A Precious Pearl in the Imperial City

The capital is prosperous, and even the city gate is different from other states and counties, and it is extraordinarily mighty.

Ming Jisi lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at the words on the city gate with burning eyes. His eyes were full of longing: "Sister, if we can have a house in the capital, it would be good."

The woman in the pink shirt did not speak.

"I didn't expect that the person who rescued you from the Huaxi River was a noble person." Mentioning this noble person, Ming Jisi's breathing became heavier, and he couldn't restrain his inner excitement: "I don't know this noble person,? ? What kind of identity,?? If it is more than…”

"Brother." The girl in the pink shirt interrupted him: "The Ming family is very powerful in the capital, don't mention them, you will make trouble for yourself."

Ming Jisi looked embarrassed, and he defended in a low voice: "Zhenyu, since they separated from their ancestors, although they have no contact with us, they have never revenge on us, so why are you so nervous. "

Ming Zhenyu bit her lower lip: "I hope."

After eleven years, she finally stepped into the capital again. As for the capital, her memory only had the bustling streets, the three-entry compound of the Ming family, and... Mrs. Ming's indifferent eyes when she looked at her.

【You are not my daughter. 】

【Where did you hide my daughter? 】

After she was sent back to Lingzhou, these two sentences almost became her nightmare. At the age of eight, she was laughed at as a "fake young lady", ran out of the house and fell into the Huaxi River.

"I remember when you came back, your whole body was soaked." After entering the city, Ming Jisi saw that ordinary people in the capital were wearing beautiful clothes, and his expression became even more nervous: "When you came back, tell us who Save you, we can also get in touch with the nobles earlier."

"The identity of the noble person is mysterious, don't let me say it, how dare I tell my family." Ming Zhenyu lowered her head and pointed to the forbidden step unconsciously.

"In those days, you were lucky, and there were noble people to help you." Ming Jisi recalled his childhood: "The day you fell into the water, the girl at the end of our alley, a girl who was a few years older than you, was gone. I heard that she was soaked in the water. It was discovered a few days later."

"Really?" Ming Zhenyu stopped with a forbidden step: "I don't remember."

"After you were rescued, the high fever persisted, and it was fine after half a month. No one told you this, so of course they didn't know it."

The carriage was quiet, and after a while, Ming Jisi couldn't help but speak again: "You said, have you found the daughter of the Ming family?"

Since the three brothers of the Ming family went out of the sect, the family has heard about them again and again, only that their officials are getting bigger and bigger, and their status is getting higher and higher.

"If Mrs. Ming didn't find out that you were not her daughter back then, you are now the daughter of a high-ranking official." Ming Jisi said with a little regret.

He really didn't understand that the family made perfect preparations before sending his sister to the capital. Ming Jingzhou's husband "wife" has never even seen her daughter growing up. How did she find out that her sister was an impostor?

"Who cares about being their daughter." Ming Zhenyu snorted coldly, "Maybe their daughter is long gone."

As they were talking, they found that the carriage suddenly stopped at the corner of the street. Ming Zhenyu lifted the curtain of the carriage and smiled at the driver: "Brother, have you arrived at the benefactor's house?"

"Don't worry, girl, there is a noble carriage passing by in front of us, we have to let the noble person go first." The coachman held the carriage steadily and smiled honestly. No one would have imagined that such an ordinary person would be the guardian of the dragon.

noble?

Her "beneficiary" is a noble person, and now they want to avoid a noble person. Is there a noble person in the capital?

From time to time, there are eight snow-white horses, pulling a luxurious carriage through the middle of the road, the carriage is inlaid with gold and jade, surrounded by guards with knives on horseback. Even these guards, wearing luxurious sleeved robes, stood up majestic and extraordinary.

I don't know what kind of honor the person sitting in the carriage will have?

At this very moment, the curtain of the luxurious carriage was lifted by a hand. This hand was white, tender and slender, and the fingernails dyed pink were very worthy of this hand.

