Gongsun Lan came to the palace to meet Li Jing and reported that Yang Fuguang had arrived. Originally, she needed to go there in person. She had just given birth to her second child not long ago and was another young man. Not long after the delivery, but Yang Fuguang came to discuss the matter secretly is still a secret, so Gongsun Lan went there in person. Unexpectedly, she disappeared when she arrived at the Nan Study room. After asking the Yiwei Army on duty, she found out that she had gone to Li's mother to greet her. After hearing this, Gongsun Lan left Nan Study room and moved to the Cining Palace where Li's mother lived. As soon as she entered the palace gate, she saw that Han's personal female official Jin Yan'er was standing in the palace wall with her sister Wan'er's head-on girl standing inside the palace wall. When she saw Gongsun Lan coming over, she didn't see her. She knew that she must be looking for Li Jing, so she smiled and nodded inward.

Gongsun Lan smiled and nodded to Jin Yan'er, then walked straight into the hall. Li Jing was with Li's mother. In addition to the Han family of Xiaomen, Xiao Yulou was with her. In addition to the four of them, Wan'er and Wang Guiniang were also there. Zhengshu and three wives and concubines each took their own children. Several people sat there and said some gossip about family matters. Gongsun Lan was not in a hurry to go in, and stood outside and asked a familiar palace maid: "Why didn't you see Concubine Yu and the Third Lady?"

There were about thirty female officials who were widows. They were originally a refugee. Later, they had been serving Han. Originally, Han also planned to find a man to marry her again. However, she lived comfortably with Han. Her children were in their teens and went to the military academy to board books, so she simply saved the remarriage and stayed in the palace. In fact, in the Forbidden City, there were generally two types of palace people in the Forbidden City. One was a young palace maid. She was usually selected to be in the palace at the age of fifteen. She was released from the palace at the age of twenty. In the past five years, she was also paid, and she was taught when she was in the palace.

For many peasant girls, they can enter the palace for five years and then come out, but their value will increase greatly. They can often find a good family to marry. Another type of palace people are mostly widows, most of whom are widows, and most of whom are good-born, good-looking, and even know the words. They voluntarily enter the palace to be female officials. Like palace maids, they not only have salary, but also exempt some tax service from their families. Generally, women who enter the palace rarely want to leave after working for only a few years. For them, after working for fifty, the palace will also send them to a newly built retreat in the suburbs of Beijing for retirement.

This female official is not unfamiliar with Gongsun Lan. She knew that she was the outer room of the King of Qin and the intelligence supervisor of the King of Qin, and her status was important. So she explained with a smile: "Maybe it was cold. Concubine Yu and the third wife were not comfortable recently. She has not been here for a long time. The old princess understands them, so she spared them from paying their respects sooner or later, and only let them rest with peace of mind."

"What is the discomfort?" Gongsun Lan asked, "Whether it is uncomfortable, it is time to invite Xiaoyixian to come here as soon as possible to prescribe a prescription and take a few doses of medicine to treat good morning."

The female official was also a clever one. In fact, no one in the palace now knows where Concubine Yu and Mrs. Wang were uncomfortable, and they were both heart-wrenching. Previously, the eldest princess had no legitimate son, and Concubine Yu gave birth to legitimate son. As a result, the two families had a big influence, and the two began to fight openly and secretly, and the fight began. It was a little better at first, but later it became more and more powerful. Unexpectedly, the King of Qin, who had been holding back the silent words, suddenly took action. Mrs. Wang's uncle and several cousins ​​were imprisoned for smuggling and other charges, and several families that had formed an alliance with the Wang family were also beaten. On the other hand, the Yu family was also hit. Tianping Town controlled by Concubine Yu's father was incorporated into Shandong Province, and Yu's father was transferred to Andong, and Yu Cong, who was originally in the Political Affairs Hall, was also transferred from Yanjing. Similarly, several families that had formed an alliance with the Yu family were warned.

Of course, this is not the biggest blow. The biggest blow is that the eldest princess Wang Guiniang, who was already almost a monk, suddenly gave birth to a son and gave birth to two at once.

