Chapter 193 Dilemma
Zhiyuan didn't know if Ji Tai would feel uncomfortable, she only knew that she felt a little uncomfortable at the moment.
Li Chen'an doesn't even have the status of a scholar. Although the fourth princess is favored by the emperor and is still in charge of the Mirror Division, if the fourth princess gets Li Chen'an to work as a clerk in a certain county, there will certainly be no problem. The problem is that the fourth princess
If the princess wants to make Ji Tai feel uncomfortable, then Li Chenan must stand in front of Ji Tai!
Then he must be a Beijing official!
This official must be able to ascend to that elegant hall!
This is to make Li Chenan ascend to heaven in one step!
Although the emperor is neglectful of government affairs, he is not stupid.
What's more, Ji Tai is now in control of the government, and most of the officials in the Sixth Department are Ji Tai's people. Even if Li Chenan really becomes an official, I'm afraid he will have endless shoes to wear, and it will be a good ending to run away in despair.
It's normal to have your head chopped off by the emperor.
Your Highness has gone crazy!
The kite looked at Ning Chuchu, but unexpectedly Ning Chuchu said happily: "I will try my best to handle this matter, and wait for him to make a blockbuster at the Mid-Autumn Festival Cultural Festival!"
"Also, don't forget that his grandfather is Li Chunfu, who once rose to the rank of first-rank Taiwei!"
"My father is actually a nostalgic person. Otherwise, he would not have given up all his thoughts and devoted himself to Taoism because of the death of Queen Lu."
"Now the imperial court is full of wild thoughts, traitors are in power, and the people are in dire straits... My father would not want Ningguo's more than three hundred years of history to be ruined in his hands. I will go to see my father tonight!"
"If the traitor is not eliminated, the country will be in trouble!"
Zhiyuan swallowed again. This matter was too big. As a maid, she couldn't express her opinion.
He stayed in the palace for more than ten years and grew up with the fourth princess.
She had seen many dirty things in the palace, and she became even more worried about the fourth princess's words.
Because even in the harem, if you want to live a safe life, the best way is to stay out of the world and stay out of your own business!
No one knew that a certain eunuch or maid around the emperor was someone else's spy.
If the fourth princess really went to the emperor and said these words, I'm afraid Ji Tai would know the news soon.
The present harem is almost dominated by Concubine Ji. Even if the fourth princess holds Li Jingsi in her hand, once the emperor goes to Changle Palace again, the future life of the fourth princess may not be so simple.
"Your Highness, I heard that the winter scenery in Mobei is very beautiful. Yao Guang has arrived at Jingshan City. Why don't I accompany you to Jingshan City for a walk?"
"Let's set off now. I estimate that it will be snowing heavily when we arrive at Jingshan City. I heard that the snow there is knee-deep, which is much heavier than the snow in Yujing City. How about that?"
Ning Chuchu raised her eyes at Zhiyuan and joked: "You girl, you are getting more and more cunning now."
"But I understand what you mean...but I was impulsive. I don't think about it any more."
Of course, this matter is not about going to Jingshan City, but about admonishing his father and recommending Li Chenan to become an official in the court.
There was silence in the carriage. Zhiyuan was a little worried about the master, because she knew the character of the fourth princess very well - stubborn!
If you are stubborn about love, you will never forget that Li Chenan.
Stubborn in his work, he could not let go of the precarious Ningguo country.
After all, Zhiyuan couldn't bear it, so she whispered again: "If His Highness really wants to do this, why not, why not go to Duke Huaiguo's Mansion?"
Ning Chuchu was startled, Duke Huaiguo's Mansion was the mother's natal family!
However, since his mother passed away due to illness four months after he was born, the once famous Duke Huaiguo Mansion in Kyoto suddenly became low-key.
From the time I can remember, I have almost never heard the name Huaiguo Gongfu again.
I am now fifteen and have only been to Duke Huaiguo's Mansion twice.
One time was when I was four years old, and I went there with my elder brother.
