"The Xie family has not been promoted to the Jinshi for many years, so they can't enter the five phases, it's not our fault, right?" Zhang Linchang, the son of Vice Minister Zhang, said with annoyance.

After the death of Prime Minister Xie Fu, Shen Youxing took over as Prime Minister, and the position of deputy prime minister vacated by Shen Youxing should be filled by the Xie family according to common sense.

But the rule of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom is that non-Jinshi are not allowed to enter the Five Phases, even if they are from the Five Phases family.

Xie Fu's two eldest sons, Xie Dongyi and Xie Dongming, have been martial arts and tired of literature since they were children, and they are not material for the imperial examination at all, and they have not even been qualified to be children.

And when he passed away, his youngest son Xie Dongli was only three years old, and he didn't know if he was literate or enlightened, let alone succeeded.

And what about the people in the Xie family's other room......

The people of the Zhang family glanced at each other, and they all looked away with tacit understanding, not to say anything.

Empress Qi smiled reservedly, lowered her eyes and held the royal blue inlaid white plum blossom enamel handstove in her hand, and took a bamboo skewer to pluck the ashes in the handhoven.

The hall was silent for a while, only wisps of green smoke wafted from the mouths of the white jade red-crowned crane incense burners on both sides of the Danqi throne, which was the fragrance of ambergris used by the emperor.

When Deputy Zhang saw that everyone stopped talking, he had to break the silence and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is really loving to the queen's mother, this ambergris is only used by the mother in the inner palace." ”

“…… In fact, this palace does not like the taste of ambergris, and prefers agarwood incense. But His Majesty insisted on rewarding, but it was disrespectful not to use it. Empress Qi raised a slender jade finger and put the hand stove on the table beside her, "Okay, announce your entry into the palace today, let's only talk about family affairs, regardless of monarchs and ministers." The affairs of the court are the affairs of His Majesty, and the palace has never understood them. ”

"The mother is too modest. Who doesn't know this court, His Majesty treats Niangniang like a jewel, and even the court will listen to Niangniang's opinion. Especially now that His Majesty is unwell, the imperial grandson is by His Majesty's side day and night, and many excerpts are heard to be approved by the queen's mother......" Zhang Xiao said tentatively.

"Nonsense, nothing." Empress Qi smiled and said that she was against it, but she was really happy.

The higher her status in the Eastern Yuan Kingdom, the more reassuring the imperial brother in Northern Qi will be......

The people in the hall exchanged a few more words before Empress Qi raised her hand, "Okay, you guys go down." Say hello to the old lady on behalf of the main palace. ”

When Empress Qi married into the Eastern Yuan Kingdom, only the old lady of the Zhang family was the first to stand up to greet her, so that Queen Qi slowly got through the difficulties and was accepted by the family of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom, so Queen Qi took special care of the Zhang family.

The Zhang family bowed and retreated.

It didn't take long for Xie Dongli to follow the eunuch who announced his entry into the palace into the Changchun Palace.

"I've seen the Queen Mother." Xie Dongli bowed in the main hall of the Changchun Palace.

Empress Qi leaned forward with a smile, glanced at Xie Dongli carefully, and said, "I heard that Xie Zhuangyuan has been very busy recently?" ”

"Serving the country, why do you want to talk about it?" Xie Dongli raised his head without humility or arrogance, and quietly looked at Queen Qi at eye level.

Empress Qi couldn't help but squint her eyes, and her beautiful face showed a cat-like seductive expression, she looked at Xie Dongli like this for a while, until she felt bored, and then raised her hand in a sneer, "Give me a seat." ”

A palace maid walked in with a brocade pestle and put it next to Xie Dongli.

"Thank you, Queen Mother." Xie Dongli bowed again and sat down.

Empress Qi sat upright on the throne on the Dan Mound, and the bead curtain on the phoenix crown on her head hung down, covering her face, leaving only a solemn expression, as if the beautiful and beautiful Wushuang just now was just an illusion of others' own affection......

Xie Donglian's face was calm, not like an eighteen-year-old teenager who had just won high school.

"Xie Dongli, this palace announced that you have entered the palace today, and it is entrusted by the Zhang family to mediate the dispute between the two of you."

