Ji Gongyan felt that he might not have heard what Uncle Qin was talking about, so he restrained his expression, frowned, and then asked again, "Uncle Qin said that the widow would abolish Empress Shen?" ”

"Exactly, the queen's loss of virtue is a disaster for the people, please think twice." Uncle Qin's momentum was aggressive, what made the king think twice was not that the queen was immoral, but that he was trying to make the king use the conditions of the abolition of the queen in exchange for the dispatch of troops from the Qin State, Ji Gongyan rubbed his temples, took a deep breath for a long time, and said in a tentative tone, "Now that Shenhou is still in the court, these ministers are all helping him, but I am afraid that if the widow proposes to abolish it, it will cause an uproar!" ”

"The king doesn't have to worry," Qin Bo said, "Now that Shenhou and Dog Rong Man are also quickly colluding in an attempt to lure Dog Rong from Baodi to invade the Central Plains, if this matter is known to other princes, I am afraid that Shenhou will soon lose his position in the court, and the king will not have to worry about the uproar caused by the abolition." ”

Ji Gongyan's face darkened, and his eyes were like the brilliance of a vulture looking down on the earth, "So...... According to Qin Bo's words, how can the widow let the princes know about Shenhou's betrayal? The widow has been prejudiced against Shenhou for a long time, but I am afraid that the officials of the DPRK and China will not believe what the widow says. ”

The surname Shen, like the surname Jiang, is a descendant of the Shennong clan, while Ji Gongyan is a descendant of the Xuanyuan clan. Since the Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor joined forces to fight against the Chiyou tribe and unified the world, China is all the Yan and Huang tribes, so in all dynasties, the queen is mostly from the Shennong clan, although this branch has no real power, but it has the right to speak in the court.

Now Uncle Qin's words have made Ji Gongyan's heart a little more thorough, whether Shenhou really collaborated with the enemy and treason, I am afraid that this matter of Uncle Qin will have to be discussed again, but this Uncle Qin's ambition is not shallow, looking at the princes today, I am afraid that only the State of Chu can compete with the State of Qin.

The Qin State is small and the people are poor, but the people are strong; The state of Chu has a vast land and rich people, but its military strength is far inferior to that of Qin. Therefore, Qin expanded to seize the resources of the hinterland of the Central Plains; The state of Chu is very comfortable, there are very few regional conflicts, even if it wants to border with the south, it has been peaceful all these years.

Ji Gongyan looked at Uncle Qin and smiled, "If Uncle Qin can take the ability to command the ministers from Shenhou's hands, this position will naturally be Mrs. Qin's!" ”

Qin Bo suppressed his smile, twisted the beard on his chin and nodded slightly, "I am afraid that it will take more than two months for the Qin * team to send troops from the Qin State to the Qi State, and the old minister can order them to set off immediately." ”

"It's hard work Uncle Qin," Ji Gongyan squinted at Uncle Qin, he naturally had his own calculations in his heart, once Uncle Qin mediated the establishment of his party system in the court, Ji Gongyan could take advantage of the situation to insert his own people in, and the people who could still do it were unaware, only the situation was chaotic There was a chance, and now he needed such a person who made a mess of the situation too much.

On the second day, news came from the palace, saying that the king had rewarded Mrs. Qin with a bronze tripod, a cangbi huangcong, and a brocade forged silk...... He threw down the pregnant Mrs. Zheng again, accompanied Uncle Qin and Mrs. Qin to the garden to enjoy the lake, and renamed a peony garden in the palace to Yi Garden, Mrs. Qin's name was Ying Yi, and this arrangement was obviously the king's favor.

There is also a saying about this matter, the ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens coordinated and mediated, and Mrs. Qin bowed to the greatest. The entire harem got the news on this day, and in an instant, several rooms became a mess. Now Ji Gongyan's behavior is becoming more and more difficult to figure out, first Mrs. Zheng Jinwu Zangjiao, then Bao Xi Yue Dai, and now it is Empress Shen who contributes to Mrs. Qin's credit, Mrs. Wei whispered in Empress Shen's ear, "I'm afraid that this Mrs. Qin is a ruthless character!" I think that this matter of the demon concubine of the country must be inseparable from her, and Mrs. Zheng's miscarriage may have been caused by her, and now she is pointing the finger at Niangniang, but she wants to replace it? ”

"You don't have to say a word," Shen Hou held his temple, his heart was a mess, first his father was suspected of collaborating with the enemy and treason, and then Shen Hou refused to attend the ceremony of sacrificing to the sky in the capital of the pickaxe, and then came out the news that Bao Xi attended the ceremony for himself.

The entire harem was not lively, but Empress Shen's heart was as cold as the cold winter of Sanjiu, Mrs. Wei not only did not stop but continued, "The matter of the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony was obviously arranged by the mother, but when it came, it was the praise that took charge of the gift for you, and when you accepted the reward, it was Mrs. Qin who received the reward on your behalf. If you want me to say, the king let this Bao Xi stand in front of her, but also to hide Mrs. Qin behind her, so that Niang Niang and Bao Xi can fight, and she can benefit from it. ”

Shinhou gasped, trying to stay calm.

Mrs. Wei was still chattering and saying, "Now that Qi is at war with Dongyi, Zheng Qizhi is just a weak scholar, where does he know what to lead troops to fight, and now it is all luck to win a big victory, who knows if it is a trap set by Dongyi, he will counterattack in the future, Zheng Qizhi will lose his armor if he is not even, if Zheng Qizhi's army is defeated, Mrs. Zheng will definitely be implicated, and the cold palace is the best destination." When the time comes, the king will have to rely on the power of Uncle Qin to resist the invasion of foreign tribes, how can the position of a mere lady accommodate that Mrs. Qin, when the time comes, Uncle Qin will pinch the king's life, but it will be what he wants! Back then, the king had promised her the throne, but now I don't know ......."

