Chapter 44: You are mine

Qi Yang's marriage was finally set, just before the beginning of the dynasty meeting. Everyone in the court had their own ideas. Someone who had wanted to make a fuss about her robbing people in the street had to fill the hearth with the memorial written in angrily.
The three princes had been banned by the emperor for several days, and they were irritated when he heard about it: "That little girl will stir up troubles, and I was fined this time because of her writing. But it's her turn to be fine. The emperor father pointed out the marriage for her." He knew Qi Yang's mind, and would not think that the marriage had wronged her. Instead, he became more angry: "The emperor is too partial!"
As soon as this statement came out, the staff on the side hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness speaks carefully."
After the three princes recovered, they didn't dare to complain too much to the emperor, but he was still angry with himself.
The aides spoke again and persuaded: "His Royal Highness is relieved. From the next point of view, there is nothing wrong with this gift of marriage." After seeing the three princes look over, he said: "His Royal Highness was worried before, but he was afraid that Princess Qiyang would get married. Entering the high sect, I will help the prince again. But now the person who gave the marriage is only a sixth-rank official, and his family is average. What is the worry?"
The expression of the three princes was slightly relaxed, and he gradually recalled: "What the sir said is. Compared to going to Rongguo and marrying, it would be better for Qi Yang to stay in Beijing and marry someone like this. I also know Qi Yang's temperament. In her bones, she was proud and refused to bend her waist. If she were to go to Rongguo, there might be something wrong."
It would be nice to cause Rongguo to make a big mess. If she really makes her earn a piece of sky, I am afraid it will be even more trouble.
When the staff saw him calm down, they were also relieved. Then he thought for a while, and then repeated the old saying: "His Majesty does not need to be so anxious. Your Majesty is now in his prime and the prince has grown up. In today's situation, the stronger the prince, the more fearful your majesty..."
The three princes waved their hands and interrupted before the aides had finished speaking, "Mister wanted to persuade me to lie dormant again, but now in this situation, how can I not fight? The prince has a sacred heart. If I don’t fight, I will be the only one. Father What is the emperor's jealousy? It can't compare to the power in his hand."
In fact, from the very beginning, the staff persuaded the third prince not to interfere in Qi Yang's marriage, or even better promote Qi Yang's marriage. Everyone knows that Princess Qi Yang has a close relationship with the prince, and her husband will naturally become the prince's power. At that time, the balance of the court will be broken, and the emperor will first want to suppress him, and the emperor must be sharper than them.
It is a pity that to promote such a situation, it is necessary to promote the crown prince to dominate, and they must also give up some of the power and interests they have obtained, so as to attract the emperor's jealousy. But the third prince couldn't let go. He himself didn't want to let go, and even the forces gathered behind him did not want to let go.
Seeing his refusal, the staff did not try to persuade him again. After all, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger also risked becoming a pig. Except for the prince and the third prince, although the other princes did not take the lead, who did not have any ambitions? Although it is now the key to seizing the prince, if someone takes advantage of the situation, I am afraid that all the blame will fall on him.
Just thinking about it this way, the aides felt that Qi Yang married a small official might be the best situation.
It was not only the three princes who had this idea, but the other princes were more or less relieved when they received the news. Judging from the emperor's love for Qi Yang, they might not have had Qi Yang's idea of ​​marrying, but as long as they didn't have any other brothers, they would not lose money.
Including the prince who seems to have the deepest involvement in this matter, he is also satisfied with this situation. In addition to Qi Yang getting what he wanted, at least the emperor's intentional control of the situation is far better than being unable to control it and starting to suppress him.
As a result, the people who were still affected by Qi Yang's marriage aspired to put it down together, and no one mentioned a princess at the Great Court.
Lu Qipei didn't know the storm in the court. She is now just a small official from the sixth rank, and she doesn't even have the qualifications to stand outside the hall and listen to politics during the Great Court meeting. How can the general situation of the court get her to blend in?
These are too far away for Lu Qipei, and she is just a small imperial courtyard where she can see right now.
The news that Princess Qi Yang was given the marriage spread quickly, but after all, it only spread quickly in the upper circles. Just as when Lu Qipei was resettled in the Qiyang Zhiban Hospital, Zhang Zhen went to the door to make trouble, but not many people at the Hanlin Academy knew that the two really had a relationship. Even if Qi Yang's car driver really appeared outside the Hanlin Academy to wait for her, these people didn't dare to jump to conclusions.
It was the same this time. The news spread in the Hanlin Academy until the third day after the marriage was given.
For a while, everyone was shocked, and there were a lot of people in front of Lu Qipei's door. Some people were curious to see the new cohort, some wanted to please run away, and some had a variety of different minds.
Lu Qipei had experienced this situation once in his previous life, but he was quite calm, but in the end, the scholar himself came forward and repelled everyone.
It is good that no one is watching, at least the door is not blocked and the ventilation is much better. When Lu Qipei relaxed, he raised his head by accident, but he caught a glimpse of a figure stopping outside the door, staring at him with sullen eyes.
But seeing her looking up, the two of them had just met, but the person hurriedly retracted his gaze, lowered his head, turned and left.