Ming Zhenyu arrived at the face of the owner of the carriage. This was a beautiful and unworldly face, as delicate as a golden princess.

Seeing that all the carriages along the way were avoiding this woman, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Brother, this nobleman is so beautiful, is she a princess?"

"She is not a princess, but she is as noble as a princess." Although the people in the carriage couldn't see it, the coachman still saluted with his fists in the direction of the carriage: "That is Princess Chen, not only is she respected by King Chen, but even His Majesty and the Queen like her very much. ."

"Princess Chen..." Ming Zhenyu murmured, with a bit of envy in her tone, it's so good to be a concubine, and everyone in the capital must respect her.

Someone came over and whispered a few words in the groom's ear. The groom nodded slightly, turned his head to Ming Zhenyu and said, "Young master, girl, the master has prepared a secluded courtyard for you, and the two of you will follow me to settle here."

Ming Zhenyu was a little disappointed, and the noble lady did not plan to see her right away.

"It's hard to repay the kindness of saving my life. How can I let my benefactor settle for me." Ming Zhenyu smiled warmly: "This time I came to Beijing to repay the benefactor's kindness, and I have no other intentions."

"The girl is really grateful." The coachman sighed: "To tell you the truth, my master has indeed encountered some things recently, so Wuxia came to see you."

Seeing the groom's expression seemed a little careless, Ming Zhenyu felt a little uneasy in her heart, and forced a smile: "That's the case, the little girl will temporarily live in the benefactor's yard."

No more mention of gratitude.

The groom smiled: "

Please sit down girl, we'll be there soon. "

As a prince concubine, Jiuzhu is definitely the most diligent in returning to her mother's house among the prince concubines. In the eyes of outsiders, it was Princess Chen who was helping King Chen win over the power of the Ming family, but in fact, Jiu Zhu was simply taking His Highness back to her mother's house for dinner.

Ever since King Chen praised Shen Ying as her mother-in-law's good cooking skills, every time Jiuzhu and King Chen came to the door, Shen Ying had to cook the next time in person, and she did her best.

Ming Jiyuan's mood was extremely complicated. In the past year, he never saw his mother cook a few times, but now everything has changed.

After eating and drinking, the family sits in the yard drinking tea and chatting, which is very comfortable.

Ming Jinghai sat for a while, and then took Ming Cunfu back to read. This year, His Majesty Enke, Ming Cunfu is also going to take the exam.

It is also for this reason that Ming Jingzhou, as Ming Cunfu's uncle, did not "interrupt" anything related to the imperial examination this year in order to avoid suspicion.

Seeing the back of Ming Cunfu being carried away by his elder brother, Ming Jingzhou smiled and turned to King Chen.

When King Chen reached out to get some snacks, he immediately stopped in mid-air. What does the look in his father-in-law's eyes mean that he would also take him to read a book?

"Your Highness." Ming Jingzhou smiled.

"Father-in-law, please speak." King Chen straightened his back, and at the critical moment, Jiu Zhu thoughtfully stuffed a piece of dessert into his heart.

"It's alright." Ming Jingzhou picked up the tea and sipped lightly, "I heard that Your Highness and Jiuzhu rescued a few women from a good family who were forcibly bought by an aristocratic family some time ago?"

King Chen nodded: "Is there anything wrong with this?"

"Xiaguan wants to say, Your Highness has done a good job." Ming Jingzhou's expression was gentle: "Your Highness has a heart of compassion for ordinary people."

King Chen was stunned for a moment, is his father-in-law complimenting him?

After leaving Ming's house, King Chen asked Jiuzhu, "Little Pig, is my father-in-law complimenting me?"

"Is that a compliment?" Jiuzhu asked blankly, "Father is just telling the truth."

King Chen was silent.

He forgot that Ming Xiaozhu was the one who liked to praise him the most.

"Your Highness, if you don't show mercy to the common people, it may be a disaster for ordinary people." Jiu Zhu leaned on King Chen's shoulder: "For example, the first emperor, or the noble families of those fish-flesh people, if they have half the heart of His Highness Good, there would be no such people suffering innocent suffering."

