Chapter 545: The Emperor's Intent
Xie Jingliang finally dried Ji Wanyi's hair at an extremely slow speed, and after drying it, he found that his own hair had also dried almost in this long process.
The two of them went out for a long time, and when they were full of food and drink, they lay down to rest.
When Ji Wanyi woke up in the afternoon, Xie Jingliang had already gone to work. I took a morning off, I was done with business, and I accompanied my daughter-in-law to go shopping, so there was no reason to continue to stay at home.
Not to mention...... It's too painful to see and not eat.
Ji Wanyi didn't know anything about it.
She had nothing to do at home, took out the ledger and crackled the accounts, and the afternoon passed quickly.
The next morning, when Xiwen and Shimo came to wait for her to get up, they brought the latest news about Zhao Zhen'er.
How did Princess Allure tell the emperor after returning to the palace, no one knows, anyway, in the end, the emperor's tolerance for Zhao Zhen'er has been exhausted, and the former future Seventh Princess, after losing the position of the main room, once again lost the position of the side concubine. Not only that, Zhao Zhen'er became a complete criminal slave, was punished by the emperor to the court, and when the Zhao family was still there, she no longer had the status of an official lady.
As soon as the news was released, Zhao Xiangye immediately handed over a fold to the palace, saying that he had expelled Zhao Zhen'er from the family tree, and from then on, there was no more Zhao Zhen'er in the Zhao family.
And the emperor also ordered Zhao Rong'er, another concubine of the Zhao family, to be the future side concubine of the Seventh Prince.
"Miss, what do you say Zhao Zhen'er is tossing and turning? I don't pay attention to good family affairs, and I think about how to hurt people all day long, and I don't know how to be vigilant when I toss the status of a wife, and I even toss the identity of the side concubine again. It can be seen that those who frame others, and in the end, they don't harm others, and all of them are eaten up on themselves. Shimo said gloatingly.
Zhao Zhen'er did too much, and even Xiwen, who has always been steady, couldn't help but say a few words.
"I heard that Miss Zhao Rong'er used to suffer under Zhao Zhen'er's hands, at that time, Zhao Zhen'er relied on herself to be the concubine of the Zhao family, and never took the concubines and concubines of the Zhao family to heart, but now it's good, she Zhao Zhen'er was just a fake phoenix, and she was no different from other concubines. But that Miss Zhao Rong'er is bittersweet. A concubine can be a side concubine of the prince, which can be regarded as a good destination. ”
"Yes, if you have another son in the future, even if you are not a son-in-law, as long as you have a good relationship with the wife of the Seventh Prince, at least you can have a good way out in the future." Pick up the ink road.
Xiwen smiled: "No, no, no, that Miss Zhao Rong'er can live well even if she doesn't have a good relationship with the future Seventh Prince and Concubine, provided that Zhao Xiangye is in power." ”
Zhao Zhen'er has completely become a waste, the number of remaining concubines in the Zhao family is limited, if Zhao Xiangye wants to use his daughter to seek some benefits for himself, then the remaining few have to plan carefully.
"You're all thinking too simply." Ji Wanyi suddenly denied the views of the two of them.
"What do you mean, Miss?" Xiwen was stunned.
Picking up ink is also puzzled.
"You probably don't know yet, the Zhao family has already begun to go downhill!" Ji Wanyi hit the nail on the head.
"Going downhill? No way? "Xiwen and Shimo are a little unbelievable.
Shimo even said: "Yes, Miss, I see that the emperor obviously attaches great importance to Zhao Xiangye, otherwise, he would not have known that Zhao Zhen'er killed her last time, and he would have kept her and left her to the Seventh Prince as a side concubine." ”
Ji Wanyi shook her head: "You guys, you only see the surface. ”
Xiwen and Shimo were even more confused.
Ji Wanyi explained: "The ambition of the Seven Princes is not small, for the princes, it is actually very normal to have that kind of thought, but he has empty ambitions, but he doesn't know how to hide them, and he perfectly conceals his ambitions, after being discovered by the emperor, how can he allow this kind of thinking to continue to exist?" ”
"What does Miss mean is that the Seventh Prince has been rejected by the emperor, so Zhao Xiangye's family, who are the father-in-law of the Seventh Prince, will also be affected by the Seventh Prince?" Xiwen asked thoughtfully.
Ji Wanyi shook her head: "You are only a small part right. ”
Xiwen and Shimo became more and more puzzled.
"The emperor is indeed dissatisfied with the Seventh Prince, so he is also dissatisfied with Zhao Xiangye, but the last time he protected Zhao Zhen'er, it was not because he took a fancy to Zhao Xiangye, but because now the Ji family and the Xie family, the two big families with military power, have become in-laws, which is not a good thing for the emperor, so the emperor needs to have a person like Zhao Xiangye to maintain the three-legged situation, the Zhao family has an enmity with me because of Zhao Zhener's relationship, which is equivalent to having an enmity with the Ji family and the Xie family, which is what the emperor wants, so, The emperor will definitely protect Zhao Zhen'er. ”
Xiwen and Shimo nodded thoughtfully, the two of them seemed to have understood a lot, but they didn't seem to grasp the point, Xiwen asked again: "Then now that the emperor has punished Zhao Zhen'er to be a slave in the court, does it mean that the emperor no longer needs Zhao Xiangye to contain the Xie family and the Ji family, and wants to attack the two of us?" ”
Xiwen looked very nervous.
Shimo turned her around and said, "I don't think so, didn't you see that the emperor gave Miss Zhao Rong'er, who had been miserable, to the Seventh Prince as a side concubine?" ”
Ji Wanyi said: "You can all think of this, will Zhao Xiangye, who has been up and down in the court for most of his life, think of this?" Will the emperor who has been dealing with all kinds of courtiers think of this? ”
Xiwen and Shimo were both a little confused, and finally Shimo said: "Oh, Miss, don't keep saying that half is left in half, what else is the inside story, you can tell us all at once." ”
Ji Wanyi smiled and shook her head, which was the only way to fulfill her wish: "Zhao Xiangye must also be able to think of this, so his remaining daughters naturally want to be used as political bargaining chips to marry into the family of someone who can help him." But the emperor did not fulfill Zhao Xiangye's wish, he also gave the girl Zhao Rong'er to the Seven Princes, so that unless the Seven Princes can finally ascend to that position, otherwise, Zhao Rong'er will become a waste chess! ”
At this moment, Xiwen and Shimo are completely understood.
"The oldest of the remaining daughters of the Zhao family is only twelve years old, even if Zhao Xiangye wants to marry someone, it is too early. Moreover, now that the emperor has given Zhao Rong'er to the Seventh Prince, Zhao Xiangye should also understand the emperor's intentions. Even if Zhao Xiangye wants to settle the marriage for his daughter first, and then get married when his daughter grows up, he has to think about it. ”
