Marquis Bei Wei said all the words clearly, then flung his sleeve away, to the side lady Qiu's place, today heard that Qiu's pregnant, he has not yet gone to see it. This is the old son, if the child can be born safely, he can show off in front of the group of Dingnan Marquis. Thinking about this, Mu Jin's originally dull mood, suddenly got better.

Mrs. Bei Wei Hou sat in the house all night and thought about everything from beginning to end.

First of all, Mu Hanzhang is very favored in front of King Cheng, and has made military achievements, the Emperor, with his golden tongue, has promised to give him a marquis.

Secondly, if Mu Hanzhang had the title of Marquis, it would not be his turn to inherit it even if Mu Lingbao died.

However, if Mrs. Yongchangbo made such a fuss, in case the Emperor did not confer another title and used the news that Marquis Beiwei's son had become an invalid to give the title directly to Mu Huanzhang, then everything she had would be gone.

So, it was imperative that he could have a marquis position so that he wouldn't come to take her grandson's place. It's really cheap for that little bitch!

Took the idea, Mrs. North Marquis of Wei only lay down to rest for two hours, the next morning to get up to freshen up and dress up neatly, handed the card into the palace to go.

This day's morning court time is a little long, because the emperor wants to call the big prince back, lest he in front of the southern barbarians in disgrace. Jing Yu faction of officials naturally agree, now into the king is back, the big prince is still in Dianzang dry consumption, out of effort is not pleasing to not get half a point of military power, not such as hurry back, the fourth prince can also have a helper.

"Yunnan and Tibet terrain is complex, the eldest prince has not led troops before, more time consumed some days is also normal." Sun Shangshu of the Ministry of War came out and said, the implication is that the eldest prince has not fought in the war, only half a year's time which can win, can be like King Cheng this four months to destroy the two clans, it is estimated that hundreds of years is also difficult to come up with a person. This sounds like a big prince to help excuse, in fact, is in praise of Jing Shao.

"Yes Your Majesty, pacifying the chaos is not a momentary feat, give the Grand Prince some more time and it might be effective." Another official concurred.

Jing Shao knows that these are brother's people, their purpose is to prevent the big prince to return to the dynasty, Jing Rong and Jing Yu two, singling out the benefits of more things to do, do not do it on the thought of leaving, this can not be done, the big prince to return to the dynasty, flat southern barbarians of the hard work will have to fall on his head.

"Jing Shao, what do you think?" Emperor Hongzheng looked towards Jing Shao who bowed his head in silence, regarding the matter of war, it was now customary to ask Jing Shao's opinion.

"The war, not overnight can be reached, the southern barbarians are cunning, Dianzang and the terrain is dangerous, must take a long time to get the mystery," Jing Shao bowed, "I think that the big brother has already been doing his best, now the days are still short, can not see the results, as well as to give my brother some more time. "

Emperor Hongzheng looked at him with deep eyes, "If I let you go, how long will it take to destroy the Southern Barbarians."

Jing Shao's heart lingered, and he deliberated on the wording, "It is indeed luck that my son has pacified the two clans this time, and it is a matter of luck that the Great Imperial Brother is followed by the General of the Conquest of the East by his side, and even if my son were to go there, he wouldn't be able to do a better job than they have done."

Emperor Hongzheng heard, nodded slightly, considered to believe Jing Shao words. After all, Jing Shao had already admitted clearly to him that Southeast was not destroyed by him at all, it was just that the Southeast King was unlucky and got himself killed by his concubine. Although he knows that this is his lazy don't want to go to war, good thing that he has been defending his elder brother, not half denigrating intention, this point Hongzheng emperor is very satisfied.

Thus, the matter of the return of the eldest prince to the court has been delayed again, the fourth prince's face is a little unsightly, Jing Chen is still the same deputy Taishan collapsed in front of me since the deep as before, and Jing Shao exchanged a look, and took the Ministry of Ceremony proposed a few titles and seals to go to the Imperial Study Room.

