When Gao Renkuan received the news reported by Mrs. Wang, it was indeed Fang Qi who ruined his reputation outside, and he was angry and ruined, but he was confident that the reputation accumulated by the family over the years could not be destroyed because of these gossips, as long as the momentum of the Gao family was still in full swing, after a period of time, and when the new public opinion replaced the old public opinion, the Qin family's methods would not cause any damage to the Gao family.

The top priority is that he must maintain this upward momentum, and there must be no mistakes in the marriage with the Gong family.

Gao Renkuan hurriedly explained to Gong You in person.

This Gong You used to be a small eunuch, after his daughter married into the Wei Palace's concubine, he was shocked to realize that he could be enterprising and enterprising in the power field, he was originally a role of drilling camp for profit, not an inch of hard bones, to be honest, he didn't care whether Gao Renkuan was fake or really straight, he agreed to marry Gao Renkuan, and he did take a fancy to the Gao family's false reputation as a famous family, as well as the real benefits of Yan Chi Qinggu.

His daughter is already a concubine, he does not compete with Concubine Sima's father, but he is not willing to always look up to Empress Chen's family, that is, the snort of the Duke of Liang, Empress Chen's only son died, Gong Guifei had the opportunity to give birth to her eldest son first, and then help promote, and the concubine had a great chance to replace the queen.

It was Gong You who was very patient to listen to Gao Renkuan's explanation.

"The old and unscrupulous Sun Liuniang, don't look at it as a son-in-law, because the eldest woman in the family blindly spoils her daughter, and in terms of temperament and morality, she is far inferior to Qi Niang, but even so, the old man dares to guarantee that Liu Niang is nothing more than obsessed with the word love, and will never dare to kill such a poisonous thing as murder. Everything is the daughter of the Qin family, marrying Liuniang, Qin's scheming and vicious methods, and because she is the housewife of the National Teacher's Mansion, so she can design such a careful trap, even Yan Guoshi, this time was deceived by the Qin family! ”

Gong You only cared about one thing: "Gao Weng Zhen and Yan Guoshi resolved this contradiction?" Yan Guoshi is looking at Zhao Xianggong's failure to Gao Weng in the past? ”

"Gong Hou, don't listen to the rumors spread by the Qin family, how can the old man be a shameless person who took advantage of the old relationship with Zhao Xianggong and forced Yan Guoshi to repay? In fact, Yan Guoshi made friends with the old decay in Chengdu Mansion back then, and when he tasted and talked, he and the old decay were like forgetful friends, so when Liuniang was obsessed, although it was the wishful thinking of the unscrupulous woman, the national teacher still refused to ignore the daughter of the Gao family too much. This time there was indeed a misunderstanding, and in a fit of anger sent Liuniang to the official office, but when he listened to the old man's defense, the national teacher immediately told Xingguo Gong that there was another hidden situation in this case, so the small punishment was a big precept, and still took Liuniang back to the teacher's mansion. ”

Gong You touched his chin and thought about it, no matter how many of Gao Renkuan's words were true or false, but Gao did not die of the torture rod like that Liu, and it was indeed not a lie that he was taken back to the National Master's Mansion, which shows that Yan Chi did not despise Gao Renkuan no matter what the reason, of course, in comparison, Yan Chi was more enthusiastic about Qin Xiangdi, a serious in-law, but with his current status, he could not climb Qin Xiangdi.

Gao Renkuan's trip can be regarded as preserving this marriage.

But Rong Guogong was disgusted by Gao Renkuan, and called Xiang in this day to knock in: "In order to protect his granddaughter, the surname Gao killed the daughter of Jiang Jinhou, and he also wanted to try me to take the risk of being guilty and unwarranted to help him suppress the Qin family?!" ”

Xiang Jin actually had the same idea as Gong You this time: "Gao Gong did a bit of a good job in this matter, but he was also forced to be helpless, and in the final analysis, the responsibility should indeed be blamed on Liu Ji, she exposed her identity and did not realize it, so she fell into the trap set by the Qin family, and Gao Gong was able to keep Gao Ji, which shows that in Yan Wudu's mind, he really attaches importance to the Gao family."

