Chapter 615： open minded

Chapter 615 Ambitious

Chengbei Duwei Mansion

I got angry in Anlin Village today. As soon as she returned to the mansion, Lin Jinqian was furious. She threw the utensils in the house all over the floor.

Brothers and sisters Tang Ru and Tang Yuanxi watched silently, but no one dared to step forward to stop them.

Just when he was feeling confused, a servant came in in a panic and whispered something in Tang Ru's ear, Tang Ru immediately burst out laughing: "Hahahaha, you really can't bear the responsibility, it's only a few days' work!" Illnesses have occurred one after another, and if this continues, I am afraid that without father and His Highness taking action, the poor settler will die by himself."

Hearing Tang Ru's loud laughter, Lin Jinqian immediately stopped what he was doing, turned around, and asked anxiously, "What are you talking about?"

"My lady, King Pingning suffered from his old illness as soon as he returned from Anlin Village. I heard that he didn't catch up with the officials who came to congratulate him."

Tang Ru went forward overjoyed, grabbed Lin Jinqian, and raised his voice to comfort him: "My husband has repeatedly warned my wife, don't be impatient, the couple will kill themselves sooner or later."

"yes?"

Lin Jinqian smiled joyfully: "It seems that we are close to my husband taking over the power of Pingning Prefecture, and it is even more hopeful that my brother Jinke will enter Beijing."

"Naturally."

Tang Ru clenched his fists firmly: "As long as Pingning Prefecture is firmly controlled, the King of Beibin will not be afraid, and then King Qinghe will be able to lead his troops straight in, even if His Majesty and the Empress Dowager do not agree." .”

"Okay, okay, clean up the house quickly."

Lin Jinqian ordered his servants while ordering: "I have to hurry up and prepare more dowry for Yuan Xi, lest she enter the Pingning Palace and be looked down upon."

When the words fell, Tang Yuanxi was pulled into the inner room, when the servants came in hurriedly just now, and said loudly: "The young master, the prefects of Changning County, Changyuan County, Haiyan County and other five counties together with their subordinates Visit the door and ask to see the young master."

"Visiting Pontus?"

Tang Ru frowned in disbelief: "This is the great joy of King Pingning's conferment. Why did they come to visit Bendu?"

"You are just too cautious. Now, no one knows that you are the most relied on in Pingning Prefecture. The shabby household fell ill every three days, and even his little brother wanted to get close to you. Don’t these county and county officials have this insight?”

Lin Jinqian told him complacently: "Don't swallow your anger anymore, now that couple can only rely on you."

"What the princess said is true."

Encouraged by the lady, Tang Ru finally gained a lot of confidence in his heart, and excitedly told the servants: "Clean the living room quickly and welcome the distinguished guests."

But seeing the mess in the room, he hastily changed his words: "Please sit down and worship tea in the elegant room on the east side."

Then he led his aunt and sister-in-law to the elegant room in the east.

The county officials who went to Chongrenfang to congratulate them met a wall in the Pingning Palace. Thinking of the difficulties they might face next, they hurried to the north of the city with their congratulatory gifts, hoping to ask Tang Ru for help.

As soon as they entered the door, they were welcomed in very respectfully by the servants. The cloud on their faces dissipated immediately, and they knew that they had found a backer.

The Tang family is very powerful, if they can get the protection of Tang Confucianism, it will be no problem to have a smooth career in the future.

A group of people hurriedly entered the elegant room on the east side. Along the way, they saw such a magnificent mansion. Even the elegant room was built as magnificently as the imperial palace. It was really an eye-opener.

Seeing Tang Ru, Lin Jinqian, and Tang Yuanxi, they all bowed in fear and trepidation: "I have seen the governor, the princess, and the princess."

"My lords, don't be rigid."

