Chapter 430 Strange
After Li Jianzheng passed away, the arrangements for the prince's wedding went very smoothly.
With the little treasure of the confiscated family sitting in the seat, Tan Taimo said whatever he said, and basically no one dared to object.
Coming out of Yu's study, Tan Taimo said: "Nannan, come to the East Palace to sit for a while?"
Jian Ruonan stretched her lazy waist: "Okay."
Tan Taimo asked someone to prepare a sedan chair and carry her back to the East Palace. Jian Ruonan sat on the sedan chair, and Tan Taimo walked beside him. He signaled the palace servants to lift the sedan chair lower so that he could look at Jian Ruonan at eye level.
"I didn't expect that Li Jianzheng's prediction was based on a broken rheumatic arm."
Jian Ruonan turned her head and looked over: "How do you know?"
[How did that old Pei guy recommend his nephew, a chef who had old rheumatoid arthritis, to enter the Qintian Prison? ]
[The old emperor didn't find it outrageous? ! ]
Tan Tai Mo smiled and said nothing.
The truth can't be told, and it's not very polite to babble.
[Did the Jinyiwei investigate? ]
Tan Tai Mo: "The Jinyiwei doesn't know everything."
Jian Ruonan lowered her eyes. What happened today?
It feels like Xiao Si can immediately follow up on whatever she is thinking.
[Could he have deliberately made a mind-reading device to read my mind in order to pretend to understand me? ]
[It's terrifying to think about it! 】
Tan Tai Mo remained silent.
He couldn't say a word about what was in his heart.
"There are too many people who do nothing in the Qintian Eunuch position. Li Jianzheng can retire early." Tan Tai Mo said, "The court doesn't need people who do nothing." Jian
Ruonan nodded in agreement, "Let him find a doctor to take a good look at his rheumatoid hand."
~
The East Palace is located to the east of the Imperial Palace. Among the bright yellow buildings, the roof of the East Palace is green. This is not only where the prince lives, but also has many government offices, which is equivalent to a miniature court.
After a brief stroll, feeling somewhat bored, Dan Tai Mo suggested, "How about meeting the officials?"
Although the officials of the Eastern Palace have no real power now and rarely attend court, when the crown prince takes the throne, the officials of the Eastern Palace will follow the crown prince into the power center of the court.
Jian Ruonan nodded in agreement, saying that it would be nice to meet them just to get acquainted.
After a brief stroll, Jian Ruonan came to Zishan Hall.
In Zishan Hall, the officials of the Eastern Palace had already been waiting.
The officials of the Eastern Palace had long heard of Jian Ruonan's name. The fact that the crown prince had not married for a long time had always been a concern for the officials of the Eastern Palace. Now that he suddenly announced his marriage, the officials of the Eastern Palace were relieved, but the wedding date was so urgent that the officials could not guess what the crown prince was thinking. They thought that the crown princess was just someone the crown prince had casually found to please the officials.
Seeing the Crown Prince personally escorting Jian Ruonan to Zishan Hall, the officials understood at once: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince cherishes the future Crown Princess to a certain extent, and they need to observe more.
Tan Tai Mo introduced the officials of the Eastern Palace one by one.
"The Crown Prince's Horse Washer?" Jian Ruonan saw the official position and name on the list, and whispered: "Someone who specializes in washing your horses? How many horses do you wash a day?"
In ancient times, horses were equivalent to cars, and good horses were equivalent to luxury cars. There were special people to take care of them, and I didn't expect that there was a special position for this.
[The Crown Prince is particular! ]
[I wonder if you can wash the Crown Princess's horse by the way? ] Official of the Eastern Palace:? ? Beep beep beep - the future Crown Princess is so jumpy, she won't be broken off right after the engagement, right?