Zhou Gong should know that it is impossible to fight for Yan to work with us for no reason at this time, so Liu Ji is actually useless in the National Teacher's Mansion. At present, only by relying on Gao Renkuan, there is still a chance to persuade Yan to agree to be a peacemaker between me and Qin Xun for no reason to resolve this crisis. ”

Xiang Jin is determined to do something with Rong Guogong, but the premise of the move is to protect himself, he doesn't want to fight Qin Xun to the death now, because as long as the move is successful, cleaning up Qin Xun is simply useless for him.

He thought that Yan Chi was very likely to be persuaded by Gao Renkuan to be a peacemaker when he didn't know that they dared to do something, and first solved his immediate danger.

"And if the Queen Mother can force the Qin family to do that, the Queen Mother's prestige will rise sharply, so that the official family will have no excuse to prevent the Queen Mother from getting involved in politics, which is harmful to our plan, so I still hope that Zhou Gong, don't give up a good move because of a dead chess."

Zhou Quan was persuaded by Xiang Jin again.

So the Empress Dowager Zhou held a banquet in the Cining Hall and summoned all the foreign women.

Fang Qi naturally became one of the callers, she was of course very unenthusiastic about wearing the layers of life women's clothes on a hot day, and entering the palace to listen to training, but there was nothing to complain about this matter, who made her the wife of the national teacher? Since she has enjoyed the honor of Mrs. National Teacher, she should assume the responsibility of Mrs. National Teacher, fortunately, Yan Chi is only a courtier, not a clan, and the Empress Dowager Zhou can not summon her into the palace every once in a while.

Fang Qi saw that Yan Chi had already dressed the clothes that belonged to the position of national teacher, black clothes and red clothes, with a golden leather shackle around his waist, and the soles of his feet stepped on Yunzhi boots.

"Yan Lang, this is also preparing to enter the palace?" Fang Qi was given a crown of flowers and hairpins to her by the maidservants, and she had both incense powder and rouge on her face today, and she was not made up at this time, but she already felt that her body was bound by these things, as if she was carrying a shackle.

However, looking at Yan Chi's clothes, I felt that he was still so freewheeling.

Yan Chi sat down on the low couch with his arms on his knees: "Madam was embarrassed by the Empress Dowager Zhou, of course I will not sit idly by." ”

He even took a box of rouge and played with it, opened it and smelled it, and then covered it, and did not seem to dislike the color and fragrance.

"Madame has a number in her heart, what reason will Empress Dowager Zhou use to put pressure on you today?"

"It's not still for Gao's." Fang Qi didn't want to look at Yan Chi's casual appearance, she looked at herself in the mirror who had to sit upright: "Empress Dowager Zhou has become the empress dowager, and it is unlikely that she will still stare at me for personal grudges like in the past, but I can't imagine that I am so law-abiding, and Empress Dowager Zhou can find fault with me." ”

Yan Chi wanted Fang Qi to leave some curiosity, lest this girl have no expectations for what will happen next.

"I just want to remind Madame that you can use Concubine Sima to turn around."

"Can Empress Dowager Zhou still collude with Concubine Sima this time?" Strange Dao of the Aromatic Period.

The first emperor died, and the Empress Dowager Zhou had no choice but to agree with the will to respect Yi Xu as the emperor, which of course also caused Yi Xu to have no excuse not to seal the queen of the main palace of the first emperor of the Zhou family as the queen mother, Yi Xu because he has always been suspected of killing his father and usurping the throne, he actually did not dare to compete with the queen mother's party, so that the biological mother and the queen mother of the Zhou family and the queen mother of the two palaces were respected, so Sima could only be named the concubine and given the Ciming Palace.

