Later in the day, someone asked to pay homage to Bao Xi, the news that she woke up had been spread because of the visit to the East Palace, and in the afternoon Twenty-seven went to the East Palace to report to Shen Hou on behalf of Bao Xi, Shen Hou was also quite surprised, looking at Twenty-seven Half a day can not come back to his senses, I don't know what happened to this sudden change in Bao Xi?

And who will come to pay homage at this moment, Ling Baoxi is a little puzzled, she has never had any popularity, so she looked at Twenty-seven, Twenty-seven also shook her head, and cast her eyes on the person who came to report, and the person also shook his head, and just said, "It's a man." ”

"Men?" Bao Xi repeated, stood up, waved her hand and motioned for someone to invite the other party, she thought that it should be Yu Shi's father who got the news and came to greet her, so she let Twenty-seven carry herself towards the main hall, she had a headache, and her physical condition that had just woken up made her have no time to deal with these things.

The door of the main hall came slowly, the light shone in, and the appearance of the person who came could not be seen clearly from the backlight for a while, and after a while, the outline was revealed, and Bao Xi stood up with some surprise, "Uncle? ”

"I haven't seen you for many days, don't you come unharmed?" Uncle Zhao saluted Bao Xi, stood up straight again, looked at her and smiled.

"Thanks to my uncle, everything is fine." Bao Xi responded.

"Is that all right?" Uncle Zhao asked, he came back a few days earlier, and sent someone to pass the news to Ji Gongyan, until in recent days, Bao Xi was not so worried about his life, so he took the time to go out to meet this meritorious man who came back from Qi State, "This time I almost lost my life, how can you dare to make such a decision?" ”

"It's not good to fall into the hands of people after all," Bao Xi just shook her head, "Now the alarm has finally been lifted." ”

"It shouldn't be so extreme." Uncle Zhao criticized, "Don't take it as an example!" ”

"Uncle said me?" Bao Xi sighed softly, if it was said that the extreme Uncle Zhao and Ji Gong were not bad at it, she didn't know how he could stand up to reprimand her, "The king asked you to come?" ”

Uncle Zhao shook his head, "Do you know that the life of a harem woman in this life is given to the king!" ”

Bao Xi nodded, this was also what she said to Ji Gongyan at the beginning, but now she has to be taught a lesson by others, which is inevitably a little ridiculous. Uncle Zhao, who was informed by the people around Ji Gongyan after he went to Youyang Palace, hoped that this uncle could help and speak up here.

Uncle Zhao naturally didn't dare to delay for a moment when he heard the news, how embarrassing the current predicament was, Uncle Zhao knew better than anyone else, so he must not let Bao Xi disturb Ji Gongyan's decision, so as to make a decision that would be detrimental to the overall situation.

"Then you should believe him." Uncle Zhao said.

Bao Xi looked at Uncle Zhao and stopped talking, but finally shook his head, "Bao Xi has always understood the reason why Uncle stayed in the pickaxe capital, but now he finally understands." ”

"I've been following the king since he was seven years old." Uncle Zhao nodded, and did not deny his sincerity to Ji Gongyan, which is why Uncle Zhao was so unpopular in the capital of Ho, but still refused to leave. If it weren't for his mediation, I am afraid that the replacement of the old ministers in this court would never be so fast.

"So when I lobbied my father, I also wanted to send all the princes to prison, and then replace them with new courtiers, so that the king could control the entire Zhou Dynasty?" Bao Xi's heart is cold, the continuation of the Xia, Shang and Zhou system has not undergone fundamental changes, the royal family has always been just a false name, and the real power is in the hands of the princes, Ji Gongyan is dissatisfied with a puppet in front of the stage, but to let this system completely change and disappear, what he wants is the unification of the country and the country, and truly realize the grand wish of the whole world is not the king's land.

"It's just an assumption, and it can't be as good as it could be." Uncle Zhao neither affirmed nor denied, "So the king must be foolproof and not fall into the hands of others, from the day he reigned, he must be ruthless." ”

"What can I do?" Bao Xi asked, she had already heard the meaning of Uncle Zhao's words.

"You can not love him, but you can't refuse him." Uncle Zhao's tone is an order as an elder, to praise Xi and let go of all the personal feelings of his children.

"I can't do it," Bao Xi stood up and looked at Uncle Zhao, and said coldly, "Uncle, please go back, Bao Xi knows what she is doing!" ”

"You don't know him," Uncle Zhao said, "When the first king heard rumors and killed the baby girl, he was only seven years old, and almost overnight, the girls of the same age and even younger babies around him disappeared. And these women are innocent at all, and the reason is that the ministers of the princely faction are alarmist and cause turmoil. In the fourteenth year of the republic of my Great Zhou Dynasty, the first king was able to ascend the throne after nine deaths, and the princes rose up, and they were all ready to move, and when it came to the king's generation, they couldn't make a mistake! ”

"Uncle," Bao Xi's voice was very plain and gentle, "The king married Empress Shen in order to get the support of the princes' faction, married Mrs. Qin for the sake of Qin's military power, Mrs. Wei was forced to do so, and Mrs. Zheng was for the interests of Zheng State, so what about me?" ”

Uncle Zhao moved his mouth and did not speak.

