Chapter 168: Retreat to Defense
"Retreat is advance." Chen Ju also laughed, his appearance was not outstanding, but his smile was like a spring breeze, "There is no way to do it, and there is a lot of miscarriage." Its color is the same, unpredictable. If the minister is a minister driven by a noble concubine, he will warn her in the first half of the sentence, but the minister is the whip of His Majesty, so he will give the second half of the sentence to His Majesty. β
Meaning, a person's emotional excess, there is no character, too much will lose the law. If his expression remained the same, no one would be able to guess what was going on in his mind.
Huang Daoqi was speechless. He didn't have much to do with this person, but he felt that he was talking in a set of ways, and it made sense, so he was a little confused. It's just that this person's mind is hard to guess, not something that ordinary people can understand, so let's drink some tea and calm down. He picked up his teacup.
Fan Jiang is a person who is good at admonishing, but fortunately Chen Ju didn't go to her, otherwise his situation will become more and more difficult, and it is possible that he will not be able to turn over for the rest of his life. Yuan Lingjun's expression moved slightly, the light reflected on the lotus leaf in her eyes, she sighed, supporting half of her face, "What does that Tingwei Ping think, what is my strategy for holding the noble concubine?" She picked up the smashed teacup.
"Your concubine's restraint ability is not ordinary, and she knows very well what she should and should not do. Why don't you hold her up higher. β
Isn't it high enough? Do you have to put her on your head? Yuan Lingjun silently rolled his eyes.
Chen Ju said there unhurriedly: "The Fan family is in the limelight, so please let the noble concubine come to the court to weigh the system, crown the honorific title of 'Majesty', and enjoy the privilege of being called 'I'." β
Yuan Ling raised his head in amazement. Huang Daoqi trembled obviously, the tea was directly choked, and he coughed to the side, "Please forgive the minister for being rude." β
When his flushed face calmed down, Yuan Lingjun asked, "Doctor Guanglu is in charge, what do you think?" β
"With all due respect, how can anyone know that there are tigers in the mountains who prefer the tigers, and to do so is to give away all the hard-won things, no, no, it's too risky, and we propose, the concubine will doubt it." Huang Daoqi shook his head resolutely.
Chen Ju explained: "This proposal does not need to be spoken by our mouths. As long as we let out some rumors and incite courtiers with such intentions in the court, there will naturally be people on that side to propose it for us. β
"I'll see." Ignoring Huang Daoqi's surprised eyes, she knocked on the teacup at her feet, and finally made up her mind, "Lin Xiang, Cen Miao, Lu Yaoxue...... If they keep the status quo, they won't get into trouble, and if you explain to them, this is my command, and those who understand me will understand. β
Fan Jiang's gradual encroachment has threatened the majesty of the Heavenly Family, and her soaring ambition and desire for power have driven her to a higher position. It was once possible to get Baling out of Lin'an's control, but now standing in Lin'an, it is a matter of time before he embarks on the road of rebellion.
It's enough to make a mistake once, and you can't do it again on her.
She made a decision on such a big matter without discussing it with anyone, and when she returned to the palace, she thought about it and thought about it, but she couldn't let go of it in her heart. So she poured a cold syrup made of yellow orange, curled up on the reed mat and slept quietly, and soon fell asleep.
When she woke up again, she vaguely heard Qu Yi talking outside, she got up and put on her shoes, and accidentally touched the lantern. Kunjiao and an attendant helped it up.
Qu Yi walked in, his robe was lightly belted, it was rare to see him dressed so casually.
"I heard about His Majesty's decision."
There are only 90,000 people who can sue him, but he is not angry, which means that she has done the right thing. Yuan Lingjun breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, "Fortunately, the imperial court knows that I don't take care of things, and the prince will handle it on my behalf, otherwise the actions of the lieutenant and eunuch of the branch court will make her suspicious." What did the court lieutenant and the prince say? β
"Something to do with Princess Yang Zhai, most of the old ministers who helped her escape were arrested, the main offenders, the noble concubines ordered the three clans, and the rest were assassinated. In addition, the princess is still in prison and wants to see you. Qu Yi handed her the book, but she didn't answer, and called again.
Lost his mind again. Yuan Lingjun took the book and didn't look at it, "Oh, she's too bad-tempered, I don't want to see her." But why did she see me? She is such a smart and cunning person, she chooses between two paths and knows what is best for her. I guess she just wanted to be humiliated in front of her face and vent her anger. β
Qu Yi shook his head, "I can't interfere in the affairs of the Yuan clan, so if you don't want to see it, you won't see it." β
At the beginning of September, the Fan family built a temple, the southern river burst the embankment, the downstream suffered a disaster, the county officials hurriedly played the court, asked for appropriation for disaster relief, Fan Guifei urgently allocated the treasury silver to save the displaced people in the fire and water, and ordered the court to pray for food and blessings. In mid-September, the imperial court announced the marriage, and the eldest princess of Yang Zhai was married, and the wedding date was scheduled for the beginning of spring next year.
When the news came to the palace, Yuan Ling couldn't help but laugh. Fan Guifei refused to mention 'I', which was expected, less than three times, and the appearance had to be enough.
The frost rustled under the corridor, and the shadow cast a mottled shadow on the stone steps. She stepped on the clogs and turned around, her expression in a trance for a moment, "It seems that someone has been peeping in the dark recently." β
"No, 90,000 are guarding here, who dares to mess around." Kunjiao still looked around. In case of 90,000 omissions, it is not good to mix in and work carefully.
"Maybe I'm hallucinating again, and I can't keep up with my energy lately, and I've been recognizing the wrong person." Yuan Lingjun closed his eyes vigorously.
As soon as the two of them entered the hall, half of their figures leaned out from behind the bushes adjacent to the garden path, holding the fingers of the eating table tightly, with ten distinct knuckles, and a pair of dark eyes under their eyebrows revealing the light of the forest.
"Don't do anything, what are you doing here, don't think about being lazy." The sudden appearance of the palace envoy interrupted the palace maid's thoughts.
From the concubines to the palace people, there are very strict palace etiquette training, but then the palace people and eunuchs who are strictly trained also have times of rudeness, since the emperor and the prince came to the palace to escape the summer, there are always one or two naΓ―ve little palace ladies can't help but be curious to come and peek at the grace and appearance of the princess, and the palace maids who can't enter the inner court even inquire about the prince's bedroom, and enter the inner hall in the name of serving pastries and melons and fruits. The palace envoy was not surprised, and he was not stupid, he didn't know what the palace maid was thinking, so most people couldn't even pass his level, and they were stopped by shouting before they got close.
The palace maid's facial features are hidden in the night, and she can't see clearly, only a mole at the corner of her mouth is very conspicuous. "Concubine, let's go back." She bowed and left with the table.
Seeing her swaying in Nana and disappearing into the garden path, the palace envoy exhaled sullenly, "Move that person's mind, and don't weigh it." What happened to the palace maids these days? "If you want to get married, you have stayed up enough to get out of the palace, why are you staring at other people's husbands, Xiao Xianglan Gongzi, if you have the ability, you will be the empress." The palace envoy complained silently...... However, at a casual glance just now, she is really a charming daughter, and her every move is full of charm.
The palace envoy shrank his neck in horror and ran away. (To be continued.) )
