Chapter 384 Will Chuan Gu win or Zhu Feng win?
"A few years ago, Jiamin gave me some strange stories. One of the stories was about a poor scholar marrying a rich lady."
"He kept saying that he was good to the rich girl and was even willing to do anything for her."
"Including bearing the pain of childbirth on her behalf."
"But on the day when the rich lady was about to give birth, a thunderclap suddenly sounded in the sky, and the poor scholar actually exchanged souls with the rich lady."
"It was then that the rich lady realized that the poor scholar had been lying to her."
Qin Jingyu: “…”
Seeing his expression change, Lin Qingning covered her mouth and laughed, "It's just a strange novel, don't take it seriously."
Qin Jingyu sighed and held her slightly cold fingertips, "I hope it's true."
Qin Jingyu felt very scared when he thought about what happened on the day she gave birth.
Not to mention, even after raising it for so long, her fingertips are still cold.
Thinking of this, Qin Jingyu put her hand on his chest and covered it.
Lin Qingning's cheeks were hot, "Jing Yu, it's still daytime, and there are other people here."
Banxia decisively pulled the two palace maids who had not reacted, hurried out, and then considerately closed the door.
Lin Qingning: “…”
After Banxia came out, the other two palace maids finally reacted and thanked her.
"Thank you, Sister Banxia, for your quick reaction just now. Otherwise, the masters would blame us."
Banxia smiled and said, "Okay, okay. Just be smarter next time."
"yes."
In the blink of an eye, I have become a sister.
Banxia was still thinking about when she accompanied her master in the Guangping Marquis Mansion, she lived under someone else's roof and had a hard time.
Nowadays, wherever she goes, she is admired and respected.
It’s really a different feeling.
Banxia took a few steps and was suddenly hit in the face by a snowball. All her good mood disappeared instantly.
"Who's there?"
A green shadow flashed behind the rockery.
Banxia immediately said angrily: "Zhufeng, you have the guts to hit me, but don't you have the guts to come out and admit it?"
After a while, Zhufeng, wearing a short blue shirt, came over from behind the rockery with a smile on his face.
"Sister Banxia, how did you know it was me?"
Banxia: "Oh, even if you turn into ashes, I will still recognize you!"
Zhu Feng: "So sister Ban Xia cares so much about me that you can even recognize my gray? Is he more handsome than other people's gray?"
Banxia: "Don't even mention the grayness, just your cheekiness is pretty unparalleled!"
Zhu Feng: "Sister Banxia, do you admit that I am handsome?"
Banxia's mouth twitched and she didn't want to talk to this shameless thing anymore.
But after walking a few steps, a box suddenly appeared in front of him.
Banxia: “What is this?”
Zhu Feng: "This is a red hairpin made of agate that is unique to southern Xinjiang. It is very beautiful. I think you have no experience and have definitely never seen it. I will give you some advice."
After he finished speaking, he stuffed the thing into Banxia's hand, turned around and flew away.
Banxia said depressedly: "Is there something wrong with this person? He gives someone something and he still makes fun of it?"
She opened the box mumbling something, and then her eyes froze for a moment.
This red hairpin is so beautiful!
Not only is the shape unique, but the agate on the hairpin comes in many colors, which is extremely gorgeous.
Banxia has lived for nineteen years, but has never owned such a gorgeous red hairpin!
Her ears felt slightly hot, and she snorted coldly: "Since this red hairpin is so beautiful, I forgive you for your careless words!"
I watched her lips slightly raised, her face full of smiles, as she slowly walked away holding the red hairpin.
Zhufeng, who was hiding not far away, also smiled, as if he could hang two jugs of wine on his lips.
Su Ziyuan: "If you encounter something happy, share it with us and make us happy too."
Zhu Feng was startled when he suddenly heard Su Ziyuan's voice.
He quickly turned around and found Su Ziyuan standing behind him. He didn't know how long he had been there.
The most important thing is that there were several secret guards squatting on the tree behind Su Ziyuan, also staring at Zhufeng intently.
Wind Chaser: ...
I was careless. Why are there so many people watching?
But when he thought of Banxia's smile just now, he became very proud again, "Anyway, it's a good thing. I can't tell you guys who don't have wives."
Secret guards: "..." (ˉ▽￣～) Tsk~~
Su Ziyuan said gently, "Are you talking about Miss Banxia? I heard that Chuan Gu has asked the masters to marry Banxia, so you are also single like us."
Zhu Feng: “!!!!”
“Is this true or false?”
Su Ziyuan: "How dare I make up rumors about the masters' affairs? They must have known about it."
Zhu Feng gritted his teeth and said, "Chuan Gu, that brat, actually dared to take advantage of my absence from the capital and get close to me!"
He didn't have time to deal with Su Ziyuan and the others, so he quickly turned around and went to look for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Su Ziyuan raised his lips slightly, "Brothers, do you think it will be Chuan Gu or Zhu Feng who will win the beauty in the end? Come on, place your bets."
"I'm Oshikawatani."
"No, I bet on Zhufeng. Chuan Gu doesn't know martial arts."
"But Chuan Gu will take care of his family better than Zhu Feng"
…
Council Hall.
