Chapter 50: The Complex Situation
Because of this poisoning, the emperor's uncle granted her a month's leave and let her recuperate.
As for the place where she first woke up, it was the side hall of the East Palace.
At that time, her condition was critical, and the doctor did not recommend moving, for fear of causing other problems.
So, at the suggestion of the imperial doctor, she was moved to the nearest side hall.
After removing the toxin, she asked the imperial doctor that she could go out without being exposed to the wind and cold.
After thinking about it, she chose to go back to the county lord's mansion to recuperate. If you are in the county lord's mansion, it is more convenient to do some things.
Hearing the news that she was going out of the palace, Emperor Wu An also came to the East Palace to meet her, and the two talked secretly for about an hour.
As for what was being discussed, no one else knew about it except the two of them.
After that, she left the palace with Hongxiu and Cuiwei and returned to the county lord's mansion.
As for the Huanxi Building, there are two secret guards arranged by her to keep an eye on it, so there shouldn't be any problems.
After returning to the county lord's mansion, she closed her door and began to study the situation between Korea and China based on the information collected by the secret guards.
After taking a closer look, she realized that the current situation between the DPRK and China is very complicated.
The relationship between the ministers of the DPRK and China is intertwined, especially the relationship between the important ministers by marriage, which affects the whole body!
Take Xie Lingzhi's Yan'an Hou Mansion as an example, the wife of Yan'an Hou, Xie Lingzhi's mother, is the eldest daughter of the Su family among the four major families, and the sister of Su Xun, the head of the Su family.
The previous head of the Su family worshiped the prime minister, and his wife was the daughter of the Chen family, that is, the aunt and grandmother of her second aunt Chen.
Su Chen gave birth to two sons and two daughters, and the eldest son, Su Xun, inherited the family business and became the head of the family.
Now he holds the post of secretary in the court, and his wife is the daughter of the king of Huai'an, the lord of Fenyang. The two have been married for more than 20 years and have a pair of dragon and phoenix twins.
The eldest daughter, Su Min, married into the Hou Mansion in Yan'an, became Mrs. Hou, and gave birth to a son, Xie Lingzhi.
The second son, Su Mo, entered the army for training, and is now an official to a captain, and has not yet married a wife.
The youngest daughter, Su Yan, married Prince Zhuang as a side concubine a year ago, and gave birth to Prince Zhuang's eldest son not long ago.
As for Su Rui, who made Xie Lingzhi infatuated in her previous life, she was the daughter of the dragon and phoenix born to the county lord of Fenyang.
Soon after Su Rui was born, Mrs. Hou made a marriage contract with the county lord of Fenyang for her children.
The Marquis of Yan'an Mansion alone became in-laws with the Su family. Not only that, the relationship between Xie Lingzhi and Su Rui also brought the Yan'an Marquis Mansion and Huai'an Wangfu into a relationship.
In addition to the in-laws, there is also a teacher-student relationship, and with these two layers of relationship, there are many factions in the DPRK and China.
However, at present, the DPRK and the Central Committee are divided into two factions, the civilian faction headed by Prime Minister Zhang Wenjun, and the military attaché faction headed by the general Sima Zhan.
The two factions checked and balanced each other and contained each other, and the DPRK and China were temporarily in a state of calm.
The reason why such a balance was reached is probably planned by the emperor's uncle.
It's just that, judging from the overall situation, it is an indisputable fact that the royal family is in a weak position because of the withering of heirs.
The situation of 'strong ministers and weak kings' is probably the most troublesome thing for the emperor's uncle now.
However, the only prince, the crown prince, has never been able to take on the big responsibility.
Therefore, her appearance gave the emperor's uncle hope to break this situation.
It's not that she's capable, it's about who she is!
First of all, as long as Grandpa is still alive, she has the support of the Zhenguo Mansion behind her, and the Zhenguo Gong has an army of 200,000 in the northwest!
Except for the fact that she grew up in the northwest with her grandfather since she was a child, she also knows some strategies for marching and fighting, and Grandpa's three sons do not have any talent for marching and fighting.
In addition, she and Grandpa have been staying in the northwest for more than ten years, and after Grandpa returned to the central court, he was already able to fight against the great general Sima Zhan!
The originally calm situation between the DPRK and China has already been shattered.
In addition to the fact that she has Zhen Guogong behind her, it is her identity as a member of the 'Xiao' family!
She is the county lord of the royal jade plate, and she was given the surname 'Xiao', and she is a royal clansman.
Although he is the county lord, in terms of blood relationship, he is already the closest person to the emperor's uncle.
In this regard, even Xiao Qi can't compare to her.
Judging from these reasons, she is probably the most suitable person that the emperor's uncle can find.
In her previous life, I was afraid that the emperor's uncle also had this consideration, but at that time, she was blinded by Xie Lingzhi and didn't care about the rest of the things at all.
At that time, what she did inevitably made the emperor's uncle feel that she was overwhelmed, so he let her marry into the Yan'an Marquis Mansion.
Although these were all her guesses, she felt that she had already guessed eight or nine.
In this life, Xiao Qi has also undergone tremendous changes, and maybe things about Xiao Qi will also undergo tremendous changes.
In his previous life, the emperor's uncle died suddenly, and Xiao Qi was pushed into that position unprepared.
Even if Xiao Qi is good at hiding, he doesn't know anything about government politics, and this point can never be changed.
Even if he studied hard after ascending the throne, it was impossible for him to get started in a short time.
What's more, the relations between the DPRK and China were already complicated at that time, and there was no time for him to learn.
Therefore, it will be so easy for Xie Lingzhi to take Prince Zhuang to force the palace to rebel.
And in this life, she said that she would never let the things of the previous life repeat in this life!
She will nip the danger in the bud so that they don't have a chance to force the palace to rebel!
Sorting out the relations between the DPRK and China, as well as knowing and remembering important officials in the DPRK and China, is quite brain-draining.
In addition, her body was a little weak due to poisoning, and she contracted the wind chill two days after returning to the county lord's mansion.
Hongxiu took her token and hurried into the palace and found the imperial doctor, who quickly prescribed a prescription and ordered Hongxiu to decoct the medicine.
Because of the wind and cold, her whole body became groggy, and she could only feel that someone was helping her up, and then she leaned into an embrace full of cold incense.
She seemed to be very familiar with this cold smell, and before she could figure out who it was, the bitter medicinal smell spread in her mouth.
The bitter smell of medicine stimulated her taste buds and made her conscious slightly.
When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was the four-clawed dragon pattern woven with gold thread on the apricot yellow brocade robe.
When she saw the pattern, she realized that she was holding the identity of the person who fed her medicine.
She didn't think much of it, just wondered why he was in the county lord's mansion.
After drinking the medicine, her fingers, which were as white as jade, stuffed a round fruit into her mouth.
The sweet taste spreads in the mouth, suppressing the original bitter medicinal taste.
"Sister Han, are you feeling better?!" In the elegant and pure voice, there are countless worries.
She struggled to get up from his arms, and Xiao Qi seemed to find this position inappropriate, and helped her to sit up.
I was afraid that she would be uncomfortable to sit on, so I deliberately put a soft pillow behind her so that she could lean on it, so that it would be more comfortable.
