In charge

Bai Jin lay prone in the dungeon, unbound.It's just that he didn't move, curled up, unable to see whether he was dead or alive.

Shu Yunci looked at Jiang Fengmin, and Jiang Fengmin said: "Warrior skills are abolished, and the root is injured. The blood silkworm came to see him and said he won't live long." Don't look at Jiang Fengmin talking in front of Shu Yunci all day long. , Jiang Fengmin is not ordinary cold.

"Wake him up, I want to ask questions." Jiang Fengmin went up and kicked him, and Bai Jin shuddered in pain, and slowly sat up.

"Why do you want to help the queen? What purpose do you need to achieve through the queen?" Jiang Fengmin moved a chair, and Shu Yunci sat down and asked.

Bai Jin slowly raised his head that was bruised and swollen, Shu Yunci looked up at Jiang Fengmin who was standing beside him, Jiang Fengmin scratched his head, "Then he always runs away, I'll beat him until he won't run away. "

"Well done." Shu Yunci pulled her hand in satisfaction as a reward.

At this time, even Bai Jin saw that there was a big tail behind Jiang Fengmin swaying triumphantly.

"I have no purpose. The Queen asked me to do everything. She wants to harm you and Zhong Zhaoyuan, and I'm just making an idea for her." Bai Jin said with blood dripping from his mouth.

Shu Yunci looked at Jiang Fengmin again, and Jiang Fengmin continued to scratch his head, "His martial arts are weird, I'm a little harder. If I didn't think you wanted to ask questions, it would be easier to kill him directly."

Shu Yunci didn't speak, and continued to hold hands.The big tail behind Jiang Fengmin continued to shake and shake.

Bai Jin, who was shown his loving face, felt unreal. Aren't these two women both?Why does it look so wrong?

"Bai Jin, you'd better answer honestly when this princess asks you. This princess has always been impatient. Although you won't live long, you won't die right away. You shouldn't want to spend the time before you die. It must be too difficult."

Bai Jin was still talking nonsense, obviously not wanting to tell the truth.

Jiang Fengmin's anger was aroused, and he rolled up his arms and sleeves and was about to hit someone, but was held back by Shu Yunci. "That's his purpose, let you give him a good time."

"Then what should we do?" Jiang Fengmin asked.

Shu Yunci sneered, "Call Xuecan and bring her gadgets."

After a while, Xue Canxing hurried over with a few boxes.Shu Yunci told her not to play people to death until she asked the truth, and then went out with Jiang Fengmin.

When the two returned to the house, Shu Yunci ordered Jiang Fengmin to go to bed immediately.With her here, how could Jiang Fengmin be willing to sleep?There was no way, Shu Yunci knew she was playing a scoundrel, so he had no choice but to take off his coat and lie on the bed with her.

Holding the person in his arms, Jiang Fengmin was finally satisfied and fell asleep not long after.

Shu Yunci leaned on her arm, stretched out his hand to touch Jiang Fengmin's cheek, and his heart became soft.This fool worked so hard for the person he wanted, and he really put himself on the top of his heart and pampered him.She kissed Jiang Fengmin's lips, and closed her eyes to rest.

Before lighting the lamp, the blood silkworm knocked on the door.Shu Yunci, who had been resting with his eyes closed all this time, was about to get up when he realized that Jiang Fengmin was also awake.

"I'll just go and have a look, you can continue to sleep." Shu Yunci's gentle look made Jiang Fengmin look at her in a daze.

This made Shu Yunci laugh. "Go to bed first, I'll be back with you later."

Jiang Fengmin nodded while biting the corner of the quilt, and immediately closed his eyes, indicating that I had fallen asleep.

When Shu Yunci went out, he was still excited when he saw the blood silkworm. "Princess, go ask him now, and make sure he tells the truth."

The two entered the dungeon, Bai Jin was still the same, but kept twitching, not much, but it never stopped.

"How could he do this?"

"A Gu worm entered his brain." Blood Silkworm couldn't hide his excitement in his tone.She watched the Gu worms raised in "Ten Thousand Gu Records", but never had the chance to experiment.It was rare to meet a living person this time, and she had a great time.

Shu Yunci ignored the excited blood silkworm, and said to Bai Jin: "Tell me, I won't ask any more, I will tell you everything you know."

speak out. "

Bai Jin really vomited everything he knew.Shu Yunci was worried, so he asked him to repeat it twice to make sure that the information was consistent, so he believed it.

