Chapter 380: These two mansions are all royal relatives
On the street.
After receiving the order, Minister of Works Xu personally led the craftsmen to the mansion opposite the Jiang Mansion.
For a moment, the area in front of Jiang Mansion became bustling.
The people gathered around, pointing and talking.
A middle-aged man knew Mr. Xu.
He looked at Lord Xu who was standing there giving orders, and secretly went forward to inquire about the news.
"Master Xu, why are you mobilizing so many troops... Could this be the residence of some high-ranking official?"
Upon hearing this, Lord Xu replied with a mysterious look on his face, "Hush, I'll tell you in secret, these two mansions were bestowed by the Emperor, and they are all royal relatives."
After saying this, he looked at the Jiang Mansion opposite and smiled evilly.
Alas, as soon as Jiang Qinian went out, he saw the words "Imperial Merchant". When he looked to the other side, he saw the words "Father-in-law of the State". He must have been so upset!
This is the retribution for despising the merchant’s wife and severing ties with his daughter!
The middle-aged man clasped his fists to express his gratitude to Lord Xu, and quietly returned to the crowd to gossip.
"I just asked, and these two mansions are owned by royal relatives."
"What, royal relatives?"
Everyone was discussing the matter of the royal family in low voices.
The moment a woman turned her head, she suddenly saw the words "Jiang Mansion".
"Hey, what do you think? If the master of the Jiang Mansion knew that there were royal relatives living across the street, would he be furious?"
"Who says he isn't? As long as he doesn't sever his relationship with the Empress, he's a royal relative."
"You don't know that Master Jiang spread rumors in the Imperial College, saying how much he loves the Empress's daughter..."
"Ah, bah! As soon as the Empress fell into trouble, he announced in the court that he had severed the father-daughter relationship."
"That's right, you deserve it!"
.......
Ah Ping heard the noise outside the house and looked curious.
He quietly walked to the corner and listened with his ears pricked up.
What the hell, royal relatives?
It’s not his master who is talking about it, is it?
I was afraid and secretly thought: It seems that the master's plan was successful.
That's great.
But as he listened, he felt something was wrong...
"This is the palace bestowed by the Emperor. After a while, we will know who these two royal relatives are."
"The Minister of Works is personally supervising the construction. He must be no ordinary person."
These words clearly entered Aping's ears, and he seemed to understand something.
The palace bestowed by the emperor?
These two royal relatives...could they be my uncle and my son-in-law?
After all, the emperor personally called the prince consort "father-in-law".
Thinking of this, Aping felt sick.
This was obviously causing trouble for his master.
Could it be that the Empress is trying to take revenge on the Master by whispering in the Emperor's ear...
Aping, who was squatting at the foot of the wall, was scratching his ears and cheeks anxiously.
No, go to the Imperial College and tell the master.
Knowing that there were many people gathered at the gate of the house, Aping hurried out of the back door.
.......
Jiang Ruo and Xiao Fenghuang sat in the carriage, admiring the street scenery.
"Sister, have you noticed that the dog man has become much more sensible recently?"
"You've always been very sensible!" Jiang Ruo picked up a bunch of grapes from the plate, picked one and handed it to Little Phoenix's mouth.
Little Phoenix shyly ate the grapes handed to her by Jiang Ruo and completely forgot about Xiao Chengjin.
At this moment, Aping, who was going to the Imperial College, was resting under a tree by the roadside after running tired.
When he accidentally saw Jiang Ruo in the carriage, he was slightly stunned.
The woman in the carriage seems to be the Queen?
No, I must be seeing things.
Woohoo, who would have thought that the inconspicuous young lady would be so lucky to become the queen.
Unfortunately, this great honor does not belong to the Jiang family...
With tears in his eyes, Aping looked in the direction of the Imperial College and ran towards it.
The carriage was driving slowly on the street, and when it was about to reach the street of the general's mansion, it suddenly stopped.
Jiang Ruo was just about to lift the car curtain to ask when she heard a sad voice: "Ruo Ruo, I miss you so much."
Little Phoenix: Why does it sound like a man's voice?
The next moment, Xiao Chengjin entered the carriage.
Jiang Ruo and Little Phoenix: “…”
Didn’t I tell you to handle your official business properly?
Why did you follow me?
"Have you finished your official business?" Little Phoenix looked at Xiao Chengjin with disdain and asked unhappily.
Xiao Chengjin turned a deaf ear and pushed the little phoenix leaning against Jiang Ruo aside.
"Ruoruo, I feel restless when you're not in the palace."
"I quickly finished my business... and then caught up with you."
Jiang Ruo held his forehead helplessly and complained secretly: What a distracted person.
"Xiaofeng and I came out to relax. It's not like we're going to run away and not return to the palace."
The little phoenix rolled his eyes and agreed proudly: "Sister is right. If we really want to run away, you can't stop us."
I will fly away with my sister...
Jiang Ruo smiled with her eyes curved when she heard what Xiao Fenghuang said.
You said this as if we were going to elope.
Xiao Chengjin looked at Xiao Fenghuang's smug look, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his lips. "Ruoruo, aren't you worried that Xiaofeng will be lonely?"
"I have asked Chief Steward Lin to select the most beautiful mate for it in the capital."
The little phoenix was immediately furious when he heard this.
"You bastard, I was the one who got married for you and your sister."
"I am a concubine after all, so please don't go too far."
You still want to drive me away? No way.
Seeing this, Jiang Ruo pulled Xiao Chengjin to the other side.
She sat next to Little Phoenix and comforted her, "Xiao Feng, don't get so excited for now."
"Sister thinks that in the long run, you still need a companion of the same kind."
"Maybe, you can even hatch two little phoenixes..." Jiang Ruo couldn't help laughing as he thought of the scene.
Little Phoenix snorted coldly, "Sister, do you think that just being a chicken... can lead you to the pinnacle of your life?"
"I tell you, it's impossible!"
It is the chosen chicken of God. Other chickens don’t have this fate.
Xiao Chengjin and Jiang Ruo looked at the arrogant little phoenix and burst into laughter.
Actually, it’s pretty good to have Xiaofeng around.
Laughter continued to emanate from the carriage, attracting the attention of passersby.
Xiao Chengjin stopped laughing and said jokingly, "Xiao Feng, I allow you to be Ruoruo's concubine."
"You're smart." Little Phoenix was harsh in words, but she was actually very happy in her heart.
Jiang Ruo raised her hands and hugged the man and the phoenix, "Hehe, I will live a life with handsome men on my left and beautiful women on my right."
Who is the real winner in life?
Of course it was Jiang Ruo.
