It's great, another day of lying down and idling in the palace

Chapter 526

"King Lie and I are just brothers"

King Zhao still said it out loud. He always felt that although Ji Yunqing didn't say it, he still misunderstood them.

Ji Yunqing blurted out: "But this won't delay it. It can diagnose King Lie's pregnancy! If you don't believe me, let Ruirui try it."

King Zhao gritted his teeth and said, "…Rui Rui diagnoses everyone with a happy pulse!"

Regardless of gender, age or status!

Rui Rui, who was following behind, heard her name and happily acknowledged it: "Are you talking about me?"

The court doctor, who was walking at the end and had no sense of existence at all, suppressed his presence again.

Your Majesty, please understand!

He taught the Fourth Young Master how to take a pulse, but the Fourth Young Master was too young to learn it, and he always felt pregnant when he took everyone's pulse.

The old doctor in the court was blessed with many sons.

I just didn't expect that Concubine Ji and the prince also knew about this.

When I think about how they knew...

The court doctor lowered his head lower and lower, he didn't dare to imagine the scene.

But the Fourth Young Master was studying very hard.

The group finally arrived at the place where Ruirui was picking flowers.

Ji Yunqing took a look and saw that this was near the Osmanthus Courtyard.

It’s not far from Osmanthus Courtyard, and this is where Ruirui often comes.

After all, the distance is so close that even if you don’t pay attention, you will still take a walk here from time to time.

Ruirui pointed to a pink and blue flower and said, "It's right here. This is a new flower that has grown recently."

"If I hadn't wanted to learn from a master, I wouldn't have the heart to pick this beautiful flower."

Ji Yunqing was puzzled: "Learn from a master?"

"Uh-huh"

Ruirui was a little shy when talking about it. She scratched the ground with her little feet and said shyly, "I know I haven't learned how to take a pulse yet. I thought I'd give more gifts and ask the doctor to teach me more."

Ji Yunqing was speechless. You are quite knowledgeable about the ways of the world.

"Okay, we've seen the flowers, Ruirui, go back and have a rest."

Ji Yunqing sent people back. Although no one told her, King Zhao was not the kind of person who would look at flowers for no reason.

It can't be that it is really meant to be given to King Lie, right?

So there must be something wrong with this flower.

What's the problem?

She looked at the court doctor.

It shouldn't be a small problem, maybe it has some bad effects on the body.

Anyway, it's good to find this thing.

She didn't want Ruirui to have any more contact with this place.

Ruirui didn't feel very tired at first, he was used to playing, but when his mother said that, he couldn't help but yawning: "Okay!"

As soon as Ruirui turned around, Ji Yunqing suddenly called him: "Ruirui, do you know where else you can find this kind of flower?"

Others were stunned. Is there such a flower in the mansion?

...There shouldn't be any more, right?

Then the fourth young master said loudly and energetically: "Rui Rui knows!"

As soon as Ruirui heard his mother asking him a question, he was no longer sleepy.

Next, Ruirui counted on his little fingers as if he was reading out the names of dishes, and listed more than ten places in a row.

The whole place was filled with his babyish voice:

"They are all here. Some have one or two flowers, some have more than ten, and some have not bloomed yet, only buds."

People present: “…” Why does the Fourth Young Master know so much about the flowers that haven’t bloomed yet?

Only Ji Yunqing reacted calmly.

Children are like this, they think about playing all day long, and of course they know very well what is in their territory.

It is no exaggeration to say that usually, although the maid in charge of the corresponding matter knows what she is looking for, the only people who know where everything in the courtyard is, besides Xuancao, this boy.

Ji Yunqing was just about to ask someone to pull all the flowers out, but he heard King Zhao's angry voice.

"Come here, call the steward who is in charge of the flowers and plants, and the servant who is in charge of sweeping this area."

These are the people who have direct access to this place.

Ji Yunqing then realized that he should first find out whether it was intentional or an accident.

She sighed with some relief: "Your Majesty is still thoughtful. I just wanted to pull these things out and didn't think too much."

King Zhao glanced at Ji Yunqing, who was full of relief, and said nothing more.

Only Ji Yunqing dared to sigh at this time, knowing that this matter was of great importance. Eunuch Shi specially ordered

Soon, the steward who was in charge of the flowers and plants in the mansion and the servants who were cleaning the nearby area came over.

The group moved the venue to a small pavilion nearby.

Ji Yunqing took this opportunity to ask Ruirui whether she wanted to stay and take a look, or leave first.

