Chapter 355: Let go of power
After this palace man went out and came back, the news he got was different.
"Princess, the slave went out this time, but no one followed him anymore, and I don't know why."
"But they noticed that you were being followed, so they deliberately hid your whereabouts?"
The maid shook her head, not knowing if that was the case.
"It's just that the slave wanted to experiment to see if it was because of the way to be followed, so he followed the previous road and went to the Ministry of Rites again, under the pretext that the princess inadvertently left a beloved hairpin in the wealth box, and wanted to change it slightly, but I didn't expect it...... But the man in charge said that it had been put into storage, and that it could not be taken out again. ”
Shi Wang felt strange: "Although it is an excuse, but it takes three or five days for this appropriation to be put into the treasury, why can't it be changed so quickly?" ”
The maid still didn't know.
It seems that I can't get any useful information from her, but this matter is really a bit strange, and it is still difficult to put it down.
"Let's go and take a trip for myself." Shi Wang was about to get up and change his clothes, but was stopped by the maid.
"Princess, you are sick today, and if you go out unharmed like this, you will be suspected."
Only then did Shi Wang remember that he pretended to be sick to avoid the festival today.
In this case, I can only put this matter aside for the time being and make plans in a few days.
The autumn festival was still successfully concluded without the accompaniment of Shi Wang, which also allowed the ministers to see the strength of King Li, who could still handle the major affairs of the country without the policy of Princess Yuanping.
After this time, King Li's prestige in the court increased greatly, and Princess Yuanping, because she had lived in the harem for a long time and did not take care of government affairs, the voice and number of times the court talked about her gradually became less and less.
Seeing that King Li was finally able to smoothly transition power, Shi Wang was also happy in his heart.
Seeing such a situation is naturally what she dreamed of.
She began to plan the enthronement ceremony of King Li, which was still a few months away.
This is the most important day in her heart, and it is natural to take care of this code properly.
"Yi'er, do you have any plans for your enthronement ceremony? That day is the day you officially establish the king, it is better to announce the queen's throne, Empress Qi and Miss Li are also acquaintances in the palace, and they must be able to cope with such a scene. ”
Shi Wang said with joy, but King Li was a little hesitant.
"My aunt seems to be very attentive to the enthronement ceremony of this king."
"That's nature. This is the biggest thing in the attack, so naturally we can't be sloppy. ”
"In fact, my aunt has not been in charge of government affairs for a long time now, and she doesn't know much about many things, and besides, my aunt is getting older now, so she is not suitable for such work. It is better to leave this matter to the king himself. It's also a provincial aunt to worry about. When the time comes, as long as my aunt goes to hand it over, isn't it also enjoyable? ”
Shi Wang was slightly stunned, she wanted to make her last effort for this matter, but she didn't want to be rejected politely, and the feeling of loss in her heart was naturally indescribable.
But King Li's original intention was to relieve himself of all the burdens, how could he dismiss his kindness.
Besides, with King Li's current ability, it is indeed enough to hold this ceremony.
Speaking of which, it just means that I don't need to do it anymore.
It's not that I can't let go of the power in my hands, it's just that this opportunity to let go has been deprived, so naturally I have some concerns.
"Auntie, don't you want to?" King Li looked at her face and asked her tentatively.
Shi Wang immediately came back to his senses and smiled with him: "Aunt saves time and effort, where will she be unhappy." Since it is His Majesty's enthronement ceremony, it is not impossible for His Majesty to handle it personally. Then follow Your Majesty's words. ”
King Li was relieved at this time: "Auntie, this king still has to go to the side hall to discuss with the minister, so he will not accompany him." Auntie, please. ”
With that, King Li left.
Looking at his fiery back, Shi Wang seemed to see him gradually moving away, so hurried, so eager, as if something was chasing behind.
On the way back to the palace, Shi Wang was a little absent-minded.
She had long expected that there would be a time when this palace would not need her, and she had been preparing for this matter.
But when this day came unexpectedly, I was a little stunned.
"Princess, since you have come out today, why don't you go to the Ministry of Rites and ask about the property that was sealed by the treasury before." The attendant reminded beside her.
Shi Wang was in thought, nodded without thinking too much, and walked to the Ministry of Rites.
But halfway through, it stopped.
"You don't have to go, since the property has been sealed, what's the use of asking again, it's just adding trouble to the Ministry of Rites." Shi Wang said lightly.
She gave up like this, but the palace maid didn't want to do so.
"Princess, this matter is unreasonable, even if the library has been sealed today, it should be given an explanation for what was done in the past. If they are trying to make things difficult, they should not be allowed to do so. ”
"It's just a trivial matter."
"But you are a princess, and you don't deserve to be treated so lightly." The maid's tone was not angry, and she looked like she felt worthless for Shi Wang.
Shi Wang stared at her before she took a step back and bowed her head to show her sin.
Shi Wang sighed lightly, helped her up, and said to her carefully: "The palace is the body of a princess, but now, the court is in charge of the king, and the affairs of the harem are taken over by Miss Li. This palace is just a princess, and there must be no exceptions. ”
The maid was still a little upset when she heard this, and she was pressed down by herself, but she just nodded and agreed.
Only then did the group begin to resume their movement back to the palace.
Remember, another condition for each to do his job is that it cannot be overcome. Whether it is the government or the harem, everyone has their own responsibilities, and other than that, it is outside the office, and it is not allowed to take more or snatch it. You know? ”
The maid knew that Princess Yuanping was asking her not to ask others to do anything because of the position of the princess, but in her heart, she always felt that Princess Yuanping should not be treated like this.
But since it was the princess who spoke herself, she had no reason to disagree.
The group went back to the palace, and halfway through, the maid seemed to see something, suddenly stopped, paused, and then took a normal step.
"What's wrong?" Shi Wang asked her.
The maid lowered her head and whispered to Shi Wang: "Princess, the patrol soldiers on the upper left are the ones who the slaves of the day think they are interested in following. Although they have only seen each other from afar, the slave will never admit his mistake. ”
Shi Wang heard this, although he was still walking under his feet, but he looked to the side with the rest of his eyes.
"Keep walking, wait for less and then follow."
The maid replied gently, and the group walked at a constant pace as before, as if nothing had happened.
After walking out a little, Shi Wang sent the rest of the palace people back to the palace first, while she followed the leading palace maid in the direction where the group was going.
