Chapter 178.
by Jessie@AFNCCNot staying in the Second Princess’ residence for too long, Xu Qi’an had to patrol the streets in the afternoon, so he excused himself and left.
Mounted Fascination raised an eyebrow, “Xu Ningyan, I can speak to Father and let you take up a position in the palace as this palace’s guard.”
What’s the future of being your guard? You still really want me to be a cow and a horse …. Xu Qi’an said helplessly, “Your Highness, humble servant still has some ambition.”
Obviously, working as a cow or horse for the princess was not as promising as serving Wei Yuan. Emperor Yuan Jing favored framed, in addition to her will make a mess will be pampered, another is that she is naive and lovely, no heart.
Princess Huaiqing like this, want to support the heart of the people to the throne, you have to find the time, such as the case of Sangpo. The same is true for other princes.
After framing and begging Emperor Yuan Jing to absolve him of his death penalty to no avail, Xu Qi An saw through Emperor Yuan Jing as a person.
“Second Princess, why are you so bitter, humble servant is just a small night watchman.” Xu Qi Min said, “We are not suitable.
“No one else is as funny as you, talking to me with trepidation.” Prosper pouted and wiggled her feet:
“I don’t love to read, I can’t do anything with qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, and I’m bored to death in the palace. When I was young, the crown prince’s brother would still play with me, and now whenever I go to him, he frowns and always says that there are serious matters.”
What a poor princess, canaries are generally raised in gorgeous cages…but isn’t Princess Huaiqing free to come and go …. Xu Qi’an thought about it and then figured it out.
Huaiqing was the kind of strong woman who could fight the world on her own if she was given 3,000 soldiers and horses, and was rich in knowledge and ability. Among Emperor Yuan Jing’s children, there was hardly any one who could match Huaiqing’s talent and skill.
Lin An was different, she was a bratty and capricious little princess with no heart, easily deceived by wolves.
Xu Qi’an automatically took himself out of the list of “wolves”.
“This is actually simple, the princess will just move back to her own residence. The Imperial City is always more interesting than the Palace City.” Xu Qi’an said.
Lin An was a princess with a title and had her own residence in the Imperial City.
“Then come and meet me at the Linn House tomorrow.” Framed said.
Princess Lin’an rushed to lunch before the sedan chair arrived at the Jingxiu Palace, Chen Guifei today sent someone to notify a pair of children, inviting them to come to the Jingxiu Palace to have dinner.
During the meal, the Crown Prince ate the delicacies carefully prepared by Noble Consort Chen and suddenly said, “Listening to the pawns in the palace breaking their mouths, Wei Yuan sent the Empress a secret formula that cured her anorexia.”
Noble Consort Chen smiled, “There is such a thing, it seems to be called… chicken essence? I’ve heard that if you add a small amount when cooking vegetables, the flavor will be unforgettable.”
The crown prince could see Chen Guifei’s desire, “If mother consort tastes it, child will go ask the empress for some.”
Noble Consort Chen laughed, “I heard that Princess Huaiqing went to ask for it, but the Empress didn’t even give it.”
Mother and son were at once helpless.
Princess Linan looked at her mother and brother and begged, “Is it called chicken essence.”
The Prince looked to her, “You heard about it too?”
The heartless Lin An didn’t have the time to pay attention to the news of the harem, shaking his head, he said, “Today Xu Ning Banquet gave me something called Chicken Essence.”
She summoned her maid and said, “Go back to the palace and fetch it for me.”
A quarter of an hour later, the maid returned panting, bringing back the porcelain vase that had been left in the mansion.
His Royal Highness snatched the porcelain bottle, peeled off the wooden cork, smelled, smelled a slightly pungent fresh flavor, smell alone, experience not the magic of this thing.
“Have the cookhouse reheat these dishes, add this…chicken essence, and let’s taste the flavor?”
The Prince’s proposal was approved by his mother and sister.
Not long after, the palace maid returned with hot dishes, the mother and son three did not move their chopsticks, but looked at the palace maid.
