"So if the Marquis of Chu can capture the Shen State, I'm afraid that when the Shen State is annexed, it won't be so smooth!" Bao Xi picked up Ji Gongyan's words and said, Ji Gongyu nodded, "Then Yijiu will definitely not dare to return to the capital, he will definitely be exiled, and from now on without the blessing of Shenhou, it can be regarded as a roadblock for you and your uncle, from now on, you don't have to worry about whether the widow is angry with you." ”

Bao Xi opened her mouth, and wanted to say something more, but in the end she didn't say it.

When Ji Gongyan was no longer there, when Nian'er was 100 years old, he was asked to draw lots to decide the way in the future, and everyone expected the young prince to be able to choose the right, but unfortunately the sky did not fulfill people's wishes, and the young prince only wanted to live a life of firewood, rice, oil and salt. Bao Xi actually wants to say that she doesn't want so much, it's just that Bofu is healthy and Ji Gongyan's position is stable, but now that Ji Gongyan has presented the country, no matter how humble she is, it makes people feel a little unappetizing.

Bao Xi and Ji Gongyan were on the front of the main hall of the East Palace, but they didn't know that there was another person around them who was secretly spying on, and now Qi Zheng's marriage made Wei Guo, who was caught in the middle, feel very uncomfortable. This time the dispute between Qi and Song, because of an unintentional word of the suzerain of Wei, stabbed out the fact that the Marquis of Chu was preparing to help the Song State attack the Qi State, and the Qi State used this as an excuse to gather several princes and work together to defend near Wancheng, preparing to attack the Song State and secure the Central Plains situation.

This matter is too popular in the Qi State, and Qi Bo must have felt the dissatisfaction of Ji Gongyan, who is the monarch, but the fact is that the Chu State actually competed with the Yu State, and the Chu Marquis Xiong Yi left a large number of people and went to the pickaxe capital alone, which made the Qi State very suspicious that the Chu Marquis was not interested in helping the Song State in the first place. This back and forth, naturally suspected of the head of the Wei State, now Qi Zheng marriage, the weak Wei State in the center, has always been left and right in order to survive in the Wei State is now in a precarious situation, Mrs. Wei boasted that her relationship with Bao Xi was also good, she knew that Bao Xi would definitely leave early, so she came to the East Palace early to wait, and was worried that she would bump into Bao Xi and Ji Gongyan come back together, this was not very good, so she had to wait in secret.

It doesn't matter, but when he heard Ji Gongyan's words, Ji Gongyan wanted to get rid of Yijiu, which frightened Mrs. Wei's face pale, and she couldn't imagine that this monarch would attack her son for a woman. If there is all competition, the royal family is unstable, and those who are in the center cannot sway left and right, Ji Gongyan knows very well in his heart, plus his feelings for Yijiu are really weak, Yijiu took his throne again that day, and he also wished that his father would die in a foreign country...... The relationship between father and son is really difficult to measure by family affection.

Despite all the reasons, Madame Wei still couldn't convince herself to face Ji Gongyan's decision, and this king was willing to promise all kinds of promises for Bao Xi, and this sentiment had surpassed everyone in the harem. The position of the Empress Bao depends on the strength of Zheng Guo, and now the king has also given the land of Jiao Guo to Zheng Guo, and the rise of Zheng Guo is a complete deterrent to Wei State. I am afraid that the cause of today's situation is not others, but Bao Xi himself.

Mrs. Wei leaned against the wall, her hands clasped tightly together, closed her eyes and sighed, she felt that she didn't need to talk to Bao Xi about the danger of Wei now, Bao Xi was just saying something nice to persuade her, and she would not hurt her own interests at all. Listening to Bao Xi and Ji Gongyan returning to the dormitory, Mrs. Wei returned to the palace alone, and she was terrified and difficult to choose.

She walked back and forth in her palace, and finally went straight out, walking towards the cold palace of Empress Shen, her steps getting faster and faster, as if she was going to send troops to Shen State if she was a little later. In the end, almost the whole person trotted all the way to the palace of Queen Shen, the palace was still brightly lit, Queen Shen had not yet fallen asleep, Mrs. Wei lay on the doorpost at the door and pinched the handkerchief in her hand to cover her mouth, panting heavily.

Empress Shen was sitting on one side of the main hall and was flipping through the bamboo slips in her hand, savoring the contents of the bamboo slips, and hearing the movement of someone coming in, she raised her head to look at Mrs. Wei outside the door, and frowned slightly, no one has come to this palace for a long time, and now it feels fresh to see Mrs. Wei come to pay respects, and the red lips lightly asked, "Mrs. Wei?" What are you doing here? ”

"I'm ......," Mrs. Wei said as she shook the handkerchief in her hand and gasped, "I'm here to report the news!" ”

"Reporting? What letter? Shen Hou asked puzzled.

"Niangniang is afraid that she doesn't know something, today the king abolished the old prince and set up a new prince!" Mrs. Wei said, first explain this matter and discuss, her face was pale, she didn't know what would be good for her if she kept the Shen State, but after thinking about it, she felt that she couldn't let the situation develop like this anyway, if Bao Xi took what she wanted, then sooner or later she would want her Wei State, the princes and small countries of the Central Plains were gradually annexed by the big countries, and the effect of weak troops was annexed by the big countries with strong troops, and then there were fewer and less, less and less, and the world would become Ji Gongyan alone, And not to get a piece of the pie with anyone.

