After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields Chapter 654

“Lady!”

Liu Ji suddenly came out of nowhere and ran towards Qin Yao excitedly.

He watched her coming out of the direction of the Imperial Master's Mansion from across the river. Since she had been there for so long, he guessed that she must have figured out the teacher's location.

"You ended it so early?" Qin Yaohu asked. He looked like he had been waiting for a long time.

Liu Ji nodded and handed her the snow pear ice drink that he had been carrying for almost half an hour, "Thank you for your hard work, madam. Please quench your thirst."

The ice drink is packed in a bamboo tube with two holes punched in the mouth, and a string can be strung on it so that you can carry it on your hand and eat it while walking.

The store provided a long-handled wooden spoon. Qin Yao motioned Liu Ji to go home, saying as he walked:

"He has been found, alive and sick. There is no chance to meet him, but I have sent a message to him. Prepare some light and easy-to-digest food to bring with you tomorrow morning. I will try to see if I can send you in."

Liu Ji's eyes instantly brightened after hearing this. He looked at her and nodded hurriedly: "Hmm, I'll buy half a piece of pork liver on the way back later and make pork liver soup for the teacher."

He asked Qin Yao again: "Madam, is there anything you want to eat? I'll buy it together later and I'll cook it for you tonight."

Qin Yao was not polite and ordered a dish of sweet and sour pork ribs. Liu Ji noted that when he passed by a meat stall, he immediately bought both the ribs and pork liver.

The couple gradually discovered the convenience of being in the capital, that is, the supply of pork was plentiful and could be purchased from morning to night.

However, the meat in the evening is the leftover meat from the morning sale, and the quality is a little worse than that in the morning. But considering that the price is 10% lower, it's still a good review.

“What did you find out over there?” Qin Yao asked.

She did not immediately tell Liu Ji about meeting the prince in the Imperial Prefect's Mansion today. The man was very timid and would be afraid if he knew too much.

If he had known that the prince might suddenly appear, or that the Imperial Preceptor had discovered the traces of the couple, his legs would definitely be too weak to climb the wall when he entered the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion with her tomorrow.

Thinking of this, Qin Yao turned her head and glanced at Liu Ji, who was enjoying herself, and clicked her tongue twice. Her face was really pretty~

There was an exclamation of "Oh!" from the street. Qin Yao turned around and saw that it was two women selling vegetables who had been staring at the smiling handsome man in the vegetable market. As they looked, they accidentally bumped into each other. Together.

“Bang!” The two of them looked at each other disgustedly, and immediately returned to their respective stalls with a snort, but they still couldn't help but crane their necks to continue looking. The people had disappeared, and they couldn't bear to look away.

　　Liu Ji looked back a few times and muttered suspiciously: "Is this vegetable vendor in Kyoto trying to eat people?"

After thinking about it, this is a manifestation of charm, so I smiled with big white teeth, "I'm so pretty!"

Chin Yao: "."

Perhaps his eyes were too cold, so someone hurriedly put away the big tooth flowers and told everything he had asked about in the flower house today.

“Madam, I am very lucky today. I met a man named Lu Xiaofeng. His uncle is Jingzhao Prefecture Yin. Others call him Xiaoyanei. He is also an errand in Jingzhao Yin. He knows a lot of things.”

There is nothing that Lu Xiaofeng doesn't know about in the capital. He is a native of the capital. Before the Baili family entered the capital, his son had already lived in this world for more than a hundred years. His family seemed to still be members of several important families. The main family of the Lu family in China.

But the most powerful ones are those in his uncle's family. His own father has no skills, so he takes a job and waits for the old man in the house every day.

“In the words of a lady, it's just like eating old age!”

Master Lu nibbled on Mrs. Lu, and Lu Xiaofeng nibbled on Mr. Lu, perfectly inheriting the family tradition of nibbling.

　　After staying in the teahouse for half a day today, Liu Ji confidently told Qin Yao that he had mastered half of the family secrets of the old aristocratic families in the capital from Lu Xiaofeng.

"There are also those from the Xiao family, the family of the widow Xiao who Mr. Ding married into. Last month, Mr. Xiao secretly built an outer room and was discovered by Mrs. Wang of the Xiao family. As a result, madam, guess what?" No need for Qin Yao either. In reply, Liu Ji continued to say in an exaggerated tone: "As a result, the aunt and Mrs. Xiao's natal brother were caught stealing by Mrs. Xiao herself. The Xiao and Wang family became the biggest joke in the capital, hahaha uh-!"

