Chapter 92 Send Away
After Ji Yunqing said this, King Zhao certainly would not blame her for such a thing.
but……
Prince Zhao suddenly spoke up: "It seems that Miss Chengcheng is just so-so. She is not even as good as Concubine Ji who can only read a few characters. She is wasting her reputation by seeking fame."
"Huh? Me?"
Ji Yunqing looked up blankly. What did she just hear?
Who can't beat whom?
This not-so-clever reaction was far from the person who could rival the talented woman as King Zhao said, but King Zhao remained calm.
"Zeng has been lying all along and has betrayed my trust. Considering our past relationship, I will not pursue the matter any further and will just send her to the manor in the western suburbs."
When Ji Yunqing heard this, it was like hearing something like "exile to Ningguta".
However, by comparison, this distance is much closer. Concubine Zhu went there at the beginning, and later when Concubine Mei gave birth to a child, she would also be sent there.
Three people can play Landlord.
Upon hearing this, Zeng Cheng's face changed drastically, filled with grief and indignation.
"Your Highness, how come my poetry cannot compare to that little bitch?" he pointed at Ji Yunqing and asked.
Ji Yunqing touched her nose awkwardly. Others can write poems, but she can't. She really can't compare.
Fortunately, she is very thick-skinned.
I simply boasted: "Sister Zeng, your poem seemed to be better just now, but my words are obviously more emotional. Those who understand will understand!"
Zeng Cheng didn't want to understand. He could accept that he had failed in the fight for favor, but he couldn't accept being surpassed in talent by someone else, especially when that person was the person he hated the most.
Seeing Zeng Cheng looked unhappy, as if he wanted to eat her alive, Ji Yunqing quickly approached King Zhao.
In modern times, when medical disputes occur, it is best to hide behind valuable equipment. In ancient times, the most valuable person on the scene was King Zhao.
There's nothing wrong with hiding behind him.
King Zhao looked at this coward who used him as a shield speechlessly, and said, "Take her away!"
Afterwards, Zeng Cheng didn't even have a chance to resist and was dragged away.
Before the end of the day, he was taken to a farm outside the city in a horse-drawn carriage.
Looking at Ji Yunqing, after watching the prince deal with his beloved concubine, she became more alert.
I secretly warned myself not to mess with this man. This guy doesn't even need to make up a decent excuse to deal with anyone.
This is the real right!
Ji Yunqing felt envious again. Why didn’t she get to dress like this guy? She could do it even if she wanted to be an emperor in the future!
King Zhao saw that this usually lively and bold woman was silent, like a little quail, and it was obvious that she was frightened.
He patted her dog's head casually.
"If you don't obey, this is what will happen to you"
Ji Yunqing carefully looked at his expression, and made sure that he had no intention of "dealing with her", so she boldly flattered him.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will always be your most loyal lackey!"
Eunuch Shi, who was serving on the side, said: "......?"
You are a lackey, then what am I?
King Zhao glanced at her and said with a half-smile: "Come in!"
As he spoke, he stretched out his long legs and walked into the front yard first.
Ji Yunqing hurriedly followed, jogging all the way and looking left and right at the scene in the yard.
It is different from the kind of expensive and luxurious imagined, nor is it the grand and elegant layout of the princess's place, nor is it the pastoral scenery of Ji Yunqing's farmhouse. Prince Zhao's place is rather simple.
Of course, it is also possible that she herself has no vision and cannot see the value.
After a quick glance, Ji Yunqing followed closely into the study.
This study is quite large. Ji Yunqing thinks it is bigger than her bedroom and living room combined.
On one side was a large desk with rice paper on it. Various pen holders, inkstones, and chairs were placed in the empty space. There was also a large bookcase against the wall behind it, which contained a lot of things.
On the other side, there are a dozen large bookshelves, each of which is two or three meters high and at least ten meters long.
"You came to me just to stand still?"
Ji Yunqing was determined to perform well and quickly retracted her gaze: "My Lord, I have something to tell you."
She told the whole story of what happened to her.
"Finished?"
Ji Yunqing nodded and stared at him with burning eyes.
"Just stay?"
King Zhao said: "You are such a coward!"
Ji Yunqing's eyes widened: "Isn't this scary? I'm almost scared to death. Your Majesty, don't just feel sorry for me in your heart, show it a little bit appropriately!"
"When did the king feel sorry for--" you?
Before King Zhao finished speaking, Ji Yunqing had already hugged his strong arms.
"Your Majesty, I've run into trouble and I don't know what to do. I'm here to ask you for advice."
"You know, I've been timid since I was a child."
When she hugged King Zhao, he changed his tone: "Forget it, this matter is not your fault. Don't accept any messy things in the future. Before the child is born, someone will bring you food on time."
This is what Ji Yunqing wanted, and he said happily: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Although she grew vegetables, they were all vegetarian. Not only was she tired of eating them, but they could not meet the nutritional needs of a pregnant woman. Moreover, the food in the kitchen was the easiest place to start.
As for other places, Ji Yunqing will take precautions.
This was not enough. Ji Yunqing knew how to take advantage of the situation. He took out a piece of paper that was already full of words from his sleeve and started cheating openly.
"Your Highness, my affairs are all trivial, but the child is getting older and older, so it's time to get ready."
"as follows--"
"First, the midwife who delivered the baby, a reliable doctor, and the various tools and medicinal materials used."
"Secondly, for the wet nurse after the birth and the servants who take care of the child, it is best to find a wet nurse who has just given birth, as she is more suitable for the newborn baby."
"Third, I don't have the money to buy all kinds of small quilts, small clothes, small swaddling clothes and small diapers for the baby after the birth. Please help me, Your Majesty."
"fourth……"
King Zhao listened to the lines being read out, then simply snatched the paper and read it himself.
The more I looked at it, the more I thought, “Why do we need so many things?”
Ji Yunqing was pregnant and couldn't compete with him. She tilted her head so she couldn't see and continued, "That's right. I just added a little bit to whatever I thought of. Before I knew it, there were so many.
I have never given birth before, so maybe we won’t be ready by then!”
"Or does Your Majesty think that your seed will grow easily and there is no need to worry about it?"
"Fine"
Although King Zhao thought that the woman had a bad attitude, he saw that it was what "his seed" needed, so he had to give it to her.
"Go back and wait, I will prepare these things myself"
After hearing the accurate answer, Ji Yunqing achieved his goal. He did not linger for too long. He let go of King Zhao's arm and said goodbye decisively.
After the person left, King Zhao lowered his eyes to look at the arm that had just been hugged by him and was still warm. Was it just... used and then thrown away?
