Qin Xiang's mansion on the banquet guests, a lot of cloth children came to watch, watched a while of the guests like clouds, the traffic in front of the door is easy to disperse, is waiting for the noon to open the banquet and another round of artillery battles, the servants of the people carry out the happy money to throw, so rush up to fight for a buy sugar cake to satisfy the excitement of the mouth, how to wait for a long time, but see the traffic and continuous out, the audience is all rare, have seen so many family birthday banquets, have not seen such a rare thing.

In the attic of a wine shop next to Suzaku Street, a man in a green shirt looked at the archway where the Prime Minister's Mansion was located opposite, and kept driving out under the stunned gaze of the onlookers, and slightly curled the corners of his lips.

It was Yu Feng, the king of Chu.

The woman beside him naturally couldn't be someone else.

The door of the private room was suddenly pushed open, but instead of the running hall where food and drinks were served, the sky was clear.

Listen to his report: "The small inquiry is clear, the front yard of the Prime Minister's Mansion has not yet opened, Qin Xiangzheng is elegant and polite and dignified with the guests, listening to those pine cranes and Changchun, everything is going well, leisurely and complacent, first there is Hanlin resignation, and then even Wei Shangshu and others also found an excuse to leave, and it didn't take long for most of the people to leave, Qin Xiang almost didn't lift the table. ”

followed by a "crackling" list of names, all of whom resigned halfway.

Yi Jing was surprised: "I know that most of the Hanlin people are encouraged by you, and they are waiting to embarrass the Qin Mansion today, Wei Shiniang and them, how can even the Qingyunfang Chen family, Meng, He, Song, Xia, Jiang and other famous families also have their faces, these are not the families that have a lot of dealings with us, when it comes to the Jiang family, there is about Lu Jian and Lu Yushi, and I don't know the rest." ”

Today, the Jiang family, which is followed by Wei Shiniang's resignation, is Lu Jian's wife's family, Yu Feng had a life-saving grace for Lu Jian back then, and the Jiang family was originally a benevolent and righteous family, and this favor is reasonable.

The Chen family of Qingyunfang is not the same clan as the Queen Mother, and the two families have no relationship.

But Yijing then woke up: "Yes, Jiang's cousin Chen Yiren can have a handkerchief with my third aunt." ”

"These families should be your popularity." Yu Feng said firmly.

The beautiful scenery looks very different.

"Zhen Liuniang's mother was born in the Meng family, if you hadn't interceded with the Empress Dowager for Zhen Liuniang, she was afraid that she would have been executed in private." Yu Feng reminded.

According to this line of thought, Yi Jing understood why the rest of the families were "cheering", they all had branches and branches with several of her boudoir friends, such as the Xia family, which is Zhuo Nianyu's foreign family, although the power is not heavy at the moment, but it is a famous family of poetry and books, with these families taking the lead, it is no wonder that those watchers made a choice in an instant, and the Qin Xiang's birthday banquet became such a situation.

As he was talking, the door of the private room suddenly opened, but it was the lord of Pingle County who came in in a hurry, and the one she dragged was of course Wei Yuan.

"Ah Jing, in order to help you today, I missed a good meal and drink, this host, you husband and wife have to do a good job! It's a pity that you're not here today, our Shou Taifei, I just found out that she is so cute! Didn't you see Qin Ziruo's appearance......"

——

Miss Ziruo's current appearance is really sad and she can't bear to look at it directly.

The old princess also "hurt" her, and still let her share a ride, blaming herself and comforting along the way: "Alas, I have never been able to socialize, this time there is no Jing'er by my side to mention something, I am very worried, I just want to pull Concubine Shou together, I really don't know that she has resentment in her heart, she must be dissatisfied with Banniang, and she is angry with you, and she persuaded me not to fall into the trap on the way...... Of course I don't believe it, they don't know your strengths, but I know it, but the matter of the side concubine, in the end, did not get the permission of the Queen Mother, it was because of the old concubine's reminder that I endured it today, and if I said it on the spot, I really don't know what the trouble will be. ”

The old princess looked "happy", looking at Ziruo's eyes, she was helpless and sad, and she cried miserably.