Both the Yu family and the Wang family were greatly threatened because it is said that the two children looked very similar to Li Jing and were very loved by the old lady. The two families began to regard Wang Guiniang and her two children as threats and acted secretly. After all, in their opinion, Wang Guiniang had no power in her mother and son, so it was easiest to fight them first.

Soon, a rumor began to circulate in the street market of Yanjing that twins were unknown. He pointed directly at Wang Guiniang and her two sons. However, no one expected that Li Jing immediately moved as soon as the rumors spread. Moreover, he was extremely fast. He did not investigate the rumors spread by anyone, nor did he find any evidence. Although Li Jing, who has a powerful supervisory department, probably had these evidences long ago. Li Jing's counterattack was quick and fierce, and he directly issued a series of orders to transfer.

These transfer orders point directly to the Yu family and Wang family. More than 100 officials from the two families were transferred from important positions and localities, especially in important departments such as the Provincial Pavilion, Court, and Department of the Qin and Yanjing. Almost all the people from the two families were dialed. Although they were transferred to other places to serve other positions, their ranks had not been reduced, but from the central to the local government, this was obviously a demotion. This was also a naked warning, and it was Li Jing's anger.

Li Jing did not explain why he did this, but both families understood where the anger came from.

The rumors quickly disappeared, and the two major families had no complaints. They knew that they had passed the world this time.

Even from this day on, Li Jing never stepped into the palace courtyard of the Little Princess and Wang for a long time. For a long time, partly a warning and partly a busy person. Li Jing was too busy before the Bohai Sea, but he went on the expedition for nearly two years. After returning, he was busy every day. Yu and Wang were waiting for Li Jing to be favored and waited for Li Jing to step into their palace again. Unexpectedly, Li Jing had been back for several months, but he had never been to their place once, which made the two suddenly "ill".

"Don't mention taking medicine, Xiaoyixian has almost entered the palace every now and then, but with a female Bodhisattva and goddess like Xiaoyixian, there is no effect at all."

Gongsun Lan smiled. It seemed that Li Jing was going to impress the two of them this time. However, according to her understanding of Li Jing, she also knew that Li Jing would at most deliberately neglect the two of them. It might be really too heartless. No matter what, no matter what the relationship between husband and wife, the two big families of Yu Wang are quite powerful. Even the Qin King Li Jing today cannot ignore the influence of these two top clans. But Li Jing would not let them go too far, otherwise they would be too confident in their strength and do something that they regret.

The two were still talking, but they saw that Li Jing had already walked out of it and asked, "Why is the aunt here? Is there anything urgent?"

"The guests from Tianjin are here!" Gongsun Lan replied hurriedly.

Li Jing nodded, "It's almost time to calculate it. Let's go and meet."

At this time, Han's mother also came out and shouted from behind: "Sanlang, stop, I'll give you something."

As he said that, he waved to the female official over. After a while, the female official brought a few things, but opened them. Each box actually contained twelve peonies with different colors and blooming flowers.

Han said: "This is cultivated in the greenhouse in the garden. There are also such fresh flowers in the twelfth lunar month, which is really rare. I just gave Gui Niang, Wan'er and Yulou one by one. There are some here. You can take them back and divide them into pieces and just give the aunt a box. In addition, Meghan and Julie, two people who are not in the military camp all day long, will take them over. In addition, Yun Niang and the eldest princess outside, they will also send them over."

Li Jing looked at the five women his mother mentioned, but there were seven boxes here.

Sure enough, after a while, Li's mother took Li Jing's hand and said softly: "Young mom and Wanjun's place, you can also go there and send it to them in person. When you come back from the war, you have not entered their door for almost two years. This is like saying anything. No matter what happens, it's almost okay. If you don't look at anything else, you have to look at the sons they gave birth to you."

Han patted Li Jing's hand, "As for the other rooms, you don't have to worry about it. I'll ask someone to give them a box later."

Li Jing nodded. Although Li Jing married so many wives and concubines, most of them had their own plans to marry him without Han's consent. However, Li's mother basically treated these daughters-in-law in a fair manner. She did not value any noble birth or underestimate any ordinary birth. She saw her son's coldness towards Wang Liang's wife and knew the reason. But as a mother, she also advised Li Jing to stop when he got better, otherwise the couple would be sad and become accomplice.