"I already know about this matter, since the king has established a queen, it is also appropriate to change his uncle's clothes to the crown prince." Empress Shen's face was pale, but her tone seemed very calm and said to Mrs. Wei, and immediately lowered her head, for fear that her eyes would betray her flustered mood at the moment.

"Does Empress Shen really think so?" Mrs. Wei knew Empress Shen too well, and walked in her direction, her breath was also a little more even, and she had slowly recovered from the panic just now, and sat on her side to carefully look at Empress Shen's expression.

Shen Hou was looked at a little unnaturally, and the two of them were facing each other in this empty hall, and even the sound of breathing was extremely clear. At this moment, there are no more serving people in this cold palace, and it has always been a feature of the cold palace that people sleep earlier than the masters, so there is no need to worry about the ears on the wall. Empress Shen didn't look at Mrs. Wei, but just nodded to herself, with an impatient emotion on her face, "Didn't Mrs. Wei come here to taunt me so she reluctantly came here for a while?" ”

"Empress Shen just looks at me like this?" Mrs. Wei asked.

"People are warm and cold, that's it, and I have no complaints!" Shen Hou said.

"If it weren't for the Empress Shen that day, how could I marry into the palace and enjoy this glory and wealth?" Mrs. Wei said.

"Are you blaming me?" Empress Shen turned to Mrs. Wei and asked.

"Shen Hou is only afraid that he has been alone for a long time, some are too sensitive, now I am very satisfied with this day, and there is no complaint in my heart, I remember that Shen Hou always takes care of me from time to time, and I fight with Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Zheng, I feel that the past days are really beautiful, I don't want today's harem, lifeless, every day is orderly is those things, there is no concubine and wife in the harem to compete for favor, the king put all his thoughts on the body of the queen of praise." Mrs. Wei said to Empress Shen in a lamenting tone, her eyes full of tears, and she seemed to be very emotional.

Empress Shen was touched by what Mrs. Wei said, and gently touched the corners of her eyes with her fingertips, then took a deep breath and straightened her complexion, "That's fine, there are fewer things in the harem that are deceitful, and it can always be better." ”

"If Empress Shen really thinks so, I can't help it!" Mrs. Wei looked at Empress Shen and said, "But if the king wants to be able to praise and feel at ease, he wants to kill Yijiu, what does Empress Shen think?" ”

The bamboo slip in Empress Shen's hand fell to the ground suddenly, rolled out a distance of several meters, her face became extremely pale, and she suddenly cast her gaze on Mrs. Wei in front of her, her whole face was full of the word horror, and she looked at Mrs. Wei and swallowed a deep mouthful of saliva, and then asked, "How did you know about this?" ”

"Probably the heavens are pitiful, I originally planned to go to the East Palace at night to report to the Empress Bao about the specific situation of the sacrifice these days, and now that the sacrifice ceremony is over, everything can be regarded as an understanding, but I didn't expect that I went a little early, so I waited in the East Palace alone. Just waiting, the king came back after complimenting, and heard something that should not be heard, so he hurriedly came to Shen Hou to talk about it, but I am afraid that this matter must be prepared in advance, but I am afraid that if it is not stopped in time, Shen Hou will definitely spend the rest of his life with tears! ”

Mrs. Wei's speech has always been sensational, and Empress Shen has long been accustomed to it, so she didn't pay much attention to it and said, "What the king and Empress Bao talked about must have nothing to do with you and me, so why would I say that I would wash my face with tears?" ”

"It has nothing to do with me, but the relationship with Empress Shen is big!" Mrs. Wei looked left and right, looking at the hypocrisy, seeing that there was indeed no talent in this room, she whispered in Empress Shen's ear, "I heard that the king said with Empress Bao that he would eradicate His Royal Highness Yijiu to be the current crown prince, so that Empress Bao will never have any worries, does Empress Shen think this matter has anything to do with you?" ”

Empress Shen's originally soft demeanor instantly turned pale at this moment, her whole face seemed to be frozen, without the slightest change, her lips were slightly open and stunned at the moment, her eyes stared at a certain place in this room, and she was stuck in her chest in one breath, almost strangling her to death, Mrs. Wei looked at Empress Shen's appearance, and gently pushed her arm, "Niangniang? ”

Empress Shen came back to her senses suddenly, took a few breaths, looked at Mrs. Wei in front of her and asked, "What did the king say with Empress Bao?" ”

In order to relax the heart of the queen, the king decided to destroy the entire Shen State, and asked the Chu State to send troops, once the Chu State defeated the Shen State, the king made the decision to draw the boundaries of the Shen State to the Chu State. If Her Royal Highness loses the backer of Shenhou, this ...... What is the way forward? Niangniang thinks, can you still ask for a quiet place in this harem? ”

Empress Shen squinted at Mrs. Wei, her mind was in a mess, she forced herself to calm down and turned her stiff neck to Mrs. Wei beside her, "What you said is true?" ”

"I'm joking about this, what's in it for me?" Mrs. Wei stomped her feet, "What's more, I know about it, and I don't know how to break it, the king wants to send troops to apply for the country, how can you and I have the power to go against the sky?" Why am I making fun of this? ”

Empress Shen frowned slightly, her fingers tapped lightly on the table, after all, she has been with Ji Gongyan and her husband for more than ten years, and she naturally knows something about her husband, if Ji Gongyan is pretending to be the hand of the Marquis of Chu, she wants to draw a line between this matter and herself, as long as the attack on Chu is not out of Ji Gongyan's original intention, then Empress Shen speculates that there is still room for reversal in this matter.