Tang Ru couldn't hide the ecstasy in his heart and welcomed everyone into their seats, pretending to be reserved and asked: "I know that all the adults are invited to come to the state capital to watch the ceremony, why don't you go to His Highness's mansion but come to Ben?" All humble?"

Hearing this, everyone lowered their heads one after another.

The prefect of Changning County, Han Zhen, gritted his teeth, plopped down on his knees, and begged bitterly at the lead: "Please ask the governor to be the master for us."

"This lord has something to say, why do you have to do this big gift?"

Lin Jinqian guessed that these people must have suffered setbacks there, so she turned to the Captain's Mansion, pretending not to know, and said in relief: "My lord, please speak up, if you have any grievances, you can talk about it slowly. I am not used to being bullied by others in my life. The generation of people will definitely seek justice for the adults."

Han Zhen and the officials looked at each other and slowly got up, and then said with a sigh:

"We all sincerely came to the state capital to congratulate His Highness. We never thought of His Highness but avoided seeing us. The princess came to summon us. Because I picked some personal maids to serve His Highness, the Princess held a grudge. , He also listened to the slander of the villain, and went so far as to accuse the governor of Funing County of assassinating, and now the governor of Xing has been imprisoned, and he also threatened to send special officials to inspect the counties in the near future."

"That jealous woman has always been a shame, but King Pingning is a sick child, and the whole palace is controlled by her. Even this princess, the aunt who was bestowed by the court, has to look at her face when entering the palace. Aren't you making fun of yourself like this?"

Lin Jinqian slowly looked at the crowd with a mocking smile, and inadvertently saw the large and small boxes of rare treasures brought in, his eyes suddenly shone brightly.

Han Zhen is a discerning man, he saw the strangeness in the eyes of the princess, and immediately ordered the servants to bring the presents forward, and replied with a smile: "The official prepared two congratulatory gifts, but the one from Prince Pingning's mansion Wei Yin Shaofu felt that I had ulterior motives, so it was fine if he refused to accept it, and let the little princess of the palace, the little princess king, drive me out."

"Is there such a thing?"

Lin Jinqian immediately patted the table angrily: "There is no reason to treat guests like this. Since those two don't know how to treat guests, this princess can't chill everyone's hearts. After all, it's all from the hearts of the adults."

Before she finished speaking, Tang Ru covered her mouth and coughed lightly, interrupting her words.

Lin Jinqian also realized that something was wrong, but she was not reconciled, and turned to say: "Just now I also heard that the adults offended Princess Pingning, and she wanted to trip the adults to send people to patrol the states, but After all, it is up to the court to decide this matter, but this princess can't bear to see your lords being wronged for no reason, so I just want to help you."

"It couldn't be better."

Han Zhen exchanged winks with everyone, and immediately said with a smile full of hospitality: "I have been waiting to pay homage to the Empress Dowager for a long time, but I have no chance to see her. I am honored to meet Her Royal Highness today. Please also ask Princess Qian to send us the Pingning Prefecture we have prepared. The local products will be escorted to Beijing and presented to the Empress Dowager and her elders."

"You really have a heart. If the queen mother learns that the adults miss her so much, she will be very pleased."

Lin Jinqian now just wants to get these beautiful treasures in his pocket, regardless of whether he will offend the couple, he asked straightforwardly:

"Prince Pingning and his wife don't know what is good or bad, and embarrass the adults. This princess can't let the adults shame, and I can't let you bring back the gifts you have prepared so hard, and leave them together with the daughter. Bar."

In this way, Tang Ru would not stop him, and he also crushed the jealous woman in the palace, showing his tolerance.

"Princess is really open-minded."

Han Zhen and everyone complimented in unison.

It seems that the tricky Princess Her Royal Highness was wrongly blamed in the past. It turns out that she is so approachable.

"I am over-flattered."

Lin Jinqian's eyes remained firmly fixed on those rare treasures, but Tang Ru frowned worriedly:

Isn't this intentional to make Wang Pingning and his wife look bad.
