MTL - Transmigrated As Cannon Fodder To Marry-Chapter 19
Jiang Lin was not surprised when he heard the Queen's summoning, but had a feeling that he had come as expected.
The original body had hooked up with the prince, and said he liked the prince. The prince, who was so annoying, sent the original body to Wei Yunzhao in a blink of an eye. On the surface, it seemed that the problem was not big. Many people would say that Jiang Lin deserved it. Who made him Hooking up with Qin Mu Chu for three dynasties and being promiscuous is not a good thing anyway, this kind of guy who seduces men everywhere dares to miss the prince, it is kind of the prince not to get rid of him directly.
But only those involved know that the crown prince is lying. In order for Jiang Lin to marry Wei Yunzhao Chongxi instead of Jiang Jinyue, he deceived the emperor, and it was for a woman.
Although the crown prince is the son of the eldest son and the heir apparent, Emperor Changde is not the only son, and the crown prince is not the eldest son, and there is no precedent of abolishing the eldest son and establishing the eldest son in the Dayue Dynasty. The crown prince's position as the heir is not firm.
If at this time there is a scene where the prince commits the crime of deceiving the emperor for a woman and neglects the life and death of the courtiers, the other princes will never sit still, even if they can't directly trample the prince to death, they will never make it easier for him .
Jiang Lin knew that the queen summoned them to beat them.
The empress lives in Changning Palace, located in the middle of the harem, a veritable position in the middle palace.
It is not far from the Xuanzheng Hall, and it takes about a quarter of an hour to arrive.
The palace maid directly led the two of them into the door, and reported to the queen, "Your Majesty, General Wei and his wife have arrived."
When Jiang Lin and Wei Yunzhao arrived, the queen was lying on the couch, looking lazy.
But the first thing Jiang Lin noticed was the tiara on the queen's head, a set of luxurious and graceful but not tacky ruby headdress, exquisite workmanship, exquisite and beautiful style, the most important thing is that it suits the queen very well.
Looks young and has momentum.
Seeing them enter the door, the queen subconsciously raised her hand to touch her head when she stood up. Jiang Lin speculated that the queen should like this head mask very much and often wear it.
"Presumptuous! How dare you be disrespectful to the empress, and still kneel down and kowtow to plead guilty!"
Perhaps Jiang Lin's gaze stayed on the queen's head for too long, causing dissatisfaction, and the palace maid who led them in scolded.
Jiang Lin looked frightened, and knelt down as soon as his legs softened, "Xiaomin sees the empress, it is because the face on the empress's head is too attractive, Xiaomin was stunned for a while, please forgive me, empress." crime."
"Oh? Mrs. Wei has just married and started to study women's appearance. Could it be that she forgot that she is a man so quickly?"
It was still the big court lady who was talking, with a strange air of yin and yang.
"Qiu Xi, be bold, don't back down!"
This unruly behavior was only exchanged for a simple reprimand from the queen, and the court lady called Qiuxi took two steps back as if nothing had happened, and Jiang still dismissed it temporarily.
The queen acted as if she hadn't seen it, and asked Jiang Lin, "You are the first person to be dumbfounded by this palace's face, so tell me, what attracts you to this palace's face?"
That's what Jiang Lin waited for, and he smiled slightly, "The head and face are elegant and exquisite, both the workmanship and the materials are top-notch, and it suits the empress very well. At first, Xiaomin thought it looked good, but how much is it?" After looking at it for a few times, I felt that this face looked familiar, so I...please forgive me!"
Said half and left half, arousing speculation and curiosity, this is a realm.
As soon as she heard the familiar words, the queen's expression changed, and her eldest maid Qiu Xi stood up again, "Nonsense, this head mask is specially made by the most famous craftsman in Jiangnan, and it's the only one in the whole world. How familiar?"
Jiang Lin looked confused, "Is there only one set? But I've seen it in my mother's dowry, it's exactly the same as the set on the empress's head. It was stolen and sold by my stepmother later, I don't know where it went .”