"I'm just an accident," Bao Xi looked at Uncle Zhao and said, shaking his head, "No matter what I do or don't do, it will have no impact on the entire situation, why do you put me at this height and have to take on the responsibility of the world?" I'm just an ordinary woman, I can't go in and seek sole favor, why can't I retreat to the cold palace? ”

"It's because you're an accident that you're most likely to shake Ji Gongyan's heart!" Uncle Zhao said it, what he was worried about was that Ji Gongyan had true feelings for Bao Xi, otherwise he would not be able to let Bao Xi get out of his control so much.

Not to mention taking care of her for seven days and seven nights before the bed, sleepless, even when he treated Jiang Hou at the beginning, Ji Gongyan did not do his best, he refused to reward her, I am afraid that what he left her will be shoulder to shoulder, at that time, everything will be out of control, and the rivers and mountains of the Great Zhou will also gallop in an unpredictable direction.

"No," Bao Xi sneered, and when she said this, she barely used any emotion.

"You don't know him!" Uncle Zhao said.

Bao Xi shook her head, looked at Twenty-seven and said, "Send it off, I'm tired and want to go back to rest." ”

"Yes! Niangniang," Twenty-seven glanced at Uncle Zhao helplessly, stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction outside the door, "Zhao Gong, please." ”

Uncle Zhao shook his head, so he had to walk outside, and along the way, Twenty-seven lowered his voice and said to Uncle Zhao, "The slave has already persuaded Niangniang, how does the king take care of Niangniang these days, Twenty-seven sees it in his eyes, it's just Niangniang's ......" she said and sighed, "I'm afraid that this time it's heartbroken, and I won't get better anymore." ”

"Bao Xi is not such a character," Uncle Zhao frowned and shook his head, and instructed Twenty-seven, "If there is anything, you tell me in time." ”

"Don't worry, Zhao Gong, from time to time, I will also persuade Niangniang." Twenty-seven took Uncle Zhao to the door, Uncle Zhao took a few more words before leaving with confidence, the door of the Qiongtai Hall was closed again, and the relationship between it and the outside world was cut off.

Bao Xi returned to the dormitory, closed the door, and sat on the bed in a dejected manner, holding her knees in a daze, her mind blank.

"Mother?" Twenty-seven knocked on the door lightly and walked in, Bao Xi raised her head and looked at Twenty-seven, "Uncle is gone?" ”

"Niangniang, when are you going to be angry?" Twenty-seven looked at Bao Xi and asked, "You are so angry with the king, aren't you just as uncomfortable in your heart?" Is there anything you can't say to the king? ”

"It's he who refuses to spread it out for me," Bao Xi looked at Twenty-seven and said, blinking, trying to stop the tears from falling in her eyes, for a woman, the most important thing is to give birth, the so-called mother is expensive by son, son is expensive by mother, it can be said that motherhood is a woman's nature, whether it is ordinary people or women in the palace, no one does not want to be happy under their knees, but even this right Ji Gongyan has been deprived, she can't convince herself not to complain, "Help me check, the incense of Qiongtai Palace." ”

"What do you mean?" Twenty-seven looked at Bao Xi vigilantly and asked.

"I'm afraid that Mrs. Zheng's miscarriage will have nothing to do with Qiongtai Palace," Bao Xi said, her hand clenched tightly, "The incense of Qiongtai Hall has probably always been musk." Dad doesn't like fragrance, so the Bao family has never burned incense since I was a child, I don't understand, and it's really strange to think about it now. ”

"You doubt the king......" Twenty-seven covered her mouth and looked at Bao Xi.

Bao Xi nodded.

"But why is the king?" Twenty-seven shook his head in confusion.

"Because I am a chess piece that can be discarded at any time," Bao Xi said with a frown, "I have just entered the palace and have been favored, and everyone envies me for being extremely honored, but the fact is that the king has shifted everyone's attention from the fact that Madame Zheng is pregnant to me. "This matter should not be mentioned again, but Bao Xi had to face it, this is the whole reason for his favor," for him, I came when I called, and when I waved, he forced him, and when Shenhou forced him, he asked me to stand in front and lead the ministers to join me; Later, Empress Shen forced him, and he pushed me in front again, and I offended the entire harem again; My uncle can throw me to the ground in a temper, and I need to take care of him when he is seriously injured. I confessed his affection, and he loved other women in the palace; I don't admit his affection, so he picks flowers for other women; Even the game of Zheng Situ was used by him; Mrs. Zheng had a miscarriage, he knew it was his fault, but he slapped me in the face......" She pursed her lips and looked at Twenty-seven, "He is a high king, since he was a child, he should be, I should not be disobedient, if this is a harem woman, I would rather die!" ”

"Niangniang," Twenty-seven cried, lying in front of Bao Xi's bed.

"Go find out about the musk for me," Bao Xi said lightly, "I will never allow myself to fall in one place twice in a row, and die as depressed as my mother." ”
