Tyrant Whitewashing Plan [Transmigration Book]

Unless you are a fool, no one would know that it was just a casual polite remark, not to mention that Jingyuan even said the polite remark in a weird way.

Ruan Jiaren and Tan Qingxuan ran all the way to Xiao Jining's Golden Dragon Palace obviously not for dinner, after hearing what Jingyuan said, she immediately said: "Xuan'er and I have already had dinner, this time it's just a little I want to talk to His Majesty about it, and then I left."

"So that's how it is." Jing Yuan pulled the corners of his lips and put down his chopsticks, "Then what do you want to say to His Majesty?"

Looking at this scene, Tan Qingxuan thought that Xiao Jining was the emperor, and Jing Yuan had already said so many things before he opened his mouth. It is no wonder that there are rumors outside the palace that the Jing family has the intention of rebelling against the emperor to order the world rumors.

Ruan Jiaren also noticed Jing Yuan's actions, but she didn't say anything, she just said to Xiao Jining: "Your Majesty, I found that Concubine Zhen seems to have some unusual connections with the previous dynasty."

There is no one in Xiao Jining's harem, only Ruan Jiaren and Tan Qingxuan are "evenly matched, each working in their own way", so almost all the power in the harem is in the hands of the two of them.And Ruan Jiaren and Tan Qingxuan can stay together with peace of mind because they rely on Xiao Jining to cover them. Xiao Jining's request to them is just to keep their own laws and manage the harem well. Ruan Jiaren and Tan Qingxuan should do their best.

So the two of them paid special attention to every move of the palace people, fearing that some people would start from the harem to cause trouble for Xiao Jining.

It was a coincidence that Ruan Jiaren and Tan Qingxuan originally wanted to monitor the Empress Dowager Chun, who made her do too many petty tricks, but after careful investigation, they found that the Concubine Zhen in Ganquan Palace - several concubines who were still alive by the late emperor One of the most gentle and kind-tempered concubines, his true nature does not seem to be like this.

But Concubine Zhen's status is too special. She is the birth mother of the Seventh Prince and the Seventh Prince was once the most preferred candidate for the heir apparent in Emperor Yunhong's heart. Even in the eyes of most people, Xiao Ji Ning's throne is not for the Seventh Prince. It was his turn to sit.

Therefore, Ruan Jiaren said the last sentence carefully, even with such a short seventeen words, she weighed it several times before she said it carefully.

These are only secondary, the most important reason is that Xiao Jining and the Seventh Prince are brothers and sisters, and they have a deep relationship.

Ruan Jiaren was afraid that after she told the truth, Xiao Jining would not believe her, or suspected that she was stirring up the brotherhood between him and the Seventh Prince, so she only said that the connection was "unusual". How unusual is it? The extent is not detailed.

"Concubine Zhen?" Xiao Jining paused for a moment, then frowned slightly, "She..."

Seeing Xiao Jining frowning, Tan Qingxuan became nervous together with Ruan Jiaren, but what Xiao Jining said next was: "I know about her situation."

Ruan Jiaren subconsciously said: "Your Majesty, you have long known that Concubine Zhen is—"

Before finishing speaking, Ruan Jiaren fell silent again.

Xiao Jining glanced at her, and replied truthfully: "I know that she has some relationship with the previous dynasty, but I don't know who she is involved with specifically."

It's not that he doesn't know, but that he doesn't know, which proves that Xiao Jining knows something in his heart.

"Since the emperor already knows, the concubine can rest assured." Ruan Jiaren breathed a sigh of relief seeing that Xiao Jining was not in the slightest, "Then Concubine Zhen, does the emperor need the concubine to do anything?"

Xiao Jining said: "Just pretend you haven't seen anything."

Ruan Jiaren immediately responded, "Yes, Your Majesty."

"The concubine and the empress just want to inform the emperor about this matter." Then Tan Qingxuan and Ruan Jiaren stood up at the same time, and saluted Xiao Jining, "Now that the matter has been made clear, the concubine will leave."

Xiao Jining did not keep them, and waved: "Go."

Ruan Jiaren and Tan Qingxuan bowed again after hearing the words, bowed their heads and left the main hall in a dignified manner, but when they were about to leave the main hall and stepped out of the palace gate, Ruan Jiaren unexpectedly reached out to Tan Qingxuan secretly, Tan Qingxuan didn't go to hold her, instead Ruan Jiaren patted the back of Ruan Jiaren's hand lightly with her hand, and Ruan Jiaren had no choice but to withdraw her hand again, honestly showing the dignity and majesty of a queen.

Xiao Jining watched them flirt, found it funny and couldn't help laughing, and even laughed out loud.

Hearing the sound, Jing Yuan immediately turned his eyes sideways, and looked at Xiao Jining indifferently.

Xiao Jining's eyes on Shang Jingyuan were like a quail being strangled by the neck, he suppressed the smile on his face, and said obediently: "Brother Jingyuan, are you starving? The food is getting cold, let's eat quickly, I Bring you some food—"

Xiao Jining flattered San Lian, and gave Jing Yuan the largest chicken leg on the dinner plate.

Jing Yuan looked down at the chicken legs in his bowl, and asked Xiao Jining with a half-smile: "Your Majesty just told the Queen that you have some clues about Concubine Zhen's collusion with the former court?"

"There are some." Xiao Jining did not dare to directly say that he has an emperor system, and he can see who is on the side of the concubine Zhen's camp in the court, so he is very clear.

He also joked with Jingyuan: "It can't be your father, hahaha."

