ji's house that day, she recovered for two days before returning to the government office.

Ji Mu... Minister of Officials?

It seems she guessed right.

Ji Muding is the prince's faction.

The power of the prince's means is unfathomable, and his father is still obsessed with the king of Liang Fengyi.

On one side is the uncle of the prince, and on the other is the father-in-law of King Liang.

However, there is no such thing as cheap in the world.

What else can you do...

------

After the prince got married, the envoys from various countries left Shangjing one after another with a belly full of gossip with the generous gifts of thanks from the Daxia royal family.

Honglu Temple ordered the Xirong Mission to provide a large amount of ice at the post station along the way from Beijing for the mission to use in the coffin of the late Xirong Prince, in order to prevent the body from decaying too quickly.

Xirong King Jiang Quyi accepted this kindness with a dark face.

Jiang Quyi's entry into the summer has repeatedly been unsatisfactory, and the emperor's son Jiang Shang has suffered this great disaster, but the person who was sent to assassinate Jiang Xun, the orphan of the former Xirong king, came back and reported that Jiang Xun was surrounded by all the masters of the masters, Jiang Xunsan Within a zhang, they can't get close at all.

Jiang Quyi had no choice but to give up, and make plans after returning to Xirong.

Some people in Shangjing left and some returned.

The prince of Duanwang's mansion, Feng Subei, returned to Beijing. He would represent the Daxia royal family and **** the Princess Huayang and the pro-Beiliang.

------

Shangjing, Duanwangfu.

After Feng Su Bei arrived in Beijing, he first went to the Prince's Mansion to report his duties and hand over official duties.

The prince's concubine An Yanxi dressed up at the mansion gate to welcome the prince's return to the mansion.

In the main hall, Feng Subei said to An Yanxi:

"Since you have recovered, you can return to Youzhou this time."

An Yanxi did not respond directly to Feng Subei, but smiled and said:

"The two young ladies from the Qin Mansion, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, are already engaged, have you heard?"

Feng Subei's eyes were sharp, and his face was cold.

He used to think that An Yanxi was hypocritical, but he didn't know that she was so annoying.

And how could he not know the news of Qin Lin's engagement. As early as on his way back to Beijing, the news was handed to him.

------

One day before the prince's wedding, the princess of Fengyu Palace was assassinated. Due to the involvement of the assassin Su Qing, Qin Wenxuan, Minister of Industry, was invited to the Prince's Mansion for interrogation.

Although the Qin Mansion was finally cleared of suspicion, Su Qing got the information from Qin Xi's words, so he could pretend to be Qin Lin and enter the Fengyu Palace. , Qin Lin went back to the house and asked her mother Zhu Shi to discuss the marriage of the two sisters.

Qin Lin didn't want her and Qin Xi to cause trouble to the Crown Princess again, and the fact this time was too big. Fortunately, the Crown Princess didn't really have an accident. If the prince's mansion hadn't looked at the prince's love, Qin Xi might not be able to come back.

Qin Lin took into account that in order to protect the two sisters, her mother did not have any more children, nor did her father take a concubine.

And the father and mother will eventually grow old. If she and Qin Xi get married, how lonely the old age will be in the old age.

And Qin Lin's proposal is to ask her mother Zhu to recruit a husband for her and Qin Xi.

This is exactly what Qin Wenxuan, Zhu Shi and Qin Xi wanted.

The four of them hit it off, and there were many matchmakers who came to discuss the marriage when they got the news.

In the end, Qin Xi settled on the only son of a merchant family in Shangjing who had contacts with the Zhu family, while Qin Lin settled on a fifth-grade man from the Ministry of Industry who was born in an ordinary but innocent family background.

------

An Yanxi observed the expression on Feng Subei's face, and said with a sarcastic smile:

"Looks like you already got the news."

"It's no wonder, after all, you sent someone to protect her at all times."

Feng Subei looked at An Yanxi coldly, his pupils shrinking.

An Yanxi took a sip of tea and continued:

"Don't be nervous, I'm not going to do anything to her."

"It was my own husband who was unfaithful, one time, one hundred times, so why should I anger the woman who was trying to seduce my husband?"

"An Yanxi!" The back of Feng Subei's hand buckled on the armrests on both sides burst into blue veins, trying his best to suppress the anger in his chest.

This woman's words are getting worse and worse!

"On the day I leave at the latest, you must leave Beijing!" Feng Subei dropped these words and got up and strode away.

An Yanxi closed her eyes and calmed the happiness in her chest.

But this time, she has no reason to drag her away...

------

When Feng Subei was taking a bath, he kept thinking about the task given to him by the prince today. After getting up and changing his clothes, he went to the study to check the map of the northern realm.

After a stick of incense, Feng Subei squeezed his eyebrows to rest, and his attendant Lin Shu served a cup of hot tea. After some hesitation, he asked:

"Sir, do you want to take back the person who was sent to protect Miss Qin Fulin?"

Feng Subei paused for a moment, then sighed, his voice was a little tired and hoarse:

"No, just let them stay in Beijing to protect her secretly. Remember, don't disturb her life."

