Chapter 113 Fame spread far and wide
When the queen saw the words on the scroll, she felt a mixture of disappointment, gloating, and heartache.
After all, he was his own son. The whole world would belong to him in the future, but now he couldn't even get a woman.
But, oh~ she still wanted to laugh out loud, what should she do? The queen pursed her lips tightly, enduring it with great difficulty.
One of these paintings is so wonderful, what about the others?
The queen moved her chair excitedly and looked at the paintings hanging on the wall one by one. Sure enough, there was a picture of a lady on the back of each painting, and the content of each picture was different.
There is the beauty's fierceness when she holds a sword, her erudition and wisdom when she writes, her mysterious domineering aura when she kills people everywhere, and her charming and enchanting charm when she is slightly drunk~
This is an all-round girl who is as quiet as a virgin, as agile as a rabbit, and capable of both literature and martial arts.
The only thing in common among the beauties in the paintings is that their heads are always plain, without any extra jewelry, and sometimes their clothes are old and simple. It can be guessed that they are girls of ordinary status.
But such an ordinary young woman did something earth-shaking, so she attracted worldwide attention, and even the proud prince was attracted to her.
And the queen just happened to know a woman with such characteristics. She was the stunning figure that had been making the rounds in the capital recently. She was Song Jia Qingwan, the girl who had taken down the Seven Slave Saints in one fell swoop.
After this incident happened, the girl became completely famous. There were so many people who wanted to marry her that even the palace received several requests for marriage.
But for some reason the emperor did not approve it, and she did not approve it either, and of course she did not want to interfere in other people's affairs.
Fortunately, no decree was issued, otherwise my son would have been dissatisfied.
Look at this naughty kid. When he is happy, he calls the girl a little wild cat. When he is angry, he calls her Song Qingwan with both her full name. The painting is almost always about what earth-shattering things the little wild cat has done today.
From the words written between the lines, we can see that he looked proud and honored, and was completely immersed in the situation.
Is this still the prince? That cold-hearted prince could actually be so greasy, it was simply unbelievable.
Paying too much attention to a woman may be a taboo for an emperor, but she is a mother, and the queen hopes that her children can live with flesh and blood.
However, Song Qingwan, who could make the prince live a human life, made the queen very curious.
She hung all the paintings back on the wall, put the chair back in place, and then sat there for a long time to calm herself down before slowly walking out of the room.
Just then, the eunuch came over with some snacks. "My lady, where would you like to have your snacks? I will bring them to you right away."
The queen put her hands behind her back and glanced at the young eunuch, "Little Master, I want to ask you, has the crown prince behaved in any unusual way recently?"
The prince's room was full of paintings of the girl, he must have known about it, right? He kept it a secret so well that even the emperor and empress couldn't see the slightest clue.
"His Highness has been in good health recently, in a good mood, diligent and hardworking, and occasionally drinks a little wine. In short, please rest assured, Your Majesty, His Highness is doing well."
The eunuch answered happily when he was young, saying that if his master was happy, he would be happy too.
The queen immediately rolled her eyes. Isn't this just bullshit, the kind that's like taking off pants.
This East Palace, no matter what time or whoever it is, is as tight-lipped as a river clam and nothing useful can be pried out.
Humph, if you guys don't tell me, can't I go out of the palace to check it out myself? Yes, of course I have to bring the emperor along~
Without waiting for the crown prince to leave court, the queen hurried away with a group of palace maids.
Only after she had gone far away did the eunuch in his childhood tell his subordinates, "Go tell His Highness that the Queen was here and stayed in the study for a quarter of an hour. She was in a very good mood when she left."
Therefore, unless the prince wants to, the things happening in the East Palace will remain a secret forever.
Li Minghe's idea was that since he was making slow progress with Song Qingwan, he might as well throw more people in to stir things up. Facing the pressure from her elders, could she be so shameless?
Song Qingwan didn't know that she was being thought of like this. She took Le Fei and others into the city, but the Shitou brothers and sisters were not only dirty, but also sick. So it was not suitable for them to go to the Song family. The Song family had a premature baby with a weak constitution, and even common diseases could be easily transmitted.
So she asked Xiuniang to take the two children back to the inn to wash up, and then go to the clinic to see a doctor, and then talk about it after they recovered.
However, Shi Tou was very uneasy, fearing that he would become a burden and be abandoned, so he told Song Qingwan his secret without reservation.
"Girl, actually, my skill in making fireworks is not completely useless. As long as you want, Shitou can serve you at any time."
Firecrackers? Aren't they just bombs? Of course Song Qingwan can make them too. She didn't expect to meet a fellow trader. "Since you have a skill, why are you wandering around?"
Ancient techniques were almost all passed down from generation to generation, so this can be said to be a secret skill. With this kind of technique, one should be able to support oneself.
Speaking of this, Shitou suddenly became sad, "Making firecrackers is popular in our village, but suddenly one day, the village official asked us to develop more powerful firecrackers.
My father said that it was an immoral act and refused to do it, so he took my brother and me and escaped. Not long after that, he was injured and fell ill and died.
My father told me that I was still young and should not abuse my skills, otherwise I would be found by the head of the village and it would be terrible.
But now I have a girl, I am not afraid, I am a useful person, if the girl asks me to make firecrackers I will do it. "
Song Qingwan and Xiuniang were both shocked by Shitou's words. Aren't powerful firecrackers just explosives? Why would a small village head be so good at explosives?
Or was it someone from above who asked him to do it? So this person wanted to rebel? Explosives are usually only used in large-scale wars!
Song Qingwan didn't believe that others, like her, built bombs for retreat. "Where is your village?"
"It's right there." Xiao Shitou mentioned a place, and Song Qingwan secretly took note of it. Maybe she should tell Li Minghe.
"But girl, you can't report it to the police. My father said that there are corrupt officials nowadays. If we encounter a corrupt official, we will be retaliated against."
Song Qingwan smiled. Shitou's father was right to worry. "I won't report to the police, and we won't make firecrackers for the time being. Shitou doesn't need to worry.
You guys should just take care of your health first, I will assign you to work soon, girl, I am a black-hearted boss. "
How could she have the ability to keep an idle person? If she has limited ability, she can only do small things. Everyone in the Song family is like this.
"No, the girl is a good person! I will definitely work hard." Shi Tou thought that his new master must have never seen a real black-hearted boss. That kind of person is terrifying.
Well, there's no need to be so serious with a child. "Go ahead, Xiuniang and the others are all good people." Should I? Song Qingwan wasn't really sure.
After separating from a few others, Song Qingwan took Le Fei and walked towards the Song family.
Le Fei still had a piece of weed in his mouth, looking sloppy and uncouth, but the people in Yangliu Lane were used to it and naturally did not gossip any more.
Many neighbors already knew that Song Qingwan had captured the Seven Slave Saints. It was as if the Song family was possessed by an evil spirit and suddenly rose to prominence. They were no longer an existence that they could afford to offend.
However, after Song Qingwan dealt with the second son of the Gao family, the neighbors began to have a genuine good impression of the Song family and would generally greet them in a friendly manner when they met.
Unless they have a grudge against each other, like Yu Ajiao and Lu Qianze.
It's only been a few days since we last met, but these two people have changed so much!
