Chapter 51
Chapter 51
The questioning of Yancai fell on deaf ears.Jiang Manyue only said one sentence: "He is too stupid. You should study hard."
"Oh..." Yan Cai dragged out his tone, looking at Jiang Manyue with disbelief.Then he was ravaged by the big palm, and his hair was messed up!
Sen Bai's teeth clenched his palm, and Jiang Manyue didn't let him go, leaving him to grind his teeth alone.
"When do you think he will take the initiative to come to us?" Jiang Manyue took a sip of tea, and Yan Cai also brought a box of refreshments, probably to accommodate Jiang Manyue's taste, and made meat stuffing.Take a bite, the thin golden meringue is wrapped with fragrant shiitake mushrooms and fresh meat, even Jiang Manyue, who doesn't like food very much, thinks it tastes good.
"I guess he'll be here soon." Yan Cai let go of him, wiping the baby's drool.Both fathers are bad, deliberately eating in front of him, but refusing to let him eat. "I feel him coming."
"Oh?" Just as Jiang Manyue finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, and half of her black head was exposed.
"Cai Cai is getting smarter and smarter than I guessed."
Yan Cai had a calm expression, smiled mysteriously, and put away the box of belongings.
"You're wrong. He probably didn't come to us for help. He's the same as me..." Yan Cai wondered if it wasn't right to use himself as a metaphor, but Jiang Manyue looked at him, as if waiting for the next half sentence, "I I mean, like Lin Shu, he is very foodie. Look at him, his face has gained a lot since he came to our house." When he first came to their house, he looked like a skinny chicken cub.
Sure enough, Xia Jue came here just to find something to eat.He smelled the scent right outside the door, and walked over hesitantly after a few steps.He didn't want to get close to Jiang Manyue.It's an evil spirit that can eat people.
It may be that he was hungry many times when he was a child, which caused him to have a special obsession with food, so although he learned the rules and developed slow table manners, his appetite cannot be faked.
When I first lived in their house, it was not at all obvious that this guy had such a good appetite.Yan Cai also somewhat understood Xia Jue's abnormal eating habits.
Because he has been hungry before.The worst time was when he just left the laboratory.In the event of an earthquake, I fell into a concrete pit alone, and the inside was so dark that half of my fingers could not be seen.
The concrete floor can't grow plants either, and he can only wait after the food he carries is exhausted.Later, the roots of the bamboo were drilled through the cement cracks.
Growing bamboo can break through hard concrete blocks!The roots of bamboo are everywhere.He used supernatural powers to germinate the bamboo there, until the hard cement blocks were finally cracked, and the cracks became bigger and bigger.
The speech came out.There were only three or two bamboos outside the cement hole, but now it has become a dense bamboo forest.Yan Cai, who was so hungry, ate a lot of bamboo shoots. For a while, he felt sick when he smelled the bamboo shoots.
Humans are different from pandas. Raw bamboo shoots are not delicious, but dried firewood is astringent and bitter. That is his evaluation of bamboo shoots.Just out of the laboratory to understand the outside world, for a long time, bamboo shoots are regarded as one of the most unpalatable foods for human beings.
It wasn't until later that I tasted the bamboo shoots fried with meat that I realized that the bamboo shoots were not so unpalatable.Of course, Yan Cai still believes that it is mainly due to the meat.
On the contrary, Jiang Manyue likes to eat bamboo shoots.Many of his living habits are actually the exact opposite of Yan Cai.
Jiang Manyue, although her biological mother died young, but as the eldest son of the Jiang family, she has never lacked in food, clothing, housing and transportation. Treated badly.
So instead, he gave birth to the young master's cat stomach.
In the brain circuit of the two foodies, the young master's cat has lost his stomach.Xia Jue managed to touch a plate of meatloaf.
With Jiang Manyue's eyes of death closely following her, Xia Jue was very restless.As soon as his back felt cold, he put down the plate and wanted to escape.
"Don't you have anything to say?" Jiang Manyue took the time to change her sitting position, with a baby in her arms.Originally because of the domineering sitting posture, it also added a bit of humor.
Domineering is not domineering anymore.Before Yan Cai held his belongings and hid his things, he threw his son at him.
"Say, what are you talking about?" Xia Jue was short of breath.
Jiang Manyue laughed twice, and said calmly: "It's okay if you don't want to talk. You have stayed in our house long enough."
"Wait. You can't drive me away, I mean - can you help me?" Xia Jue's face suddenly changed, and finally he didn't look like a fool. "You guys are amazing. Especially, he can make..."
Jiang Manyue interrupted, he knew what Xia Jue wanted to say.The eloquence is very powerful, and it is terrible.Few can heal such serious injuries.Xia Jue already had doubts in his heart, but kept silent.Even if he asked, Jiang Manyue would not tell him back.
"Why should I help you? Businessmen can't get up early, and I don't do things that are not beneficial."
"No, I can..." Xia Jue just kept repeating one sentence emphatically, "I can, I can. I am..."
"what are you?"
"Didn't you already know that?" Xia Jue calmed down, and asked Jiang Manyue back, "I recognized you. You are Jiang Shangshu's son."
Jiang Manyue sneered: "I thought you knew about it a long time ago." No one in Qingqu County knew his identity, as long as this guy wasn't closed to the gate every day, how could he not know.
Xia Jue murmured: "I..."
"Wait. Let's talk about it when my wife comes back." He was alone, he didn't want to whisper to this guy.
When Yan Cai came back, Xia Jue's eyes moved, and he said, "It's okay now."
"Let's get started." Jiang Manyue made a gesture of invitation.