"I'll let you play with it, remember to dispose of it later."

When she got out of the dungeon, she thought about it, and went to the front yard to have someone make food and bring it over.She went back to Jiang Fengmin's room and saw that Jiang Fengmin was still asleep, but upon closer inspection, her eyelids were still moving slightly, obviously pretending to be asleep.

"Do you really think you're made of iron?" Shu Yunci came over and pinched her face, pulling her face from side to side.

"Hey! Don't talk!" Jiang Fengmin hurriedly saved his face. "If you tear it apart, how can I enter the palace?"

Shu Yunci was amused by her, "I said that I will be responsible for you, and I will want you no matter what happens to you."

Jiang Fengmin smiled, "Then I will wait for His Majesty's blessing."

This is a joke, both of them know it.But what if it's not a joke?Shu Yunci leaned against the bedpost, "Let me see your sincerity."

Jiang Fengmin actually blushed.Oops!It's not easy for Yunci to tease her!

But don't think that Jiang Fengmin will shrink back in this way, the notorious thick-skinned is not for nothing.She leaned over and whispered in Shu Yunci's ear: "Are you sure you don't want to do it yourself? It feels better."

Shu Yunci turned her head to avoid Jiang Fengmin's hot air blowing in her ears. "Don't make trouble, and make each other uncomfortable after a while, why bother?"

Yes, why bother?Jiang Fengmin could only sigh.Obviously the two have feelings for each other, but they don't know why they insist on not crossing the last line.

Meals are delivered quickly from the front yard.Shu Yunci had dinner with Jiang Fengmin.After drinking a cup of tea, Shu Yunci was going back to the palace.

"I can't sleep at night without you." Jiang Fengmin said pitifully.

Shu Yunci stared at the held hand until Jiang Fengmin let go of it. "Unless there are special circumstances, I can't stay out of the palace at night." This is a palace rule that a princess must abide by, although she has broken it many times.

She got up and walked to the door, and when she turned her head, she saw Jiang Fengmin still looking at her pitifully like a puppy.The redness in the eyes was less, but it was still clear.

"Although I have to go back to the palace, no one cares where you sleep, right?" Shu Yunci scolded herself while talking, why are you soft-hearted?Why bother with this wooden fish brain?

Having said all this, Jiang Fengmin would be a fool if he still didn't understand.She immediately got up and put on her black clothes, and happily followed Shu Yunci out.

Si Ping shook her head when she saw that she was alone when she went out, and there were two of them when she came back.My master indulged Princess Jingwu so much, this bottom line can't be kept for long.

After Jiang Fengmin took a bath and changed clothes, he immediately returned to Shu Yunci's bedroom, where Shu Yunci was brushing his hair.When Jiang Fengmin was around, Shu Yunci didn't need a silk bottle to serve her. She could only do these things by herself.

What is pampering?This is pampering.Shu Yunci's favor lies in some small details, and those who are careless will not realize it.

Jiang Fengmin came over to help her brush her hair, and saw that her underwear was loosely worn on her body, revealing a large area of ​​snow-white skin at the neckline, and Jiang Fengmin began to drool for nothing.

"It's agreed to sleep, don't mess around, otherwise don't blame me for kicking people." Before going to bed, Shu Yunci warned.

Jiang Fengmin nodded hastily.Lying down obediently, he said that he would not mess around.She really thought so, but this thought only lasted until Shu Yunci lay down.

With Xiangxiang's soft body lying in his arms, Jiang Fengmin immediately fell into a battle between heaven and man.At this time, the candle has been blown out, and the surroundings are dark, so that one can feel the breath of the person in his arms like blue.Jiang Fengmin's heart was beating so fast that it was about to jump out, and his hands finally started to be dishonest little by little.

In the darkness she heard a sigh.Then with a "plop", she was kicked out of the bed.

She climbed into bed again and was honest, hugging him to sleep obediently, and had a good night's sleep.

What exactly did Bai Jin say, Shu Yunci didn't tell anyone else.Of course, the blood silkworm who was interrogating with her knew about it, and the blood silkworm knew about the grand speech

will know.So she handed over all the outside affairs to Sheng Ci.She still needs to do things in the palace herself.

