In fact, before entering the palace, it was not right, and it can even be said that when he first asked people to hand over the fold, he had already thought about what to do about it.

And everything was already in place, and the only thing to worry about before was whether the queen was willing to do it or not, and whether she was willing to cooperate.

As he had feared before, the queen was indeed a little tired at first, because the successive blows made her not want to fight anymore.

But the father-in-law also knows that there are women in this harem who don't fight, whether it's for themselves or for their children.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it's just a matter of finding a reason to find a reason.

The queen is the master of the harem, if she doesn't fight, I'm afraid she will be more dangerous than those people.

What's more, her second prince is in this situation again, so it is impossible for the queen not to fight.

Even if she really felt tired before, as long as someone persuaded her a little, she would definitely have no choice but to accept.

In the past twenty years, this harem has long sharpened her edges and corners into what she is now, and she has long been accustomed to not letting others be good, but must hold all the initiative into her own hands.

The national abbot said, "Niangniang, in fact, the best way to do this matter is not for us to take action ourselves, and even if you and Your Majesty speak, you can't talk about His Royal Highness." ”

The Empress frowned and shook her head, "Father, you may not know that it is not easy for this palace to see His Majesty even if she wants to see him now. ”

The queen sighed, her tone was sad, but because she said this in front of her father, she felt that it was a shame, "Your Majesty just reprimanded this palace before, and even told this palace to think about it behind closed doors, and this palace is only afraid of it now...... If you want to see Your Majesty, you can't see it. Even the door of this Kunning Palace can't be stepped out, let alone what to say to Your Majesty? ”

Guozhang nodded, how could he not know about this kind of thing, if he didn't know about this matter, then it would be meaningless for him to enter the palace today.

He said, "Don't worry, these old ministers already knew about it before." ”

The queen looked at him, "Well, what does my father mean ......."

"Although Niangniang can't get out, the people around Niangniang can still get out. It is inconvenient for Niangniang to speak in front of His Majesty, but with Lu Cheng by His Majesty's side, he is extremely convenient to speak. ”

The queen raised her eyebrows, "Lu Cheng? She shook her head, "Lu Cheng has been by His Majesty's side for many years, and in the end, he is just a person who is loyal to His Majesty, he will not listen to us, and it is estimated that he will not help us speak." ”

Guozhang said, "Niangniang is wrong, what we originally wanted was not to ask Lu Cheng to help us speak." Lu Cheng doesn't have to speak for us, as long as we want to say something, just let Lu Cheng say it, and this is what Lu Cheng himself doesn't think is helping us, in this case, he won't resist. ”

The queen didn't understand, "Then what are we going to tell Lu Cheng to say?" ”

-

Here, the queen and the prince were planning to land in Lucheng, but what they didn't know was that Lucheng in the middle of the night was not guarding in front of the emperor, but went somewhere else.

The temperature of the stove in the room was very high, and there were two cups of tea on the desk.

The whole room is extraordinarily quiet and elegant.

"You invited me here at this time, isn't it just to invite me to drink your tea?" Lu Cheng smiled and picked up a cup of tea on the table, then put it to his lips and took half a sip, and suddenly raised his eyebrows, "Good tea." ”

This tea is really good.

Even if he is a royal person, his things have always been the best person.

Whether it is the people below who honor him, or beg him to do things to please him, how good and how to give that thing is really good, how expensive it is.

But even so, when Lu Cheng drank this tea, he still felt that this tea was really good.

Sitting in front of him was naturally Cao Tinghealed.

He invited Lu Cheng over at night, but in fact, he still had points in his heart, knowing that Lu Cheng should come over, as far as Lu Cheng's temperament was concerned, since it was the affection of his fellow villagers - but in fact, these were secondary.

Who is Lu Cheng, he is almost the guiding light of the emperor's mind.

This entire Chen State, if you really want to talk about it, Lu Cheng said that his understanding of the emperor is second, then I'm afraid that no one really dares to say that he is the first.

The reason is also very simple, he has been with the emperor for so many years, decades, even if the monarch's authority is not easy to appear, but because of the emperor's trust in Lu Cheng, he will definitely show a little emotion after so many years.

And as long as the emotions are revealed a lot, Lu Cheng can slowly accumulate experience, that is, he knows the emperor's intentions.

And what he knows so far is that the emperor actually likes this Cao Tingyu very much.

It's not just because he is Ji Jia's righteous son, it's obvious that Ji Jia wants to train him to be his successor.

Generally, the emperor looks at this kind of person with a stricter scrutiny attitude.

But what is true is that this Cao Tingyu is not only pleasing to the eye when he looks at his appearance and figure, but also has nothing to say about his ability.