The more Jiang Lin said, the darker the empress's face, and Jiang Lin looked more confused, "Don't you believe me? I have a dowry list. This set of masks is called Caiyu Feihong, and it was made by Lu Feishuang, a descendant of the Lu family in the south of the Yangtze River." , Xiaomin guarantees that everything is true, and the empress can ask someone to check it."
The queen's face was gloomy, and she raised her hand to Jiang Lin, "Get up." The queen obviously didn't want to bring up the important matter, so she changed the subject directly, "I called you here today, mainly to ask how is General Wei's injury, what do you want? When will it get better?"
Because of the appearance of the head, Wei Yunzhao has been ignored since he entered the door. He cupped his hands and saluted the queen, "I have seen you, thank you for your concern. I am afraid that my legs will not get better. I have already told the emperor. Now I am here No longer a general."
The queen stared at Wei Yunzhao for a moment, showing regret, and encouraged: "Master Wei is the pillar of the imperial court. When Mr. Wei's leg is healed, the emperor will definitely use Mr. Wei again. Mr. Wei should hurry up." stand up."
"Thank you, Ma'am, I will."
"Well, I have nothing else to do in the Palace, so you can step back first." The queen waved her hand, as if I was tired.
Wei Yunzhao saluted and resigned, but Jiang Lin looked unwilling and muttered in a low voice, "Why doesn't your mother believe me? My mother's dowry really has a set of exactly the same face, I've seen it before."
It was a low voice, but the hall was so quiet that everyone present could actually hear it.
Wei Yunzhao even took his hand to signal him not to talk, but Jiang Lin made a stubborn mistake and said to himself: "No, I will go to Anyang Hou's Mansion to ask when I get back, did that woman secretly steal my mother's dowry?" Who sold it to, if she doesn't come back and return it to me, I will invite my grandfather and uncle to Shengjing, and I want to see how rampant that woman is!"
As Jiang Lin said, he hurriedly saluted the Queen, and then pushed Wei Yunzhao away, looking very eager.
As soon as Jiang Lin turned around, the queen's face turned cold.
The palace maid Qiu Xi was still fanning the flames, "This Jiang Lin is too ignorant of flattery, how dare she say such things in front of the empress, she really doesn't take her seriously."
The queen got up and walked straight to the bronze mirror, and ordered the maid to take off her head, and then ordered Qiu Xi: "Go and ask Mrs. Zhao, where did this head come from? If it is really stolen from someone else's dowry, then return it." , I can't afford to lose this face."
Qiu Xi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly followed, "Your Majesty, you love this face so much, do you really want to return it?"
No need to ask, Qiu Xi can guess that Jiang Lin's words are not false, that woman Zhao Qiuru must have stolen the dowry of Anyang Hou's deceased wife, and then gave it to the queen as a birthday gift.
When the empress saw this face, she liked it very much. She also rewarded Zhao Qiuru with a lot of things, which also made Zhao Qiuru show off a lot of limelight. Even the queen didn't expect that this head was actually stolen from a dead man's dowry.
The queen couldn't hold back her breath, and with a wave of her hand, she threw all the things on the table to the ground, "What a Marquis of Anyang, who opposed me one by one, and dared to give the things used by the dead to me as pawns!" Birthday congratulations, I really underestimated this family."
The queen's eyes became more and more stern, "Qiu Xi, go and help me with something."
Qiu Xi leaned over and heard the queen say something in her ear. Qiu Xi's heart skipped a beat, but she didn't show it on her face, "Your maidservant will go now."
Qiu Xi held the queen's head that had just been taken off, turned around and left the door, and the queen felt much better when she thought of what she had ordered Qiu Xi to do. Bengong wants to see if you dare to accept it if I give it to you."
Speaking of land, she hated Jiang Lin even more for not knowing how to flatter her, so she insisted on speaking out.