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very serious! In the eyes of the officials of the East Palace who were surprised, Tan Tai Mo explained in a gentle voice: "That's xianma, meaning that the prince drives first and doesn't wash the horse." Jian Ruonan smiled and said, "Oh, is that so? I thought a horse washer was specially arranged for you." Just like the rich second generation nowadays, there is a car washer at home. After Jian Ruonan met once, the officials of the East Palace finally knew why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had not married for a long time. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was usually cold-hearted, spoke softly in front of the Crown Princess, like a spring breeze, as if he had become a different person. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finally waited for this day, so he couldn't wait to get married in six days. Tan Tai Mo was a little worried that when the officials of the East Palace discussed matters in the future, when Nan Nan came, it would definitely be as lively as the afternoon court. I feel a little overwhelmed. ~ After visiting the East Palace, Tan Tai Mo sent Jian Ruonan back to the Jinyang Marquis' Mansion. Jian Ruonan saw his sticky eyes and waved him away, "Don't come today." Tan Tai Mo glanced at her, hesitant to speak, and finally said when he left, "Then I'll come again tomorrow." Jian Ruonan: "..." After dinner, Jian Ruonan took a walk by the lake, and the servant brought a pair of wild geese to her. "Fifth Miss, these are hunted by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself." A pair of fat wild geese, their feet were tied, tied with red silk, and their eyes were rolling. Wild geese are used as engagement tokens, which means living together until old age and loving couples. "His Royal Highness said that he didn't know if Miss Five was satisfied. If she was not satisfied, His Royal Highness would go hunting again." The servant held the wild geese: "This is a male and a female, just caught!" Jian Ruonan knew that there would be wild geese in the betrothal gift, but she didn't expect that the prince caught them himself. She was puzzled. It was less than two hours ago, and the movements were quite swift. Jian Ruonan rubbed the wild geese's head: "If you are satisfied, stay." The servant held the wild geese and left happily. After the servant left, the entire Jinyang Marquis's Mansion became busy, and the maids and servants came and went in a hurry. Jian Ruonan randomly grabbed someone and asked, "What are you doing?" The maids laughed and said, "The East Palace has sent the betrothal gifts!" Jian Ruonan returned to the courtyard and saw that the courtyard was full of gold, silver, silk, satin, wine, horses, sheep... The officials of the East Palace took the book and counted them one by one. Jian Ruonan: "Put it in other courtyards, there is no room here!" The servants asked, "Fifth Miss, which courtyard should it be put in?"
"I'll go ask mother." Jian Ruonan ran to Min's Xixiayuan, and the courtyard of Xixiayuan was also full of things, and there was no place to step.
Min saw her and asked the servants to make a way out: "Nannan, these are your dowry."
Jian Ruonan: "Mother, I have so much dowry?"
[I said before that I would not get married, and these dowries don't look like they were just prepared? 】
Min smiled and said, "Although you said you would not marry before, I still prepared a copy for you. If you do not marry, it is still yours and you can spend it at will. If you change your mind and want to get married, you don't have to panic."
Min looked happy and took a bag of snacks from the servant: "Go play somewhere else, don't disturb me."
Now Nan Nan is marrying the prince, and the dowry originally prepared is not enough, and more dowry is needed. The critical time is also urgent, and Min is busy.
Although it is a big event for Jian Ruonan, she can't help at all, and goes back to the yard to read the storybook.
As she was reading, Chen Pozi rushed into the room and knelt down in front of her.
"Fifth Miss, I want to trouble you with something."
Jian Ruonan: "Just tell me if you have something to say. Why are you kneeling?"
Mrs. Chen was sweating profusely: "My grandson is missing. His mother took him to the gathering today, but he disappeared when she turned her back. We have been looking for him for half a day. I am afraid he was caught by the beggars."
[You should report to the police if your child is missing. Why did you come to me for help?]
Mrs. Chen: "Even if the whole army of the Five Cities Military Department was dispatched, it would not be as accurate as the calculation by Miss Fifth."
Jian Ruonan lowered her head and closed her eyes.
Mrs. Chen was there when she was possessed by the Queen Mother for the first time. After that, when she was possessed by Yuanshi Tianzun and the God of Lightning, Mrs. Chen was the helper behind the scenes every time
she pretended to be a ghost. Why did he come to her when he knew she was pretending?
The matter was urgent, Jian Ruonan suppressed her doubts and quickly buried her head in searching.
