Chapter 90: Marriage (Three Watches)

Xie Shufei's reaction was so fierce that it was hard to believe that she really didn't know anything.

Xie Qing said thoughtfully: "What is the unspeakable hidden of Niangniang? ”

Regardless of whether Concubine Xie Shu is willing to say it or not, if Xie Qing doesn't ask anything, it will make Concubine Xie suspect that she is deliberately talking.

Concubine Xie Shu did not answer.

"Niangniang, is there any secret to this matter?" Xie Qing asked tentatively.

"This palace has said it, let you not check, you don't have to ask more!" Concubine Xie scolded sharply.

Xie Qing frowned slightly: "If you can make Concubine De fall out of favor because of this, won't you let Qing'er check it?" ”

Concubine Ye Defei is Concubine Xie Shufei's mortal enemy, if Concubine Xie still chooses not to say anything in the face of such a big temptation to bring down Concubine Ye De, then this Rong Sang is too important.

Concubine Xie Shu's lips were tightly pursed, she was silent for a long time, and she struggled in her heart for a long time before she said: "There are other ways to make Concubine De fall out of favor, but you must not investigate this matter again." ”

Concubine Xie Shu's expression was very serious, her hands were clenched tightly, she was nervous?

"It's Qing'er who is too talkative, please don't blame the mother." Xie Qing smiled and said, "Since Niangniang doesn't want to use this method, then I can only think of other methods." ”

Concubine Xie raised her eyes to look at Xie Qing and asked, "If there is another way, can you really bring down Concubine De?" What's in mind for you? ”

For so many years, Concubine Xie Shufei also tried her best to make Concubine Ye Defei fall out of favor, but in the end she failed. So she even wanted to make Concubine De fall out of favor, which was not an easy thing at first sight.

Xie Qing lowered her eyes and replied: "Concubine De relies on Your Majesty for everything, but what if one day Your Majesty can't protect her?" ”

Concubine Xie Shu was shocked: "What are you going to do!" "Your Majesty can't protect her? Could it be that Xie Qing meant to kill the king?

"Xie Qing, you can't mess around, don't think that you can stir up the situation if you are a little clever." Concubine Xie Shufei lowered her voice and said.

Killing the monarch, this is even more difficult than letting Concubine De fall out of favor.

"Niangniang, you are too worried, Qing'er means to support King Yi to ascend the throne and step on King Zhao, when the time comes, after a hundred years of Your Majesty, the person who will inherit the throne will be King Yi, and at that time, whether it is Concubine De or King Zhao, it is not Niangniang, you have the final say." Xie Qing smiled lightly.

She didn't plan to do the murder of the king, if she really did it, then who would rehabilitate the Li family.

Concubine Xie Shu breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that she was thinking about it.

"This palace wants Concubine De to fall out of favor, firstly, to vent a bad breath for herself, and secondly, to make Yi'er ascend to the throne. As long as Yi'er can sit in that position, what does it matter if the palace suffers some grievances temporarily. "Concubine Xie Shu's purpose has never been a small concubine, but the throne.

"But right now, Your Majesty is extremely fond of Concubine De's mother and son, although Your Majesty is annoyed with Concubine De now, but King Zhao's favor has not diminished at all." Concubine Xie Shu's tone was quite helpless, "Yi'er in this palace is an all-round talent in civil and military affairs, but in front of His Majesty, he will never be as favored as King Zhao." But looking at his title, with the national surname as the name, this favor is the first one! ”

But just the title of King Zhao is already eye-catching.

A trace of coldness flashed in Xie Qing's eyes, and Zhao Tianlin's glory contained the blood and tears of their Li family.

Zhao Tianlin took advantage of the credit of winning the Li family to successfully enter the court, and he held an important position, and he even dared to move Li Mu, the prime minister who leaned towards the government and the opposition, which greatly increased his prestige.

"What if King Zhao is favored again, he is still far from being an emperor." Xie Qing snorted coldly, "What else does he want besides His Majesty's favor?" He has just entered the court, and his foundation is still shallow, Niangniang, we still have a chance. ”

Concubine Xie Shu nodded and said, "You mean to let Yi'er win over the courtiers?" ”

"Yes, with the support of the courtiers, it may not be impossible for King Yi to ascend to the throne." Xie Qing said thoughtfully.

"It's not that Yi'er hasn't done this, it's just that anyone with a discerning eye can see that His Majesty favors King Zhao, and there are not many people who can win him over after all." Concubine Xie sighed lightly. The emperor's favor is too terrible and can affect the entire court.

Xie Qing sneered: "Don't worry, Niangniang, most of the ministers in the court are in a wait-and-see attitude, and the person that King Yi wants to win over should be an influential person in the court." ”

Only those who speak with weight can only be effective when they are co-opted.

Concubine Xie Shufei filtered all the courtiers in her brain: "There are a few important ministers in the court, but all of them are like human spirits, and they are not easy to woo." ”

"Niangniang, do you remember how Your Majesty made the Zhennan Wangfu become the power of King Zhao?" Xie Qing hooked his lips and smiled.

"Marriage!" Concubine Xie replied.

Xie Qing nodded and said, "Yes, getting married is the best way to marry, although even if it is a marriage since ancient times, it is not a complete way to win over, but this is also the safest way in the end." ”

"Do you want Yi'er to marry the daughter of a minister in the court?" Concubine Xie frowned slightly.

