The charming empress is too good at fishing, and the ruthless emperor has fallen

When Lu Zan said that he would give her the title "Yuan", Jing Shu heard Wang Zhong being shocked at first, and then talking about the recent melon in the same tone.

It is related to the situation between North Korea and China.

"Since Concubine Xie returned to the palace, Prime Minister Xie has roped in some courtiers, combined with the influence of the two great families of Xie and Cui among the literati, and submitted a memorial to ask the Holy One to appoint the eldest prince as the crown prince.

"But the problem is, the Holy Emperor has only ascended the throne for less than half a year, how can there be any reason to appoint a prince at this time?

"Xie Xiang's faction is so aggressive, the Holy Spirit is naturally angry.

"The Holy One was able to successfully ascend the throne because of the great efforts of the Xie Xiang faction. Nowadays, part of the power of the government is in the hands of the Prime Minister. It is difficult for the Holy One to refute directly.

"But now that Concubine Xie is making such a fuss, things have changed.

"Concubine Xie has behaved inappropriately in front of the emperor. She is so treasonous and disrespectful to question and rebuke His Majesty. On the other hand, how can she teach the eldest prince well like this? How can the eldest prince be worthy of his great responsibility and be appointed as the crown prince? Your Majesty. Then you can thank the imperial concubine for her fault and suppress all those memorials.

“I have to say that Concubine Xie’s move really did a great favor to the Holy One.

"Like what she did today, could it be that she knew the situation in the previous dynasty and did it deliberately?

"If that's the case, how could she really fall out of favor? I'm afraid that the Holy One will still praise her for her progress and retreat in his heart, and then look for opportunities to make up for it by giving her other awards in the future...

"As for Jing... no, Yuan Gui, I'm afraid she is just a pawn in the chess game of the Holy Emperor."

To be honest, when Jing Shu first heard this about the previous dynasty, she felt a little uncomfortable.

No one likes to be used as a pawn.

But she figured it out quickly.

At least those concubines who were bitter about her were right when they said, "How can you serve someone with sex for a long time?"

Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger.

Only by becoming a useful chess piece in the emperor's hands can she survive.

And on this road of survival, we must work hard to prevent ourselves from becoming a discarded child in the future.

Although Jingshu wanted to compete for favor before, he never considered the relationship between the harem and the previous dynasty.

Now it seems that only by taking a longer view and seeing clearly the situation of the previous dynasty can we better guess Lu Zan's thoughts and make a perfect chess piece.

After all, being a favored concubine, even if it is a false favor, is better than not being favored and being bullied like before.

When Jing Shu returned to Yicui Palace, news of her promotion had also arrived.

As soon as I sat down, people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came again.

Only Eunuch Chen came back this time.

"I'm here to see you, your concubine. Congratulations to your concubine!" As soon as the others arrived, they started to speak festive words.

"Eunuch Chen, please get up quickly. I wonder if you are here today?" Jing Shu accepted his congratulations and asked with a smile.

"That's it. The prince sent someone to convey the Holy Spirit's decree to the slave, saying that a eunuch in the palace of the queen had betrayed the queen and had been dragged down to death with a cane. Now that there is one less person, he asked the slave to pick a few loyal and smart people to give to the queen. Come here, please choose another one." Mr. Chen said.

"That's it. Where is he? Bring him here." Jing Shu nodded.

Soon, four or five young eunuchs were sent over.

Jing Shu glanced at them one by one and quickly selected a fair-skinned young eunuch who looked to be only fourteen or fifteen years old.

After Fuyun's incident, she realized that no matter how carefully she took precautions, she would never be able to prevent him.

So she simply picked the one she liked a lot, and specifically pointed him out to follow Chen Xiao from now on, just to relieve her boredom.

When the little eunuch saw that he was so important as soon as he came, he smiled happily and knelt down to thank him.

Jingshu waved her hand and told him to go down.

"Why is Eunuch Chen here today? Where is Eunuch Yan?" At this time, seeing Eunuch Chen not leaving yet, Jing Shu asked with a smile.

He asked this question, but actually he wanted to hear what Eunuch Chen was thinking about Eunuch Yan.

After all, that's the kind of relationship they have.

Jingshu was also in a rather depressed mood today and wanted to have more fun for herself.

"My foster father has other errands, so he didn't come here in person. He sent a servant to wait on the queen." Eunuch Chen said sweetly.

He smiled happily, but in his heart he said sourly: "My foster father is really an old and dishonest man. He is quite old, and he was seduced by a male fox. He didn't ask me to go to his house for several days." I'm waiting here... I heard that this male fox is from the Cui family. Because he offended his mistress, he was sent to the palace to be humiliated, purified and became a eunuch. This was ordered by the imperial concubine herself, so her adoptive father should take care of her. .

"That's good. I'll take care of you directly on the bed..."

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Jing Shu was originally drinking tea and eating melon, but when she heard this, she was caught off guard again and almost choked herself with a mouthful of water!

"Oh, my dear, are you okay?" Eunuch Chen didn't know that Jing Shu overheard what was in his heart, and he quickly looked concerned and was in a hurry.

"Ahem, I'm fine." Jing Shu waved her hand, wiped the corners of her lips with a handkerchief, coughed twice more, and that was all.

She glanced at Eunuch Chen and secretly thought that she had a short memory and had forgotten how good the eating and drinking men and women in the palace were.

However, Eunuch Chen did reveal a piece of information to her.

She could almost conclude that Eunuch Yan must be Concubine Xie's man.

Otherwise, Ms. Cui would not send her family members to Eunuch Yan.

This can also explain why, among the group of minions that Eunuch Yan sent to him last time, two of them were spy agents installed by Concubine Xie.

She was a little curious.

Who are the people from the Cui family who were sent to the palace to purify themselves and become eunuchs? How did you offend the mistress of the Cui family?

They are all from the same family, yet they do not hesitate to use this method...

Aren't you afraid of being laughed at if the news spreads?

Or is it that the Mistress of the Cui family is sure that this matter will not be spread?

"Eunuch Yan is really a busy man. If Eunuch Chen follows him, he will definitely have a bright future." At this time, Jingshu suppressed her thoughts, smiled and asked Xiu Qing to get the reward for Eunuch Chen, and sent him away.

Eunuch Chen left with great gratitude.

However, as soon as Eunuch Chen left, the people in front of him sent three boxes of Ningzhi Cream.

After the people in front of the emperor were sent away, Jingshu finally became pure again.

She slumped on the couch rather weakly, staring at one place with blank eyes.

"Your Majesty, what happened today makes me feel a little uneasy. Tell me, Concubine Xie questioned Your Majesty like that, but His Majesty just punished her with a grounding? Also, Concubine Xie also beat Your Majesty. Your Majesty treated Concubine Xie like this. , isn’t it a little biased?”

At this time, Xiu Qing finally had a chance to talk to Jing Shu.

She took the congealing ointment in her hand and planned to apply it to Jingshu.

Seeing this, Jing Shu also remembered that her face was still painful and swollen.

"It doesn't matter if Your Majesty is partial. After all, this slap will be doubled to Concubine Xie sooner or later." She was heard to say softly.

Xiu Qing bit her lip distressedly and carefully applied the medicine on her.

Jing Shu, on the other hand, was distracted by another secret that Concubine Xie accidentally revealed while in Kunning Palace.
