"One thing, Second Miss, I found a strange thing, the prince now has a confidante named Lin Jiaoer, who is the daughter of the Ministry of Works, have you ever heard of it?" Xiao Rong Zheng Se asked.

"Well, I've heard some rumors about this, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong with this Lin Jiaoer? Ye Anran was suspicious.

"Well, after I looked at her carefully that day, I found that she looked very much like a person." Xiao Rong said word by word.

"Who?"

"Miss Zheng Yanru of the Zheng family." Xiao Rong replied calmly.

"Zheng Yanru? You mean...... I understand, it turns out that Xigong Jin really loves the Miss Zheng family in his heart, and it seems that my previous inference is not wrong. Ye Anran nodded thoughtfully.

"Second Miss, does this news help you?" Xiao Rong didn't understand.

"Well, it helps, now I know that Xigong Jin loves Zheng Yanru deeply, and I have to plan for the future situation, although Zheng Yanru is only a woman, but she is worth a lot after marrying the Zhao family, and now her husband Zhao Lengyun is a very outstanding general, and the emperor also appreciates it deeply, if there is a chance to recruit him to my banner, it will be like a tiger with wings." Ye Anran planned the way forward.

Xiao Rong suddenly spoke: "Second Miss, in this big plan of yours, will the prince be in danger?" ”

"Xiaorong, are you worried about Xigong Jin?" Ye Anran asked tentatively.

Xiao Rong lowered her head shyly and nodded, no matter whether the person Xigong Jin likes is her or not, she doesn't care, as long as Xigong Jin is safe, she will be satisfied, this is Xiao Rong's infatuation.

"Don't worry, now that he is your husband, I won't touch him, and he won't be in danger." Ye Anran made a solemn promise, and Xiao Rong was obviously relieved.

Later, they chatted a little more, and at noon, the emperor and Xigong Jin came over, and the four of them had lunch together.

Then Xiaorong and Xigong Jin returned to King Heng's Mansion together, and King Heng's wedding finally came to an end.

Tianxuan Palace

The Queen Mother leaned lazily on the concubine couch, looked at Guo Yucheng who was kneeling on the ground and said: "Yucheng, you are the cousin of the mourning family, so the mourning family will definitely not treat you badly, but you have been the prime minister for a few days, why don't you make a convincing big thing, now the emperor is fascinated by the little fox spirit of the Ye family, you are an important minister, but you are helpless, how can you explain to the mourning family?" ”

Guo Yucheng knelt on the ground, his body trembling slightly......

In fact, if it is about qualifications and ability, even if it is not his turn to be the prime minister, Guo Yucheng will not be able to queue up, but he is lucky, he is the cousin of the queen mother, the queen mother took advantage of Prime Minister Ning to make trouble, Prime Minister Lan Ning dismounted, and took the opportunity to promote him up, but this person is incompetent and talentless, after taking the position, not only is it difficult to convince people, but also makes the queen mother anxious, so I have to ask him to come to Tianxuan Palace to talk.

"The Queen Mother, it's not that the minister doesn't want to help, it's that the emperor is too stubborn, the minister has advised him many times, but the emperor ignores it and insists on going his own way, and the minister can't help it, on the contrary, the Queen Mother, you are the emperor's mother, the emperor is famous for his filial piety, your words, he will naturally listen, this matter is better to be persuaded slowly by the Queen Mother, how about it?" Although Guo Yucheng is difficult to achieve a big thing, this person is flamboyant, cunning and scheming, seeing that the Queen Mother wants to blame herself, she immediately helps herself to clear her name, and then throws the problem back to the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother sighed helplessly and said, "Do you think the mourning family doesn't want to?" But now the emperor can't even persuade the mourning family, otherwise he won't come to you, the mourning family doesn't care, in short, you don't have to find a way to help the emperor distract himself, you can't spoil that little vixen, otherwise, ...... The mourning family sees that you, the prime minister, are almost at the end of your life. ”

Seeing the Queen Mother's cruel words, Guo Yucheng's face immediately changed greatly: "The Queen Mother forgives her sins, please don't be angry, the old minister will do his best to help the emperor get rid of Ye Anran's confusion, and ask the Queen Mother to give the old minister a chance." ”

Seeing that if he doesn't act again, his black gauze hat will be difficult to protect, and he has finally achieved the position of prime minister, so naturally he can't let go easily, so Guo Yucheng made an oath here to change his normality.

"Well, then you can start doing it immediately, after this time the matter is completed, all the courtiers will definitely look at you with admiration, and they will not keep saying that you have become prime minister by relying on the nepotism of the mourning family." The Queen Mother's expression eased a lot.

"Yes, the old minister obeys." Guo Yucheng agreed to it, but in fact, he didn't have any score in his heart, and he didn't know how to get the emperor to get rid of Ye Anran.

After returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion

Guo Yucheng sighed all day long......

Mrs. Guo came over with a bowl of tonic soup: "Master, drink some soup to make up for your body, you have been looking very bad lately." ”

"Put it here, I don't have an appetite." Guo Yucheng frowned and said.

"Master, what's wrong, is there something forbidden in the court?" Mrs. Guo asked with concern.

"Well, today the Queen Mother came to me and gave me a task, if I can't complete this task, then ...... I can't keep it. Guo Yucheng said in a deep tone.

"What? The Queen Mother is going to remove your official position? Impossible, isn't the Queen Mother the master's cousin? Mrs. Guo was amazed.

"What's the use of cousin, the Queen Mother has always done what she says, and she does things resolutely, and the Queen Mother has really been angry with Ran Zhaoyi recently, and there is no way to do it, otherwise I don't think she will force me." Guo Yucheng analyzed.

"Is it because the emperor favors Zhaoyi?" For this matter, it seems that the people of the entire Bianjing City know about it.

"Well, exactly, the girl of the Ye family is really capable, and she has no way to find the emperor, and I don't know what kind of ecstasy she gave the emperor." Guo Yucheng said in wonder.

"Women, most of them rely on beauty and means, master, there is a way for the concubine, I don't know if it is feasible?" Mrs. Guo suddenly said with a flash of inspiration.

"Do you have a way? Then please come quickly, Madame. Guo Yucheng's eyes showed a little hope, as if he saw a glimmer of hope in despair.

"The reason why the emperor favors Ran Zhaoyi is nothing more than because of her beauty, if we can also find such a big beauty to serve the emperor in the palace, then the emperor is distracted, and he will not be so dedicated to a person, after all, a woman will always get tired of it for a long time." Mrs. Guo said slowly.

After hearing this, Guo Yucheng nodded: "Well, don't say it, this method is good, but the crux of the problem is where do we find such a beauty to enter the palace now?" ”

Guo Yucheng also makes sense to say this, the daughters and celebrities in Bianjing City, the married people, the people who enter the palace, and the unsuccessful ones, there is no suitable candidate at all, let alone hope to defeat Ye Anran.

Mrs. Guo suddenly spoke: "Master, do you remember that the concubine has a niece in Hangzhou?" ”

"Madam, are you talking about the Lu'er of the Su family in Hangzhou? Is that the daughter of your fourth brother? Guo Yucheng vaguely remembered that his wife's mother's family had an elder brother who gave birth to a beautiful daughter, but he wasn't sure which one it was?