Ruirui said happily, "Can I stay? Isn't it said that we kids can't watch adults do things?"

He was often sent away, and each time he never asked any further questions.

Is there any child in this world who doesn't know that if he makes a fuss, adults will never let him play again?

"Well, you are two years old now, you are no longer the child you used to be. I thought your father wanted to investigate something, so you should learn from his experience."

Ji Yunqing just realized that he had been careless, and immediately corrected his mistake and planned to cultivate his child's experience in this area.

——Don’t let King Zhao think that she is not only stupid, but also can’t take care of a child.

What's more, Ji Yunqing was very clear about one thing.

The eldest son in the mansion is King Zhao's eldest son, and the adopted child from the princess's side must also be valued by King Zhao.

To sum up, these two children are the apples and pears of King Zhao's eye.

In addition, King Zhao had previously said that Ruirui would kill his father when he grew up, which meant that Ruirui would not be valued by King Zhao in the future, and would not receive any real teaching.

The mother and son could only learn by themselves, or learn a few tricks from others from time to time.

Obviously now is the time to learn secretly.

She advised earnestly: "You should learn more, maybe it will be useful someday in the future." While you are still young, you should take part in the prince-level courses.

"Okay"

Ruirui nodded repeatedly in response to her mother's instructions.

He walked towards King Zhao, intending to watch from close range.

"and many more"

Ji Yunqing grabbed the little guy by the back of his collar and said, "Go ask the court doctor first to see if you will be affected."

Ruirui thought for a moment and asked, "Is it the influence of that Huahua?"

"Yes, go ask first. If you are affected, you should leave quickly. You can learn from experience at any time. Your own health is the most important thing."

Ji Yunqing was not surprised that Ruirui could guess it. Although the child was young, he was not a fool.

Many adults always think that children don’t understand anything, so important things must be hidden from children, but Ji Yunqing thinks it is unnecessary.

If you hide something from your child, you will have to bear the consequences if your child accidentally does something wrong.

Ji Yunqing couldn't accept the consequence of Ruirui touching this flower again and being poisoned without knowing it, so she had to tell her.

This incident also gave Ji Yunqing a warning that she had to teach Ruirui to recognize the poisonous flowers and plants and avoid them in time.

Children always have to study anyway, it’s just a matter of taking an extracurricular class.

Ji Yunqing stared at Prince Zhao not far away for a few seconds. In such a short time, she had already planned how to discuss with Prince Zhao and let the court doctor teach Ruirui.

If all else fails, give King Zhao some money or something.

I will use my connections to get my child into this tutoring class.

Mother's request was very simple. Ruirui immediately ran to the court doctor, raised his head to reveal a fair and tender little face, and pulled the doctor's sleeve to whisper something.

Ji Yunqing saw clearly from here that when the court doctor saw Ruirui coming over, he lowered his head slightly and listened to what Ruirui said.

Then he twirled his gray beard, thought for a moment, and gave an answer.

Ruirui waved happily to her mother and ran to King Zhao.

King Zhao looked at the child and did not drive him away.

Ruirui, on the other hand, turned his little head left and right.

Finally, he set his sights on Eunuch Shi.

Noticing this undisguised gaze, Eunuch Shi looked over in confusion and saw the short Fourth Young Master.

A loving smile appeared on his face.

When the Fourth Young Master was a child, he hugged him.

Not to mention that the Fourth Young Master often went to the front yard to play and would bring him some small toys from time to time, so Eunuch Shi spent quite a lot of time in contact with him.

Occasionally, when the prince was angry or busy, Eunuch Shi would specifically remind the Fourth Young Master to stay away to avoid being taken out on by the prince.

At this moment he saw that the Fourth Young Master moved his little body, carefully compared his position, and stood on the other side of the prince with a serious look.

There were just two of them, one big and one small, and the scene looked quite funny.

Eunuch Shi was confused: "..."

Fourth Young Master, are you going to compete with me for the position of the chief steward of the prince?

At this time, the steward of the mansion had arrived. He was a man in his forties, with a small mustache and a shrewd and capable look.

Following behind him were two little maids who lowered their heads and trembled with fear.

The little maid was wearing the rough clothes of the maids in the mansion. The clothes were a little white from washing, but fortunately they were clean.

"Your Highness, the steward and the maid who was sweeping nearby have been brought here."

King Zhao didn't even look at them and asked directly, "Who planted the flowers and plants around here? Where is the account book?"