Jing Shao got off the morning court and walked to the side door where he happened to meet the guards commander Xiao Qian.

"Your Highness, there is news." Xiao Qian pulled Jing Shao to hide in the small doorway.

Jing Shao gave him a small golden turtle, "How so?"

"Hehehe, Mrs. Marquis Bei Wei entered the palace early in the morning," Xiao Qian stuffed the golden turtle into his clothes and whispered, "That lady is really powerful, I asked the little eunuchs of the Yongning Palace to inquire about it, and Mrs. Yongchang Bo almost didn't die of anger."

But it turns out, Mrs. Yongchang Burr after breakfast in front of the Yongning Palace and crying, upside down repeatedly said Yongchang Burr generations of loyal, and now fell to the point of bullying, followed by the great-grandfather to fight for the world born into death, and now a just and the crown of the boy but to be marquis, so that the family of the public vassal how can I be embarrassed.

Beiwei Marquis wife went, without saying anything also followed the cry, than Yongchang uncle wife cried more painful. Said the son of the Duke of Maoguo family pushed the Beiwei Marquis' son into the water on the 9th day of the 3rd month, and now he is still sick, and his two nephews are bedridden, and their feet have been frozen. Bei Wei Marquis generations of loyal, just a little lower than others, fell to the point of bullying. When followed by the ancestors to fight the world born to die, now even to even be almost cut off.

Mrs. Yongchang Bo was dumbfounded by what she said, always felt that she said how so familiar, but Maoguo Gong and her family is now a gang, naturally, to help say a few words, then asked her on what grounds that the Maoguo Gong family did.

The North Marquis of Wei ignored her, just crying, said the Empress promised to give her daughter a good marriage, looking to become an old girl, the marriage has not yet been settled. And said Yongchang uncle's grandson last pinch bad her herbs, that is she spent three years hand-raised, in order to cure her mother-in-law, now the herbs are destroyed, her mother-in-law's body day by day, Yongchang uncle's family but not even an apology for the words have not said.

Mrs. Yongchang Bo heard, almost did not back over the gas, her grandson last time on the pinch off the Marquis of Northway a few branches of honeysuckle, could it be that the Marquis of Northway still lacks this a few pennies a tael of fire-reducing medicine?

When Jing Shao heard this, he put a fist against his lips and couldn't help stifling a laugh.

Xiao Qian himself said he could not stop stealing joy: "Yongning Palace today can be lively, a few to go to ask for peace of the Queen also saw, are to hold back the smile hurriedly retired."

"Can the Empress Dowager say anything?" Jing Shao heart this North Marquis of Wei lady can really powerful, what shit pots are to those two families buckle, Maoguo Gong's son and Mu Lingbao really have a fault, in the summer time he also saw the two people fight in the House of Taste back, but this fell into the water with the Maoguo Gong's family but half of the relationship is also nothing.

"The empress dowager was annoyed by the noise, and in a fit of rage drove both madams out of the palace, saying that she no longer cared about these things." Xiao Qian smiled and said, with such a fuss, the two ladies were even famous in the capital.

Jing Shao smiled and thanked Xiao Qian for his help, mounted Xiao Hei and ran to the house, he had to hurry to talk to his own princess about this.

"Your Highness!" Sun Shangshu was sitting in a sedan chair, and when he saw Jing Shao galloping by on his horse outside the window, he was busy calling out to him.

"Whinny~" Xiao Hei immediately braked his steps, manned up and raised his hooves, and came back in three or two steps.

"What's wrong?" Jing Shao frowned, he was anxious to go back and have breakfast with his own princess, Jun Qing said that she would personally make fried vegetable balls for him today!

"Today, the Ministry of War has some things that must be decided by His Majesty, you must go there." Sun Shangshu helplessly said, this ancestor in the past two days to avoid laziness is just, now the war back, has not once been to the Ministry of War.

