Chapter 508: Quite capable

"Mother, Nie Jingyang has already left Hengwu City for Beidi, the military is completely in our hands, and the next thing is to see Jingyang's ability."

Xuan Guogong's tone was usually a little proud, but in fact, his son was indeed quite capable.

Xuan Guogong took the tea from the maid's hand and handed it to the old lady.

The old lady smiled, took a bite and said: "Jingyang's ability, I don't have to worry about it, but the court has been a little unstable recently. ”

Xuan Guogong was puzzled, and now above the court, there seems to be nothing wrong.

Why is it unstable?

However, Xuan Guogong is naturally not a fool to be able to achieve this position, and he can figure it out after a little thought.

"Mother suspects that the emperor will act next."

What kind of character the emperor is, the old lady naturally knows, so he is willing to find something to do.

"Recently, the five princesses often invite the relatives of the ministers of the court to meet in the palace, do you know this?"

It's no secret in the first place.

The behavior of the five princesses is completely to pull connections for the five princes, or to establish authority, and anyone with a discerning eye can see what he wants to do.

It's just a good thing, how can this matter be related to the money of the five princesses?

The old lady saw that Xuan Guogong was puzzled, and continued to ask: "Do you think the move of the fifth princess is the instruction of Prime Minister Li Cheng?" ”

Prime Minister Li Cheng is a cunning man who has been operating in the DPRK and China for many years.

He was able to achieve today's position, in addition to being related to the queen mother, mostly because of his outstanding ability, and he has always been unwilling to help anyone have a high reputation in the court.

Even the Li family has daughters who are married to the third prince, the fifth prince and the crown prince.

I don't seem to have heard of him blatantly on any side.

From this point of view, the five princesses' actions this time are not necessarily the benefits of Prime Minister Li, it may be that the five princesses were done to Prime Minister Li.

Or rather, he is using the identity of the daughter of the Li family to force Prime Minister Li to stand on the side of the five princes.

"Mother, my son thinks that this matter should have nothing to do with Prime Minister Li."

The boss is good at everything, but he admits death when it is critical, and he can't tell the difference.

It's just that my son was raised by himself, so he has to take care of one or two things.

The old lady thought about her grandson who was far away in Beidi, and when her grandson came back, she didn't have to worry about it so much.

His brain is really far worse than his grandson!

This life is a mess.

"Fifth princess, can a woman think of so much? Besides, according to Li Chengxiang's old guy's temperament, this matter was really done privately by the Fifth Imperial Concubine with her back to him, how could he do nothing? ”

That's right!

Xuanguo Gong suddenly became enlightened, and Prime Minister Li Cheng naturally knew about the five princes' concubines banqueting their relatives in the court, but he seemed to acquiesce in this matter, which means that he had already expressed his attitude and would stand on the side of the five princes.

But then again, what does this have to do with the turmoil in the DPRK?

It is true that the fifth princess is the granddaughter of Prime Minister Li Cheng, but this queen is still Prime Minister Li Cheng's own daughter, and the prince is also Prime Minister Li Cheng's grandson.

Soon Xuan Guogong was confused by himself, and he really couldn't understand what Prime Minister Li Cheng thought.

Now that the Li family has a relationship with several princes, who does Prime Minister Li want to choose?

If you can't figure it out, you just don't want to.

"Mother, no matter what she says, this matter is the Li family's business, and it has nothing to do with our Xuanguo Mansion, even if the court is going to be chaotic, we just need to guard the Dayu Dynasty, as for how they make trouble, let them make trouble."

Although Lao Taijun felt that Xuan Guogong's thinking was simple, he had to admit that what he said was very reasonable.

They Xuanguo Mansion does not have concubines in the palace, even if it is a few princes, no matter how strong they are, it has nothing to do with them.

It is precisely because of this that the Zhao family has advanced the invitation of the queen mother several times.

"The queen also sent someone to invite your daughter-in-law into the palace, but your daughter-in-law refused, and your daughter-in-law also noticed something, so she pushed it, but the queen mother also seemed to be a little anxious, your daughter-in-law and the queen mother are close friends in the boudoir, and now for the Xuanguo Mansion, she is not good at remedy, but maybe this will not be a taste in her heart, you should look at her more after the next court, so as not to think wildly."

Speaking of the Zhao family, Xuan Guogong also became nervous, "Mother, don't worry, Mrs. Er's thinking about this matter is more thorough than her son's, when she refused the queen's first invitation, she said that it is one thing to have a personal relationship with the queen's mother, but it is another thing to involve the dispute between the crown prince, since he is the daughter-in-law of our Nie family, he is a member of the Nie family, and the facts will come first to the Nie family." ”

The old lady nodded with satisfaction, although this daughter-in-law is not so active, but her heart is loyal.

This is probably the benefit of the daughter of the general, who has a big heart, but has a firm heart.

It's not like their daughters of the Wenchen family at all, they love the wind and snow with a belly of flowers, and they are all fake, and they will cry, make trouble, and hang themselves when something happens, which is really on the table.

It is said that marrying a wife is not virtuous for three generations, and he gave the eldest this daughter-in-law, although she is not so smart, but it is not bad!

And the granddaughter-in-law she likes is a good one, she will return in the future in a hundred years, and this Xuanguo Mansion will be taken care of by their husband and wife, and there will be nothing wrong.

The old lady mentioned Xuan Guogong, and let him go back to rest in two sentences.

Xuanguo Gong came back all the way, but he didn't even eat, and as soon as Zhao saw him, he asked people to serve food and boiled water.

has been busy for nearly two hours, and Xuan Guogong's side can be regarded as completely relaxed.

Remembering the words of the old lady before, he couldn't help hugging Zhao's waist, although the two were already old husbands and wives, they were also very tired on weekdays, no worse than young people.

"Madam, today Mother has mentioned the Queen Mother again."

Zhao's heart was stunned.

She could probably guess that her mother-in-law was talking to her husband about the queen's mother, and it was just because of her friendship with the queen's mother.

Over the years, outsiders have been rumored that the Xuanguo Mansion will stand on the side of the prince because of her friendship with the queen when she was in the boudoir.

But no one knew that before the emperor did not succeed to the throne, the Xuanguo Mansion would not face any prince.

Naturally, she won't cause trouble to the Xuanguo Mansion, so there are some things that she can understand without saying anything.

"I have politely refused on the queen's side, I believe that Sister Yanran will not come to me again."

Zhao said and sighed, "Sister Yanran is a smart person, she has never taken the initiative to ask me to enter the palace over the years, for fear of arousing the unwarranted suspicion of others, but she has frequently looked for me twice these days." ”
