The four hundred and twentieth chapter proposes to the emperor

At this time, Eunuch Li brought Liu Ruobing and Song Yuner in. When they saw Yang Qiuchi sitting there, they both breathed a sigh of relief. After kowtowing to Ming Chengzu, they sat on Feng Xiaoxue's lower head.

Ming Chengzu was holding a glass of wine to drink, but suddenly he saw Liu Ruobing and was stunned, staring at him and forgot to drink the glass of wine.

Liu Ruobing frowned slightly and snorted coldly. Yang Qiuchi was worried that she would be angry and asked her to eat. Liu Ruobing smiled and nodded at Yang Qiuchi.

Liu Ruobing's smile almost hooked away all the three souls of Ming Chengzu. It was not until Concubine Wang coughed gently that Ming Chengzu reacted, smiled concealedly, drank the wine in a glass of wine in one gulp. He raised his hand and pointed at Liu Ruobing, and asked, "Yang Aiqing, this person is..."

"This is the fourth concubine of Wei, his surname is Liu." Yang Qiuchi also saw the beauty of Ming Chengzu Fu Zhu, who was still sad and dead just now, and is now coveting other beauty.

Then he thought that the emperor ruled the world but dared to do anything. Since ancient times, it was not uncommon for the emperor to steal ministers or even his sons’ wives and concubines. The emperor could not make him think of Liu Ruobing, coughed a moment, and turned his head to deliberately ask Liu Ruobing: "Bing'er, did you feed our son when you came?"

Liu Ruobing didn't know why Yang Qiuchi suddenly asked about this, her pretty face turned red and she whispered: "Hey..."

Sure enough, Ming Chengzu was slightly stunned and a little embarrassed, and asked, "Did Yang Aiqing be happy to have a noble son?"

"Yes," Yang Qiuchi said with a bow. "The fourth concubine, Liu, has just given birth to a son for Weichen. This is Weichen's eldest son."

"Oh?" Ming Chengzu turned his head and looked at the dark spots on Feng Xiaoxue's face, then looked at Liu Ruobing and Song Yuner, and smiled and said, "Yang Aiqing, your concubines are more beautiful than the other. Now you have given birth to a son. Don't forget your wife."

Yang Qiuchi hurriedly bowed and smiled, "I dare not, I must remember the emperor's teachings."

Song Yuner is still young and is a fearless master. She couldn't help but say, "My brother has never forgotten Sister Xiaoxue. When Mr. Bai Qian forced him to divorce his wife and marry Mr. Bai Qian's daughter, my brother flatly rejected him."

"Your brother?" Ming Chengzu didn't understand who this title was referring to.

Yang Qiuchi quickly explained: "The Song family, the five concubines of Weichen, used to be called Weichen brothers and sisters, but later married Weichen, but this title has not been changed."

Only then did Ming Chengzu understand. He smiled and asked Song Yuner with interest: "What you said just now is that your brother refused to force a marriage. What's going on?"

Song Yuner said the matter again. During the narrative process, she inevitably added fuel to the fire and portrayed Yang Qiuchi as if she was a love saint. Yang Qiuchi and Feng Xiaoxue blushed and embarrassed.

After Song Yuner finished speaking, Ming Chengzu praised: "I didn't expect that Yang Aiqing is also a person who values ​​feelings so much. OK. I admire him very much. Come on, I would like to pay a cup of respect to you and your wife for this!"

Yang Qiuchi and Feng Xiaoxue hurriedly picked up their glasses and stood up, bowed to thank them, and drank the wine in the glass.

Since entering the Imperial Garden, Yang's mother has been thinking about how to propose marriage. The Yang family is now the best Zhenyuan Marquis. It is considered a good match to marry a princess, but she asked the princess to be a concubine for her son, and Yang's mother was a peasant woman. In the past, she was so scared that she was not good at speaking when she saw Magistrate Song, but now she asked her to propose marriage to the emperor. When she thought of this, Yang's mother's tongue was knotted and she kept thinking about how to speak.

Ming Chengzu also found that Yang's mother had not spoken and was sitting there trembling. He knew that she was nervous and couldn't help but smile: "Madam, you always have a drink...Madam...?"

Feng Xiaoxue squinted her eyes and saw that Yang's mother was still distracted and thought about her worries. She didn't hear the emperor's words. She quickly pushed Yang's mother under the table and whispered: "Mom, the emperor is calling you."

Yang's mother then realized: "Hmm? What?"

Feng Xiaoxue's face turned red and she said again. When Yang's mother heard the emperor talking to her, she panicked. She picked up a glass of wine and stood up, trembling and said, "Emperor..., Princess Yunlu... Our son... concubine... okay?"

Ming Chengzu was stunned and didn't hear what Yang's mother said clearly. In fact, even if he was careful, he couldn't hear it. Because Yang's mother was nervous, she didn't say the whole thing at all.

Yunlu had already understood it, her face flushed with shame, lowered her head and did not speak, but her ears were standing still. But after hearing Yang's mother talked for a long time, she couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

Seeing that Yang's mother was so nervous that her face turned pale, her glass of wine in her hand shivered and spilled over halfway, she smiled slightly: "Madam, don't worry, drink the wine first and talk slowly."

Feng Xiaoxue stood up, supported the old lady, stabilized her arm and comforted her softly: "Mom, the emperor asked you to drink first, and then say slowly, don't worry."

