Chapter 442: Fair Exchange

After a moment, Shen Bilan regained her composure and asked cautiously, "Concubine Xi, ...... Want to see me, what's the matter? ”

"Of course, what do you think?" Xi Guiren replied sharply.

"Oh, well, I didn't talk to me much, so I didn't know you had something to do with me." Shen Bilan spoke extremely carefully, she had already felt unprecedented pressure and powerful aura from Xi Guiren.

"You like Jue very much?" Xi Guiren asked straight to the point.

Suddenly, Shen Bilan's cheeks turned crimson and nodded: "Well, I have known Jue for many years. ”

"I've heard about your affairs, and the palace has heard about you, and I have long wanted you to introduce you to the palace, but the Empress Dowager He is staring too closely and doesn't dare to act rashly." Xi Guiren stared at Shen Bilan and said word by word.

"It is Lan'er's blessing to be appreciated by Concubine Xi." Shen Bilan is very good at pleasing her elders, and as soon as she heard that the person in front of her was the biological mother of Xigong Jue, she immediately began to flatter.

"Well, Lan'er, you don't have to be too polite, although we are meeting for the first time, but this palace is no stranger to you, you don't have to be so polite in the future, I came to you today, it's not a big deal, I just want to catch up with you, you don't have to be nervous." Seeing that Shen Bilan couldn't let go of it, Xi Guiren comforted her.

"Yes, Lan'er obeys." There are not many people who can make the dignified queen mother nervous like this, Empress Dowager He is the first, and Xi Guiren is definitely the second.

These are also the only two women in this world that Shen Bilan has scruples......

Because in the eyes of these seniors, her methods are all small skills of carving insects, which are not worth mentioning......

Subsequently, the Xi nobles told them exactly why they left the palace and why they refused to show up after so many years of seclusion.

Shen Bilan admires it very much, a woman can endure for 20 years for the sake of her son's great cause, and she can be regarded as a heroine among women.

"Concubine Niangniang, when the first emperor died of illness, why didn't you come forward to explain, maybe in that case, the person who ascended the throne would be the lord and not the current emperor." Shen Bilan asked.

"The palace was not completely sure at that time, during the serious illness of the first emperor, we never met, one is because the Empress Dowager He is full of eyeliner in the palace, and the palace has no way to enter the palace, and the other is that the Empress Dowager He colluded with the Demon Sect, causing blood and rain on the rivers and lakes, confusing the eyes of the world, and then taking advantage of the chaos to assist her son to ascend the throne, at that time, if the palace came forward, I am afraid it would be difficult to change the situation at that time, if it is not good, it will be put to death by her, the palace is not afraid, and she has been fighting for so many years, and she has long been ready to lose, But Jue couldn't afford to lose. Xi Guiren explained.

"What the concubine said is true." Shen Bilan bowed her head and said.

"Lan'er, ...... in the future The harem will be handed over to you, I have heard what the lord said, you have chosen to help him, you are a good boy, this palace promises, after the lord ascends the throne, he will not treat you badly, the queen's position...... You have to be. Xi Guiren said categorically.

"This ...... Concubine Niangniang, you may be mistaken, I'm not here for this helper, you know, I'm also the queen now, if it's just for the throne, there's no need to take this risk, right? Shen Bilan smiled embarrassedly.

"This palace understands, you can rest assured, your sincerity to the lord, this palace can see it clearly, once it is done, you are still the queen, so it is decided." Xi Guiren affectionately took Shen Bilan's hand and said.

"Thank you for your love." It can be seen that the noble Xi likes himself very much, and Shen Bilan is a little complacent.

Then, she suddenly thought of something and asked, "Concubine Niangniang, after the lord ascends the throne, where is my turn?" Jue now has a wife who is in his original match. ”

"Do you mean that girl from the Ye family?" Xi Guiren asked coldly.

"Exactly."

"Hehe, she's nothing, at most it's a stumbling block, if she is obedient and obedient, after the knighthood becomes a great cause, maybe she can still give her a seat and be a concubine, if she gets in the way, then ...... Hongu will kill her at any time. Xi Guiren said slowly.

Looking at the cold light in the eyes of the Xi nobleman, Shen Bilan only felt shuddering, she had long heard that the Xi nobleman was born in a martial arts family and had a unique skill, it seems that this is true, and Xigong Jue seems to be obedient to his mother's words, it seems that she should not offend this old lady.

"Ye Anran is not terrible, but she has a sister who is more difficult to deal with, the concubine should know Ye Zhaoyi, right? She is now pregnant with Liujia, has been favored by the queen mother, has received the attention of the emperor, and now she is calling for wind and rain in the harem, once she gives birth to the prince, the momentum will increase greatly, and at that time, I am afraid it will not be easy to eradicate. Shen Bilan said exaggeratedly.

"Well, this palace has heard a little, and knows that Ye Zhaoyi and Jue's princess are biological sisters, but don't say that they are sisters, even if they are kissed, once they hinder Jue's great cause, they will all be killed, this matter, this palace will discuss with Jue when he turns around, but the affairs of the harem will be handed over to you, now the situation in Bianjing is tense, we don't dare to act rashly, and we still need your close cooperation." Xi Guiren patted Shen Bilan's shoulder and said thoughtfully.

"Yes, Lan'er will fully cooperate with the concubine, as long as Jue can get what he wants, I, Shen Bilan, will definitely go to the soup and fight the fire." In front of the Xi Guiren, Shen Bilan showed her determination, which was very simple, because the Xi Guiren had already promised what she wanted.

In other words, it's just a fair exchange...... Take advantage of each other.

"Good boy, you are so affectionate and righteous, no wonder Jue likes you so much, and Bengong also likes it, in the future...... We are a family, and the affairs of the palace will be handed over to you, but you have to be careful of the old fox of the Empress Dowager He, she is not so easy to fool. Xi Guiren reminded.

"Yes, thank you for the teachings of the concubine, Lan'er understands." In front of the Xi nobles, Shen Bilan always behaved, put away her mercenary face, and desperately played a good daughter-in-law.

It was a very pleasant conversation, because they all took what they wanted......

Shen Bilan then returned to the palace in a pretty manner, and since then, she has always passed on the words with the Xi nobles through some detailed works, and told the Xi nobles every move in the palace without reservation.

It's also a seamless fit......

Inside the Imperial Study

The emperor and the wind are playing chess......

"Hurricane, your chess skills seem to be getting worse and worse." The emperor teased.

"It's not that the emperor, your subordinates are always running around, and you don't have time to hone your chess skills." Blast grumbled.

"Then you're complaining that I'm deliberately trying to embarrass you?" The emperor raised his head and smiled.

"What a feeling, the master wants the slave to die, and the slave does not dare not die." The wind squirmed.

"Will ...... Army. "The emperor dropped a horse and put the handsome of the wind to death.

"Oops, I'm going to lose again, what can I do? Your Majesty, your chess skills are really getting more and more ruthless, and you have put your subordinates to death in just a few strokes. The wind scratched his ears and cheeks.

"Not necessarily, Hurricane, you can choose to abandon the car to protect the handsome." The emperor reminded with a smile.
