Qi Jing seemed to be under the control of the regent, but the city was like him, and he had already set up his own spies in the palace. Some were overt, deliberately attracting the regent's attention, and some were hidden deep enough that even the Queen Mother didn't know.

So when Li Si came to the palace to meet the Queen Mother, Qi Jing knew early on that he had been thinking about Li Si's intentions while practicing calligraphy.

"Because the Zheng family and his son were called away by Qi Ling?"

Although Qi Jing had doubts, he didn't quite think so. If he wanted to intercede for Zheng Ce and his son, why didn't he come to him? Although he had no power, he was still the emperor and could speak more effectively than the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother shook her head, her always shrewd eyes full of doubts, "She asked me to send her away, but she only talked to me about her mother and some filthy parents."

The Queen Mother and Li Si's mother were once close friends, but later one entered the palace and the other died early, so the two parties had no contact. The Queen Mother's impression of Li Si was still the same as when she was brought to the palace to play by her mother when she was a little girl.

.

It is an inexplicable thing for a person who has no contact with you for a long time to suddenly come over to commemorate a common acquaintance with you, and Li Silai's gap is such a coincidence, as if people deliberately misunderstand that she is here to pay attention to Zheng Zheng.

The father and son are begging for mercy, but they are not just begging for mercy for the Zheng family and son, because there is no need to send people away just to beg for mercy.

For more than ten years, the Queen Mother's family has been unhappy. She has relied on guessing people's hearts and shrewd calculations to keep Qi Jing safe and alive to this day, and has suppressed the signs of Qi Ling usurping the throne to this day. She considers herself to be a person with a sharp mind.

But for a moment, I couldn’t see through Li Si’s actions.

At yesterday's banquet, the singer came out in response to Zheng Rong's shout, and at that time, she happened to relieve Qi Jing from Qi Ling's difficulties. If you don't think about it, she really seemed to be trying to save him.

The mother and son looked at each other with the same cunning look. Li Si had brought pillows to them. Qi Jing wanted to interfere with the war in the north. In the past few days, he was worried that nothing happened in the capital to divert Qi Ling's attention.

Li, the Zheng family and his son are a good choice.

The fact that the Zheng family married Li Fang's granddaughter is enough to attract Qi Ling's attention. If Li Si is still as sick and honest as before, and Qi Ling, who has grown arrogant, doesn't care much, then

Li Si suddenly entered the palace and stayed alone with the Queen Mother for a while. It was difficult for him not to think about it, not to mention that the singer of the Zheng family assassinated Qi Ling.

At this time, the little eunuch called outside, Qi Jing called people in, and the little eunuch passed on what was reported from outside to Qi Jing.

"The regent asked the Zheng family to donate all their wealth to fund the military."

After hearing this, the Queen Mother showed a smile on her beautiful face, "Emperor, Li Si's mother once had good relations with the Ai family. Now her husband's family is very righteous and has donated all the family property. However, Li Si is still ill and has no money. But

How to sell medicine?"

Qi Jing also understood the Queen Mother's intention and asked the young eunuch to lead people to the Earl's Mansion with a generous reward, and also gave the Zheng family and his son an imperial edict of praise.

When the young eunuch arrived at Zheng's house, Qi Ling's people had just left, and the entire Zheng house had been evacuated. Zheng Ce and his son were sitting in the empty yard in a daze, while Mrs. Zheng was crying hard on the side.

The little eunuch looked around and couldn't find Li Si, so he asked Zheng Ce.

Zheng Ce looked at the little eunuch, then at the dozen people behind the little eunuch and the gold and silver treasures they held in their hands. His eyes lit up, Zheng Rong's eyes also lit up, and Mrs. Zheng stopped crying.

"Father, what is this?"

Zheng Ce looked hopeless just now, but now his face is radiant. Although these gold and silver treasures are not as large as their entire family property, it is enough for them to rebuild their family business.

The young eunuch was very polite to Zheng Ce's family, looking at them as if they were noble and admirable people with lofty ideals, "Your Majesty, the Emperor heard that your family donated all their property to raise military pay, and issued an imperial edict to commend them.

, please quickly invite the Crown Prince’s wife to come out and receive the imperial edict together.”

Zheng Ce immediately beamed with joy and hurried to call Li Si.

Mrs. Zheng had also wiped away her tears, and the three of them looked at the gold and silver eagerly. This was a timely help.

Soon, Li Sishi arrived. Although her condition had improved somewhat and she could get out of bed and move around freely, her face was still pale after walking a lot, and her frail waist seemed to be broken by the wind.

When everyone arrived, everyone knelt down to receive the edict. The little eunuch finished reading the imperial edict and handed it to Zheng Ce. Then he hurriedly helped Li Si up and said to her: "The Queen Mother is considerate of the Crown Prince's wife and is afraid of Ning Jibo."

After donating the family wealth, your medicine is gone, so I specially rewarded you with these gold and silver so that you can recover without any worries."

"Thank you, Queen Mother, for your thoughtfulness." Li Si thanked her with gratitude, while the Zheng family, his son, and Mrs. Zheng looked confused.

The face full of expectation and pie-in-the-sky joy cracked in an instant.

Zheng Ce didn't believe his ears, so he grabbed the young eunuch and asked, "Father-in-law, didn't the emperor praise us? Then, what about our reward?"

As a count, Zheng Ce never thought that one day he would do such a shameful thing by catching someone and wanted to reward him. However, he had no choice but to ask with a shameless face. He was penniless.

How will we live in the future?

An Earl's Mansion in Nuo Da was so miserable that it couldn't afford to support a single servant, so it really became the laughing stock of the entire capital.

The little eunuch raised his eyes and gestured to the imperial edict in his hand, "Isn't the emperor's imperial edict the highest reward? Ning Jibo can rest assured that the emperor sees your sincere heart and will remember it in his heart.
