The two of them had known about this for a long time, but now they had to play a role.

Xiao Ji raised her eyebrows slightly, and there was a little more puzzlement in her eyes, "What does the queen ......mean?"

"Why should this palace listen to his orders?" The queen snorted coldly, and then spoke, "This palace is the master of these six palaces, and everything in the harem should be arranged by this palace, why should he, an outsider, come over and point fingers?" He took the noble concubine under the knife, but that didn't deter the palace at all. ”

After that, the queen looked at Cheng Shuiyao and Xiao Ji, "You are all smart people, you know what the prime minister is going to do, he wants to make this country change hands, but this palace will not follow his wishes, if you are willing to join forces with this palace, this palace will naturally cover you." ”

"Does the queen think highly of us?" Xiao Ji pretended to be a pig and ate a tiger as always, deliberately put on a puzzled look at the moment, and looked at the queen with a frown.

"General Xiao still wants to go around in circles with the palace at this time?" The queen smiled slightly, and then spoke, "Why did you come in a hurry from the border, and what did you do after you came, this palace knows no less than others, and the cooperation of the palace at all has benefits and no disadvantages, you should think about it." ”

After that, the queen mother turned her head to look at Mu Wanning, who was slumped to the ground, and her eyebrows were dyed with a little soft color, "This palace knows that you are wronged, you can rest assured, after you leave, this palace will take good care of your family, you can leave with confidence." ”

"Thank you Queen Mother," a wry smile appeared on Mu Wanning's face, and then pointed to the door, "Queen Mother, let's go, it can be regarded as leaving the last dignity for the concubine." ”

The five fingers fisted hard, and the queen closed her eyes, got up and took a step away.

Cheng Shuiyao and Xiao Ji also stayed for a short time and walked outside the door.

At the moment when they left the door, a eunuch holding a white silk hurriedly passed by them.

Mu Wanning had no scruples at all, and directly wrapped the white silk around her neck.

"Let's go," the eunuch sighed, found a white cloth to cover the person, and then hurriedly pulled it away.

Back at the banquet, everyone had no intention of moving on.

The queen was in a bad mood, so she directly disbanded the banquet and let everyone go back to have a good rest.

"Your concubine finally became a victim of this battle for power and profit," Cheng Shuiyao sat in the carriage with a little emotion in her tone, "Speaking of which, what's wrong with your concubine?" ”

"From the day she entered the palace, her fate has been decided," Xiao Ji shook her head, "but fortunately, she died happily, unlike others, who died after repeated torture." ”

The time when you will not die is the most devastating and maddening.

Cheng Shuiyao was heavy and didn't want to say anything, so she leaned against the wall of the car and closed her eyes.

In her sleep, Shira and blood alternately appear, and eventually become terrifying.

"Ahh Cheng Shuiyao opened her eyes suddenly, only to find that the carriage had arrived at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"But you have a nightmare?" Xiao Ji wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and gently patted her back.

"Maybe the death of your concubine has shocked me too much, right?" Cheng Shuiyao closed her eyes and calmed down a little before slowly speaking.

"Although I shouldn't tell you, I still want to tell you in advance, so that you can be prepared," Xiao Ji held Cheng Shuiyao's shoulder and said calmly, "Since we have returned to Zengcheng, there will be no shortage of this kind of thing in the next few days, you have to adapt as soon as possible." ”

Cheng Shuiyao was silent for a while when she heard this, and then slowly spoke, "I will." ”

Xiao Ji knew that she needed time, so he didn't force her, and took her hand and entered the General's Mansion.

Cheng Shuiyao asked everyone to step back and stayed in the room alone for an afternoon.

When she went out, her whole expression changed.

"Madam," Moqin stood in the doorway, watching her come out, with a little relief in her eyes.

"If you want to wear its crown, you must bear its weight," Cheng Shuiyao patted Moqin's hand and smiled at her, "I know my own identity, and I also recognize what this identity will bring me." ”

"The master said that if the lady figured it out, he would ask the lady to find him." Mo Qin smiled slightly, and then pointed in the direction of the study.

Cheng Shuiyao glanced in the direction she was pointing, then nodded slightly and walked forward.

In the study, Xiao Ji sat alone at the table, obviously waiting for something.

The door was knocked gently, Xiao Ji opened his eyes slightly, and his eyes were a little more relaxed.

Stepping to open the door, Xiao Ji looked at Cheng Shuiyao outside the door, reached out and rubbed her hair.

"What did you call me for?" Cheng Shuiyao smiled and spoke, with a little more exploration in her eyes.

"There's something I want to show you," Xiao Ji took the initiative to take her hand, cautiously closed the door, and then lightly touched an antique on the bookshelf.

The sound of staggered gears sounded, and the originally intact bookshelves suddenly split from the middle to the sides, revealing the secret room inside.

Cheng Shuiyao raised her eyebrows slightly, but she was not too shocked.

"Come in with me." Xiao Ji opened his mouth to say a word, and then pulled Cheng Shuiyao into the secret room.

The secret room was full of shelves, and there were piles of scrolls on the shelves, and I don't know what they were used for.

"This bookshelf is the background of each person's life experience, that bookshelf is the rumors Pepsi, and the ...... in front" Xiao Ji introduced one bookcase after another, without the slightest impatience.

"Wait a minute, you show me what this is......" Cheng Shuiyao was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly stopped him, "You want me to know these things?" ”

"Well," Xiao Ji bowed his head and agreed with Cheng Shuiyao's guess, "There are some things that I may not be able to come up with the best ideas myself, if you know more about these, you can also help me come up with ideas when necessary." ”

"Will you trust me too much?" Cheng Shuiyao still felt a little incredible, Xiao Ji has always been rigorous in doing things, and he almost doesn't trust a person so much.

"You're my lady, I don't believe who you believe?" Xiao Ji asked with a smile and patted Cheng Shuiyao's hand to make her feel more at ease, "Don't worry, I won't be tired of you, I just want you to familiarize yourself with various things here, so that if there is an emergency, you can also solve it yourself." ”

"Okay," Cheng Shuiyao saw that Xiao Ji believed in herself so much, and didn't shirk anything, and began to look through the bookshelves.

I really don't know if I don't see it, and I'm shocked when I see it!

The files on these shelves cover the events that the entire country has experienced from the founding of the country to the present day, and they are more detailed than the history of the country.

"Where did you find so many dossiers?" Cheng Shuiyao had some doubts in her heart, and turned her head to look at Xiao Ji.

It's a big project, and it's not something that can be done overnight.

"Starting from my Xiao family as an official." Xiao Ji raised his eyebrows, and then slowly explained.