A day later, Xisui, the queen's personal maid, was found dead in a well.The queen didn't eat much for this day.When it was time to light the lanterns, Shu Yunci asked to see him.

The queen let her in, without any polite words, and said bluntly, "What does Xisui's death have to do with you?"

Shu Yunci found a chair and sat down, "Xi Sui committed suicide, I didn't force her."

The queen gasped, "This matter still has something to do with you."

"I found Bai Jin." Shu Yunci looked at the queen, "Does the empress know why Bai Jin is helping you?"

The Queen said nothing, just looked at her.

"Bai Jin is from Yan State, and the entire Ghost Gate belongs to Yan State. It's just that in Yan State, they don't call it that name. Bai Jin came to the palace to use you to seize the land of Yin State. They used Xisui to trick you , give you advice, let you see me as a thorn in your side, and find a way to get rid of me. Once I die, the next step is to get rid of the father, and then help the big brother to take the position, and then put a Gu on the big brother, and then control the whole Yin Kingdom. Empress, I don’t want to touch you because you have been deceived by others, but as the mother of the country, you are easily used by others and almost caused a catastrophe for the country. Are you worthy of your ancestors? Are you worthy of the people of Yin Kingdom?” Shu Yunci's tone was not strong, with a little bit of regret that he hated iron but could not make steel.

The queen lowered her head, tears dripping down one by one. "Ze Yin, I admit that I am jealous of you. But who in this palace does not envy you? The emperor handles the affairs of the court all day long and rarely enters the harem. We women can only watch and wait for the king to show mercy. And The emperor's most time and greatest love is not given to any concubine in the harem, but to you! Have you ever thought about the sorrow of the harem women? I am already the master of the harem, but in the eyes of the emperor, I am still not as good as your daughter. How can you make me not hate you?"

Facing the queen's accusation, Shu Yunci didn't care at all. "The fate of women in the harem is like this. The queen can't bear it. How do you let the other concubines live? If the queen wanted to be harmonious, why did she marry into the royal family? The queen enjoys the support of the whole country, and the family is extremely rich and honored. , but now you say that the deep palace is lonely? The road is chosen by yourself, no one forces you."

The queen nodded, "Yes, it's the path chosen by Bengong himself, no one else. So what are you going to do? Want Bengong to commit suicide? I won't. As long as the emperor doesn't abandon the queen, I will remain It's the queen, and my natal family is still the most powerful relative."

Shu Yunci got up, "Zeyin never thought about abolishing the empress, the empress is too worried. This Zhaoyang Palace, Zeyin will not have a chance to come here again, and there is one last thing he wants to say to the empress, the reincarnation of heaven, the sins I made, Even if the retribution does not happen to me, it will harm my children." After she finished speaking, she left, leaving the queen alone in shock.

Emperor Yuanming asked Shu Yunci about the matter of Zhaoyang Palace.Shu Yunci did not hide anything, and told her father the truth.Emperor Yuanming was furious, and he was about to abolish the empress, but his eyes were on Shu Yunci.Shu Yunci didn't move or speak, just left his father there.

There was no other way, Emperor Yuanming had no choice but to pull back the words himself, "Zeyin, you see, it will be your birthday soon, and it will be your birthday again, so it's unlucky to abolish the empress at this time. Isn't it?"

Shu Yunci smiled and said: "Whether the empress is abolished or not depends on the will of the emperor. The son will not interfere, and there is nothing difficult to appease. The father does not need to take care of the son."

Where can I find such a caring daughter?Emperor Yuanming was moved to tears, and wanted to kiss his daughter in his arms.

"As soon as the father is old, the daughter is already grown up." Shu Yunci said coolly.

Emperor Yuan Ming had no choice but to let go of his hand in embarrassment.It's all because Shu Yunci didn't grow up before, he always treated his daughter as a child, but now that she has grown so much all of a sudden, he can't change the habit for a while.

In the early court on May 25th, Emperor Yuanming issued an imperial edict to appoint Shu Yunci as the empress dowager, the future heir, and move into the East Palace from now on to participate in all affairs of the court.

When the imperial decree came, the whole court was shocked.Even if a few old foxes have expected it long ago, they still have to pretend to be surprised at this time, so that they can be grounded, right?

