Sometimes the arrangement of fate is always so ingenious, when he was at a loss, he heard the good news of Zhang Pengxi, and he was once again promoted to an official position, which was highly used.

Zhang Pengxi was ordered to send envoys to Russia with Suo Etu and Tong Guogang, and this matter was handled by Mingzhu before, and he has always maintained good relations with Russian envoys.

Although Mingzhu has never been with him, it has also made Suo Etu at a loss, and he can only ask for him.

Naturally, Suo Etu is not the pearl he went to see, but let Zhang Pengxi as a lobbyist. It's just that it didn't work, but it made Suo Etu restricted everywhere in doing things.

In this way, Suo Etu understands that Mingzhu has not only been quite powerful and influential in the court over the years, but also has some connections abroad.

In less than a month, Suo Etu and his party were forced to return to the capital before they could reach Russia.

This trip was fruitless, but it did not affect Suo Etu's recent attention to Xuan Ye. After returning to Beijing, he was assigned other things. In a short period of time, Suo Etu has almost regained his former majesty, and everyone wants to tie up his relationship.

Because of Suo Etu, Jing Hao was also fortunate to be in the palace several times by Xuan Ye, compared to the past few months, Jing Hao's grace is almost comparable to Zhang Jia Chuzhen.

There are more and more people going to Changchun Palace, and there are gradually more people who please Jinghao. Although it is not crowded with people, there is also an endless stream of people coming and going. There are people who please and there are people who give gifts, and everyone wants to be close to Jing Hao to ensure the glory of the future.

Because Jinghao and Zhang Jia Chuzhen are favored, the resentment that some people originally had against the only pet has gradually disappeared. Naturally, there are also people who are happy to see such a situation, so that Chunxi is no longer the sole favor, it is everyone's wish.

There are also rumors in the palace that after Zhaosheng's death, Chunxi's status in Xuanye's mind has gradually been banned, and sooner or later, Chunxi's scenery will no longer be there. The harem concubines have also rekindled hope. Dressed up more and more pretty, I just hope that Xuan Ye can look at himself twice, get pity, receive all the grace, and become the next Jinghao or Zhang Jia Chuzhen.

The Yikun Palace, which is adjacent to the Changchun Palace, is extraordinarily clean, sitting in the courtyard and drinking tea under the sun, with elegant movements and a calm demeanor.

Miyi and Mu Hui next to him are one on the left and one on the right, one is cleaning up the landscape painting that Chunxi has just finished, and the other is fiddling with the stove fire to facilitate warm tea.

She put down the teacup, reached out and took down a book on the table, turned the seventh page, and savored the mystery of the book. Occasionally, she can be heard reading out the beautifully worded sentences in the text and commenting on them.

"My sister is in such a good mood, she is so comfortable." When Yun Yue entered the door, she saw this scene, and the corners of her mouth naturally rose, outlining a smile.

Chunxi looked up and saw that Yunyue was dressed in Ayaluo, with exquisite styles and novel patterns, and couldn't help but say funny: "I am so idle, I am not as busy as my sister, and I chose such a good dress." ”

Yunyue looked down at what she was wearing, and then realized that the embroidery on it was extraordinary. I went out in a hurry, and let the waiter choose a random one to put on. At that time, I only thought that the pattern was good-looking, but now I am surprised that the embroidery is also very different.

Yunyue smiled bitterly: "Where is it, you know that I don't pay much attention to these things on weekdays." ”

"What kind of problem is my sister encountering?" Seeing Yunyue like this, Chunxi knew at a glance that she was not here to hang out in Yikun Palace.

"It's not a big problem, but I'm a little confused in my heart, and I want my sister to solve it for me." Yunyue said frankly: "You also know that the most popular person in the court recently is Suo Etu again." ”

"He has been an official in the court for many years, and he has also been in power, but now he is just back to the old days, which is not surprising." Chun Xi didn't care and said: "Isn't it normal for life to have ups and downs? ”

"That being said, I find this uncomfortable." Yun Yue said worriedly: "Because Suo Etu was reused, it also made Concubine Jing favored. In the past, there was a treasure that was often in one and shared your favor, but now there is another concubine. I'm afraid you haven't seen the emperor for several days, you don't care so much? ”

"How could it not be cared." Chun Xi said helplessly: "It's just that there is no way to change it." In fact, this is the case in the palace. In the past, there were just not so many entanglements of interests, and the emperor naturally loved me a little more, and came to Yikun Palace a few more times. Now that the doppelganger lacks skills, there are naturally fewer of them. Zhen is often favored, which is expected, and it is also our own will. As for Concubine Jing, it doesn't matter, how can her grace come today, and how will it disappear in the future. She is different from Zhen Changzai, Zhen Changzai is pleasing to herself and has won the emperor's favor. But Concubine Jing is only in order to appease Suo Etu's heart, so she will be better to her than others. It is not difficult for them to get such grace, but it is difficult to keep what they have now. ”

"My sister understands." Yunyue admired, and her thinking became more and more calm.