For the Venerable, it is a pleasure and a momentary indulgence, but for ordinary people, it is their whole life.

"His Royal Highness is different from them." Jiuzhu's tone had a naivety that was not stained by the world, but could see through the world: "There is light in your eyes."

"Well, I have candles hidden in my eyes." King Chen smiled and squeezed Jiuzhu: "That's why our piglets see me differently."

"His Royal Highness." Jiuzhu hummed softly, "I'm also telling the truth."

King Chen smiled and hugged her into his arms: "Okay."

In fact, there was light in her eyes, flickering and bright. She only needs his eyes, and even his heart can be illuminated.

King Huai stood in the outer hall behind the Suzaku Gate, and a carriage bearing the logo of King Chen returned to the palace, feeling a little sour in his heart. When he went out of the palace, he had to choose when the father and emperor were in a good mood, and the fifth brother went out of the palace as if he was shopping.

In terms of partiality, this is still the most outstanding thing the father has done.

"Forget it." He muttered softly, turning around and walking back.

On the way, he and Yun Yanze met face to face. After the New Year's Eve, Yun Yanze had lost weight and his eyes were cold. King Huai didn't like to talk to him.

"Big brother." Yun Yanze stopped him and bowed to him.

"There is no one else here, we brothers, we don't have to pretend." King Huai sneered: "If you have anything, just say it."

Yun Yanze lowered his eyelids: "Brother didn't understand what eldest brother said."

"It's okay if you don't understand." King Huai walked over to him and said in a low voice, "Fifteen years ago, I saw the hand that pushed Fifth Brother off the rockery."

Yun Yanze raised his eyelids and glanced at him, but did not speak.

"A person who dares to fight with a blood brother at a young age, no matter what he says, this king will not believe a word." King Huai slapped his sleeves: "Farewell."

"Where is the eldest brother better than the younger brother?" Yun Yanze asked in a calm tone: "You saw him, and you didn't even stretch him."

The only person who tried to reach out to pull Yun Duqing was the second one who was not very smart, but unfortunately he moved a little slower.

It's a pity that Yun Duqing was lucky, and he fell headfirst, but he only fell to his elbow.

After that, Yun Duqing was no longer close to them. Fortunately, at that time, the father and emperor had not yet ascended the throne, and everyone was under house arrest in the hidden residence. Yun Duqing was young and ignorant, and he did not know that someone pushed him on purpose.

If it is now, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Yun Duqing will definitely anger all their brothers, and no one will let go.

"It is rumored outside that the emperor will make Yun Duqing the crown prince." Yun Yanze saw that King Huai no longer refuted him, and continued: "As the eldest son of the emperor, are you willing to submit to him?"

King Huai stared at him silently for a while, before laughing at himself yin and yang: "It's as if he's not a prince now, and we, who are older brothers, dare to provoke him."

"You haven't gotten used to it for so many years?" King Huai clicked his tongue: "When you were still King Qi, I never saw you dare to compete with him."

Yun Yanze's eyelids trembled, and it took a long while before he regained his composure.

"A prince who can't even protect his title, is it appropriate for you to come and stir up trouble with me?" King Huai smiled contemptuously, turned around and strode away.

Yun Yanze looked at his back gloomily, his eyes full of killing intent.

King Huai returns to

In his yard, listening to the eunuch's legend, the mother's condition worsened again, he sighed faintly, and lay down on the bed.

"Come here, pass the imperial doctor, this king is infected with the cold and can't get up."

Brothers, mothers and concubines, under their ambitions, they didn't treat him as a human being.

He Yunliuan is also a man of flesh and blood and thought.

Concubine Xu waited for a long time, but not only did she not wait for her son, but she also learned that her son had contracted the cold, and almost had a heart attack.

How did this waste son contract the cold? He clearly wanted to avoid her, but he didn't want to bear the name of being unfilial, so he deliberately pretended to be sick.

