Chapter 30: Playing the Big Cards
Shangguan Junye's expression was complicated, and he immediately returned to indifference, did not speak, but just nodded.
The Queen Mother had a calm face and said unhappily: "What do the Nine Kings want to do!" knew that Feng Qingge was guilty, but he still exonerated her in public. The country has its own laws, and the family has its own rules! Your Majesty, you must not tolerate these two people. ”
Shangguan Junye was silent for a moment and said, "Queen Mother, there are still many doubts in Qingge's case, and it is indeed inappropriate to convict him hastily without trial and verification. ”
The Queen Mother squinted her eyes slightly, and asked coldly, "Isn't the emperor still thinking about that woman?" ”
"I don't think Qingge is that kind of woman."
"Really?" The Queen Mother sneered as if she had heard a joke: "But don't forget, the emperor, if the person she hooks up with is the Nine Kings......"
Shangguan Junye pursed his lips tightly, his expression was a little cloudy, his eyes were deep, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking.
"From childhood to adulthood, the Nine Kings have to fight with you for everything. Your Majesty, you care about your brotherhood, but you don't necessarily get your affection. ”
"It's not as bad as you think. Although the ninth brother is a little rebellious and uninhibited, he also has a ...... of importance."
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's hard for you to convince yourself of these words. Don't feel bad when you talk about the mourning family, you are kind, but in the eyes of others, it is called weakness. Now he can rob your woman, and he can rob you of the throne later......"
"Queen Mother!" Shangguan Junye frowned, interrupted her with some impatience, and said, "I know that I am not as far-sighted as my ninth brother in politics. He is a man of martial arts, and if he is pro-government, he must be more capable than me. When my father was alive, he held him in high esteem. If he really had that thought, it would not be my turn to sit on this throne now. ”
"Your Majesty, don't be presumptuous."
"Queen Mother, I didn't belittle myself, I just stated the facts." Shangguan Junye said calmly: "And my body, I don't know how long it can last." If I were to choose, I would rather let him sit in this country, and he would always be a member of the Shangguan family. I believe that with his ability, this country will be stronger. ”
Shangguan Junye paused and said, "It's better than falling into the hands of someone with a foreign surname." ”
The Queen Mother squinted slightly and stared at him thoughtfully: "What does the emperor mean by this?" ”
"I don't have any other intentions, but to talk about things. Mother, I have my own decision on this matter, so don't worry about it. ”
The Queen Mother was very dissatisfied with his attitude of dragging things in the mud and water. This emperor is too weak, and he is not the material to sit on the country at all. In vain, she spent so much effort to arch him to the throne, but she didn't expect that he couldn't solve it with just one woman. When I thought that the people of the Feng family were still alive in the world, I felt all kinds of discomfort in my heart.
But the emperor has grown up in the end, and he is no longer the obedient little prince of his childhood. If it is too reluctant, it will inevitably cause resistance in his heart. The Queen Mother had no choice but to say: "When this kind of thing happens, in the final analysis, it is also the poor management of the harem." There are too many rights and wrongs in this harem, and the emperor can't concentrate on governing the country. ”
Shangguan Junye pondered for a while, and probably guessed what she meant in his heart. The surface is silent.
"The mourning family also wants to help, but there are some things between the concubines that are always inconvenient to interfere, so as not to make people feel that the handling is biased. And the mourning family is also old, so they are really powerless. ”
"Let the queen mother worry about it, it is the unfilial piety of the sons."
The Queen Mother took his hand, patted the back of his hand, and said seriously: "The so-called Qi family rules the country and equalizes the world." If you want to govern the country, you must first join the family. It is not unreasonable for the ancients to put the Qi family first. Family and talent are prosperous, Your Majesty. ”
"Erchen understands." Shangguan Junye nodded with a teachable expression.
The Queen Mother smiled with satisfaction: "The main position of this harem has also been vacant for two years, has the emperor considered setting up a new queen?" ”
"Well, it's been two years before I know it, and time flies." Shangguan Junye sighed with emotion, and then asked: "According to the queen mother's opinion, among the harem concubines, who can take on this important responsibility?" ”
The Queen Mother didn't expect that he would accept her opinion without objection.
The best candidate in her mind is naturally her niece, Concubine Lan.
"The harem concubines are old and young, and they will only be jealous. The emperor, the internal move does not avoid relatives. In the view of the mourning family, in the harem, only Concubine Lan is the most stable and sensible, and she is the only one who gave birth to a dragon son for the emperor, and her father has made meritorious contributions to the court and is in an important position. According to the ancestral system, she is qualified to take on this great responsibility. ”
Once Concubine Lan sits on the throne of the queen, her son will definitely be made the crown prince. At that time, their Gao family's power in the imperial court will be even more solid.
Shangguan Junye pondered for a moment, and said without promising or refusing: "I also think that Concubine Lan is dignified and delicate, and I will seriously consider the queen mother's suggestion." ”
This ambiguous answer made her a little suspicious. If she is the only candidate, what else is there to consider? Could it be that the emperor really wants to be promoted to Concubine Li?
This time, I came just to test the emperor's thoughts, and I couldn't be too close. After all, it was a big deal, and she knew that it was not easy to decide.