Feng Subei's chest was slightly stagnant, her life... Qin Lin's life about marrying someone else...

Wiping his face with his hand, Feng Subei drank a sip of tea, throwing out the distracting thoughts in his mind, and continued to pick up the map and frown to take a closer look.

On his trip to Beiliang, in addition to escorting Princess Huayang, he has another mission.

Feng Subei will be responsible for the intelligence exchanges between Daxia and Beiliang.

And his task is most likely to prepare for the war, and there is no room for mistakes.

He will go to the front line, and his sons and daughters will love each other, so he will stay in Shangjing, and stay until today...

------

Xishan Prince's Mansion, Cangtai Waterside Pavilion.

Qin Yan was sitting behind a sea of ​​tea and brewing tea. Her hands continued to move up and down. When she was free, she raised her eyes and glanced at Shen Shiying, who had a casual attitude on the opposite side, her red lips slightly hooked.

If Uncle Huai was here, he would have said that the two of them were really a mother and daughter.

Shen Shiying picked up the fine white porcelain teacup that Qin Yan had pushed to her, sniffed the aroma of the tea lightly, and took a sip.

Shen Shiying put down the tea cup and said lazily to Qin Yan:

"I didn't expect that she actually went to Yizhou."

"Are you people in Yizhou reliable?"

Qin Yan started to boil the second pot of tea, without taking her eyes off the tea set in her hand, she said softly:

"People's hearts are changeable, and there is absolute reliability."

"Even if it's real news, there may be fake sources. But after distinguishing it by yourself, you need to do a few more preparations."

Qin Yan recalled Song Yin, the princess of Yizhou. This woman is ruthless, and she really doesn't recognize her six relatives.

Shen Shiying put her elbows on the edge of the tea table, raised her feet on another low stool, looked at Qin Yan, and said with a half-smile:

"Yanyan, how can I give birth to a daughter with such a small head and such a clever mind?"

Qin Yan raised her eyes and glanced at the mature and beautiful woman opposite, and said coolly:

"Miss Shen is too modest, and you are not bad."

"Hahaha..." Shen Shiying laughed heartily.

------

Qin Yan pushed another cup of tea to Shen Shiying on the opposite side. After Shen Shiying drank it, she suddenly put away the joke on her face, and her tone became more serious:

"You and I forced the Empress Dowager Xiao away, the prince should also know about it."

Since Shen Shiying returned to Beijing, she did not mention the grudges between her and the Queen Mother Xiao too much in front of Qin Yan.

No matter how ruthless the Empress Dowager Xiao acts and the more lives she has on her hands, she still has more or less kindness to Emperor Hui and the Prince after all.

Qin Yan is now the prince concubine, Shen Shiying does not want to embarrass Qin Yan because of her hatred and affect the relationship between Qin Yan and the prince and his wife.

Qin Yan also understood Shen Shiying's concerns, so she gave Empress Dowager Xiao a chance to leave the palace and Shangjing.

If the Empress Dowager Xiao stopped at this point, then let's not talk about it.

But if Mrs. Xiao becomes a demon again, I'm sorry, since she has already left the palace, then she Qin Yan will not recognize any empress dowager who is kind to the royal family.

On the day of the polo match, Shen Shiying made a special trip to Shou'an Palace, and expressed her suspicion that Empress Dowager Xiao had murdered their mother and daughter.

Afterwards, Concubine Shu and Song Mei were killed, but Empress Dowager Xiao took their lives and quickly left the palace that night.

And Empress Dowager Xiao was able to go out of the palace smoothly, and even out of the city, in addition to her own previous arrangements, there were also those "oversights" that Qin Yan and the prince deliberately arranged in the imperial city and Shangjing.

Qin Yan did not answer Shen Shiying's words, but asked Shen Ying to get a new set of tea sets, and Qin Yan brewed tea with clean hands.

Guessing the time, those two should come too.

Not long after, two tall, handsome and imposing men stepped into the water pavilion, which instantly made the originally spacious water pavilion feel cramped.

Prince Feng Zhan and Emperor Xiao Qian of Northern Liang went straight to the tea table where the two women were, and chose a Zen chair closest to their women to sit down.

Feng Zhan cleaned his hands, took the tea set in Qin Yan's hand, and continued the tea-making steps that Qin Yan had not completed.

Shen Shiying was very satisfied with the thoughtfulness of the son-in-law, Prince Feng Zhan, to her daughter. She curled her lips into a smile, but suddenly felt pain in her hand.

It was Xiao Qian, the Emperor of Northern Liang, who was beside him. This dark-faced man squeezed Shen Shiying's hand on his lap again.

Shen Shiying looked back suspiciously, but after years of getting along, she instantly read the meaning in Xiao Qian's eyes.

Take another look at other men and try.

Shen Shiying smiled and shook the always jealous man beside him, and then took the tea cup that Feng Zhan handed over.

After a few people drank, they all got up and left.