If it's just a false name, maybe Concubine Sima won't mind, but the Empress Dowager Zhou has repeatedly tried to interfere in politics, as if she is not satisfied with the pampering of Cining Palace, and now Concubine Sima is bound to be hostile to the Empress Dowager Zhou, how can she join forces to deal with others?

Fangqi: What kind of magic do I have, so that the two opposing sides can fight together.

"Sima is greedy for money and power by nature, narrow-minded and quite proud, now she is the mother of the Son of Heaven, although Yi Xu's throne may not be secure, but I have no doubt that she is already looking forward to Sima Yimen, a powerful minister above 10,000 people under one person to defend the country, she even wants to control it, so she will be used by the Zhou family again to use her arrogance and arrogance, and join forces to bully Madame."

Fang Qi sighed.

"But after all, now that the Zhou family has not been eliminated, the Sima family's stupidity still has a limit, and no matter whether she is the queen mother or the concubine, there is also Yi Xu who can clean her up, Madame doesn't need to worry, just delay for a while, I will soon be able to move in for Madame to rescue the soldiers."

Fang period with a crown of nine flower hairpins, dressed in Qingluo embroidered Zhai clothes, to Cining Hall to take a look, but the two who are not seated, there is no shortage of Concubine Sima, not only that, most of the foreign women who were called to accompany the Queen Mother to drink and talk today are also her "enemies" - Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xie are here, Mrs. Rongguo is also there, and the rest of the Fang period does not know at all, and she is also cold-eyed.

Tsk, this Hongmen banquet is very scary.

A few dishes were served, and Fang Qi found chili peppers, which were used as dipping sauce in the form of red oil, and she was just a little complacent in her heart, so she listened to the Empress Dowager Zhou's trouble.

"Today, Mrs. Qin is an old guest."

Xiao Yi suddenly went online: Ah, it turns out that the Queen Mother really doesn't claim to be a mourner.

Fang: What mourning?

She was distracted, so she didn't have time to respond to the Empress Dowager Zhou immediately, and naturally suffered from the disgruntled gaze of both sides.

If the Empress Dowager Zhou was still the queen of Zhou, she would probably be angry with the Fang period, but when she became the queen mother and was forced to seek a position and seize power, the Zhou family actually knew that she had to take the right thing seriously, she didn't care about the Fang period's non-response, and said to herself: "I heard that the chili pepper is a food on the market, which is very popular with the people, and because it has not been seen in the past, and it is not widely planted now, so it is expensive and is given the elegant name of Tianzhen."

Now the defense of the country and the Liao reconciliation, the defense of the country every year are required to pay tribute to the Liao State, so that the ministry treasury tightened, although the increase in business endowment, it is really difficult to alleviate the financial urgency, so the old body wants to ask Mrs. Qin, but willing to pepper seeds and planting details, submitted to the court. From then on, the people are not allowed to plant privately, only produced by the Huangzhuang, and the imperial court pays tribute to Liao, which can be worth several percent of the tribute to Liao. ”

What a high-sounding deception!!

Without waiting for the reaction, Concubine Sima also joined in to assist: "I also heard that in addition to chili peppers, Mrs. Qin also has precious ingredients such as potatoes and tomatoes and their planting and sowing methods. ”

Concubine Sima was very jealous of the huge benefits brought by these ingredients, so as soon as the Empress Dowager Zhou mentioned it to her, she was moved, the Huangzhuang belonged to the royal family, and it was the private land of her children and grandchildren in the future, of course, it also belonged to the Sima family, in addition to offsetting the tribute, the Sima family could use these ingredients to make profits.

"Sanniang, you can share the worries and solve problems for the monarchy, this is the glory of the courtiers, you still don't obey the orders of the queen mother and the concubine?" Mrs. Wang entered the palace today to be an assistant to her cousin Gao Renkuan, and she was the third to open her mouth to exert pressure.

A sneer hung on the corner of Mrs. Rongguo's lips.