"I think you all know that I am Xia Jue, the current third prince. Someone chased me, and I have fled all the way here..." Xia Jue paused, "I want to go back. But someone doesn't want me to go back."
The more dead the better.With so many princes, the more dead the better.There must be a lot of people who think this way, and like...
The two people on the opposite side didn't say anything about his status as a prince, and that's right, a prince like him is not as good as an ordinary person.
"A person like you who doesn't have any background is the easiest to get out first."
"Yes." Xia Jue didn't want to admit it, but it was true.
"Like me, the sixth and second child who have no mother concubine and no influence of the mother clan are dead. The second child died when he was young. It is ridiculous that he died of freezing in the palace. The sixth child was originally very popular. Chong, also died last year. While riding a horse, the horse was suddenly frightened, fell down and was trampled to death. Ironically, that horse was a gift from the emperor to the sixth child."
Jiang Manyue mentioned one person.
"Do you know Wang Xieyi?"
Xia Jue was suspicious: "Censor of the Royal Capital. I know him. Why did you mention him?"
"Wang Xieyi is a rare neutral faction in the court. No prince will help him. His position is the position of the emperor. The emperor doesn't want to see fratricide, although it is inevitable. I think you should follow him back to the capital. very safe."
"Isn't the imperial censor in the capital?"
"No." He knew that Wang Xieyi had left Beijing, and he was one of the few people who knew that he and Zhu Yuchuan's father, Zhu Zheng, were good friends. "He is in the local area. This requires my wife to come forward."
"Ah?" After listening for a while, Yan Cai, who felt bored to practice there, opened his eyes and looked at Jiang Manyue in confusion.It took a while to hear Zhu Yuchuan's name in his ears.
"Oh, yes, I can help. I even saved him." Yan Cai put down his practice and finally came to listen for a while.Of course not very interested.
In fact, he hadn't seen Zhu Yuchuan for a while, and he was still recuperating at home.Although the wounds are gone long ago, but because they healed so well, in order not to make people suspicious, these people can only "recover" at home.
And Chen Yi was arrested and brought to justice. As for the county magistrate Xu—it is said that he fell ill and stayed at home to recuperate from that day on.Sometimes people are so strange, you don't know that when you are seriously ill, you can still live a normal life.
Once you know that you have a serious illness, people will start to slowly weaken.The subconscious tells myself that it is sick to you.
"After you return to the capital, everything depends on yourself. How to do it, you can remember Mrs. Huayang."
Xia Jue nodded, having an epiphany.
"I understand."
Ying Yiren had been a hostage in Zhao State for many years, and he was not the favored son, but he finally got the throne because Mrs. Huayang recognized him as her son.
"The empress has had no children for many years..." Originally, she might have hoped to have a son in her later years, but now that the emperor is unwell, it is almost impossible for the empress to have another biological son.
"You are very lucky. If the sixth prince hadn't died, the queen would never have considered you. The sixth prince is very favored by the emperor, so he is the best candidate. It will be the queen's birthday soon, and you have a good opportunity to give a gift. "
"Ying Yiren brought a gift to Mrs. Huayang, what should I give?"
When Xia Jue was thinking, Yan Cai was also thinking.He has not received compulsory education, and his historical knowledge is relatively scarce, but such a famous story is still clear.
After staying here for a year, I have almost figured out the world line of this time and space.After the Han Dynasty, a parallel world that was completely different from Yan Cai's original time and space was separated here, but the historical process progressed similarly.
At this time, it was roughly similar to the Ming Dynasty. There were often people from different ethnic groups coming and going at the customs, and the development of industry and commerce was relatively developed.
"Then what should I give?" Xia Jue was in trouble again.Queens have everything.
"Caicai, how would you like to give a gift?" Jiang Manyue turned her head and asked Yan Cai.
Yan Cai rolled his eyes: "It's not easy to give gifts. Let's do what you like." He also asked him deliberately.Hmph, does that mean he's not smart?
Jiang Manyue smiled and said, "My wife is so smart."
Heh, that doesn't sound like a compliment to him for being smart.
"The queen is very filial to Cheng Guogong, but Cheng Guogong is very old and his health has not been bad. The imperial doctor said that the older the ginseng, the better. The father gave him a century-old ginseng during the Lantern Festival this year. The father originally had a ginseng. It's only 300 years old, but it was given to the imperial concubine before..." Xia Jue's eyes lit up, "I understand."
"But where can I get ginseng that is hundreds of years old?" It's hard.The father's one has been preserved for a long time.
"Caicai. Do we have any at home?"
Yan Cai nodded.Yes, as long as he spends some time and some Lingyu.
Xia Jue stared at him.
Yan Cai backed away: "Why. Have you forgotten? Man Yue said that businessmen can't get up early without profit, and we are businessmen. You asked for money to buy it. But it looks like you have no money. I don't have money. Not for sale."
You are right.Although Xia Jue is a prince, he is the most down-and-out kind of prince, and may not be as rich as ordinary businessmen.
"Let's make an IOU. I hope you can give us a good return." Yan Cai yawned, "Manyue, sell him..." Jiang Manyue said it before the thousand words were spoken.
"1 million taels."
Yan Cai's drowsiness disappeared in an instant.One, 1 taels, this is taking advantage of the fire.That thing can't be eaten as a meal, it can be had with some jade.Only a fool would buy it!
Xia Jue gritted her teeth: "Okay. I promise."
Well, fools are everywhere.Speech spread hands.
The author has something to say:
Only fools will buy—the concentration of fools is a bit high.