She has kept Xie Ru by her side for so many years, just to be a concubine for King Yi, this is something that the Xie family knows to be, if she regrets it at this time, wouldn't it offend her brother and sister-in-law?

"The position of the main concubine can't be moved, so I can only let Yi'er marry the side concubine." Concubine Xie Shu said with a straight face, she must tell Xie Qing with certainty that Xie Ru's position will definitely not change.

Concubine Xie Shu knew in her heart that even if she was born in the Xie family, Marquis Zhongyong was her brother-in-law, but Xie Ru was the daughter of Marquis Zhongyong's mansion. My daughter and my sister, in that weight, it's really hard to say.

You can't even want the power of your own family in order to win over the courtiers.

Xie Qing smiled lightly and said, "Who said that you can only let King Yi marry a concubine?" The eldest sister Xie Ru will definitely be the concubine of King Yi in the future, and she is also a cousin, so the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion is firmly on the side of Niangniang, Niangniang, haven't you thought about letting the children of the Xie family marry? ”

The horizontal Xie family must be the power of King Yi, so it is the same to let the children of the Xie family marry.

Concubine Xie Shu smiled: "This is a good idea, but who do you think you want to marry?" And who will go? ”

"Niangniang, Qing'er remembers that the queen mother has a princess Lin'an. Princess Lin'an is twenty-eight years old, and it's time to find a colt. Xie Qing said with a smile.

Concubine Xie Shu thought for a while and said: "If the male son of the Xie family can marry Princess Lin'an, the queen will definitely stand on the side of the palace, and the queen's maiden family, Chen Guogong's mansion, will also become Yi'er's power, this method is indeed helpful for the former dynasty and the harem." However, Chen Guogong's mansion stuck to the northwest, and after many years of fighting on the battlefield, the men of the Chen family were almost dead, and there was only one Chen Guogong left, and Chen Guogong was probably not able to support it for long in his old age. In the long run, I am afraid that it will not help much. On the contrary, it will make His Majesty take precautions. ”

In the harem, the concubine and the queen of the prince are connected into one line, and the harem will basically become the world of the concubine, which will definitely displease Emperor Yongqing.

The corners of Xie Qing's lips hooked slightly, and said with a smile: "What Niangniang said is right, Chen Guogong is old, I'm afraid there are few lifespans, so once Chen Guogong goes in the future, who will inherit it in the northwest?" ”

This question stopped Concubine Xie Shu, "The northwest is an important frontier defense, and the Chen family's influence in the northwest is extremely deep, maybe Your Majesty will directly mention the subordinates in the northwest, or directly appoint people to accept the northwest." The key to this depends on His Majesty's intentions, and this palace can't guess it. ”

Xie Qing shook his head and replied, "The northwest was originally a wild land, if it weren't for the Chen family's own clan in the northwest, it would be difficult for anyone to conquer the northwest. ”

"But there are no more men in the Chen family, is it difficult to let a woman inherit the title?" Concubine Xie asked rhetorically.

Let the woman inherit the family business, there is only one possibility that this woman is very capable, comparable to a man, but it seems that the Chen family does not have such a person.

"If you don't have a man, you can recruit a son-in-law." Xie Qing said with a smile, "But such a large place in the northwest is also an important border defense area, and your majesty has coveted it for a long time, don't you think that if the future heir of the northwest is the royal blood, it will reassure your majesty?" ”

Concubine Xie frowned: "What do you mean?" ”

A person with royal blood is a prince or a royal relative, but what does this have to do with Concubine Xie Shu?

Xie Qing said with a smile: "Niangniang, Qing'er still doesn't go around the bend with you, Princess Lin'an's concubine inherits the position of Chen Guogong and rules the northwest, and they will have royal blood in their heirs in the future, and the concubine is not allowed to take concubines, so the one who inherits the Duke of Chen's mansion in the future must be the son of Princess Lin'an." What do you think of this idea? ”

Concubine Xie Shu's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but clap her hands and praise: "This is definitely the best way, I can't help but let the emperor rest assured that the northwest, even the queen and Chen Guogong are extremely willing to come." If the nephew of the palace is allowed to marry Princess Lin'an, then the northwest will become Yi'er's power! ”

Concubine Xie Shu was a little excited when she thought about it, this was a good idea to decide.

"Niangniang, the first thing you have to do is to send someone to give the queen an idea, this matter must be raised by the queen and Chen Guogong, Your Majesty has always respected the queen, he will definitely agree. At the same time, you also have to choose the right person, and this person can't be too bad, the queen only has a daughter of Princess Lin'an, she must be for the good of Princess Lin'an. ”

Concubine Xie Shu nodded with a smile and said, "Of course this palace will choose well, since it is an alliance, then this palace must also show its sincerity." Qing'er, which of the men of the Xie family do you think is suitable to be Princess Lin'an's concubine? ”

"Niangniang, you don't need to ask Qing'er what you say, don't you already have an idea in your heart." Xie Qing smiled.

The person who can be worthy of Princess Lin'an must be a concubine, a concubine is impossible, and there is only one concubine, the Xie family.

Concubine Xie Shujiao laughed coquettishly: "Qing'er, you have an idea, this palace is now relying on you more and more." ”

Xie Qing smiled silently, it was not so much dependence, but a temptation, she and Dafang were not in harmony, Concubine Xie just wanted to test her meaning. However, she has always adhered to the principle that if people don't offend me, I won't offend people, and as long as the people in the Xie family's big house don't come to provoke her, she won't touch them.