"This batch of flowers and plants was replaced three months ago. The account book is here."

As he spoke, he took out an account book from his arms.

Eunuch Shi took it and presented it to King Zhao.

King Zhao waved his hand and Eunuch Shi opened the book.

Ruirui on the other side saw this and quietly walked over and tiptoed to take a look.

Seeing that he was curious and the account book was not a secret, Eunuch Shi simply squatted down and the two of them looked through it together.

After quickly reading the entire book, Eunuch Shi whispered, "Your Majesty, there is no record on it."

"There is no record of it, how could it grow in the mansion? Tell me about it."

King Zhao looked in the direction of the steward.

Although King Zhao did not have any words of rebuke, the steward's legs went weak after being asked and he fell to his knees on the ground.

The sound was so crisp that Ji Yunqing felt pain when he heard it.

"Your Majesty, I know nothing!"

"What's the point of keeping someone who manages these things but doesn't know anything?"

Ji Yunqing replied casually: "So you're going to kill him directly?"

Would it be a bit hasty?

The manager wanted to say a few more words, but after hearing this.

Kill directly?

He shuddered immediately.

"Please spare my life, my lord. I know everything."

Then he said: "I was impulsive and passed off inferior goods as good ones. Please spare my life, Your Majesty."

Ji Yunqing: I understand, this guy is greedy for money.

"anything else?"

"besides?"

The manager was terrified, and as time went by, his mind became increasingly confused.

Finally, under the cold pressure of Eunuch Shi, he even confessed that he had not changed his shorts for a month.

Everyone present: ...Who on earth wants to listen to this?

However, no matter how much he asked, the manager didn't say anything about the pink and blue flower. Did he really not know about it, or was he hiding it very clearly?

The steward, who was lying limp on the ground, was dragged away, leaving only two little maids.

King Zhao looked at the two and said, "Raise your heads."

One of the maids quickly raised her head with a nervous look on her face, while the other maid slowly raised her beautiful face.

Just then a gust of wind blew, ruffling the little maid's hair and brushing across her pink and fair cheeks.

Although the maid raised her pretty face, her watery eyes were shyly lowered. Only her long and thick eyelashes trembled slightly, revealing the beauty's nervousness.

It’s so beautiful!

Ji Yunqing praised in his heart.

However, she also recognized the identity of this person, it was Miss Qian Er.

Before, the two maids had been lowering their heads, so she couldn't see their faces clearly, which is why she only recognized them now.

A cold voice called Ji Yunqing back to his senses: "Who planted this flower?"

Miss Qian bowed again, revealing her slender waist like a young willow, and her voice was so soft that it could squeeze water out of her: "My Lord, this servant..."

Before she could finish, King Zhao said directly: "Take them away and interrogate them thoroughly."

This time, not only Miss Qian was stunned, but even Ji Yunqing was stunned.

Is this over?

The previous manager at least asked a few questions, but now it’s this person’s turn and he doesn’t ask any questions?

Eunuch Shi asked for instructions: "Your Majesty, if none of them is true——"

King Zhao sneered and said, "That's strange. You didn't even know there was something extra in this land. Let's punish him."

So...so fast!

At least let's have a trial with coercion and inducement.

Seeing Ji Yunqing still looking at the maid, King Zhao's tone became even colder: "If you don't say anything, I will deal with it directly."

Seeing that Eunuch Shi was directing people to drag the two maids away, one of the maids suddenly knelt down and said, "Prince, it was her, she did it all!"

The younger maid pointed at Miss Qian and said anxiously, "I clearly saw it once.

She secretly scattered the seeds while sweeping the floor, and a few days later, an unfamiliar flower grew."

The little maid spoke eloquently: "I originally wanted to report to the steward, but Qian Erni always changed the subject with various reasons. Now that I think about it, she did it on purpose."

Qian Erni also knelt down quickly, and moaned, "Your Majesty, please understand. I don't know anything about flowers and plants. I just followed your orders. I am wronged!"

Then big drops of tears fell down her cheeks, what a beautiful woman crying, like pear blossoms in the rain.

Ji Yunqing watched carefully from the side, thinking about when she could use this trick.

This trick is great, it makes the crying look really nice, but it’s a little hard to learn.

Qian Erni felt a little shy when she realized Ji Yunqing was looking at her, but she couldn't help but quietly adjusted the angle to make herself look more delicate and beautiful.

Seeing that Ji Yunqing was still staring at the maid, King Zhao's face became even colder.