------

Qin Yan and Feng Zhan went to the study of Chenghua Hall in the Prince's Mansion.

Song Zhi replied to the two masters:

"Your Highness, Crown Princess."

"Su Qing should have received very strict anti-interrogation training, and his subordinates have never opened his mouth."

"But there's another piece of progress that doesn't count as progress."

"Su Qing didn't eat, drink, or sleep in the dark prison for three days and three nights. He used all kinds of torture tools once. After he was in extreme pain and exhaustion, his subordinates ordered someone to read the list of our suspicions in his ear."

"When he heard a name, he finally had an untraceable reaction, but it was only once. After that, the same method would not work. He should have turned on the defensive mode again."

"And the name that made Su Qing react is the name of the New Moon Princess in the Southern Border, Shi Yue."

"My subordinates believe that Su Qing's reaction does not seem to be a fake, but this is only a subordinate's guess, and it is still up to His Royal Highness and the Crown Princess to decide."

"This person is indeed very willpower. He is an extremely good workman. His subordinates will do their best to continue the interrogation."

After Song Zhi left, Feng Zhan and Qin Yan did not immediately discuss the matter that Song Zhi reported, but talked about another matter.

Feng Zhan spoke to Qin Yan solemnly, a statement and a promise:

"I know that you forced the queen mother away because you didn't want to cause a gap between you and me because of the queen mother."

"It's just the last chance for the Queen Mother. If she goes to Yizhou to spend her old age in peace, then let her die in Yizhou."

"But if the queen mother does something harmful to Da Xia, she will never tolerate it."

Qin Yan did not doubt Feng Zhan's remarks, but...

"If it really goes that far, I will do it myself." Qin Yan's voice was cold and could not be refused.

------

After coming out of Chenghua Hall, Feng Zhan grabbed Qin Yan and whispered in Qin Yan's ear:

"Yanyan doesn't want to go to see the lonely dormitory?"

Before their marriage, Feng Zhan and Qin Yan lived in the then main mansion of Zhaoren County. They were in the East Palace of the Imperial City on the night of their marriage, and they returned to Qin Yan's Fengyu Palace after they got married.

Feng Zhan was possessive and wanted to abduct Qin Yan to the bed where he had slept alone for many years in his bedroom for a long time. Feng Zhan naturally would not miss this rare opportunity today.

Feng Zhan's bedroom?

Qin Yan guessed some of the prince's thoughts. After all, they have changed a lot in these days...

Seeing that there was some interest in Qin Yan's eyes, Feng Zhan immediately picked Qin Yan up and strode towards the bedroom.

On the way, the palace servants all bowed their heads and avoided them with warm faces and heartbeats.

The relationship between the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess is really...

The layout of Feng Zhan's bedroom in the Prince's Mansion was not much different from that of Qin Yan's Fengyu Palace, and the decorations in the palace were also quite different. They were all based on practicality and simplicity, which made Qin Yan feel more agreeable to Feng Zhan.

After tossing around in the bathroom for a while, the two returned to the bedroom.

On the bed, Qin Yan was still chaotic on Feng Zhan as usual. Feng Zhan supported Qin Yan's waist with both palms, breathing heavily and his eyes were red.

Qin Yan's movements suddenly stopped, and he leaned down and said in a hoarse voice:

"I'm a little curious. Is that Princess New Moon using illusions on Her Royal Highness, is it for the public? Or is it for personal?"

"After all, His Highness's beauty is..."

"Vinegar?" The man's Adam's apple rolled up and down, his voice low and hoarse:

"Should I be glad that I have such a beauty that Yan Yan can see, eh?"

When the voice fell, Feng Zhan turned over and pressed the woman down, moving slowly with restraint and temptation:

"Yanyan, what should you call Gu?"

"His Royal Highness... um... husband?" Qin Yan was flushed red and sweaty, frowning dissatisfied with the apparent intentional dawdling of the man on his body.

"Call me the prince, brother, huh?" Feng Zhan's voice was hoarse and gloomy, and he continued to seduce Qin Yan.

"Brother Prince...ah..." Qin Yan didn't have the patience to deal with the man.

Feng Zhan's eyes were red, and his movements were suddenly violent.

Only Feng Zhan knew that when he was a child, when he occasionally heard Qin Yan softly calling Xie Changyuan "Brother Chang Yuan", the inexplicable jealousy in his heart.

And he would actually be jealous of Xie Changyuan!

But when Qin Yan saw him, Feng Yuyao was always quickly pulled away. Those two little girls always treated him like a flood of beasts.

Is he so scary?

And when Feng Zhan rescued Qin Yan in Taiye Pool, he waited in the East Palace for several days, waiting for the soft and glutinous dumpling to thank him, but in the end he only waited for the news that Qin Yan and Xie Changyuan were engaged.

After that, Feng Zhan refrained from focusing on that beautiful little dumpling, after all, she had already made a baby kiss with someone else.

Thinking about this, Feng Zhan's movements were even more fierce, but he slowed down quickly so as not to hurt the woman below him.

Smoke, smoke, lonely smoke...