Afterwards, the imperial decree was issued to the whole country, causing controversy wherever it went.

There are many discussions.This is all something later, the most important thing at the moment is that this imperial decree directly caught all the officials by surprise.Today is Shu Yunci's birthday, the Jiji ceremony during the day and the palace banquet at night have all been prepared long ago.The gifts given by the officials were also prepared long ago, but after the imperial decree, the princess became the heir apparent directly, so the original gift seemed light.But the original gift is already the most affordable thing in the family, and now it needs to be more expensive, where can I find it?Antique shops and jade shops in the capital were all snapped up.Many officials who reacted slowly slapped their thighs for not grabbing good things.

But tricks are what people think.Everyone thought that since there is no way to improve the quality, then make a fuss about the quantity.There are plenty of people who double, double, even triple, or even triple the number of gifts given.Anyway, it's for the future prince, and it doesn't hurt to give as much as you want.

Shu Yunci was sitting in the Huanyu Palace, and she was being moved outside.Zhong Zhaoyuan was so frightened that she almost fainted after hearing the imperial decree. It took her a long time to comfort her mother before she calmed down from the fright.The situation in the harem is stable, and with Concubine Shen taking care of her, Zhong Zhaoyuan should not have to worry about her safety, and she can move out with peace of mind.

Hearing the news coming in from outside, Shu Yunci sighed: "You talk about these officials, they don't put their minds to the right place, they only think about these things. What do they think of me? A Bodhisattva in the temple? Burn incense sticks and send Can some melon and fruit snacks bless them?"

Si Ping laughed amused by this metaphor, "Princess, you are much more useful to them than Bodhisattva."

The Jiji ceremony was completed under the witness of all the royal family.The greatest gift of Shu Yunci's adulthood is to gain the future hermit country.Her height at this time is no different from that of ordinary people. Looking slender and thin, some members of the royal family can't help but comment, can such a delicate person afford the future of Yin Kingdom?Did the emperor take some risks this time?

No matter what other people said, Shu Yunci still completed his Ji Ji ceremony.Emperor Yuanming personally handed over the seal of the Empress Dowager to Shu Yunci, and Shu Yunci knelt down to accept it.From this moment on, she has become the second most powerful person in Yin Country, and can already influence the future of Yin Country.

After the ceremony, she went directly to the East Palace.Almost all her belongings have been moved.The rest are those scrolls and the rewards over the years.In addition to the rewards and presents this time, Emperor Yuanming directly sent two maids in charge to check the warehouse.

Shu Yunci didn't care about these things, she took off her heavy dress and headgear, and felt much more sober. "Fortunately, this kind of thing doesn't need to be worn every day. If it weren't for that, I wouldn't be the crown prince."

Si Ping handed the gowns and tiaras to the little maid for safekeeping, and asked Shu Yunci to show the clothes that were ready for the evening palace banquet.The clothes for the evening are light styles, without so much burden.

Shu Yunci glanced at it, and waved her hands to let Si Ping take off the clothes. She usually doesn't care much about such things, as long as she dresses decently.

Considering that tonight because of the palace banquet and she is the protagonist, she should be tossing around until very late, so she took advantage of this moment to practice Guiyuan Gong alone in the inner room.In fact, she really doesn't like this kind of palace banquet at all, but she will not be absent every time.Because she is going to be the emperor, there will be many such things in the future, even if she doesn't like her, she has to learn how to deal with it.

She wanted to be emperor, but she never wanted to do whatever she wanted.She just wants to give an explanation to this country and this era.

Before lighting the lanterns, officials of the fourth rank and above in the capital brought their families into the palace one after another.Emperor Yuanming held a banquet in front, and Concubine Shen Gui hosted a banquet in the Biyan Hall of the harem. The queen came out to deal with the situation, and soon returned to Zhaoyang Palace.The officials and family members are all human beings, knowing that the queen has existed in name only, but after the emperor is not dethroned, everyone can only watch.Right now, the most powerful people in the palace are Concubine Shen and today's birthday Princess Zeyin.

The palace banquet started, and everyone's eyes were focused on Shu Yunci.Tonight she was wearing azure palace clothes, she was still as calm as before, but she had more smiles on her face.