That was Liu Chen. The gentle and gentle youth who was usually awkwardly cowered, and even staggered when he fled. Lu Qipei suddenly remembered the conversation between the two officials that day, and while he was vigilant, he couldn't say anything. child.
When the colleague next to her saw her staring at the outside room, he leaned in and asked, "Everyone has been driven away by Master Bachelor. What are you looking at?"
The two offices are close to each other and the relationship is good. Lu Qipei said casually: "I just saw Liu Bianxiu outside. Didn't you hear that he had taken a long vacation before? Why did you come back in a few days? Look at him... his body doesn't seem to be healed yet."
Speaking of Liu Chen, my colleagues didn't know if they had also heard any news, and a trace of contempt flashed across their faces. However, the two did not have any enmity, and colleagues never discussed each other in front of Lu Qipei, and said: "The writer of Xiu is happy, I am afraid that he will have something else. Liu Bianxiu has good luck this time. He is this. How long has it been in the Hanlin? I have been transferred to the Ministry of Rites, and I shall be back to handover today."
When Lu Qipei heard this, he asked in surprise, "What is the background of Liu Bianxiu's family, so he was transferred to the Ministry of Rites?"
The colleague is obviously a gossip, and he almost treasures the family background of the people in the Hanlin Academy. He has heard that his family is in the capital, but it is only a small rich family. The only uncle who is an official is just a sixth-grade official, and Can't help him."
In this way, many people in the Hanlin Academy were amazed by Liu Chen's transfer. After all, the Ministry of Rites is different from the Hanlin Academy. The sixth department is a place to do practical things, and it is easier to accumulate merits for promotion. Unlike the Hanlin Academy, apart from a bunch of literati who study history, it is also a place where the newly advanced scholars have mixed qualifications. It's good to be mixed, but not to be mixed is simply to spend time.
When Lu Qipei heard this, she thought about it. She knew how Qi Yang protected her shortcomings, but she would not give up revenge just because she knew what happened to Liu Chen. So suddenly transferred to the Ministry of Rites or something, it looks like Qi Yang's handwriting...
Liu Chen goes to the Ministry of Rites, I'm afraid there will be nothing good waiting for him, right?
This question was answered after leaving the Imperial Academy and seeing the familiar carriage outside the door.
Qi Yang finally found the opportunity to go out of the palace, and when she saw her happy husband, they both showed their faces and smiled. After pouring a cup of tea for Lu Qipei, Qi Yang replied casually: "I arranged for him to find a good position. He was sent to imperial missions, and the emperor traveled to convey the holy will. Everywhere he went, he should be courteous. Respectful. And after the decree is passed, it is customary to have a red seal."
At first glance, this is really a good position, but why is Lu Qipei so unbelievable?
Qi Yang smiled when she saw her like this, but didn't confuse her, only blinked at her to make her realize.
Lu Qipei was stunned by her playful appearance. After returning to his senses, he was rather embarrassed, so he lowered his head and took a sip of tea to cover up.
After a sip of tea, he will come over too-not all imperial edicts are good. Whenever you are promoted, you will be relegated, and when you have rewards, you will be punished. And the world is so big that the road from Beijing to other places is not necessarily easy. It takes half a year to go back and forth in remote places!
Hey, thinking about it this way, Liu Chen has a bright future, he has no bright future at all!
Lu Qipei would not be so good to sympathize with the person who harmed her, not to mention that the expression in Liu Chen's eyes was obviously resenting her today. Whether it was because of jealousy or what he encountered, this person was a hidden danger to Lu Qipei.
Qi Yang's arrangement was simply perfect, and Lu Qipei curled his eyebrows and smiled at her: "Thank you, Your Highness, for revenge for me."
She smiled as good-looking as ever, but Qi Yang didn't want to talk to her about irrelevant people. She held her chin and looked at her intently, the affectionate love in her eyes almost drowned people.
The atmosphere in the carriage suddenly became ambiguous. After taking a look, Lu Qipei was afraid to look directly at her. He lowered his eyes and looked at the tea cup in his hand, seeming a little embarrassed: "Your Royal Highness looks at me like this?"
Qi Yang took it for granted, "Of course it depends on you."
Lu Qipei didn't say a word, but the roots of his ears slowly turned red.
When Qi Yang saw it, his eyebrows curled up: "And such a good-looking person is now mine."
As soon as these words were said, the hearts of both of them were slightly hot, and then an inexplicable emotion suddenly surged, almost making people cry.
Lu Qipei thought of the regrets of the past life, and Qi Yang also thought of the misses of the past life. Both of them thought that they were the only ones who kept this other memory, another incomplete but very important memory...
That was the beginning of their love!
Qi Yang turned away slightly, fearing that Lu Qipei would see the water suddenly appearing in her eyes. But the person on the other side didn't raise his head, and it was covered by the drooping eyes, so it was not melancholy and relieved.
There was a moment of silence in the carriage before the two parties realized that the atmosphere was different.
Lu Qipei finally put down the tea cup and raised his eyes. There was no abnormal color in the eyes, only gentle and soft. She stretched out her hand and gently stroked Qi Yang's cheek, and responded as promised: "Well, I belong to your Highness."
