As soon as he finished speaking, several ministers looked at him with strange eyes. If it weren't for the emperor's face, everyone would have to smack him.

Everyone is a thousand-year-old fox, what are you doing here?

In the past, when the crown prince and the third prince were still there, the cabinet often fought for each other when discussing things. It's rare to have such a happy look now.

Xiao Qi was in a good mood when he saw this.

He said to Gong Xie fairly: "Then you go again, ask Zhiwei how he is in a vacant position, and do you want to go to the Ministry of Industry or the Ministry of Households." ”

"Yes." Gonggong Xie hurriedly left again.

After a while, he came back and said, "Princess Qi said that she is willing to serve the emperor and the court. It's just that the prince is like this, she is not very relieved. So can the emperor let her think about this matter and see the situation? ”

Hearing this, Xiao Qi really felt that Zhao Ruxi was very sensible, focusing on Xiao Lingyan in everything, and he was not blindly competitive. He couldn't have been more satisfied with this daughter-in-law.

"Yes. You tell her that there is no hurry, when she is willing to go to work, just say it. He said.

This matter reached the ears of Cen Guifei shortly after the cabinet ministers discussed the matter.

At that time, Cen Peixuan was entering the palace to greet her, and these words were also heard.

If Zhao Ruxi agrees to be an official or refuses to be an official, Cen Peixuan will have something to criticize in front of Cen Guifei and smear her.

But she opened her mouth, and she couldn't find a place to black Zhao Ruxi.

Cen Guifei's thoughts are the same as Xiao Qi's, and she is also very satisfied that Zhao Ruxi takes Xiao Lingyan as the priority, and she has to be strong if she doesn't pinch the tip, so she has to be an official, as if she is capable.

If it was in the past, she would still be afraid of the Cen family and Cen Peixuan. Now that the Cen family's power has been weakened, Cen Peixuan has nothing to rely on, but wants to look up to her and Xiao Lingpu to live, and Cen Guifei will act as she pleases.

She turned her head and instructed Aunt Yu: "Yesterday, Jiangnan sent the palace forging that had just been put into storage, you go and pick a few things that Zhiwei likes and send someone to send it to her." ”

"Yes." Aunt Yu hurriedly went out to run errands.

The cloth was only paid yesterday by Jiangnan, and it is still being counted, and it is not yet time to distribute it.

Although these silks are indispensable to several princesses, they have not yet counted the clothes for Zhao Ruxi, which shows how much Concubine Cen values her. Cen Peixuan, who was sitting in front of her, was not even mentioned.

How could Cen Peixuan ever be so slighted? But remembering what Xiao Lingpu said to her seriously before she entered the palace, she couldn't bear to say anything unpleasant, but her face still brought something out.

When Cen Guifei saw it, she didn't see it, and she felt a little emotional.

The three of them, mother and son, relied on the Cen family to gain a foothold in the palace, so they had no choice when they set up a marriage for Xiao Ling, so Cen Peixuan became the future princess when she was just born, which developed her pampered temperament.

Now her growth is at the cost of the loss of power of the entire Cen family.

"You have a big belly now, so you should come out less in the future. If you want to enter the palace to ask for peace, let the second child come by himself. He's not a foreign man who can't enter the palace, and he's not injured his foot and can't walk, so why do you have to call you a big-bellied man? I'll talk about him when I get back. Cen Guifei said.

Cen Peixuan stood up with her stomach and replied aggrievedly: "Yes." ”

She was embarrassed to say that it wasn't Xiao Lingpu who asked her to come over to ask for peace, it was she who wanted to come to ask for peace.

At home, Xiao Lingpu didn't pay much attention to her. used to be busy with political affairs, but now he has nothing to do with political affairs, he either plays chess with Keqing or reads books by himself. She went over to talk to him, and he sent her away under the pretext of giving her more rest.

In the past, whether it was the Cen family or the little sisters, there were always people who flattered her and came to talk to her. Now King An has no hope of inheriting the unification, and he has the intention of closing the door to thank guests and recuperate from his injuries with peace of mind, and most of the Cen family's officials have been transferred, and King An's Mansion is very quiet now, and no one has been a guest for a long time.

Cen Peixuan was bored at home, so she wanted to come to the palace to talk to Concubine Cen.

Now that her mother-in-law spoke, she didn't dare to stay longer, so she bowed and went out with her subordinates.

But before he had walked a few steps, he saw a group of people coming angrily.

"Princess, let's stay aside, so as not to hurt the child." Mama Chen, brought by Cen Peixuan, persuaded.

If it had been before, Cen Peixuan would not have given way.

She's a princess. The emperor has not favored young concubines for many years, so there are not many young concubines in the palace who are above her, and they have to salute her when they see her.

But this time is different from the past, and she is pregnant, her mother must remind her before leaving the capital, so that she can give birth to a unicorn and stabilize her position. Otherwise, once King An accepts a side concubine or concubine, her position will be in jeopardy. She didn't dare risk her body.

She hurriedly followed the maid and avoided to the side.

When those people approached, they didn't stop when they saw Cen Peixuan, nor did they salute her, and quickly walked over.

Cen Peixuan's maid was furious.

Mama Chen was afraid that she would instigate Cen Peixuan's trouble, so she hurriedly said: "These concubines from poor families have just entered the palace, they don't understand any rules, and they don't know you, so they naturally don't know that they should salute you, so don't worry about them, princess." ”

After purging the entire imperial court, Xiao Qi accepted the daughters of several officials from poor families into the palace in order to balance the forces of all parties. Of course, I also want to have a few more sons.

Cen Peixuan frowned and said, "The one who walked in the middle just now is the concubine of the Sixth Prince, right?" What did she bring these people for? "A look of bad intentions.

Mama Chen said, "Why don't we go in and have a look?" ”

Cen Peixuan nodded, turned around and entered the palace gate.

But she didn't come forward, she just stood on the periphery and listened.

She heard these beauties asking Cen Guifei why Cen Guifei picked the clothes for Princess Qi before they got the clothes. One is the daughter of a military general, who probably feels relied on, and the tone of her speech is still very impulsive, and it is completely questioning.

"Why? She made two kinds of farm tools for the Great Jin. If you have any opinions, you can directly raise them with the emperor. Cen Guifei said.

Turning her head, she instructed the little eunuch: "You go and tell the emperor about this matter." ”

"Guifei Niangniang, they didn't mean that." Concubine Xian's gentle voice sounded, "They are new to the palace, and they don't understand many rules, I also explained to them just now." It's just that they don't know the rules, so they thought about coming over and asking, and they didn't mean to question you. The emperor has all kinds of opportunities, and the state affairs are heavy, so don't disturb the emperor with some small things. ”

As she spoke, she glanced at a few Jieyu and beauties.

Only then did those people salute and apologize to Concubine Cen.

Cen Guifei sneered at these Jieyu and beauties: "Concubine Xian Niangniang is really a good means, instigating you to come to me to make trouble." If I tell the emperor about this, the emperor has cured you of your sins or treated you coldly, and you will not be favored and will not be able to give birth to a son, and no one will be able to threaten the status of the six princes. ”
