When I was talking to Shanwan, Xiaocui kept looking at us stupidly. When we were done, we finally couldn't help but ask, "What are you talking about?" ”

I laughed and scolded, "Stupid! It's a generation stupid. is still Shanwan and clear, and I can see the signs at once. ”

However, Shanwan also paid special attention to the visit of the King of Chu because she heard the wind at home first. But the King of Chu is such a sneaky appearance, which makes it difficult for people not to doubt it.

Xiao Cui glanced at me, "That's because I'm gentle and kind, and I don't have as many fancy intestines as you." ”

Before the words fell, Shanwan and I "poofed" at the same time and laughed.

She's gentle?

Cui may have a lot of virtues, a lot of virtues—I mean maybe—but "gentleness" seems to be lacking in that matter-for-all.

I laughed for a long time before I stopped and said, "Okay, you're gentle." After dinner, I would like to ask this gentle Shang Gong to go to Princess Fanchang's Mansion for me. Uh, forget it, let's go Shanwan, although she is not as gentle as you, but she is smarter and more careful, and she is more suitable for spy work than you. ”

Xiao Cui listened, and said angrily, "I'm not smart, not careful? Both of these are my strengths, okay? Of course, I was sent to be a secret agent, Shanwan's delicate lady-like look, it is impossible to drill dog holes and stick to the wall like me. Hey, agent, who else is me? ”

Shanwan never argued with Xiaocui or anything, seeing Xiaocui volunteering, she immediately said, "Niangniang, you better let her go, otherwise, she will be so angry that she won't be able to sleep tonight." ”

"Okay." Xiaocui is indeed not as good as Shan Wan to do this kind of thing. But she's so active, it's not good not to let her go. I had to tell me again and again, "When you get there, you should be careful." No matter what is said. You always follow her, and it's you. Listen more, see more, talk less. Use your ears and eyes. Fastest update. Use your mouth sparingly. Remember? ”

In case Princess Fanchang and the concubine were nothing, Xiaocui went to say more, which made Fanchang suspicious.

Xiao Cui agreed "mmmmmmmm Xiao Cui does things. It has always been vigorous and resolute, and it is about efficiency. ”

I hurriedly called out to her, "You're going like this?" When you get there, what do you say to Princess Fanchang? ”

Xiaocui scratched her scalp, smiled and said, "I'll just say that the queen is worried about the princess, and she sent a slave to visit." After saying that, he looked at me proudly, waiting for my compliment.

I smiled, "If you're going to see Xiaowu, you can say that." I miss my own sister. Send someone to inquire and greet, that's a good thing to clean up. But Fanchang is not my own sister, and I am not usually close to her to the extent that I send someone to visit her for no reason. ”

"What then?" Cui ran out of ideas.

Shanwan thought for a while and said, "Niangniang." Yesterday, a batch of tribute fruits was sent from the south. There happened to be a princess who liked to eat peaches, so it was better to send her a box of peaches. Anyway, that thing doesn't let go. Not given to her. and he shall give to others. ”

I hurriedly agreed, "Reasonable." Xiaocui, you can bring a box of peaches to see her. Sit with her a little longer, and draw as much of the conversation as you can to the guard. Then listen to what she has to say. Although she won't tell you anything specific, you can basically guess her state of mind from her tone and look. Xiao Cui nodded and said, "Princess Fanchang is a cheerful person, and she can't hide her words in her heart." Maybe after chatting for a long time, talking about intimacy, she can even tell me the secrets of the boudoir. ”

I smiled and said, "Well, what I want to hear is their boudoir secrets." ”

People are like this, the higher their status, the less qualified they are to keep their secrets. When you climb to the throne of the emperor, even sleeping with women has become a matter of business, and there is a special agency in charge of management. You're obviously doing the most intimate thing in the world, but someone arranges everything for you before you do it, someone outside the door is responsible for recording it when you do it, and someone comes in to clear it immediately after you do it. After this whole set of services, the only feeling you have may be only boring.

Fortunately, I am the queen and the emperor's original wife, so I can receive the emperor in my own bedroom freely, and I don't need to go to his bedroom to accept his "happiness". Otherwise, I must have felt very badly.

As for Fanchang, because she is a royal princess, she is the son of a powerful minister. Therefore, their boudoir is private, which is also linked to politics, which has attracted many prying eyes. Most of them have bad intentions and even have hidden murderous intentions.

I couldn't help but sigh deeply.

After watching Xiaocui leave, Shan Wan said a little worriedly, "Niangniang, I really don't want to see someone bleed, and I don't want to see the imperial court reappear in the same scene a few years ago, thousands of heads fell to the ground at the same time, almost staining the water of the Luo River." ”

I immediately reassured her and to myself, "It's not going to happen, everything is still under control." After a while, the fuss passed. After all, the emperor did not remove his officials, and there were no people who moved him, but he just changed the concubine. Even among the people, there are not a few people who regret getting married, and they have not heard of it because of it. ”

Shan Wan said, "That's because no one is stirring up trouble and deliberately stirring up trouble in order to get trouble." ”

When she said this, I was silent. Indeed, the relationship between the people is much simpler, and their affiliation is a kinship, and there are not so many issues of interest involved. regrets the marriage, but this family can't get married. Unlike too much kinship, marriage itself has become secondary, and the power position brought by it is the main one. It is precisely because of the huge interests that are at stake that they will grit their teeth if they fail to get married.

What's more, it is now mixed with Sima Wei. Looking at the way he gloated when he saw Wei Shi today, as well as his act of telling the secret at this sensitive moment, it all shows his attitude towards this matter, beating the water dogs, getting rid of Wei in one fell swoop, and even uprooting the Wei family. In this way, he will no longer have an opponent to compete with in the imperial court in the future, and he will be able to dominate the government.

Shan Wan suddenly smiled and said, "It's really interesting to send the King of Chu to the East Palace as a wife, then the uncle and nephew will definitely hit it off, because they are all the same kind of people." ”

Yes, they are all ruthless and ruthless people. Especially when it comes to dealing with Wei, the two of them behave exactly the same.

The king of Chu was able to become his wife Fu entirely because of the recommendation of the guard. But look at how he repays Wei now? He probably had the same idea as Sima, thinking that Wei was just doing this for himself, not for the sake of him at all. Therefore, instead of appreciating it, he also wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of Wei.

Both the uncle and nephew are excessive, but Wei is not worthy of sympathy, let alone protection. He sees me as a thorn in the flesh, and he wants to get rid of it as soon as possible. Even to the emperor, he has always had a ghost in his heart. When the emperor was too much, he wanted to abolish it, and after the emperor ascended the throne, he still had a thief heart. It can be said that he has never truly supported the emperor.

Thinking of this, even I feel a little incredible, and a person like Wei can still hold a high position for so long, and he is indispensable in the emperor's court. The emperor is really too docile and kind, he doesn't miss the old hatred, only the old kindness. Just like what he said when he scolded Sima last time, "The patriarch of the Wei Three Dynasty is an important minister of the imperial court." When the first emperor was in power, he was called Wei Gong. "Just because I am grateful that he is the founding minister, no matter how arrogant he is and has different ambitions, he still keeps appointing him and putting up with him.

Hear the thunder in the silence.