At least the things that the emperor handed over to him were basically not done, not to mention that the last time he came back from Huguo Temple, Cao Tingyue could be regarded as a meritorious rescuer.

comes and goes, that is, the credit is superimposed, and the favor accumulates goodwill, and the emperor naturally treats Cao Tingyue differently from the people in the Dongchang next to him.

This is why Lu Chengken made such a trip.

Because even he has to be careful to deal with the people of the East Factory.

Although everyone is a eunuch, it is inevitable that they will perform their own duties, and if there is any collision in the middle, if the relationship is not good before, it may be serious.

But if the relationship is good, it will basically be a big thing and a small thing.

Cao Tingyue smiled, "This tea tastes good now, and it is also in winter, and there is no good Longjing, and when the time comes next year, I will ask someone to send some rain to my companion, which can be better." ”

Lu Cheng shook his head, "Why bother you so much, I usually wait, how much time can I sit down and drink tea, and I still don't have to practice these good things." ”

Cao Tingyue raised his eyebrows, "What the big companion said, good tea is to meet someone who understands tea, if the big companion doesn't understand, I gave it to you, and it's for nothing, but if you understand, even if it's this tea, it's the best explanation." ”

Lu Cheng laughed, "You, you don't usually say such a scene, let me think about it, isn't there something that requires me, that's why you have been gagging with me here for so long." ”

Lu Cheng put down the tea bowl in his hand, and then rolled up his sleeves again, "Let's go to the same country, if there is anything I can help you, you can just open your mouth, why go around in such a big circle in front of me." ”

Cao Tingyue said, "This is the matter, I'm afraid it's a little difficult." ”

Lu Cheng frowned, "You haven't told you what the hell is going on. ”

Cao Tingyue sighed, "The matter of the eldest prince ......" Cao Tingyue saw that Lu Cheng's face did not change, so he continued, "Your Majesty didn't want to hide the matter of the eldest prince, and now it is already rumored, I am afraid that tomorrow will be dawn, and the entire capital will know about the eldest prince being reprimanded by His Majesty." ”

"What does that have to do with you?" Lu Cheng didn't understand, "Are you going to intercede with the eldest prince?" ”

Cao Tingyue shook his head, "How is this possible." He added, "It's just a shame to say that the eldest prince and I have some contradictions." ”

"You and the eldest prince?" Lu Cheng pondered, he had never heard of this.

"It's not a big contradiction, but in fact, it's not just me, it's the people of the entire Dongchang, and even the eunuchs in the entire palace, and this big prince seems to have some contradictions."

"What?" Lu Cheng was even more surprised, "This is ......"

"The eldest companion is by His Majesty's side on weekdays, and the eldest prince naturally does not dare to be disrespectful to the eldest companion, and he does not even dare to say anything to the eldest companion, so it should be normal for the eldest companion not to find out."

Lu Cheng frowned, "What did you find?" ”

"This great prince seems to have a special dislike for eunuchs, even in the deep palace, when he meets a eunuch, he will be reprimanded lightly, and beaten and scolded at worst. I don't know where the eunuch offended him, but it made him particularly disgusted. ”

Lu Cheng said, "The same is true for you?" ”

"The same is true for me, of course." Cao Tingyue smiled bitterly, "What's so special about me?" ”

"He dares to do this to you, does he dare to do this to Ji Jia? Where did he have such courage? ”

Even if he is the prince, survival in this palace depends on the emperor's intentions.

And the emperor is so partial to Dongchang, even if he is the prince, he doesn't dare to do anything to Ji Jia.

"My father-in-law doesn't walk around the palace often, and the two hardly see each other."

Lu Cheng now knows what this so-called contradiction is.

It's just the eunuch's pride.

And the eunuchs were originally people without roots, and what they left behind was either the so-called gold, silver, jewelry, or the pitiful, only dignity left.

On weekdays, they are called "slaves" in front of others, but if they are really trampled on, holding grudges is also first-class.

No matter how great Cao Ting looks, now he looks like he is just an ordinary eunuch.

However, Lu Cheng himself is also a eunuch, so he can naturally understand Cao Tingyu's thoughts, so he sighed, "Then you want me to say something bad about the eldest prince in front of His Majesty, and add fuel to the fire?" ”

Cao Tingyue hurriedly shook his head, "How does this make the big companion speak bluntly...... This majesty is only afraid that he will be suspicious. ”

Lu Cheng looked at him, "Then you want to ......"

Cao Tingyue smiled, "If someone asks the eldest companion to pass on something instead, and wants to intercede with the eldest prince secretly, please pay more attention to the eldest companion." ”

Lu Cheng thought for a while before nodding, "Okay, I should do what you entrusted." ”