One time was when I was ten years old, and I also went with the prince's brother.
In memory, Duke Huaiguo's Mansion has almost existed in name only. The two times I visited it, the lintel of Duke Huaiguo's Mansion has been mottled, and the vermilion door has long lost its former color.
When I was four years old, there were still many people in Duke Huai's mansion, but when I went there again when I was ten years old, it was already deserted.
Grandpa still lives there.
But those three uncles and those cousins, according to the prince's brother, they have all left Kyoto and returned to the island on the eastern border of Ning State where the Huai family's ancestral home is.
So in fact, of the five major government offices in Ning, there are only four left——
The Duke's Mansion of the State of Yan!
Duke Cheng’s Mansion!
The Duke's Mansion of Qi!
And Duke Luo’s Mansion!
At this moment, Zhiyuan suddenly mentioned Duke Huaiguo's Mansion...
Ning Chuchu thought of her white-haired grandfather, who was stooped and carrying a cane, and suddenly felt a little sad. She suddenly felt that she shouldn't have listened to the prince's brother's careful instructions??——
"Don't go to grandpa again from now on, or you will cause trouble to grandpa!"
This disaster is of course the suppression from the Prime Minister's Mansion. The best outcome for Duke Huai Guo's Mansion now is to completely disappear from everyone's eyes.
For this purpose, Duke Huaiguo's government has spent more than ten years. If he leaves rashly again... wouldn't it destroy the results of these ten years?
But my grandfather lived alone in that dilapidated Duke's mansion. Wouldn't it be extremely miserable in his later years?
"Slave... I remember that I left Duke Huaiguo's Mansion with His Highness when I was four years old. It is not convenient for Your Highness to go to Duke Huaiguo's Mansion now, but if His Highness trusts me, I can go there secretly."
Ning Chuchu suddenly realized that Zhiyuan came from the Duke Huaiguo's mansion and was the personal maid given to her by her grandfather when she was four years old.
"But now in the Duke Huai's Mansion... my grandfather is already in his prime years, so why should we invite him to risk his life and enter the palace to meet my father..."
Ning Chuchu shook her head and said, "This is not appropriate. Let him enjoy his old age in peace. I am making a comprehensive plan on this matter."
Zhiyuan said nothing more.
The master and servant were silent for a while, and the carriage stopped after a while.
Ning Chuchu and Zhiyuan got off the carriage and looked up to see the archway of Huaxi Courtyard.
There is a large-leafed banyan tree next to the archway.
There is a small wooden house next to the big leaf tree.
There is a brand new deck chair at the door of the cabin.
There is a ball lying on the lounge chair.
He is at ease!
An Zizi's eyes opened slightly, and he was suddenly startled. He stood up and bowed respectfully to Ning Chuchu: "This... Your Highness, why are you here?"
Ning Chuchu smiled sweetly, "I'm here, sister Ruoshui."...
"Ah, the third lady went to the Hou's Mansion... How about you go directly to the Hou's Mansion?"
Ning Chuchu was startled and blurted out a question: "The old lady wants to see Li Chenan?"
"That's not true. Mr. Li is still in this other courtyard, but the third lady went to the Marquis Mansion for Mr. Li's business."
"Oh...then I'll go in and sit down, waiting for sister Ruoshui to come back."
"...Your Highness, please come in!"
Ning Chuchu took two steps forward, then suddenly turned back to An Zizai, "Are you really a concierge here?"
An Zizi grinned: "It's nice and clean here, but Mr. Li has too many troubles!"
Ning Chuchu's eyebrows arched, thinking that that guy had indeed done too much.
She took a deep breath, calmed down her somewhat anxious mood, and walked towards Huaxi Villa.
Anzi looked at Ning Chuchu's back, suddenly feeling confused.
I thought that the fourth princess had grown up in a blink of an eye. She said she came to see the third lady, but why did she go to this courtyard?
Is there something wrong with this lonely man and woman in there?