"How can you not understand? When I first entered the court, at that time, I may have been very concerned about whether others were favored, and whether someone had received the emperor's favor, which made the emperor snub me. Chunxi couldn't help laughing as she spoke: "Even, sometimes I complain, I feel uncomfortable, I cry, and I hurt." But now, I understand that I can't stay with the emperor like ordinary people. Interests are always at the forefront. As long as the person in the emperor's heart is still me, and I am still the most favored person in this Forbidden City, it is enough. No matter how much I suffer, it's just adding to my troubles. ”

Yun Yue understood Chunxi's heart, so she thought of another person, and continued to ask: "You are not worried about Concubine Jing being favored, so what about her?" ”

"She? Is my sister talking about the imperial concubine? Chunxi reacted and said with a smile: "She won't worry about Concubine Jing being favored." ”

"Why?" Honey on the side listened to it, and was very puzzled, and hurriedly asked: "Isn't the imperial concubine afraid that Concubine Jing will give birth to a little brother in the future, and her status will gradually improve, but she will be crushed and raise a tiger?" ”

Since she was not afraid that Zhen Chang would be favored, she arranged for Zhen Chang to sleep in the bed and be close to the emperor. Naturally, she was not afraid that Concubine Jing would also be favored by the emperor. Yun Yue replied: "It's just that Zhen Changzai's family is not good after all, and he is a palace maid, even if he is ranked as a concubine like Concubine De in the future, for the imperial concubine, he is not a person who can be an opponent." ”

"Yes, to become her opponent, the first thing is not whether she is favored or not, but whether she has the ability to win the back position." Chun Xi said through Yunyue's words: "Concubine De and Zhen Changzai are both from palace maids, and no matter how high they climb, they can only stoop below her. If you don't have a good family, you should never expect a posterior. But using them to win the emperor's heart and deal with his real enemies is also very convenient. Moreover, in the eyes of the imperial concubine, they are all dispensable. Therefore, whether she is favored or not does not affect her. As for Concubine Jing, although her family is good, she has a sister who is the deceased queen and a nephew who is the crown prince and the future heir. Even if Concubine Jing has a big advantage, the chance of ascending to the back position is too small. What's more, she can be ruthless, so that Concubine Hua has no possibility of getting pregnant, and Concubine Jing also has no, so what's the difficulty? Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if Concubine Jing is wary of her, she is really so lucky to be pregnant, and it is unknown whether she will give birth to a boy or a girl. is really born an elder brother, and it is so rugged on the road of growth, it is not certain whether he can grow up alive. ”

"It seems that as long as the candidate for the crown prince remains unchanged, whether Concubine Jing is favored or not, it will not affect the imperial concubine." Yun Yue suddenly figured it out, and the depression in her heart was untied. In fact, she has never figured out how deep the impact of Jing Hao is so good on others and for them.

Seeing that they were all silent, Mi Yi thought of someone and hurriedly said: "Niangniang, the slave maid listened to Sister Mu talk about it, Zhang Pengxi and Master Zhang have also been valued by the emperor recently, and they are also very close to Suo Etu. The relationship between Lord Zhang and Niangniang seems to be very good, if Lord Zhang can become the same person as Lord Mingzhu in the future, then it is not very beneficial for Niangniang? ”

"Lord Zhang's heart may not be towards us." Chun Xi shook his head, this plan didn't work. What's more, Zhang Pengxi is now only a fourth-grade official, how can he be compared with the pearl of a first-grade scholar. Even if Zhang Pengxi has that kind of ability, he will not be able to achieve Mingzhu's achievements for a while, and he will not be able to compete with Suo Etu in a fallacy, and it will be very good if he is not rectified behind Suo Etu.

"If my mother is in trouble, Master Zhang will definitely go all out." Mu Hui was also puzzled.

Yunyue understood very well, and explained for Chunxi: "Master Zhang is pure-minded and honest as an official. He won't be of use to us. What he is looking for has never been Chun'er, but the emperor. He is for the people's livelihood and loyal to the emperor. What does it have to do with us? If we are in trouble and need to get rid of our crimes, we can find him. He's a master at solving cases. ”

Chunxi also agreed with Yunyue's opinion, they all thought the same. Zhang Pengxi is destined to be not a person from them, so although he is good friends with Zhang Pengxi, he will never let Zhang Pengxi do anything in private.

"So, we have no one to use in the court?" Mu Hui sighed, feeling bitter in her heart.

"Not really." Chun Xi smiled slightly and said calmly: "Since there is nothing in the court that can help us, let's start from somewhere else." ”

"Sister, do you have an idea?" Seeing her like this, Yunyue was surprised and delighted in her heart.

Chunxi let Yunyue come over to her, leaned closer, and whispered her thoughts in her ear. After listening to this, Yunyue also felt that the method was feasible, and readily agreed.

"So, let's start with the first step." Chun Xi smiled and instructed Mu Hui: "Go and make arrangements, let Oro Dai and Yue Xi come to see the palace." ”

Mu Hui heard Chunxi's instructions, and soon understood what Chunxi wanted to do.