After hearing this, Yang's mother quickly picked up the glass of wine and poured it into her mouth. In fact, the wine in the glass had almost spilled.

After drinking the remaining half of the glass of wine in the quilt, Yang's mother sat down slowly, took a breath and said, "Master,

Old Man… Old Man wants to ask the emperor for a kiss…”

Ming Chengzu smiled and said, "Okay, Madam, my Princess Xianning is not married yet." He turned around and pulled Yun Ludi's arm, "I also have Princess Qingxi, but I am not married, who will Madam propose marriage to? Let's hear it?"

When Yang's mother heard that Chengzu Ming talked about Yunlu, she was delighted. Her tongue finally slipped away and said, "I want to propose marriage for Princess Qingxi Yunlu."

"Oh, okay, who is the young master from the house?"

"Old son...I want to propose marriage for my son."

"Ah?" Ming Chengzu was stunned, and the smile on his face slowly disappeared, "Madam, how many sons do you have?"

Yang's mother took Yang Qiuchi's hand and smiled and said, "It's just... this one."

Ming Chengzu's face turned mute: "Didn't the grandma want me to marry Princess Qingxi to Yang Aiqing as a concubine?"

Yang's mother also heard that the land of the Ming Chengzu was unhappy and was frightened, but as soon as she said that she had to explain it clearly, she shrank timidly: "Princess Yunlu... likes our Qiuchi..., she has been getting better before... so she is old..."

Ming Chengzu looked at Yunlu: "Lu'er, is Yang Aiqing the one you said you liked?"

Yunlu nodded with a blushing face. She also heard that the land of Ming Chengzu was unhappy. She thought about it and plucked up the courage and said, "Father, when I was in Qingxi County, my father intended to marry his daughter to Brother Qiuchi as his concubine..."

"Then are you married?" Ming Chengzu said coldly.

"without……"

"That's it. Yang Aiqing was young and promising. It was originally a good marriage, but Yang Aiqing also had an original wife. He would rather die than divorce his wife. I respect him very much. Since that is the case, you can't marry Yang Aiqing as your wife again. As for the concubine - do you think it's appropriate for the princess to be a concubine?"

"Father..."

Ming Chengzu waved his hand and interrupted Yun Lu's words: "Okay, don't mention this matter again. My father is a little tired, so go back first." He stood up, lowered his head and saw Yun Lu's pitiful tears hanging down, and patted her on the shoulder, "Lu'er, you don't have to worry about your marriage, the father will arrange it for you."

Ming Chengzu didn't look at Yang Qiuchi and the others, and walked in a row with his hands behind his back. Concubine Wang and other concubines apologized to Yang Qiuchi and others, then followed behind and left. When Mei Meiren left, she glanced at Yang Qiuchi deeply. Her speaking eyes were full of softness, making people feel infinitely loving.

Only Yang Qiuchi's family was left in the field. Look at me, and I look at you, and I was stunned.

Yunlu slapped on the table and burst into tears.

…………

The next day, Yang Qiuchi discussed with Yang's mother, Feng Xiaoxue and Song Qing, decided to entrust Song Qing's mother, Mrs. Song to Wuchang to handle Huguang's business. He wrote a letter to Song Qing's mother, and then asked Xia Ping to take the female guard to Ningguo Mansion first, pick up Song Qing's mother and escort to Wuchang, and then took Qin Zhihui, Song Qing and Bai Sumei and her daughter back.

Then, he took Master Jin and Master Long to take office at the Yingtian Prefecture Office, accepting congratulations from all the assistants, and then asked the two masters to handle the money, materials, files, etc. After handing over the government affairs of the yamen to the two masters, Yang Qiuchi took office at the Tongzhi Yamen of the North Fufu Department of Jinyiwei, officially met with the commander Ji Gang, and then returned to the Yang Mansion.

After Yang Qiuchi called Song Yuner, he roughly told Song Yuner about the case assigned by the emperor. When Song Yuner heard that the case investigated this time was actually the bizarre death case of the emperor's favorite concubine, she was very excited, but she was also very nervous. The case involving the royal family was not that simple. I don't know who it would involve. However, the emperor was behind the scenes this time, so there was no need to worry.

Yang Qiuchi has already made a preliminary plan for how to solve the problem. He first investigated and found out the situation at that time, and knew it. Then he went to Lincheng, Shandong to open a coffin and examine the autopsy to determine whether the nature of the death was suicide, an accident or a homicide. Based on the nature of the case, he made plans for the next step.

Since she has become the Tongzhi of the Jinyiwei, her identity as the Tongzhi of the Jinyiwei has been made public. Yang Qiuchi put on the Tongzhi of the Jinyiwei, asked Nangong Xiong and other six personal guards to pass on the flying fish suit, and took Song Yuner to the palace to investigate the case.

Since the emperor had issued an order that Yang Qiuchi could enter the palace at any time, so without any obstacles, Yang Qiuchi and others entered the palace and found the female official Wang Sicai.

Wang Sicai is in his twenties and is a bit handsome (in order to avoid scaring the emperor, this palace prevents dinosaur-level ugly girls from entering the palace), giving people a very capable feeling.

When Wang Sicai heard that the Jinyiwei was looking for him, he was immediately frightened. Since the Yongle period of Zhu Di in the Ming Dynasty, Jinyiwei and later the East Factory and the West Factory were both nouns that could make people frightened at night.