Laughing loudly, Qin Yao glared back. She admitted that this gossip was explosive, but!

“What does this have to do with the Imperial Preceptor? I ask you?!” Qin Yao gritted her teeth.

If looks could kill, Liu Ji would be Ling Chi now.

Liu Ji swallowed his saliva and said seriously: "Madam, it's relevant. It's a big deal here. Please listen to me."

Qin Yao: “Let's talk about the key points.”

Liu Ji: “Okay.”

"The Imperial Master's mother comes from the Wang family. According to seniority, Mrs. Xiao is the Imperial Master's aunt, and Uncle Wang, who stole people from outside the Xiao family, is the Imperial Master's younger uncle. Mrs. Xiao, Mrs. Wang, and the Imperial Master's mother are completely different in temperament. "The Imperial Master's mother, Wang, has a soft temper and is well-known in Beijing for her good temper."

Liu Ji specially emphasized the three words "good temper", which means someone with such a good temper that he can laugh even when being bullied.

“However, the eldest Wang family has been dead for six years, and the Imperial Preceptor has gradually become estranged from the Wang family. They are not close relatives.”

"But the matter was so big that it even reached the palace, and the little Wang had a fierce temper. In a rage, he wanted to kill his own brother, the aunt, and Master Xiao. Thanks to the Holy Queen, The princess persuaded her and saved her life."

"When the Holy Queen led the army to the capital, it was the Wang family who opened the city gate first to welcome the Lord into the city, so this time the Holy Queen attached great importance to the matter of the little Wang family and sent the eldest princess and the imperial counselor to deal with the matter of Prince Xiao and his family. "

Qin Yao was a little impatient. Finally, she heard the key word "guoshi" and waited patiently.

Liu Jidao: "Logically speaking, Xiao Wang and Uncle Wang are both relatives of the Imperial Master's family. It is difficult to decide whether the Imperial Master helps the relatives or not, or whether to help the relatives or not. He Xini is the right thing to do."

"But the Imperial Preceptor tried his best to protect the Xiao family, but the eldest princess protected the Wang family. In the end, according to the laws of the Sheng Kingdom, General Jing Zhaoyin sentenced the thief to fifty men and thirty women, and they were exiled to Lingnan together. Mr. Xiao was also sentenced to Suspended for three years.”

This is a good result, and the Xiao and Wang families have nothing to say. After all, it is the greatest luck to keep this marriage.

But the matter is not over yet. A scandal has involved many people. Some are interceding for Mr. Xiao, some are trying to defend the Wang family, and there are also the outside family who are talking nonsense and making all kinds of shocking revelations. .

Suddenly, major factions in the capital appeared one after another.

Liu Ji looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he whispered: "There are four major local families in the capital: Xiao, Lu, Wang, and Si. Among them, the Xiao family and the Si family want to go to the East Palace, the Wang family is loyal to the eldest princess, and the Lu family is wholeheartedly supporting the East Palace." His Majesty."

“There are still three provinces and six ministries, and more than seven support Donggong. Only the Ministry of Husbandry and the Ministry of Personnel have not taken a stand.”

"But!" Liu Ji emphasized in particular, "the 20,000 palace guards in the suburbs of Beijing, the 40,000 border troops in the north, and the two military envoys in Beiting, Henan Province, a total of 100,000 military talismans are all in the hands of the eldest princess."

“The remaining Beiya Imperial Guards and the Jiedushi Envoys from Xi'an, Shuofang, Fanyang and other six places are all loyal to the Xu family where the Holy Queen resides.”

In case of any emergency, the Holy Queen can immediately mobilize all the Bei Ya forbidden troops in the palace for defense.

Calculating it this way, what the Holy One can control is actually the pitiful Nanya Imperial Guards under various city gates and bridges, and the king's troops from various places in their Baili family.

There are ten troops in the East Palace. Only the troops that can be gathered in the vicinity of the capital are comparable to the garrison of the 20,000 other palaces in the suburbs of Beijing controlled by the eldest princess.

ps: (The above content refers to the names of ancient jun troops, but the settings are not exactly the same. In the article, Jiedushi refers to the border defense jun. The North Yamen governs the Ziwei Palace, which is equivalent to the royal private bodyguard. The South Yamen governs the inner capital, which is equivalent to the local public security. The various armed police, criminal police, special police, patrolling traffic police, etc. in the system are not allowed to spray if they are set up privately) (End of this chapter).