"Got it." Jing Shao waved his hand, today, his brother had already explained to him that recently, he had to find a reason to pull down that old piker Song An, and it was assumed that Sun Shangshu was going to discuss this matter with him.

"Junqing, I'm back!" Jing Shao yelled excitedly just as he entered the East Garden.

Mu Hanzhang hurriedly applied the medicine on his hands and turned to welcome him out.

"Where are the vegetable balls?" Jing Shao gleefully wrapped his own princess into his arms, he was still covered in the scent of food and smelled so delicious that he couldn't help but sniff between the white neck.

Mu Hanzhang was tickled and gently pushed him away pointing to the plate on the table.

Several plates of delicate dishes on the table, all served on white porcelain plates, with only a wooden plate in the center, filled with deep-fried golden vegetable balls, and a small celadon bowl next to it, containing a well-seasoned garlic dipping sauce.

Jing Shao couldn't sit down in time, so he took his chopsticks and grabbed one, dipped it in the sauce and ate it in one bite. It was crispy and very tasty, making one want to eat more, so he ate another one and said vaguely, "Junqing, you're too good, you can cook this well without having cooked before!"

Mu Hanzhang helplessly pulled him to sit down and gave him a bowl of thin rice. In the morning, Jing Shao relied on refusing to get up, insisted on making out with him, and finally could not, only had to say that he would make him vegetable pills before coaxing people out the door.

"It's not exactly what I did, the cook made everything, I just squeezed them into balls and fried them in the pot." Mu Hanzhang put his left hand on his lap and ate with only his right hand.

"It's already marvelous!" Jing Shao added a pill to feed to his side.

Mu Hanyang couldn't refuse, so he only opened his mouth and bit half of it, and before he could bite the other half off as well, the chopsticks had already turned a corner and filled Jing Shao's mouth. Seeing him eat so naturally, Mu Hanzhang couldn't say anything, only had to purse his lips and slowly drink the congee.

Jing Shao gave his own princess some dishes, always felt that something was wrong, ate the last pill before remembering that Jun Qing's left hand had actually been placed underneath! Because his etiquette has always been in place, missing a hand still moves elegantly and smoothly, which was only discovered by Jing Shao, not waiting to speak, a hand under the table grabbed over.

"Hiss ......" Mu Hanyang sucked in a mouthful of cool air, to break free has been too late, glistening little finger, two translucent blisters just like that uncovered in front of Jing Shao.

"Junqing ......," Jing Shao frowned, his heart aching, and the little bit of pleasure he had from eating the vegetable balls suddenly vanished.

"It's fine, in a couple days it will be fine." Mu Han Zhang sighed, gentleman far from the kitchen, he basically has not been in the kitchen since he was a child, looking at the cook to do seems to be very simple, really let himself do it, it is clumsy.

"No more going to the kitchen in the future." Jing Shao had someone fetch some crushed ice, wrapped it in a silk cloth, and carefully applied it to the blisters.

The cool touch relieved the fiery pain, Mu Hanzhang watched Jing Shao carefully applying the medicine, and gently blowing on the injury, that serious look, perhaps it would only appear when researching the layout diagram. Slowly hooking his lips, he only felt warmth in his heart, burning two blisters was worth it.

"Don't go out for the next two days, if you freeze again you'll have to leave a scar." Jing Shao held the jade-like hand, his heart aching.

"The holy decree has arrived!" The two were talking, when suddenly the sound of a notification came from outside the door, and the two looked at each other. Mu Hanzhang let Duo Fu first go to receive the eunuchs of the imperial decree, pulling Jing Shao to hurriedly change his clothes and go to the front yard to listen to the decree.

"Cheng Wangfei Mu Huanzhang receives the decree!" The eunuch of the imperial decree took a glance at the kneeling Princess Cheng and unfolded the bright yellow scroll embroidered with five-colored dragons.
