Chapter two hundred and ninety-six finger pointing
Tian Ruyue returned to the mansion and walked towards Jinmoju. When she met her servant, she asked casually: "What did your husband do after me?"
The servant was very happy to see Tian Ruyue care about their young master, and immediately reported in detail the details of his life for the day. He even told her everything about the details after drinking a few cups of tea and going to the toilet.
Tian Ruyue: “…what is now?”
"The young master is entertaining distinguished guests in the study."
In the study, the distinguished guests were entertained? Tian Ruyue took Bai Shuang straight to the study with confusion, but was stopped by the servant before she even stepped into the yard.
"Young lady, the young master told me that no one should disturb him."
Tian Ruyue: "...Okay." He turned around and left.
Looking at her back as she walked away, the two servants whispered: "Young lady seems angry?"
"There is nothing to do. The young master is seeing the second prince now, but the second prince is still 'recalling behind closed doors'."
In the study, the second prince was angry: "These fence-branded men! How many benefits did they get from me on weekdays? Now I am just scolded by my father. They have changed to the third prince's brother! Damn it!!" When he was the day he was ascended to the great treasure, no one of these fence-branded men would be able to do anything! They were demoted and expelled from the capital!
Wei Jin sat in a wheelchair, drinking fragrant tea leisurely, allowing the second prince to curse in anger, and even threw several books but ignored them.
After a cup of tea, the second prince's anger gradually subsided. Seeing Wei Jin's leisurely appearance, he couldn't help but ask: "Why are you so calm? The third prince's brother is at its peak. Could it be that even you want to betray me?"
Wei Jin slowly put down the teacup and looked at him calmly: "Brother said this really hurt my heart. For your great cause, I have even offered a hundred-year-old family business. Now all the guests have dispersed, and there are not many servants left in the mansion, and there are no people at the door, and they are deserted and have been defeated."
The second prince glanced around with guilty eyes. He took the opportunity to control the Wei family's property while he was unconscious, and then he realized that what he said before was true. In order to help him win over the court officials and reward the frontier soldiers, the Wei family had already emptied it, but he was suspicious by nature and always thought that Wei Jin was deceiving him.
"Zi Mou, brother is wrong, don't be angry." He showed a pleasing smile at Wei Jin, "You should think of a solution for me. If this continues, once the Third Emperor's brother gains power, we will be not far from the death period."
"The Empress Dowager has always been neutral." Wei Jin suddenly spoke, "If you can get her support, your confinement order will be revoked immediately."
The second prince frowned when he heard this: "How could I not know? But that old lady... it's too difficult to coax her. She eats vegetarian food and chants Buddha's name all day long, treats all princes equally. It's too difficult to make her look at her differently!"
Wei Jin smiled mysteriously: "I heard that the Queen Mother lost her most beloved cat?"
When the second prince saw his expression, he asked in surprise: "Do you know the whereabouts of this cat?"
Wei Jin shook his head but said, "I have received the news, but I still need to confirm it before I know if it was the cat that the queen mother lost."
Need to confirm? The second prince quickly calmed down and told the origin of the cat, "Many years ago, the Turks paid tribute to a white cat, and the Empress Dowager was only the concubine of the First Emperor, and the First Emperor rewarded her.
But there was an unexpected situation in the world. The empress dowager made a mistake and was sent to the cold palace by the first emperor. The eunuch deducted food. It was the cat who kept stealing things to raise her, which made her go out again and leave the cold palace and benevolent. With the current empress dowager, the father was not as good as the cat in the heart of the empress dowager.
But the lifespan of a cat is limited, and a few cats left behind in the past few years have died.
You also know that cats are very good at giving birth. They have been born one after another, and the entire harem is occupied by cats, which angers many concubines.
Some time ago, the Empress Dowager went to Yunshan Temple to worship Buddha. When she came back, she found that all the cats born to the white cat were poisoned to death. She was furious and washed away the entire harem. Even the father was so scared that he didn't dare to stop him.
After a strict investigation, it was found that one of the kittens was lucky enough to escape from the harem. The queen mother is now as crazy as she wants to find the kittens.
If it was really the cat that the empress dowager lost, Zimou, the elder brother would remember it in his heart!" The second prince quickly promised to play the card of family affection.
Wei Jin nodded slightly: "Brother is so disgusting. When I confirm the cat's identity, I will send someone to your mansion immediately. You will go to the palace to meet the queen mother in person."
The second prince couldn't help but look forward to a bright future that would reverse the trend after receiving the support of the empress dowager, and suggested: "Then let Changqing send it, so he can rest assured."
When Wei Jin mentioned the evergreen, a strange color flashed in his eyes, "Ke."
After being happy, the second prince became decadent again, "I still don't compete with the third prince after getting the support of the queen mother."
Wei Jin asked with a smile: "Brother, you seem to have forgotten that the third prince can marry the legitimate daughter of the Minister of War for the sake of power, and you can also marry General Li's daughter."
The second prince suddenly realized when he heard this, and then showed a ruthless look, "Zimou, brother, listen to you!" General Li, who holds military power, is more effective than the Minister of War! He wants Shang Wenjie to regret choosing the Third Emperor's Brother!!
Seeing him do what he did, Wei Jin suddenly said, "Miss Chen has come to the mansion to find me, she wants to see you."
Speaking of Chen Lin, the second prince frowned slightly: "Miss Chen's origin is very strange. After contacting her, she found that she was too domineering. Before I married her, she dared to point fingers at me."
Wei Jin turned a deaf ear and picked up the teacup and started drinking it again.
Seeing that he didn't respond, the second prince was satisfied that he knew how to be tactful but was upset that he didn't share his worries for him, so he took the initiative to ask: "I have never heard of many suggestions from Miss Chen, but if it is implemented, it will benefit the country and the people. How about you say that after I marry General Li's daughter, how about taking her as a concubine?"
Wei Jin smiled, "This woman once made a high-profile announcement to the public that she would be together for a lifetime. If you let her down, I will be worried."
Second Prince: "...In her identity, it is impossible for me to marry her as a concubine. Even if I ask the minister to recognize her as my daughter, at most I can only marry her as a concubine."
"Then make a promise to her in person. She had been very close to the Third Emperor before, and she has been walking around more frequently these days." Wei Jin had a unique reminder.
When the second prince heard this, murderous intent suddenly appeared in his eyes: "...If such a person cannot be used by me..." After thinking about it, he was still a little reluctant to kill him, so he thought about saying three times: "When the Queen Mother's cat is recovered, please make a arrangement and make an appointment to meet in this mansion." Since he wanted to marry General Li's daughter, he naturally had to avoid doing things.
Wei Jin smiled back.
The matter was resolved, and the second prince, who had been disguised, left with his personal eunuch.
Changqing pushed the wheelchair back to the room and said, "When the young lady came back, she asked you about being a guest, but was stopped by the servant outside the yard." Wei Jin replied to the question as if he had not asked, "Changqing, I remember you nineteen."
Changqing was silent for a moment: "Yes."
"Then you should get married, too." Wei Jin said meaningfully.
Changqing: "...There are too many enemies under my subordinates. Marrying a wife is a harm to others. I would rather be alone for the rest of my life than see my wife and children being killed."
Wei Jin turned his head and looked at him deeply but said nothing.