…
On the other side, Jiang Lin and Wei Yunzhao breathed a sigh of relief when they got out of the palace and got into the carriage. They didn't say a word on the road from Changning Palace to the gate of the palace.
The main reason is that they dare not, the emperor does not want them well, neither does the empress, and there is someone hiding somewhere who wants to eavesdrop on them.
After the carriage walked for a while, Wei Yunzhao spoke first, "Is the headgear worn by the empress today really a relic of your mother?"
Jiang Lin nodded, "Yes, I saw it when I was a child. The people who married my mother to the Marquis of Anyang are still there. I have seen everything in my mother's dowry."
In the first few years when Zhao Qiuru came in, she didn't rely enough, and she wasn't so courageous. Yun Wanyan's dowry was managed by her dowry, and Zhao Qiuru couldn't get it.
Mammy is a foresighted person, and since the original body can remember, she has often taken him to see his mother's dowry, and asked him to remember them one by one, and made two copies of the dowry list, so he should keep an eye on it.
Later, after Zhao Qiuru's eldest son entered the palace and became the prince's companion, Zhao Qiuru had enough confidence. She drove away the members of the Yun family who married to the Hou's mansion, and Yun Wanyan's dowry fell into her hands, and then she became Zhao Qiuru' own' dowry.
Yuanshen cared far less about his mother's dowry than he did to gain attention from the Anyang Marquis Mansion, so he naturally didn't know what happened to the dowry.
Jiang Lin pursed his lips and smiled mockingly, "No wonder there is no movement when the seven-day period is up. It turns out that I have given away a big shot. I don't think I dare to make trouble with her."
"But she never thought, would these big shots be willing to accompany her to lose face?"
The stolen things will have to be returned sooner or later. Today, the queen forgot about beating him because of her face, which shows that sometimes a person's face is much more important than money.
Wei Yunzhao asked, "Should we go now or tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow," Jiang Lin said, "I have to go back and prepare generous gifts to honor them." He had to think carefully about what to give.
"Okay, I'll accompany you tomorrow," Wei Yunzhao said gently.
Jiang Lin smiled, his brows and eyes curved, "Okay, I will invite Master Wei to watch a good show tomorrow."
After returning to Wei's house, Wei Yunzhao is going to discuss matters with Mrs. Wei and others. From now on, Wei's house can no longer be called the General's Mansion, but can only be changed to Wei's Mansion.
Jiang Lin didn't want to look at those faces, so he went straight back to Zhaoyun Garden.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Jiang Lin saw Wei Yunjia leading Wei Yunqi waiting for them in the pavilion. Seeing Jiang Lin came back, Wei Yunjia hurried over and handed an invitation to Jiang Lin, "Qinghe County King's Mansion For the flower banquet, please go with me and sister-in-law."
Jiang Lin flipped through the invitation, and saw a name that caught his eye, Jiang Rou.
This is really a pillow when you are sleepy. The Jiang family is related to the Anyang Marquis Mansion, and the invitation was specially sent to him. Jiang Lin knew it was Jiang Jinyue's handwriting at a glance.
He was so happy, Jiang Lin immediately called Chang An, "I'm looking for someone, I want all the musicians and beggars last time, and let them go to Qinghe County Prince's Mansion tomorrow."
Jiang Lin ran into the door again, and wrote a sentence on the paper, "Let them master this memorization and develop a sense of rhythm. The effect is good, and I will reward you a lot."
Wei Yunjia didn't know what Jiang Lin was going to do, so she went over to look at the contents of the paper out of curiosity, and saw that it said: Jiang Jinyue, ask your mother to come out and pay back the money!
The author has something to say: Going home on National Day, the stupid author carried the suitcase, went up and down the stairs, turned the subway car to the bus, and successfully strained his muscles...
So it's a bit late, everyone forgive me, it will be normal tomorrow, okay~