The wives are not easy to come forward to talk to, so they all send their daughters to make connections.Most of these official ladies had no friendship with Shu Yunci, and Princess Zeyin had a strong aura, and before she could speak when she came over timidly, she was so frightened that she ran away after Shu Yunci took a look at her.Even the brave ones don't know what to say after coming over to say hello.

they

Suddenly, they found that the topics that ordinary women like, they can't talk with this Princess Zeyin at all.What they cared about were jewelry and clothing, rouge and gouache, or gossip in the back house, but Shu Yunci didn't know about these, and was not interested at all.

At this moment, there was only Sheng Ci sitting beside Shu Yunci.Seeing another butler lady being scared away by Shu Yunci, Sheng Ci couldn't help but said: "Princess, everyone is here to congratulate you on your birthday, why do you put on such a posture that strangers don't get close?"

"Do I have it?" Shu Yunci also wondered, why everyone is afraid of her like this?She can't eat people? "I'm always like this."

Sheng Ci picked up a plate of jujube cake on the table, "Eat a piece."

Shu Yunci turned her head and said in disgust, "It's so sweet."

Sure enough, she looked a bit childish like this, and the officials who were paying attention to her thought that Princess Zeyin was quite cute.

A clever lady came over with a plate of lotus leaf soup, "Princess, this lotus leaf soup is fragrant and pleasant, please try it."

Shu Yunci found out that Sheng Ci had tricked her, so she couldn't help but glared at her.Sheng Ci was not afraid. He lowered his head and took a sip of sour plum soup. Oh, it's so sweet.

As soon as he was inspired, many ladies from the official family immediately brought the cakes on their tables to Shu Yunci, and Shu Yunci almost flew to the roof.

"The kindness of the ladies is appreciated." Shu Yunci waved his hand, and the ladies immediately retreated.

Sheng Ci at the side was watching the excitement, when suddenly he heard Shu Yunci say: "Miss Sheng Si, the sour plum soup in your hand seems to be good, and this princess wants to have a sip too."

A lady next to her saw that there was sour plum soup on her table, so she wanted to bring it over, but she was too frightened by Shu Yunci's stern eyes to move.

Sheng Ci looked up and saw Shu Yunci's playful smile.She shook her head, lowered her head and brought over a cup of sour plum soup next to her.

Shu Yunci took a sip, frowned, so sour!

The two were very close, and said solemnly: "The princess is so cruel."

Shu Yunci said: "You don't come here, it's not because you plotted against me first."

The monarchs and ministers each made a move.But obviously Shu Yunci's move is more powerful.At this time, every family is trying their best to win the princess's love. The little-known fourth lady of the Sheng family is so appreciated by the princess, and the hatred is instantly drawn to the fullest.

Jiang Fengmin was sitting on the roof of Biyan Hall, and a few big inner guards passed by from time to time. Everyone was used to such a woman in black and black gauze. They knew it was Princess Zeyin. Everyone just pretended not to see it. To and fro when she was completely invisible.

A banquet was tossed until it was set to disperse.After all, Shu Yunci drank some wine and felt a little dizzy. Si Ping managed to help her back to the East Palace. As soon as she entered the door, she felt her hand lighten. Shu Yunci had already been hugged by Jiang Fengmin.

Si Ping breathed a sigh of relief, "With the princess here, the servants can rest assured." Si Ping led Jiang Fengmin to a small room behind the bedroom, and Jiang Fengmin was surprised to find that it was a pool for bathing. "The maidservant is going to prepare to change and wash clothes, I'm here to help the princess."

Jiang Fengmin admired Si Ping's knowledge and interest.This girl has a future.

Jiang Fengmin looked at the dense water vapor in the pool, reached out to test the water temperature, it was just right.She put Shu Yunci on the soft couch beside her, and looked down at her drunken appearance.

Shu Yunci was not drunk enough to pass out, and he knew that Jiang Fengmin was by his side.She struggled to open her eyes, reached out and squeezed Jiang Fengmin's face, "I'm drunk, are you happy?"

Jiang Fengmin is so helpless, it's all like this, can't her Yunci be a little confused?

"What do you think I will do?" Jiang Fengmin asked.

Shu Yunci smiled innocently, "Do whatever you want."

Jiang Fengmin's heart skipped a beat.She wasn't sure if Shu Yunci knew the meaning of this sentence. "I..." Jiang Fengmin was a little timid when the routine matter came up.