"Today really made you feel wronged." The old princess wiped away her tears for Qin Ziruo with Jinpa, and vouched: "Shangyuan should have also listened to those untrue gossip, and there was a misunderstanding in my heart, but I have always been stupid, I am afraid that I can't convince it, I still have to convince the empress dowager, Shangyuan can only listen to her words, good boy, don't be sad, cry carefully, and wait for two days, I will hand over the sign to enter the palace, Jing'er's matter, thanks to the Qin family in front of the saint, can be calmed, I must ask for credit for you." ”

Qin Ziruo hurriedly choked up and said: "I'm afraid that if this matter is made today, gossip will also spread to the ears of the Empress Dowager, on the bright side of this matter, it is true that those folded imperial histories have been caught, but it's just that the cause of this incident is not in those imperial histories, but in the discussion in the market. ”

After today's pile, if Qin Zi can "make up for the loss", he is afraid that the old princess will say that she will miss her mouth, and then be exposed by the empress dowager, so she hurriedly advised: "This matter is in the past, and it will be unfavorable to the princess to mention it again, so it is useless for me to do anything, so don't break it down more, lest the empress dowager also misunderstand the Qin family." ”

The old princess shook her head again and again: "It's all because I'm quick to talk today, and I don't want the old lady to have such a deep grudge against the Qin family." ”

But he didn't say how to fight in front of the Queen Mother.

When the Empress Dowager heard that the old princess actually brought Qin Ziruo to attend, and said such a "cherishing and compassionate" words, she was so angry that she couldn't speak, until she heard the incident and knew that she was being reconciled by Concubine Shou and Pingle and many female dependents, so she sneered: "This is called self-destruction if you do too much injustice, and the eyes of the world are very bloody!" ”

After pondering for a while, she stroked her palm again, but knocked on Wei Zhao's head: "Your cousin-in-law, she is really a thoughtful person, she must have expected that the old princess would have soft ears, and she would fall for the bewitchment of the Qin family's mother and daughter, and did something ridiculous and generous, deliberately letting so many people dismantle the stage, but embarrassing the Qin family." ”

So he didn't wait for the old princess to hand over the sign to the palace, and the next day, the queen mother went first.

A rebuke.

The old princess put Qin Ziruo's advice behind her, and said heartily: "It is said that Ziruo is rebellious, in my opinion, she is indeed sincere to Feng'er, although Qin Xiang is hypocritical, there is also unspeakable suffering, who let Ziruo have a tendon at the beginning?" For the sake of the family, and the dignity of the queen, I had to remove her from the family, in the end, it was my own granddaughter, how could I be cold-hearted, Jing'er was taken captive, and there was a lot of uproar in the market, I also knew that it was not her fault, but I couldn't see Feng'er also taking responsibility, fortunately, Qin Xiang secretly turned around, suppressing most of the officials and imperial history did not add to the chaos, and Qin Xiang had no other meaning, that is, if he wanted to get a home, if he became Feng'er's side concubine, he would also have a name. ”

The Empress Dowager was puzzled by the clouds and mist of Concubine Shou in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and when she heard the old princess stab it directly, she almost fell into anger!

What a Qin family, this is seeing that the concubine has no hope, he started the abacus of the side concubine!

immediately heartbroken: "The second sister-in-law is really confused! Just listen to the nonsense of the Qin family, aren't all the officials in the book instructed by them? Why did you Dao Zhuojin lose his official position! Zhuo Jin is Qin Xiang's person! Anyone who knows this with a little discerning eyes knows it, so you hide it in the dark! I'll tell you the truth, Jing'er and Li, that is, if Qin Ziruo persuades later, I have a word first, and no one will be allowed to persecute this matter again, the Qin family wants to force the royal family to abolish the concubine, so that Qin Ziruo can replace him! It's a shame that they are talking nonsense with their eyes open, and they are still showing credit in front of you, and Tian is shameless to go home! ”

The old princess was dumbfounded.

The Empress Dowager sneered: "Why, the second sister-in-law can't even trust me, so she only listens to Qin Ziruo's tricks?" ”

The old princess wiped a cold sweat: "I can't, I just didn't think of ......"

"Yes, you don't care about this matter, after you go back, if the Qin family asks, don't say it in detail, tell her, I still have to think about this matter, and if I have a decision, I will edict her to speak."

So in this way, Qin Ziruo finally felt a little relieved, in her opinion, the Empress Dowager did not refute on the spot, this matter is a big success, Xu is Weiguo Mansion completely tore the skin with Qin Xiangfu this time, in the end it hurt the face of the Son of Heaven, the Empress Dowager was not happy, and intended to give the Su family a warning.

Hmph, grandfather's birthday banquet is piled up one by one, can she not know that Concubine Su is planning it after she comes back to her senses? But this time, it was destined to shoot the queen mother, which made the queen mother jealous.

The only apprehension is Yu Feng.

He didn't attend his grandfather's birthday banquet that day, as if he wanted to draw a line with the Qin family.