"I know that it's not that I'm intentionally neglected, but I'm so busy lately. I'll send it to them in person later."

After leaving Cining Palace, Li Jing did not really go to send flowers. He called the guards, "Take these flowers to several ladies!" The guards took them and asked which wives they were going to send to leave. Li Jing turned to Gongsun and said, "Let's go, we will see Yang Fuguang."

Several guards each took a box and sent it to Wang Wanjun's place. After asking the question, the female official from the palace gate hurriedly came in and smiled, "Madam, the king has sent me flowers to my wife!"

Wang Wanjun was lying on the bed and had lost weight. Li Jing had been back to Beijing for more than two months, but he had not stepped into her palace yet. His father wrote several times, saying that he had been removed from the Minister of War and the position of political affairs. Although he was a provincial governor in the local area, the governor was too leisurely and was far from the time in Beijing. Moreover, his uncle Wang Gai and his cousins ​​were still in custody. He heard that after the Chinese New Year, he would be demoted to the Bohai Frontier. His father asked her to find a way to regain favor with the King of Qin, but this favor was not so easy to invite. He didn't feel it before. Now he was deliberately neglected, and even the warmth and warmth of the people in the palace immediately felt. Regret, blame, sigh, and pity made this smart woman get into the horns and become depressed all day long.

When she heard that Li Jing had sent flowers, her originally dark eyes suddenly emitted light, and she suddenly lifted the quilt from the bed and got up, "What kind of flowers, bring them to me." While she reached out to take them, she opened the box and saw that it was not ordinary palace flowers, but fresh hibiscus flowers, and they were all precious varieties. She couldn't help but smile on her face on the spot.

Wang Wanjun walked to the dressing mirror and sat down, asked the palace servant to dress her up, and then put the flowers on her head.

"Are you giving this flower to me on a single order or do you have it for everyone else?"

The female official replied: "This flower was given by the old princess, and all the ladies have it. The eldest princess, Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Jin were both in the Cining Palace, so they were given directly to them. The old princess gave the king seven boxes and asked him to give it to Mrs. Gongsun, Mrs. Liu and Princess Donghai, and the two female generals of the navy, and the other ladies and the old princess sent people to send it to Mrs. Gongsun, Mrs. Liu and Princess Donghai, as well as the two female generals of the navy, and the other ladies, the old princess sent someone to send it to her."

The excited Wang Wanjun's smile suddenly disappeared on her face, looking at the flowers in her hand with some loss. She thought it was given to her by the King of Qin, but she didn't expect that everyone would have one.

"What is the king busy with? Why don't you come here for a while?"

"I heard that it seemed that some guests came to Tianjin, so I was in a hurry to see them. As for whom I came to Tianjin, I don't know."

Wang Wanjun's close female official Lu Wu looked anxious, "Madam, you are such a smart person, why did you suddenly become confused? This time, no matter how we are wrong, it is normal for the king to be angry. But you can't always sit like this, you have to take the initiative."

"initiative?"

"Madam, you are confused by the authorities, and you will be confused. Who is the King of Qin? He is a hero who is looking up to the world. Let's bow our heads first. Now that the king has returned to the capital, it is coming to the New Year, so we have to untidy this knot. Since the king refuses to come on his own initiative, no matter whether it is really busy or fake, if he doesn't care about him, then we will always have time. If the king doesn't come, can't the lady come here in person? If the lady goes, the king will push you out of the door. Besides, it's not necessary for the lady to go there in person, the king will come."

"Oh, Luwu, what are your good plans?"

"If the wife can't let go, she can actually ask the prince, the two princes and the little princess to invite him." Lu Wu followed Wang Wanjun for many years and was smart and clever. Seeing that the wife was getting tired day by day, she couldn't help but be anxious. At this moment, she finally came up with a good idea.

Wang Wanjun's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but feel a little joy. Indeed, perhaps the King of Qin was still angry with her, but he would never be angry with her children. Especially the eldest son Dezhao, who was an excellent prince praised by many scholars. If he took his younger brother and sister to invite his father to meet his sick mother and the family would be reunited, he would not have refused.

Thinking of this, she nodded quickly, "Go and see if Dezhao and the others have finished school, go pick them up!"
