Chapter 85

After venting her anger, Shen Jingci slowly sat at the window. She has never been defeated in these years. Today, she was robbed of the limelight by a suckling girl. She has no way to swallow it!

Xie ruchuo, just wait. I will get it back from you! You eat today how many benefits, another day, I will let you double the vomit out how much!

The wind whistling past the window brought a cool air, which made Shen Jingci shiver. She immediately roared to the outside, "Baoqin, don't you see that the fire in the charcoal basin is going out? Are you blind?"

Baoqin cries in her heart, but she doesn't dare to be careless. She trots in and adds the charcoal basin again.

Shen Jingci looked at her actions coldly, but she began to calculate in her heart. When she had enough cards in her hand, it would be useless to hold the piano! When she attached herself to this body, she was only six years old. She first tried her best to win the trust of the master, and then took the opportunity to get close to the master Shen. The Shen family leader is a crafty man. He is insidious. He does everything for power.

Coincidentally, Shen Jingci is of the same kind as him. The hard work of these years is not so much for the sake of the Shen family as for her making use of them. After all, a powerful family that can't be ignored by anyone can make her Shen Jingci!

"Bata", there are pieces on the chessboard.

If the ivory chess piece of jade has been pinched in the hand for a long time, it looks like the skin of beauty. Xiao Jun Xi looks forward to the sunspot just falling in front of him. He slowly rubs the white one in his hand, but his brows are tightly wrinkled.

"Father Huang's move is too dangerous. It's very difficult for me."

When a man speaks, he rolls down the silver plate like a pearl, and his voice is beautiful.

Emperor Jing laughed and said, "your chess skills are taught by former national players. If I don't use dangerous moves, how can I restrain you?"

"Well, not necessarily." Xiao Jun suddenly picked an eyebrow, as if he had figured it out. He decisively put down the chess pieces he had held for a long time. One of them fell, and the situation was changing.

Emperor Jing was surprised to see the situation in the chess game turned around. He said, "Wu Yong, the old man, has passed on all his life's unique skills to you. This chess player is better than him. It's really high!" With that, Emperor Jing smoothed his beard and said with a smile, "it's a pity that you are younger after all."

With the fall of the sound, some sunspots fall into the chessboard again, which is close to the dead end of the chessboard, and once again kill a bloody path.

So you come and I go to fight, a chess game has played for nearly an hour, and that chess game is already like life, after repeated climax, life and death are dangerous, finally the end is decided.

"Will."

Emperor Jing left his last son, and everything came to an end.

"Third, you lost."

Seeing emperor Jing's complacency on his face, Xiao Jun could not help smiling and said, "my father and Emperor are really good at playing chess, and my son and minister are ashamed."

At the end of a game of chess, Emperor Jingdi won a close victory.

"Ha ha, you are always so strict." In fact, Emperor Jing didn't know that it was his son's intention to let him. It's not good to win, but not too bad to lose. Not many, not many, only let a son, but let him under the process of happy, happy ending. This son is different from others everywhere.

As soon as a eunuch on one side came forward to collect the chessboard, Xiao Junxi supported emperor Jing and went to the chair on the other side to sit down.

"Yes, what do you think of the proposal put forward by the maid of the Shen family at yesterday's golden banquet?"

Hearing emperor Jing's inquiry, Xiao Junxi said with a smile, "but the proposal to build a charity is a good way to solve the current treasury crisis." Other people don't know, but he is clear. In the past two years, natural disasters have been incessant, coupled with foreign invasion, the National Treasury has become somewhat empty. If this method is implemented, it can alleviate the current situation.

"You and I have the same idea." Emperor Jing turned his thumb and thought, "it's just a question of what this charity should do to make it beautiful. Who do you think is the right person to do this? "

A eunuch continued the tea and respectfully handed it to Xiao Junxi. Xiao Junxi nodded his head and took a sip of the cup. Then he said, "since this matter is proposed by the Shen family, it's up to the Shen family. It's just that we can't be alone in this matter. After all, on the one hand, we should prevent one family from making profits from it; on the other hand, this is a royal activity, not a spontaneous non-governmental organization. Without the participation of the royal family, how can you show your father's reputation? "

"Well, you're right. Who is the most suitable one in your opinion?" The emperor listened carefully to Xiao Junxi's words and then asked.

"It's up to my father to decide." Xiao Junxi's face was still with a smile that had not changed for thousands of years, but he called emperor Jing to sneer.

"Don't you talk to me from the bottom of your heart? You should have known that I will definitely ask you about it."

Smell speech, Xiao Junxi this just hey hey a, the slightest has not been caught the embarrassment of the bag, turn to the right color way, "in fact, the son minister in the heart is a candidate."

"Who?"

"Princess Dingbei, Jiang Murao."

Hearing this man's name, Emperor Jing was slightly surprised and asked, "why is she?" He thought that the son would suggest that the Royal people directly participate.

"First, Dingbei Wang just came back from the border and was less involved with the capital forces, so the interest chain was small. Second, the king of Dingbei was extremely loyal to the royal family and tried her best to be loyal to the imperial court. The princess of Dingbei had a good reputation. She had a powerful network of relations with the government, so she would not be intimidated. In this way, it would be most appropriate for her to represent the royal family. "

After Xiao Junxi's analysis one by one, Emperor Jing nodded and said with a smile, "you are really thoughtful. In this case, do as you say." With that, he thought of another thing. "Speaking of it, yesterday I was able to raise enough funds so quickly, another person also contributed a lot."