"Enough!" Empress Shen scolded Mrs. Wei's words, her voice was very loud, her whole face was pale, she could barely support her emotions, and she trembled, "When will it be your turn to dictate the king's arrangement, if you have this time, take care of the ladies in your own room and don't come out to make trouble again!" ”

"Mother, people just care about you." Mrs. Wei suddenly felt very aggrieved, and immediately her face was full of tears, "If Niangniang doesn't appreciate it, I won't say it in the future." She stood up and stomped her feet, inhaled deeply, turned her back to Empress Shen and said, "I'll retire first, Niang Niang is so healthy to recuperate." ”

"This palace has no other meaning," Empress Shen looked at Mrs. Wei, her tone softened again, Mrs. Wei's personality has always been like this, Wei is a small country, Mrs. Wei's relatives have no status in the court, she can only stir up and stir up this troubled water in the palace, the west family and the owner are short of nonsense, thinking that they can make profits from it, in fact, there has been no achievement in the harem for many years, Shen Hou couldn't bear it, and explained, "This palace has not been in a good mood for the past two days, and the words are serious, and this palace also knows that you just care about me, but ......" She shook her head as she spoke, and now that she also had a handle in Mrs. Qin's hands, she didn't dare to act rashly.

"What are you going to do?" Mrs. Wei asked.

Empress Shen shook her head, at a loss, and let out a long sigh, now that she is not doing well, it will be useless to do anything, but Mrs. Wei mentioned a sentence or two after Shen at this moment, she stepped forward and whispered, "Actually, I think this Uncle Qin is very problematic!" ”

"How?" Shen Hou looked up at Mrs. Wei and asked.

"The Qin State borders on the Dog Rong, and the Dog Rong army has been defeated in the past few years, but I am afraid that it has already been arrogant to the point of being invincible, how can the land of the Qin State accommodate such a wolf ambition figure?" Mrs. Wei analyzed, looked at Shen Hou and said, "If you use the power of the dog Rong, I am afraid that it will be a matter of time before Qi Qi enters the capital of the pickaxe, and it will not be possible to ensure that this Qin Bo is playing this wishful thinking." ”

This sentence is like an initiation, so that Shen Hou suddenly understood one thing, whether Shen Hou has treason and collaboration with the enemy, I am afraid that this matter will have to be reconsidered, if Mrs. Qin really pinched her own handle, she would be so kind to keep reminding herself, but never debunked? Empress Shen smiled slightly and clasped her hands together.

……

Three days later, Zheng Boyou resigned, early in the morning someone came to the Qiongtai Hall to announce that Bao Xi and Twenty-seven went to the palace at noon, Bao Xi's body was weak, and she had just recovered from the high fever that did not go away, and her face was still pale at the moment.

Bao Xi's body is still very weak, and she looks a little weak when she speaks, but if she wants to send Twenty-seven away today, she naturally has to cheer up her spirits, and Ji Gongyan has not been to Qiongtai Hall in the past few days, that is, Twenty-seven does not say, she still knows what is happening outside, and she will not move if Ji Gongyan does not come, so as to recuperate.

Since she chose this man, she had to put all her net worth here, she wanted to tell Twenty-Seven that she should do the same, but found that it was useless, Twenty-Seven was too simple, and she didn't want to make her complicated anymore.

Bao Xi was dressed in plain white, not at all like she was going to marry her sister, but like she was going to mourn.

When this costume appeared on the front hall, Ji Gongyan frowned, very dissatisfied with Bao Xi's dress, as if he was deliberately provoking his authority as an emperor to vent his dissatisfaction. Her gaze was blank, and she had not found a proper focal point since she entered the front hall, and although her eyes were open, she seemed to be unable to see anything.

Originally, Ji Gongyan wanted to say a few words to Bao Xi, at least to hold her by his side, but now he didn't want to deal with her at all.

Zheng Boyou was officially canonized as Zheng Bo and became the prince of Zheng State, which made Zheng Boyou himself very surprised, he thought that Ji Gongyu would delay the matter until Zheng Qizhi's victory returned to the court. And Ji Gongyan leaned on top of the chair, not caring about the sealing, as if she was asleep, and the Bao Xi on her side was even more weak, and she barely supported her body, she felt dizzy.

After the first edict was read, it was the second letter, and the twenty-seventh was the princess of the Zhou Dynasty.

Twenty-seven was brought to the palace, kneeling on the main hall to Ji Gong Yan thanks, in addition to Zheng Boyou, who was present in charge of the faction of Yu Shifu, Dazai Palace Shangqing Zhao Shu belt, Situ priest Gong and so on, according to the old system, this kind of prosperity to be engraved on the stone drum to record, Ji Gong Yu rewarded the inscription of the copper tripod to Zheng Boyou, Zheng Boyou also immediately thanked Ji Gong Yan.

The last edict Ji Gongyan was handed over to Bao Xi, and she read it, the content of which was to marry Twenty-seven to Zheng Boyou, this time Zheng Boyou left Beijing and took Twenty-seven to Zheng Guo. Bao Xi held this edict made of bamboo slips in her hand, she was dizzy in front of her, she felt acid reflux in her stomach in the morning and didn't eat, and when she stood up at this moment, she felt that her eyes were blank, and before she could make a sound, the whole person fainted.

"!" Twenty-seven shouted, and Ji Gongyan noticed that Bao Xi's crumbling body had let go of the edict in his hand and fell to the side.