The palace maid first used a silver needle to try the poison, and then fetched the bowls and chopsticks and tried them one by one, and after all the dishes were eaten, the crown prince saw that there was obviously some unfulfilled desire in her eyes, but she didn’t dare to eat more, and stared fondly at the meal.
After waiting for a few more moments and seeing that the palace maid was unharmed, the Crown Prince urged, “Give this Palace a bowl of turtle soup.”
The courtesan said with a smile as she served the soup, “Your Highness has a good eye, this soup has an unforgettable fresh flavor.”
The Crown Prince couldn’t wait to take it, tasted it, and praised, “There is a different flavor…Mother Consort, Lin An, you guys taste it, quickly taste it.”
Chen Guifei hadn’t seen the Crown Prince this cheerful for a long time and was happy in her heart.
Linan had long since taken matters into her own hands, and instead of eating the turtle soup, she took a bite of the veggies, chewed and chewed, and unconsciously took a second and third bite ….
After eating lunch, for a long time I have not seen children this happy eating Chen Guifei, the heart is very happy.
“Good stuff, just this tiny bottle …. How much energy must the Imperial Cuisine’s cooks expend to reach it.” His Highness the Crown Prince sighed with emotion, not moving as he put the bottle away in his sleeve.
Framed with wide eyes, he pounced over and tugged the Crown Prince’s sleeve with a deadly grip, his willow eyebrows raised, “Mine!”
“Isn’t that Xu Qi’an your man, you can just ask him for it again.” His Royal Highness righteously said, “Let go.”
“I’m not letting go, it’s mine.”
The siblings argued, looking for Chen Guifei reasoning, Chen Guifei and angry and funny: “How much of a person, still like a child. To mother consort said ah, just stay in mother consort, only fair.”
“…..” The Prince and Protoan twisted back around and continued to argue.
…..
“So what Xu Ningyan gave me was so valuable.” Framed sat in the sedan chair, playing with the porcelain bottle with only a third of the chicken essence left.
Her little bit of dissatisfaction with Xu Qi’an gradually dissipated, she is not really stupid, Xu Qi’an took advantage of her, she just turned a blind eye.
Because if we don’t get him, this gong will turn his head into the embrace of Huaiqing, and he speaks well, and can play, Linan is quite reluctant to give up. Some useless calligraphy and paintings and silver, give then give.
This little gong is very slippery on both sides, I have to go to confirm it …. Linan immediately said, “Turn to Huaiqing there.”
Arriving at Princess Huaiqing’s palace court, ignoring the guards to stop him, Lin An held his snow-white jaw high and met the obnoxious Huaiqing in the antechamber.
The two princesses with outstanding face value crossed paths, and Huaiqing’s delicate eyebrows frowned on her plain white pretty face, “What are you doing here.”
“I’ve heard that Wei Yuan sent Mother’s secret recipe to cure her anorexia, it’s all over the palace.” Lin An walked over to the side of the Bo Gu Shelf, her red skirt trailing as she played with the blue and white vase while casually saying:
“Does Sister Huaiqing have it here?”
“No.” Huaiqing said faintly.
“Really no?” Prosper twisted her head around, her eyes shining brightly, and the word “stupid” written on her charming googly-eyed face.
Princess Huaiqing stared at her and faintly said, “What’s the point of lying to you.”
“I’m relieved that you don’t have it,” Lingan, no, framed pulled out the porcelain vase, shook it cheerfully and laughed, “I do!”
“….”
She was even happier when she saw Huaiqing’s face was not right, but in order to avoid getting beaten up, she saw the good thing and twisted her little waist and left after pretending:
“This palace is leaving without seeing me off. Oh, by the way, this is a gift from Xu Ning Banquet to this palace.”
Xu Ning Banquet …. Princess Huaiqing’s bare forehead, veins bulged.
….
The next day, after lunch at the Hooker, the Hooker trio flossed their teeth and returned to the Yamen with a six-footed stride.
There was a half hour break at noon, and the three of them planned to go back to the Yamen to exhale, today was still Xu Qi’an’s treat, but this time it was purely listening to music and eating, nothing else. The martial artist’s family didn’t have that much left over.
