Chapter 31

When his highness returned to the palace, he informed the emperor of Yan Ruhua's countermeasures. After listening to Longyan Dayue, the emperor decided to open the river channel in the South and north of the Yangtze River.

Another person was sent to Jiangnan to cure the disaster.

Yan Ruhua's strategy was really good. He reduced a lot of material resources. The emperor was particularly happy, so he declared Yan Ruhua to be a saint in the palace.

Yan Ruhua came to Zichen hall and knelt down to salute. All the proprieties were in place.

The emperor looked at the woman standing in his highness, and saw that her eyebrows and eyes had the heroic spirit of general Yan, and her behavior was not as shy as that of the ordinary lady Qianjin.

After a moment, he couldn't help praising: "it's really worthy of being the daughter of general Yan. She has brains and courage."

"Your Majesty, I'm flattered."

Yan Ruhua is modest and polite in her words and deeds.

The emperor was very curious. A lady in his boudoir had been a fool for so many years. How could her brain work so well? He asked her, "how did you come up with such a good strategy?"

"My Lord, I always like to read historical records and see all kinds of folk anecdotes and unofficial histories. I can think of ways to deal with Jiangnan because of the inspiration from historical records."

Yan Ruhua said slowly that when she was a child, she read countless books, especially about the geography and history of Dazhou. She didn't expect that she would come in handy now.

Hearing this, the emperor nodded his approval: "I see."

"As a lady in a boudoir, it's not easy for you to care for the people. I'll give you 100 taels of gold to show my gratitude for the people."

The emperor said forcefully.

But Yan Ruhua knelt down in a hurry: "please take back your life. You need money for disaster relief in the south of the Yangtze River. If you want a reward, please use this hundred taels of gold in the disaster area in the south of the Yangtze River."

The emperor heard that she didn't want a reward. He stood up and went down to the hall. He picked up Yan Ruhua, who was kneeling on the ground, and said happily, "general Yan, it's a blessing to have a daughter like you."

The Empress Dowager looked at her, especially liked her, and said to the Emperor: "Your Majesty, I think this girl is smart and clever. Since she has read historical records and knows martial arts, it's better to let her be a master for yu'er."

Yu'er, as the Empress Dowager said, is the tenth prince, only eleven years old.

The emperor nodded his head and said, "what the empress mother said is."

Instead, he said to Yan Ruhua, "my son Yu is young. I wonder if you would like to take the post of Taifu and urge her to do her homework?"

Yan picturesque to the emperor's eyes, promised: "to be the master of your highness, I am honored."

Both the emperor and the Empress Dowager laughed.

This Taifu is a virtual position, has no rights, and doesn't have to stay in the palace every day, so it won't have any impact on Yan Ruhua's life.

In Yan's mansion, Yan Xinyu heard that Yan Ruhua was praised by the emperor. She regretted that if she had known that this fool's brain could be good, she would have solved her. How could she live to add to her troubles today.

When Yan Ruhua came back to the mansion, he saw Yan Xinyu bullying Yan Zhongliang: "you are a common son running around in the mansion, and you dare to see your highness today. Are you brave?"

Yan Zhongliang made a fool of himself and did not speak.

"I'm talking to you. Do you hear me?"

Yan Xinyu has always been domineering, and she has been in the limelight all these years. Now she has been robbed by Yan Ruhua. Her heart is out of balance, so she is angry with Yan Zhongliang. If it wasn't for the common son who brought Yan Ruhua to the two princes, she would not have lost face and let her take credit.

Yan Zhongliang stares at her, and her small hand is tight, as if it might break out at any time.

"What is second sister doing? Bullying children? "

Yan Ruhua's voice was so high that all the servants could hear it.

Yan Xinyu saw that she had come, and said without the slightest kindness: "I can do whatever I like, it's none of your business."

Yan Ruhua came up to her face and said in a very cool voice, "Er Mei, you are so reckless in the hall. Aren't you afraid to damage your reputation?"

After hearing this, Yan Xinyu immediately stepped back, glanced at her askance and said, "are you in charge of a little too much?"

"I just said a few words about you, and you said that I was in charge of a lot. Then what is it that you have criticized Zhongliang for a long time?"

Yan Ruhua guards Yan Zhongliang behind him and approaches Yan Xinyu step by step. "You know how to bully the weak people like fools, servant girls and children all day long. You are so good at it. If it comes out, you don't feel shameful. We Yan Fu still feel shameful."

Yan Xinyu stamped his feet angrily, "you, you..."

After a long pause, she could not utter a complete sentence.

Since childhood, no one has dared to talk to her like this. When she heard that she belittled herself, her face was very ugly. If the person in front of her was still that fool, she would make her look good. But now that she has become so smart, she dare not conflict with her openly, for fear that she would be rejected by her father just like Yan Xinqing.

Yan Zhongliang looks at Yan Xinyu with an ugly face and laughs.In the palace of King Jing, jiqianbing heard that Yan Ruhua had offered a good disaster relief plan, so he couldn't help blocking it up. It seems that Yan Ruhua's talent is far ahead of Yan Xinqing. He really took a blind eye at the beginning and chose Yan Xinqing as his concubine.

Yan Xinqing sees that Ji qianbing is more and more indifferent to her, so she tries her best to make him happy. He is her backer now, so she must seize the opportunity and can't let her backer fall.

Jiqianbing doesn't care about her initiative, but she has another idea in mind.

Since Yan Ruhua promised to be a master of jiqianyu, he would stay in the palace every other day.

Extremely thousand Yu call her elder sister, small mouth is very sweet.

Jiqianhan knows that Yan Ruhua is teaching jiqianyu to read, and he will come here intentionally or unintentionally.

When she was teaching jiqianyu to study, she heard that on the day of the flower feast, the forbidden imperial concubine was punished for one year's salary, and then she got rid of the ban.

Although she was released, the emperor's love for her was not as good as before.

As for the palace maid Xianxian, she admitted that she was responsible for all the crimes in the prison. She also said that she was jealous of Princess de and deliberately framed Princess de by poisoning her. As for the poison of wubulian, she put it in Princess De's bedroom. Because she confessed to the crime, she was sentenced to death.

This result is really unsatisfactory. The palace maid Xianxian is just a powerless palace maid. Even if she is jealous of Princess De, she doesn't need to do so much harm to her. Besides, the five step lotus poison is very expensive and hard to buy. How long does it take her to save to buy that kind of poison?

It is obvious that someone is shielding the real murderer and making a palace maid who has no power to bind a chicken bear all the crimes. The fight in the back palace is really terrible.

Yan Ruhua not only remembers what the queen said that day, but also the scheme of two birds with one stone by two virtuous concubines and two virtuous concubines, who only used a cup of poisonous wine and a palace maid to win the whole game. The mastermind behind the scenes is really clever and dangerous.

And the Defei, who is now out of favor, is the mother of Her Highness jiqianyu.

When Princess de came to visit jiqianyu, her eyes were still full of tears. She was innocent and wronged. Now she lost her favor. Now her only hope is her son.

"Why did the concubine cry?"

Jiqianyu's voice was still young. He gently wiped away the tears in the eyes of Princess de with the corner of his clothes. His eyes were full of doubts.

Defei squeezed out a smile: "it's OK for her mother. She's just lost in the sand."

Ji Qianyu raised his feet and blew his eyes for her. He still asked, "is the concubine better?"

"It's much better," she said softly, caressing his soft black hair lovingly