Qin Jingyu was asking the various managers how preparations for New Year-related matters were going.
As for the Crown Princess's confinement, the Crown Prince was in charge of all the chores in the backyard, and no one in the entire Eastern Palace had any objection.
Aunt Chen and Granny Liao were both elderly people who came from the old mansion, but Aunt Qi, who had just arrived this year, asked an extra question:
"Your Highness, do you not have to go to the palace on New Year's Eve and the first day of the new year?"
In previous years, we had to go to the palace, and since it was the New Year’s Eve banquet, there were more things to prepare.
Sometimes, the Crown Princess even had to help the Queen and host the New Year's Eve banquet in the palace.
Qin Jingyu shook his head, "My father said that this year we won't waste money and manpower, and each family can celebrate the New Year at home."
"But this year's annual banquet will be prepared later. In addition to me and the Crown Princess, Captain Lin, as well as my father, the Emperor, and my mother, the Empress, will also be there."
Everyone else knew that Emperor Minghe and Empress Jiang secretly went to the old palace last year.
So after hearing it, everyone got used to it.
However, after hearing this, Nanny Qi was shocked and once again realized how much His Majesty cares about the Crown Prince!
They are willing to break the rules many times for him!
Everyone reported their affairs one after another and left.
Su Ziyuan arrived late and ended up talking about some of the upper bunks under the name of the Eastern Palace.
Qin Jingyu: "The properties under the Crown Princess' name are all managed by Grandma Liao's adopted son, Liao Qi, right?"
Su Ziyuan: "Yes, Your Highness."
Qin Jingyu: "It's not appropriate for us to interfere with the Crown Princess's business, but you can tell him that if he encounters any trouble, you can solve it directly. The Crown Princess is recuperating during this period, so don't alarm her because of trivial matters."
Su Ziyuan: "I have written it down."
As the two were talking, Qin Jingyu noticed a head swaying outside the window.
He frowned, "What is Zhufeng going to do?"
Su Ziyuan smiled and said, "He wants to get married."
Qin Jingyu frowned, "Let him in."
Just now, the stewards were reporting something to the prince. Zhufeng didn't dare to disturb them, but he was worried that Chuan Gu would get there first, so he just squatted at the door.
Now that he was called in, facing the prince, he blushed and hesitant.
Qin Jingyu: "If you have something to say, then say it. If not, I have an errand for you to go to Saibei."
After hearing this, Zhufeng immediately knelt down.
Can’t leave!
If he left at this time and went to Saibei, when he completed his mission and came back, Zhufeng and Banxia would probably be married and have a child...
"Master, I, your subordinate, want to marry Miss Banxia!"
Qin Jingyu: “That’s it?”
Zhu Feng raised his head and said eagerly, "Master, I am already in my twenties, and it is time for me to start a family and a career. I have been in love with Miss Banxia for a long time, and I hope that you can help me!"
Qin Jingyu shook his head. "I have no say in this matter. Banxia has been with An Ning for many years and is a very important person to her. She has to decide on this matter."
Zhu Feng: "Please help me put in some good words, Master!"
Qin Jingyu nodded.
If both of them can succeed, it would be a good thing.
That night, Qin Jingyu told Lin Qingning about this matter, and Lin Qingning smiled and said:
"Chuan Gu also came to me before, and I told Ban Xia about it, and she said she had no plans to get married for the time being."
"What a coincidence! Now Zhufeng has also asked for it."
Qin Jingyu: "I didn't expect that Chuan Gu also had this idea. But you decide this matter."
Lin Qingning: "Let me ask Banxia what she thinks."
Qin Jingyu no longer cared about this matter, but asked about Lin Qingning's physical condition.
"How does the wound feel today?"
In fact, the wound hurts at first, and then slowly starts to itch.
Because I'm starting to gain weight.
It's always uncomfortable.
Lin Qingning always said, "It's getting better slowly, don't worry."
She is now enjoying the highest treatment in Da Chu. It is estimated that even Emperor Minghe's daily diet is not as exquisite as hers.
She was a very pain-resistant and patient person.
Qin Jingyu took her hand, placed it on his lips and kissed it, "A Ning, you can tell me about any pain or unhappiness in the future."
"Don't endure that alone."
"With me here, you don't have to be so strong. Show some weakness. My shoulder will always be there for you to lean on."
"You have family now. Lots of family."
Lin Qingning looked gentle and nodded.
**
In the blink of an eye, it is New Year’s Eve.
Inside the palace, there were fewer people than in previous years and there was no New Year's Eve banquet, so it felt even lonelier.
Inside the Cining Palace, the empress dowager sat at a round table and looked at Emperor Minghe and Empress Jiang beside her.
She was still feeling proud.
You see, as long as the emperor doesn’t know about that incident, he can only let bygones be bygones for anything else.
After the New Year, when Sun Fuhai was released, she could take him back to the royal temple to bide her time.
After all, she is the emperor's biological mother and the empress dowager of the Great Chu!
However, the Queen Mother was proud for a while and felt something was wrong.
Although there is no New Year's Eve banquet this year, and even the royal family members do not have to come to the palace, why are there only her and the emperor and empress?
The Queen Mother frowned, "Why haven't the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess come yet?"
