Just seeing the fists the size of red bean paste buns from the governor of Xunzhou pounding at him crazily, Qu Tingzhou could only shake his head and cry, "It must be because she didn't receive the letter. It's the prime minister's husband. The prime minister's husband is jealous of me, and he won't let me."
My letter was delivered to Prime Minister Qiao."
Now, he can only blame Liang Xi.
However, the governor of Xunzhou no longer took this trick.
She sneered and scolded: "I thought you were of some use, but you are completely useless. I don't even know why I brought you back? You waste..."
Seeing Qu Tingzhou being beaten and scolded, the husband just covered his child's ears and eyes and did not ask her to see or listen.
The servants nearby were either numb and desperate, or they were gloating about his misfortune.
There are almost no people here who are close to Qu Tingzhou.
Because of his "pure and kind" combo, he had really offended all the people in the backyard of the Governor's Mansion in the first two months.
But soon, the governor of Xunzhou was taken away.
The next day, everyone in the governor's office was escorted to Qingzhou by a group of officers and soldiers.
On the way to exile, the cost of food and clothing was much worse than before. Not only was I often hungry, the journey was difficult, the sun and wind blew, and the soles of my feet were worn out.
Where has Qu Ting Prefecture experienced such hardship?
Before arriving in Cheongju, I had become more than one degree darker, my skin was extremely rough, I was skinny and dry, and I no longer looked as elegant as before.
Fortunately, we managed to make it to Qingzhou.
Compared with those who died on the road to exile, Qu Tingzhou had a good life.
But looking at the barren, filthy, poverty-stricken land in front of him, and looking at the thin, numb, and sickly exiles who were sent there some time ago, Qu Tingzhou shook his head.
no.
He can't stay here.
Otherwise he would definitely die at a young age!
Qu Tingzhou grabbed a government servant with his backhand and said, "Sir, please help me. Please help me send a message to Qiao Jinhuan, Prime Minister Qiao, asking her to save me out of past kindness."
Yamen:???
"Are you crazy?"
The yamen officer laughed and pushed Qu Tingzhou down, "Who is Prime Minister Qiao? How can she be related to you, a criminal servant? If you want to argue, you should be aware of yourself."
"I'm not lying. I really know Prime Minister Qiao. Sir, just pass a message to me. Prime Minister Qiao will definitely thank you!"
Until now, Qu Tingzhou still doesn't want to believe that Qiao Jinhuan is really cruel and has no love for him!
She must have been deceived by that bitch Liang Xi!
Qu Tingzhou thought fiercely.
The yamen servant did not take his words seriously. He just laughed a few words and left with the other yamen servants.
Qu Tingzhou was the only one left, standing there in a daze.
"Crack!"
There was a sound of breaking wind, and a whip hit Qu Tingzhou hard on the back.
He staggered and almost fell.
"Come here, don't think of yourselves as rich people anymore. Whatever you are doing in a daze, just follow me. There are a lot of things you have to do next."
A woman with a scar on her face snorted coldly and glanced at everyone with a warning, "Let's go."
The panicked and frightened people could only follow her and leave.
It was night, living in a leaky house, Qu Tingzhou was still thinking about how to contact Qiao Jinhuan.
He doesn't need to marry into the prime minister's house.
He wants nothing.
As long as I can get out of here, even if I go to a Buddhist temple or be locked up at home, that's fine!
Unfortunately, God did not grant him what he wished for. Instead, that night, he developed a high fever and never opened his eyes again.
When he lost consciousness, he seemed to dream that he was living in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
He became the prime minister's husband.
She was dressed in fine clothes, was held in the palm of Qiao Jinhuan's hands and pampered, and was pursued and flattered by those officials and husbands...
Turns out, it’s a dream~
Liang Xi, if there is a next life, let me be you...
"A sneeze."
Liang Xi shivered all over, raised his hand and rubbed his nose, muttering: "Who is talking about me behind my back again?"
"Husband."
When Qiao Jinhuan came back from the court, she went straight to him.
"The wife."
Liang Xi stood up and asked with a crooked smile, "You came back very early today."
"I wanted to come back to be with you, so I left early."
"Master Wife, will Your Highness be unhappy if you are like this?"
"Won't."
Even if she is unhappy, there is nothing she can do about it.
Qiao Jinhuan thought confidently, then gently placed her hand on his bulging belly, "Will he be obedient today?"
"obedient."
Liang Xi's pregnancy was really smooth.
He doesn't have any of the discomforts that a pregnant woman should have, and he is pampered and protected by his wife. He gets whatever he wants, and no one in the backyard of the mansion bothers him. There are also imperial doctors who see him every day, and there are people who make him happy.
.
He was very happy.
Over the past few months, my face has become rounder.
"Am I ugly?"
Liang Xi touched his face and stuffed a piece of pastry into his mouth with his other hand. He also explained vaguely: "I don't want to eat it, it's your child who wants to eat it."
"Yes, yes, he is really greedy."
Qiao Jinhuan chuckled lightly and winked at Lan Cao.
Lan Cao immediately took down all the cakes and said, "Househusband, you really can't eat any more. The doctor said eating too much is not good for your health..."
Liang Xi pursed his lips, looked at the cake reluctantly, and finally let out a long sigh.
Seeing this, Qiao Jinhuan couldn't help laughing.
"The creek is not ugly, it is always the most beautiful."
She coaxed Liang Xi to get up and took him for a slow walk in the yard.
On a day when the cold wind was howling, Liang Xi was born.
He was born prematurely.
Because there were two cubs in his belly, a twin of a twin and a twin, the elder sister came out first and the younger brother came out later.
But Qiao Jin was so happy that she hurriedly asked for leave from the Crown Princess.
"On the third day of the month, I'll give you two days off, don't even think about more."
It is said that the Crown Princess is "iron-hearted".
Qiao Jinhuan argued hard, "Your Highness, you are being unreasonable. My husband is in confinement..."
"It's none of your business that your husband is in confinement."
Seeing that Qiao Jinhuan was about to speak again, the Crown Princess immediately said: "Don't just talk about the things that you have and don't have, and don't look at the things you have done recently, opening up maritime trade, opening up trade outside the Great Wall, improving commercial taxes, and reorganizing the military.
system……"
"Do you expect me to do it alone?"
The Crown Princess admitted that Qiao Jinhuan was indeed quite capable in domestic affairs.
These things she recently proposed are very usable and very good for the development of this dynasty.
but!
There are only so many officials in the court, and they all only have one pair of hands, one eye, and one brain. Finance and taxation, navy, firearms camp... What kind of things don't need people to do?
To be honest, there are not enough people.
Especially people like Qiao Jinhuan, who are proficient in almost all government affairs and can be the prime minister of the overall situation, there are even fewer.