Xiao Jining has looked at the power system, Jing Yue is indeed not in Concubine Zhen's power, but his ambition is too high, it doesn't matter which power camp he is in - the threat to him is the same.

But Xiao Jining did not expect Jing Yuan to be silent for a moment, and then suddenly said: "She is indeed connected with Jing Yue."

"Ahem——!" As soon as Jing Yuan finished speaking, Xiao Jining choked on the rice that had just entered his mouth.

He looked at Jing Yuan with no expression, but with a serious look on his face. He felt that Jing Yuan didn't look like he was joking, so he said, "But if that's the case, then why didn't he support Brother Seventh Emperor to become the throne before?"

Jing Yuan only said one sentence: "Jing Yue intends to be on the throne."

Concubine Zhen and Jingyue colluded with each other for no need to guess Xiao Jining knew the reason - she wanted to use Jingyue's power and the military power of the Jing family to let the Seventh Prince ascend the throne.

"Although you don't like this position, as long as you sit on it, the power you have will change." Jing Yuan slowly explained the reason for Xiao Jining, "And once such power is held by the Seventh Prince, Jing Yue will usurp the throne , it will not be an easy task.”

Oh, Xiao Jining understood Jing Yuan's implication. If Xiao Jining sat in this position, it would be much easier for others to usurp the throne. Didn't his fourth brother let him ascend the throne with this idea in mind?

However, Xiao Jining felt that there was something wrong with him and Jing Yuan talking about Jing Yue's unruly intentions here.

Xiao Jining pursed her lips: "Even the empress has discovered the clues of Concubine Zhen's side, so it can be seen that she has been acting a lot lately."

According to the custom of the Great Xiao, after the prince gets married, he will live in the prince's mansion. If he leaves the capital to go to the fiefdom, he can deliver his birth mother out of the palace to support and serve him;

The Seventh Prince and Eighth Prince were not fiefs, they didn't even get married, so Concubine Li and Concubine Zhen stayed in the palace.However, there are many eyeliners of various forces in the palace. Concubine Zhen must be cautious when contacting people outside the palace. Now even Ruan Jiaren, who has just entered the palace and only recently cultivated her own influence, has noticed that something is wrong. Presumably other people may also know something.

"It's not small." Jing Yuan nodded, his eyes dimmed, "It's the same with Jingyue."

"But even so, it's hard for me to do anything to Concubine Zhen." Xiao Jining said helplessly, "Not to mention that brother Seventh Emperor is out to inspect the state capitals for me at the moment, even if he is in the capital, if I treat Concubine Zhen What did the concubine do, how should I face him in the future?"

Xiao Jining was not afraid that Concubine Zhen would attack him, he was afraid that if Concubine Zhen really broke the skin with him, the relationship between him and the Seventh Prince would come to an end.

And Jing Yuan also felt that today, the matter between him and Jing Yue should be over.He looked down at Xiao Jining, and called out his name, "Ning Ning, if there is a day, you must have a choice between you and your Seventh Brother."

Concubine Zhen is also seeking the throne, Xiao Jining can only choose between preserving herself, or giving in and giving the throne to the Seventh Prince.

"I..." Xiao Jining frowned, hesitating and unable to make a decision.

"It doesn't matter, if you can't choose at that time, I will help you make a choice." Jing Yuan raised his hand, gently stroking Xiao Jining's cheek, "But you have to know, the only thing I care about is you."

The life and death of the Seventh Prince has nothing to do with me.

But Xiao Jining shook his head when he heard the words, looked at Jing Yuan and stared at him for a long time, then said firmly: "You don't have to choose for me, I have already thought about it, I will choose to protect myself."

Even though there will be no brotherhood between him and the Seventh Prince in the future.

This answer is the same answer as what choice Jingyuan will help him make at that time, but after Jingyuan listened to Xiao Jining's words, he suddenly asked him: "Why?"

"I thought it would be difficult for Ning Ning to make a decision on such a matter." Jing Yuan did not look back at Xiao Jining's eyes, but turned his head to look at other places, his eyes seemed to pass through the high and deep Looking at the palace wall, I don't know where the end is, "After all, even if you and the Seventh Prince are not from the same mother, they are still brothers connected by blood. Your relationship is still so good."

"It's quite difficult to choose." Xiao Jining replied seriously, "But if Concubine Zhen wants to help Seventh Brother take the throne, she will definitely not keep me, I think you should be very sad if something happens to me. "

Xiao Jining murmured in a low voice: "Compared to Brother Seventh Emperor, I love you a little more..."

Jing Yuan smiled: "So it was for me?"

"The important thing is not blood relationship, but emotion." Xiao Jining nodded, "Isn't that how I treat the queen mother? It's like you treat Jingyue."

Jing Yuan said again: "But the Seventh Prince doesn't know anything."

Xiao Jining felt that there was something wrong with the questions Jing Yuan asked him, and thought for a while and said: "Then let him know, I don't have to choose, it's the same to let him choose."

When it came to the end, Xiao Jining felt that his skin had really thickened, and he echoed what he said, nodding repeatedly: "Yes, why do I have to make a choice? Let Seventh Brother choose, I can't choose anyway, He chooses."

Whether to choose him as the emperor's younger brother or choose his biological mother, Princess Zhen, this problem is left to the Seventh Prince.

Jing Yuan was dumbfounded for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Bad thing."

"Well... I learned from Wen Yu." Xiao Jining started to blame, "You don't even know how Wen Yu praised you in his exam paper, wow, I'm tired of looking at it."

"That's why he has a thicker skin."

"Yes."