White whoring Xu Ning Banquet a few days, Song Tingfeng a little embarrassed, saw the roadside stall to buy oranges, said:
“You two wait here while I go get a couple oranges.”
“Get lost, I’ll go buy it while you wait here.” Xu Qi’an pulled him back.
“Ning Banquet, you’re too polite, too polite.” Song Tingfeng insisted on buying it.
“Everything else is fine, the oranges must be bought by me, if you don’t want to buy them, next time, you’ll be invited by the Department of Education.” Xu Qi’an said angrily.
Song Tingfeng did strike.
Back at the yamen, Xu Qi’an received another summons from Wei Yuan.
Father Wei is getting more and more in love with me …. He happily ran to the Haoqi Building, and after being reported by the guards, he met Wei Yuan, who was wearing a green robe, in the tea room.
This big eunuch with slightly frosted temples and handsome elegance was sipping from a teacup and pointed to the opposite seat, “Pour your own tea.”
Xu Qi’an, who had drunk a bellyful of wine, didn’t want to drink tea, and still poured a cup, right to accompany Wei Yuan.
“You can’t drink while on duty,” Wei Yuan admonished, “You, except for some justice, the rest is all stink. Oily and undisciplined, frequenting the Department of Education, if I were your political enemy, you would have already been reincarnated.”
“…I am aware of my mistake.” Xu Qi’an treated himself as a younger brother, no, a son, so his mindset was much better.
“That’s just it, rivers and mountains are easy to change. A person ah, if it was really so easy to change, there wouldn’t be millions of people in the world.” Wei Yuan had always been a leader who had a high tolerance for his subordinates, and didn’t really want to pursue him.
Pouring a mouthful of tea, he pushed a dossier over, “You’ll have to make a trip to Yunzhou.”
Yunzhou? Xu Qi’an straightened his expression and opened the dossier to browse.
“A few days ago, the night watchman’s undercover agent sent back a secret letter, which said that Yunzhou’s capital commander Yang Chuannan secretly colluded with mountain bandits to channel military supplies for profit, as well as to raise the bandits for his own benefit.” Wei Yuan took another sip of tea and said:
“The day after I received the secret letter, the Qi Party made a rapid move to create the “embezzlement case” and used a number of gold and silver gongs as bargaining chips to force me to compromise.”
The Yunzhou Commander-in-Chief is a member of the Qi Party? No wonder how the good-natured Qi Party resolved to engage in beating the night watchman, so there is such an inside story hidden behind it.
If there is no my shit luck, Wei Yuan is ready to use a cadre of gold gongs and silver gongs to replace the Yunzhou commander in chief? Wei Yuan is quite ruthless …. By the way, the second said, Yunzhou banditry is difficult to get rid of the reason, the bandits occupy the terrain, and then each have armaments and supplies, not idle bandits, so there is someone behind the support.
The Qi Party is in the capital city is certainly not able to manipulate remotely, there has to be a local high official to cooperate …. Xu Qi’an suddenly realized.
Wei Yuan continued, ”After the secret letter was sent back to the capital, that secret man died without any reason, died without a sound. His real identity was the Department of Capital Command, an experience in the Department of Experiences.
“The man is dead and the evidence is nowhere to be found. I have reported the matter to His Majesty, who will send a governor from the Metropolitan Police to Yunzhou to investigate the matter.
“All you have to do is protect the governor, as well as find the evidence.”
Xu Qi’an wondered, “Why do you want me to go to Yunzhou?”
Still reluctant…Wei Yuan said, “This matter will be taken care of by Jiang Ruzhong, and you will go along for the experience.”
Xu Qi An was instantly relieved and said, “There is one more thing …. Duke Wei, chicken essence should not be eaten in excess, it’s easy to get thirsty, have the cooks put less in when cooking.”
Wei Yuan had just reprimanded himself, and instead of holding a grudge, he kindly reminded Xu Qi’an that he was really too kind.
Wei Yuan didn’t say anything and pointed at the door.
“Your humble servant excuses himself.” Xu Qi’an immediately slipped away.