But at this point, there is only a desperate bet, if the next plan goes well, life and death are a matter of survival, and no one will just ignore the love of their children.

But I don't know how to plan that matter, it is better not to contact outsiders easily.

But once there is a result, the mother should inform you in time.

So Qin Ziruo entered the waiting mode with a heartbroken heart.

On the other hand, the Son of Heaven was furious when he heard that he "fully supported" the banquet of the Qin Prime Minister and ended it in a dismal manner.

After some intrigue and trickery by the emperor, the Son of Heaven said: "Although this matter is not conclusive, the key is to make the empress dowager have to make a trade-off, but on the surface, it is still necessary to do it to withstand scrutiny, otherwise the empress dowager is afraid that she will cover it up sloppily again, and she still needs a witness, and this person must be closely related to the Patriotic Mansion." ”

"Then Su Ming is ready-made? Didn't the saint also say that he was at odds with the eldest princess and the brothers of Wei Guogong? "The queen is supporting.

The Son of Heaven was impatient: "He is not suitable, once the world knows that he is a concubine, he is deeply jealous of the descendants of the Weiguo Mansion, and he is a man, how to testify on the spot, his wife cannot enter the palace without a fate." ”

The queen clapped her chest loudly: "This matter is on the concubine, who is the right candidate, the Huang family must be clear." ”

So the Huang family was edicted to enter the palace, and when he heard the queen's conspiracy, he was shocked: "Don't hide it from the mother, although the concubine has a suitable candidate in her mind, it is the concubine Sanniang, but she is not easy to convince, after all, ...... Although she has an old grudge with Wu Niang, if she wants to gain a foothold in her husband's family, she still has to rely on the Weiguo Mansion, even if this matter goes well, I am afraid that she will be hated by the eldest princess, San Niang is not a stupid person, and she will not be a fool of herself. ”

In fact, the Huang family is worried about themselves, if this thing can be done, of course it will be very happy, but once it is exposed, let the eldest princess know that she is the one who is making trouble, even if Yijing is a capital crime, it is impossible to escape the capital crime, but the Weiguo Mansion has not fallen, and her brother Huang Tao is not strong enough, how can she protect herself? Even Saburo will be affected.

The queen sneered: "You can't protect her, can't I still keep it?" Can't the Holy One keep it? Well, you don't have to meddle in this matter, only I will come forward to persuade you. ”

The Huang family let out a long breath and was ecstatic - Su Yijing's eye thorn, this time it can finally be uprooted, although it has no direct relationship with the achievement of San Lang's knighthood, it has also cleared a major obstacle, and more importantly, after this incident, he can finally gain the trust of the emperor and queen again.

Immediately after, the queen met with Li and Mrs. Qin.

So Mrs. Qin went to the Xianwang Mansion again, and learned that the Empress Dowager agreed to consider it, so she relieved the stuffiness accumulated in her chest, and said to Qin Ziruo: "Don't worry, the shame and humiliation that Concubine Su gave us is bound to be doubled, and the saint has a comprehensive plan, this time, I have to let Concubine Su taste what it means to be pointed at by a thousand husbands and be in a dead situation!" ”

But after Qin Ziruo heard that plan, he was not at ease: "I'm only worried about the King of Chu, but he knows the identity of Xiao Yan and his background with the eldest prince." ”

Mrs. Qin sneered: "So what, the saint has already taken this into account, the key is not in the motive, nor in the conclusive evidence of the crime, it is nothing more than a contest of trade-offs, as long as the empress dowager decides, Concubine Su is speechless, the mastermind of the matter between Xiao Yan and the eldest prince is the saint, how could the empress dowager make a royal scandal for a prince and princess?" The king of Chu will also weigh it, can't he be sentenced to death for the crime of complicity in the name of slander against the top for the sake of Concubine Su, a woman? ”

"In case the Empress Dowager ......"

"Even if there is this case, Ci'an Palace is completely against the saint, and it is bound to die and live, and it is not us who is responsible."

Qin Ziruo gritted his teeth: "I'm afraid that there will be a case to make Concubine Su well." ”

"That's only temporary, as long as the saint makes up his mind and doesn't let a harem maid interfere with the imperial power." Mrs. Qin was too deeply stimulated by the birthday banquet, and her whole person became hideous.

But Qin Ziruo's purpose was different, she said in a low voice: "We have to stay behind this matter, even if we can put Concubine Su to death, we have to let people carry this black cauldron in the end." ”

This is because, until this time, she was still obsessed with Yu Feng, and she tried her best to clear her name and fight for a chance for the two of them to work together in the future.
