Chapter 139: This Queen Is Good
It is undeniable that people have a certain yearning for power, and sometimes they feel resentful because the people around them interfere in their own affairs. Yan Shu is very clear about the way Lan Jing and Lan Qiong get along, Lan Jing's ability is indeed stronger than Lan Qiong, after all, the person who has really stood in front of her over the years has always been Lan Jing.
He has a deep view of this court and people's hearts far more than Lan Qiong, so it is because of this that he was able to choose to kill some people secretly without hesitation when he exiled the Queen Mother's family, because he knew very well that these people would have an impact on the emperor. For Liang Shi's negligence, it is also because Lan Qiong's methods are far inferior to Lan Jing's.
Lan Qiong can do a good job in this emperor's position, but it still needs time to experience. But now that he is already standing in such a high position, is he still willing to go through the training? For example, learn to be cruel, learn to listen to other people's opinions, and learn to see that Lan Jing is really just for the country's livelihood.
Yan Shu had been thinking about how to express this matter tactfully to Lan Qiong, hoping that he would understand the regent's painstaking intentions, but apparently she hadn't found a good way at the moment. But there are some problems that are not solved and there is no solution, so she chooses to find another way, it is better to find the regent······
Lan Jing has been preparing for the border troops these days, and she has always been leaving early and returning late in the palace recently. Yan Shu pinched a time and waited for Lan Jing on the way back.
Lan Jing was coming out of the Qinzheng Palace, his index finger touching the jade wrench on his thumb, thinking about who in the palace could be the commander behind Liang Shi. When Yan Shu saw him, she immediately greeted him, and slowly saluted in front of him and said, "I've seen the regent!" Lan Jing is a person who knows the number of etiquette, and immediately returned the salute: "I've seen the queen!" ”
Yan Shu raised her hand lightly and motioned to walk with Lan Jing for a while, Lan Jing didn't say anything, and the two walked side by side.
"Regent, I wonder if you noticed that the emperor was a little strange recently?" Lan Jing still didn't speak, glanced at Yan Shu, and motioned for her to continue. "The throne was not originally Lan Qiong's, it was just given to him by you. In fact, we have to admit that the emperor's knowledge and experience are still not as good as yours. But since you've already given him both the throne and the nine-story building, why don't you want to give him more? For example, the right to decide and the right to speak, in fact, you don't even need these, just give more sense of existence? ”
Lan Jing heard the reason for this as soon as she heard it, and said with a smile: "I understand, thank you for mentioning it." Yan Shu nodded, and the two didn't communicate too much. Yan Shu stopped where she was, and Lan Jing raised her feet and thought about walking outside the palace. When Yan Shu was about to turn around and go back to the Qinzheng Palace, Lan Jing suddenly turned his head to her and said, "Thanks to you, Lan Qiong's luck, and my royal luck!" ”
After saying that, he really left without looking back. Sitting in the carriage back, Lan Jing tasted what Yan Shu said, and thought about what he had said in front of Lan Qiong recently, as well as Lan Qiong's expression, he frowned slightly, and muttered: "I'm really too anxious." ”
The carriage swayed in the moonlight in the direction of the Regent's Palace, and the warm lights were still shining in the study of the Palace. This is Si Kouxi waiting for him, but no matter how late it is, there will always be a light in this place in the palace, and when he sees this light, Lan Jing will feel that his body and mind are comforted, no matter how much fatigue and danger are waiting for him today or in the future.
He gently pushed open the door, and Xiao Xi inside immediately raised his head, looked at the door, and the two of them collided with each other, and they both smiled. In the past, Lan Jing would persuade Xiaoxi not to wait for him all the time and go to rest earlier, but after saying it a few times, he found that it was useless at all, so he never mentioned it again. Besides, it is not much better to have someone to be with you all the time at such a time than to stay alone in this study.
Why should I refuse, people can sometimes be a little greedy, greedy for the warmth of this family, greedy for the love given to them by the person they love.
Xiao Xi naturally retracted her gaze and filled the cup that had been empty for a long time beside her. Lan Jing sat down, lifted the cup and slowly took a sip of the fragrant gardenia tea. Even if he returned to the palace, Si Kouxi still couldn't give up that cup of gardenia tea, which inevitably reminded the two of them of the bits and pieces in Si Kou's mansion.
Lan Jing looked at Xiao Xi, who was concentrating on making tea, and said, "You and Yan Shu have really made a lot of contributions to the Lan family's royal family, and it is really a blessing for me and Lan Qiong to have you!" ”
Si Kouxi raised his eyebrows, thinking that Yan Shu had said something to Lan Jing. "Yan Shu told me that I, as an elder brother, still treat Lan Qiong as a child. Lan Qiong has long grown up, and I can be a hands-off shopkeeper. Xiao Xi flipped the teapot and said with a smile: "I still owe some heat, but it's almost over." She turned her head to look at Lan Jing and said jokingly, "However, I think Yan Shu's speech must not be so tactful." ”
Lan Jing nodded, it seems that the two are still really friendly from childhood to adulthood, and this tacit understanding is really enviable.
"I told Yan Shu a few days ago that she wanted to keep an eye on the people around the emperor, if the person who disturbed the court and regarded our Kou family as a stumbling block was just a simple courtier, I don't think it mattered, after all, this is what our Kou family should deal with, and everyone understands the truth of making a big move. But I really don't want this person to be by the emperor's side, this wind blows in my ears every morning, noon and evening, where can our Si Kou family fight! ”
Si Kouxi took out a roster and threw it in front of Lan Jing. Lan Jing glanced at the roster and didn't move to flip through it. Having drained the cup of tea, he refilled it and watched the smoke fall silent. This royal family is the one who can never get rid of the people who eat the inside and the inside, and the enemies of this world.
"The Lan family has stood in the world for a hundred years, and how many intertwined roots must be under this big tree to support such a towering sun on the surface. There will never be peace! Lan Jing shook her head helplessly and blew away a floating leaf on the surface of the teacup.
Everyone understands this truth, but the darkness in it is really undesirable to face. "I think you and Yan Shu already have a choice in mind, so this matter is still left to you." Lan Jing looked at Xiao Xi with a smile.
"You're not going to take me with you?" Si Kouxi thought that he also knew Lan Jing's plan, so he slowly opened the booklet on the table and glanced at it carefully. "I wanted to go and see what the woman who can make my second brother tempted look like!
Lan Jing smiled and shook her head: "Lan Ying still wait for Si Kouqing to bring it to you himself." Then the house will be handed over to you? Si Kouxi sighed lightly: "This amount of work is really huge!" ”
"Take the emperor with you, the Son of Heaven is coming to the front, it is bound to encourage the soldiers ahead, and by the way, let people see that this newly enthroned Son of Heaven is not a vegetarian!" Xiao Xi looked at the gardenia petals in the water, and thought that it was already time for the fire, so she extinguished the stove under the teapot. "What do you think I suggested?"
Lan Jing smiled helplessly, her own princess was really too smart, Lan Jing nodded.