However, the emperor did not show rejection of her suggestion just now, which proves that Concubine Lan still has a relatively large chance. However, it is Li Guifei who is favored now. The people of their Nalan family have always been ambitious, and they are not fuel-efficient lamps, so they have to guard against it.
——
The moon is bright and the stars are scarce, and the breeze is just right.
A luxurious carriage was driving slowly down the wide road. The horse's hooves stepped on the bluestone slab, and there was a regular clicking sound, which sounded particularly hypnotic.
Ah Jiu covered his mouth and yawned, looked at the darkness ahead, and said to Bai Ze, who was driving next to him, with a slight complaint: "How long will it take to arrive?" It's slowing down, too. ”
Bai Ze focused his eyes on the front and replied honestly: "The prince likes to enter late, so as to show his identity." ”
Ah Jiu: "......"
Playing a big name! What stinky virtue this is.
Ah Jiu glanced behind him, shook his head with disdain, then turned his head and whispered, "Your family's popularity must be very bad." ”
Bai Ze: "......"
Ah Jiu clearly hooked his shoulder and patted him like a buddy, and the corners of his mouth raised a sly smile, revealing a "tacit" expression.
Bai Ze: "......" Actually, what he wants to say is that men and women do not kiss, such a move is undignified.
He lifted his lips, and before he could advise her to keep her distance, the little hand on his shoulder spontaneously loosened.
Bai Ze quietly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and pretended to move his stiff shoulders unintentionally.
To be honest, he has never been so intimate with the opposite sex when he is so old. Although she was dressed as a small maid at the moment, when she approached, the faint fragrance of women lingered on the tip of his nose, making his cheeks irritable for no reason.
"Hey, how old are you?"
Bai Ze was silent for a few seconds and replied, "Twenty." ”
"Are you married?"
It's not that she's gossiping, it's so boring, if you don't find something to say, you probably have to doze off.
"Nope."
"Twenty is not too young in your age, but you haven't married yet." Ah Jiu bent his knees, held his chin and turned his head to look at him, and said, "You are also very good-looking, have you ever been in love?" ”
Bai Ze's face was expressionless, but a suspicious flush appeared on his handsome face.
His skin was fair, and he was clearly recognizable in the bright moonlight. Ah Jiu approached him, opened his eyes and said in surprise: "Wow, you are blushing." Such innocence, it can't be a virgin, right? ”
Bai Ze almost choked on his own saliva. It's really amazing!
He stared at her fiercely, looking embarrassed and embarrassed, a little annoyed. Listen, what is this like? A serious woman should not discuss this with a man. Even if it is a Qinglou woman, it will not be so direct.
How did the Feng family raise such a ...... A daughter who is uninhibited and dares to speak up?
Ah Jiu was stared at by him with an innocent face, spread his hands, and pouted casually: "It's not a shameful thing, you tell me about it, maybe I can introduce you to a good girl." ”
The corners of Bai Ze's mouth twitched, and a few black lines hung on his forehead. There was some complaint in his heart about why the master put this woman by his side.
The people in the car seemed to hear his heart, and at this moment, Shen Yue's voice came from inside: "Ah Jiu, come in." ”
Ah Jiu was stunned for a moment, and then frowned, refusing his order from the bottom of his heart.
She hated being alone with that black.
"Does the prince have any orders?" She didn't move her hips and refused to go in.
"Come in." The low voice does not fluctuate, and I can't hear emotions, but it also makes people very frightened.
Ah Jiu squirmed her lips and silently broke her thoughts, and she didn't have to listen to it to know that she must be scolding her master.
Bai Ze was in a very happy mood, with an expression that he wished she could quickly leave his sight.
Ah Jiu glared at Bai Ze.
Bai Ze shrugged, with an expression of "nothing to do with me" on his face, but the corners of his mouth were raised gloatingly.
Can't drink the monk's urine? I don't know what I'm having fun with.
Reluctantly, she turned around and entered the carriage, and saw Shangguan's peerless figure half-leaning on the cushion in a lazy posture, holding a luminous cup in his hand, and shaking the wine in the cup comfortably. A pair of peach blossom electric eyes looked at her directly, and her thin lips slowly approached the rim of the cup, and she drank it elegantly.
"Good wine." The deep sound is as intoxicating as mellow wine. Ah Jiu even had the illusion that he was not drinking, but her......
thought that he would really ignore the world's eyes and blatantly take her to attend, but who knew that he would let her dress up as a little girl. In order not to make people suspicious, he also gave her a special pet-like name - Ah Mao.
Ah Jiu decisively refused. It's not called Ah Mao's real name. So she insisted on calling Ah Jiu.
"What's the fuss, come here."
Ah Jiu came back to his senses and cursed in his heart: Damn! It's so wicked and sultry to drink a drink. What kind of prince to be, go and be a cowherd, forget it, and ensure that the wealth is rolling in.
She didn't move and asked, "Does the prince have any orders?" ”
Shangguan looked at her in a peerless and gloomy manner, his thin lips were slightly hooked, his long arms stretched out, and he dragged her to his side, and the warm breath mixed with the mellow aroma of wine came to his face: "I was chatting so happily outside just now, why did I look defensive as soon as I came in, I was afraid that this king would not eat you?" ”
