Chapter 149: The Most Motivated Person (Second Watch)
"Hua Yan left for Emperor Chu to pull out the poison, and after pulling out the poison, he will rely on himself to recuperate, and he will no longer pursue your identity."
"It's as simple as that?" Mu Jiu didn't believe it, when she hadn't seen the emperor? If he could trade at such a clear price, he would not be an emperor.
Xiao Junshu scratched her nose: "Of course not, Ben Hou also gave half of the tiger talisman." ”
Mu Jiu was so shocked that he forgot to put it in his mouth, and raised his hand to touch Xiao Junshu's forehead: "Are you stupid?" ”
That's a tiger talisman.
Xiao Junshu took her hand and took it down: "It will return to my hand sooner or later, but now it will become a life-urging charm in my hand." ”
Mu Jiu thought about it and understood.
Now Emperor Chu is not in good health, but the princes are getting bigger and bigger, with the growth of age is vigorous ambition, ready to move, at this time Dingbei Hou, the existence of heavy soldiers, is the most feared by Emperor Chu.
Let people save Emperor Chu's life, and then hand over the tiger talisman, be kind to Emperor Chu, and at the same time reduce their own threat, which is showing weakness to Emperor Chu.
But this is not a compromise, but Taoguang is obscure, retreating as advance, and when the threat brought by Xiao Junshu disappears, Emperor Chu's eyes will notice other people, such as those who poisoned him, such as the ambitious supporters behind the princes, and when Emperor Chu understands that he is surrounded by wolves, he will definitely take the initiative to send the military power to Xiao Junshu and let him clear the monarch's side.
So the reason why Xiao Junshu agreed to go to the prison was to wait for this opportunity to hand over the military power? Is this what he calls a good show?
Xiao Junshu put a plate of meat in it and tasted two bites, it was very fragrant, but it was not particularly spicy, it should have been deliberately reduced for him, it tasted good, turned his head to look at Mu Jiu who was still puzzled, and couldn't help but smile: "What do you think?" ”
"Nothing." She doesn't know what she thinks, this is Xiao Junshu's game, although she is in the game, she can't look at the chess game, she doesn't know everything, naturally there are some places that she can't figure out, but she can't figure out what she can't figure out, she doesn't know herself.
Xiao Junshu took the meat and put it in her bowl: "Don't you wonder who gave the medicine to Emperor Chu?" ”
Mu Jiu didn't think this was a problem: "The left and right are just the group of concubines in the harem, but it is unknown whether the queen doesn't want others to have children, or whether other concubines wantonly retaliate." ”
Don't think that it must be the queen's place to consolidate the crown prince, seriously, from the queen's point of view, there are already enemies such as the third prince, the fourth prince, and the twelfth prince, and how many concubines in the harem are reborn, in fact, there is not much difference, and sometimes the person who often looks at the most motivated to commit a crime is not that person.
Well, in this way, the one with the least motive to commit a crime......
Mu Jiu stuffed a chopstick meat into his mouth to calm down his surprise, and was surprised after chewing and swallowing: "It can't be Concubine Li, right?" ”
Concubine Li did not give birth to a prince, but she has been favored to this day, everyone thinks that her biggest regret is that she failed to give birth to a prince, but think about it from another angle, if she gave birth to a prince, then she can still get to her current position, and she can still be so favored by Emperor Chu? Can the Suguo Mansion still be trusted by Emperor Chu like this?
Giving up an opportunity to give birth to a prince in exchange for the honor of the concubine and the glory of a mansion is much more cost-effective than Wen Zhaoyi giving birth to six princes but being beheaded all over the house.
You must know that although Concubine Li is not the queen in the palace, her honor has always been above the queen, and she can be described as a real winner in the palace.
Others consolidate their position by giving birth to sons, but she does the opposite, precisely because she did not give birth to a son, so that she can always be honored.
Maybe at the beginning, Concubine Li's original intention of drugged was just not to conceive a child herself, and then after a long time, it became poisonous.
She drank the avoidance soup by herself, damaging her body, not to mention, if she was found out by Emperor Chu, she would definitely be blamed, and if she didn't do well, she would fall out of favor, but if Emperor Chu couldn't give birth, it would be no wonder to her.
Mu Jiu thought about it more and more, but she felt that she had a conspiracy theory, so she looked at Xiao Junshu and waited for him to answer.
"The Suguo Mansion has been standing for a hundred years, and they have their special way, and it is impossible for people to find out so easily about poisoning the emperor, but after so many years, there are still some clues, although only forty percent of them are sure, but someone will turn it into conclusive evidence."
So he made such a big turn, and in the end he had to deal with Concubine Li and Princess Ninghua?
Mu Jiu picked up the wine glass and didn't speak for a long time, she thought that she had been poured too much sugar by Xiao Junshu recently, and her brain was rusty, otherwise why did she think that Xiao Junshu couldn't understand these things?
In fact, it is not that Mu Jiu's IQ is off, but it depends on who is right.
For example, in the face of Xiao Junshu, the opponent in chess is equally powerful, and if she has a trick with Xiao Junshu, she will naturally cheer up and dig a pit for him, but in the face of Princess Ninghua and them, to put it mildly, Mu Jiu simply looks down on them.
A woman's methods are nothing more than jealousy, conspiracy to frame, compete for favor, sell well, and pretend to be pitiful, but this is never because of sincerity, but just to get benefits from the person in power, and it will be boring for her to see too much.
There used to be a battle between more than a dozen wives in the family, which was much more exciting than the palace fighting drama, and the rank was not ordinarily high, and her mother was also the best among them, if those means were put in this palace, Concubine Li would not necessarily be an opponent, so what was there to be surprised about?
It's just rare and weird.
Therefore, she didn't look at the methods of Princess Ninghua and Concubine Li at all, let alone hatred and revenge, as long as she didn't step on her bottom line, she could let her jump at will, and if she stepped on it, she would deal with it.
An inconsequential person who is not worthy of her care, let alone hate, especially not worthy of her being indebted to their lives.
But these are the things she doesn't care about, but Xiao Junshu cares about it very much, first against the Queen Mother and Princess Ninghua, and then directly calculates it, and the disaster leads to the east, if this matter is known by Emperor Chu, not only Concubine Li, but the entire Suguo Mansion will have to be finished.
And all the serial schemes were originally just because Princess Ninghua targeted her.
Mu Jiu looked at Xiao Junshu in a trance, and unconsciously asked what was in his heart: "Master Hou is doing this for me?" ”
"What do you think?" Xiao Junshu touched Mu Jiu's head, and stared at her quietly: "No matter what you think in your heart, here in Benhou, you can't run away, you are destined to be my person, so Benhou does not allow others to harm you and calculate you, if there is, that person can only be me." ”
Mu Jiu covered his pounding heart and frowned slightly.
Xiao Junshu's expression changed: "What's wrong?" Under the weather? ”
He leaned over, Mu Jiu lowered his head and leaned directly on his shoulder, his voice muffled: "Xiao Junshu, you hateful bastard." ”
Xiao Junshu: "......????? "What did he do?