Xie Dongli smiled, "Our two families have always been peaceful, why do you have disputes?" ”

"East Fence." From Xie Zhuangyuan, to Xie Dongli, and then to Dongli, Queen Qi's address to Xie Dongli became more and more affectionate, "You don't have to hide it from the palace." When you were married to Miss Zhang San, and now you have been divorced by the Zhang family, you must have some grievances in your heart. The Zhang family is worried that if you hold a grudge, it will be unfavorable to them after you pay homage to the prime minister. These are also human nature, what is there to deny? ”

Xie Dongli was a little ridiculous, shook his head and said, "Queen Mother, if the Zhang family thinks so, it means that they have a ghost in their hearts, right?" When a man and a woman get married, it is good to marry two surnames. Miss Zhang San is unwilling to marry and takes the initiative to withdraw from her family, why should she resent the Zhang family, or Miss Zhang San? I should thank them. Otherwise, in the future, a reluctant Miss Zhang San will marry our Xie family, and that will be the scourge of our Xie family. ”

“…… Even if Miss Zhang San is reluctant, but if she marries her, it won't be so strict, right? With the tutor of the Zhang family...... "Queen Qi tried her best to say good things for the Zhang family."

"The tutor of the Zhang family?" Xie Dongli raised his eyes to look at Queen Qi expressionlessly, his expression was solemn, and his jaw was tight, "Don't you know that Miss Zhang San actually met the robbers because she ran away from marriage?" ――When you are not married, you can make a bold escape from marriage, who knows what kind of demon moth will be made after you get married? -- I, Xie Dongli, married a good match, not a resentful couple. ”

Empress Qi was surprised: "...... I don't know. ”

"So the queen has a lot of kindness and understands it in her heart. But Xia did not hold a grudge against the Zhang family, and the Zhang family did not have to be worried. As long as we return the things that belong to our Xie family to the Xie family, I, Xie Dongli, am not the one who will repay him. ”

"Oh? It's great that you can think so. Empress Qi's smile was a little reluctant, she was silent for a moment, and then cheered up again and said: "Although you don't blame them, the Zhang family really can't help it, so they decided to give up the position of deputy minister to you, hoping that you can accept their kindness." ”

This is to sell well to Xie Dongli and let him inherit the favor of the Zhang family.

Since the Xie family withdrew from the five phases, the Zhang family took the opportunity to occupy the position of two deputy ministers.

"Hehe......", Xie Dongli let out a few low laughs, "The Zhang family is really interesting." This phase was originally given to me by the Xie family, how could they give it to me? At the beginning, there was a cousin in my second uncle's family who was once admitted to the Jinshi, but died violently on the eve of the list. Later, the clansmen of the Xie family's side branch tried and failed repeatedly, so that the Zhang family took advantage of it for fifteen years. Now it should be returned to its original owner, but you still want me to accept their favor? ――Don't think it's too beautiful. ”

Queen Qi was stunned, she never expected that Xie Dongli would not buy her account at all!

Empress Qi raised her head, parted the bead curtain in front of her, and stared at Xie Dongli, her bright eyes seemed to be able to speak, and she wanted to speak.

Xie Dongli didn't seem to see Empress Qi's shocked expression, and continued: "...... But the queen mother, you are a person from the inner palace, and it is reasonable that you don't understand the affairs of the court. But the Zhang family should not mislead the queen and trap you in the point of disloyalty and injustice. ”

"I don't understand. It's just to help the Zhang family intercede, why is it disloyal and unjust? Empress Qi snorted coldly.

The palace maids and eunuchs who were familiar with her voice trembled, because the voice represented that the queen mother was already in anger.

"The Zhang family used the queen mother as a gun and instructed the queen mother to interfere with the appointment of the court officials, which put the queen mother in a situation of disloyalty to His Majesty. Niangniang didn't know the inside story, and used the heart of the Zhang family to spend my Xie family's belly, which was to put Niangniang in an unjust situation of loyalty to her ministers. -- This kind of disloyalty and unrighteousness is done completely to play with Niangniang in the palm of the Zhang family, and treat Niangniang as nothing. Niangniang, you should be close to the gentleman, far from the villain! ”