How did she give birth to such a useless thing!

"Big brother is ill?" Jiu Zhu got up early in the morning and heard the news.

"Princess, the slave has prepared a gift, do you want to send it now?" Yang Yi is the head of the Qilin Palace personally selected by Emperor Longfeng and Empress Su, and has experience in handling these chores.

"It just so happened that I haven't seen my sister-in-law for a few days, so I just went to see her." Jiu Zhu finished dressing and went straight to Zhang Liugong.

Jiuzhu asked Yang Yi, the attendant, "Your Highness has been busy with business recently. You asked the kitchen to cook more soup for His Highness to nourish your body and refresh your mind."

Today, His Highness went out early in the morning, and I don't know when I will be busy again.

"Yes, the slave has memorized it."

tea house.

King Chen sat in the dark room, and separated from him by a wall were the Ming Jixi brothers and sisters, as well as the slightly ugly "beneficiary".

"When you sent someone to pick up your brother and sister into the capital, it was originally to fulfill the fate of the year. Who would have known that the family suffered a disaster a few days ago, and now all the fields and houses are sold, and they can't make ends meet." , the appearance is even more unsightly.

His eyes swept over the bracelets on Ming Zhenyu, which were bought by Hu Longwei for her before she went to Beijing.

Ming Zhenyu felt a little distressed, but under the hint of the other party's obvious eyes, she had to take off the bracelet: "This item was originally bought by the benefactor for me, now you should take it for emergency."

"That's so embarrassing." The benefactor hooked and put the bracelet into his sleeve. He raised his eyes to the golden hairpin in Ming Zhenyu's hair: "The workmanship of this hairpin is a bit poor, but it looks like it's pure gold. ?"

Ming Zhenyu was silent, this hairpin was beaten by her mother before she went to Beijing.

It was obvious that when those people found her, they said that the person who saved her was of extraordinary status and precious status, and they treated her and her brother very politely along the way. Why did she even want her golden hairpin as soon as she stepped into the gate of the capital?

What kind of noble is this?

"I didn't expect the girl to be so grateful. My family has some friendship with this year's invigilator. If he knew that you two brothers and sisters are so grateful, and they are parallel and noble, he will definitely give you a few glances." The benefactor concealed his guilt Face: "When I get through this difficult time, I will take good care of you two brothers and sisters."

"You are my sister's benefactor, how can you still take care of us." Ming Jishen took off the golden hairpin from his sister's hair and put it in front of the benefactor: "The grace of saving life will be reciprocated by the spring, and I hope the benefactor will pass the time soon. Difficulty."

Ming Zhenyu looked at her brother in disbelief, this is her hairpin, he pulled it so easily?

"Since you are all sincere, then I will reluctantly accept it." The benefactor did not refuse, and immediately put away the golden hairpin.

Ming Jisi frowned slightly, reluctantly as if it shouldn't be used here?

You, a person who collects gold hairpins, are embarrassed to say that it is difficult.

"The yard I arranged for you, you just have to live with your heart." After the benefactor put the golden hairpin in his pocket, his face was sad, but he didn't ask them for anything more: "The scholars who came to Beijing recently to take the exam are better. The yard has been rented out, you two brothers and sisters are new to the capital, and if you are not familiar with the place, I can feel more at ease living there."

"Engong has already sold the house and land, why do you still keep that yard?"

"Imperial examinations are important. Although I'm down and out, I'm a man of great promise." The benefactor said, "If the courtyard is for you to live in, it will definitely not be taken back."

The two brothers and sisters heard this, and the doubts in their hearts gradually disappeared.

Renting such a courtyard in the capital is not an easy task, and this person is not a liar.

In the next room, King Chen lightly tapped the table with his index finger.

The reaction of the two brothers and sisters did not seem to be instructed by others to deliberately approach.

It seems that she is purely trying to take advantage, with such shallow and greedy eyes, if you use money to do things, you will be deducted.

Really bold.

Tomorrow, I will call on Jiuzhu to watch the fun together.