"Father Huang said, Xie ruzhuo?" When he mentioned this person's name, Xiao Junxi's eyes flickered slightly, and then he covered up his emotion.

Emperor Jing looked at him admiringly and said, "yes, that's her. Although Shen Jingci's proposal is very agreeable to me, this incident would not have gone so smoothly without Xie rucuo's first cooperation. This girl not only has the style of the loyal and righteous family of the Xie family, but also is a little smart. "

"Well, my son feels that it's not surprising that he can raise such a daughter since he is in the government of Xie." Xiao Jun night without a trace of all the credit to Xie Shengli, led the emperor to talk about things related to the Xie family.

"Ah, he is also the descendant of Duke Xie, but this Xie Shenxing is a little too much this time!" When Emperor Jing said this, he could not help shaking his head and sighing, "I am really disappointed that he has not only concealed the flood in the south, but also managed it improperly."

"All of you are good and bad. Besides, my son heard that Mr. Xie did his best in his daily work. This natural disaster is so huge that I'm afraid it's hard for one person to bear it. My father is wise and resolute. I think he must have a solution to this matter. " Xiao Junxi light said a few words, speak to the point, but it is not for the Xie family excuse.

Hearing this, Emperor Jing nodded and said, "yes, since the Xie family has set an example in donating money, it's OK to give the Xie family a chance. I have an idea for you to listen to. "

Xiao Jun secretly guessed what happened in his heart, but said respectfully, "father, please tell me, my son, I'm all ears."

On this day, Emperor Jing and Xiao Junxi talked about it very late in the imperial study. However, a few days later, a bright will came to the Xie family.

Early in the morning, the Xie family, led by Xie Shengli, knelt all over the courtyard. The father-in-law who came to pass the edict immediately said "ouch". He personally helped Xie Shengli up and said, "I can't use it. The emperor can order the miscellaneous family. When passing the edict, Xie Gong can stand."

Xie Shengli insisted on not saying, "the emperor loves me so much. I don't deserve it." Say it while kneeling.

The eunuch stopped it several times, but when he couldn't stop it, his eyes and eyebrows were full of admiration. He secretly wrote down how to report the incident back, and then he began to declare it.

"The emperor ordered that he take Xie Huainan, the son of Xie Shenyan, the second grade minister, and escort the money and grain for disaster relief to the south. He will leave in three days. There must be no mistake."

When the eunuch finished reading the will, everyone's faces suddenly showed a smile. Especially the second room of Li, is put down a hanging heart. Her husband is now in a difficult situation in the south of the Yangtze River. The imperial edict does not mention Xie Shenxing. That's the best news!

What's more, let Xie's family escort the goods and materials, that's the representative. If Xie's family does a good job, Xie Shenxing won't be a big problem!

After all thanks, the eunuch helped Xie Shengli up and said with a smile, "Duke Xie, take the order. It's a good thing. Master Xie will have unlimited official career in the future."

It's obvious that one trip to escort goods and materials is to take the ready-made credit to earn for you. It only takes more than a month to do meritorious service. This is the credit that the disciples of the aristocratic family dream of. Now it falls to Xie Huainan. The emperor indirectly shows that he can let bygones be bygones to the Xie family and give him a chance to make amends!

Xie Shengli thanked xuanzhi and invited him to the front hall for tea. The father-in-law refused again and again, only saying that he was in a hurry to go back, and repeatedly thanking Xie Shengli for his kindness.

Qiao was so busy that he ordered his servant girl to present a letter of money wrapped in the brocade bag. The announcement was that my father-in-law would not refuse the brocade bag. After accepting it, he said with a smile, "thank you so much. I'll go back to the palace to reply to the emperor. I won't stay any longer. Goodbye. "

After he ordered Haosheng to send his father-in-law out, Xie Shengli just called Xie Huainan and asked him to enter the room to narrate. Then he saw that Xie Shenyan had come back from the lower court.

Seeing his father, Xie Shenyan first saluted. When he heard that Xie Huainan was going south with the money for disaster relief, he was stunned.

Xie Shengli asked, "what's the matter?"

Smell speech, Xie Shenyan busy back to God, way, "nothing. But in the court today, the emperor ordered that the Shen family and Dingbei palace jointly host the charity auction and jointly manage the charity. Among them, Shen Jingci, the eldest daughter of the Shen family, is in charge of the Shen family, while the princess is in charge of the Dingbei palace. "

"What's the matter?" After listening to this, Xie Shengli pondered for a while and then said, "there's a reason for the Shen family, but what's the reason for the northern palace?"

One side of Xie rucao has not gone, heard this, immediately raised his ears.

In the previous life, the governance power of the charity fell to the Shen family. Unexpectedly, another Dingbei palace was added to this life. In this way, there will be a good play.

The princess of Dingbei is her mother's sister and aunt. It is said that people are the most upright and can't tolerate that kind of treacherous and cunning people. If she could expose Shen Jingci in front of her aunt, she would be in a more difficult situation, right?

Xie rucao is thinking in her heart. When she sees the three men in the Xie family talking and going to the study, she immediately lightens her steps and catches up with them.
